They've been dating for awhile now. Well, dating isn't really the right word in their situation. Dating implies that the two involved are willing and have a genuine interest in each other. In their case, it could be considered as courting. Kind of like the way birds do it, where the male bird tries its hardest to impress the female bird by showing off its skills and good looks. But, Hibari's not a female bird so that might not be a good example.
In any case,Yamamoto was attracted to Hibari after running into him at a convenience store, and decided, quite suddenly, that he wanted to pursue a relationship with the skylark. So, Yamamoto, like only Yamamoto would, started their relationship by acting like Namimori's boxing captain, Sasagawa Ryohei. He started trailing Hibari at every chance he got, trying to get his attention by bothering him and not giving up. It did, after all, work for Ryohei so Yamamoto figured it'd work for him too. Sadly, that hadn't been very successful after awhile. Sure, it helped in the beginning. It got Hibari's attention, but after a few weeks, Hibari caught on to what he was doing and started ignoring him again.
Sigh. What was he to do right? Well luckily, he talked to the kiddo, and he suggested that Yamamoto take some of Gokudera's toys, his dynamite, and light them up in the reception room while Hibari was sleeping. Needless to say, the room is under quite an extensive reconstruction. But, in his defense, Yamamoto had thought those toys to be firecrackers, so imagine his surprised when, instead of waking Hibari up with a small bang, it woke the other up with a humungously big bang. Honestly, how was he suppose to know?
However, the dynamites did do the trick. Hibari woke up, took a look around and spotted Yamamoto in the whole mess and immediately attacked him. Yamamoto, luckily, had listen to the kiddo and brought his sword with him. They had a nice spar that ended with Yamamoto in the hospital for a week, in which, much to Yamamoto's joy, Hibari visited once to tell him he'd spend the next month cleaning up his mess.
So, he spent the month, under Hibari's strict observation, cleaning up the reception room and chatting animatedly with the prefect. During that time, whatever Hibari asked him to do, he did and with great pleasure. After awhile, Hibari got used to him, and kept him around even after he was done cleaning up the mess. He told Yamamoto that the other was a...convenience of sort. Much to say, Yamamoto was a slave from then on, but he doesn't mind.
So, yup. They've been "dating" for awhile now, and, if one were to ask Yamamoto how his relationship with the skylark is going, he'd say it's heaven.
