"How do I look, Reborn?"
As soon as Reborn saw him, the hitman wanted to hide his eyes under the brim of his hat, like he usually did. Unfortunately, today was special. He did not don it today.
"Like a mafia boss should, Dame-Tsuna."
"But I don't want to look like a mafia boss!" the brunet man huffed predictably, "And especially not on my wedding day."
Reborn snorted elegantly in response. "You are a mafia boss, and, regardless of the occasion, you will look like one." Reborn walked up the young groom. "Even in matrimony."
Tsuna sighed and went back to adjusting his tie, more out of nervousness than actual need to fix its appearance. Tsuna then felt the hitman against his back, his former tutor's long fingers gently removing his hands from the silk fabric.
"You look like a handsome groom," the Italian complemented softly into the ear of his former student.
Tsuna turned to look at his tutor with wide eyes, then looked down just as quickly. The brunet felt his face warm up considerably.
"Ah… eh, th-thanks, Reborn."
Reborn flicked his student's forehead.
"Itai-" The brunet rubbed the tingling spot. Reborn moved away, and Tsuna was faced properly with his tutor.
"Do not stutter, or I will bring out the Leon hammer." On cue, Leon peaked out of his breast pocket, donning a little orange bow tie.
Tsuna looked between Leon and Reborn, then chuckled. "I feel like what you just said would be more threatening if you said it back when you were an infant."
"Oh, is that so?" the hitman said as he let Leon crawl from his pocket to his hand.
Tsuna let up a small 'hiee!' and took a few steps back from the taller man, hands up in mock surrender. Reborn smirked and stretched out his hand, letting Leon crawl onto Tsuna's shoulder. The little chameleon proceeded to rub its head against the groom's cheek. Tsuna seemed a little more relaxed now than when he was fidgeting with his wardrobe.
"You're right, Reborn," Tsuna closed his auburn eyes and took a deep breath. When those eyes opened again, they were brimming with happiness as the brunet smiled brightly at Reborn. "I shouldn't be nervous. I'm marrying the love of my life today."
Tsuna returned Leon its owner and turned away, heading to the door.
"I'm going to review my vows again in the garden," Tsuna announced over his shoulder. "Could you have someone get me when mom comes by with the cake?"
"I'll call for you when Maman arrives."
"Thanks, Reborn!"
The door shut promptly behind the groom, leaving the world's number one hitman behind with his animal companion.
The hitman stroked the reptile in silence.
Leon only observed his master in this silence, and it took several more moments before the serenity was broken.
"You look beautiful, Tsuna." Reborn murmured with his eyes downcast. "Absolutely beautiful."
