Short little angsty ficlet. Because my iPod's been spewing out angsty songs. Blame it.
And, D27 is love. Yes or Yes?

Never had he been a brother to anyone. He was a student to Reborn, a boss to Romario and the rest of the Cavallone famiglia, and an ally for the Vongola famiglia. But never a big brother.
So one could never imagine how elated the Cavallone boss was when his former tutor introduced him to his current protégé. One look at Sawada Tsunayoshi, and the words just spilled from Dino's mouth.
"You can call me big brother!"
All the occupants of the room just stared at him with blank expressions, quite dampening his mood. But when those big, amber eyes glimmered with joy and adoration, Dino knew that, now, he'll be a big brother to someone.
"Dino-ni-nii-s-saaan!"
Yes, he'll be Sawada Tsunayoshi's big brother.

Dino never thought being a big brother to someone was hard. He had to watch out for his actions in front of his little brother so that he'll be a good example, with Romario by his side of course. He also had to constantly encourage his usually downhearted little brother so that he could see the sunny smile that he's so fond of.
And there's also the answering of the question, "I-I like someone… but I d-don't know what to do…?"
That, Dino deemed, was the hardest responsibility he has ever encountered ever since being the next Vongola leader's big brother. Being a love advisor, or something along those lines. Sure, he has had his fair share of dating here and there and giving advices about this sort of thing, but when he was asked by Tsuna out of the blue, all he could do was stare at the young brunette, lips slightly open.
"D-Dino-nii-san?"
Dino's brain locked down. So were his feelings.
"Tsuna, first you have to woo her! Be nice and act like a perfect gentleman."
That night, Tsuna took notes from his big brother's lecture about winning a girl's heart, oblivious to the hurt that the blond was feeling as each word passed his lips.

The rum swished about inside the glass, the ice knocking over each other producing a shrill sound. He was wasted, Romario said, but he never stopped drinking, emptying bottle after bottle and gradually being drunker than he already was.
A few feet away, his cell phone lay, screen bright. In its screen was the message that pushed Dino into this state.
Sender: Tsuna
Time: Wed, 7:32 p.m.
Dino-nii! Kyoko-chan said yes! Thank youuuuu!
Dino just smiled bitterly before downing another glass of rum.
