Today, luckily, our internet wasn't cut off. So I'm really happy right now. LOL! I don't know if I would be able to update tomorrow because I seriously don't know if internet would be cut off tomorrow. (Made sense?)

So yeah, in case you guys didn't notice, I update this fic everyday. Because I have a LOT of time, so why not update the fic? (Sorry that it's so short though)

Oh, and if Tsuna is OOC in this story, I guess it is really like that. Since this is an AU and all. I guess he isn't the all around Dame-Tsuna here. And if you guys were wondering if Reborn or anything mafia-related comes up, I would say no. But if it's persons like Yamamoto, Gokudera, Kyoko, Haru, etc. Maybe they would appear...

MAYBE.

Chapter 4: That Dream

(Shina's POV)

"I'll stick with Tsuna. Dame-Tsuna is just plain mean." I huffed. Tsuna is kind! He's not even that no good in his house! He's more kinder than any person I've met before.

His face took the emotion of something akin to shock or being surprised. He just stood there.

"What's wrong?" I asked him. Finally, he broke out of the trance. He snorted, then chuckled. Before I said a word, he ran off. My eyes followed him. What is he doing?

When he reached not even a block away from my house, he suddenly turned around, still running. "Thanks, Shina-san! See you tomorrow!" then did he run full speed back to his house.

I stood there, dumbfounded. My cheeks feeling chilly and my feet just frozen to the ground.

What was he thanking for? I never really done anything. He said 'See you tomorrow!' so does that mean he intends to see me again? He also said 'Shina-san' so are we friends?

Then my heart felt something warm, despite my frozen body. This is the first time I ever had a friend. I'm just really new to this.

When I could finally move, I moved the pot just by the door and got the key under it. I turned to the door knob and inserted the key, twisting it around, I opened the door to my dark house.

"I'm home." I announced, but got no reply back. Ah, this empty house again. I took of my shoes and turned the lights on. I proceeded to the kitchen and drank some warm water. I turned off the lights and went upstairs to my bedroom.

It's always like this, Mom and Dad. They were always gone, doing business.

When I reached my bedroom, I placed my bag on my desk and prepared the ready bath. I took off my socks and tie.

Hm, I should do my homework while I'm waiting for the bath.

So I did. I opened my bag and brought out my homework. I finished it, and soon, the bath was ready.

I already had my clothes and bathing needs gathered, so I entered the bathroom and washed my chilled body.

After, I dipped myself in the ready bath I made, I instantly relaxed. I though about all that has happened today.

Meeting Tsuna was really nice. He was really kind, I guess he was the first person I have ever had befriended.

When I felt the heat get to me, I stood up and wrapped a towel around me. I stepped out of the bedroom and changed into my nightgown. I dried my hair and lay down the bed.

Minutes later, I slept.

"Wahh! Wahh!" I cried. "Mama! Papa! Where are you?" I wailed. I felt so lonely, I was looking at...myself?

'No, don't cry.' I ran over to her, and reached out my hand out to her. When I tried to pat her shoulder, it just went through.

What?

"Wah! Mama! Papa!" the young me cried.

I felt so hurt. The child...no, me...I was crying. I could feel all her pain. It's weird, but I really can.

'Don't cry!' I tried again, but my voice just wouldn't reach her.

"Waaaaaah!" she cried harder than ever. "I-I'm so lo-lonely! I don't want to be alone!"

'I'm here! You're not alone!' I shouted.

"Shina-chan." someone called out. I look towards the source of the voice. A young boy, who was about the same age as the me infront of me, said gently.

The me infront of me stopped crying. "Wh-who are you?"

The young boy walked towards her. "I'm your friend! Remember? Now don't cry Shina-chan. I'm here, you're not alone."

The young boy, whose face I could not see, sat down beside her. He held her hands, placed them on his cheeks and said, "See? I'm here."

I couldn't do anything, but stare at the two.

She giggled. "Yeah! You're here!"

The boy smiled. "Wah, Shina-chan, you have pretty hands!"

"Really?" 'Shina' giggled, holding out her hands. "Do you like them?"

"Yeah! You want me to show you something?" he excitedly said.

'Shina' nodded.

The boy dragged her away, and I ran to follow them. When I reached them, both of them sat in front of a piano.

"This is the piano. It's an instrument! It makes really good music! Watch," he says as he placed his fingers on the keys. He played the tune of 'Amazing Grace'.

I listened. Despite his young age, he played very well. The timing of every note was perfect. And the music just felt...alive.

'Shina' clapped, after the performance.

"That was so cool! I wanna try it!"

"Alright! First you must know the chords of the piano!"

"Oh! I know now!"

"Then let's play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!"

"Okay!"

Then they played the piece, both of the children having fun and smiling. I found myself smiling too.

You taught me the warmth and kindness to my very cold and dark world.

Done! Sorry if it had grammatical error.

Who do you guys think the little boy is? You'll find out sooner or later!
