Author's Note: Hisoka is living with Hibari... Okay!

Disclaimer: I do not own Katekyo Hitman Reborn.

I head to the convenience store to buy food for today's lunch and dinner. Somehow, I ended up living with Hibari, Kyoya. It actually simplifies things for me though. I don't have to worry about much from here. It'll be good until Onii-chan, Ken, and Chikusa get out. A little boy runs up to me suddenly. "You seem like you're doing well," he says.

I smile. "I am, Onii-chan," I reply.

The boy laughs. "So you noticed already?"

"Of course. I'm your little sister," I say. I smile. "It looks like your 'mother' is looking for you though. Shouldn't you head back?"

"I suppose so… Take care of yourself, Hisoka," he says as he starts to walk back to his "mother." I nod and walk into the convenience store.

"Oh, you're here again?" the manager of the convenience store asks.

I smile. "Yup! It's nice to see you again, Manager-san," I reply happily.

"You sure come here a lot now. Did you move closer?" He's a really friendly guy who gives me a lot of discounts and freebies all the time. I'm pretty sure that it's because I come here almost every day.

I nod. "I'm living closer to here for now," I reply.

"That's nice. Hey, if you ever need a job, feel free to ask me okay?"

"Okay!" I say happily as I pay for the food that I picked up. "Have a nice day, Manager-san!" I walk out. I smile happily as I see Hibari standing next to the entrance of the convenience store. "Oh, were you waiting for me?" I ask as I tilt my head to the side a little.

"No," he replies.

"Okay." He's lying, but I just smile anyways. "Is Salisbury steak okay for dinner tonight?" I ask as we start to head back home.

"Hiiiiie!" someone exclaims in surprise from behind us. I glance at Hibari with wide eyes. He looks back at me with his usual expression and we turn around to find Tsuna with his mother and Fuuta.

"Oh, Tsuna-san, Fuuta!" I greet with a smile.

"Hiiiiieee! She appeared!" Tsuna continues to shout in a panic. I wouldn't be surprised if he started to run around in circles around now.

I turn to Fuuta, who unlike Tsuna, greets me with a wave. "What's going on, Fuuta?" I ask.

"Tsuna-nii seems to be a bit scared of you, Hisoka-nee," Fuuta replies. "I told him about how you helped me though…"

I smile. "Thank you." I turn back to Tsuna. "Tsuna-san, why are you so scared? Isn't it a bit shameful to be scared of someone like me?" I ask. My voice is innocent and I find an expression to match it.

"Oh, what a cute girl. Is she one of your friends, Tsu-kun?" Tsuna's mother asks. She seems oblivious of her son's panicking.

"Kind of," I reply with a smile. "It's nice to meet you, Mrs. Sawada!" I say. I bow a little. Suddenly, my eyes widen as I realize something and I turn to Hibari. He looks so annoyed right now... "Should we go, Hibari-san?" I ask. I take his irritated expression as a yes. "Ah, sorry for leaving so abruptly, it was nice to see you again, Tsuna-san, Fuuta." I bow a little before heading off with Hibari.

"Hmph, herbivores," Hibari comments as he we walk back home. He seems a little annoyed.

"Sorry," I say. My eyes widen again as I thought occurs to me. "Do you think that Tsuna-san started to freak out because what I said sounded weird?" I ask

"Hm?"

"I asked you if Salisbury steak was okay for dinner… Must have sounded weird…" I explain. I bet that he was thinking of something weird. I laugh a little. "Oh well."

I eat lunch with Hibari. It's quiet. Suddenly, someone comes in. I smile at the older male with the regent-styled hair- Kusakabe. "Hello," I greet.

He looks a little startled for a second, but then he says, "Good afternoon…"

"You seemed a little surprised. Is something wrong?" I ask.

He shakes his head. "Sorry. I always get a bit startled when I see you here…" Kusakabe admits.

My expression shifts to a confused one, but I don't say anything else about the topic. I guess that it is a bit weird that I suddenly started to stay with a person who doesn't really seem to care for other people, but… I decide to leave at that. It helps in my situation, so why should I question it? "Would you like some lunch, Kusakabe-san?" I ask politely.

Kusakabe smiles at me. "Oh, thank you."

"I ate it all," Hibari replies.

I look at Hibari blankly and then think about the food still sitting in the kitchen. Huh? What's he… I decide to play along with Hibari since I don't know what he's doing. "Maybe next time then," I say to Kusakabe with a smile.

Kusakabe nods. "I've finished the preparations for Hisoka-san to attend Namimori Middle," Kusakabe reports. Hibari nods. Oh, that means I'll be able to see Tsuna and the others in school again, but…even though I acted as though nothing happened earlier today, I kind of wonder if they'll still be mad at me. I wonder if they can forgive me. I feel a bit of sadness starting to appear again. I hope they can forgive me, even after all the things I did and the things that I said to them. At this point, I feel like laughing at myself. Even though I always act so innocent, I shouldn't have such naïve thoughts. No one would forgive me after what I've done. I wouldn't even forgive myself.
