A/N: A redo of the one-shot "I Like You Too"

Actually, I'm redoing the whole entire thing. Man it was ugly and stupid. Hope you like this new version :D

Tsuna had a very strong feeling towards Kyoko. And it was just a short time before he would go ahead and confess. But, it all ended when he saw her at the mall.

"Oh! Hey, Kyoko!"

He called out to the surprised brunette whom was sitting on the bench near the fountain. She smiled and waved to him. Happy, he quickly walked over to her.

"So! What are you doing here?"

"Oh you know, shopping mostly. I'm with-"

"With? Who you with? Haru or Chrome?"

"None of them, it's this guy I met," a slight blush crept up on her cheeks and she fiddled with her thumb. Tsuna could literally hear his heart break. It sounded like a glass piece shattering to a million pieces.

"…Oh. Who?"

"Michael."

"A-American?"

She laughed, shaking her head.

"No, British. Oh, look he's back."

Tsuna quickly turned around, suddenly angry. How dare a teenager whom Kyoko only met could go on a date and make her feel this happy? He had known Kyoko ever since middle school started. All that hard work…

"Hello, Kyoko! Ready to go?" He offered the hook of his arm, and with Kyoko giggling like a love-struck girl, they walked away chattering.

Tsuna was left there, sitting all alone. He thought that nothing would get better from there. Oh how he was wrong.

"Y-Yes, Ken. Chikusa. I'll be back in an hour, I just need to shop for necessities.." A quiet Chrome muttered into her purple cellphone. Angry shouting from Ken telling her to hurry up could be heard by people one foot away from her. Smiling a little, she said a quick goodbye and hung up.

She didn't expect at all to find Sawada-san there.

"B-Boss!" She exclaimed, capturing the attention of Tsuna. He smiled and waved her over. He sat deep in thought, filled with anguish and sadness.

"I-Chrome.. I don't know what to do anymore."

This concerned her greatly. A boss who didn't know what to do was worse than a boss who did poorly at the things he does. Also, he was her friend. Sort of, she thought.

"Would you care to talk about it?" Chrome asked quietly, afraid Tsuna would lash out at her.

"If you would like to listen, then yes." He weakly smiled and began to start where the whole thing had started. His feelings for Kyoko.

2 Years Ago ( I am making this up, not accurate)

"I-I'm scared, Mommy! Middle school seems so scary.."

"Don't be! It's just a journey that everyone goes through. You'll make tons of friends, I'm really sure of that."

Tsuna gulped, he tightened his hold on his backpack handle and tried to stroll in calmly. And right when he made it through his classroom's door successfully, he tripped and fell flat on his face.

He got up painfully, rubbing his nose softly. A soft, twinkling laugh made him turn towards a certain student's desk. It was a cute girl with loving and soft eyes. Her name, as he learned later, was Kyoko. And thus began his unrequited love.

A month after

"K-Kyoko, would you like to do this project with me?"

"Sure, Tsuna-kun!"

They had gone back to his house to start on the atom project. It took many tries and hot glue gun burns, but they had successfully made an A+ project. Kyoko laughed at Tsuna's glued together hands, and he laughed at her glued together hair. That was the only time they ever had such fun. But, after 6th grade was over, they slowly drifted apart. Kyoko started having more friends, guys and girls alike, and Tsuna was left alone again.

"I just want to be close to her again, you know? I mean..we aren't close.. anymore."

He was shortly then introduced to his beloved guardians, and he wasn't alone again. He didn't know that Kyoko felt guilty ditching him for her new friends. But when she saw him having fun with his guardians, she immediately felt relieved.

True love needs to be let free, after all.

Chrome sadly knew that Kyoko once had feelings for Tsuna. She had told her at the shelter when they were fighting the Millefiore. They were talking about being trapped in the future, when Kyoko suddenly blurt out that she once loved Tsuna. Luckily, he was out training that day.

TEN YEARS LATER

"I loved Tsuna. He was so sweet. So innocent, unlike some boys in our class. At first, I thought of him as a little brother. But I started seeing him different.."

"!" Chrome sat there shocked, on the bunk bed. What would this mean in the future? A slight pain stabbed her heart. She knew that Tsuna loves Kyoko. Would they.. be together?

"I know you are surprised, Chrome-chan. I found out a year ago, when I was jealous that he was so close to Haru. Imagine that. Me, being jealous!" She laughed, with no humor in her. After calming down a short while later, she continued on with her story.

"But you know, I don't want to hold him back. I know that I should never tell him my feelings, because of what I think will happen. He will hesitate to involve me in anything.. also and try to protect me. I might sound full of myself, but what if he did like me back? It would be better, if I kept this locked away."

"Sasagawa-san.. You are very selfless, you know?" Chrome said, relieved yet guilty at the same time.

"Thanks, Chrome-chan. Perhaps you should chase after him."

"W-What?"

PRESENT TIME

"Is that what happened?" Chrome asked, reconfirming her thoughts. Kyoko had truly moved on, what did it mean for Tsuna then?

"Yes.. she just went with another man. It would be better that way, but I feel as if I want to fight for her. You know?"

"T-That would be brave of you.. I suppose. But you might hurt her, because she would have to choose between a childhood friend and a newfound crush. Would you want to hurt her, Boss?"

"Chrome, I don't know. I've loved her since sixth grade. She's been with us through thick and thin. What other girl would understand the kind of hardships we've been through?"

"…I see. Bye, Boss. I-I have to go."

"Chrome? Wait, hold on!"

She couldn't bear it anymore. How could Boss not notice that she was there all along? Perhaps he just sees her as a guardian. As a friend, nothing more nothing less.

Would she just be stuck like that forever?

A/N: Alright! I hope you enjoyed it, and please review. I decided to make this a two-shot. I mean, you wouldn't want an UNRESOLVED story right? Good :D
