Tsuna sat at his desk and let his head hit the surface of it when the bell rang. Usually Tsuna was one of the first people out the door to head home. But today he knew something dangerous was going to happen at his house. Because if Hibari was going to be at his place Tsuna wanted to be far, far away. The head perfect seemed to be extra violent when Reborn was around.

There was a hand on his shoulder and Tsuna looked up to see Yamamoto and Gokudera looking at him with concerned eyes. He smiled weakly at them as he stood up.

"Guess it's time to head home."

Tsuna sighed and Yamamoto grinned at him.

"Ah what's wrong Tsuna missing your parents already?"

Tsuna partly laughed and partly snorted. The only one of his parents he missed was his mom. His dad was insane and a bully. There was no doubt in Tsuna's mind how Reborn and his father were friends.

"I wish."

Tsuna half mumbled. Gokudera's face fell his worry showing more than before.

"Its just that earlier I told Hibari that Reborn wanted to talk to him, and well I really don't want to be there when those two are in the same house."

Gokudera smiled cheerily at him.

"You don't have to go home."

Tsuna thought about it and stood up and gathered his things.

"Its just I have nowhere else to go. I don't have money, and well-"

"You can come over to my place."

Yamamoto chipped in.

"Really?"

Tsuna asked a look of pure hope on his face.

"Yeah my dad wont mind."

Gokudera looked angrily over to Yamamoto and then smiled back at Tsuna.

"Yeah I'll go too."

"Okay."

While the three of them headed over to Yamamoto's place, Hibari walked furiously to Tsuna's house. To talk to the man he considered the devil in a fedora. He wasn't happy that the man Reborn thought Hibari needed permission from his parents to do anything. To sign anything. To be anything. Just thinking about it made Hibari so ticked off the people walking around him could feel it. Making them extra nervous and jumpy around the already agitated teen. So that by the time he finally reached the house he had gotten into five different fights and bit ten other random people for being too weak to exist in his mind.

Hibari didn't knock on the door, instead he glared at it, willing the wooden contraption into nonexistence. Reborn, weather he sensed the murderous vibes in front of the door or not, opened it and smirked down at the pissed off teen.

"Hello Hibari."

Hibari's glare intensified tenfold.

"I see you didn't bring your parents like I wanted but why don't you come in anyway?"

Without saying anything Hibari shoved past Reborn into the house and threw himself onto the sofa he had previously slept on. Putting his feet up on the coffee table and crossing his ankles as he continued to glare at Reborn.

Reborn walked over to him and dropped a packet of paper at his feet on the table.

"I needed you to bring them since you're a minor and it's against the law to have you sign this without their consent."

"Hn like I'd ever ask them for anything."

Reborn looked curiously at the teen.

"Well they still have to sign this as well as you."

Hibari speed read the document to make sure he wasn't signing anything ridiculous. To his surprise he couldn't find anything wrong with it.

"Where?"

Reborn hummed in question to the not so question like statement.

"The signing."

"Right."

Reborn took the document and flipped a few pages then set it back in front of Hibari.

"One of your parents must sign here, and you sign there, plus initial here, and here."

Hibari held his hand out and Reborn placed a pen in it. Then to the older mans shock signed someone else's name in the guardian section and proceeded to sign his own where he was supposed to.

"That's illegal Hibari."

"Sue me."

Reborn smirked and crossed his arms as he stood over the violent teen. He knew something interesting was about to happen with this teen. And Reborn couldn't help but think to himself.

'One down.'

Tsuna and Gokudera stood in front of the sushi shop with shocked expressions.

"You live here?"

Tsuna finally asked. Yamamoto's smiled seemed to get brighter as he nodded.

"Yeah it's my dad's shop. We live above it, and sometimes I help him out with the shop and stuff."

Gokudera shook off his shock first and went back to scowling at the baseball freak.

"I bet your old man does everything so you don't screw it up."

He looked away as Yamamoto laughed.

"Most of the time yeah. He doesn't want me to make anything inedible."

Tsuna nodded in sympathy.

"Neither Reborn or I can cook. It's been nothing but instant noodles and take out since my mom left."

Tsuna looked off into the distance.

"Ah what I wouldn't do for some of my mom's cooking."

Gokudera shrugged.

"I haven't had a home cooked meal in years. The last time I did it was my sisters cooking and she shouldn't be allowed to even look at things that belong in a kitchen."

Tsuna looked sad for a moment then light up.

"I know once my mom comes back from her vacation with my dad I should introduce you guys to her. She always loves cooking for a lot of people. When my cousin's I-Pin and Fuuta come to town she goes all out."

Yamamoto swung his arm around Tsuna's shoulders as he started to walk into the restaurant.

"That sounds great Tsuna but for today we can eat leftover sushi from the shop."

"Hey don't leave me out here."

Gokudera shouted as he hurried to follow them into the shop.

"Welcome to- oh Takeshi its you."

Tsuna guessed the man behind the counter was Yamamoto's father. He kind of looked like the baseball player but older.

"Are these friends of yours?"

The older man asked while smiling politely to the two new comers.

"Yeah. Dad this is Tsunayoshi Sawada, and Hayato Gokudera. Guys this is my dad."

Tsuna smiled and bowed slightly to the older man. Gokudera waved his hand in greeting. And Yamamoto took all these as signs of the three getting along.

"Well dad we're going to be in my room if you need anything just call."

He led the other two up to his room. Grabbing some sushi, and tea on the way.

"Sorry if it's a bit messy."

He apologized as he opened the door to let them in. Tsuna couldn't help but laugh.

"This is nothing compared to my room."

He said while laughing. Gokudera looked around and shrugged. The three of them shoved some of the stuff side and sat on the floor around the small table in the room. Yamamoto took one look at the things on the table then slid his arm across it to shove everything off.

"There!"

He exclaimed happily as he set the food down and sat. The three of them talked about school and homework while they ate. When they were done Gokudera said he would help them do the actual homework. Even though he looked and acted like a delinquent in front of the teachers he was way smarter than anyone Tsuna or Yamamoto had ever hung out with. So they took the offered help gladly.

After a couple pf hours they finally finished everything, and Gokudera even helped them with their extra credit work. Since Tsuna was barely passing everything and Yamamoto spent so much time with baseball he was too.

"Finally we're finished."

Tsuna sighed as he laid his head against the small wooden table. Yamamoto rested his head on the table too and nodded against the wood.

"It was a lot more than I thought."

He laughed a little and closed his eyes. Gokudera leaned back on his hands with his legs stretched out in front of him.

"It was a lot of homework."

He looked around the room and spotted the blue fender Stratocaster leaning next to the only window in the room. Tsuna peeked up at the other quiet teens and spotted Gokudera gazing at something. He turned his head to see what it was and sat up.

"Hey Yamamoto I didn't know you played the guitar."

Yamamoto lifted his head and looked at the blue guitar as well.

"I don't really. I only know the basics, I can barely even play one song."

Gokudera smirked.

"Let me see it."

Yamamoto got up from where he was seated and retrieved the guitar. He handed it over to the silver haired teen who looked around the messy room. Once he spotted the amp and plug he pulled both back with him to where the other two sat. Gokudera handed the electrical plug to Yamamoto who plugged it in on the wall behind him.

Tsuna watched curiously through out the whole thing. He tilted his head to the side as Gokudera tuned the instrument with a pick he produced from his pocket.

Both Tsuna and Yamamoto watched in silence as Gokudera took a quick deep breath then began to play. They were shocked with how good he was. Yamamoto's face was shocked then fell back into his lazy smile. While Tsuna watched Gokudera in awe. The silver haired Italian finished a song and looked up at the two of them.

"I play a little."

He mumbled. Tsuna clapped his hands and grinned at his friend.

"That was great! What song was it?"

Gokudera looked down at the guitar in his hands, embarrassed to be praised for playing.

"It was Already Gone by Crossfade."

Yamamoto laid back on his floor and smiled up at the ceiling.

"I've heard of them. Can you play any other songs?"

His eyes turned towards Gokudera and he scowled at the tan teen.

"Why?"

He asked sharply. Tsuna looked nervous as he felt Gokudera get angry.

"You play really well can you play something else?"

Gokudera smiled at Tsuna and nodded.

"If you want."

Yamamoto went back to smiling at the ceiling. He knew Tsuna could get Gokudera to play another song.

Gokudera started the next song and Tsuna smiled to himself. He knew this one word for word. When it was time for the lyrics to start he began to sing.

I will dedicate

And sacrifice my everything for just a second's worth

Of how my story's ending

And I wish I could know if the directions that I take

And all the choices that I make

Won't end up all for nothing

Show me what it's for

Make me understand it

I've been crawling in the dark

Looking for the answer

Is there something more than what I've been handed?

I've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer

Help me carry on

Assure me it's ok to

Use my heart and not my eyes

To navigate the darkness

Will the ending be ever coming suddenly?

Will I ever get to see the ending to my story?

Show me what it's for

Make me understand it

I've been crawling in the dark

Looking for the answer

Is there something more than what I've been handed?

I've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer

So when and how will I know?

How much further do I have to go?

How much longer until I finally know?

Because I'm looking and I just can't see what's in front of me

In front of me

Show me what it's for

Make me understand it

I've been crawling in the dark

Looking for the answer

Is there something more than what I've been handed?

I've been crawling in the dark

Looking for the answer

Gokudera was so shocked to hear Tsuna sing he nearly stopped playing. Yamamoto sat up from laying down to watch the shorter teen sing. His eyes were closed as he sang the words he knew so well. When the song ended and Gokudera stopped playing Tsuna realized what he had been doing. And opened his eyes slowly to see his shocked friends expressions.

Okay well that was a really long chapter and it wasn't only because of the lyrics I put there. The song isn't mine its Crawling in the Dark by Hoobastank. Sorry this one took so long to get done hope you liked it. Please review!
