Chapter 4 has first meetings and set-up dates

"Hey, Tsuna, I want to introduce you to someone. He's a close friend of mine," Reborn, a tutor and one of Tsuna's close friends, stated the moment the brunet opened his door to his tiny apartment. And before Tsuna knew it, he was being dragged out of his place and down the hallway. Luckily, used to Reborn's random and strange behavior, Tsuna managed to lock his door and grab his wallet on his way, before getting shoved into an elevator and then into the passenger seat of Reborn's car. Of course, Tsuna didn't want to go though; he had better things to do, like studying - especially for that test that was coming up tomorrow.

"Reborn, come on, I have a test tomorrow. I need to study for it, can't this wait until, you know, after today?" Tsuna pouted, hoping that the older man would listen to him. But, of course, Reborn ignored the request and drove off, taking Tsuna with him whether he wanted to go or not. The man passed by the other cars on the street, basically speeding through and around others without any second thought.

"Oh, shut up, Dame-Tsuna. You need to meet this man. He'll be good for you." Reborn spoke under his breath, eyes flashing all over the street, and eventually parked into a spot that was in front of a café. Immediately, he stepped out and went around to drag Tsuna out of his car. The brunet pouted at that, feeling his arm about to rip off at the forcefulness Reborn was exhibiting but allowed himself to get pulled away. The older man continued to talk as they headed over towards the café - well, it was more of a mutter. "In more ways than one." Entering the place and taking a few steps in, he came to a stop and shoved Tsuna forward in front of a person that had just stood up from a table. "Hey, Fong, this is Dame-Tsuna."

Blinking, Tsuna glanced up at the other person curiously, wondering how important this person was to get Reborn to take him away from his home. Instantly, his cheeks darkened in color. His eyes couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Beautiful… The person before him radiated of light, and that smile on the other's lips was brilliant. Tsuna scolded himself mentally. Why did he have such a weakness towards people that smiled? His eyes continued to observe the other, who was obviously older than him by a few years, and noticed that the man was Chinese, if the graceful-looking red robes didn't give him away. Fong's long black hair was tied into a braid that was hanging off his shoulders and it appeared silky to Tsuna's eyes. It was so tempting for the brunet to reach forward to touch but ignored every desire to do so. "Um…"

Fong came closer, his smile bright. "Nice to meet you. It's… Tsuna, right?" There was some hesitation in saying the name since the way Reborn had stated it meant something different.

"A-Ah, yeah. My full name is Tsunayoshi but please call me Tsuna." The brunet wanted to disappear from sight, the vision of the other starting to overwhelm his senses. His cheeks darkened in color and he eventually stared down at the ground to prevent himself from looking anymore. Reborn smirked at the reaction and immediately shoved the brunet forward to prevent any and all impromptu escape plans. A squeak escaped the shorter man's lips. He crashed straight into Fong, who caught him instantly.

The Chinese man chuckled, wrapping his arms firmly around the smaller body. "Be careful, Tsuna. It'd be terrible if you fell."

Tsuna's redness only grew darker as it settled into his mind that he was touching the other man. He could even hear the heart pounding within Fong's chest since his ear was resting against that area. The already dark color on his face went all the way up to his ears. "T-Thank you…"

Fong blinked, pulling away from Tsuna to bend over a bit since he was half a head taller. "Hey, your face is all red. Are you feeling okay? You don't have a fever, do you?" He reached up to place a hand against Tsuna's forehead, brushing back those long caramel-colored bangs out of the way to get a better feel. The mere touch of those long fingers against the brunet made him jump back to put some distance between them, crashing straight into Reborn's waiting arms. Fong looked a little shocked at the sudden shove. "I-Is something wrong? Did I offend you in some way?"

Rapidly shaking his head, Tsuna stared down at his feet. He so wanted to disappear right now! Oh, why did he have such a stupid weakness for people like Fong? Tsuna could just feel his heart pounding within his chest. He wanted to hit himself - they had just met! 'Get it together, Tsuna!'

"Sorry, he's just incredibly shy." Reborn smirked, grinning dangerously as he stared down at Tsuna. "Very much so." He gave a leer at the little brunet, well aware of what was going on inside Tsuna's head. Fong, however, remained unaware as he sighed in relief.

"Oh, I see. Well then, I'll just have to be careful from now on, won't I?" Fong chuckled and stepped closer. His warm dark-colored eyes stared into the honey-colored ones. He held out a hand in front of him. "I hope we'll become good friends from now on, Tsuna."

Tsuna reached out to grasp the other's hand gently, biting his bottom lip. "Y-Yeah…"

"Oh, Tsuna, it's nice to see you again. It's been a while, hasn't it?" Fong smiled, looking over the brunet before him.

Tsuna immediately paused as he heard those words, blinking his large eyes in surprise. Earlier that day, Reborn had invited him out to dinner with some friends and of course, Tsuna went along. He couldn't resist. It was free food since he knew very well that Reborn would be paying for everything. No matter how much trouble the other caused for him, Reborn knew his one weakness towards a free meal. College fees and books along with his rent didn't leave him with enough money to get decent things.

The brunet blinked as he looked at Fong top-to-bottom. It had been months since their first meeting, and as of right now, only Fong and himself had showed up at their designated table. The others were nowhere in sight in the large restaurant.

"O-Oh, Fong…" The brunet's face turned a little red, but not as bad as before. He was tempted to smack himself for not realizing that the other might be here too. He was Reborn's friend, after all. "It's nice to see you again. Um…" Looking nervously to the side, he tried to make small talk while still standing. "Have you been well?"

"Yes, thank you for asking." The Chinese man tilted his head, letting his bangs fall at the movement, and smiled. "It appears like you look better than before. Not as red. Are you feeling better? Well, I guess you should. It's been almost four months, right?"

"Y-Yeah…"

Fong smiled despite the hesitation Tsuna was showing. "Well, sit. Don't just stand there."

Tsuna nodded and settled into a random seat, moving as far away as possible from the other.

Blinking at the arrangement, Fong chuckled, bringing up a hand to his lips. "Tsuna, the seats have names on them. Yours is actually right next to mine."

'Reborn, you bastard!' Tsuna paled, not believing the schemes the other had in mind. It was too obvious. The older man was purposefully trying to put them together. Shifting over, Tsuna settled into the seat on Fong's left but tried to keep as far away as possible in that little spot.

"I think it's quite amazing that we still remember each other's name after all this time. When I first saw you, it took me a moment to remember." Fong smiled softly, finding himself happy at the fact the brunet was next to him. He didn't understand why, but he didn't care. He glanced around the room for a moment, finding it empty without the others, excluding those that weren't in their group. "Well then, since no one else has arrived yet, let's talk. There's so much I want to ask you."

"O-Oh…" A light tint of red spread across Tsuna's pale cheeks and he played with his fingers in his lap. "I see. Why?"

"I'm kinda curious about you. You act… different compared to everyone else." The Chinese man leaned back against his chair and sighed, running a hand through his hair and pushing his bangs back. "You're different than the usual people I've meet. Your personality, if you don't mind me saying, intrigues me. It's not like my friends. That's why I want to know you better. I hope we can become close friends."

"W-Well…" Tsuna couldn't help but think inside. 'I want to be more than friends with you but… it'll be a good start.' He smiled lightly, his lips twitching a little. "Yeah, that sounds good."

"Great, maybe we should meet up sometime. Like a café or something. We can speak all we want there. And-oh! There's Luce." Fong's sentence was slightly out cut off by the sudden appearance of a familiar person stepping though the front door of the restaurant. The black-haired man raised his hand up, waving it to catch her attention.

Tsuna blinked and watched as the woman's face exploded into a bright smile. Just as she began walking closer, Tsuna noticed some movement from the corner of his eyes, recognizing the dark clothes and hat that was on top of the person's head. He spotted Reborn slipping out from behind a wall and immediately, Tsuna's eyes narrowed. He should have known Reborn was behind everything and was close by to watch. By luck, he had accidently come later than the appointed time he had been messaged.

"Oh, dear, did I come too late?" Luce smiled, regardless of what she had just announced. "I thought the appointment was at 6:30?"

Tsuna twitched. His message said 6:00…

Reborn, on the other hand, couldn't help but smirk. His student was getting better at recognizing his schemes.

Hope you've enjoyed it!

Ah, that's right. To all those that joined my Fong27 contest, I am still reviewing the entries. Like stated above, I keep getting distracted. I have about 2 out of 8 done but I won't post them up until I get them all completed.
