A/N: Hello. This is my first attempt of writing a story about KHR. Sorry it sucks so bad. Hey, I tried. When I first tried to watch KHR, 1827 caught my attention. I mean, what's with the Dive to World Opening! When Hibari appeared in that opening, I can't help but wonder why was Tsuna there and Hibari was looking at Tsuna and I saw a spark! J/K. Okay, anyways, here is my lousy story so please read.
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN Katekyo Hitman Reborn. Akira Amano owns it. Not me. :(
Chapter 1: The Drifting Solitary Cloud

"HIIEEEE!" Tsuna screamed as a familiar kick greeted him from his deep slumber.
"Screaming won't get you to school, Dame-Tsuna." Reborn said as his foot once again met Tsuna's head. Tsuna rubbed his head because of the impact it just received.
"Why didn't you wake me up earlier?" Tsuna complained.
"Be grateful I still woke you up, Tsuna."
"It's your fault I'm gonna be late!"
"Oh. Since it's my fault, Dame-Tsuna, let me make it up to you." Reborn reached Leon from his hat and once Leon turned into a gun, he pointed it to Tsuna. With that done, Tsuna changed his clothes as fast as he could and hurriedly ran downstairs to the kitchen and reached for his breakfast and said his goodbye.
"Goodbye, Kaa-san!" Tsuna hurried outside his house only to find Yamamoto and Gokudera standing beside the door.
"Juudaime!"
"Tsuna!"
"Yamamoto! Gokudera-kun! Why are you still here?" Tsuna asked.
"We waited for you, Tsuna! We walk you to school every day, isn't that what we always do?"
"Juudaime! As your RIGHT HAND MAN, it is my duty to escort you everywhere you go but THIS baseball IDIOT insisted on waiting for you too."
"You really don't have to do that. Because of me, you're going to be late too." When Tsuna said that, something clicked in his mind. Late… Late… Late! LATE! "LATE! We're going to be late!" Tsuna held their hands and began running towards their school.

...
The familiar tune echoed through the sky as our favorite little yellow fluffy bird flew in circles as its master was laying down on the rooftop of Namimori. Hibari laid there for a moment and closed his eyes and didn't even realize that he suddenly drifted to a deep sleep.
"Hibari-san…"
"…"
"Hibari-san…"
'Who is that annoying herbivore that calls out my name?' Hibari opened his eyes just to find that he is in vast plain and is surrounded mostly by grass and trees. "Where am I?"
"Hibari-san!"
'It's the herbivore from before…'
"Hibari-san!" said herbivore came running towards Hibari. The figure seems to be vague that Hibari can't even make out the image until the figure came nearer.
"Hibari-san! What are you doing? Let's go!" The image then became clear and Hibari's eyes widened. 'Sawada Tsunayoshi…' His eyes widened more when the image held his hands out and offered his hands to Hibari.
'This herbivore? Since when did the herbivore have the guts to even call my name?' Tsuna was smiling down at him and from Hibari's view, Tsuna was like the sky itself. Surrounding everything around it as its whole. Hibari was shocked when he suddenly realized that he unconsciously accepted the hand.
"Hibari-san, are you okay?" Tsuna's fore head met Hibari's as if to check his temperature. Hibari had that faint blush in his face but quickly regained his composure. "Hibari-san, why are you not talking to me? Do… Do you hate me?" Tsuna looked at Hibari and his eyes are starting to water. Hibari couldn't help but answer quickly for he couldn't stand the herbivore's crying face.
"I do not hate you, herbivore…" Hibari looked away and shocked from what he said to the herbivore.
"Thank goodness… I thought Hibari-san hates me. I'm so glad." With that said, Tsuna face inched closer to Hibari's until they can feel each other's breaths. Hibari was too shocked to even move when Tsuna's lips met his. And then-
Hibari jolted upright even though it wasn't like him. A dream. Why did I suddenly dream about the herbivore? Hibari then shook of the thought and as if in cue, Tsuna, Yamamoto and Gokudera came running towards the gate of the school. Hibari's heart beat unbelievably fast as soon as he saw Tsuna. Hibari jumped from the rooftop and landed on the ground gracefully. "Late comers are prohibited from this school. I'll bite you to death, herbivores."
"Hi-Hi-Hibari-san" Tsuna stuttered. This annoyed Hibari to no end. 'Why won't he say my name like in my dream?' When Hibari realized that he just thought of that, he was pissed and he lunged forward to punish the late comers and once again said his infamous line. "I'll bite you to death."
As he lunged forward, he readied his tonfas and went towards Tsuna's direction. Metal met flesh. Tsuna came flying until he crashed to the wall. "I-I-Itai, itai, itai…" Tsuna tried to stand but when he tried, his butt landed first at the ground. He can barely stand because of impact he just received.
Hibari, wide-eyed, realized what he had done. His chest unbearably hurt when he saw the herbivore before his eyes. He should have realized that the herbivore was so small, so weak and so fragile. One wrong move and you'll break him. He hated this. He becomes weak whenever he sees this person in front of him. "Get out of my sight, herbivore!"
"You, BASTARD! I'll make you eat shit!"
"Go-Gokudera-kun !"
"B-but, Juudaime! This bastard dared to hurt you!"
"Gokudera-kun, it's okay…" Tsuna smiled at Gokudera, masking the pain that was once there and still is.
…
Why did it turn out like this?
…
All I wanted was for you to call my name sweetly… but…
…
"H-H-Hibari-san… D-Don't worry… It won't happen again…" Tsuna choked out as it was hard to breathe because his whole body still hurts. Tsuna looked at Hibari with fear as if afraid of being hit again.
…
All I hear is a voice full of fear and pain …
…
Why do you easily show your smile to others? Why won't you show it to me? I want your smile to be directed to me only. Even though it's still the start, why am I always doing things wrong?
…
Why do I…
…
"Get out of my sight now before I'll drag you out of here myself!" Hibari said without his usual calm and monotone voice but you can sense that he's pissed beyond belief.
"Gokudera-kun, it's alright. Let's go." Tsuna said. He tried to stand but remembered that he can't.
"Juudaime! I'll carry you to the infirmary!" Gokudera offered.
"N-No, it's okay…"
"Tsuna, I think Gokudera's right. Let him carry you to the infirmary. You can barely stand." Yamamoto's usual cheerful attitude and that grin always plastered in his face became that of worry. "Hibari, I think you may have gone too far."
"Think? THINK? HE HAS OBVIOUSLY GONE TOO FAR, YOU IDIOT!" Gokudera said. He gave Hibari one last glare and then squatted. Tsuna looked at him curiously until Gokudera spoke. "Hop on, Juudaime!"
"E-Eh? I-I-I don't mean to t-trouble you, Gokudera-kun…" Tsuna said.
"Nope, it's okay Juudaime!" Gokudera insisted.
"Come on, Tsuna. I'll help you climb onto Gokudera's back." Yamamoto helped Tsuna hop onto Gokudera and with that done, Gokudera steadied himself and looked at Hibari's direction.
"We're not done, bastard!" And then they're gone.
"Herbivores…"
…
Why do I feel like this?
…
…
-WITH TSUNA AND THE TWO-
.
Gokudera and Yamamoto we're walking towards the infirmary and can't help but to worry about the little guy.
…
"D-Do you think Hi-Hibari-san hates me?" Tsuna asked. Both turned at Tsuna and what they saw made their heart break. Tsuna was smiling, yes, but it is a sad smile. His voice was pained. "What do you think I did to make him mad at me? Haha…"
"Y-You did nothing, Juudaime. That bastard is the one with issues."
"H-He's right, Tsuna." Yamamoto then smiled fondly at Tsuna. "Cheer up, Tsuna. Look at you. You look so dull with that face you're making right now. Brighten up! Without your light, we are nothing. We are hopeless. We depend in your smile. Our strength and weakness is that smile of yours that makes all our worries go away." He then hugged Tsuna and Gokudera since Gokudera was the one who was carrying Tsuna. "Your smile saved our life."
"Baseball idiot is right for once, Juudaime." When Yamamoto finally let go, he then looked outside the beautiful sky. "And, besides, the clouds are just moving endlessly in the atmosphere but wherever he goes, he is still joined to the lovely beautiful sky…" Pause. " I-It'd be best if we let him be, Juudaime… Hehe…"
"G-Gokudera-kun?" Tsuna looked at his friends and smiled wholeheartedly. "I am so lucky to have friends like you…"
"Me, too, Tsuna."
"Me, too, Juudaime… Me, too."
