Chapter One

Accidental Confessions

Gokudera was walking to Tsuna's to walk him to school as usual, sadly along with that baseball nut. When he met up with Yamamoto and finally arrived at Tsuna's. They were greeted by his mom who had a worried expression.

"Where's Juudaime?" Gokudera raised an eyebrow, his bag flung over his shoulder casually.

"He's come down with the flu, and I have so much shopping to do today…" Tsuna's mom frowned. She had to buy medicine, and stuff to prepare dinner for tonight.

"I'll take care of Juudaime!" Gokudera immediately offered. "You can go shopping, I'll make sure he gets better as fast as possible!"

"Really? What about school?" Tsuna's mom smiled slightly, happy about how much Gokudera cared for his friend.

"Yeah! Don't worry about school, I'll think of something." Gokudera smiled. He always skipped anyways so that wouldn't be a problem, heck he wouldn't even have to worry about it he just wouldn't go. After all, Juudaime was more important.

"Okay." Tsuna's mom replied happily, and then waved to Yamamoto who had to run because he would be late if he didn't. Gokudera went inside with her, and quickly ran upstairs. He slowly opened Tsuna's door, and peeked inside.

A pale boy lay sprawled out on the bed, unable to cover up in blankets because he was sweating. Gokudera walked quietly over to Tsuna and put his hand on his forehead.

"Shit." Gokudera mumbled. Juudaime was sick, his forehead was burning, his cheeks were tinted pink and the rest of his face was pale like the dead. Gokudera stood for a minute, just staring at the boy who breathed heavily and unevenly. He then ran downstairs to get a cloth, realizing that Tsuna's mom had already left he shrugged and quickly got a cloth from under the kitchen sink, wet it with cold water, and ran upstairs. He entered Tsuna's room, and leaned over the bed, placing the cloth on his forehead, which was obviously still burning.

Tsuna moved around in his sleep, temperature not falling. Gokudera had brought him up a glass of water, but couldn't bring himself to wake him from his sleep. Gokudera leaned over and rested his head on the edge of Tsuna's bed, drifting in and out of consciousness.

"G-Gokudera-kun?!" Tsuna woke in surprise, the wet cloth falling from his head into his hands. He smiled, Gokudera had been taking care of him and had fallen asleep.

"I love you Juudaime…" Gokudera mumbled. "More than…" he stopped, followed by the sound of light breathing and the occasional snore.

"What?!" Tsuna felt like time had stopped for a moment, he meant it like a friend… right? Even if he meant it 'that' way, he would only direct it to 'Juudaime', not Tsuna. Besides, they were both boys.

"Hn…" Gokudera woke from the noise. "Juudaime!" he smiled brightly. "You're awake!"

"Y-Yeah…" Tsuna smiled and laughed awkwardly, followed by harsh coughing.

"Lay down and drink this water!" Gokudera demanded, handing him the glass of water he had brought up earlier. He frowned, when Tsuna didn't take it. Juudaime was never sick, so he was really concerned.

"It's okay, really." Tsuna smiled, and began coughing again, and felt guilty when he saw Gokudera's upset expression. After all, he really couldn't say no to anyone. Sometimes he thought he was too nice. "Fine." Tsuna took the glass from Gokudera's hand, drank it in a few gulps, and set it down on the small table near the bed. When he laid back down, without warning Gokudera put his hand on Tsuna's forehead. Tsuna blushed slightly.

"Your fever seems to have went down a little… that's good." Gokudera smiled in relief.

"Yeah, I feel a bit better too." Tsuna returned the smile as Gokudera put his hand down at his side from Tsuna's forehead. He would stay near Juudaime until he was better.

"The cloth is drying, I'll go wet it again in the sink downstairs." he told Tsuna, as he stood up and grabbed the cloth off the bed and headed downstairs.

Gokudera would've went back up the stairs and given Tsuna the cloth, yet instead he was in thought and hadn't noticed anything until he heard a scream, and then looked up to see him tumbling. Tsuna fell down the stairs and knocked over Gokudera, landing on him.

"Oww…" the muffled words came from Tsuna, whose face was buried in Gokudera's neck. Tsuna's heavy breathing against Gokudera's neck made him shiver.

"That hurt…" Tsuna sat up, seated on Gokudera's… lower body. Gokudera's face went a dark shade of red. "Gokudera-kun?" Tsuna leaned down and felt his forehead, face inches away from his. "Are you sick? Your forehead isn't hot but your face is so red…" he looked puzzled.

"No… ah… I just can't breathe." Gokudera made an excuse, smiling weakly.

"Oh! I'm so sorry!" Tsuna quickly stood up, and wobbled. He began coughing into his sleeve and tripped again, Gokudera catching him swiftly as he stood.

"Eh- Sorry!" Tsuna blushed heavily, cheek against Gokudera's chest.

"Don't worry about it!" Gokudera laughed awkwardly, pushing Tsuna away. He frowned slightly for half a second, which Tsuna caught. He questioned the frown for a moment in his head, and then pushed that aside quickly. "Juudaime! I'll carry you back up the stairs. I want you to get better quickly."

"Oh, Yeah ok." Tsuna agreed, he wanted to get better soon so he could see Kyoko. He gasped as Gokudera lifted him bridal style. "W-What are you doing?!" "You're clumsy. Let me carry you." Gokudera laughed. Tsuna nodded slightly, and they began to walk up the stairs. "Oh, and Juudaime?" he waited for Tsuna to look up at him from in his arms. "We should go to the park when you get better, together…" his expression was a smile at first, then it faded to a slightly more serious expression.

"Yeah, okay. Sounds fun." Tsuna smiled, as Gokudera laid him down on his bed.

"Get some rest, Juudaime. I'll sleep on the floor." Gokudera smiled reassuringly, he wanted his Juudaime to rest and get better so they could go to the park together.

"No that's cruel! You could get a cold if you laid on the floor!" Tsuna disagreed, shaking his head as he sat up.

"Then where do you expect me to sleep?" Gokudera raised an eyebrow.

"You can sleep… beside me, if you want that is. I don't mind or anything…" Tsuna smiled at first, and the hid his face in his pillow, blushing.

"Are you sure, Juudaime?" Gokudera kneeled in front of the bed. "You don't have to be nice to me, you know."

"It's okay." Tsuna said slightly muffled from the pillow. Gokudera nodded, and Tsuna made room for him on the bed. Gokudera turned out the light, and laid beside him. He hadn't any sleep the night before, so a rest during the day would be good for them both.

"Have a nice nap, Juudaime. Tell me if you can't sleep, I'll move to the floor." Gokudera whispered into Tsuna's ear, and turned the opposite way, under the same covers as him.

"You too, Gokudera-kun. But don't worry, I really don't mind…" Tsuna replied, and soon enough the two of them drifted slowly, giving in to sleep.
