Vongola Headquarters

"Now now Gokudera, Ryohei." Takeshi chided, as he watched the two guardians arguing. After all these years, they still enjoyed screaming at each other, and from time to time, fighting. Which was no good for the house help...That's probably why the maids liked Yamamoto so much, because he could talk them down before they made a mess of things.

He felt his phone vibrate in his suit pants pocket and took it out, his ever-present smile slipped out of place for a moment before he turned and started to sprint off, giving a quick "Sorry!" to the maids as he went.


Outside of Namimori

After Shinyuu had given him his daily beating, and Shizu added insult(and more injury) to injury, Honoku lay their for a moment, in his pained stupor, staring at the crack in the sidewalk that Shizu had left on the ground.

"You're just as pathetic as him. Even more so... Decimo shouldn't have waited this long. Dame-Honoku, I hope you're ready." came an oddly squeaky voice to his left.

"Wh-who?" he tried to turn his head and failed miserably. A second later, Nero was at his side and he was being lifted. A shamed blush filled his cheeks as his friend oh-so-effortlessly lifted him. Nero was just fall enough that Hono's feet hardly touched the floor as they walked. Guess he was just as pathetic as the voice (he was dubbing it his subconscious) said he was.

Soon, he felt another body against him as Ayachi joined them. "Yeah, I could tell. His punches were...harder than usual." Honoku admitted. Was it strange to be able to tell the difference in someone's moods by their punches? Normally, he would feint going to his face and get him in the gut, like a cat playing with a mouse...

"Hahi! We had homework?" forgetfulness at its best...

Outside of the Sawada household

Haru hummed to herself as she did the laundry and bopped to the music on the radio.

"And here's the newest single from the up and coming pop idol, Firefly! It's called I'll see you soon 'Mio amore del cielo!"

Haru was so into what she was doing that she didn't even notice the giant bird place a familiar looking baby onto the grass beside her. After hanging up a few of Honoku's shirts (which, oddly enough always seemed to have red stains. He must really like ketchup on his school lunches!) she turned around to see a blue haired surprise.

"H-hahi?" she squeaked, kneeling beside the sleeping toddler. Well, this was odd...he certainly looked familiar. Something told her that she should get up and run away, or call Tsuna, but then the little one gave a yawn and she just melted.

"Hahi, aren't you the cutest thing?" She scooped the angel up into her arms and brought him inside.

She was sure Honoku wouldn't mind it if she put him in his bed to rest.
