Lock: Sweet! Katekyo Hitman Reborn! story on the way!

Hibari: Who gave you permission to write this, herbivore?

Lock: Do not make me turn you into an uke in this Kyoya!

Hibari: *Slinks off*

"Japanese"

"Italian"

'Thoughts'

(Notices)


...The warm, large, tan hands slid down a pale body, lingering over the most sensitive areas. The lax figure on the large bed moaned and mewled at the odd feeling. The hands paused on the figure's hips, holding them down as the figure tried to buck up against the larger, more muscular body hovering above.

"Hayato, tell me what you want." A smooth baritone voice commanded from the mouth of the larger form.

"...Ne, you, please!..." The Storm guardian, recently discovered to be the bottom figure, managed to pant out between breathes.

"Be more specific kitten." The voice ordered from above the half-Italian's head.

"I want you inside of me! Please!" The bomber wantonly begs.

"Say my name." The voice demanded.

Hayato opened his eyes and pleaded once more, "Takeshi!"


Hayato Gokudera suddenly woke with a start and promptly growled. 'The same stupid dream every fucking night,' the frustrated bomber thinks, 'Why won't it just stop?'

A while had gone by since the Vongola's inner Family had their last adventure, freeing the seven now-curse-free Arcobaleno from their curse, and all were extremely thankful for the peace. The youngest guardian, Lambo, was now seven, and Takeshi Yamamoto, Tsunayoshi Sawada, Hayato Gokudera, and Ryohei Sasagawa had all turned seventeen. Mukuro Rokudo and Kyoya Hibari were currently eighteen and nineteen, respectively.

The Shimon Family, whose members once attemped to destroy the Vongola, became close friends with their Vongola counterparts. Emna and Tsuna have remained being the best of friends, and the Shimon Guardians soon adapted to the regular abnormality that is life in Nanimori.

The former Arcobaleno began to have random growth spurts a month or so after the curse was removed. The growth rate varied, though the random spurts of growth ended about two months after it began. However, a side effect was that it put all of the former babies at differing ages.

Reborn appeared to be around ten after the odd events ended, while Colonello seemed close to twenty. Mammon, along with Fon, grew to be twenty-two or -three. Skull ended up as a seventeen-year-old, though Verde was reported to be close to twenty-seven.

Tsuna Sawada still acted much like his former 'Dame' self. Even so, everyone noticed that he was doing much better in school, academically and sports-wise. No one dared to pick on him anymore, even when his friends weren't present.

Mukuro Rokudo soon transferred to Nanimori after the Arcobaleno curse was lifted, much to Hibari's delight/anger (everyone immediately assumed that it was because he wanted to fight the illusionist again), and to the rest of the Mafia's absolute horror.

Chrome Dokuro, along with Ken, Chikusa, M.M., and Fran, still followed Mukuro's commands. She no longer had problems with her organs, and all traces of bad health vanished.

Ryohei Sasgawa continued boxing, much to his sister's worry, but his experiences with Tsuna and the other Guardians made him far stronger that any of his opponents. Along with the passage of time came a slightly more mature personality, but no one could say that they really minded the change.

Lambo had mellowed out some, though he stil maintained his regular habits for the most part. Like stalking Reborn, even though Reborn mostly ignored his presence.

Kyoya Hibari, retaining his position as the keeper of peace even after graduation, kept picking fights with any he deemed to be strong enough (like Mukuro or Dino). Dino often came to visit the Cloud Guardian, and often ended up fighting him as well. By sheer 'coincedence', he normaly only visited when Basil, part of the outside advisors for the Vongola, came by.

And last but not least, the Rain Guardian, Yamamoto Takeshi, the current object of Hayato's affections. Almost everything about the tall male remained the same, except for a rather prominent scar on his chin that the baseball idiot gained on a mission.

Hayato Gokudera groaned, burying his pale, girlish face in his equally pale and fine-boned hands as the images from his arousing dream came back with a vengance. Every time the Storm Guardian looked in the mirror, he was disturbed to appear as if he was even more feminite than when he was fifteen. The intelligent dynamite-user saw several of the male population at school give him lusty looks, but none ever came from his crush.

Truthfully, it pissed him off. Yamamoto had at least thirty fangirls, but he never seemed bothered when the swarmed him after or before (hell, it happened during a game, Hayato grumbled to himself) a baseball game. But every time Gokudera got within a foot of him, he started to show obvious signs of being uncomfortable. The bomber often speculated why that could be, but there never seemed to be an answer to his problem.

Was it because Hayato was to obvious with his crush? The answer: not possible. The only person that even possibly knew would be Reborn, though Tsuna seemed suspicious of the prospect.

Could he just be uncomfortable with any guy getting close to him? Again, it's a no. He still often slings and arm around people's necks when he sees them. This habit includes guys, well, all guys besides Gokudera.

Did he return Hayato's crush? Definitely not. He overheard the yakyubaka and his other yakyabaka friends discussing girls and their body parts and having sex with a girl.

Was he embarassed to be seen around Hayato? Possible. After all, many people considered the half-Italian boy odd. His smarts and attitude proved to still be an extreme contridiction, and most students whispered about him and the 'Mafia' he was apart of. Gokudera inwardly snorted at the stupidity of the idiotic teenagers around him, believing the Vongola to be a simple game.

But really, when did something like that start bothering the swordsman? Still, it was the only reasonable explanation the love-struck Guardian had.

The dynamite-user checked the clock before groaning. He had school today, and there was only a half-hour left before Hayato needed to meet up with his friends in twenty minutes in front of Tsuna's house. And yes, you aren't delusional. Gokudera finally started to call the short Decimo by his name.

Standing quickly, Hayato grabbed something to wear. Today, he decided upon a long-sleeve, button-up black dress shirt, white skinny-jeans, black boots with skulls decorating them, and a red belt with a skull-like buckle. The bomber also decided to wear an open red zip-up vest, with skulls decorating the collar, overtop of his shirt. Satisfied with his chose of attire, he closed the door to his room to take a qick shower.

'The only good thing that came from Mukuro transferring to our school,' Gokudera thought happily, 'Is that he threatened the principal into letting us wear what we wanted.'
