A/N – I have some bad news guys. This might be the last chapter for this month. My exam trial is next Tuesday and I need to really focus without any distraction. But don't worry; afterwards I would double the update as soon as I can, alright? Hope you can understand my situation…

VenomRogue: Hey there! I just want to clear something up – White Rock Shooter DOES NOT have a counterpart. In the game, she could appear on Earth as she pleases in the guise as a human singer name Sing Love. I wanted White Rock Shooter to be unique and a little different from the rest. She will appear as herself in Namimori but with a different look. Hope you understand~

Tarious123: Oh yeah! Expect a dramatic opening scene from her! XD Tsuna's guardians will not have a counterpart. Plot twist, huh? You'll find out in the later chapters soon!

tsukuyomi. Sakurachi: Thanks for your review~ His counterpart is trying his best to help Tsuna but soon, Tsuna will slowly unravel his 'true' intentions. Don't worry though; he won't be corrupt or insane. I'm happy that you enjoy my updates. I hope this will make you smile!

Oh yeah! On the side note, I found this really cool picture of Yomi and Mato in Zerochan. Mato was playing a white electric guitar with a blue star on it. So I wanted Mato to be a pro at the guitar in this story. Hope that's okay with you guys!

Alright, now that's clear let's begin where we left of, kay? Oh, warning, long ass chapter title XD

I'm sorry for any mistakes or spelling errors in here! =.='

I so do not own Katekyo Hitman Reborn and Black Rock Shooter!

CHAPTER 9

Tsuna Is A Playboy!?

Things have finally turned out for the better for Tsuna. He was finally able to enjoy his holiday without the thoughts of his family and friends haunting him. He has something to look forwards now every day. The girls frequently kept him company such as calling him, hanging out with him and even playing online games together. Not once did they let the brunette feel lonely again. They made an effort to make a trip to Namimori every single day whenever they could. Tsuna didn't want to trouble them any further so he pull on his weight and visited them at their town too. The brunette was happy to have such caring friends regardless of the gender. He realized that they are different from Kyoko and Haru in a lot of way. They were not oblivious to the surrounding and they're much more compatible towards him. He also noted that they were the first girls whom he invites them to his house without his family awareness.

At first, he was against the idea having teenage girls under the same roof with him but they didn't mind it. All of Tsuna's school's break homeworks were finish thanks under Yomi and Kagari patient tutoring. Just last Saturday the girls and him gone through their homeworks for the entire day. Normally the cute brunette would do his school work at the end of the break but with Yomi and Kagari he was able to finish them all in a day. The 2 of them were good in certain subjects and their explanation was clear to Tsuna. If a question proves to be difficult for him, they would guide him until he properly understood it. Tsuna secretly wonders why Gokudera couldn't help him like the girls. Sometimes they would even have a sleepover at his house! Of course, Saya would be there to act as an adult figure as not raise any suspicion from his nosy neighbours. While Tsuna didn't mind it after a while, he was very reluctant to tell to his family about the sleepover. He was afraid if they would disapprove of it. Luckily the girls understand his situation so they were fine with it but Mato advice him to tell about it to his mother soon. His life had become hectic once again in such a short moment. The hyper active girls such as Yuu, Kagari and Mato would made a surprise visit every now and again at early mornings.

Tsuna find himself become more and more comfortable in their presence to the point that he was now at ease taking naps on Yomi's lap, not that said girl minded. Their friendships strengthen every day without his knowing. Kagari enjoys it when Tsuna would comb her golden hair delicately, treating her like a princess. Mato would teach him how to play basketball to the point that he was slowly getting good at the sport. With Yomi, he learns to express his expressions in the form of painting. At first, his sketch could be compare to a toddler much to his embarrassment. But the green eye girl thought him everyday and everyday he improves greatly. Yuu had a habit of taking evening walks with him throughout Namimori whenever they could. Sometimes they would even stop by for some ice-creams. If something was troubling him, he would consult to Saya. The woman gave good advice and was also patient to listen to him while drinking black coffee. All in all, the girls become very important people to him. He sometimes wonders if he would ever have to tell them about his mafia relationships. He only hopes that if one day it does happen, they would understand him. Reborn and his guardians did check up on him from time to time which Tsuna would reply just for the sake of them not to press further. He could finally have some fun with his new friends and he didn't want anything to ruin that. Just this once he wants to be selfish for a while.

Like usual, today everyone hang out at his house to just relax and chill together. Unfortunately, Saya couldn't make it – she informed them that she has some work to do at school that's need to be finish before the school reopens soon. She also told them to have fun on her behalf. After lunch, which Tsuna generously cook for them which result in many compliments were thrown at him, they relax in the living room. Mato brought her electric guitar with her along to teach Tsuna on how to play the instrument. She had learnt how to play it ever since she was little and she wanted Tsuna to have some fun with it. The other watch in amusement as the poor brunette stutter with the chords. "You're getting better Tsuna-kun!" Yuu cheered. "Thanks Yuu-chan..." Said boy sheepishly reply. "You know... We should form a band or something" Kagari suddenly interrupt. "A b-band?" Tsuna dare to ask. "Yeah! Tsuna-kun would handle the bass, Yomi-chan with the keyboard, Yuu-chan can go behind the drums, Mato-chan would be the guitarist, Saya-san would be the rhythmic guitar and I will be the lead vocalist of course!" Kagari explain with a giggle. "I-I don't think that would work, Kagari-chan..." The boy said, deadpanned. Kagari pouted but then smile, she wasn't all that serious about the idea anyway. "Umm... Can I see your latest sketch, Tsuna-kun? Your sketches are always outstanding" Yomi smiles.

"I-It's nothing really. I was only able to draw like that because Yomi-chan taught me..." Tsuna reply modestly with a tiny tinted red cheeks. "Anyway, the sketch is upstairs in my room. I'll go and get it" Said boy added and was about to get up but Yomi beat to him first. "It's fine Tsuna-kun... I can go take it myself" She assures and went towards the stairs. "Hey I wanna check out Tsuna-kun's room!" Yuu exclaim and scramble up to follow the green eye girl. "Ooooh! Count me in too!" Kagari squeal and got up to follow the duo. In usual circumstances, Tsuna would be embarrassed to death if a girl would be in his room but for the past few days, he had been keeping his bedroom clean and even decorated it a little. So it shouldn't be a problem since his life as a slob is long gone. "They're sure excited" The brunette sweat dropped whilst Mato just chuckle. So he continues playing the guitar with Mato's guidance. Everything was all fine and dandy, until it was broken by a sudden piercing scream coming from his room. Panic, both Tsuna and Mato dash towards his room, hoping that no one was injured. "What's going on!?" Tsuna shouted worriedly. All the 3 girls were standing infront of his open wardrobes with different expressions; Kagari's was terrified, Yuu was shock and Yomi... Well... Yomi was just plain confused. Wait, why is his wardrobe even open? "What happened?" Mato ask curiously as she went towards them while Tsuna was looking around his room, secretly searching for any assassins lurking around. He didn't want to put the girls at any danger.

"It's a disaster!" Kagari cried out. "What is?" The blue eye girl huff impatiently. Seriously, why are they being so dramatic? Well, minus Yomi of course. But once she stood with them infront of the wooden wardrobe, she understood perfectly. "Oh..." Was all Mato could say at the moment. "I know right? It's a fashion disaster!" Kagari begin to pull her hair. 'Wait, what?' Tsuna whirl around from the window and turn towards the girls. "I know right?" Yuu agrees. "I didn't know anyone who has these many orange hoodie..." "Umm... They're not that bad you know..." The ever loyal Yomi defends. Tsuna couldn't help but face palm; all these commotion because of his horrible fashion sense? Well they are girls... "This is unacceptable!" Kagari puff her cheeks like an angry cat. She whipped her cell out and begins dialling furiously. "Hello? Saya-san? Are you still busy at school?" A moment of silent before the girl continues. "Good, because we've got a crisis here – a fashion crisis and we need to do something about it" Everyone in the room sweat dropped at the level of seriousness in Kagari's tone. With the way how she's saying is like they were in a war or something. "I-Is my style really that bad?" Tsuna frowns. None of the girls dare to say anything which only proves it. The cute brunette sniffles and lowers his head down in shame. Yomi smile apologetically to him and rub his back in a comforting manner. "Alright, it settles!" Kagari ended the call and pocketed her cellphone. "We're gonna go shopping to help change Tsuna-kun's fashion sense" Proclaim the blonde girl with a satisfying smirk. 'Oh no... Anything but shopping...' The soon-to-be-boss groan inwardly.

He never held any grudges when he's out shopping with his mother but when it comes to buying his clothes, he's just against it. He knew that improving his style would never change his status as a No-Good Tsuna so he never bothers about how he looks. But unlike him, both Gokudera and Yamamoto would always look good with whatever they were wearing which always made him feel small. "Is there really a point in changing with the way I look? It wouldn't make a difference anyway..." Tsuna sigh. "Baka, Tsuna-kun!" Said boy flinch at Mato's sudden outburst.

"It doesn't matter with the way you look – it's who are that's matter" The blue eye girl said.

"She's right Tsuna-kun" Yuu adds. "And beside, what's wrong with flaunting yourself once in a while?"

Tsuna ponders for a moment. What did he have to lose? Money isn't an issue since he's been saving quite a lot. It might be not change who he is but it could be fun going on an outing with the girls. He just needs to endure those long hours of changing clothes and looking for the right one. Because based on what he had learned, girls are very strict when it comes to styles and clothes. He just silently prays that this won't be long. "Alright then... Let's go to the mall" He said finally. The girls cheered and so off they went to Namimori's mall. Saya was already waiting for them infront of the entrance. "Let's begin with Tsuna-kun's major make over!" Mato exclaim passionately. Somewhere deep in his mind, Tsuna could already feel the regret slowly forming.

Before they went towards the clothes section, they had to determine the genre of the boy's fashion – Gothic, Punk, Rock, Emo, Visual Kei and so on. Tsuna immediately told them he was comfortable with anything loose and not too outstanding. After discussing for a brief moment, they decide for Stylish Mash Up for him. Stylish Mash Up means that Tsuna will have different sorts of clothing with different style all combine in one. The girls knew that it's compulsory for orange to be the base colour because, really, you have to be pretty dense to ignore the countless orange hoodies in his wardrobe! Much to his dismay, their shopping spree lasted until late evening. Tsuna couldn't even recalled how many clothes he had to wore to show to the girls if it's the right one for him. And by the time they were finally done, everyone was carrying heavy bags of his clothes, mind you and as they exit from the mall, Tsuna came out with a brand new look.

His hair was a bit spiky as usual but with more sleek and style. He was wearing a long sleeve white shirt with orange buttons, a gray vest with gold lining and accompany by an orange loose tie hung around his neck along with a pair of dark brown pants and a pair of brown boots and as the finishing touches, his nails were painted orange. Being the dense Dame-Tsuna that he is, the brunette had no idea that he look gave him a charming player aura.

"What a tiring day" Tsuna sigh as they head back to his house, totally oblivious to the flirty looks that was casted at his way from random girls across the streets. "Hmm... But you've got to admit Tsunayoshi-kun, it was fun" Saya smirk at the disappointed girls. The brunette couldn't agree more but his body was just too aching tired. On the side note, he was surprisingly satisfied with the result of their outing. He like his new clothes that was chosen to him by the girls and they were very comfortable not flashy. He wouldn't mind going on shopping with them again. Once they reach to his room, the girls help him to sort his new outfits in his wardrobes; Tsuna still keeps his old ones though. He plans on wearing these new clothes whenever he hang out with the girls but when he's around his family and guardians, he would wear his plain old clothes. Afterwards, Tsuna head down to make dinner along with Saya. Since it was so late already, Tsuna told them to crash at his place for the night. Luckily, they thought this might happen so they packed their clothes along just in case. "So Tsunayoshi-kun, what are you planning to make?" The black haired woman asks as she put on his mother's frilly apron. "I plan on making Italian dishes as a thank you for today" The boy beamed and starts working on the spaghetti sauce. "You're sure gonna be a great husband Tsunayoshi-kun. Not many guys would take their time to learn to cook so many dishes" Saya teases.

The brunette blushes but thank the woman for her kind compliment before the duo start their cooking. The girls were helping them out too by setting the table and preparing the drinks. His house was fill with laughter and joy, which really made him happy. Without these girls, he was sure that he would drown in his loneliness. They were the lights that pull him out from that abyss. "Is something the matter Tsuna-kun?" Mato ask, once everyone had sat down and ate their food. Mato had notice that Tsuna had been smiling the entire time. "It's nothing Mato-chan... I'm just happy to meet you girls" Tsuna admits. Mato smiles and squeeze his hand in agreement. The dinner was superb and everyone help to clean up. Since they had a tiring day, everyone decide to hit the hay early. So after saying goodnight, Tsuna went to his room. He wash his face once he had put on his pyjamas. The boy stare intently at his reflection, wondering about his dark self. Although he was a little ease with knowing the fact that he had another counterpart, he was still weary of him but found a new form of respect for him. He wonders if everyone has their own counterpart... His cell phone vibrates above the sink, bringing him back to reality. Tsuna flip his cell, checking its recent contact. It was a text message from Reborn. The text itself was simple:

To: Dame-Tsuna

We're coming home tomorrow. That goes the same for your guardians. Be prepare for our arrival, Dame-Tsuna

From: Reborn

Tsuna's eyes widen at the text message. His family and friends are coming home tomorrow!? He didn't how to react with the news. Before, he would be jumping with joy like a giddy school girl who's in love. Now he just didn't know what to make of the situation. He wanted to be with Mato and the rest without any mafia business but he guess that his short normal life had to end. He sighs dejectedly. He still wanted to be with them but at the same time, he isn't willing to let his new friends go. When Tsuna return his gaze to the mirror, his dark self appear. Much to his surprise, the boy didn't even flinch or gasp at the sudden intruder. He merely stares at the other with a wavering emotion. "Am I a selfish person...?" He whispers to the demon in the mirror. Unfortunately, he didn't give a reply or any movements to indicate that he has listened. Tsuna then decided about him; he won't be telling about his 'other self' to Reborn or anyone for that matter. He didn't seem dangerous so Tsuna thought that it's fine. He's just like a shadow – a shadow that is alive.

A/N - And another chapter is done! It's a little long so bear with me guys XD I just decide to update this before my exam trial so you won't be dissapointed. But how was it? I'm still doing some research for Tsuna's new style and looks. Get ready to meet a Playboy Tsuna very, very soon XD

So Reborn and everyone else is coming back home. What is Tsuna suppose to do? Well, act oblivious of course! He didn't want to tell to his home tutor about his recent friends in fear that he will drag them into the mafia and because he wants to keep the memories he had with the girls to himself. Although he had changed in many ways, he still wants his family and the Vongola to see him as Dame-Tsuna. He didn't want any sort of sudden harsh changes from them.

So that's is it for this chapter! I really do hope that I will get more reviews unlike previously. I love you guys and I work hard to update to you~ So I really hope that you appreciate it!

So that's it for this week show folks! Hope see you again real soon~

ShyTyrant saying bye-bye!
