Star: Hi guy this is my new KHR fanfiction. I came up with this idea a few years ago, wrote a few drafts, never finished them and let fly away like all writes do. Sinces I recently started re watching KHR again, I was like why not. I apologize for the grammar errors. I would ask my friend to beta this but she still hasn't gotten back to me on another story. Well without further adue. Please enjoy! *bows*
I own nothing except my Oc.
"Ne, do you really have to go? You could always stay with us. Mom wouldn't mind, you are like a daughter to her."
"There is nothing I can do about it, it's only until after winter break."
"Yeah but.."
The girl smiled sadly as she rested her head on her best friend shoulder. He sighed and rested his cheek on top of her reddish brown hair. The faint scent of cherry blossom and vanilla fill his nose as the two of them stared out at the rain.
"You better write."
"I will. Don't get into to any trouble while I'm gone."
The boy snorted and rolled his eyes.
"What am I going to do? Join the mafia?"
"I'm home." Tsuna said, tiredly as he took of his shoes, ready to crawl into bed and sleep for the next few weeks.
"Welcome home." Nana said, grinning as she walked over to her son and held out a letter to him. "You got a letter today.
Tsuna smiled as he took the letter from her. Just as he was about to open it, it was swiped from him. Tsuna blinked a few times before he looked around.
"Dear Tsu-kun-"
"Reborn! Give that back!" Tsuna yelled, lunging at the baby, only to receive a kick to the face that sent him sprawling on the floor.
"Why should I?"
"Why because it's important and it's mine!"
Reborn ignored his student as he walked away, reading the letter. Tsuna rubbed his face as he followed after. Winter break had ended and this was the first letter he had gotten in a while. Tsuna crossed his arms as the baby hitman looked at the letter.
"Reborn, can I please ha-"
"Saturday."
Tsuna blinked. "What?"
"Saturday, four p.m. at Namimori international airport. That's she is arriving." Reborn said as he handed Tsuna the letter.
The brunette took the letter and read over it.
Dear Tsu-kun
First off I'm really sorry I haven't written you and Nana a lot. Dad and I have been busy with the holidays and other things. I sent some pictures in Nana's letter, so you'll have to ask her for them. We got a ton of snow here. Thank god it was close to winter break when we got it! We also got a storm on New Year's so that added a few days to break! Who knew the northeast could get so much snow, I think this is the most I've ever seen. My friends and I sent snowboarding, yes Dad got me a snowboard for Christmas.
Speaking of Dad, turns out, they need him to stay in the states for at least year to work this branch of the company started. We talked it over and we finally figured it out. I'm coming back to Namimori! He talked it over with Aunt Haruka and she is going to come stay with me while he stays in the states. Unfortunately, she won't be able to come right from Kyoto but Dad talked to Nana and she said I can stay with you until everything gets figured out.
I can't wait to see you again, Tsuna and I can't wait to meet your new friends! I've missed you a lot. Although I love my new friends, they don't compare to my tuna fish.
See you soon
Misa~
P.S My flight is coming in on Saturday, January 20th. I should get there around four.
A grin spread over Tsuna's lips as he read the letter over and over again. She was coming back! He glanced at the the clock before darting up to his room, shouting about making a call.
Nana giggles as she hear Tsuna's muffle shouting. "Hehe I'm glad he is excited."
"Ne mama, who was that letter from?" Lambo asked.
"Misaki. She's Tsu-kun best friend." Nana explained happily as she went over to the sink and started working on dinner. "Her father was a childhood friend of mine. His company has been working on setting up a branch in America, so they have been there for the past few months. I remember when she came over crying, begging that I adopt her as my daughter."
Reborn listened as the woman went on about this girl. He could tell that this girl was important to both Nana and Tsuna, just by the tone of Nana's voice and the way Tsuna's eye lit up when he found out she was coming home.
"Ne Mama, do you have a picture of her?" The hitman asked.
Nana thought for a moment before she walked over to the bookcase, whipping her hands. Reborn and Lambo watched as she scanned through the books until she found a dark orange album. She paged through it until she found the most recent pictures. She walked over and sat down, Lambo instantly in her lap.
"This Misa-chan and Tsu-kun on their first day of middle school." Nana said smiling as she pointed to a photo.
In the photo was Tsuna and girl with long reddish brown hair and bright brown eyes, standing in the full Namimori Middle School uniform. Both their cheeks had a slight pink color to them as they smiled nervously at the camera. Reborn looked over at another picture, one from what looked like a day at a theme park or zoo. The two of them looked more relaxed, Misaki grinning at Tsuna while the boy rolled his eyes, still smiling as the girl tugged on his arm.
Nana smiled as they looked through the album. She gently ran her finger over a picture of the two of them at age five. The two of them were as thick as thieves, you could never find one without the other. To Tsuna, Misaki was the knight who always came to his rescue from everything, the one who dragged him on crazy adventures when Nana was just taking them to get Ice cream. While to Misaki, Tsuna was one who drove the monsters a during nap time and the prince who was always there when she woke up.
"It will be good to have her home." Nana though, smiling.
~KHR~
"I'm leaving." Tsuna called out as he left the house.
As he walked to school, Tsuna started to make a list of everything Nana had asked him to pick up after school. His mom wanted to make all Misaki's favorite dishes. She also asked him to pick up some stuff that she would need while stayed with them. Of course he thought she was going overboard with some of the stuff like a new bedding, and clothes, some of which Misaki purposely left at their house. Misaki was only stay for a few weeks until Aunt Haruka arrived.
"Then again this is for Misaki." Tsuna chuckled.
"Tenth!"
Tsuna turned around and saw Yamamoto and Gokudera walking towards him. He greeted them and the trio continued on there way. Yamamoto noticed Tsuna was in a brighter mood then usually.
"You seem in a good mood, Tsuna." Yamamoto chuckled.
Tsuna blushes slightly and rubbed the back of his head, smiling. "Actually, I got some great news."
"What kind of news?" Gokudera asked.
"My childhood friend is coming back to Namimori this weekend." Tsuna said. "She's been overseas with her dad but she is moving back."
"That is great news, Tsuna." Yamamoto said, patting Tsuna the back. "We should have a welcome party."
Well, Misaki did want to meet his friends and a welcome party would be the best way to get know them.
"Yeah, that's a great idea. " Tsuna nodded. "She's been wanting to meet you guys."
"Well then leave it to me, Tenth." Gokudera said, determined to make a good impression to his boss's best friend. "I'll make sure it the best party."
"I'll help too and I'm sure Haru and Kyoko will want to. Does she like sushi? I can ask my dad if we can have it at the shop." Yamamoto added. "What day is she supposed to come?"
"Six on Saturday."
The three of them started coming up with idea as the walked into school. At lunch, Tsuna ask Kyoko and she happily agreed. At lunch, the group started asking Tsuna more about this best friend of his, which Tsuna was glad to tell them. As Tsuna talk about, something about her sounded familiar to Kyoko. Tsuna told her that it was probably Misaki was here the first trimester of school. When Yamamoto asked why she left, Tsuna explained that her dad was the department head of a company that was expanding oversea.
"I think the place they are living is in Maine. I think Misa said Bar Harbor." Tsuna said, unsure he was saying it right.
"Wait, dose Misaki-san have Reddish hair?" Kyoko suddenly asked.
She squealed a little as Tsuna nodded."I think know the girl."
"You do?" The brunette asked, confused.
"Yeah." Kyoko explained. "A last month when me and Haru hung out, She told me about this Youtuber she stared watching. She sounded interesting so I looked her up. Her name is Alana and she does beauty videos and vlog with her friends. Her recent video in the last week have been about how her friend, Aki, is going back to home and their last week's together."
"Now I think about. Misaki did say one of her friend does a vlog." Tsuna said, recalling their photo call last night.
"Wa, now I really want to meet her." Kyoko said excitedly. "I've seen her in Alana's video. She's really cute and she seems like a nice person."
Tsuna smiled. He could see Misaki, getting along great with the idol and Haru. Hell, he could see her getting along with all his friends. The hard part would just be the first few days but after that she would be a part of their little group.
"So, back to the party. Should we on Sunday?" Yamamoto asked.
"That sound's good."
As the day went on, Tsuna found himself thinking when Misaki came over crying, begging for his mom to adopt her and that her father was jerk. After a cup of hot chocolate and a quick call to her dad, Tsuna had agree that Nana should adopt her, which his mother said she was already her daughter and that it would be a good opportunity. After weeks of trying to change her father's mind, Misaki finally agreed to go with her father if she could spend the two weeks before they left over at the Sawada resident. They two of them did nothing but watch movies and play video games, just spending time together.
"This was the first time we had been apart for so long." Tsuna chuckled, remembering how bad the two of them messed up their sleep schedule, still trying to get used to being apart.
It was always the two of them against the world. No one really wanted to hang around him and Misaki really didn't like making the first move. That didn't matter to them. Sure, Tsuna was glad to have his friends and wouldn't trade anything, but none of them could compare Misaki. A smile fell across his face as he reached up and touched the chain under his collar.
He wished Saturday would come faster.
~KHR~
"Thanks again for letting her stay there again. Haruka said she should be down hopefully before the end of the month."
"Tell HaruHaru to take her time. Misa-chan is always welcomed here." Nana said as she folded clothes, holding the phone between her shoulder and ear.
"I really can't thank you enough Nana."
Nana rolled her eye. "Tai."
The man chuckled. "I mean it Na-chan. Ever since she was little, you've been like a mother to her. I just wish…"
Nana smiled sadly as she put down the sheet and switched the phone to her other ear. "Tai, she always watching over Misa. I know, I miss her too. Sometimes I still can't believe she is gone. Heh,I expect to come home and see her standing there with her arms out, grinning like an idiot-"
"And say 'SURPRISE!' and then run while you try to yell at her."
Nana laughed. "Exactly!"
Her eyes drifted over to a picture hanging up, a familiar tug pulling on her heart. It had been ten years since that day she got that phone call, one still echoed in her mind and haunted her to the core.
"...you know Misaki looks just like her now." Nana muses as she picked up one of the recent pictures. "Only thing she got from you was your athletic ability, and eye color. Everything else is all Emi."
Tai snorted, muttering something as his best friend giggles. The sound of the front door opening and a chorus of shouts alerted Nana that her 'children' had come back from the park. She told Tai that she would call him later and hung up. She looked at the photo of Misaki and Tsuna she had on the wall, smiling. It had been taken day before that dreaded phone call, during their trip to the amusement park.
"Nana, Promise me you'll look after Misa-chan."
"I promise, Emi." Nana swore as she asked happily what everyone wanted for lunch.
