His touches were ethereal on his skin, like there were tiny fairies dancing on his skin bringing a longing sensation that made him moan.
They were both naked and under the covers, the little light that seeped through the crack of the curtains were enough to highlight the pleasured expression on both their faces. And the soft breeze that ruffled the curtains softly only brought about a sweet melody as Tsunayoshi's face brightened when he found his brother's lips latching on his neck, sucking.
His brother's fingers were cold against his flushed skin. He liked the tingling sensation. He liked how his older brother would smile at him, his white teeth showing, his amber eyes filled with happiness. He liked it.
Moulding their bodies together, the twins groaned silently, their sweat mixing together as arms were wrapped around each other, soft whispers of nothing against each other's ears. Yet the joy and the smile it brought upon their faces from such a simple act was priceless.
His brother's smile that matched perfectly with the eyes gleaming with happiness, it was what he liked most. It was what he treasured most.
They belonged together, even if it was a taboo.
03: Taboo
'What was this?' Thought Tsuna as he refused to let go of his brother's hand, he wasn't surprised his parents didn't come rushing out after his screams. But it was his brother's name he was screaming out, so why weren't his parents rushing out with panicking faces? If it were Tsunayoshi that was screaming out his name would his parents come running with worry in their eyes? Probably not.
Holding his brother's limp hand, Tsuna cried silently. He knew it was forbidden, that this incest relationship he shares with his dear brother is a taboo, yet that does not stop him from loving his brother.
And then he thought about it inside the four white walls of the hospital ward, that perhaps if he were never so infatuated with his brother then Tsunayoshi would not be lying, half dead on the bed with white sheets, only living because of the advance technology of this day and age.
It was a terrible feeling as his hand grasped his brother's hand tightly before he slowly let go, his feelings, his guilt eating him alive.
He wouldn't know what to do if his younger brother left him like this. Hell, he'd probably follow him if he really left.
But the weight of the guilt, the regret was getting to him. Why could he not move when he clearly saw the car coming? He could of prevented the accident from happening. Right? Why was it only his voice that was ringing down the street? And yet it did not reach. If only he had ran towards his brother, stretching out his arm, his hand, then maybe he could have reached his brother.
What good is a worried expression and a voice that could not reach?
It was like he had just betrayed his brother in the worse possible way. Standing, rooted to the spot, watching with a worried face as the car came racing down the street. A voice that could not even come out to warn his brother.
He wasn't just a failure as an elder brother, but also a failure to be someone who could love Tsunayoshi.

A few days have passed since Tsuna was disowned and Tsunayoshi got into the road accident.
Iemitsu and Nana visited once, their faces worried, pained with anxiousness. And with trembling hands they held both of their son's faces before silent tears rolled down their faces. It was obvious that the two loved their sons from the bottom of their heart. It was clear. And Tsuna understood that.
However, Tsuna also understood that their parents could never forgive him and Tsunayoshi as well. A relationship not accepted by society is taboo, just like how murdering someone is a taboo, loving your own brother is a taboo.
Even so, Nana and Iemitsu understood clearly just how deep love is, and how it can drive one crazy. And they knew that like lovebirds, one will die without the other.
And so it was only expected as Nana and Iemitsu gave the unconscious younger son one last hug before they softly disowned him as well. For even though the relationship between brothers is a taboo, and punishable, Tsuna and Tsunayoshi were still their beloved sons in which they spent many years raising, spilling blood and tears, their treasured blood and bone, so it was only natural for them not to be able to watch the two suffer.
No matter how infuriated they were, no matter how disgusted, Nana and Iemitsu loved their son. And they left the hospital quietly, leaving behind their son's belongings in giant suitcases.

A few hours after Nana and Iemitsu's visit, Tsunayoshi woke up, scratching his head that had bumped, wincing at the pain in his limbs, frowning at the bandages that was wrapped tightly around him.
"Tsuna" murmured the younger brother as he slowly sat up, ignoring the pain that was rushing up his spine.
"Tsunayoshi" whispered Tsuna as he held his brother's hands once more "You just grazed your limbs and received quite the bump in your head. The doctor says you'll be as good as new soon" and he gave his younger brother a soft smile.
Returning the smile, Tsunayoshi kept staring at his brother "I thought I was going to a world without you, Tsuna" and he looked down a little before he talked in a much smaller voice "It was a painful dream. I never knew I could experience such pain." If Tsunayoshi hadn't looked up, he wouldn't have been able to see the trail of tears that were staining his brother's cheeks.
"It's okay, I would follow you wherever you go" Tsuna whispered. His hand grasping his brother's hand tightly
"And I too" replied Tsunayoshi as he slowly took a hand away from Tsuna's grasp, placing it on his brother's cheek, wiping the tears away "Everything is going to be okay, as long as we are together"
Nodding, Tsuna dropped his head a little before he apologised "I'm sorry, I don't know why I didn't run towards you at that time…"
Slightly frowning, Tsunayoshi's eyes smiled as his aching limbs pulled his elder brother into a hug "And I should be sorry for scaring you like that, being so careless."
Returning the hug, Tsuna placed a kiss on Tsunayoshi's forehead "So you're not sorry?"
Shrugging a little, Tsunayoshi closed his eyes as he placed himself back onto the bed, lying, his face facing the white ceiling "All I could think about was you. That's all"
And somehow, Tsuna understood, for all he could think about was his brother as well.
It was a silent night. A night in where Tsuna had to forgive himself, for he could not let go of his brother that loved him just as much and a brother that shared the same pain.

The wind rustled the leaves on the trees gently as it did with the locks of chestnut brown hair of the twins, walking side by side, hand in hand. A smile gracing their faces. It was going to be a fine day.
Pulling their suitcases along, they walked down the familiar streets, the familiar houses, the trees that rustled with the wind, as if they were greeting the brothers. The petals of flowers blooming, smiling, welcoming the brothers, it was indeed a fine day.
Walking up the familiar steps, Tsuna held his brother's hand tightly, giving the other a reassuring smile before he gathered his courage and pressed the doorbell.
It didn't take long before the door opened.
There was a slight pause before the man spoke "How may I help you?"
Tsunayoshi looked up, his face rather shy, yet his eyes still the same, sharp and unwavering. They were going to move on together, even if it was a taboo.
"I hear you've got a room to spare" Tsuna started, his voice nervous as he looked at the man before him with determined eyes that were afraid "Could you rent us that room?" Tsuna did winced at the small rise of the eyebrow on the man's face "Please?" he added as an afterthought.
Frowning the man stroked his chin before he called out into the house "Nana! There are two brats here that want to rent our spare room!"
Footsteps could be heard as the woman named Nana came rushing out, immediately throwing her arms around Tsuna and Tsunayoshi as she squeezed the air out of them.
"Of course! Of course!" cried Nana, smiling happily.
Sighing, the man; Iemitsu pulled his wife and the two brats into the house. It was going to be just like before. Taboo or not.
