Kusakabe was right hand man to the infamous head of the disciplinary committee at 16 and had become part of the Vongola's extended family by the age of 26. Still at the age of 26 he remained Hibari's right hand man and most loyal underling, although his fate had been pretty uncertain when the new Vongola family had been initiated. By the age of 19 he had yet to discover the nature of his flame whether it be cloud or one of the other elements, this had worried him deeply and despite his loyalty to the cloud guardian the teen had felt he may be discarded if he did not show his worth soon.
Luckily at the age of 20 his flame was discovered by none other than the Cavallone right hand man, during a spar on the families' outer estate grounds. Neither boss had been present during this discovery as the two right hand men had made it their explicit business to be nowhere near Dino's office when the two men convened.
Originally whenever their boss's would meet the two right hands would wait outside the mafia don's office sipping on some piping hot coffee. However this tradition was to be cut short, as after the first few meetings it became apparent the office walls were not thick enough to keep in the extremely dubious noises their bosses were making. Therefore both Romario and Kusakabe decided to relocate, making sure they were still within the appropriate range so as to keep Dino's klutziness at bay which otherwise could have resulted in a fair few embarrassing situations.
After the revelation that their boss's may be doing some unsavoury things in Dino's or on occasion Hibari's office, Romario and Kusakabe both made arrangements for the two men to never under any circumstances to be disturbed during a meeting. Furthermore the Cavallone right hand man went one step further and proceeded to cock block any potential suitors for the mafia don (Hibari did his own cock blocking). The two also conspired so that the two lovers schedules had frees at the same time and whenever possible would make it so the two would always be doing missions in the same country.
"Hey Kyoya recently I haven't been getting any proposals from allied families, isn't that weird"
Hibari didn't say anything simply glaring at his blonde lover whilst they lounged on Dino's super-sized bed.
"Not that I'm complaining of course" Dino quickly attempted to rectify his previous statement, Hibari continued to glare at him despite his attempt. "Don't you think it's a little bit strange, maybe Romario knows something, I'll ask him later"?
Or Kusakabe, Hibari thought to himself, in truth he'd noticed the lack of suitors and the coincidental free time and little or no interruptions from subordinates, but the cloud guardian didn't find it bothersome as long as Tsuna and the other herbivores didn't find out and irritate him about it.
3 months later …
The cloud guardian of the Vongola entered the Cavallone mansion with no obstructions, his right hand man Kusakabe pairing off with the Cavallone right hand for a conversation in the foyer. As Hibari walked towards Dino's office door he heard voices, one that obviously belonged to Dino and the other was a distinguishably female, a voice he knew but couldn't quite place.
It wasn't in Hibari's nature to eavesdrop but it couldn't be helped if he could hear some of the conversation through the walls of Dino's office.
"Cavallone you best help me …. Reborn will never…. It's not real…. Fine…I'll be back" that was the females voice she sounded angry at something Hibari noted.
It sounded like Dino was trying to worm his way out of something, a few seconds after the woman had stopped speaking the office door slammed open. A pink haired woman then emerged who Hibari recognised as the storm herbivore's sister, turning round to leave the woman glared at the cloud guardian before making her exit.
With the retreating sound of Binachi's stomping down the corridor Kyoya entered Dino's office finding the blonde man looking slightly dishevelled and stressed.
"Ahhh Kyoya did you need something I wasn't expecting you this soon?" Dino asked him whilst fixing himself in his leather seat.
Hibari narrowed his eyes at his lover who was clearly avoiding an explanation of what just happened with that troublesome woman. Hibari was not beyond threatening the mafia don with his tonfa's but for this situation he decided to use more tact seen as Dino already looked pretty shaken up.
"What did the storm herbivore's sister want?" Hibari asked whilst lowering himself in the seat across the desk from Dino, the cloud guardian watched as Dino's eyes widened slightly before looking away.
"Well erm that is well..." Dino trailed off leaving Hibari just a tad impatient, the urge to force the answer out becoming overwhelming.
The cloud guardian's hands clenched around the leather arms of the chair his nails visibly digging into the worn material; Dino gulped resolving to tell the other man the truth. The blonde mafia boss's eyes stared straight into the guardian's orbs as he spoke.
"Well it seems Romario couldn't keep all my suitors away"
Two nervous right hand men sat on the front row of the church; a fuming Hibari was next to them followed by a terrified Tsuna, a smug looking Reborn, an enthusiastic Ryohei and a bored looking Hana and so on. The church was full every seat taken by one family member or an allied family member, the atmosphere was not that of a normal wedding though as would be expected as it was Bianchi poison scorpions wedding and most people in the hall feared her wrath if they dare ruin her special day.
Dino was standing at the alter shaking with nerves, sweat beading down his forehead which he quickly wiped away with a small handkerchief, the mafia don had no idea why he'd ever agreed to do this. This thought enforced itself even further every time his eyes drifted to his absolutely furious lover in the front row who was looking at him with pure unadulterated hatred. The deathly aura of the cloud guardian terrifying the Vongola boss and the guests around him, most of them edging away the best they could.
When Bianchi had first came into his office demanding that they marry he was shocked but not as shocked as when he found out her request had Tsuna and Reborn's approval. Apparently Reborn felt that Dino needed to marry soon so he could produce heirs furthermore according to Bianchi (who was absolutely terrifyingly angry and upset) Reborn had even suggested her as a possible match.
No one had ever dared question Bianchi's "love" for Reborn, most considered it a gimmick that Bianchi used to stick around close to her brother, but Dino was beginning to question this, maybe the pink haired woman really did love Reborn, the idea became more feasible now Reborn had returned to his adult form. The more the conversation developed the more obvious it became that Bianchi wanted to go ahead with the wedding to make Reborn jealous and hopefully then the hitman would admit his feelings for her, Dino had his serious doubts about this plan actually working. Of course he also had to consider Kyoya, none knew about his and the cloud guardian's relationship well maybe Kusakabe and Romario did but Tsuna and the rest of them didn't. Hibari had made it explicitly clear he didn't want anyone to know of him and Dino, the mafia boss believed this was because Kyoya didn't want to be appear to have a weakness this being the case he felt slightly more loved, in reality though the ex-prefect just didn't want the herbivores bothering him about it unnecessarily.
Dino was beginning to seriously panic as the music started playing and all the guests stood up, his chocolate brown eyes scanned over the crowded church finally landing on Gokudera, Bianchi's brother. The bomber was currently standing next to Yamamoto an empty space beside him presumably for his father; this of course had been one of Bianchi's many requests much to Gokudera's displeasure. Everyone knew how much resentment the storm guardian held towards his father but Bianchi had enforced her request, Dino didn't understand why the preparations were so important when the wedding was all a hoax anyway. Then Dino noticed something unusual were they holding hands, before he could process this discovery the mafia don noticed everyone was once again seated and right before him was Bianchi.
He had to admit she did look beautiful, her hair wasn't it's normal pin straight but was slightly curled at the tips making small ringlets, she now had a fringe on the left side slightly covering her eye and the natural look make up she was wearing made her look that much more cheerful and happy. He must have been staring at her for quite a long time for when he came out of his daze the priest was already at the part of asking if there were any objections.
According to Bianchi's "flawless" plan this was the part where Reborn was supposed to rise up and object proclaiming his undying love for her and sweep her off her feet, Dino suddenly realised that this was never going to happen in a million years especially with the way Reborn was sitting there smugly on the front row. Sweat began rolling down Dino's forehead and the priest began talking again, no no no! this wasn't supposed to happen Dino thought gripped by panic.
It took a moment but Dino realised that everyone was looking at him including Bianchi expectant expressions on their faces, the priest had stopped talking and there was only silence in the church.
"VOIII boss wants to know what the hell is taking so long?" Squalos voice screeched through the hall amplified by the empty space and the stone surrounding it.
"Shut it Trash!" a glass shattered on the top of Squalos head enraging the shark as Wine dripped from his long silver locks, soon his sword was out and the nearby guests were dodging the swaying blade.
Bianchi was furious at this point for several reasons a. her love had not done as she had planned and proclaimed his love for her, b. her wedding day was being disrupted by an insane assassin and c. Dino was staring at her blankly like he'd forgotten his lines.
It only took three seconds for the church to erupt with life; Bianchi lifted up her veil and pulled Dino by his white suit jacket forward, her lips pressing against his. At this specific moment Gokudera collapsed on the floor looking seriously ill from seeing his sisters face, Hibari was on his feet striding large steps towards them with tonfa's drew, Romario and Kusakabe were following hurriedly after him as to prevent a massacre and the rest of the guests were bustling out of the door save Tsuna his guardians and Reborn and the rest of the arcoboleno that begrudgingly attended the fake wedding.
Tsuna just sat there whimpering pathetically, watching on as the drama unfolded much more graphic and vivid than any real life drama he'd ever seen on television.
"Dame-Tsuna surely as the tenth Vongola boss you should be controlling your subordinates" Reborn stated coolly completely unfazed by the bustling guests hurrying to leave.
The brunette sighed mentally, 'Reborn probably planned this from the beginning anyway so why should I have to deal with it' despite this thought Tsuna stood from his seat and attempted to rectify the situation. Organizing things so Kyoko and Haru would usher the remaining guests calmly out of the building, allowing Yamamoto to carry Gokudera out of the church so he could rest, persuading Mammon to disperse the Varia (Bribery), now for the hardest task the cloud guardian.
As the brunette turned around his jaw went slack with the shock, Kyoya was currently straddling the blonde mafia dons hips whilst slamming his tonfa's into each side of the males head, but that wasn't the shocking part of course. Only moments later and with blood splattering the scene and Bianchi's wedding gown, the dark haired ex prefect was sliding his tongue over Dino's cheek swiping a small trickle of blood into his mouth before kissing the blonde directly on the lips, the other tasting the bitter tang of iron from his own blood. Deciding he wasn't satisfied enough with the rough treatment of the blonde, Hibari's slightly swollen lips smeared red began nipping at the mafia dons jaw slowly moving down his neck before canines sank into the skin harshly most likely producing a flowering deep purple bruise.
The blonde winced in pain as he felt his head yanked forward forcefully by a hand tangled in his blood stained hair, chocolate orbs opened and took in the vicious demeanour of his lover.
"You belong to me" the cloud guardian growled at him clearly in a territorial manner before dropping his head back on the wood floor making a thud.
Dino's view point cleared as Kyoya walked out of his field of vision, leather designer shoes clacking on the floor as he exited the church Kusakabe following suit only glancing back slightly to assess the situation and damage. Now the blonde's eyes were fixed on a furious woman that resembled medusa, her hair blowing wildly around her face which was contorted in fury.
"You have humiliated me in front of my family, the Vongola and the rest of our allied mafia families" Bianchi was seething and Tsuna tried to repress a shudder but failed.
The brunette placed a hand on the pink haired woman's shoulder attempting to calm her down but in the end resulted with the enraged woman rounding on the poor man almost knocking him to the ground in her fury.
"What is it Tsunaioshi, do you have anything to say?" her voice was terrifying almost bordering on crazy.
"Well erm… maybe we should head over to where the reception was supposed to be, I'm sure there's an explanation for this" the kind Vongola boss tried to offer his older brother an escape.
An almighty screech rumbled through the floor's and bounced off the walls of the church as Bianchi threw her largest most despicable looking cake at the mafia don in her hysterical rage.
It only took a few seconds for her to realise what she'd done but it was too late as the poisonous cake was about to hit its target if it weren't for a bullet that had changed its course, leaving only a few splats of the purple liquid on a certain hitmans tux.
Bianchi looked startled more than anything as she stared into Reborn's charcoal black eyes from under the fringe of his hat. 'How could she have not realised this before, Reborn held affection for someone else other than her, she had been so terribly selfish bringing everyone into her failed love life" the thought almost brought tears to her normally stoic eyes before she fled out of the back entrance of the building.
