LINEBREAK
Cielo walked through the halls of Vongola Mansion at a calm pace. Belle and Forza flanking his sides. He held his head high, his kimono flowing elegantly, hands clasped together in front of him. He kept his expression neutral as he walked through the pristine hallway, following the guide to where Nono wished to hold their meeting. While walking, Cielo's mind played back to Kawahira's last visit.
Flashback Start
Cielo didn't look up from the book he was reading as he felt his bed sink slowly next to him. In his peripherals, he saw Kawahira laying on the bed next to him before arms circled around his hips and face pressed into his abdomen. Cielo suppressed a slight shiver as he closed the book and laid it on the bed side table.
"Kawahira…" Cielo greeted softly as he ran a hand through the silver-grey hair on the being's head. Kawahira's eyes opened sluggishly and stared up at him, sharp yet soft to Cielo.
"Il mio cielo prezioso…" He whispered softly, burying his face back into Cielo's abdomen. Cielo's breath hitched lightly as his nuzzled the navel with his nose delicately. "Soon I won't be able to keep you to myself any longer…" Kawahira murmured as Cielo ran his fingers soothingly though his hair. Cielo remained silent as the arms encircled around his hips tightened slightly. "No matter how much I wish to… I cannot… why did you have to be born a mere human…" Cielo closed his eyes as he gently took a hold of Kawahira's head and made him look up at him.
"Ka~wa~hi~ra-sama…" Cielo breathed out softly, his eyes remaining closed. Kawahira's pupils dilated at how Cielo spoke his name. Sitting up carefully, Kawahira pressed their foreheads together and cupped Cielo's face. Cielo slowly opened his bright amber eyes as a flame flickered to life above his heads, intertwining with the crackling silver flame that sparked into life above Kawahira's. Slowly Cielo fed Kawahira his sky flames and the crackling silver flames calmed.
"I don't want to share you… but I must... I don't want to but I must…" Kawahira breathed out, slipping into a low mantra. Cielo's amber eyes just stared half lidded into his.
"You didn't have to… but you did…" Cielo whispered and Kawahira's eyes sparked, widening slightly. They softened and soon Cielo found himself being embraced tightly by the man. Remain still for a moment before slowly encircling his arms around Kawahira's chest and returning the hug, rubbing soothing circles into the man's back. "You didn't have to but you did…" He repeated once more and felt the hug tighten a fraction as Kawahira gave slight trembles.
Flashback End
Cielo reached a hand up to cover the yawn he gave. He knew he owed a lot to Kawahira, he really did. If not for Kawahira, his life most likely would have been filled with torment from one man. A man he held no desire to face just yet, regardless of how many years it has been.
"Vongnola Nono is waiting for you inside." Cielo looked up and saw that they had stopped at double mahogany doors that were most likely the man's office. Nodding, he waited for the man to open the doors before him and his canine companions. Cielo nodded his gratitude before entering the office with Bella and Forza.
"Ah, Cielo, a pleasure to finally meet." Cielo looked to the man that stood behind a desk before nodding and small smile. Cielo could see the man's guardians in strategic points in the room, even the hidden mist guardian that was outside his field of view. He only knew he was there because of his saturating sky flames that brushed in acknowledgement against their flames. Nono gave a grandfatherly smile as he gestured to the seat across from his. Cielo made his way to it and gracefully sat. Forza sat next to his feet while Bella stood, glancing around the room, ears twitching.
"The pleasure is all mine, Vongnola Nono." Cielo smiled as he placed his hands neatly atop his lap. "I must say I was quite surprised to have received a summons from you." He explained. Nono's smile lost a bit of its charm as he clasped his hands together and propped his elbows up on his desk.
"Yes I think you will find this meeting quite informative for both parties."
LINEBREAK
Cielo's head was spinning after the meeting with Nono. They spoke about flames, the mafia, the Vongola's morals and goals, why it would beneficial to ally a powerful sky flame as himself with them and finally the arcobaleno. Kawahira had told him that he had already set the plan in motion for Cielo to meet one of the Arcobaleno. All it took was for one to find him and the rest would follow. It just so happened that the one he would soon meet was the Sun pacifier holder, Reborn. Cielo sighed as he rubbed gently at his temple to try and soothe the budding headache.
He was sat out in the Vongola gardens, on a stone bench with Belle laid out at his feet and Forza sat next to his leg, gently nudging them when the hand petting him slowed to a stop.
"A fine mess this is huh, Forza?" Cielo mumbled as he ruffled the over grown fluff balls ears. Forza tilted his head back and nipped at Cielo's arm playfully, tail thumping loudly.
'I suppose it is good that he is not fully aware that I am the new sky arcobaleno and just a very strong sky flame user…' Cielo thought idly as he stared up at the leaves of large shade providing tree. Cielo would be staying for lunch with Nono and a few of his trusted contacts. Sighing he actually thought about all that Nono told him about the Vongola.
