Hey guise… so tired rite now… ):
I know I'm in NO position to say this, but I'm TERRIBLY SORRY for the late update *bows*
It's just that… whether you believe me or not, there has been an emotional distress going around my school, and you just can't help but get affected as well… /:
*sighs* It's ok guise, I'm already over it so uh… to my usual rants! :D
Arghhh… I swear school is a total bitch. When ppl say they miss school, it's NOT the homework they miss, it's getting to see their friends and classmates again… T^T
If u guise r also in or have been in high school, u'll know what I mean… TT~TT
Those aside, thank you so much for all the reviews and follows and favorites! I actually didn't expect ANYTHING to tell u the truth. BUT, I'm EXTREMELY glad that I was wrong!~ ^^
You guise brightened up my day like A LOT (I know that was lame but just SO overwhelmed at the moment!) XD
So, without further ado, let's get on with the story!~ XD

Warning!: OOC-Tsuna, and OCs
Chapter 1: Celebrating My New Life
Previously on "Until The Petals Fall"…
"M-MATTE! Y-YOU- AHHHHHHHHH!" The boy screamed at the feeling of being dropped into the black hole at the speed of a rocket without knowing when he'll stop.
The man chuckled in victory after the black hole disappeared.
"What a big fool you are, Sawada Tsunayoshi." He began to walk away as he tipped his hat. "But it's ok, we'll meet again…"
'And at that time… you would realize just how much you're going to regret your mistake.' The dark room was empty again.

... K, onto the story :D...
Tsuna groaned in displeasure. Falling at the speed of god-knows-how-fast AND not knowing
when you're going to land is horrifying, but to land HEAD-FIRST on the hard wooden floor?
*sighs* Not cool bro…
Tsuna slowly lifted his head as he opened his eyes. "Ite… Where am I…?" He quickly took notice of his surroundings. A neat but extremely short desk came into view in front of him; there was also a small closet on his left. The room however, looked quite old overall.
Then, as he struggled to get on his feet, he realized just how short he became.
He blinked, then walked as fast as he could to the closet's mirror (which wasn't fast at all, mind you), which was right behind the door of the closet.
"…Hoh crap…" He gaped like a fish out of water as he realized that he looks like a 3-year old. Well, at least he was dressed quite nicely at the moment, if you consider a butler suite good looking. To add as a finishing touch, he even had on white hand gloves.
While contemplating on what the FUCK happened to his body, he didn't notice the rushing footsteps running up the stairs.
"PEASANT!" A girl similar to Tsuna's age yelled out loud. She had long, smooth, flowing dark raven hair up until her chest with some curls at the tip of her hair. She was wearing a cute light pink dress that tightly bounded her slim features and it reached almost to her feet. She has a pair of large, cocoa colored eyes and long, mesmerizing black eyelashes and small pink lips. In all, she was absolutely stunning for a 3-year old.
Tsuna was quickly snapped out of his train of thoughts as he turned around in confusion. First of all, who is this girl that's standing proudly against the door? Second, if this girl is calling him "peasant", is her personal butler? After all, it would make sense judging by the cloth he's wearing. And finally, was that ENGLISH he heard her speak in?
"Y-yes?..." He hesitantly replied, in English of course. 'So the first word spoken to me here is "peasant". Great, life just CAN'T get any better than this...'
The girl glared harshly at the reply. "What do you mean "yes"? Has your puny brain sunk so low as to forgetting your social position?" She quickly walked towards Tsuna and grabbed his arms roughly and brought him close to her face. Usually, Tsuna would've dodged that, but considering how confused he is right now, he didn't notice until the girl started speaking. And boy, does that girl have strength! Tsuna swore that she almost tore off his limb! He tried to wriggle himself out of her grip, only to fail miserably.
"Don't you DARE forget how you even managed becoming my personal butler and that I have every right to fire you… You wouldn't want THAT to happen to you, right?"
Snapping out of his fears and confusion, Tsuna immediately act out his role by getting down on one knee and bowed his head. "As Milady's personal butler, I sincerely apologize forgetting Milady's humble position. I do not know what has gotten into me at that moment. I shall receive any sort of punishment as to atone for my sins."
"That of course, goes without saying." The girl sighed as she started to walk away, to which Tsuna took as a queue to follow. "Also, the punishment will be doubled as you are late for accompanying me to my birthday party."
Tsuna wiped off his sweating forehead and instantly relaxed for being able to play his "butler" role to the girl's liking.
'So it would seem that I'm this girl's butler… Unfortunately, she just had to act like her social status… As well, judging by that girl's accent, I can assume this is somewhere in Great Britain… How ironic… Speaking of which, is it just me or is this girl genius in speaking English? The last time I checked, 3-year olds have JUST started to speak in sentences... But more importantly, the second this whole fuss is over I need to start training, ASAP.' Tsuna inwardly sighed; all of the training he painfully endured from his previous world has totally gone to waste.
"You…" The girl stopped abruptly as she froze on the spot, in which Tsuna immediately sensed and looked up. She turned and gave him a scornful look. "Don't you dare forget that you were nothing more than a filthy rat on the streets before I picked you up."
"O-of course not Milady." Tsuna instantly bowed his head, to which the girl smirked, fully aware that Tsuna noticed the action.
She turned and continued walking down the enormous hallway.
'It would appear that my parallel self's past was more towards the tragic side… I'll have to find out what happened…'
"PEASANT! WE'RE HERE!" The girl literally yelled in his ear. "*sighs* You should feel honored that I even bothered reminding you."
Tsuna cringed at the volume of her voice. 'Oh god… this girl sure can yell…'
"I am truly honored by your sympathy Milady."
'NOT.' Tsuna inwardly groaned at having to take care of this spoiled brat in front of him. He quickly pulled the handle of the big oak door in front of him while bowing.
The girl gracefully walked into the room, her head held high.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICOLE/MILADY!~" Everyone in the room shouted, old and young had on either happy or proud faces.
"WOW! You guys did this just for me?" She glanced at Tsuna and smirked a little, who is now standing behind her. "Thank you so much!~"
A middle-aged blonde man wearing a handsome tuxedo walked towards her and ruffled her hair gently. "Happy 3rd birthday, my daughter."
"I am honored, father." The girl did a little courtesy with her dress.
A woman soon came up to them, presumably her mother. Strangely, the woman is wearing an elegant piece of Japanese yukata. "We are so proud of you Nicole, not only have you already brought pride into our family at such a ripe age, you are also everything a parent would wish their daughter to have."
"I do not deserve such kind words, mother."
The woman laughed sweetly. "Now now, this isn't the time to be shy. Today is your party and you should enjoy it to the fullest." She turned to her back and faced everyone else. "Everyone, on behalf of the three of us, I thank everyone for taking care of my daughter and hope all of you will continue to do so."
The three bowed to everyone in front of them, to which everyone immediately did the same.
"Now then, I announce the start of my birthday party!~" Everyone cheered and began moving around, mostly towards the girl now identified as "Nicole".
'At least I now know the name of my Mistress… Speaking of names, I don't even know what MY real name is in this world!... If I even have one that is...' Tsuna inwardly sighed as he stood behind the massive crowd surrounding Nicole. 'Also, now it makes sense as to why Nicole has some Asian features regarding her hair and eye color… But… why is it that I have this dreaded feeling towards her mother?...'
He shook his head, thinking it's not important. "Honestly, is everyone else also going to be calling me "peasant" or something-
"GET OVER HERE AND DO YOUR DUTIES PEASANT!" To which most people in the room either didn't bother to give him a glance or gave him a look of disapproval.
'*sighs* my last ray of hope for everyone else being more sympathetic was TOTALLY ruined…' Tsuna inwardly sighed as he quickly walked towards his Mistress.
"Apologies for having you kept waiting Milady."
"Oh, god… I'm done for…" Tsuna mumbled tiredly as he plopped on his bed, which proved to be quite uncomfortable.
'This girl can seriously win the award for "Most Sadistic Slave Driver"… Honestly, I can't believe she's even worse than Rebo- '
"Reborn…" Memories of Reborn being slaughtered instantly came into play, reminding how weak and utterly useless he was at that time.
He turned and rolled over to his side as he curled his body to provide extra warmth.
"Damn it… I'm NOT going to cry this time!" Clenching his teeth and hands, his tears betrayed his words as they trailed down the side of his cheeks. He stayed in this position for what seemed like hours. After that, he finally wiped off his tears and calmed down his nerves.
"Minna… How's your life like in this world?..." He mumbled as he closed his eyes, trying to get some sleep.
But with the constant nightmares that are going through his mind, it wasn't until much sweating, turning, and grunting that he finally fell asleep.
However, the true abyss lies within the dream…
Somewhere far away in an unknown dark room, there lay a small, round wooden table. There was a simple white vase on top.
And there it was, a simple yet sophisticated black rose lay inside the vase.
One petal fell from the rose...
Total Petal Deceased: 1
Significance: Beginning of Life
Ok, I'll admit, this chapter sucked CRAP. T.T Totally not worth reading cuz even the authoress is telling u guise how sucky it is… I KNOW I TOTALLY RUSHED THIS… Guise, so sorry but lately, with all the emotional depression going around life, writing fanfics just TOTALLY got ignored. I know, what a horrible excuse for a late update, but please do believe me on this. );
That aside, next chapter will be more about Tsuna's current position in the family he's working in and what duties he does as Nicole's personal butler. Yepp, made a bitchy OC so that everyone could start hating on her for bullying poor Tsu-kun (*cough* says the one that decided to even make that character *cough*). There will also be more information regarding Tsuna's past in this parallel world. Maybe info regarding the girl's family background as well if I'm in the mood. Yeahh, I know it's A LOT of OCs to be accepting at once, but hey, that's a way to make everything MUCH more interesting!~ (;
Don't worry guise! You'll eventually see Tsuna's guardians and Reborn, this story does take place in the past as Tsuna is only around 3-years old (or is he? Hmm...). Note the word "eventually" (X
And guise… Of course Tsuna is OOC after all that he went through… You'll understand why later.
Finally… Remember guise, REVIEW= INSPRIATION= FASTER UPDATES! XD
K, till next time guise~ ^^
Ciao ciao~
