Ghostly Encounter
Life Together Part 5
Tsuna slammed the front door shut. His eye's gaze stayed on the door knob where his hand was still held. He put his other hand on his chest and took a deep breath.
It has been a few days since Gokudera fell unconscious. Truly, his friend was showing no signs of improving. Gokudera would lay in that same spot in the bed without moving a finger. Gokudera's body temperature had turn relatively normal, but he was getting paler. Way paler than he usually was. Tsuna was not a doctor or anything, but he knew that was not a good thing. Gokudera was basically a breathing corpse.
At first Tsuna wanted to spend Gokudera to a hospital. But what could he tell the doctors? Trying to explain that his best friend is in a coma because of some supernatural powers would only land Tsuna in some mental place. That is not even saying that he could see and lived with a ghost.
Tsuna started jogging down the sidewalk. His next bet was to find that creepy lady he met in the alley. She was able to sense G, so she might know what to do with Gokudera. The lady might even have a cure. Tsuna did not know what he would do if Gokudera died on him.
A few people pasted him by. Tsuna was honestly shock when he saw them. He has been in his house for three days taking care of Gokudera. In those three days, he had felt like he had accessed another world. A world where G, Gokudera, and him were the only inhabitants. Surprisingly no body knocked on their door or called. Tsuna's boss knew that he was going to be out for the week. Yamamoto was probably doing his own thing. And Hibari...
Hibari.
Tsuna shook his head a she increased his pace a little. Hibari has not tried to contact him since that message he sent. Sorry? Tsuna wanted badly to talked to Hibari now. He wanted to tell Hibari that there was really no reason for him to apologize. Tsuna was the one being...well...a herbivore. He knew that Hibari was probably worried. He was probably terrorizing his students right now just to hide the fact that he was worried.
After a couple of minutes, Tsuna was out of breath, but he was close. His lips widened at the thought that he was close to helping Gokudera. Nothing could stop him now. Nothing could scare him this time. Tsuna counted every building he walked passed. He also looked around. Hardly no one was walking around this part of town. It was like a ghost town all of sudden. Tsuna slapped himself on the head. There was no time to be worrying about other people.
When Tsuna reach the alley and saw that wooden house, he almost could not believe it. It was right in the same position where he left it. Honestly, there was a small part of him that thought it was going to be like in the movies. The ones where you find this creepy person but the minutes you turn around, they are gone.
He watched to much television.
The lady sat on the stairs, fanning herself with a small paper fan. It was not even hot outside. She did not even acknowledge Tsuna's presence as he walked close to her.
"Excuse me." Tsuna said. "Miss?"
The lady looked at Tsuna. "How can I help you boy?"
"HIEE!" There was something in her eyes that scared Tsuna. No! He was not going to get scared. "I-It's me. The guy form a couple days ago."
"The one with the ghost?"
Tsuna blinked. "Ghost? G- yeah. That's me!"
She stopped fanning herself. "So what do you want, ghost boy."
Was it him or was she kind of different today? "I have this friend- he's not my ghost friend-, and he is now in a coma." Tsuna hope he was making sense. "My ghost friend did something to him and now he's been in a coma for three days now."
"You are babbling now boy. I can't understand you. Do you want to get rid of your ghost?"
Get rid of G? "No! Do you know how to wake my other friend, Gokudera, up? I can't stand seeing him like this?! Please."
The lady put her hand on Tsuna's shoulder. He had to wonder when did she get so close to him. Tsuna looked up to see that he was already close to the front door. This whole time he must of was steadying getting close to the house.
"Boy," The lady started. "You come here with no 'hello or 'good afternoon' demanding me to help your friend. Does that not seem rude?"
Suddenly Tsuna felt a cold chill pass him by. "I-I'm sorry ."
The lady smiled. It was kind of weird and warm to Tsuna. "I'm sorry, but there is nothing I can do to help your friend. There is nothing wrong with him to begin with."
Tsuna stopped the lady;s hand away from his shoulder and took a few steps back. This lady could not be serious. Nothing was wrong with Gokudera?! "How can you say that when you haven't even seen him yet?!"
The lady waved her hand in the air. "He'll wake up when he wants to, so stop worrying about him. But what I really want to talk about is that ghost friend of yours."
It seemed like her eyes glowed for a second. Tsuna could not take it anymore. He will find someone else to help Gokudera. "Uh...excuse me!" Tsuna turned around and ran away. He ran hoping she would not follow him.
It felt like last time that night. Once, Tsuna was running away from the creepy lady like she was some monster. Well, now that thought about it, she could be one. The way her eyes glowed just was not normal. It was scary.
Tsuna must of ran for ten minutes straight ( or at least if felt like it). His chest was burning up and his lungs must of wanted to slap him. He never ran so much until today. Tsuna looked back behind him.
At least he was from away from that lady.
If she was not going to help him, he was going to save Gokudera by himself.
"Tsunayoshi?"
Tsuna looked up and saw Hibari standing right in front of him. His boyfriend was wearing a simple black slacks and a white blouse. That meant he did not go to work today.
Oh great.
G stared himself in the bathroom mirror. He pinched his(?) cheeks. He rolled his hair(?) with one of his fingers(?).
No matter how G looked at it, he had somehow entered Gokudera's body. Especially the fact that he was hosting someone's body. At least he knew a hundred percent now that he had ghostly superpowers.
"What would Tsunayo-" G quickly covered his mouth and then sighed. At least he kept his voice. He would hate to of had Gokudera's voice too, but what would Tsunayoshi think of this when he came home? G trapped inside Gokudera's body. He would probably freak out, but at least he would be happy that Gokudera was not dying.
Yeah.
G touched his chest. He really did not understand completely, but he could sense Gokudera presence was still inside this body. And this would be the perfect chance to help him to.
He did not want to though. This was his only chance.
G stepped out the bathroom and to the front door. After so many years of being stuck in this house, he would finally be free! Even if it was for a few minutes, G did not car. He finally was alone to go outside. He was going to see the world in his own eyes.
G spread his hands out and felt the door. He took another deep breath before reaching for the door knob and pulled the front door open.
It was sunny outside. Just like he remembered it being. A few people were walking around. One man was briskly walking with his phone in his ear. Another was pushing her baby in a stroller. An old woman nodded her head at G as a sign of greeting. G did not answer her though.
It felt so weird to see people who could see you back.
Everything was so peacefully awkward. The whole house was silent. Tsuna sat on his knees and leaned his arms on the small wooden table planted in the middle of the room.
The side doors were pushed to the side; giving a view of Hibari's beautiful small garden and fish pound. Tsuna remembered the first time he ever came to Hibari's house. He was shocked at how old-fashioned it was. Hibari was from a traditional family so that was to be expected, but still, it amazed him. It made him feel special.
Now Tsuna was here again and all Tsuna wanted to do was run away.
He wanted to talk to Hibari and straighten things out between them, but not now. Tsuna was not ready yet. Especially with Gokudera condition and everything. What was he going to say? How was he going to explain what had happen when Tsuna could not really understand himself. The whole walk here they did not say anything to each other. Hibari wanted to talk to him. At his home where Tsuna could not easily 'run away'.
Tsuna watched as Hi-bird, Hibari's small pet bird, slept on the top of the bookshelf on the other side of the room. He wished he could be that calm. Tsuna hoped that Hibari would hurry up. He had to get home soon and take care of Gokudera.
As if he read Tsuna's mind, two seconds later Hibari came in the room .He had switched his slacks and blouse for a navy blue kimono. He stared at Tsuna the whole time he walked, like he was daring Tsuna to run away. He folded his arms across his chest and sat across from Tsuna.
Tsuna looked down at the spotless floor and started playing with his fingers. "Um, Kyoya." It was so awkward. He could not tell if Hibari was mad at him or was just being his regular self. "I know I been missing work lately, but I promise I'll be back by next week."
"That's good." Hibari was still looking straight at him. "I was starting to think you were avoiding me."
Tsuna started rubbing the back of his head. "That night, at our date, I was not feeling well and-"
"I'm not letting you leave me."
Huh? Tsuna arms felt to his sides. Did Hibari really think what he was going to break up with him? Sure Tsuna has been ignoring him for the last couple of days, but that was because...because..because Gokudera was sick.
"Kyoya, I'm not breaking up with you." Tsuna forced himself to let out a laugh. "I been sick lately that's all. Besides Reborn would kill me if I suddenly left you."
That was all a lie, but he hoped Hibari would believe it.
"You're lying to me Tsunayoshi." Hibari said as his eyes narrowed.
Tsuna flinched and almost fell unto the floor. Hibari already could tell he was lying and that caused him to get angrier. " I'm not lying! I am really sick."
"You look healthy to me."
"That's because I been taking medicine."
"Tsunayoshi, stop it." Hibari stood up. "I'll stop asking you to move in with me."
Tsuna backed away as Hibari took a step closer to him. Tsuna was getting nervous and kind of worried at what Hibari was about to do. "Kyoya?"
"I'll stop bothering-" Hibari bent down right in front of Tsuna. "with everything, so-" Hibari grabbed each side of Tsuna's face with his hands and pulled him in for a kiss.
To be continued in the next chapter
This chapter was really suppose to be longer than this, but it would of taken me an extra week or two just to find time to type it all. Between classes, homework, and work, I hardly have time to do anything.
