Chapter 2: Roses are red and so is blood.

"Every time you kiss me….."

I heard a soft voice speak out like a song but it disappears the moment I heard it. It's so soft, so gentle that it could be mistaken as an angel's.

The scenery was a garden, it was a nice view. The green grass swayed as the wind blew on it. A white marble tea table in an open garden was a nice place to relax.

Somewhere in the garden was a gazebo with white roses veining on its top, the bushes was filled with white rose.

I blink and the scene in front of me changed.

The once white rose was now covered with red liquid tainting it. The moment I blink again, the white-red rose turned black with dried red liquid on it. I looked towards me and was shocked to see a skeleton figure, sitting in the middle of the now dried meadow; black coat is swaying by the cold wind. I felt myself shiver as the wind made contact with my skin.

I became even more surprise when the skeleton; the skull; move and turn to look at me. Eyes are nowhere to be found leaving black empty sockets. I stepped back as the piercing stare of the skeleton still on me.

I almost scream when I look at something that I stepped on.

A skeleton hand.

"Come back" said a voice and all I can do is to let out an ear-piercing shriek.

I sit up immediately; I am covered with cold sweat. The dream… it's so frightening. No, it's a nightmare. I covered my right eye with my cold palm and smile crazily.

"It's just a dream" I try to convince myself but failed, I tried again and again until I'm almost calm.

I look at the clock as it reads '4:30 a.m.'

Sighing, going back to sleep is futile. I won't be able to go back after that dream. I'm too afraid.

Standing up, I change into a tracksuit and start to jog for an hour. After jogging, it is still early, so I decided to make breakfast and some bentos to give.

I survived the school thanks to Yamamoto-san's help. He was far more kind to me… well, he was too kind to not just me but to everyone as well. We met on my third day when he decided to take suicide just because his arm was sprained and muttering about baseball gods or something like that.

Of course, I am glad I made a friend, aside from Yamamoto-san, I met Sasagawa kyoko-chan and Kurokawa Hana-san on my first day, they were quite the opposite but I still enjoy hanging out with my girl friends.

Smiling as I finish 5 bento boxes. 1 for me, 1 for Yamamoto-kun, 1 for Kyoko-chan, 1 for Kurokawa-san, and 1 for Hibari-san

After I met my friends, we decided to regularly eat on the rooftop where we noted that Hibari-san takes his afternoon nap there. We have avoided the constant biting when I gave him my bento. And from that day on, it's a hobby to cook for 5 people every day. It's such a nice feeling cooking for someone.

Starting up my morning hygiene, I brush my teeth and take a cold bath. I still remember the dream. It was quite disturbing. I turn off the shower and start to get change into my school uniform.

I was about to head out when there was a knock on my door.

"Coming" I shouted as I grab my things and open the door only to see Yamamoto-kun out there smiling as always.

"Good morning Tsuna-chan!" he greeted me so cheerfully. I let out a smile and greeted him back

"Good morning too Yamamoto-kun"

"Maaa~ I told you call me Takeshi"

"I-I know T-Takeshi-kun" I said face flushing trying to spell out his name. strange his name feels good to say.

"There! Hahaha! It's not that bad right?" he said.

The walk was peaceful when we reached the school. We head to our shoes locker and then to the classroom.

After a few more minutes, the bell starts ringing. We was expected our teacher to enter, but to our surprise, the principal along with Hibari-san and Kusakabe-san entered the class room.

"Good Morning, we have a special announcement to make" Mr. Principal said as the class erupted to murmurs.

"Hey hey, Tsuna, what do you think is it?" yamamoto whispers and I gave him an –I don't know- look.

"Next week, we will have a 3-month field trip to Italy" kusakabe-san said.

"Italy?!"

"For real?"

"Wow! I can't wait"

Said some of my classmates as I look outside, mesmerize how the clouds floats freely on the sky. It's nice to be free, wandering around without having weird dreams every night.

I ignored all things that are happening and I haven't even noticed that the class ended.

Sighing, I grab my shoes and head out to where Yamamoto is.

"Sorry Tsuna-chan, seems I can't walk you today, I have some errands to do at the field" Yamamoto smiled apologetically

"It's alright Yama-Takeshi-kun, I can walk home alone" I smiled to assure him that there's nothing to be worried about.

For a second his eyes flash in darker shade of brown and turns seriously

"Be careful" he said and walks off.

Shaking my head I walk home alone.

"It must be a hallucination" I whisper to myself.

Not too far away I heard screams.

Being the curious me, I rush up to find Hibari-san standing not too far away from the beaten figure.

He turns around toward me and I saw his once white shirt tainted red. Flashback of the dream I had starts coming back at me. I clutch my head tightly, eyes widening in shock.

Blood...

It was blood...

It was someone else blood that tainted those beautiful white roses.

"Please don't go!" said a voice.

I open up my eyes to see blurred images, but I can make out a long spiky blonde hair and a black coat. Her face was blurred though.

"Please wake up" she cried. I look around to see red stains on the green grass.

"Please don't go" she said shaking someone, I look at the figure.

"Come back" she said as she keeps shaking a pale blonde hair man.

"Please" the voice spoke more desperate as her cries falls on the deaf ears.

"Alaude... please" she cried.

Groaning, I slowly open my eyes just to close it again. The light causes my eyes to go like blind state. After regaining some adjustments, I slowly reopen them to see blurred outline.

I turn at my right to see the same outline I saw earlier. Involuntarily, I tried to reach up to him. This seems to gain his attention as the blur figure turn to me and stop moving.

I spoke in a hoarse voice.

"A-Alau….de"

Then all went black.

AN: Thank you for reading the update! So Tsuna know the name Alaude... so I wonder who the figure is. I know that you guys think of who it is. Anyway, the trip to Italy is in the next chapter.

Please stay for more and leave a review

Jaaa~
