*_*_*_*

The girl ( no, woman, she grew, mentally and physically) walked inside Vongola base, wandering around, smiling softly to anyone who decided to greet her. Her hand gripping the little bag that hung on her shoulder, a habit, because you don't know by whom and when you're going to be robbed outside. She smiled again, now to herself, and walked a bit slower, eyes watching her steps, making sure she wouldn't be tripped by random things (God knows when will the ten years younger Lambo would appear and place his things on the way, after the day Tsuna tripped by a bar of soap, both learned to be careful).

Looking up, she saw her former classmate, she smiled. A few steps before her, a certain raven haired swordman waved and walks toward her, smiling all the way. She waited until he's close enough to greet.

"Hey, are you here to meet Tsuna?" asked Yamamoto, smiling, "Must be good being a newlywed huh?" he added, laughing as the woman blushes.

"Ah, that's right. He's been busy lately….." she smiled, then added in a whisper, "It feels like he's slipping away…." She lifted her head and smiled brighter, "Do you know where he is, Yamamoto-san?" she asked.

"He's in the garden," he said, pointing to the way he came from, Kyoko's eyebrow rose, "We were talking about…er…something, but he said the atmosphere in his room is stifling, and that he'd like to go outside, so yeah…." He reasoned, grinning.

"May I know what was it about?" she asked, eyes scanning for any sign of lie. Yamamoto scratched the back of his head, seemingly confused. "…..I see….it's okay you don't need to tell me." She said then, with a small smile.

"It's nothing important, really….." he was considering whether to tell the woman about their conversation or not when he saw that the woman's head hung low, seemingly sad about something. "…Kyoko?" he called, he was sure Gokudera would smack him if he heard him calling the brunette like that ("That's the tenth's wife, show some respect, you idiot!").

"….For me to ask something like this…you probably would think that I'm weird…..but…" she hesitated for a few seconds and Yamamoto could hear her shaky breath when she inhaled and exhaled, "..You…what do you think of Tsu-kun?" she asked, looking up to the tall man, who only stared at her in response, completely confused.

"….Huh?" was his only answer.

"Just…just what do you think of him?!" she snapped, Yamamoto blinked, unsure of what angered her so, "Do you see him as a brother, a friend, best friend…or…or…." Enough said, her throat feels dry, and her tears tell the rest of her sentence, after all.

"….ahha, you're kidding right? Eh, Kyoko?" he said absentmindedly, unconsciously making the woman's sobs even louder. "Eh….I mean, how could I.…to him…." He said slowly, unsure about what he should and must say to calm the girl, "Uh…both of us are men, so…..That's kind of…." he was still searching for the right words when Kyoko cut him.

"It's not impossible! I know that Dino-san and Hibari-san are together, also, I know what's inside Irie-san's computer." She blurted out, Yamamoto's eyes widened in shock, "Ah, no, it wasn't me, Haru-chan and I dared Spanner-san to break through Irie-san's system….umm…." she reasoned, then realizing her main purpose, she said, "B-but….!! Please, please just tell me…."

From his peripheral vision, he could see Gokudera just few steps away from them, when the woman wasn't watching, he mouthed to the silver haired male, 'Call Tsuna,' which was replied by a flip of his middle finger and him mouthing 'Don't order me around, you idiot,'the silver haired male was going to yell, but seeing that the woman over there is in some kind of trouble, he decided against it.

"Ah..but, why do you think that way? He's married to you, he surely loves you, what made you think that way?" he asked, smiling, which made the woman glared (seems like a kitten trying to glare at anyone who tried to approach it, in Yamamoto's opinion).

"But…but…he spends most of his time here….and…." she paused to catch the breath that she'd forgotten to take earlier, "…they say that being together could make people fall in love easily…" Yamamoto was even more confused by this.

"Uhh…but, there are others, you know….? Why me, why not them….?" He asked slowly.

"Like I said before, Hibari-san is with Dino-san, and Mukuro-san is always with Chrome-chan, there's no way he'd get close to Tsu-kun, Irie-san is….well,I know who he loves, and it's not Tsu-kun, Spanner-san is…..just, impossible," at this, Yamamoto's eyebrow rose, does that mean Kyoko thinks that Spanner is the only straight male in Vongola? "You know, because Spanner-san is always so busy with his projects, so…." Ah, Yamamoto thought, so it's because Spanner is totally in love with King Mosca? But, what about…. "….Lambo-chan thinks of Tsu-kun as his father, or brother," Kyoko's voice sounded unsure, "And Gokudera-san…..umm…..let's say he wouldn't dare to do anything…indecent toward Tsu-kun, I know that, so…." she paused, looking straight at Yamamoto's eyes, her expression hardened, "there's only you, Yamamoto-san." She finished her calculation (there's no need to mention her brother, and Yamamoto understood why), and Yamamoto was expecting her to point at him, saying 'You're the murderer!'

"But, please, Yamamoto-san…. Don't take him…." Her sobs were stopped, but her cheeks are still wet, "..or else…." Her head was hung so low that Yamamoto couldn't see her expression, she lifted her head, smiling widely, "…I'll curse you to death…?" she said and giggled, that's the first time Yamamoto's sure what his Father told him: women are frightening.

The woman's laughing stopped, and Yamamoto wondered what might come after that. "….Sorry…." she said, toying with the end of her hair."I feel unsecure lately….and sometimes I just explode…" she said, smiling apologetically, "Really, I'm sorry, Yamamoto-san…." Yamamoto only smiled, while wondering 'Women sure are confusing…..' he's thankful with the fact he's not interested in women.

That's when Yamamoto realized something, "Kyoko, could it be…." before they could continue their conversation, a familiar voice called for both of them, making them turned to the source of that voice, only to see Tsuna walking toward them, with Gokudera tailing behind.

"Kyoko-chan, why didn't you tell me you're going to visit?" asked Tsuna, confusion on his face, even more when he saw Kyoko's face looks even sadder. "Eh? Kyoko-chan? Are you alright? Ah, why are your cheeks wet?" he asked, wiping the woman's tears off.

"Ah, Tsuna, seems like she's ill, don't you think it would be better if you take her somewhere else?" said Yamamoto, trying to ease the atmosphere.

"Ah, that's right, thank you, Yamamoto-kun, I know I can count on you." Replied Tsuna, smiling, and Yamamoto could feel Kyoko's going to hate him for sure. "Come on, Kyoko-chan…." He said, and the woman nodded.

When they're out of hearing range, Yamamoto blurted out, "I think we're going to hear about the eleventh leader of Vongola soon….what do you think, Gokudera?" he asked the silver haired male, who replied with,

"What the hell?"

*_*_*_*

The next day, they heard from Tsuna that Kyoko's pregnant. It's been a month, but apparently, Kyoko kept it secret until she's sure she's bearing a baby ("I… I don't want to make you sad if my expectation was wrong, I'm so sorry…."), Gokudera raised an eyebrow when he heard Yamamoto chuckled.

"How did you know that she's pregnant?" he asked when the two of them are sitting alone on the couch, taking a break from their works.

"Ahh….because that's the first time she's angry toward me," he paused, and continue once Gokudera sent him the look that could be translated as 'WTF?!' "then I remembered, one of my old man customer was so pissed when the wasabi was gone before she even taste it, he quickly give her the new one, but man, that was unforgettable, turned out she was pregnant….Pop said women got sensitive at times like that," he said, grinning. Gokudera only huffed, annoyed at the fact that idiot beat him first.

"Still….why did she accuse me having an affair with Tsuna? I thought the most suspicious person would be you, Gokudera….." he said absent-mindedly, making the shorter male choke.

"I…. I wouldn't think of the Tenth that way!!" replied Gokudera, face red, Yamamoto only laughed. "What are you laughing at, you moron!"

"You know, from outsiders' point of view it seems like you're totally in love with him," said Yamamoto, "I also think that you're in love with him." He finished, smiling slightly.

"Heh, what if I am? Don't tell me you're jealous." He said, cursing his heart for beating too loud for his liking."I am." Was Yamamoto's short reply, he then stood, and proceeding to walk away, intending to leave Gokudera with his thoughts alone.

"…. It's impossible for me to like the Tenth that way, because I already like someone else." Said the silver haired Italian , effectively getting the other's attention toward him.

"Is that so? I hope the two of you'd be happy then," said Yamamoto, laughing, unconsciously making the Italian's eyebrows scrunched in annoyance.

"You really wish for my happiness?" he said and stood, then walked toward where Yamamoto is. He could see Yamamoto's idiotic face showed hints of confusion, but nodded not so long after, "….then…." he paused, hesitated, "then, come to me and say that you love me, moron." He said, punching Yamamoto's shoulder lightly as he walked pass him. The Japanese swordman froze for a moment, then laughed, even more when he recalled the moment he saw Gokudera's face (and ears) was as red as an apple.

Later that day, a repeated "I love you" could be heard throughout the place, with a voice that sounded suspiciously like the Raid Guardian's replied with yells that sounded suspiciously like the Storm Guardian, Tsuna could only shook his head lightly. It remains a mystery to him why his wife giggled happily when he told her what happened that day.
