In a world where Sawada Tsunayoshi is a professional violinist, being a Mafia boss seems far-fetched. But he can't escape the fate etched into his blood. No Arcobaleno curse. AU Violinist!Tsuna

Warnings: Shounen Ai; No hetero-pairing unless I change my mind; Nothing explicit because I can't write them. May have minor violence in chapters to come (if bullying is considered as one). May have colorful language. Rated T for that reason :3

A/N: Regarding the violin, I researched about violin pieces. One of the pieces I liked was "Bach's Chaconne for Solo Violin". Listened to it on YouTube. It's what he's playing in the beginning. Partita in D minor no. 2 by Bach

Disclaimer: No, KHR is not mine. It's Amano-sensei's manga. And of course, I own nothing but the plot.

In the center of a large room, a lone man stands, eyes closed, relaxed yet focusing intensely.

He starts playing the instrument ― the violin ― he has.

His body swaying, swinging along every move his bow does.

The feeling of serenity washes over him. He was alone; alone in his room.

Alone, yet he wanted to play this piece, this nostalgic piece.

The first piece he heard when he was four.

The one that drew him to play the violin when he was four.

Nostalgia.

He had been so no-good in those years. Even now, he is no good.

He was called a violin genius in Italy by so many people

He was seven years old then..

Now he's fourteen, nicknamed No-good Tsuna by almost everyone.

His forte, his only forte was ― is ― playing the violin.

Yet, he's still bullied.

A fourteen-year-old professional shouldn't be bullied?

Not like everyone is actually interested in violin or classical music.

Not like everyone would believe he was a pro.

Not like he'd want them to know.

The only thing he didn't want ― or couldn't bear ― them doing to him is injuring his fingers; his hands.

They're precious, very precious.

He didn't want to become unable to play his only forte.

But even that wish of his wasn't granted.

A year ago, one of his bullies had stepped on his right arm ― the one he used for holding the bow ― and broke his bone.

He is currently rehabilitating his broken right arm.

Waiting; waiting for the time when he could play like he used to again.

But he wanted to play the piece he had been practicing for two years.

With adrenaline, he could play a little bit like he used to, but there was this part where it felt void and empty.

Like there was a missing piece when he played now.

Slowly, slowly he stopped playing.

He didn't finish it and only played until the half of the third movement.

He didn't want to finish an amazing piece with emptiness; he wanted to finish it with contentedness in his heart.

He didn't want to finish it half-heartedly.

It just didn't feel right.

He'll finish it when the missing piece comes along.

A/N: I wonder if it's okay...It just hit me, like BAM! when I saw an innocent violin music book in the depths of my shelf.

Tell me what you think? BTW, I absolutely have no idea how to describe a violin piece. I just don't know how. Well, I take criticism well. It's more of an advice to me :3

This is probably considered a prologue.

Last thing. Tell me whom I should pair Tsuna with :3
