DAY 287

"admit it! You were jealous!" I teased Tsuna.

"No I wasn't!" he insisted.

"don't deny it! When I was looking at Fon's body, you were frowning!" I grinned.

"eh...besides, why were you looking at his body?!" he asked.

"Is it wrong?"

"no, but..."

"admit it! You're jealous!" I teased him again.

"I said I was not. Stop insisting!"

"You're the one who's insisting! Not me!" I pointed out.

"Tsuna's jealous~ You frowned at that time, I saw it, so don't deny it" I confirmed.

"I SAID I WAS NOT!" he stood up and yelled loudly and his expression shows that his angry, super angry.

I just sat there, looking at him, completely shocked. "ah! Jewel, I-"

"I-I'm sorry!" I stood up and bowed. My voice was cracky because I felt like crying.

After that, I ran upstairs and into my room. I locked the door afterwards.

I just stared at my room, after some seconds, I jumped to my bed and cried on my pillow. I'm so stupid! I'm so stupid! I'm stupid!

I shouldn't have teased him that much! I know he get's serious easily...I shouldn't have done that.

And it's my fault...I shouldn't have forced him to admit it. Every man has pride in them...and I guess was depriving him...

KNOCK! KNOCK!

I stiffened. "Jewel?" Tsuna called out from the outside.

I just stayed silent. "Jewel? Can we talk?" he called out again.

"..."

"Please, Jewel. Let me in" Tsuna said.

I bit my lip and hugged my knees. "Jewel...I'm begging you..." I can hear him slumping on the door.

I shaked my head. I got out of the bed and opened the window, which made a sound.

"Jewel?!" Tsuna panicked.

I glanced one last time at the door and then jumped from the window. I landed on the ground safely, but it made a big 'thud'.

"Jewel?!" I can hear Tsuna yelling from the inside.

I ran, without knowing where to go. Ugh!

Before turning to one alley, I looked back. I saw the figure of Tsuna, he was in HDWM.

I quickly ran faster and hid in a good hiding spot. I released my flames of purity and let it engulfed me. I just hope this flames conceal my presence, since Tsuna has hyper intuition.

I can sense him, I sweated. And then, I felt he's already gone. I sighed in relief.

Then, Maggiore suddenly pops out in his real form, but in a smaller size. "Leggendia, Jewel, why must you run away and hide?" he asked.

"I don't know...I'm just ashamed of myself..." I replied as I sat on the floor and hugged my knees.

Maggiore sighed. "I guess I need to understand humans more"

"but...just because you are ashamed on what you did, you'll avoid him? Besides, both you and I know that he really didn't mean to yell at you" he pointed out.

"yeah...I know he didn't mean it...but still...if he yelled...that means I angered him..." I covered my face with my knees.

"then, why don't say sorry?" he suggested.

"eeshy for yow to shay" I said as I dug my face to my knees even more. (easy for you to say)

"it's just apologising. Apologise with all your heart, and everything will be fine" Maggiore simply said.

"Do you know how hard that is?" I looked up to see his expression.

"it's easy" he said.

I just did a poker face. "no, it's not" I insisted.

"okay, different question. What now? Now that you left the house and have nowhere to go...where will you stay now?" he asked.

"dunno" I slumped on my knees.

"then, what will you do if it rains?"

"huh?" I looked up again.

And...the clouds in the sky are dark grey. And then I heard a loud thunder. And I can feel little drops of water falling.

"I know what you're thinking, Leggendia. No, I'm not the one who made it rain" Maggiore pointed out.

The rain falls down heavily. Thanks to that, I'm all wet. And Maggiore went back to his ring form.

I just slouched while walking. This rain is not making my mood any better. And I thought the rain washes away your feelings.

Flip-flop, flip-flop, flip-flop. My footsteps make sounds, especially if I step on puddles.

Well, today, I ran out of the house with flat sandals. So...my feet are wet and soaked. Also...good thing that the cloth of my clothes are not see-through when wet.

I just took a bath a while ago...and now I'm all wet again. I need to take a short shower after this...

Another loud thunder was heard. I almost jumped from hearing that loud thunder. I'm not scared of them.but...it's just too loud and it comes unexpectedly.

Cars pass by, splashing some water. With this heavy rain...is there really no storm?

I was just walking straight, looking down on the floor. Then, I saw two orange shoes with white laces.

I just stood there, looking down. I took a small glance at Tsuna's expression. Well...I didn't get a clear view since it was raining.

Then suddenly, he faces the opposite direction and kneels. "hop on" he said, meaning that I'll ride on his back.

I can do nothing but follow him. I gently wrapped my arms around his neck. And Tsuna held my both my legs for support.

I leaned my face on his back as he started walking. "ne...Jewel..." he started.

"yes?" I replied.

"I didn't really mean to shout at you a while back" he said. "I'm sorry on what I did" he apologised.

"you know what? You're so unfair..." I said, clenching his shirt.

"why?" he asked as the rain continued to fall.

"it should be me who's supposed to apologise, not you. I shouldn't have teased you back there..." I hid my face by digging it to his chest.

"no...it's alright. Actually, I yelled because it was true. I got jealous" he admitted it. I can feel he tightened his grip on both of my legs.

"I now his body are what girls like. And...when I saw you staring at him...I got jealous. And then maybe, you'll leave me..." he said.

"Tsuna...you know that I love you, right? And I don't love someone based on their looks. I love you on who you are...and nothing will change that" I stated.

"yes...I know...but still, I'm sorry" he repeated.

"I'm sorry too, Tsu-kun...I shouldn't have pushed you to the edge" I apologised.

"it's okay, I forgive you" he replied.

"I forgive you too" I relaxed on his back.

"man...just because of little things, we fight each other" I said.

"well, it's not really a fight. You ran away and I chased you. I think that's not considered as a fight" he pointed out.

I laughed. "yeah...I guess so..."

"now...we're wet" Tsuna sighs.

"want to take a shower with me?" I smiled.

Tsuna blushed furiously. "ahahaha! I was just kidding!" I said.

"mattaku..." Tsuna looks away.

"my Tsu-kun is so adorable!" I said, all hype.

"and my Jewel is so unresistable" Tsuna continued.

I blushed a little. "yeah, and don't you forget it!" I grinned as I raised my arms up in the sky.

"ah! Don't move too much!" Tsuna warned.

"oops! Sorry!" I said as I moved to a minimum.

"so...want to take a shower with me?" I asked again.

Tsuna's blush came back. "Jewel!" he yelled.

"hai hai, gomenasai!" I grinned.

A/N: Yo minna! And so...I'll just retain my style. I'll update 2-3 chapters a week.

It seems plenty of you want that. And I think it's better if I retain it.

Hope you enjoyed this! ^_^
