A/N: Sorry for the late update, I didn't have the time before! Anyways, here is the tenth chapter! I hope you will enjoy it!
Evidently I don't own DC!
Chapter ten : Feelings
In the nearly complete darkness, Conan and Tsuna moved precociously one of the pack on the hallway and while Conan wrote on it, the other boy explained to Agasa what he had to do. Once the chibi detective finished his writing, the two little boys lifted the pack precociously as they stood up on the back bench and Agasa hold them to keep them stable. When the bus finally left the tunnel, they raised the pack above their heads. The terrorists soon noticed them and as one prevented the other to shot at the kids, Conan shouted a "Hurry!".
The driver finally watched at his driving mirror and saw the word "STOP" on the yellow pack hold by two kids, one with a blue cap that hid his face and the other with glasses who seemed to be the one who had shout. He immediately understood the message and pressed with force the pedal brake. The three terrorists were violently threw down but Tsuna and Conan remained steady thanks to Hakase.
They slowly put down the bomb and Conan ordered Araide to stop the woman too since she was the accomplice while he knocked out one of the terrorist with his stun-watch. Jodie disarmed the other one. All the passengers sighed in relief but it soon ended as the accomplice exclaimed in fear:
"Oh no! We have to run! My watch had been hit! The bomb will explode in less than one minute!"
They all exited the bus in a hurry but two kids staid, unnoticeable in the bus: Haibara and Tsuna. The girl because she thought it would be better if she killed herself, so the B.O will stop search for her. Tsuna staid too because of his exhausted self he couldn't run or just walk anymore. He was already tired because of his restless nights and the adrenaline of the action added to this.
Tsuna was leaning on the back bench and he suddenly caught the blurry sight of Conan aiming the windscreen with the automatic, shoot at it and took Haibara's hand before running to the hole. The sound of the bullet and the sensation of the pieces of the window falling at him made Tsuna standing, fully aware of his surroundings and he quickly followed the others as Conan jumped out of the bus with one thought on his mind to stay awake 'I'm not going to die here!'
His jump was followed by a huge explosion and the blast threw him a few meters away as his cap flew off his head. He hopefully managed to have a good reception and immediately started to search for his cap, freaked out by the fact there was a lot of people around him and They could be here. When someone gently put his cap on his head, he looked up to see Conan smiling at him.
"Here Kirimaro."
"Thanks Conan-kun." Replied weakly Tsuna as his vision started to blur again but his Pokerface still didn't show anything.
"It was pretty dangerous. Why had you stay in the bus when everyone was leaving it?"
"Geez… It wasn' like if I wanted-"
Someone suddenly bumped on Tsuna and he fell on the ground, not reacting. He heard voices calling him.
"Kirimaro!" "Tsuna-kun!"
He identified the voices as Hakase, Conan and Araide but before he could answer, a welcoming darkness surrounded him and he lost consciousness.
Conan's POV
Kirimaro suddenly fell on the ground when Araide-sensei bumped on him but he didn't even react when he hardly hit the floor. Both of me, Araide-sensei and Hakase, who was near us , ran to him, worried. But he didn't move.
"Kirimaro!" "Tsuna-kun!" we both shouted but he didn't opened the eyes.
It worried me. Why was he unconscious if he apparently hadn't hurt himself in the explosion? I suddenly remembered the moment when I had returned into the bus to save Haibara. Kirimaro was lying on the back bench, seeming to be very exhausted.
"Agasa-san, did something happened lately to Tsuna-kun?" asked Araide-sensei.
"Well, he seemed to have a lack of sleep even if he tried to hide it." Answered Hakase thoughtfully.
"But in the check-up he was perfectly healthy!"exclaimed surprised Araide-sensei.
No, I thought, he wasn't good. I remembered when Kirimaro had returned in class. He was pale and had seemed to be angry at someone or something. He had almost told me what it was about but the bell had rang and he had ran away. He didn't talk about it after, like nothing had happened. But Haibara did told me that something was wrong with him since that day. And after, bags had begun to appear under his eyes even if his smile was still in place. Moreover, that reaction when the hijacker had asked him his phone, it didn't suit to him either. Raah! Enough with that! Kirimaro needed to be transport to the hospital! Wait, he didn't like hospitals, right? What to do?
"It should be better if you took him at home Agasa-san. He's just exhausted. What he need is rest. Besides, he told me he feared hospitals, so…"
"Okay, we will do that then."
Twenty minutes later, we were at Hakase's house and Haibara helped us to install Kirimaro in his bed. I was a little surprised when I discovered the room. The others times I had went there, it was dark. But now, I could only see a few mangas in a corner of the room but the rest was empty, even the grey walls. There was no kiddy things it would have in normal kid's room. But I couldn't think about it further more as the bell rang. We went to open it and were surprised to see a worried Ran.
"Are you okay guys?! I heard you were caught in a hijacking by Sato-san!"
"Yes we are Ran-kun. There is just Tsuna-kun who fainted because of exhaustion. Are you here to pick-up Conan-kun?" asked Hakase.
I winced at these words. I wanted to ask questions to Kirimaro. But seeing Ran's expression, I knew it wouldn't be possible.
"Un. It's getting late. So we will leave you. Goodnight!" answered Ran as she took my hand and we left.
I just had the time to said a " 'night Haibara, Hakase." before the door closed.
Narrator's POV
Tsuna slowly opened his eyes as sunlight awoke him. He turned in his bed, groaning. He took a look at his alarm clock and quickly sat up in his bed. He was fully awake now and agreeably surprised. The screen indicated 11:00a.m. It meant that he had slept more than twelve hours without nightmares! As he looked at his room, he noticed the strawberry-haired girl staring at him on the doorway.
"Hey! Good morning Haibara-san." He tried with a weak smile against the cold glare.
"Good morning to you too Kirimaro-kun." icy voice coming out of the girl.
"So, why are you here and not with Hakase?"
"Because I thought it would be good to have a talk with you."
Tsuna gulped as Haibara sat at his empty desk.
"W-What do you want to talk about?" he asked, looking away.
"I think you know pretty well."
"The bus hijacking?" tried Tsuna, seeing an opportunity to reverse the situation.
"W-What? No, it's something-"
"Because I want to talk about it!" cut her an angry Tsuna and Haibara was sure it wasn't faked. "Why had you stayed in the bus even after everyone had left?! And don't say it was because of me! I'm pretty sure you didn't even know I was there! So why?!" Tsuna was now crying and it took aback the little scientist.
"I…"
"You didn't even thought about me or Hakase or your friends!" Tears were running on Tsuna's cheeks. The nervous exhaustion from the last days had overwhelmed him and the declaration had shocked both of him and Haibara.
"You're the person with Hakase who are like my family! Don't you understand?! The last weeks, I learned to appreciate you and considerate you like a sister! What if you've been killed?! I'd already lost my family! I don't want to lose you or Hakase too!" he then broke down, crying his heart out.
Haibara was shocked. She had never seen the boy showed his emotions like that and she didn't know what to do. So she did as her sister did when she was crying. She went to Tsuna and gently hugged him. Startled, the boy looked up at her to see an apologetic, rare, smile on the girl's face.
"I'm sorry. I didn't think about your feelings nor about the other's."
They staid like that until the boy once again fell asleep on Haibara's arms. She gently lied him under his blanket and silently left the room.
