Ready? Go!
Titulo: The Orange Sky and the yellow sun
Chapter 3: May the Red Storm make It's way to the Blue sky
--
The Sun Arcobaleno remembers the first time he met Sky Arcobaleno. The boy was only 19 years old, and wore the white clothes with the mushroom hat, claiming it was given to him by Luce.Of course, everyone was suspicious, after all, Luce never mentioned a second individual living in her house. But they decided it was her life and they didn't need to know everything. The boy tried to convince the group to accompany him to his destination, but they ignored him. After all, he didn't have money or anything interesting involved. So, instead of him insisting, he accepted and walked away, leaving their group alone. However, Lal Mirch had been worried about the boy's safety, and followed, and they all went together.
They soon saw him being attacked by a bear, and they had their weapons ready, but they notice that the boy shows no fear when facing the creature. Soon, the bear calms down, and the group manages to see a cub hiding and huddled in a corner. The boy takes groceries from his bag, then takes a piece of the dress and rips it like paper, and tends to the bear cub's wound. Soon, the smaller bear seems to improve, so it jumps onto the boy's lap and licks his face. The bigger bear and the cub then leave, and he waves them goodbye. He then notices the presence of the group, who were watching him. Lal smiles and says
"Alright, we'll go with you. Now, where is this place called again?"
--
It's been a week since Reborn came. And within a week, he would bring in more and more crazy and dangerous training, and his brother would help. but not him "What Happened in World War II in Japan?" Leyama he sounds, looking nervously at his brother, who was smilingly holding a button attached to a flamethrower pointing at him. He swallows and responds "Uh... A...fight...by Japan...against...Russia?" Both the mobster baby and the caramel haired boy look at each other, and then his older brother turns to him and smiles "You're… wrong! Boooh!" Tsuna presses the button without hesitation, and the flamethrower activates. Leyama threw himself to the side, nearly burning himself, as she shivered on the ground. Tsuna and Reborn laugh at this, and he doesn't like the fact that they're both getting along from the sadism they manage to do by hurting him. Pouting annoyed, he looks at his brother, who starts laughing at him more, and he feels betrayed. Tsuna soon calms down and looks at his little brother "My Otōto hasn't been studying... Oh, don't look like that, Le-San. You know I would never put him in a death situation." Leyama looks at him shocked "But... You just said that you would never put me in a death situation..." Tsuna shrugged, still smiling "I said, but I can't promise from Reborn anymore. He takes his training seriously, so once he's decided on something, get ready Le-San" Leyama looks scared Reborn, who had that malicious smile full of cruelty directed at him. He gets up and walks away to his now half-burnt table "P-PLEASE! MERCY, REBORN!" Reborn continues to smile, and soon, Leon turns into a gun and points it at the brown haired boy "Under no circumstances have I ever shown mercy to my enemies. And even though I'm training you, I won't hesitate to shoot, Baka-Yama"Leyama looks at Tsuna, looking for him to contradict what Reborn said. But Tsuna shakes his head, shrugging his shoulders with a smile of pity and affection for his younger brother "There's no way to go against what he said, Le-San. What he said is true. I've been with him long enough to know that." And Leyama turns, and sees those Onyx eyes preparing a thousand ways to torture the boy, and that just makes Leyama scream 'NOOOOOOOO' that fateful night.
After dinner, Leyama was the first to go to sleep, then his mother. Meanwhile, Tsuna was preparing Reborn's espresso, and when he was done, he sat down in front of him and served him the coffee. Reborn gladly takes it and drinks it, while Tsuna takes some snacks and gives it to Leon "That way you will pamper Leon" Tsuna laughs softly at the Arcobaleno's comment "Look who says, since you're also letting yourself be pampered when I have to feed you, when we both know you don't even like being treated like a baby to begin with" Reborn drinks his coffee, happy that it's still hot and the way he likes it "Very well observed, Dame-Tsuna... But maybe I like it when you pamper me like this" Tsuna almost chokes, surprised by the mobster's answer. He blushes a little, but coughs to clear his throat,looking aside "As expected of you, Reborn. Always playing with me and catching me off guard. Honestly, I should prepare myself more for anything you say to me." Reborn continues to smile at Tsuna, and his smile widens as he gets a reaction from the boy after a while "Oh? So you don't deny that this is something you enjoy? Pampering me makes you happy?"Tsuna smiles widely at Reborn, but clearly pointing knives at the little shit "Keep saying that and I'll make sure you don't eat and sleep in this house all week, Reborn" But of course, Reborn doesn't even worries about that, in fact, even amused that the boy is challenging him after years. He continues to drink his coffee, and feels the espresso taste sweeter , he hums. Tsuna just sighs and finishes giving Leon snacks. He gets up and puts the rest away and turns to Reborn, now taking his empty coffee cup and washing it. Placing it in the sink, he now looks at the mobster "I'll go to sleep now, and I guess you will, right?" But Reborn doesn't respond to him. Tsuna gets confused "Uh, Reborn?"It takes a few more seconds, and then a bubble appears, showing that Reborn was sleeping "Oh, but you must be kidding me... Did he end up in bedtime mode?" Tsuna sighs, and looks at Leon, who was a little sleepy "...okay. let's go to sleep" Tsuna takes Leon with affection and puts him on his shoulder, while he takes Reborn carefully so as not to wake him up, since even a falling leaf seemed to wake up the mobster. Looking back, Tsuna barely remembers the last time Reborn had been so relaxed in his sleep. Maybe the mobster knew he was in a safe area, and that he wouldn't be attacked in his sleep. The honey-eyed boy is almost proud to know that the mobster trusts him. Almost. He then walks carefully to his brother's room and tries to open the door. It's locked. He knows it's to keep the mobster out of his room, but both he and Leyama know that won't stop him from either breaking down the door or breaking into the room through another entrance. Sighing, he has only one option where he can leave the mobster: his own room. He doesn't like people going in there, but at this point, but Reborn will attack him when he sees he slept on the couch.
He then enters the room and, before turning on the lights, he pulls Reborn's fedora over his eyes, not wanting to disturb him. He then turns on the light and looks around his room. The walls were all hand painted with every design on the walls. On the ceiling and walls, he had painted the sky orange. On the ceiling he had also painted the clouds and the sun,but at a distance from each other. On the left wall he had painted rain, lightning and storms happening all at once, while the right wall a mist that covered a city with people made of shadows. And on the wall in front of him, which had his window, he had painted animals like a frog, an alligator, a squid, a hawk, a monkey, and a chameleon that was Leon. Leon sticks out his happy tongue, and Tsuna lets out a low chuckle. The room was simple, having, as in Leyama's room, a desk in front of the window, a bed with a blanket with stars, a closet and closet, and he had a bench with books. He takes it and goes to her bed. He carefully places Reborn and covers him, and puts Leon along. Leon goes to sleep, and Tsuna takes off Reborn's fedora carefully and puts it to the side, smiling at the sight of Reborn's spiky hair. Tsuna takes a Futon and puts it on the floor, takes a pillow, turns off the light and goes and lies on the Futon, looking at the ceiling. And finally, he goes to sleep.
--
Tsuna wakes up with his brother screaming in the other room, and also with explosions. Tsuna sits up and still feels half groggy with sleep, half confused by sleepy. Soon his brain starts putting two plus two together, and he gains full consciousness. He soon sees Reborn enter, but with the gun pointed at him, and then shoots. Tsuna manages to jump to the side and dodge in time, but his Hyper Intuition warns him, so he jumps again to a specific location in the room. Now, he looks at the ground and sees several strands of traps. He wonders when Reborn set him up, but on second thought, and knowing the childish mobster, he always did it to torture one of the unskilled unfortunates (like him before he got cursed, Skull or even Colonello, but he ended up falling, even when he thought he had dodged them. No wonder they don't get along) and then looks at Reborn, who had a satisfied smile on his face, and Leon transforms back to his original form "It looks like you know how to use it better your Hyper intuition, Dame-Tsuna. Maybe you can use and teach Baka-Yama" Tsuna stares at him for a while, then smiles laughing "Well, I could, but then where would be the fun with him dodging everything?" Both smile, but soon, Tsuna has a more serious face "But seriously... I don't think he can still use hyper intuition as he wants for now" Reborn then stops smiling, taking Tsuna's comment seriously "You do you mean he's not yet able to learn? Or do you mean he can't use it?" Tsuna agrees "Yes and yes... His strength is still small, and even if I teach him, he couldn't use it to his advantage even if he knew. And I can't force him to 'improve' Hyper Intuition, or if not, he can get it wrong and use it wrong. He'll have to learn to at least have his intuition active" Reborn is quiet, but soon smiles and agrees "Maybe you're right in that area, Dame-Tsuna. After all, you learned to use it naturally, and not forcing it to activate... Well, come on, you're still making breakfast this month, Dame-Cielo" and Reborn leaves. Tsuna gets a little annoyed, and caves in the room "Don't call me that!" And sighs. He really, REALLY doesn't like that damn name. Sighing, he gets dressed and goes downstairs to make them breakfast.
--
He manages to finish breakfast in time before his younger brother comes downstairs, and he is served with his breakfast. Looking at Leyama, who was sour about this morning, he chuckles as he sees his hair is half burnt, and Nana notices that too "Oh dear! Have you been playing with fire?" Leyama changes his features to a softer and more worried one, trying to give her a reassuring smile "Nothing like that, Mom. I just had an accident this morning" Reborn laughs, knowing how this accident happened, and it only makes Leyama give Knife glares at him. he. Reborn soon looks at him, and Leyama backs away, looking away. Tsuna has fun and lets it go. He didn't want to get involved in this mess. He then serves everyone at the table, and Nana smiles at him "Tsu-Kun is being so helpful these days!~ And he looks so happy too! Wait, don't tell me..." Tsuna looks curious and confused, Leyama looks curious but eating breakfast and trying to avoid being robbed, while Reborn eats and already has a way of stealing Leyama's food "My Tsu-Kun is in love!~" Tsuna looks shocked, Leyama gasps and Reborn pays attention to the conversation. Tsuna is then quick to deny "WHAT!? N-NO NO NO! IT'S NOT THAT, MAMA!" Tsuna is getting redder as he denies "I'M NOT IN LOVE! WHERE DID YOU GET THAT FROM????" Nana laughs, amused and happy "Tsu-Kun, you don't need to be ashamed of this~ I know it scares you since I caught you in such an unexpected way, but I know the symptoms when I see them. You've been working hard, as well You've been humming every time you come home from school, and you always smile so suddenly I can even see sparkles and flowers appearing around you. It's love, my dear!" Tsuna was finished, trying to consume all the information that was thrown at him at once, like a bullet train. Leyama looks at her brother, who sees how confused and lost he is, and even feels sorry for him, and he looks at Reborn, who looked… irritated, but forcing a smile. And then,everyone in the room hears a loud crack. Upon seeing it, Leyama is startled to see that the poor chopsticks he was holding had broken. in the middle. Those chopsticks were fortified plastic. Noticing that he caught attention, he relaxes his smile, but it's not his usual smile (you can be sure that Leyama slowly learns to read Reborn's smiles, and would know which smile is the one he always wears and which one isn't) and says "Isn't that interesting? Dame-Tsuna may have delevoped a forbidden love" this scares Tsuna even more, making him shiver in his seat. Leyama is worried for Tsuna, as even if he doesn't remember why he could never have a romantic relationship with someone, he's sure he never could. And he's sure that Tsuna was destroying himself inside, trying to figure out who he would have this attraction to, and clearly HOPE he wasn't a student "I think... I think I'll... Make our Bento..." The poor shocked boy walks to the kitchen, starting to make the Bento box. He turns to Leyama, looking at him "L-Le-San... You can... you can go ahead... I'll be right later... how are you?" Leyama agrees, feeling a little sad for his brother, who smiles and goes back to making their lunch. Leyama turns to his mother, who Nana sighs, sad for her son. As much as Tsuna had been adopted, Nana loved him as if he were her blood, and seeing him sad and finished like that only reminds her of herself. She doesn't like that feeling, and she knows it well. She looks at Leyama and gives him a weak smile, and whispers "Le-Kun... Finish your breakfast and go straight to school. Reborn, accompany him too... I think I need to talk to Tsunayoshi alone" Leyama still silently agrees, and finishes breakfast and gets ready. He takes one last look back to see Tsuna, who was shaking, and sighs. He feels being kicked behind his head "ITE-TE-TE! What was that for??" But when looking at the cause of this (which was clearly Reborn) he can see the face not happy with the previous mention. Knowing better, and afraid for his life, he puts on his shoes and yells 'I'm on my way, see you!', and hearing them say 'goodbye!' he smiles, and feels Reborn climbing onto his shoulder. He opens the door and sees Takeshi already waiting for him "Yo, Yama-Kun!"
--
People tend to think that Takeshi is very oblivious to the people and reactions around him, but in fact, it was the opposite. At a glance, he could know when someone lies or how they feel. But even he could tell that the tension in the air was palpable, and he could only see a boy (Reborn) very angry and not pleased, even if he forced a smile on his face, and of course, Leyama, who didn't hide concern on his face. Deciding to break the ice, Takeshi finally asks "So... Yama-Kun" Leyama pays his attention to Takeshi "A-Ah, yeah? What's up, Takeshi?" Takeshi continues, sensing that he is doing something right but wrong at the same time "What happened? He looks nervous and tense, and your brother didn't come today" Leyama swallows nervously. He didn't know if he should say it, even more so with Reborn's presence, but he just couldn't hide it "Well... Is that... Aneki seems to be... in love?" Takeshi takes a while to reply, but then he smiles, amused "Oh, so that was it? I thought it was something serious!" Leyama denies it, and Takeshi looks at him, confused "Well, that's serious. Aniki has a...forbidden crush" that does surprise the baseball fan boy "Eh?? Does he have a forbidden crush? Like, a crush on a teacher ?" Leyama agrees, but thinks to himself "(Actually, if he has a crush on someone older than him, it wouldn't be that worrying, I guess)" and leyama just sighs "But lucky for us, I guess, Tsuna-San doesn't know who he has this crush on. And we both hope it's just a lack of communication" Takeshi agrees, and then looks at Reborn, who looked like he wanted to kick someone. And if he was lucky, neither he nor Leyama would be his victims.
They soon arrive at the school, and go inside. Luckily, they didn't see Hibari that morning, so he must be busy with something else. The student council could be dangerous, especially Hibari. They soon enter and sit at their tables, and Reborn was already gone when they noticed he was missing. Leyama worries that Reborn is still a little sour about the information (still unconfirmed if correct) they received this morning. He wonders why he was so angry... They soon see Professor Nezu enter, and clear his throat "Today, we have a new student who moved here from Italy. You can come in" and with that, the attention so much of Takeshi as of Leyama was pulled towards the boy who entered. He had a red shirt, a white top, black pants, he wore black sneakers, he wore a necklace that looked like it had a plaque on it, he had green eyes with a sharp look, and his hair was silver. All the girls sighed at the sight of him. And Leyama could see that Takeshi had his full attention on the new kid "(Is he analyzing him or is there something else I don't know about?)" and he honestly wasn't going to ask. The boy soon starts saying "My name is Gokudera Hayato, and I'm from Italy and I came to test Judaiime. That's all you need to know" and soon, the girls freak out, filling the newbie with questions, who tried to answer as little as possible, and clearly looked irritated by it. He notices that Gokudera was searching with his eyes, scanning the room, and soon he meets Leyama's gaze, which makes him shiver and hesitate. He now notices that everything about the boy screamed 'RED FLAG!', but for some reason, he didn't feel that threatened, even though he felt danger. Before Professor Nezu could say anything, someone opens the door saying 'Excuse me, Sensei', and the whole room is quiet to see Tsuna enter smiling. They haven't forgotten what happened a week ago, but it wasn't because they were afraid of him. In fact, Leyama eventually learned that Tsuna slowly becomes popular around the school because of his outstanding charisma and unending kindness, but also for always defending him and never letting a student or even a teacher talk about him. People slowly started to respect Leyama, but not much has changed. Gokudera looks at Tsuna, then Leyama, and seems to be confused, frustrated and angrier than before. Professor Nezu decides to get Tsuna's attention so "Being late, aren't you, Tsunayoshi? It shouldn't be surprising, considering you're Leyama's brother, being the Baka-Yama that he is" and the whole room sighs, and Tsuna changes from a smile to a sharp, annoyed look, causing the professor to instantly hesitate, and causing Gokudera to change from an annoyed face to a surprised one. Tsuna passes by Gokudera, saying 'excuse me', and stands in front of Nezu, still keeping a few steps away between them "Listen. I even swallow you talking bad about me, but nobody, and I repeat, NOBODY talks bad about me. brother like that. Your ignorance is what makes me the most irritated, but I only tolerate it for my brother. So, I hope we don't repeat this situation again in the future, 'Sensei'" Silence dominates the room, and Tsuna walks towards his wallet, which is behind Leyama. The teacher takes a few moments to get out of his shock, and tells Gokudera to go sit down, as class will soon begin. The silver haired boy agrees and walks past Leyama. He gives him a menacing look but does nothing but talk to him, only for him to hear "You, me, behind school after class. Don't miss it" and walks off to an empty seat. Leyama doesn't understand shit, but he fears what the other meant "(He wants to... fight me?!)" And that makes Tsuna confused and curious...
--
It was lunchtime, and Leyama was shaking like a leaf. The day was almost over, and he didn't want to fight the rookie. He literally screamed danger, even though his intuition told him he wasn't bad at all. "Fuckin' stupid intuition..." He says this on his sigh. Takehsi and Tsuna look at him, curious "Something wrong, Yama-Kun?" Tsuna is already quick to respond "If he threatened you, I can take care of him for you. After all, no one messes with my cute Otōto~" as much as there was a playful tone in the middle of Tsuna's sentence, Leyama knew he was fine able to destroy the world for him, and he didn't want that. Before he could respond, they hear something, and look back to see a vase moving. Leyama soon responds "Reborn... you are the..." And soon, the bush that was in the vase turns around, showing Reborn being the bush, smiling, and this scares Leyama, while Takeshi is surprised, and Tsuna laughs "Ciaossu ! Exactly, Baka-Yama! I'm the bush. Who knew you had a good eyesight" Tsuna continues laughing "Ara Ara, it looks like you've been improving your disguises every day" and Leyama sees Reborn smile more with that comment "Of course , Dame-Tsuna. I am the master of disguises. What more could you expect from me?" Tsuna smiles, as he pulls out and shows his Bento box "An empty belly waiting for healthy and satisfying food?" And Reborn already keeps his disguise (strange) and approaches and sits on Tsuna's lap "Don't mind if I do!" Tsuna takes another bento Box and gives it to his brother "Here yours too, Le-San!" Leyama takes it, smiling happily "Thanks, Aniki!" Reborn soon looks at Leyama, still smiling "And about your problem with Gokudera, Baka-Yama, that's a problem that only you can solve. It's a fair man to man conversation" Leyama looks annoyed "I imagine that was yours do, isn't it, Reborn? And 'man-to-man talk' is just you bullshitting me , isn't it? This is clearly a fight you arranged for me!" Reborn pulls out Leon, who had already turned into a pistol, and points at Leyama's face, who instantly recoils "I'm not the lying type, Baka-Yama. This is something you'll have to resolve on your own" and Leyama just silently agrees, going to eat his food. Tsuna is worried, but trusts Reborn. They soon start eating and talking to each other, and this almost makes Leyama forget about their fight. Almost.
--
Leyama prepares his things. Finally, classes were over, but he still had a problem on his hands, and that was the rookie. Gokudera clearly wanted to fight him, but knew that wherever he went, Tsuna would still follow him, so he asked Takeshi to wind him up. Seeing that his friend was now rolling his older brother with silly stories, which his brother loved, he slipped away and walked to the back of the school. He looks around until he sees Gokudera smoking. Yup, Totally a delinquent look. He sees that Gokudera has noticed him, but continues to smoke. Sighing, the brown haired boy decides to break the ice "Uh, you called me here, right? What would that be?" The silver-haired boy continues to smoke, so Leyama just waits patiently. After he's done, he flicks his cigarette to a corner and points at Leyama "I just feel insulted. Your brother clearly looks more like the 10th, but you're the one they chose instead. And I'll fix that !" And then, Leyama's eyes widened as he saw that Gokudera was holding nothing less than banana dynamite in hand "DYNAMITE!" The dynamites are activated and thrown towards Leyama, who screams and runs from the explosions "HE WILL KILL ME! HE WILL TOTALLY KILL ME!" he runs away, while hearing several explosions behind him. When he manages to hide in a corner, he hears a voice call him, and he looks around "Did someone just call my name?" And then, he sees the water fountain change places and show Reborn, who was drinking his classic espresso, looking at him smiling "Ciaossu!" Leyama looks at Reborn surprised and annoyed "Reborn, what are you doing here?! And why the hell are you at the water fountain?!" Reborn ignores his questions "Baka-Yama, looks like you've met Gokudera Hayato, also known as Smokin Bomb" Leyama looks at him confused "Smokin...Bomb?" Reborn smiles even more "Yes, Smokein Bomb. Gokudera is a mobster known for using bombs to eliminate his enemies" Leyama has no reaction to this, but inside he was screaming 'SO YOU'RE INVOLVED IN THIS, ARE YOU?!' which Reborn continues to smile "Of course Baka-Yama. And now you have to fight him" Leyama yells "Did you just read my mind?! Oh, forget it! I don't want to fight him! He's got bombs, for the love of God, Reborn!" The childish mobster just takes a sip of his espresso and looks at him "Then die" Leyama still wonders how he became friends with his brother, but before he could continue the discussion, Leyama notices a dynamite rolling around, and this makes him jump to his feet. forward, and the bomb explodes. Feeling pain through his body, Leyama stands up shaking, and sees Gokudera arriving with more dynamite "You really are insistent... But I want to see you survive this! DOUBLE BOMB!" And then, he was double the dynamite. Leyama screams and continues to run and dodge, as Reborn takes notes of this, clearly enjoying himself.
Leyama ran around the school while everything was blown up, only hearing 'DOUBLE BOMB' everywhere he went. The bombs were almost reaching the poor boy, and he knew that by this point, his brother and Takeshi must have heard explosions around the school, and he hoped, VERY MUCH that Hibari wouldn't show up, or if he didn't, he'd have problems with two instead. on one. Soon, Leyama finds himself cornered, and sees Gokudera panting behind him "That's it, I'm done! There's nowhere to run now, you I-want-to-be-the-next-vongola-boss!" Leyama yells back, nervous and shaking "FOR GOD SAKE, I DON'T WANT TO BE THE CHIEF OF THE MAFIA!" But Gokudera just ignores "Tell me another one when you find yourself dead! TRIPLE BOMB!" And the bombs are thrown, but wrongly, falling close to him. Gokudera and Leyama are shocked, but before they can react, the bombs explode in Gokudera's face. But at the time, he feels himself being thrown to the ground, as the bombs explode. Soon, he opens his eyes and sees Leyama protecting him with his body, but he also sees a cape floating around, covering him and Leyama.
Leyama looks at him worriedly "Are you ok?" Coming out of his initial shock, he nods and sits down, and looks over to see Leyama smiling relieved "Good...I was so worried..." And Leyama looks back and is shocked "A-ANIKI?! WHERE ARE YOU FROM?! HE CAME?!" When the dust settles, he sees Tsuna, who turns around to look at him seriously, and then his features soften when he sees his 'twin' brother "I heard explosions here, and when I arrived, the next thing I saw was you throwing yourself to protect your enemy. You're crazy and you have a heart of gold, Le-San, but I'm proud to know you're my Otōto" Leyama sighs and smiles. They soon turn around and look at Gokudera, who was looking at them in a strange way. Soon, he gets emotional, and suddenly, both hands of Tsuna and Leyama are taken by Gokudera "I never knew there were such kind souls that will become the Judaiime! From now on, regardless of who the heir of Vongola is. ,I promise to be loyal to both of you, being your right hand!" The brown-haired boy is shocked, while the honey-eyed one just takes his hand away and smiles a little uncomfortable "It seems that there's been a miscommunication here, Gokudera-Kun. I'm not the heir and I won't become the heir of Vongola. it was decided, and that will be Le-San. You can only become loyal to him, but we can only be friends if you want" however, the silver haired young man denies "No, I'm loyal to both of you! You two protected me, even when I was rude! I refuse to give up that title!" Tsuna sighs, saying 'oh boy', while Leyama also tries to protest "But I don't want that! I don't even understand why, besides that I don't want to become Vongola's heir!" And then they see Takeshi arriving with Reborn on his shoulder "Leyama, Tsuna, are you ok? I heard explosions with Tsuna, but he ran away and I couldn't keep up" Leyama sighs, relieved "Yes, I'm fine, Takeshi , and thank god, Tsuna and Gokudera too" Takeshi looks at Gokudera, who stares at him, and then, the black haired boy smiles at the silver one "Ah, so it was you? Were you lighting fireworks here?" Takeshi says in a cheerful tone (and seems to be oblivious too), while Gokudera argues that 'it's not fireworks, it's bombs!', but the other doesn't seem to take it seriously. Reborn climbs down and climbs onto Tsuna's shoulder, looking at Leyama with his shit smile "Well, answering your question, Baka-Yama, in the mafia world, if you beat an opponent in a battle, he becomes your ally. That's how works, so congratulations, you won and gained another ally to the famiglia!" Leyama yells in frustration "BUT I DON'T WANT TO BE IN THE MAFIA OR HAVE MORE ALLIES DAMMIT!"
--
The day ends with Takeshi and Gokudera accompanying Leyama (against the young man's wishes) and with Gokudera arguing with Takeshi, while Takeshi doesn't take it seriously and tries to calm the hot-headed newbie. Tsuna and Reborn followed from a safe distance, as the caramel haired one doesn't like arguments, as nostalgic as this scene is, as it reminds him of when he was with the group of arcobalenos before they were cursed. He then shifted his attention to Reborn, who seemed quiet and thoughtful, which was rare coming from the mobster. He decides to break this silence "Eto... Reborn?" Reborn shifts his attention to him, and Tsuna continues "Something wrong? You look... Thoughtful. Is there something you want to talk about?" Reborn is quiet again, and Tsuna already expects him not to answer, but he sees that it would be the opposite "Is it true that you're in love?" Tsuna looks at him confused, but then laughs softly at him. Reborn looks at him intrigued, since he was sure he had asked him seriously. Tsuna soon stopped laughing and continued walking "Eh? Reborn, I hope I'm not being jealous..." He laughs with Reborn's serious face, and continues "No, Reborn. I'm not in love, I believe. At least, not someone in my class or teacher. I think I'm just getting comfortable, to be honest" this earns a curious look from Reborn "Comfortable? With what?" Tsuna smiles softly "Isn't it obvious? It's with your presence, Reborn" he is sure that Reborn is surprised, but decides not to risk looking "Before I felt so tense and worried, but now... I feel truly in And I think you've added a little more fun to my and Leyama's life... Thank you" he looks at Reborn, who took his fedora and covered his eyes, but kept a softer smile. He is surprised, as Reborn doesn't smile like that normally. He then jumps from his shoulder to the side wall, and that makes Tsuna stop and look confused "You know, this makes me happy now... Both knowing that you don't have a crush on anyone, and that I added something more in your life" Reborn looks at him, looking into Tsuna's eyes "Then listen to me well, Dame-Tsuna" and then, Tsuna starts to feel something that his mother had spoken to him in the house...
His mother and he hear Leyama and Reborn leave the house, and then his mother walks over to his side and starts helping him pack up the Bentos. Silence settles in, and it even becomes comforting. Soon, Nana starts talking "Tsu-kun... I'm sure you're in love, and I can help you find out who it is without you telling me" Tsuna tenses, and looks at his mother, confused "But Mama.. How would I know? I didn't even notice it was like this before" his mother hums, and continues "Well... usually that person makes you comfortable wherever you are" Tsuna looks at her attentively "Sometimes, you feel like you're safe around that person, and she makes your heart beat very hard when you're close or thinks about them" she helps him finish Bento, and then covers it with the cloth, and gives it to Tsuna "But mostly, you know that person will never leave your side, and I know you fell in love with a person like that, Tsuna. After all, you are exactly like that, no matter what you said and think you did in the past" she hugs him, which he reciprocates "So, my little Tsu- kun... Don't let go of those feelings. Embrace them and learn from them. Even if that person doesn't feel the same way, keep the happy memories and hold on to them in your heart... Are you okay?" tears streamed down his face.He never knew Nana could say such sweet words but he smiles happily "Yes Mama...and thank you"
And then he feels the wind pass softly between him and Reborn, and Reborn's next words are what makes him understand everything "No matter how much you try to walk away and think you abandoned us, I will never let you escape my life again"
And the wind passes smoothly, and something inside Tsuna breaks. Tsuna felt his heart pounding, and he could feel his face heat up. He starts to shake, and his first reaction is to run without looking at Reborn. He shot past Leyama, Takeshi and Gokudera, who looked confused at him and then Reborn, who wasn't much different from them. Tsuna ran and ran and ran, his face heating up every second "(It can't be!)" He thinks "(It can't be, it can't be, it can't be!)" But there was no denying it, and he hated it . He hated himself.
He had fallen in love with the mobster without being aware of his feelings for him.
