Well now that, that's over with here is Chapter 3!
Chapter 3: Tsuna's Day and Unavoidable Sleepovers
Tsuna is running. Why is he running? Well after his awkward/embarrassing moment with Giotto, Tsuna just so happened to get caught by a pack of dogs. It was a good thing he was caught though because of the dogs Tsuna just so happened to make it to school on time. He quickly went in the front door, changed his shoes, and walked to class. Everything was going fine until three bullies caught sight of him.
"Well, well, well if it isn't Dame-Tsuna." One of the bullies said.
Tsuna froze, ' First dogs then bullies, w-what do I do?'
"Hey, Naru I think he's ignoring you. You should teach him a lesson." a second bully said.
Naru smirked "You're right." Naru walked up to Tsuna and grabbed his wrist. "You're coming with us."
Naru and the other 2 bullies then dragged Tsuna to an abandoned old school building. Naru opened the door to the building and threw Tsuna in. Once inside the building Naru's 2 friends blocked the door.
"There's nowhere to run Dame-Tsuna." Naru said as he cracked his knuckles.
Tsuna quickly got up and backed away. He knew fully well that there was no way out of this beating but that didn't replace the fact the he was scared. As he was backing away from Naru Tsuna hit a desk. While looking for another way to stall for time he didn't notice Naru was ready to punch his stomach. When he did notice it was too late. Tsuna could only feel the excruciating pain coming from his guts. He fell to the ground clutching his stomach groaning in pain, but Naru didn't care he started to kick Tsuna mercilessly. He left many bruises and one gash on each of his arms. It was only when he got tired and the school bell rang that he stopped.
"See you later loser!" Naru said as him and his friends left Tsuna on the ground hissing and groaning in pain.
After a few minutes Tsuna got up and left the building. He quickly made it to the bathroom without getting caught by Hibari, another bully, or a teacher. Once inside he tried his best to open his bag-with no help from the gashes on his arms-and pulled out a first-aid kit and some towels. He took out the necessary things, disinfectant and bandages. Tsuna hissed when he cleaned his blood off the gashes, and other cuts, and disinfected them. He then bandaged the gashes and cuts. When he was done he threw the towels away. He then cleaned his face. Tsuna was about to put away the first-aid kit but something caught his eye. There was writing on the back. He wondered how he didn't notice it before, but then remembered that Giotto was the one who usually treated his wounds, so he never really used the first-aid kit. Tsuna snapped out of his thoughts and read what was on the back. When he read it all he could do was smile and holds the kit tightly.
'I'm sorry I didn't get you something special, but when it came to you I thought of a first-aid kit. Anyway stay safe and well. Happy Birthday Tsunayoshi! Congratulations on turning 16!'
-Sincerely Giotto'
~Flashback~
Today was Tsuna's birthday but it was like any other day. Tsuna doesn't really have friends so he doesn't have a party or anything. His mother and him usually go to a cafe and eat cake slices and that was it. After that it was just a regular day. Like usual Tsuna managed to escape from a few bullies and was heading to his house. On the way to his house he was spotted by a certain blonde neighbor.
Giotto smiled at Tsuna "Oh, Tsunayoshi. Good evening."
Tsuna smiled back "Good evening Giotto. Shouldn't you be at work?"
Giotto walked towards Tsuna "Yes but I finished my work early so I could come home."
Tsuna tilted his head "Why?"
Giotto smiled at Tsuna and ruffled his hair "Because I heard it was your birthday so I thought I should give you a present. Now hold out your hands."
Tsuna did what he was told. Giotto gave him a first-aid kit.
"I'm sorry it isn't anything special. I didn't know what you liked but I thought a first-aid kit would come in handy." Giotto said sheepishly "Don't worry thought next year I'll get you something that I know you'll love."
Tsuna looked at the first-aid kit then back at Giotto. He shook his head and smiled "No, it's alright Giotto. I love it!"
"Really?" Giotto asked
"Yup, after all you gave it to me and thought it would help me. Of course I'd love it." Tsuna gave yet another smile to Giotto.
Giotto smiled back "I'm glad." Giotto leaned in and kissed Tsuna's forehead "Happy birthday Tsunayoshi"
~End of Flashback~
Tsuna was always very fond of that memory. It had been the first time anyone besides his mother that had given him a present. Tsuna put away the first-aid kit in his bag and left the bathroom to attend his classes. Fortunately for Tsuna he didn't get caught by anyone again and he attended his classes like usual. He later learned that Naru and his friends were caught by Hibari and were bitten to death. The only thing that ruined everything was that his arms ached like crazy because of the gashes. When he had time went to the infirmary to find some painkillers but found nothing. He just decided to just bear with the pain until he went home.
Surprisingly for Tsuna the day went by fast, but his happy day soon started to turn bad. He was on his was home when he spotted Naru and his friends again but this time they were a few feet away from his house. They were waiting for him to come home. Tsuna didn't know what to do. If he went home then he would surely get beaten up by them again and he could tell they mean to do worse. But he can't just wait until they leave, it would take too long and his mother would worry. Tsuna was having a mental debate on what to do until he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned ready to scream but soon calmed down when he saw sunset colored eyes. It was Giotto. Tsuna thought he was a complete idiot for not noticing Giotto and his car, but then again Tsuna was kind of in his own little world.
"Tsunayoshi is something wrong? Why are you standing there?" Giotto asked Tsuna
Tsuna looked down and played with the hem of his shirt "well you see... there are bullies near my house so..."
Giotto looked up. What Tsuna said was true. There were 3 boys waiting near his house looking around. "I see..." Giotto then turned back to Tsuna and smiled "How about you come to my house and wait until they leave? Then you wouldn't have to just stand here."
Tsuna looked at Giotto "C-can I really stay with you?" Then the memories of the kiss replayed in his head. Tsuna blushed and looked down "I-I mean I can't... I can just wait out here."
Giotto sighed "Please, Tsunayoshi? If it's about the kiss then we can talk about it in my house. So will you please come with me?" Giotto reached out his hand.
Tsuna looked at Giotto and then his hand and Giotto again. 'Maybe I should go with him. After all Giotto always thinks about my well-being and it's not a very good idea to just stay out here. Someone else might come and hurt me and they might notice me here. Also Giotto can explain the kiss, so why not?' Tsuna reached and grabbed Giotto's hand.
Giotto smiled and led Tsuna to the passenger seat of his car. Once seated Giotto walked around his car and sat on the driver's seat and drove to his house. It wasn't a long drive over but it helped. The bullies didn't even notice Tsuna going into the other house. When they were inside Giotto went to the phone and called Tsuna's mom and told her that Tsuna would be with him for a while. She approved and they both hung up. After the call Tsuna and Giotto sat in the living room. It was very quiet. Not one of them knew what to say. They knew they were supposed to go over the kiss but neither one knew how to bring it up. It was quiet for at least 5 minutes until Giotto actually tried to bring up the subject.
Giotto looked at Tsuna "So...I'm guessing you would like to know why I kissed you, right?"
"H-hai" Tsuna looked at Giotto.
Giotto took a deep breathe "Well to tell you the truth, all I can say is I love you Tsunayoshi." Tsuna blushed at the answer "I love the way you act. I love the way you're gentle and caring to everything." Giotto got up and walks closer to Tsuna and cupped his cheek "I love the way you look innocent and cute. All in all I love you for being you."
Tsuna was blushing to the point where steam can be coming out of his head. He didn't know what to say. No one had ever told him anything like this before. He didn't know how to react. He didn't know what his feelings for Giotto were but he was happy when he was with him. He was always nice to him. Tsuna didn't necessarily love him, but...but he decided to give Giotto a chance to make him.
"Thank you Giotto, for saying all that, but I have to tell you I'm not in love with you." Those were the words Giotto feared, but it went away when he felt Tsuna hold his hand. Tsuna gave Giotto a smile "But I would like to give you that chance. To say the truth I do like you, Giotto, but not in a romantic way. So you have to try to make me love you, Oka-" Tsuna was cut off when Giotto glomped him.
"Thank you, Tsunayoshi!" Giotto then gave Tsuna a quick peck on the lips.
Tsuna blushed a little bit more, but not as much as before.
After a few more seconds Giotto realized what he just did and got off Tsuna. "Sorry I got carried away, didn't I?"
Tsuna shook his head "It's alright."
Giotto smiled and gestured for Tsuna to get up "Now then let's check if those boys are gone."
Tsuna nodded and walk with him to the window. Unfortunately the boys were still there and it was getting late. It looked like they really wanted to beat Tsuna up.
Giotto sighed "Looks like they aren't leaving anytime soon. Wait here, I'll be right back." he left to the kitchen.
Tsuna took this chance to look around. He had never been inside Giotto's house before. Well only once when they first met, but he was extremely scared. So he didn't look around. Now that he has the chance to look, he realized Giotto's house is very comfy. It doesn't have too much or too little, just the perfect amount for someone to live. A few couches, some small tables, a TV, a lamp, and a bookshelf filled from top to bottom with books and antics. While going back to sit on the couch Tsuna found a candy jar. He was staring at it for a while thinking of whether to take one or not. He was in such a debate about it that he didn't notice Giotto walk in the room calling his name. What he did notice is that Giotto grabbed him from behind and pulled him into an embrace.
"You know if you wanted one. You could have just gotten one. I mean that's the point of a candy jar. It's not for display." Giotto said as he pulled the brunet into an embrace.
Tsuna blushed from the warm hug "Hieee! Giotto! What was that for?!" pouted Tsuna
Giotto smiled down at Tsuna "Well I did call your name but you were so busy having a staring contest with the candy jar I thought it would be a good idea to sneak attack you."
Tsuna looked down with a big blush on this face "Baka Giotto..." He whispered quietly but Giotto still heard him and laughed "That reminds me what where you going Giotto?"
"Hm?" Giotto looked down into curious brown caramel eyes "well I just finished talking with your mother and she said you can stay here for the night."
"Ha?" Tsuna looked at Giotto with utter confusion until he replayed what Giotto said in his head a couple of time. His blush died down a few seconds ago, but came back at full force. "W-what, I can't do that! I don't have my pajamas. Why can't I go home?"
"One, this is the perfect chance to make you love me and two, do you really want to face those bullies at night?" Giotto let Tsuna go and took a step back "Don't worry about pajamas I have some clothes that don't fit me so you can use them."
Tsuna sighed in defeat "O-okay, I'll stay."
"Yay! Now come on. I'll make you some food. You must be hungry, right?" Giotto said as he walked to the kitchen, while being followed by Tsuna.
They had a nice dinner with miso soup, rice, and some takoyaki Giotto bought before he came home. After the dinner Giotto teased Tsuna about taking a bath with him, which resulted in Tsuna blushing as red as a tomato and yelling at Giotto. After taking separate baths Giotto and Tsuna went to the bedroom, it was a cozy bedroom. One medium sized bed, a lamp, a small desk, and another bookshelf. Giotto's bedroom was much bigger than his but then again Giotto's house is a little bigger than his own.
"Um... Giotto?" Tsuna looked at Giotto "Where will I sleep?"
Giotto smile "On the bed with me of course. I can't have you sleeping on the cold floor and I don't think you'll let me sleep on the floor either so this is the only solution." Giotto explained
"What about the other bedroom?" Tsuna asked
"Well I changed that bedroom to my study, so if for some reason I have to take work home I can finish it there." Giotto explained
"...ok..."
"Hmm?" Giotto leaned closer to Tsuna "What was that?"
"I said ok I'll sleep with you." Tsuna repeated
Giotto's mind was going wild. 'Calm down, calm down, he meant sleep in the same bed as you not that 'other' thing, so calm down. Crap maybe G is right, I have become a pedophile. '
Tsuna was looking at Giotto as he had a small mental break down. "Giotto? Giotto, are you ok?"
"Huh? Yeah I'm alright. Let's go to bed" He said as he covered the blush, that he got from what Tsuna said, from his cheeks.
Tsuna and Giotto got into bed. Giotto was facing Tsuna's back, while Tsuna was a little embarrassed to face Giotto. Tsuna then took a deep breath, turned to Giotto and snuggled into his chest. Giotto looked at Tsuna surprised about the sudden movement, but just smiled and wrapped his arms around Tsuna's waist. He kissed Tsuna on the forehead and fell asleep. Tsuna, who is still awake, didn't want to admit it but he liked the blonde's warmth; especially the kiss on the forehead. He smiled and snuggled closer to him. There was one thing Tsuna knew for sure about Giotto. 'He will be able to make me love him' Tsuna thought and he fell asleep in Giotto's arms.
