Meeting
"Hey, did you hear?"
Tsuna turned around and cocked his head sideways in question at Kyoko.
"About what?" He asked. Kyoko's eyes sparkled with excitement as she leaned in closely.
"Apparently we have transfer students coming in." She whispered conspiratorially. The youngest of the pair looked at her, eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
"But it's in the middle of the semester…" He trailed off for a moment and narrowed his eyes teasingly. "Is that why you're dressed so nicely today?"
Kyoko blushed but didn't reply, hastening her pace to the classroom and leaving an amused Tsuna to follow behind her.
Just as they sat down, the teacher came in and clapped her hands excitedly.
"Alright class! We have two new transfer students today! One's from Italy…" The students broke out in excited chatter about having a foreign student in class. "…and the other is from Hokkaido." She raised her voice slightly above the noise level, pausing to fix a stern look at the class. "Let's all be nice to them ok?"
When choruses of "yes ma'm!" responded, she smiled warmly and walked over to the door, ducking her head out the hallway.
"You two can come in now."
Tsuna found himself staring at the two transfer students with curious wonderment. A slight buzzing rang in the back of his head, but he found himself pushing the feeling back absentmindedly. The room suddenly felt a lot warmer… and not necessarily in a bad way, he thought.
He broke himself out of his thoughts as the younger of the two transfers – a small, petite girl – smiled tentatively and slowly wrote out her name in small, rounded characters on the blackboard. Tsuna switched over to observe the other transfer student, and with a start, found himself staring into a pair of intense, green eyes.
Well, that was embarrassing, Tsuna thought as he averted his eyes, cheeks tinted in pink at being caught sneaking looks at the transfer students. He looked up tentatively, and with relief, noted that the other transfer student had looked away and wrote his name on the blackboard as well.
"I am Dokuro Chrome," She blushed a pretty pink when the entire class focused their attention on her. "I-it's nice to meet you."
"Gokudera Hayato."
The students waited to hear the rest, but instead Gokudera fixed the students with a stare before moving himself down the aisle and slid gracefully into the back corner seat, lips pursed in resolute silence.
Note: Annnnd, they're all together! (Ok, I know Mukuro isn't actually with them yet, but he'll be in the next chapter ;) Also, before people think I've forgotten Lambo, I haven't! I promise. I have something special planned for him.
Also, this chapter was not supposed to be out today but my dad's friend decided to set his alarm for 7am (and it went off at six times, I counted)… so, since I was awake, I decided to finish this chapter.
AND EXAMS ARE OVER. SCHOOL IS OVER. Which meeannnsss, more time to write!
So, quick question. How interested are you guys in reading a prologue-type chapter to this? It would be about the last moments of Tsuna and Vongola Decimo Guardians, and potentially slightly angsty. I have the idea running around, so if enough people are interested I might write it out.
Hope you guys enjoyed. ^^ Review? It motivates and keeps my muse excited.
Ama~
