Chapter II: Heart Breaks and New Love?
"I think the colors are clashing." My brother commented as he adjusted his body slight left and right completing a 180 view.
"Giotto-nii, I think it looks perfect." I stated, my voice was laced with enough sugar to make black coffee taste like milk tea. I was playing Assassin Creed III: Liberation on my newly gained PSVITA. A lovely gift (read: bribe) from Giotto for me to accompany him to the suit stores.
This designer store, Armani, to be exact- marked the two-hundredth store we've been in.
Looking for the perfect wedding suit.
Why not just shoot me now and put me out of my misery?
"B-but Tsuna! I need this to be PERFECT!" He exclaimed, throwing his hands up. The poor assistant beside him, cringed as he narrowly dodged the arms. I sighed again, casually pressing down buttons as the main character maneuvered through the snowy terrain.
Oh look! Optional Objectives- kill and skin five animals. I can do that before heading back to Boston.
"TSUNA!" A loud voice broke my concentration. I got mauled by the bear that I was trying to kill.
'Desynchronized' flashed red on my screen. I clenched my jaw from yelling.
Because this is a high-end store. Armani. Very High end. Only the richest of the rich can afford it.
Giotto, being the CEO and Head of Vongola Corp. -the largest and richest corporation in the current era- can afford such luxuries. Vongola is also known as the Vongola Famiglia, the most powerful and deadliest Mafia Famiglia there is- ruling the underground since 1600.
Alaude is the boss of the CEDEF aka the External Advisors of Vongola, and a lady killer.
They thought I'm still oblivious to the fact that my brothers, their fiancés, and their friends are part of the Vongola.
Well, they thought wrong.
But I really don't want the 'over-protectiveness' to go to a whole other level.
"Yes, nii-san?" I gritted out, as I was back in square one of my check point, 'Should've gotten the checkpoint there.'
"You're not listening." He stated. I looked back up from my screen and saw him standing there, glaring at me, with hands on his hips.
"I am." I totally am, "I love the colors, nii-san. It matches your eyes."
I really wanted to leave. I really do. I want to go home and play ACIII- with a widescreen and actual controllers. It's so much easier to jump across tress with a controller than buttons without grips.
"I have been wearing the same suit for over five minutes." He stated, his voice devoid of any emotion.
Oh, he's mad. He's using the 'boss' voice on me. Time for an ego boost.
"I was just thinking that you look so ravishing in that suit, Alaude would probably jump you the moment he sees you in that suit." I stated in monotone.
In reality, saying that just makes me want to cry and sob about how life is so unfair.
"O-oh… really…" He replied dumbly. A light tint of pink lightly formed in embarrassment. He looked in the mirror again and started talking to the once-ignored assistance.
Now… time to hunt down that bear! The main character quickly maneuvered around trees, and other types of forest occupants until he reached the lake where -oh hey, would you look at that- two bears in the water, playing.
I smirked evilly at the screen, Payback time! Time to skin you alive~!
"Wow- that's some scary smile you have there, Tsunayoshi." A new voice commented. I look up at the newcomer from the leather sofa, and quickly clenched my jaw from squealing like a rabid fan girl.
It's Alaude. In a black designer suit, with a loosen tie and slightly ruffled hair, like he's been combing through it.
'He is my brother's fiancé. Do not jump him.' I commanded myself. I opened my mouth, and the first thing that came out was-
"I'm trying to kill and skin a bear alive, you need to be evil for that job."
Someone, put a brick wall up so I can bash my skull up.
Alaude looked at me, with a hint of amusement in his eyes. I really just want to pounce on him.
Twenty-two years old, and already sexually frustrated. I might be hitting my mid-life crisis sooner than I thought.
"Alaude? What are you doing here?" Giotto asked in amusement as he stepped out of the changing room in his normal clothes. When did he get changed?
"Oh just looking around." He replied, his tone was lighter.
They say love changes a person, so… when's my turn, guys?
I tuned back in and I nearly gagged. I could feel my heart breaking even more.
"Oh Alaude~, I didn't know you were so romantic." Giotto swooned. Swooned.
They were flirting.
Flirting.
In front of me. I swear to God, I could see a pink background with floating roses and its pedals behind them.
I quickly exited the store, trying to avoid the scene. Because really, who would stay and watch as your older brother and your unrequited love flirt? A masochist maybe, but I'm not one…
Or am I…?
I walk down the street, which was unusually empty for a street with stores and a big mall. It's still better than inside the stuffy over-price store.
Then I bumped into a person, specifically a man. An unknown man.
"Oh sorry… I wasn't paying attention." I said, as I got up. I offered an arm to the collateral damage from my internal musing.
"Oh it's fine." His bright happy blue eyes stare into my eyes, "I'm Yatamaru Tetsuya."
"Sawada Tsunayoshi." I replied back. This is a new friendship, don't screw up.
He look me over, checking for injuries, and then he saw-
"Is that the new PSVITA?!" he asked in wonder, his eyes sparkled with excitement.
"Yes…?" Unsurely, I answered back. It's quite popular… to a degree. Though not as famous and popular as the 3DSi and everything that comes with it. Do you know how hard is it to find a case for PSVITA compared to a DS?
Really.
"What games do you have?"
"I only have one game…"
"What game is that?"
"ACIII: Liberation." Time for a rejection.
"No. FUCKING. WAY! YOU'RE AN AC FAN TOO?" D-did he say what I just think he exclaimed.
This time I got excited-
"YES! YOU TOO?" I asked for confirmation. My heart was beating wildly with excitement.
"DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IS IT TO FIND AN AC FAN HERE?!" He replied back.
"Tell me about it. My brothers hates it for some reason." It's true. Every time I talk about it, they have this irritated expression on their face.
"Wow. Sucks for you, I still-," He begin to say, before a shadow loomed over me.
A new voice, filled with hostility toward my new friend, jumped in, "Who are you?"
"Yatamaru Tetsuya, sir." He replied, his voice cracking in fear. Poor guy- he looks like a terrified puppy with his blue eyes and brown hair.
"Go away." Two simple little words that sounded like a death threat. My new friend disappeared quickly.
I pouted at the newcomer, which I would never do if I was in my right state of mind.
"ALAUDE! You scared away my new friend!"
Alaude look back, his eyes lost its playfulness and now filled with hostility, "Let's go, Tsunayoshi." He harshly grabbed my arm, and proceed to drag me to the car where Giotto was sitting. He didn't look too happy.
Did they get into a fight…? My heart did a happy jump. I quickly suppress that feeling- I should NOT feel happiness.
It's wrong.
The car ride was an interesting experience. It was quiet. Not the comfortable silence with the radio playing in the background.
It was the nerve-wrecking silence that's there after your parents verbally fought with bad words and life-threatening sentences.
I feel like the child.
The atmosphere was suffocating. Almost. Because if it was suffocating, I probably would be dead right now- not trying to jump through tall trees.
I really want to jump across trees. It's like hardcore parkour, but much more dangerous and higher possibility of death.
Yeah, I'll try it when my brothers finally deemed that I do not need a babysitter, every time they leave the house.
That's right, a legal adult and brothers still think that I need a babysitter.
That's right, both of them.
I couldn't take the tension anymore, "What happen?" I saved the game.
Giotto scoffed, "You should know, Tsuna."
I paled. Did he find out? Did both of them find out about my crush? This shouldn't be happening-
"I- I d-do-" I stuttered out. I never dreamt of a confrontation.
"What were you THINKING about leaving the store telling me? Do you know how worried I was?!"
Oh.
I breathed out a sigh of relieved, "Sorry, You guys look like you needed the space." The tension disappeared.
"Just say something next time. You had Alaude and I worried half to death."
"And who was that boy?" Alaude suddenly asked. Giotto turned so fast, I was sure that he had a whip-lash.
"BOY?" Giotto manage to squeak out. I grimaced. Here it comes-
"WHAT BOY?" Goodbye to the normal, and hello to the over-protectiveness.
Maybe falling out of love with Alaude wouldn't be so hard after all.
Author would love reviews and encouragements.
A/N: Hello new readers, my old writing style has attacked again.
Anyways, I only played Assassin Creed III on Xbox, not PSVITA. I do not own a PSVITA (but I wish I did.) SO if anyone play ACIII on PSVITA, you may correct any mistakes because I'm using the storyline from xbox one. I know that the main character in Liberation is a female.
The scene with the 'finding a case for PSVITA vs DSi' was actually inspired by my case hunt for my Samsung Galaxy Player, but all I found was iPod cases. –but I found one at the end- There was only one style for it.
Anyways, see you next chapter. and it will be longer.
