Like a Boss

Prompt: Writers Choice – Break Down

Characters: Kurokawa Hana, Sawada Tsunayoshi


"Hana, are you in here?"called Tsuna as he peeked into Hana and Ryohei's room. Spotting the familiar form on the bed, he pushed the door open slowly, "Kyoko sent me to check on you when you missed dinner." He let his hand crawl along the wall until he reached the light switch, "Why are you sitting in the dark?"

"Tell Kyoko, I'll meet her tomorrow," Hana's voice was cracking as she spoke. Tsuna knew that tone too well and he darted forward. Crouching down in front of her, his knees digging into the carpet, he reached for her face.

He was careful as he tilted his head up. He was expecting it, but seeing her with her makeup running down her cheeks and tears gathering in her eyes made his chest ache. "Ryohei's okay, I promise. Kyoya and Chrome are on his mission with him and even then it's only a C level. They just wanted to get away and have some friend time."

"I know, I know," she sniffled. He let his hands drop to her thighs, next to her hands, and rubbed his thumb reassuringly against the back of her hand. "I just – I don't even know where it came from."

"It's okay. Just take a deep breath and tell me."

She was silent for a while, her breathe heaving as more tears fell, before she managed to get out, "I was getting ready to meet with Kyoko and he texted a picture of them standing in front of the Leaning Tower. I was trying to answer and I just – it just hit me that one day it won't be a text from him. It'll be a call from you, crying because he's hurt because he's there for the fucking mafia."

She broke down again, unable to hold it back.

Guilt pulsed through Tsuna as he leaned over and wrapped his arms around her. She fell forwards, burying her face in his shoulder.

"I promise I won't let that happen, Hana," Tsuna murmured. He tightened his grip on her, "I promise."


E/n: For Orithyea who wanted Hana and Tsuna. I hope you like it.

So you guys aren't gonna get daily updates anymore. Now you're going to alternate with Triple Layered Sky so some weeks you'll get two and some weeks you'll get three. I haven't decided whether you'll get weekends too or if I'm going to start a Shingeki no Kyojin story for the weekends that I've been thinking of for a while.

I hope everyone has a nice dya and see you wednesday!
