Title: "Brotherhood"

Rated: K+

Summary: In which Giotto and Tsuna were brothers—and the former had a huge brother-complex toward the latter while the latter was completely not aware of it.

Warn: AU, big brother!Giotto, little!Tsuna, ooc, dialog-heavy, absurd, weird, not beta'd.

Disc: I don't own KHR.


A/N: I think I'm pushing things… (Also credits to Chocolate and caramel for Xanxus' other name, since I'm too lazy to make one for him.) Sorry for the lateness (was busy drawing and coloring for my extracurricular pamphlet designs), though I'm still wondering why the favorites and follows are still growing… But thanks for the reviews, favorites, and follows everyone. :D


Glaring at the piece of paper in front of him, Ieyasu "Giotto" Sawada clenched it while gritting his teeth.

"He's coming?" His mother absentmindedly nodded, still cooking in the kitchen, as his little brother peeked at the letter from beside his chair.

"Yup, and he's going to stay with us for the month before heading out to school again, Ie-kun," Nana smiled, "I can't wait to see him again!"

Giotto wailed, "but kaa-san, you know he hates my guts!"

"Ieyasu, you do not talk badly about your cousin like that."

"But kaaaaaa-saaaaaaaan—!" He wailed again while Tsuna blinked innocently, not knowing what was going on and wondering why his big brother was so upset with a piece of paper.

Is someone bad coming home? he peered in closer to view the letter more clearly, but alas couldn't understand a word of it and gave up trying to understand it. (And years later, he'd learn that it was in Italian, the mother language of his one-sixteenth Italian father back when the man hadn't met their mother.)

"Who is coming, oniichan?" Done wailing (for now), Giotto flashed the younger boy a bitter smile before saying, "just a freeloader until next month, Tsuna. You don't need to know about it."

"Ieyasu, that's not very nice—and don't say your cousin is a freeloader." Nana frowned, not pleased with her son's statement. "And if you're still acting like that, I'm going to put Yatsu-kun's room with yours so you two can have a cousin-bonding time with each other—and also with Tsu-kun."

Thinking about sharing a room with his violent-trigger-happy cousin, Ieyatsu "Xanxus" Sawada, Giotto shuddered then protested about Tsuna's safety (or more importantly Tsuna's innocence) from said violent-trigger-happy cousin.

"F–fine! I'll stop saying he's freeloader—if you stop using Tsuna as a threat kaa-san!"

"Okay, Ie-kun~" his mother smiled again, "come on Tsu-kun, want to go play at Kyo-chan's place?"

Giotto blanched, kaa-san you double-crossing liar! while Tsuna nodded with a smile.

"Un!"

"NO TSUNAAAA!"


END


A/N: Weird absurd ending (and very short chapter), again. oTL (Fun fact: At first, it's supposed to be Kyoko but I changed my mind and thought, "eh, just for the heck of it."—but I'm still not confirming who "Kyo-chan" is. That's for me to know and you to guess~) …well, reviews would be nice thank you.

NagiRokudo: Eh sure, if you think so—different people have different preferences—but thanks for the review. :)

27: Since you say (write) it nicely—sure! I hope I made more fluff in this… And maybe, I don't really have much idea about this, but I'll try. Also thanks for the review. :)

Jasamkhp: Finally! Someone that perhaps think it's Kyoko! (Not that I'm confirming it's her or anything, I'm just getting tired to see Hibari's name…) …eh, come again? If it's about the "he's just joking" part, it's about Tsuna—not "Kyo-chan". And thanks for the review. :)

booklover1209: Giotto thanks you for your empathy—my sisters are kinda pain in the neck too (I guess), but whatever—anyway, thanks for the review by the way. :)

JuCaos: Oh man, I just remembered Kikyo has "Kyo" in it—I literally LOL-ed at 3 a.m. here (Jakarta)— perhaps "Kyo-chan" could be Kikyo—and thanks for the review! :D

PhantomThiefL: Aww, thanks for the compliments—though, perhaps it's because this thing has your favorite pairing-in-siblings character(s) (or something like that)—and also thanks for the review. :)

kuromi123: Aha! I've finally made you review—since I mostly see you following and/or favoriting my stories (somehow)—and well, I did say it's just a hypothesis; but thanks for saying it and for the review. :)

Silenzioso: Well, I never did say there's 1827—it's just your (and other 1827-fans') assumption—and sure! Also thanks for both the idea (Tsuna's still four-ish, I guess I can make it with four-year-old's curiosity as the prompt) and compliment! Though, perhaps Giotto acts like that because my view of brotherly protectiveness towards very young and little (and pure) four year-old boys (I don't have a little brother, so I don't know how other people, who do, act)—that or it's just because my liking towards Tsuna (since he's one of my favorite characters), lol—and also thanks for the review! :D

Natsu Yuuki: Ah, daripada kesusahan nulis pakai Inggris (kayaknya, menurut aku sih) mendingan pakai Indonesia saja. :) Sama enggak apa-apa kok—malah seharusnya aku yang minta maaf enggak bisa bikin drabble—namanya juga berupa kumpulan (atau sebuah seri berisi) one-shot (yang aku harap bisa mirip drabble gitu). :) Serta terima kasih atas pujian dan review-nya ya! :D
