Tsuna didn't know whether to be surprised there were groaning bodies writhing around on the plaza of the park or not. No wonder the man at the entrance was so shaken. 

"Reborn... wasn't inviting Hibari-san a bad idea?" He deadpanned as his friends went around to help each stranger up. 

"Isn't this a good opportunity? You get to see how an actual couple acts. It'll prove useful when you want to seduce Kyoko." Reborn offhandedly replied back, scurrying away somewhere. 

They followed the path of bodies to a cafe, where they all immediately jumped into the bushes; a survival instinct. They all could see Hibari sitting there at a table, from the look of it, asleep - with Mai across from him reading through the menu. 

"They're already eating? Isn't that a bad idea..." Tsuna groaned, just the thought of having food just before going on some of the crazy rides here... there was bound to be someone, him, who would throw up. Even the idea made him queasy. 

"I can't image Hibari or Inoue going on any rides though... Maybe the slower ones, like the ferris wheel or carousel." Yamamoto mused. He was right, none of them could see Inoue going on any of the big and fast rides. Hibari maybe, but if Inoue wasn't then neither would Hibari. 

"Hibari doesn't seem the type to enjoy any of that." Gokudera scowled. He'd asked about a thousand times why the prefect had to come and ruin his trip with Juudaime. He never got a satisfactory answer. 

"Hibari's too extreme." Ryohei said in a slightly raised voice - because his voice was never in a normal volume. 

They all continued to 'spy' on the couple when Tsuna felt a little shiver, "Um... Is it just me, or did Inoue-san just look over here?" He paled, knowing that they made eye contact. 

"Eh? How would she know?" Gokudera grinned, obviously confident in his stalking skills. He should be. 

"I'm pretty sure..." Tsuna repeated, getting an uneasy feeling in his stomach. 

"I heard she was getting help from Mukuro right?" Yamamoto grinned, laying down some crazy information that the others had no clue about. 

"WHAT!!?" They almost shouted loud enough for Mai to hear, Hibari too. "How!? W-When!?" Tsuna questioned, strangely out of breath.

"Senpai told me, I saw her walking to Kokuyo with Chrome. She has mist flames so she was training with Chrome and Mukuro." Yamamoto explained, only earning pure confusion.

"Are you sure? Hibari-san would never have let her go to Mukuro..." Tsuna grimaced, he remembers them always fighting as soon as they see each other. Except that one time when the situation was serious. They could be an unbeatable pair if they just worked nicely together...

"Ah, it was a secret." Gokudera held back from cursing at the idiot rain guardian. 

"So Inoue-san can ac- is that a rabbit?" Tsuna began but was cut off when a cute white bunny hopped over towards them. It's purple eyes trained on them as it just stood there in front of them. 

"Aren't they supposed to be scared of humans to the extreme?" Ryohei questioned, every little animal he'd ever ran into always ran in the opposite direction at crazy speeds.

"No, are there even meant to be animals in here?" Tsuna sweat dropped, being the only normal thinking one here.

"You're right, Tsuna-san." They all knew there was no female with them when they arrived. 

They looked back guiltily, seeing a smiley Mai standing over their crouched forms. But there was also a Mai at the cafe too...

"An illusion?" Tsuna muttered, pretty impressed but a little terrified. 

The Mai at the cafe waved happily over at them, while the other caught the rabbit that leapt at her, "Yes, I couldn't help but notice you spying. I thought I should intervene before Kyoya woke up." Tsuna was forever thankful. He didn't mean to watch, he was just hiding but it turning into spying. 

"You should go enjoy yourselves, don't worry about Kyoya." Although her smile was reassuring, the practically dead bodies they saw on the way in, were not. But they heeded her advice anyway and scurried off. 

The Mai near the bushes faded into a cloud of purple mist, the rabbit disappearing also. A waiter came out of the cafe just as they vanished from sight. He walked calmly over to their table to take their orders. As if on cue, Hibari woke up. 

"Tea." Was all he said, the waiter was a little confused and troubled. What tea? Green tea? Black tea? Jasmine? Oolong? What? 

"Green tea." Mai smiled beautifully at the waiter, who just found and lost his first love, "I'll have a strawberry parfait and two scoops of the chilli ice cream you offer. For a drink... hm... Just water please." Is this really Mai? She can order food so perfectly without stuttering and messing up her order? Who is this person? Hmph. That's what three more years of experience does to you. 

She's almost an adult you know. 

Oh, she wasn't a glutton, the chilli ice cream was for Hibari. He seemed to have wanted it. She noticed him eyeing the page it was on earlier. And since he was looking towards the bottom, where the ice cream was listed, she supposed he wanted it. Because he doesn't actually like any normal flavour of ice cream.  

The order came quickly, obviously, since they were the only ones there. Mai pushed the red, really ominous looking, kinda scary ice cream over to Hibari, who didn't make a word of complaint or thanks. He just started eating it like it was vanilla ice cream or something. 

Mai finished her parfait in just over five minutes, "Spicy?" She asked, actually really interested in having some herself, but holding herself back.

Hibari huffed, "Not really. Try it yourself." She wasn't expecting him to speak politely, no, his demands were much more in character. 

She sparkled as Hibari pushed the small bowl over to her side, handing over the spoon. She scooped up a little amount and practically glowed after tasting it. 

"It's not spicy but it's so good~." 

"Eat the rest, I've had enough." -This, this was the reason she ordered two scoops. Hibari was by no means a tsundere, probably more of a yandere let's be real, but he never voiced his true feelings. So she had to make him, and even then they sounded really cold. But she's been with him for ages, she can tell when he's being compassionate and when he hates her guts. Which, so far, he never has. 

The redness on her face was not from the ice cream either.
