Dino played with his fingers nervously, and looked at Romario. He immediately sat up, getting the attention of the person sitting beside him.
"Maybe we should postpone-"
The stern look his subordinate gave him told him otherwise.
Dino fell back to the seat, feeling the cushion against his back, and stared out of the car window.
He would like to get out of here, if there was a choice for him.
He saw kids playing by the roadside freely.
So he could not understand why he, an adult, must be forced to do something he did not want to do at all.
Like now. Marrying a person that he did not like very much.
Dino sighed, and looked around the car.
The driver was somebody that he had never seen before.
"You're new-"
The car suddenly went for a quick turn which resulted in the immediate crashing of the car into a brick wall, and the shattering sound of the car's windows being broken could be heard.
Luckily, Dino had held on tight to his seat, and was thus, safe. He turned, wanting to check if Romario was alright, but something occurred to stop him from doing so.
The car moved back, and drove straight into the wall again, for one last time.
The Cavallone Boss lost his consciousness.
Hibari stared at the fuming bride, and leaned back against the chair.
Dino was late. Very late.
His phone rang, and he supposed it must be his former teacher telling him how serious the traffic jam was and all, or some sort of stupid excuse.
Or maybe he had finally gained courage to run away.
He pressed the key, answering the phone.
Only to hear something he did not expect to happen today.
"Boss, he's gone."
"Ah Kyoya, do you remember the story that I had once told you?"
His former student looked at him, and shrugged.
"The love of a fire."
He felt a sudden stinging when he regained consciousness. It was coming from his head, probably his forehead.
Opening his eyes, he found that he was in a dark place.
He could not open his right eye. Something wet was forbidding him from doing so.
Blood, the smell told him so. He knew the coppery smell too well.
He tried to move his hand, but heard a clattering sound instead.
No, wait. This could not be true.
He tried to move his legs, and heard the same clattering sound.
His wrists were cuffed, and so were his ankles.
It was certainly uncomfortable to have his arms behind his back, and he just could not move at all.
Wait.
He was supposed to be on the way to the church.
The car...
Right, the suspicious driver.
Dino's left eye stung when something bright was brought close to him.
A person was squatting in front of him, with a smirk on his face.
The man's gloved hand was holding a candle stand. The hair which had the unique colour of blue, and the mismatched pair of eyes were what made Dino recognize who was the person before him immediately.

"Rokudo Mukuro."
"What happened to Romario?" Dino demanded, and Mukuro just rested the candle stand aside. He looked so carefree, which angered the Cavallone boss.
He bit his bottom lip hard, before continuing to yell at the Vongola illusionist. "Answer me! What's your in-"
"I guess you don't understand, Cavallone. You're in no place to ask something from me, or even trying to demand a simple answer."
Dino tried to break free from those cuffs on his wrists and ankles, which amused to Mukuro to no end. "If you succeed in breaking free of them, do tell me. I'll reward you."
Ah, the sarcasm which Dino hated much. "I doubt you've got the ability of giving anyone rewards."
Mukuro stared at Dino quizzically. Perhaps he really did not know what sort of situation he was in now. "The simplest reward, is a reward too. May I remind you of that, Cavallone?"
"Like what?" Dino felt pain rise from his cuffed wrists. They had probably turned red from all of the friction between the handcuffs and his wrists.
Mukuro suddenly leaned forward to him. It was certainly much too close for comfort.
There was silence, none of them spoke for a short while.
Breaths intermingling, Mukuro tilted Dino's chin upwards.
"Like-" Mukuro could see that Dino was glaring silently at him.
His other hand ran through Dino's bright-coloured hair seductively.
"A kiss...?" Mukuro's smirk turned wider, and he actually leaned in much closer than before.
Dino could already feel the slightest touch of Mukuro's lips, but he stood his ground. He wanted to maintain his calm composure.
"I would appreciate it if you-" Dino tried to move backwards, but he was already touching the wall.
He tried to push Mukuro off of him, but that thought was distinguished as it certainly suggested for this illusionist to do something more ridiculous than now.
"Get away from me," Dino hissed, his glare getting more intense.
Mukuro's unique laughter was heard again, and Dino nearly let out a sigh of relief when Mukuro moved away from him.
The blue-haired male walked further and further away, and before Dino could stop himself, he blurted out something he did not want to say out loud.
"Mukuro...! Where are you going...!"
He heard the footsteps of Mukuro stop, and he saw another candle stand being held in Mukuro's hands. "I see, the Cavallone tenth boss is going to depend on me now, right?"
Dino glared daggers at the proud illusionist, and his hands were closed tightly. "Dream on...! Continue dreaming, illusionist."
Mukuro raised a questioning eyebrow upon Dino's emphasized word, 'illusionist', and found that the Cavallone made a real source of entertainment for him.
"I wonder, who was the one that called Mukuro out loud earlier?"
Dino bit his bottom lip, and tried to refrain himself from cursing the illusionist out loud.
Mukuro lit the other candle stand, and light illuminated the place slightly. Dino could see where he was more clearly now.
"Where am I?" Dino asked, and was rather surprised at how soft his voice sounded.
Perhaps Mukuro's earlier words had worked into his mind without him knowing it.
"I guess you don't understand, Cavallone. You're in no place to ask something from me, or even trying to demand a simple answer."
Mukuro rested the candle stands on two spots, which lit up the surroundings. Dino could see that there were two small tables.
There was a big gap between those two candle stands, and Dino did not get why.
Mukuro noticed the continuous stare from him, and looked at the Cavallone, a finger reaching for his lips.
-.

"It's a secret."
Dino bit the insides of his cheeks at that answer which he thought was annoying, and noticed the smirk that was still on the illusionist's face. "This is not funny...! Let me go already, Rokudo Mukuro!" he snarled.
Mukuro suddenly went closer to Dino, and the Cavallone, on instinct, moved his legs closer to himself.
The illusionist, upon seeing this sight, smirked. "I'm not going to do anything to you, since you haven't done anything for me to give you any rewards."
Dino forced a smile out, trying his best to hide his murderous face behind that smile of his. "Am I wrong to feel pleased that I haven't done anything to get any rewards from you, mister?"
Mukuro just shrugged, and his left arm slid under Dino's knees and his other arm was wrapped around his back. "W-Wait, what are you-"
Dino immediately felt himself leaning onto something, and he was clever enough to realize that it was the chest of the illusionist who he really felt like biting to death.
Ah, his former student's catchphrase?
He finally understood what Hibari was thinking when he said he wanted to bite people to death. Because he certainly wanted to do exactly that to Mukuro.
"This is not what I expected. I thought you'd be as heavy as an elephant," Mukuro commented as he looked down at the Cavallone who he was carrying now.
Dino gritted his teeth, and cursed the illusionist silently. "Just let me go."
Seeing that the illusionist was bent on ignoring him, Dino neared Mukuro's shoulder out of impulse, and bit it as hard as he could.
Mukuro winced from the pain that blossomed on his shoulder, and sighed silently. "Are you a cat, Cavallone?"
Dino was ignoring him, and bit harder than before when Mukuro suddenly let go of him, causing him to fall behind. "Wha, you-"
He stopped his words when something soft touched his back. It was a bed. And he certainly could not speak, when Mukuro suddenly went falling towards him.
Dino shut his eyes immediately for a moment, and he could feel the bed jerking strongly at the sudden impact of two persons falling onto it in such a way.
He opened his eyes, and realized that the blood had dried already.
But that was not the important point.
Mukuro's hands were on the sides of his head, and Dino realized a little too late that Mukuro was straddling him.
He held his breath when the illusionist bent and went close to him again with that usual smirk plastered across his face.
Mukuro's face neared Dino's neck, his hot breath tickling fair, bared skin.
"You do love biting, don't you?"
Dino was about to protest that he certainly was not a cat until Mukuro cut in with a sentence that made him speechless.

"Did I ever mention to you that I love licking...?"
