Hello everyone! I'm back! Well, not permanently so to speak. But anyways, happy 8027 day! I'm very excited for this day since I can update my stories. So, the daily updates won't be happening any time soon. But I hope this can cheer you up. And I am to forever curse that thief. Enjoy~!
Previously on My Little Family:
"Isn't that the same thing as telling me that I'm jealous."
"Well, here's a good question. If you're not jealous, then why are you so angry?" Dino asked.
That moment, Tsuna couldn't answer it. The words wouldn't come out, much less form in his head. He couldn't come up with a good answer for that either. Dino was just standing there, looking down at him. His eyes were staring as he was waiting for an answer. It grew silent. Well until Matthew cooed weakly. He was feeling rather hungry. Tsuna regained his composure and drew the baby closer. And that was the end of that conversation.
Chapter 11: I'm Not Jealous!
Tsuna was laying on his shared bed with Yamamoto. Of course, he was asleep. The brunet pulled the blanket closer to his shoulders. He couldn't stop thinking about what Dino told him during the day. It was bothering him. He, in no means, is jealous. What should he be jealous for? Nothing, absolutely nothing! Then why is it bothering him so much?
'Why should I even think about it? Yamamoto and I aren't even dating!' He thought.
Yamamoto rolled over to his side. His arm landed on him and pulled him closer to a tight embrace. This was a natural thing. He couldn't be surprise if he found his Rain guardian lying on top of him the next morning. Well, maybe that's going a bit too far. But the main point is that there should be no reason he should be feeling jealous. Tsuna closed his eyes tiredly, accepting the warmth from Yamamoto.
'Should we even do this?' He thought.
"Tsuna...?" Yamamoto mumbled.
Yamamoto woke up to find something weighing on his arm. It was Tsuna nevertheless. It was a natural thing to find each other in an embrace nowadays. Yamamoto tiredly rubbed his eyes before staring at his sleeping friend. He smiled gently as he caressed his cheek. Tsuna looked angelic at that moment. Yamamoto found himself moving closer unconsciously. The feeling of nervousness was beginning to overwhelm him.
"Tsuna... I..." He whispered.
Closer and closer he drew himself. At this point, his body was turning cold. He instantly stopped his actions and closed his eyes. Rustling sounds coming from Tsuna entered his ears. With his eyes closed, he could have guessed that Tsuna is wide awake and sitting up. And his arm was feeling lighter again. The brunet yawned loudly as he stretched his arms. He rubbed the back of his neck and stared at Yamamoto.
"Yamamoto... School... Get up..."
After two minutes of that, Tsuna dropped back to his spot on the bed, softly snoring away. Yamamoto slowly removes his arm from the brunet. Tsuna already forget it was a Saturday. The Rain guardian sat up from the bed, making way out of the room. It would be best to let him sleep in for now. Yamamoto walked downstairs to the kitchen.
"Might as well make breakfast for everyone." He muttered to himself.
Dino entered the living room when Yamamoto was preparing the coffee. The bronco blond smiled weakly and goofy, signaling that he wants some. Yamamoto smiled back and said that he'll make his immediately. Dino took a seat as he ran his hand through his blond hair. It was a long night for him since Matthew was being clingy to Tsuna.
"So, did anything happen between you and Tsuna?"
"What do you mean 'did anything happen'? Nothing happened."
"Really? No ignoring, no silent treatment? Anything that might have been weird?"
"What are you trying to say? Why would Tsuna do that?"
Dino shrugged his shoulders as he took a sip of his fresh batch of coffee. He thought that Tsuna was still grumpy over their conversation yesterday. He settled his drink back down to the table and stared at it. A devious plan brew in his head. If Reborn isn't here to do them, he might as well take the role. Hopefully, Matthew won't hate him for this.
"Oh, are you still practicing that play Romeo and Juliet right?" Dino asked.
"Yeah... Gokudera and I didn't get that far since he didn't play a major role..."
"You don't mind me watching right? I want to see your acting skills."
"Sure. And Matthew can join in too. It'll be fun."
Dino mentally chuckled to himself. He just hopes that Yamamoto doesn't regret those words.
Tsuna was blushing brightly. After eating breakfast, Yamamoto and Dino suggested that they should practice the play. Not that he got a say to begin with. So one hand is holding Matthew as he was playing on his laps while the other is holding his script. Matthew was trying to hit the script from his hands playfully and mumbling words. Yamamoto was memorizing his lines with Dino's help.
Apparently there was a particular scene that Dino wants to do first. Tsuna didn't have a choice since the two of them decided before they heard his answer. He already went over his lines already. And that's part of the reason as to why he's blushing. Dino finally pats Yamamoto's shoulder as a sign that he's done. Yamamoto moved in front of the brunet.
"Let's get started then Tsuna. I'll start first."
"O-Okay then..."
"O true apothecary! Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die."
Yamamoto then pretended to faint by throwing himself to the floor. Tsuna approached him, holding Matthew close to his chest. Matthew was in his own little world. Before the start of their practice, Dino told him to remember a certain line when Yamamoto was done with his. That made Tsuna thought his babysitter was planning something. He leaned down close to Yamamoto's face.
"Haply some poison yet doth hang on them, to make die with a restorative."
The thing that made Tsuna stop his track was what he was meant to do. He was supposed to kiss Yamamoto. Yet he couldn't. It was too embarrassing and would possible to a strain in their friendship. He wouldn't want that.
"Tsuna, you know what to do right?"
"I know... I just can't..."
"You have to. It's part of the script."
Tsuna sat straight as he adjust Matthew's position on his lap. A blush formed on his cheeks as he looked away. Yamamoto sat up after he noticed that Tsuna wasn't saying his lines. Dino said something about Tsuna might not know what to do because of his inexperience of the matter. Yamamoto thought it was about his acting. Apparently, it wasn't.
Yamamoto watched as Dino moved closer to Tsuna's side. He felt something off about his blond friend. He didn't like it. He wanted Dino to stay where he was instead of moving closer to the brunet. His eyes sharpen and grew dark as he watched. Dino held Tsuna's chin up high with his hand and drew closer. Much to Yamamoto's distress, he was moving too close. Every part of his body froze. He couldn't do a single thing.
'Don't do it... Don't do it...' He chanted.
The distance between Dino and Tsuna was getting smaller and smaller. Yamamoto was panicking at this point. He has to do something. By that point, he rushed to Tsuna's side, embraced him and Matthew, and pushed Dino away harshly. He glared darkly at the blond. It had one message, 'don't touch my Tsuna'. Dino caught the hint and brought both of his hands up in defense.
"Sorry about that. Won't happen again. I should take Matthew and go. He must be hungry."
Tsuna handed over Matthew to Dino. Unfortunately, the baby began to throw a fit the minute Dino had him. He was mad. Very, very mad. The blond bronco took the baby and left the room for Yamamoto and Tsuna's privacy. At least he can say that it was a mission completed.
Tsuna was rolling his script absentminded. He was looking at everything but Yamamoto. He couldn't. Yamamoto slowly release the brunet and moved away. He couldn't believe what he just did. That was just instinct. The Rain guardian felt like he had to do it. Or else he would feel threaten. Yamamoto scratched the back of his neck awkwardly.
"Tsuna... About what just happened... Sorry. Didn't know what came over me."
"I-It's okay. No damages done..."
"So, what was that all about? You know... With you and him about to..."
"He said that I needed some experience. So that happened. I was never good with kissing."
"Maybe I can help you with that."
Before Tsuna could blink, or do anything, Yamamoto came in too close and too fast. It was unbelievable how fast it took for him to lose his first kiss. To make it worse, he lost it to Yamamoto. He slowly closed his eyes as the kiss drew on. It felt nice. That was what the brunet was thinking when he was kissing Yamamoto. The Rain guardian pulled away for air. He stared at Tsuna's blushing face. In return, he did the same.
"Was... Was it good?" Yamamoto asked.
"Yeah... Really good."
With that, the two of them separated. Tsuna was sitting next to his bed, pressing his hand on his lips. Yamamoto was across the room against his closet, slightly blushing. That was embarrassing. Of course it was. A few seconds ago, they were just kissing! Tsuna side-glance at Yamamoto. He would have guessed his friend was feeling all awkward and bubbly as he was.
"Tsuna, about that kiss... It was for practice. So, that shouldn't count."
Tsuna's heart dropped to his stomach after breaking into millions of piece. That was cruel. Yet he shouldn't complain. Tsuna nodded in agreement that it was just a practice kiss and that it didn't matter. Nor should they ever mention it again. The brunet ran his hand through his messy hair as his bangs covered his eyes. It meant nothing. If it meant nothing, why does he feel hurt by it?
'Push it aside... Of course it shouldn't count. We're not even dating.' Tsuna thought.
"I'm going to head downstairs. Dino is probably having trouble with Matthew." Yamamoto said.
"Yeah, sure. I'll be down there later. I have something to do here."
With that, Yamamoto left the room. Tsuna stared at the door before hugging his legs. He pressed his forehead against his knees.
"Just forget about it. That way, it'll hurt less." Tsuna muttered.
