Author's Note:

Still Kyouya story but more KHR! cast will make appearances. Sorry if you think the end of the last chapter was weird. I have my reason for that. This Kyouya is not the invincible Hibari Kyouya of KHR! so he will not be the same. His OOC is necessary for give more real feeling in the story. Mainly focusing in Kyouya but the Ackerman will make their appearances too. Maybe not in this chapter but Xanxus will appear in this chapter. Again, I'm sorry if he was too OOC. This Xanxus is the one who was raised with the love of family so he will behave differently from the usual Xanxus from KHR! More KHR! Cast will be appearing in this chapter.

Chapter 3: Of Teacher and Student

"Okay, this will do for now. You lucky that it just a small fracture, simple bandaging will do. Just done overwork yourself and it will heal in just a few days I guess. I can't really predict your healing pace yet but I can give rough timing. Just make sure to check with me to make sure that it heals in place and fully," said Dr. Shamal, the infirmary doctor.

"Well, I'm glad that it was nothing serious. You really give me some fright back there Kyouya," sigh Dino. Kyouya just glare at his homeroom teacher. Dino just put his hands in air in defeat as apology.

"Well, since the hands that injured were your dominant hand, I guess you will be excuse from school for the day then. I call Kenny and tell him about this," at the mention of his father's name, Kyouya was panicking.

"Don't give me that face, you should think before you did this in the first place. And I do know about the all incident from this morning, Kenny ask me to keep an eye for you and right after I just finish talking with him, you come with that," said Shamal. Kyouya just pout at him. Shamal fetch his cell phone and speed dial Kenny's number. While Shamal calling, Dino sit at a chair near Kyouya.

"So, care to tell me all about this? I kinda stuck in here. Little help, please?" ask Dino. Kyouya just ignored him and look the opposite way from Dino.

"No," snarl Kyouya. Dino sigh in defeat. When Kyouya in this foul mood, nothing will ever budge him. 'Well, I can always ask Shamal about this' thought Dino. He never likes to resort to information gathering from another person like this. He prefers to hear it from the person itself but Kyouya not a person who would speak to another s about himself. He's more to keep to himself mostly. Not for long, Shamal then enter the infirmary again.

'Okay Kyouya, I call Kenny and he said that Xanxus will be coming to fetch you. 'Till then, you will wait here. Don't be thinking about snooping out infirmary like the last time. You giving me a heart attack if you go missing from place that you supposed to be. At least left me with a note before you go," inform Shamal in stern voice. Kyouya pout when Shamal mention that Dino will be looking after him.

"Dino, can we talk for a moment? If you don't mind, outside please," Shamal motioned for Dino to talk outside. Without wasting time, Dino walk out from infirmary with Shamal. He has so many questions to ask anyway to the infirmary doctor.

"I know you have so many questions regarding Kyouya so let cut the chase. Well, before I work as a infirmary doctor here, I was a doctor in local hospital specializing in children. Kyouya was one of my patients due to his unique condition. His situation is not what I will call disease but rather special condition. You know like albino, dyslexia and something like that." Explain Shamal.

"Well, Kyouya condition is a bit tricky than those. I never encounter anything like him before and I'm sure there's no one like him so it quite hard to do any references. Kyouya body is far weaker than kids his owns age. What I mean here is physically, his immunization is the same like normal child but his physical is too weak or simple word is fragile and delicate. If I would compare him to anything, he easily injured like glass or ceramic from fracture." Dino gulp from hearing what Shamal told him.

"But what amaze me is despite his delicate body, Kyouya injury especially external one heals faster than normal human. He heals at the rate twice or thrice from normal human. Even his body is fragile and delicate, his healing pace is amazing. He never had any life threatening injury yet but I hope we never get to that point." Dino was once again speechless. He didn't know how to address this situation.

"It's true that he heals fast but he experiences more pain than most people due to his sensitivity What normal people feels as a prick from thorn, he feels like being stab by pencil sized needles. He experiences quite a trauma from pain since childhood. One of the side effects from the trauma is Kyouya having difficulty to express his emotion. It appears that his brain shut down his emotion so he will not be heavily affected by the overload sensation he received. And what worst is that he have a twisted personality as you may notice" Sigh Shamal.

"Well…wow. Sorry it's quite a bit to accept all the information at once but I kinda understand the last part easily. Doesn't he have a counselor or something? I mean it sound like a serious stuff." Ask Dino. From his understanding of the situation, it sound like serious and need immediate attention. Shamal just chuckle at that.

"Well, actually we do. But Kenny is almost giving up from the amount of psychiatry and counselor he hired that quit already. None stay longer than a month or two. The longest I would say about is about six months? Kyouya apparently make it his ambition to drive other people into misery so they know how he feels. Somehow, letting Kyouya into fights may not be a healthy thing but it does the work to let him put the steam off. As Kenny put it, as long as there's no one who had permanent injury or dead, let him do what he want," explain Shamal.

"That sound like an excuse and he give up so easily," stated Dino.

"Yeah, it does but you forget that this is Ackerman that we talking here. They will never give up. Once they set themselves, they will do it to the end. But they don't do it like other people do," shrug Shamal. Dino nod to acknowledge it. He still didn't feel good about the whole thing.

"Hey, since you already in this, can I ask you for a favor? You can walk out if you don't want to. It's up to you," ask Shamal.

'I guess this is the first time that I had to be the one that fetch him from school. Since father or Levi who usually will fetch Kyouya from school. Since they are busy, that left me to do the 'chores'.'

In front of school gate, Xanxus walk into the school to search for infirmary room. Despite Kyouya had been in Namimori Middle School for three years, not once Xanxus had ever step his foot here. Due to his busy schedule, Kenny and Levi are the one that handle everything about Kyouya. It's not that he didn't care about his brother but Kenny was too overprotective sometimes. Especially with his unique body condition, it didn't help that he's the youngest. So

"…where is the infirmary in this school?" ask Xanxus to himself. He was sure that he had come across the same hallway for the third time already or is all the hallway looks the same? He didn't know anymore. During his silent musing, apparently he had lost. Now, if only there's someone who he can ask direction to. Unfortunately to him, there's no one in the hallway as every student are in class.

"Excuse me?" suddenly there's a voice behind him when he was busy pondering the option in his mind. Turning around to the said voice, Xanxus was met with a long-haired silverette woman? No man. He was perplexed with the said person as he doesn't know what to think about his appearances.

'He doesn't look like student but he looks quite young as a teacher? And that hair was it dyed? Why would it be colored in that color? Was it allowed? Why would he keep his hair long like a woman?' think Xanxus.

"Yes?" answer Xanxus after a while. The silverette raised one eyebrow as if noticing the awkward answer. He slips his hair behind his shoulder before asking.

"I can't have you wandering around without business here. Sorry but it for safety purpose," explain the silverette.

"Infirmary, I come to fetch my brother at the infirmary. I received a call earlier that he was free from school today and was told to fetch him."

"Names?"

"Kyouya Ackerman."

"That Doll Face?! Usually Levi or Kenny will come. You are another of his grumpy brother then?!" Doll Face?

"Yes, apparently," being call grumpy doesn't faze him much. He knows that they are indeed grumpy.

"This way then, you must have bad sense of direction if you lost this far away. By the way, I'm Squalo. Superbi Squalo, gym's teacher, home-economics teacher and sword club's coach," introduced Squalo. Xanxus can't comprehend how he can be a gym and home-economics teacher at the same time. Those things don't mix with each other.

"Xanxus Ackerman, novelist" answer Xanxus. Squalo turns around to face him with disbelief. He knows that most people had a hard time believing him as a novel's writer. He had endured his own shared of prejudiced and hard time when he was new in the business.

"Never expect that you for the type you enjoy such thing. You look like you will be in the same page as Kenny but I guess Levi will be a good influence too. What genre?" asks Squalo interest. Xanxus was surprised by the genuine interest in his tone.

"Fantasy, horror and mystery genre is my forte. I write mystery horror mostly. Kyouya love them," answers Xanxus. He didn't know why he spends his time having small talk. He was never the one who likes to have small talk. The most social talk he had were discussion with his editor, exchanging opinion with other's writer and his family mostly. He feels comfortable talking to this androgynous teacher.

"Huh…let me guess, you start writing because the Doll Face?" ask Squalo suddenly. Xanxus abruptly stop his step. At his sudden stop, Squalo turns around to see what cause him to stop.

"Did I say something that upset you?" ask Squalo. He was never the type who beat around the bush. Everything is straight to the point and blunt honesty. Sometimes his friends say that he was too rude.

"No, just surprise is all. I never expect that it was too obvious. And will you stop calling him Doll Face. Kyouya is a decent name," said him with a hint of blush on his check. Not much but it's there. That earns him a laugh. Xanxus just glare at the silverette for his act.

"Sorry, sorry. Never take you as a sensitive guy. Sheesh, you Ackerman never ceased to amazed me. Well for the nickname, you really can't blame me you know. Ever you really have a look at him? Give it a try especially when he was daydreaming. He was so expressionless that it's kinda creepy sometimes if he was looking at your way. After that you tell me if he doesn't have doll face,"

Loosen up his face from mustering the angry glare earlier, he give it a thought at the silverette's word. 'I guess he does have a pretty and expressionless face. Kyouya express his emotions in his eyes but not his face so I guess he does look like a doll that way' Small smile slowly crept in his face without his knowledge.

"You do love him aren't you?" asks Squalo. He notices the small smile but decide not to mention it.

"He really was lucky to have such an adoring brother like you. Well, he does need all the attention or he will drop dead from lack of it," laugh Squalo. He does experiences a number of 'accidental incident' when he was Kyouya's gym teacher. That kid is too fragile like a china doll, gave him panic attack more than necessary during his care.

Xanxus chuckle at the thought. It does true that Kyouya need a lot of care sometimes. He was thankful that there's another person other than his small family cares for his brother too. Hearing Squalo laughter makes him a bit happy? He doesn't know this warm feeling that he get from hearing him laugh. Looking at Squalo one more times and seeing him laugh well heartily, yeah. Xanxus had decided that he does love seeing the silverette happy.

Author's Note:

Yeah, another chapter is finish. Originally the chapter was supposed to end with Xanxus fetch Kyouya home but I think this ending looks nicer. Sorry for the late submission. I have been redoing this chapter a couple time as I can't seems to get the right plot for this chapter( for further notice, I don't plot this story at all so if you think there's some sort of inconsistency, forgive me as I write this story on whim and mood. Mostly mood believe me.) When I managed to get a plot ready, my laptop hard disc collapsed and it takes a few weeks to be repair. To top it all, I nearly lost all my data in my laptop. After a few tweaking and begging (I know the computer store owner) I managed to salvage as many document and files that I deem important for my studies. Luckily, my stories are among the salvaged. And now I'm able to continue writing.

As for the next chapter, I don't have the plot ready but just half of it. Don't know how to continue the rest. Anyone has request? I'm thinking of introducing Levi or Mikasa story next. Which one do you want to read first? Each of them will have their own story after all but I need to finish the character introduction first. Write in the review who should I write next for character introduction, Levi or Mikasa? After all the characters have been introduced, I will set the chapter into part as Kyouya arc, Xanxus arc etc. They will be randomized as all the stories are happening at roughly the same timeline. I intended to make the story centered among the Ackerman siblings only but since the story was named Ackerman Family, maybe Kenny needs a pairing too. Any suggestion? The old man needs someone to take care of him too after all the unsuccessful relationship, he deserve some love too. Well, see you in the chapter. Pray that I have mood and times to write faster or this story will not be updated in a long time. I hope not but I know myself.
