Almost Forgotten Birthday
By Flamewater
Today was September ninth and Gokudera decided against letting anyone know that today is his birthday.
"Juudaime's birthday is October fourteenth." Gokudera commented calmly and smiled faintly before sighing for others tend to forget Tsuna's birthday.
'Reborn's birthday is October thirteenth. Yamamoto's birthday is April twenty fourth. Ryohei's birthday is August twenty sixth. Hibari's birthday is May fifth. Lambo's birthday is May twenty eighth. Chrome's birthday is December fifth.' Gokudera mentally thought to himself and he walked towards Tsuna's house. 'I wish my birthday was sometime in October instead of being in September.'
"Hey, Juudaime." Gokudera said cheerfully and he smiled brightly at Tsuna. "I wish my birthday month had been October instead of being in September."
'Wait a minute….This month is September.' Tsuna briefly thought and after a minute his brain went click. 'Today is Gokudera's birthday and I almost forgot it.'
"Happy birthday, Gokudera." Tsuna told him and he received a smile.
'Gokudera always let's me know the day before about a person's birthday by talking about it and by him doing that I recieve enough time to get a gift, but he never mentions his birthday the day before.' Tsuna thought to himself as he looked at Gokudera and held back a sigh. 'I wish that I could at least remember his birthday. I feel like such a bad friend.'
"You're the only one that doesn't forget my birthday, Gokudera." Tsuna replied simply and decided against telling Gokudera he had almost forgotten it. "Come on inside, Gokudera."
"Thank you, Juudaime. You are the first one to wish me a happy birthday." Gokudera commented happily as he walked inside and Tsuna gave him a sheepish smile.
"So, Gokudera. What do you want to do for your birthday?" Tsuna asked him and he received a cheerful smile.
"I want to show you that I know how to make a cake." Gokudera replied calmly and he added happily. "I do not need anything special on my birthday, Juudaime."
"Um, Gokudera. To be honest I had forgot your birthday. I also forgot the others birthday's too and if you didn't saything anything...I wouldn't have been able to get them a gift." Tsuna decided to say and he was stunned to see he recieved a smile.
"I know. I'm sorry for not letting you know about my birthday until I hinted at it about five minutes ago, but I didn't want you to spend money on me." Gokudera commented honestly and Tsuna stared at him with wide eyes. "You being alive and healthy is good enough for me, Juudaime."
Tsuna was speechless and Gokudera smiled at him. There was a knock on the door, Tsuna wordlessly answered it, and Yamamoto walked inside with a gift.
"Hi, Tsuna. I figured that Gokudera would be here since he was not at his apartment or at the park muttering to the birds." Yamamoto commented cheerfully as he handed the gift over to Gokudera and smiled at him. "I got you gift. Hey, Tsuna. What did you get for Gokudera?"
'I didn't give him anything at all. I feel so bad and terrible.' Tsuna thought to himself and he looked at the floor. 'Yamamoto remembered and he got Gokudera a gift.'
"You are fucking rude, Baseball freak. It is none of you damn business about what Juudaime got me. Just to let you know I'm happy with it." Gokudera snapped at him and he was standing in front of Tsuna. "So don't you dare ask him that question again or I'll kick your ass."
"Okay, Gokudera. I won't ask and I'm sorry, but I was curious." Yamamoto said calmly and Gokudera glared at him. "Happy Birthday, Gokudera."
Tsuna sighed to himself, Gokudera opened the gift, and looked at Yamamoto.
"Thanks, but why the hell did you waste your money on buying me camera." Gokudera said to him and his arms were crossed.
"It was on sale." Yamamoto commented calmly and smiled brightly. "It was not a waste of money, Gokudera."
Gokudera gave him an annoyed look and set the camera down on the counter. Tsuna noticed that Yamamoto was sighing to himself.
"Juudaime, Can you test the camera out? I'll be making a cake and prove to you I know how to make one." Gokudera said cheerfully and Tsuna glanced at Yamamoto who was smiling sadly for a moment.
"Tsuna, What did you get Gokudera last year?" Yamamoto asked quietly as he looked at Tsuna. "He kept on saying it was the best gift ever, but never said what the gift was that you gave him."
'Last year I didn't give him anything. I had found out last minute last year too and had no time to get him a gift at all.' Tsuna briefly thought and he could recall the smile on Gokudera's lips along with the words of You Do Not Have To Give Me A Gift. 'Last year he didn't explain his reason. Should I tell Yamamoto or not?'
