Chapter 6| Can't Catch a Break

The next morning, I expected everything to go back to normal. Nuts would wake me up by playfully biting and scratching my face. If that didn't happen then my Giotto-nii would sneak in and tickle me, causing me to roll around in my bed, giggling like crazy and getting tangled up in my sheets while I tried to get away. It was funny how both "wake-up calls" resulted in me landing face first on the floor. No matter how many times it happened, it still embarrassed the hell out of me, but I got used to it over time.

With that being known, I was thoroughly shocked when I woke up in bed, in Giotto-nii's bed, cuddled tightly into his chest. I could hear, not to mention feel, his steady breathing, so I knew he was still asleep. But still! I forgot about what happened last night, and I forgot that we were snuggled extremely close together while we were only wearing our boxers! My face blew up in a heated shade of red as I felt every inch of my brother's toned body pressed against my slender back, and I gulped.

This triggered a couple things to happen:

1. I was reminded of my dreams, which caused me to remember what I did right before Giotto-nii came home. The blush on my face grew 2 shades redder.

2. My body decided to go against my brain's better judgment. I leaned back, snuggling closer into my brother's warmth, which caused him to groan softly in his sleep. Once again, I gulped. His groan was right next to my ear, and his breath ghosting over my sensitive skin sent shivers up and down my spine, causing me to shudder.

Feeling his body pressed against my back really excited me. No surprise there, but still. I didn't know how to handle this close contant, even though I've been dreaming about it nonstop. I giggled softly, not wanting to wake my brother's peaceful slumber. I was happy; I had finally confessed my feelings to Giotto, and he not only accepted them, but he returned them! I didn't know what to do next, but I had a feeling Giotto-nii knew. Listening to his steady breathing was making me sleepy. Without waking him, I slowly turned over on my other side.

That was a big mistake.

My eyes widen comically as I stared at my brother's muscular chest. 'It should illegal to be that damn sexy,' I mused, letting my wide eyes drink in every tight muscle on Giotto-nii's body. I bit my lip hard to hold back the moan that was trying so hard to escape. Just looking at his dangerous body made my cock hard and slightly leaky. The only thing that made this worse was that the summer heat made Giotto-nii sweat a bit in his sleep. My throat went dry and constricted as I stared at his slightly glistening body. I licked my dry lips as I watched a bead of sweat travel from his neck down to his chest before disappearing under the two thin sheets that covered us. If only I could just touch him without waking him...

"You know it's rude to stare at someone while they're sleeping, right, Tsuna-chi?"

His voice nearly scared me half to death, and I let out a girly shrieked, scrambling back to put some distance between us. "G-G-Giotto-n-nii! I-I'm sorr-HIIEE!" I scrambled back too far and ended up landing head first on Giotto's floor. "I-Itai..."

"Pffft! Hahaha, aww did little Tuna have an accident?"

Dame-Tsuna strikes again.

Ok, clearly I can't catch a break. Why? Because everything was just fine, until I let my mind wander to what happened earlier.

After I picked myself off of Giotto-nii floor, I grabbed my clothes then ran back to room like my boxers were lit on fire. I could still hear him laughing his stupid, sexy, blonde face off, but I ignored it. I let the little Tsuna in my head curse me our for about 5 minutes before I dragged myself to my closet. I needed a nice shower right about to now. Without really looking, I picked out some random, comfortable clothes then ran to the bathroom, just in a case a certain brother of mine decided to check on me. Quickly locking the door, I noticed that the bathroom was kinda like my best friend during this hectic period of my life. Pretty sad, ne?

I turned on the shower, adjusting the water slightly before stripping down and stepping in. I sighed blissfully, the warm water running over my body felt so good. Just like last time, I leaned back against the wall, letting my thoughts wander on their own accord.

Once again, I made myself look so stupid in front my brother! He was probably still laughing at me. 'Well, at least he's back to his normal self, right? He isn't acting weird around me or anything,' I told myself. Giotto-nii was still able to smile, laugh and joke around with me like he normally did, and I was happy for that. My feelings didn't really change how he treated me as a brother or a friend. The only thing that was different was the fact that we both are able to express our feelings for each other. Last night was an example of-

'Ohh no! Don't even think about last night, Dame-Tsuna!' I shook my head quickly. The Tsuna in my head was right; thinking about that was going to get me in some seriously embarrassing situations.

I pushed myself off the wall then started to wash myself. I tried my best to not think of the previous night, or my dreams. Both were damn near impossible to forget, but I had to at least try. Dame-Tsuna or not. With my soapy hands, I smacked my cheeks in determination. I just have to keep reminding myself that, 'It's got to be kept a secret. To other people, Giotto-nii and I are only close brothers. Nothing more, nothing less.'

I could so do this.

However, all my concentration was broken when I heard a knock at the door. "Yo, Tsuna-chi~ I need to take a piss. I'm gonna pick the lock, so I'm comin' in whether you like it or not~"

"Wh-Wha? B-B-Baka Giotto, s-stop it!"

After that highly embarrassing moment in the bathroom, I found myself sitting at the kitchen table, glaring (pouting) at my breakfast. Giotto-nii was sitting next to me with a extremely playful smirk on his handsome face. 'Stupid, blonde pervert! I hope Reborn works you overtime during the new school year!'

I sighed and as I remembered what happened. After my baka of a brother picked the locked, just like he said he was gonna do, I tried to run out of the bathroom while I was still wet. As you probably guessed, I tripped and slid across the bathroom floor on my wet ass, screaming, "HIIEE!" the whole way. My little escape gave Giotto-nii a prefect view of my bits and pieces, which made him laugh whole-heartedly. Highly embarrassing!

Once I got to my room, I dried myself off then started getting dressed. I slipped on my boxers, which were mostly white with red flames on the bottom then I pulled up my slightly loose, skinny jeans. I walked out of my room while I pulled my white t-shirt down.

When I reached the bottom of the stairs, Giotto was there looking at his phone, probably texting G. I took this time to admire him, and I blushed slightly. My brother made the most simple clothes look dangerously sexy. Giotto-nii was wearing a white button up shirt with his name written on the back in dark blue letters and some comfortable looking sweat pants. His blonde hair was messy as usual, but it looked good on him, and he was wearing his glasses. I repeat, dangerously sexy.

He noticed me staring at him and smiled at me. "You might wanna get a mop if you're gonna drool over the stairs, Tsuna-chi. Haha," he joked, walking into the kitchen to greet out parents. I blinked twice the quickly wiped my mouth, blushing heavily when I noticed that I was, in fact, drooling.

This brings us back to now. I refused to make eye contact with my brother, I kept playing with my napkin and I'm pretty sure my face was bright red. Just as I was about to start eating, I heard Giotto chuckle deeply at my angry (nervous) behavior. That really didn't help me since his deep chuckle sent chills of excitement down my spine.

I flinched, and slowly looked up at him, meeting his playful expression.

"You're makin' it a little obvious," He said, smirking.

I sighed and returned my gaze back to the rice and eggs. "Shut up, Gio-nii. I'm trying not to…." I trailed off.

Giotto chuckled again then reached over to ruffle my already messy hair. "It's no problem, Tsu-chi. You're just too cute when you're nervous. Besides," he paused then looked over his shoulder to see if mom or dad was looking in our direction before he leaned closer to me, my chocolate honey eyes locking intensely with his sky blue ones; the glass only intensified the color of his eyes. He lowered his voice to a deep, sexy whisper and said, "Only you and I know what 'happened' last night. And I wouldn't mind it if we continued later on."

I nodded, feeling heat rise into my cheeks as I pictured Giotto being so close and intimate with me. 'Someone help me...'

We spent most of the day with our parents. It was nice; all we did was watch movies, ones that were appropriate for me to watch, and talked about Giotto-nii's trip. Well, it was mostly mom who was actually interested. Dad was only trying to get his oldest son to talk about the wine and women, and my mom didn't even at an eye at her husband's behavior. I was glad to see that both of us could keep up this act in front of our parents. We didn't want them to worry about us, so this was for the best.

Close to eleven, our parents went to bed. I yawned and decided it was about time to lay down. My brother agreed, and we headed for the stairs with me leading the way. Even in my sleepy haze, I could feel Giotto-nii's intense gaze on my back. When we reached the top, I felt that Giotto was close behind. I turned around slightly, looking up at him with sleepy, honey eyes.

He just shook his head and leaned closer to me, talking in that deep, sexy voice again. "You want to sleep in my room again, Tsuna?" His hand gripped my shoulder gently. I paused, practically brain dead, and felt his chest press up against my back. I could feel his breath ghosting over the right side of my neck and ear.

"G-Giotto-nii?" I stammered, trying to concentrate on an actually answer.

"You don't have to," he said, sounding disappointed. "I won't-"

I spun around quickly, facing him. "I want to!" I said, cutting him off. My response was somewhat louder than a whisper, and I know my reddened cheeks put strawberries to shame.

Giotto's eyes lit up with mischief, and a huge smile crawled across his face; my blush deepened. "Come on," he said, tugging on my hand as he led me to his room.

Once we were in his room, he shut and locked his door. I felt my body break out into a cold sweat, and the little Tsuna in my head going into another mini panic attack. Giotto-nii turned my way and I immediately looked down, not wanting to meet his vivid eyes. I listened as his feet dragged across his light blue carpet then I saw his feet placed in front of mine. A lump grew in my throat. I was fighting with myself, not knowing whether or not I wanted to see his expression.

His expressions could make or break me at this point.

With a quick sigh of confidence, I slowly lifted my eyes up his body from his feet to his chest. I stopped, taking another quick breath. After a short pause, I cautiously peeked up at his eyes through the chocolate colored bangs that covered my own eyes. Giotto-nii's eyes were gleaming from the street light shining in through the window, and it kinda made them look fiery orange. My heart nearly stopped at the sight of his face, eyes and hair illuminated by the street light. His eyes held so much love and compassion, and I felt like I was drowning. I couldn't tell what was on his mind. I had a few ideas, but…

Giotto exhaled heavily, and my stomach turned. 'Was he as nervous as I was?' I mentally shook my head. 'When was this nervousness gonna go away?' Then he finally spoke, his voice somewhat shaky. "W-Wanna lay down?"

I quickly glanced towards the bed. It looked safe enough. "K-K-Kay." My voice was, obviously, shakier than his.

I climbed onto the bed first, lying down on my side then Giotto-nii laid down next to me so that we were facing each other. For awhile, we just stayed that way, with him rubbing my arm slowly. "You okay, Tsu-chi?" He laughed quietly.

I also giggled, blushing at the new nickname. "I think so."

"Nervous?"

"Only a little."

"Same here."

We laughed again nervously. At least the feeling was mutual.

"Well, what do you want to do?" Giotto asked.

"E-Eto…" I felt a little panicky. Can you blame me? "I don't know, Gio-nii. What do you want to do?"

"Heh, "He laughed again, sounding nervous. "Anything is fine. I just want Tsuna to be comfortable."

My mind froze at that, and my hands started to shake. I felt….hot. Like my body was suddenly lit with on fire, but it wasn't overwhelming. 'Giotto...'

What will happen now?

Will we just kill like last night?

Or will we go further?

Do I want to go further yet?

My thinking stopped when I felt his forehead press against mine. "You feel kinda hot," he said in a low, thoughtful voice.

'Yeah, I wonder why,' I thought. "Just nervous, Gio-nii…"

"Mm." He squeezed my arm slightly.

Even though we haven't done anything yet, I was still worried about something. If, and when, we go further than this, could I hide it from our parents as well as Giotto could? I wish we could act like a real couple. Just like my dreams, but we can't. At least, not yet. Would this even work out? Could we find a way to live together forever, and not have people getting suspicious? I suppose that we would eventually have to tell our parents. Their reactions...oh god, I have no clue what to expect from them. I can worry about that later.

Right now, I'm just going to think about the person I loved…who has been staring at me for the past 3 minutes now.

"Tsuna-chi?"

"Hmm?"

"Take your clothes off."

My jaw dropped, and my eyes widen. 'W-Was he s-s-serious?' My brother just blatantly told me to take my clothes off. I felt so alive, it was crazy! The flame from earlier was spreading, covering me in warmth. Until, 'W-Wait! If I'm naked….t-that means G-Giotto-nii will be t-t-touching me. HOLY-! Ok, ok, I have to stay calm.'

It took a second from my brain to remember how to function. "Y-Yeah, s-sure…." With a soft, 'Hiiee', I got up out of bed then pulled my shirt over my head. 'Ha, that wasn't so hard.'

"Want me to take mine off too?" Giotto asked.

I paused in the middle of undoing my jeans. "Yeah, if you want to," I whispered.

I saw him move off the bed. I focused on sliding my jeans and boxers down together, while trying not to fall over, or pass out. Which ever came first. I stayed standing there until I heard Giotto-nii slide under the thin covers on the bed. "You comin'?" he asked eagerly.

"Mhmm." I slid under the covers with him then he wrapped his arm around me, pulling me as close to him as possible. I loved this feeling of us basking in each others warmth, our skin pressed together. I wanted to touch him, so I placed a hand on his arm. In return, his hand felt my side, ran down my thigh then back up my side.

"Your skin is soft, Tsuna-chi." He rubbed the tip of his nose against mine. "Just like a girl."

I smiled at that. I rubbed my thumb back and forth across his shoulder. "So is yours, Gio-nii."

He shuddered then, all of a sudden, his lips slammed into mine, causing me to grip his shoulder tightly. This kiss was much more heated than the last kiss we shared. He hungrily pressed his lips to mine, and I willingly parted them. Giotto-nii's tongue danced fiercely with mine, moving deeper into my mouth as he worked me over. Our breathing quickened as did my pulse as I found myself being pushed down onto my back while our kiss continued. It seemed like his hands were everywhere as he held me.

He started running his right hand up and down my back, pressing hard or sometimes clawing at my skin slightly, making my body tremble deliciously against my brother's toned body. He worked that hand up to my neck, holding and tilting the back of my head to deepen our kiss. His right hand worked in tune with his breathing as I felt him spreading my knee's further apart. His hand gently slid down my side, down to my lower back, down my…virgin hole.

I clenched and squeaked out in surprise, which made him chuckle into our kiss. My cheeks became dangerously hot, and I felt like I was gonna pass out. I exhaled through my nose, my mouth opening more and Giotto took my lower lip between his teeth. His hand crept around to my front side. I opened my eyes wide as his fingers brushed against my inner thigh. My breath caught as he got closer to….

Then it was all over.

Suddenly, Giotto-nii's eyes were closed right before a little bit of light lit up the room. His eyes snapped open as his hand froze in place. He quickly sat up in the bed, throwing the covers off me. We held our breaths and listened for….footsteps that were going down the hall, and getting closer! 'HIIEE! I knew it! We're gonna get caught!' Giotto shot out of the bed, pulling on his boxers. I quickly did the same. However, my erection made that kinda difficult….

"Tsuna, lay back down," Giotto quietly demanded of me. I did what he said and pulled the thin covers over me. I saw that the front of his boxers were bulged out slightly before he turned. With his back to me he pulled his jeans back up.

Then there was a knock on the door. "Yeah?" Giotto answered calmly.

" 'Yasu-kun is Tsuna in there? He's not in his room." It was our dad. No one ever calls Giotto "Yasu-kun" and gets away with it expect our parents.

"Yeah, he's sleeping though," Giotto replied while looking over at me. He looked a little panicky, but his voice stayed calm; as always he had good control over himself when it came to situations like this.

"Oh, alright then. Sleep well, 'Yasu-kun." Then he walked off. We waited for the light in the hallway to shut off. When it was dark again, I heard Giotto-nii sigh.

I swallowed then coughed slightly; my throat seemed so dry. "You ok?" I asked.

Giotto took in a deep breath then looked back, smiling lazily at me. "Yeah, he just scared the shit outta me is all."

"Yeah, I bet." I heard him unzip his jeans then he crawled into bed again. He laid back next to me, both of us on our backs. "So?" I asked.

"Kinda freaked out now?" He laughed nervously.

"Yeah. W-Wanna just…." I trailed off.

"Go to sleep? I guess so…." He sounded disappointed. "We could try this again some other time."

"Agreed." I reached down for his hand and laced our fingers together.

"Well this sucks," he sighed.

"Heh, sorry."

"Hmph, it's not your fault."

"Hm." I squeezed his hand then he tightened his hand around mine in return.

"Love you, Tsu-chi."

"Love you too, Gio-nii."

"Try not to have wet dreams about me, y'dig?" He said with a chuckle.

I snorted. "Yeah, whatever."

'That's easier said than done, Giotto-nii...'

*tries not to laugh* Hehe, I'm not even gonna say anything. I know what I did, and why. So, you'll just have to wait until chapter 7 to see what happens next. Will Tsuna and Giotto ever fully act upon their desires for each other? Or will cock-blockers keep popping up our of nowhere? Should I throw Hibari and Mukuro into the mix, or just keep this simply like it is?
