Phew, this is Redd here with an 1827 fanfic. Well, let's get things straight. First, for people who don't know, this is a boyxboy/shounen- ai story. So, if you're gonna review saying that you don't like yaoi, then please kindly leave. Well then, I don't own Katekyo Hitman Reborn (no matter how many times I ask Santa or how many candles I blow on my birthday)…andddd enough of my rambling, let's get this started.
Last Wish; Only Wish
Tsuna stumbled almost blindly through the trees. His eyesight wavered and everything was blurry. His bullet wounds bled endlessly and bumping them into everything in his way didn't help. But still, he had only one thing on his mind…
"Kyoya…" Tsuna repeated in his mind over and over. The word gave him strength to take each painful step.
Then, a rustling sound made him stop. A sharp voice cut through the air, "Who's there?"
Tsuna's eyes brightened, his heart lifted and started beating faster- the never failing reaction to the voice.
Ah. That voice. That cool and dangerous voice that also lulled him gently to sleep at nights. The voice that insured him safety and calms him down. It never failed to give him newfound strength-even now.
"Kyoya." Tsuna breathed.
"Tsuna?"The voice visibly softened.
Tsuna saw a shadow step away from a tree. The shadow then showed to be his lover, "Kyoya." Tsuna smiled, stumbling toward- and would've fallen if the cloud guardian didn't catch him.
Tsuna's smile grew wider as he nuzzled into the man's warm chest. He heard his lover's strong and steady heartbeat, "Kyoya…" Tsuna felt himself being lowered and he knew that his lover was now sitting down and cradling him in his arms.
"Who did this to you! It was that bastard Byakuran wasn't it? You went to the stupid meeting didn't you? I told you to wait for me! I was looking for you! I'm going to take you to the hospital!" Tsuna heard Kyoya actually yell.
Tsuna shook his head slowly as his cloud guardian started to get up, "No. Kyoya, you already know it's too late and that this has to happen. Kyoya…don't go anywhere. Let's just stay like this. It's getting cold, and I need to tell you something." He barely managed to whisper.
"Stop talking like that! It's not too late." Kyoya nearly screamed, but he didn't get up, and was all too aware of the hot and humid weather as he wrapped his arms tightly around the shivering Tsuna…as if force alone could keep his beloved warm and with him.
Tsuna rested his head on the warm chest, hearing the now louder and faster heartbeat. "Kyoya," Tsuna breathed, "I love you- so much. I also love the family…and this world. I want to protect you…everyone."
If possible, Kyoya tightened his grip, "Stupid herbivore, I don't need your protection." He whispered in Tsuna's ear.
"I know…you're strong and I'm proud of that, but please, to save everyone, follow the plan." Tsuna looked directly into the sad silver eyes of the usual stoic cloud guardian. His hand somehow found Kyoya's hand and he gripped it tightly, as if afraid the other would run away, "Please." He added in a raspy breath.
"Kyoya's eyes widened, "The plan…the plan he hated so much. The plan that required for Tsuna to have to go through this." He grit his teeth, "Damn it." He hissed.
Tsuna smiled sadly, "I love you Kyoya." He lifted his other hand to his beloved's cheek, his eyes filled with nothing but affection, "Our times together were the best of my life. So…to continue these times…please make this plan succeed. I want us all to have a peaceful future together." Tsuna's breath was now more ragged and he started breathing heavier. He felt his eyelids close and his hands started to lose strength, but he still tried to stubbornly find the other's warmth. "I love you…Kyoya." His breath now a whisper, his voice cracking and fading, "and…I'm sorry."
Kyoya felt the cold fingers around his own fall a little. He closed his eyes and held the other's hand to his lips, speaking softly with a broken voice for only his beloved to hear, "I love you too…Tsunayoshi."
*In Tsuna's final moments when he felt his heart slowing and his vision fading completely, he looked up…and thought, "Ahh...Kami-sama, I ask of you…this one last wish. Please… I just want…Kyoya to be happy…"*
The cloud guardian stared at the black, gold decorated coffin before him. His eyes held no emotions. In his mind, Tsuna's last moments kept replaying and distantly, he could hear the other's sobs and failed attempts on trying to appear tough. He was the only one at the funeral without either a tear streaked face or a suspicious moisture in their eyes.
That didn't matter to him anyways though. Whatever emotions that he had were dealt with before the funeral-when he was alone. Now, everything was merely felt gone and empty to him.
It's been a long time since he felt like he was all by himself. Then he scoffed at his state, "Since when had he been so weak?"
Kyoya stared at the body in the coffin. The peaceful face was beautiful…angelic…it would've freed him of worry any day but now. Now, there was something off, his color was too pale and his skin looked too clammy.
Kyoya took a deep breath as the events brought them back to him again, "The herbivore is dead. Tsunayoshi is dead. Tsunayoshi is dead."
His feelings didn't even change when he told himself of how much of a success he would make the plan and that he wouldn't fail-couldn't- no matter what it took. Kyoya tried to fight back the feelings that he thought he dealt with and banished already. Once again, cloud guardian looked at his the remains of his everything…Tsuna. His eyes were now filled with an overwhelming sadness that even he couldn't hold back; no one would be able to see or begin understand it.
"To make me this weak, herbivore…you better take responsibility. I won't let you escape just like this." Kyoya reached down and caressed Tsuna's cheek gently. Then he pulled back and turned away. "Watch me, Tsunayoshi. I'll make this stupid plan of yours a success and when you come back I'll give you an earful and bite you over and over until you understand to never leave me like this again."
*On the day of the tenth Vongola boss's funeral, the weather was what people would consider perfect, with a little wind, soft clouds and a bright sun. And as Kyoya walked away from the sobbing crowd, he thought to himself, "Ahh…Kami-sama, I may have not believed in you up until now, and even though I usually won't do this…can you at least grant this one and only wish of mine? I just want…to see the happy Tsunayoshi again…"*
Ahh, feels nice to write a story. Flaming is fine. Criticism is fine, but please explain your reasons. Reviews will be appreciated, I won't pressure you, but I want to improve more since this is like my first fanfic.
And this is Redd signing out. =w=
