Blast Back into the Past

Chapter ten

Soon after Alaude and Tsuna returned to the mansion, they were being questioned about where they were? What were they doing? G was extremely worried because all the words coming out of his mouth were- (Is typing his words even legal? Uh, never mind-_-')

Thankfully, Giotto and Asari were able to calm the screaming man down.

''Alaude, I have a mission for you and Knuckle to go on. Report to my office ASAP.'' Giotto announced, with a serious look plastered on his face.

Alaude looked more than pissed off ''Can't Knuckle do the mission on his own. I need to stay here and protect, Usagi, from that pedophile.'' he said pointing to Daemon, who looked equally pissed off.

''Join the club. I have to go on a mission now. When I could be 'taking care' of Tsunayoshi~kun.'' Daemon said wiggling his hand over Tsuna's shouldered.

The big red mark showed on the small brown haired boys head ''Daemon, if you move you and any part of your body towards a centimetre towards me. I will personally make sure you never have any children.''

Getting the message, Daemon moved away from Tsuna and headed out for his mission. Just in case, Tsuna changed his mind and kicked him again.

The next day

Tsuna had found out that apart from G, all the guardians had left the mansion on missions. This made it very quiet, with the exception of G screaming at Giotto to do his- uh work. The lack of commotion made Tsuna feel a little empty, deep down he really enjoyed listening to G and Asari's one-sided arguments, they really reminded him of Gokudera-kun and Yamamoto. He also enjoyed Knuckle's occasional 'To The Extreme's, just like Ryohei and Lampo's sudden tantrums, just like Lambo's but not as bad. Along with Alaude's cold shoulder towards all of the guardians and 'Arrest you to death's, minus the 'arrest' made him think of Hibari-san.

Thinking of his Guardians made Tsuna feel homesick and before he knew it he was crying. He decided that it was okay to cry because no one was there to hear or see him. Or so he thought.

Giotto was hiding from G, so he could have a break from his work. He wasn't really hiding anywhere in particular, he just wanted to avoid G for as long as possible. As he was walking down one of the many hallways, the sound of crying came from one of the rooms. Putting his ears against the door of the room, where the sound was coming from, Giotto heard clearly that the person inside the room was crying. Figuring out where was by the paints and arrangement of vases, the blond haired boss, realised the room was the one he let Tsuna accommodate.

Tsuna unaware of the blond man outside his room, continued to cry until the door of his room was swung open. Surprised, the small brunette fell off the seat he was sitting on. Once he was able to sit up again, Tsuna saw Giotto standing in front of him with a face ull of concern.

''Tsuna, what's wrong? Did something happen?'' Giotto asked, kneeling down to the small boy's height.

Tsuna wiped the tears off his face and replied ''No, everything is okay. I was just starting to feel a little homesick. I really miss my friends, they were like family to me. No matter what happened, no matter what my situation was, they were always there for me but now I'm here on my own. I don't know what to do without them here. They make me stronger in a way I can never be on my own.''

Giotto looked at Tsuna, his face showing he understood what Tsuna was saying. He too, didn't know where he would be if he didn't meet G or the others. He didn't know what it would be like if he hadn't founded the Vongola. His friend and Familia make him stronger, whenever they need him he'd would be there for them and vice versa.

''I know what you mean. From my experience in life, I've learnt that you are at your strongest when protecting those who are dear to you. That's also part of the job of being a mafia Familia boss. Listen if you need to talk, or just want someone to listen to you, come find me, okay.'' Giotto said, with an understanding look and smile spread across his face.

Later that evening

Tsuna's room

After his talk with Giotto, Tsuna felt relieved of the feeling of emptiness he had.

Switching the light off, Tsuna got into bed and was ready to fall asleep. However, the closed his eyes, he noticed a dark figure in the corner of his room.

Terrified, Tsuna turned the lamp at his bedside on to see…

Haha a cliffy.
