Dark
"BWAHAHA! This is Lambo's candy!"
"Lambo don't take!"
Tsuna sighs miserably when he see's Lambo and I-pin running around his room as Lambo tries to get away from I-pin. Tsuna looks back down on the half-finished homework in front of him and rubs the back of his head tiredly.
He knew that if he didn't finish Reborn would probably threaten to blow his brains out. He laughs wryly and looks at the window next to him.
The stars were twinkling brightly and the moon shone in its brightest light. This gave Tsuna some motivation as he turns back to his paper and starts to write down his answers.
He, briefly, wonders what you were doing right about now.
'Alright {Name} don't panic. Don't panic! It's just a little blackout; the light will soon come back again.'
You repeat to yourself as you bury your head in the pile of sheets that was laid on top of your body. Were you hot? Yep, but you were NOT going to take the chance and poke your head out of the numerous sheets that protected you from the outside.
You see not a minute ago a blackout decided to occur when you were typing up new codes. Of course, you didn't mind them being deleted because you had practically memorized them by heart. What you were hiding from was…the dark.
You knew that a girl like you, who has seen so much more gruesome things than the dark, should be as tough as nails but you've watch enough horror movies to know that when the night time comes supernatural things will occur.
You weren't afraid to admit that you were scared. In fact you took pride in knowing that you still could be frightened by unknown objects because if you put it in CIA terms this would technically mean 'Hey, look at me I'm in the CIA and I still have emotions! Where's my gold medal?' or something like that.
You quivered and squirmed when you heard something or someone scratching on your bedroom window. You quickly took out your phone and dialed the number that you knew could calm down your growing nerves.
Tsuna sighs in contentment as the last of his homework goes into his bag. He stands up and stretches his tired muscles from sitting down when his cell phone rings.
He takes the device out of his pocket and eyes it questioningly. Who could be calling him at—Tsuna looks at his alarm clock on his desk—11:00 p.m.? He shrugs and flips open the cell phone and bring it up to his ear.
"Hello?"
"Tsu-kun."
Tsuna smiles when he hears the familiar voice and takes a sit on his bed.
"{N-Name}-Chan, How are you?"
"Oh, just fine."
"That's good to hear. S-So, is there a reason why you're calling me? Not that I mind at all."
"U-Umm…well, I just wanted to hear you voice is all."
A blush creeps up in Tsuna's face and he lets out a small nervous chuckle.
"I-It's nice to hear your voice too {Name}-Chan. Now, why are you really calling me?"
"Damn Hyper Intuition…I…uh…actually wanted to ask you something."
"Go ahead."
He hears a sharp intake of breath and,
"Whatmakescreepynoisesatelevenpm…?"
Tsuna blinks and tries to process what you just said.
"Um…could you talk slower {Name}-Chan?"
"F-Fine…w-what makes creepy noises at eleven pm…?"
Tsuna freezes up and looks out of the window to find answers but he was just as scared as you were.
"W-What kind of noises?"
"Like evil creepy! It's like a cat scratching wood floors and it's scaring the hell out of me!"
Tsuna raises an eyebrow.
"You mean like a 'thump' and a 'scratch' sound?"
"Exactly!"
"{Name}-Chan I think that's just a tree banging next to your window."
"…"
"Y-Yeah, I used to have those kinds of noises until my mom cut down the branch next to my window."
Tsuna raises an eyebrow when he hears scuffling and a sound that sounded like someone was blocking the hearing part of phone.
"{Name}-Chan?"
"…I'm an idiot Tsu-kun."
Tsuna smiles.
"No you're not {Name}-Chan. It's okay to be scared sometimes. Do you have a blackout?"
"Y-Yeah, do you?"
"No, it might just be in your neighborhood. Do you want me to come over?"
He could hear you let out a happy sigh.
"It's alright Tsu-kun. I don't want you to walk over here and watch me do nothing and walk back to your house again. I appreciate the gesture though but just hearing your voice…makes me feel safe."
Tsuna blushes and scratches his cheek nervously.
"O-Okay, then I'll see you on Monday?"
"Yep, see you Monday."
"{Name}-Chan…?"
"Yeah?"
Tsuna closes his eyes and takes in a deep breath.
"I love you."
"…I love you too Tsu-kun. Good night."
"Yeah, Good night."
Tsuna presses the end button and places his phone on top of the table as he goes to sleep.
With a content smile on his face.
Extended Ending
"Stupid, stupid. Why did I have to deny Tsu-kun's offer. Trying to act all cool and stuff. How stupid can I get?"
You muttered to yourself as you inch closer to the back of your closet with a flashlight in one hand and a bible in the other.
Praying, that those goddamn noises would just stop.
