Alright, this is all I can give to you. I'm terribly sorry for the... getting worst syndrome that is showing in my chapters.
Things to note(?): I'm not sure if things would flow cannonically, seeing that I'm kinda jumping here and there... Also, I tried my best to keep everyone in character, but that's a warning that you might think differently. Enjoy!
(Please don't kill me for this... Poor excuse of a chapter?)
Class Reunion
Chapter 6
By Shiki Chama
Mr Romano raised an eyebrow as he walked out of his room, carefully maneuvering his way around the busy butlers and maids and…
Was that the chef?
"Alright, next is Vongola Ottavo's portrait! On the count of three-" A maid's voice called out, and with superhuman strength, she and two others, including the chef, lifted the portrait of the Vongola's Eight boss, Daniela.
What the-
Romano ducked as the board came through, nearly missing his head. He stared dumbfounded as the group of three oblivious employees continued walking with the portrait of Vongola Ottavo.
Tapping the shoulder of the gardener, the Italian tailor gestured to the group of butlers and maids that were wiping, sweeping and moving the sacred portraits of the Vongola bosses and their guardians. "Excuse me for asking, but what is going on here?" Romano asked incredulously, eyes widening as he saw several butlers taking off the gold plate below Vongola Decimo's portrait.
There was silence as the gardener shared the same horrified expression that was on his face. Gulping audibly, the gardener turned to the frozen tailor. "Young Master Tsuna has ordered us to temporarily… hide all the portraits of the Vongola bosses and their guardians due to the class reunion…" The man answered, voice faltering.
Romano patted his shoulder in understanding, sighing heavily.
XXX (That was so awkward. I apologize; I'm kind of still on a semi-block)
"Ah, Romano, you called us?" Tsuna greeted as he entered the lounge, flanked by Gokudera and Yamamoto.
Romano hummed in approval as he bowed towards the brunette, moving aside to show three custom made suits, with dress shirts, ties, and other accessories such as chains and belts.
Also, let's not forget the cloak, made with Leon-made thread.
"I would like you three to try on the suits I made for you. I hope it fits." Romano explained nervously, afraid that there was something wrong with the suits.
The trio nodded, moving to grab their suits. There were two changing rooms, and Tsuna quickly entered the smaller one, locking himself. Gokudera briefly glanced towards his direction, before looking at the other changing room.
"What are you waiting for, Hayato? Come on in already!" Yamamoto laughed, opening the door wide enough for Gokudera to squeeze through.
"Sh-shut up! Don't say something like that out loud!" Gokudera hissed, his eyes flickering towards the other changing room.
Yamamoto laughed, before literally dragging Gokudera into the changing room. "Come on now, it's not like we've never seen each other na-mph!" Yamamoto eyes shot open in surprise as Gokudera's hand slapped over his mouth, eyes looking at the opposite wall as though as it had a hidden camera or something.
"Would you just shut it you dumbass! Tenth is just in the next room!" Gokudera hissed, face red. "What if he hears us or something?"
Yamamoto tilted his head, scratching the back of his head sheepishly. "Haha, sorry sorry. We better start changing now..." The ex-baseball player trailed off, loosening his tie and shrugging off his jacket.
"Che." Gokudera averted his eyes, turning to face the wall.
"Hayato? What's wrong, why aren't you changing?" Yamamoto asked, unbuttoning his dress shirt.
Silence.
"Hayato?" Yamamoto asked, concerned.
"T-turn away, damn it." Gokudera flushed, nervously loosening his tie.
From the other room, Tsuna sighed as he heard his Rain and Storm Guardian started bickering.
"Ahaha, Haya chan's shy!"
"Wh-what the! And stay back! Don't touch me!"
Tsuna sighed. Married couple of the Vongola Family.
XXX
Tsuna stepped out of the changing room, adjusting his cloak.
Ugh, this is the reason why I didn't want the Vongola Tailor of all people to come and make a suit for me. I always get a cloak. And then I can't refuse if not he'll feel offended.
"Looking good, Tenth!" Gokudera smirked as he gave Tsuna thumbs up. Thank you, Hayato, for being so unhelpful.
"Haha, wow, Tsuna you look like a boss!" Yamamoto laughed breezily, eyeing Tsuna pleasantly. Said boss nearly shrieked a little. I'm not supposed to look like one!
Gokudera visibly twitched as he heard Yamamoto's comment. "Bastard, Tenth looks like a boss all the time. So just shut up, would you?"
"Sorry, sorry!" Yamamoto grinned as he raised his palms in a 'surrendering' gesture. Tsuna sighed, looking at his two guardians.
It was easy to see the differences between the two. While Gokudera wore a red dress shirt with a neat, white tie, Yamamoto wore a blue dress shirt, leaving the top buttons undone, discarding his tie for his necklace. While Gokudera had chains hanging off his belt, Yamamoto was wearing a simple leather belt with a white buckle.
All in all, Yamamoto was a tall, messy Asian (with a scar), Gokudera was a short(er), neat Italian (with silver hair).
Oh, but of course they had something common in their physical appearance.
Yes, the Vongola Crest, sewn with ten different shades of yellow thread, on the right collar of all of the dress shirts.
Did I mention that in the front gate of the mansion, there's a humongous flag with the Vongola Crest on it, and for some reason can't be taken off?
If not, how were the guests supposed to find their way to the mansion?
XXX (If you have read until here and still think I should live, give yourself a hug, because I can't give you one.)
Feliciano bit his lip as he furiously slammed on the keyboards, cursing as the moving figure on his screen fell into a pool of blood. Damn it-still can't beat Richie's high score.
Not even sparing the other screen-the screen that was wired to the camera at the main gate- the young man clicked the 'replay' button, not knowing his actions could lead to his respected boss hiding in the broom closet.
XXX
Tsuna smiled as he presented himself to Romano, keeping quiet as he let the man do some last minute changes. Gokudera and Yamamoto were already given the green light, and were now changing out of their suits. For about two hours now...
Deciding that it was the best for his sanity to just ignore them, Tsuna thanked the Italian tailor, deciding to change out of his clothes in his own bedroom.
Slipping out of the door, he silently walked down the corridor, enjoying the rare one minute walk filled with silence. That was, until a maid ran towards him, stopping in front of him, head bent low and panting hard, trying to catch her breath.
Confused and slightly worried, Tsuna waited silently as the maid continued panting in her position, bowing towards him. "Y-young Master Tsuna…" She muttered, head still bent low.
"What's wrong?" said person asked, staying calm though his hyper intuition was throwing a tantrum at the back of his head.
The young girl opened her mouth, taking in a deep breath of air before looking up.
Tsuna was stunned by the look on her face. C-confession?
"Young Master Tsuna-" She started, but was cut off. (AN: Why is it so cliché? Because I can.)
"Oh hey, so is this where the reunion is held?" A voice echoed in the mansion, and Tsuna froze.
"Ah I see, so the guests would walk through this corridor to the ballroom?" It was louder now, accompanied by some footsteps.
"Rooms are out of bounds? Of course!" The voice laughed, loud and obnoxious. Tsuna's blood froze. He was coming nearer now. Any minute now, and he would turn to the right, walk all the way down the corridor and into the ballroom.
Only problem? Tsuna was standing in the middle of said corridor.
"This way, Young Master Tsuna! Quick!" The maid said, her hair in a mess as she quickly unfroze herself, pushing her bewildered boss in the opposite direction.
She was horrified. Her face screamed 'What are you doing here?' The nearly brain-dead mind of Tsuna's supplied, letting himself be pushed away.
"So turn to the right, and no touching of any of the model weapons on display? Alright, I got that down." The voice was so much clearer, almost like it was behind him.
"Here!" The maid whispered, waving towards the door. Without thinking, Tsuna dived into the open doors, curling himself into a tiny ball, trying to occupy as little space as possible.
"Young Master Tsuna, I didn't mean the broom closet-" She was cut off again when someone entered the hallway, causing her to shut the door abruptly. Surrounded in darkness, he sighed in relief.
"Um, good afternoon to you, sir." The maid bowed awkwardly, moving to her right to hide the corner of the white cloak peeking out of the door.
"Oh, good afternoon to you too. Say, is your employer around?" The male guest asked.
"You mean bo-the Young Master?" She hastily corrected herself, scolding herself for the mix up.
"Yeah. I don't seem to see him around…" The voice murmured, looking around. Tsuna widened his eyes in shock.
That voice… It's Mochida Sempai!
End
Lame ending is lame, and if you really think that I still deserve to be celebrating my birthday next year, hug yourself, because I can't do it for you. Really, thanks so much.
I'd suggest you to start getting used to these kind of updates, since I'm not really going to get any better. But honestly, I'll really try, so please don't leave me to mope.
It's around one here, I'm going to sleep.
/should anything look canonically wrong, I apologize. I watched the anime before reading straight at the Shimon Arc from the Manga. Hence, anything before the Shimon Arc would be unknown to me.
HUGS everyone~
Oh, and the previous question here was, is Mochida part of the Mafia TYL? A lot of people answered that it was mentioned that he was part of the Vongola and it Allies TYL, but please take note that he won't be in the mafia in 'Class Reunion'.
Thank you those who reviewed me your answers! /GROUP HUG~
