Just for a little bit...
It had been an unexpected hit, fast and quick but he managed to kill the assassin. Not without some injuries though. Hayato was sure he wasn't quite dead yet but he was bleeding out a river from his bullet wound to the stomach that the looming fate probably wasn't so farfetched. Sliding down onto the floor so that he was sitting, he groggily groped for his phone and speed dialled Tsuna's phone number.
His lover of six years picks up, all bright and happy, "Hayato-kun!"
"Tsuna," he rasps out as he smiles at the chirpy tone.
Hayato knew that the pants and coughing he couldn't quite stop from escaping him immediately drew his Sky's attention and worry. The silver head tries to soothe them but it's already too late, he knew, when the other asks in a frantic plea, "Are you alright?!"
He hums in answer, his mind feels a little groggy, but ignores the question. "I love you, Tsuna. I love you so much you know?"
"Hayato, tell me where you are immediately!"
So he does slowly and with many pauses in between words while his mind starts growing fuzzy. But he's able to respond to the yelling on the phone.
"-ato! Hayato!"
"I love you," his voice is weaker now and he couldn't move at all but thankfully he had put the phone on speaker.
"I'm coming to get you with the medics! Just keep applying pressure to the wound and stay awake, okay?!"
He does what Tsuna instructs him to do but it gets harder to keep his eyes open after every blink and splotches of black and white appear in his vision.
Soon, he's completely on the floor and just lying there, breathing loudly and quickly. It was so hard to move now.
He closes his eyes despite the little voice in his head screaming for him to not.
"Just for a little bit," Hayato whispers to himself.
He can't quite remember what happens next but he thought he had heard a metallic bang and someone shouting his name.
