Boys

A small beam of light glowed dimly in the dark space.

Footsteps and the jangle of keys echoed through the silent hallway loudly, and with rush of hushed whispers, the light disappeared. Seconds later, the door opened with a resistant creak. The janitor poked his head in with a sweeping eye and, satisfied, closed the door. He walked down the hallway, his footsteps and the jangle of keys slowly fading until the hall was completely silent.

"I need to pee!" Lambo jumped out from behind the desk, jumping up and down as fast as his little body could. Several hushing sounds responded as heads slowly peeked out from behind the desks and out of the closet, looking around cautiously as if afraid the janitor would pop out of nowhere.

"Lambo, come here. I'll take you." Tsuna offered as he held out his hand. "Ah, I can take him. I need to go to the bathroom too." Kyoko said as she stood up, stretching out the kinks from huddling inside the closet. Tsuna smiled gratefully and nodded. Yamamoto grinned and waved him over to the table, excited to start their boys' night.

Silence ensued.

As if orchestrated, the boys slowly turned to look at Kyoko owlishly. The orange-haired girl grinned and waved, moving to the side. Chrome peeked out and smiled, waving shyly at the group.

Tsuna blinked. Then chaos erupted.

"—Kyokoyoucame! I am so excited! WaitIswearIdidn'ttellherabouttonight."

"—What are you guys doing here? It's an all-boy's night."

"—Arara, Chrome, you could've just asked."

Bam!

A loud slam on the table stopped the loud chatter. Ryohei made to say something else, but a glare from Kyouya quickly persuaded him otherwise. A pissed off Kyouya was someone that Tsuna, and only Tsuna, could deal with.

"What are you guys doing here?" Kyouya asked calmly, only the slightest hint of irritation seeping through. Tsuna discreetly laid a hand on his elbow, trying to calm him down. When he felt the other lean into him slightly, he smiled and turned his attention back to Kyoko and Chrome.

"Like I said, we want to join! It's only two more people." Kyoko huffed, crossing her arms defiantly. Yamamoto crossed his arms behind his head and shrugged, "Well, we might as well. They're already here."

"Didn't I already tell you guys that they would find some way to join in?"

Multiple hands swatted at Gokudera for his comment. He rolled his eyes and simply tossed two extra sleeping bags at the girls.

A silent agreement passed through the room, and the bustle became louder as everyone went about setting up their sleeping bags. Tsuna smiled as he tucked himself in between Kyouya and Mukuro. It was nice being with the boys, but it was nicer when everyone was together.

"I still need to pee!"

Gokudera smirked as Kyoko widened her eyes and jumped out of her sleeping bag in an apologetic frenzy. Some things just never changed.

Note: Fluffy fluff fluff. My way of making up for the super angsty prologue, Connections (published separately). Let me know how you guys like it~~

Guess who the three that spoke in this fic after "Then chaos erupted" were? People who get all three correct get a small surprise~~~
