"Aishiteru"

AN: So, I found this quote by Rose Walker, a character in the Sandman DC comic series by Neil Gaiman (well, it has been awhile since I read American comics since the Japanese basically caught me into their fandom) about love and decided to use each line of the quote for pairings I like in Katekyo Hitman Reborn! in a small series of oneshots.

(Some references to Future Arc so… if you're not up there in either the manga or anime, there will be spoilers!)

Katekyo Hitman Reborn! belongs to Amano Akira.

Chapter 1: Rokudo Mukuro and Chrome Dokuro (6996)

"Have you ever been in love?

Horrible isn't it?

It makes you so vulnerable."

"Mukuro-sama!" Chrome yells out as her body felt weak again.

She was caught in a new battle and the enemy attacked her before she was prepared to let out one of her illusions.

"Mukuro… -sama…." Chrome felt a thud on her chest as her internal organs started to disappear again. Is she too late to use her Vongola Ring of Mist?

"Nagi…"

Chrome reappears in an illusion. Mukuro is stroking her hair as her head lies on his lap.

"Mukuro-sama?"

"Nagi, it's quiet. Just rest for now…"

"I…"

"I know, Nagi. I felt that, too"

And Chrome closed her eyes as she tries to sleep in Mukuro's arms.
