To say Tsuna was surprised would be an understatement. He would have been less surprised to see Xanxus bursting through his door. Even Squalo seemed a more likely candidate; Especially since Squalo, had taken the habit of coming to Tsuna whenever he got hurt.

Usually Tsuna would just wrap the wound, give him a bottle of whiskey and they would watch a movie together. Last week they watched the Bourne Identity, and before that 27 Dresses, which they supposedly just watched to pass the time.

Tsuna thought otherwise.

Anyway, Tsuna dropped his flames and just stared. Ryohei and fucking Hibari Kyouya, stood in his doorway. Hibari was carrying a single suitcase, and a cute little bird cage. Having nothing else come to mind Tsuna commented on it.

"Is that for Hibird?" he remained silent, and put the cage on Tsuna's vanity.

"This is one extreme shindig little bro!" Ryohei's extreme attitude toned down, due to jetlag. To prove his point his older brother let out a roar which Tsuna assumed was a yawn.

Tsuna took a moment to see, that his sleeping mates had relaxed from their protective stances. Colonello dropped his gun and Fong slumped in his fighting stance, yet still looked ready to attack if things turned sour. Uni had thrown herself in front of Tsuna; or had attempted, since he had lit his flames before she even had the chance.

Instead she looked ready to knock him to the ground. Did he really look that fragile? Before the incident they wouldn't even lift a finger. That was how much they trusted his ability to protect his family.

Then all three of them slid off the bed, before she slipped off Uni kissed him lightly on the lips. Tsuna assumed it to the kind of kiss a sister gives a brother and brushed it off as a European quirk. He had to admit even he did it now; he didn't even find it strange till Lambo had visited for a week on his orders to visit The Bonivos. He kissed the boy who responded with a deep blush.

With that thought in mind he still greeted his family in the same European way, afterward put his hands on his hips knotting his toes through the plush rug.

"I'm assuming you are my reward?"

"I am no one's reward Tsunayoshi" instead of cringing Tsuna smiled and turned to Ryohei who was looking around eagerly.

"So, do you want me to get you your guest rooms?"

"No; we are here on a mission." Tsuna quirked an eyebrow, clearly surprised. "Your old grandfather man, send us here to overlook your recovery. Since I see you are now a carnivore I can see why. On the bed Tsunayoshi." He pointed at the mattress and Tsuna crawled back on it. He then patted the spot next to him so Ryohei could sleep.

apparently they weren't sent to Tsuna as a prize, they were sent so he could slow down. Fuck, he groaned internally with Hibari watching his every move he would get no work done. Instead of fretting over it; Tsuna made light of the situation and smiled at Hibari and patted the spot on his other side.

The young man took off his shoes and coat and sat down next to Tsuna who was working on removing Ryohei's shoes. He must have been tired since he was asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. He tucked him in, which caused his muscles to spasm again. He clenched his teeth and felt a blood vessel pop in his eye. Hibari took him and laid him down slowly. Tsuna saw stars as the pain faded to slow thump.


Upon the arrival of the guardians Coyote, had instructed the maids to tell him of the arrival. So when they didn't, he was in a rush to find them. So far he had learned they punched their guide, who was going to take them to their rooms. After that he assumed they went to find Tsunayoshi. According to his sources, that were being lazy; they had found their way to him fairly quickly.

Coyote found himself standing at Tsunayoshi's door, hesitant to enter. Because if he entered he would be resigned to having seen the damage they caused.

He heard all about the two guardians The Ninth had sent his way. One overexcite able, and strong. the other a battle hungry, masochist. Both known for causing destruction on large scale; for instance if he broke a door they broke a house. if he broke a house they destroyed a large building. Why did they have to be so strong?

He sighed and finally resigned himself to the destruction as he entered Tsunayoshi's immaculate sitting room.

Since his arrival Tsuna tended to keep this Sitting chambers clean, since that was where he usually entertained The Ninth; His main sleeping quarters, a completely different matter. The room usually littered by school work and large volumes assigned to him by Reborn. Not to mention shell casings from inside his coats and the coats themselves lying forgotten Taking up half the floor

Although right now most of his mess was stacked in a corner. So his eyes traveled to the three of them, lying on Tsunayoshi's too large bed.

The Cloud and The Sky watched television. As the rambunctious Sun Guardian rebooted, sprawled on the bed.

They were obviously taking care of him. Tsuna was in a large boxing sweatshirt, and had strawberry barrettes in his hair. Which if he remembered correctly the Sun's sister had sent for him. The Sun had discussed it with him over the telephone as they made preparations for the trip.

Tsuna was curled into the cloud; with his head on the boy's stomach as they watched the morning news.

"That explosion that they are investigating was me. That was like three weeks ago though. I was fighting a group that was smuggling boxes." The cloud nodded, fascinated by the information.

When they didn't react to his presence; coyote realized what Tsuna was doing. He was showing him that he could tame the beast; and that once again his worries are for nothing. Also that no matter how long they are apart, he could still slip back into the relationships he left back in Japan.

"Coyote, can you find out about Lussi's work out video? I want Ryohei to master it before he goes and sees him. I don't want to have to pay for his visits to the physiatrist after he is raped by him."

"Knowing that fool, he would let him, or think it was a battle of some sort." Tsuna's smiled indulgently at his cloud, and looked back at Coyote and said "please….." Coyote nodded.

"But don't break anything. "

"If wishes were horses, beggars would ride."

"I can see why your father loves you" Coyote dropped into the dark couch in the corner.

"He loves me because he's a douche." Coyote's response was to snort obnoxiously.


Half way through Ryohei's work out Tsuna got a call from the ninth. He put his cell phone to his ear the small device fumbled into his hands.

"Hello?"

"Tsunayoshi, I assume you are well?"

"Yes, especially since I thought my reward was going to be the Varia again."

"I would never do such a thing, well not again at least."

"I don't expect you to either."

"Still sowing up the bullet holes I presume?"

"You, presume correctly." Tsuna smiled at the relaxed banter, and melted further into his pillow; which just so happened to be a snoozing Hibari.

He had been surprisingly lenient during his time with Tsuna, and Ryohei had been shockingly calm. It either had to do with their time apart. Or because they knew how much pain he was under.

Even if they toned it down boys will be boys and Tsuna still shivered when he glimpsed the blood on the walls. According to his Grandfather, the boys would only be here a while with Tsuna, before being taken under the wing of their respective trainers. Hibari would go to Dino and Ryohei would hustle to the Varia compound. Something Tsuna was sure Xanxus would not be happy with.

If Xanxus was not happy with something, even remotely pertaining to Tsuna he made his intensions clear. Usually by showing up in Tsuna's door way; In a similar fashion to Squalo when he was injured.


Tsuna lowered his body, so his nose almost touched the ground and looked up. He smiled at the bit of black peeking from a bush and lunged; pushing his body forward to move as fast as possible. He realized the ruse, when he was foot away and quickly changed direction before he was almost shot by a bullet. He ricochet off a rock and pushed in a different direction using his flames to maintain momentum. His hand landed on the ground blowing enough dust for cover. He followed his intuition and found Reborn on top of a large boulder. Tsuna's hand at on Reborn's neck, ready to push him down at any moment. Sadly Reborn had the upper hand, His gun at Tsuna's temple.

"Tsk, tsk not quick enough," his dark voice rolling through Tsuna's mind like the bullet he held between his fingers. His mind now sensitive after unleashing the full height of his intuition made Reborn's innocent words sound anything but innocent. He dropped his flames and jumped from the boulder in time to stop a silent Xanxus. He landed a solid punch to his jaw before sliding backwards to avoid Xanxus counter argument courtesy of his fist.

"I knew you were in the mountains, just not training." Tsuna looked up at him from the dirty ground.

"I'm always training." He took a moment to stand, and clean off the blood from Xanxus lip. Tsuna leaned forward and with his tongue slowly cleaned it off.

"Tease,"

"Asshole" Reborn stopped the argument with a sharp slap to Tsuna's head.

"Why are you here?" Tsuna looked at him worried, since he had Ryohei in the Varia's care.

"It's been four months; the old man sent them home." Tsuna pouted; knowing that he hadn't been able to send them off. At least he spent a lot of time with them. The thought eased the pain of the separation. "He wants you home now, and in school before it starts. He mentioned something about him paying too much for you to spend all your time fucking your tutor in the mountains." Tsuna glanced at Reborn. Hoping that was really the case during his stay in the mountains.

"He wishes," Tsuna really did wish.


After training in the mountains so long Tsuna felt weird returning to his school in Italy. A school where he was alone most of the time, he was a loner just like in middle school. He sighed and continued through the hall to his first class, chemistry. He found the class easy since he had to do so much extra work on it with Reborn. It was like that with all his classes. He entered the room with just his chemistry book. The class looked surprised to see him after so long.

"Mr. Sawada, how good to see you."

"Likewise Professor," The old man smiled indulgently at Tsuna. Tsuna turned in his work via email every night. So he felt no unease from the man, he took the front seat of the last row as his own, so he was as close to the door as possible.

Bel was known for tracking Tsuna. So to keep interruptions to a minimum, if Tsuna saw him he would collect him and call someone to get him back to the Varia. Thankfully today was not one of those occasions so Tsuna sat through class uninterrupted.

Usually knowing Ryohei and Hibari would be home after school made his days go much faster. But now that they returned to Japan, he felt lonely. They were only in Italy so long to train for the future, especially since they were the two progressing the fastest.

He wrote down what the teacher said, simultaneously thinking of the threat to the Vongola; A group of people attacking innocents known to be under Vongola protection. How long would it be till they went too far?

The rest for the day went in much the same order for Tsuna boredom and unease till lunch. He brought his own lunch after having a taste of the prison food they sold at the cafeteria. He took off his large cardigan and sat down at the base of a tree behind the school. His usual hang out, away from the rest of the student body who hung out in groups near the doors.

Since he picked a science focused school he had math for the next three hours, took the time to look over his packet of makeup work before turning it in. Even if he knew it was perfectly done already.

He remembered eating lunch with his Famiglia and immediately felt lonely.

How much longer would his days feel so empty?

Reborn was his only constant now and he thanked everything in the world for it.
