A/N: Hello everyone~. I want you to know, I love you all~! And I don't know why I just said that, but it's true. I love everyone that reads, reviews, favorites, and subscribes to this story. Anyway, I updated... Again, I guess. I found out something everyone.. One day, my oldest sister (I have two, and I'm the youngest=_=") was singing a song, and I realized one of the stanzas were " Teach me how to love~." When I asked her what song that was she said, " Teach me how to Love." I totally freaked out! I kept screaming, " Holy shizz! I didn't know that was a song!" My sister just stared at me... Oh yeah, sorry for such a long wait... Was really lazy and needed some ideas and yeah... Yeah, sorry for babbling. Here are the...
Answers:
TsukikoIchihara: Well, yeah... One of your friends really did? Woah, that's just like.. Woah.. I know some people that aren't virgins anymore... My friend told me that her cousin was hand jobbed.. And he's just 5. And you know what was sicker? They were people from his daycare, when they were playing "Hide and Seek". He got traumatized. I don't blame him.. He's only 5.. But as you're friend, that's just.. Woah..
loveyaoigirl4ever: Ok, here how it goes. Tsunayoshi and Enma are together, correct. Cozart loves Giotto and Reborn loves Tsuna. But Giotto and Tsuna are together. And sometimes when people get a big blow to their head when their amnesiac, they get their memories back... Or at least that's what my friend told me... As for your pairings, that'll be like that for some time. Not now but later on in the story.
animebaka14: Haha, I get like that too~! Yeah, the last, last chapter had 5,000 something words, and the last chapter had 4,000 something words. So yeah, the previous chapter is a bit shorter. Uh, Idk how Tsuna would get mad.. Explain that to me, yeah? And your pairings are correct, but Tsuna-chan isn't mad. Update~!
Hexshell: Haha lol. Yeah, idk, but I just know that it's true.
OneSunnyNight: Whee~, haha. I know~! Daughter of White was soooo long~! Re_Birthday isn't in the Evil Story. It was the 3rd song in the Clockworks Lullaby series. It's on vocaloid wiki. Yeah I know, I actually go there. Just look for the series, and like there's a list. Oh, I also know that Mothy wrote a book. Like a real book based on the songs. I wanted to buy it so bad... Your suggestions might be used, so thank you. And it's true, you're very interesting. I was on your page one day looking for stories, and I happened to read your profile. You, too, shall be shocked at my age. Like really shocked~. Hehe, wheee~. Don't worry about your brain cells, mine are lost too... I also bumped my head under the table when my pencil dropped... It hurt, kinda. Hehehe, well jya nee~.
Yaoi-san and Minty-chan: I'll see about the stories since like I have 3 stories on my mind... I won't kill you, we have our different opinions. Hehe, my story is interesting? How? I think it's pretty "okay" or something. Mm, for proving Giotto-sama, IDK how. I'm pretty like, stupid right now since I bumped my head against the table and lost brain cells. Any advice? Maybe, it'll get more interesting.
IMPORTANT!: FROM THIS CHAPTER ON, THE TIME SETTING IS AT DECEMBER! IT'S LIKE THAT FOR VARIOUS REASONS!

Tsuna's POV
Once upon a time, no that's a totally bogus opening... Once upon a me, I had two siblings. My twin and my older brother. I had many friends too. But since they all loved me too much, they locked me in a skyscraping-tower thingie. I had two knights, and many guardians. I didn't see the point. So, one day, I decided to jump. I stood on the window frame and jumped like grasshoppers. Spinning, twirling, I accidentally entered an unknown world. Fushigi, I would call it, everything was upside down. Then all of a sudden, water flooded the world, I gasped but then I was able to breathe. I opened my eyes and saw my legs were transformed with a tail of a tuna. I swam around and pricked my index finger against a sea urchin. I fainted, losing my tail, I saw a rose bush and reached out for it. The final scenery, a clock tower between me and a prince. A glass slipper placed in the middle of us, I looked at it as it turned into a flame's ashes. A smiling face of my prince was lost as I woke up.
I let out a sigh as I opened my tired eyes. Sitting up, I stretched my arms above my head. Looking out the foggy window, I can see the shape of the sakura tree. Frozen, dashing it's coiled arms across the scene. I looked at my boring alarm clock, "7:27" it read. I yawned and lazily got out of bed. I was avoiding Tsunayoshi-kun's occupied bed, with Enma sleeping on it. As I grabbed fresh clothes and walked in the bathroom, I really woke up.
My caramel eyes widened at the figure before me. A beet red blush puffed on my face. I slowly closed the door and fell back onto my bed. My head was hot and was buried into my fluffy pillow. The sounds of chuckles echoed from the bathroom. I tried to erase the image of my own twin wearing nothing but a towel to cover his nether regions. His abs were glistening with the droplets of water, and his chocolate locks adorned his frame.
" Haha, sorry Tsuna. I've should've locked the door." he apologized as he got out and sat next to his sleeping lover.
" It-it's fine." I said as I walked away from the two.
Stepping into our awkwardly orange bathroom, I locked the door and stripped. As I filled the tub with lukewarm water, I gingerly stepped in and comfortably sat while extending my legs. At the right amount of water poured, I turned off the faucet. I reminisced the past and recent memories I've made so far. Gio-nii and I planned to go somewhere on Christmas Eve, aka tomorrow. And a Christmas party today. But Gio-nii told me he had to buy something before going on the date. He said it was really important and I had to wait at the cafe I work at. One thing I keep thinking about, for a very long time. Cozart-san told me he loves Gio-nii a lot. Gio-nii knows that, I'm very aware that he still holds feelings for Cozart-san. But, he told me he loves me way more. I just don't know anymore, my head hurts. Before it was Tsunayoshi-kun and Gio-nii but now for Gio-nii himself... There's a chance that he might choose Cozart-san... I don't want that!
But, Reborn-sempai told me on our birthdays, that he loved me for a very long time. He even lied to Gio-nii that he never saw me before, but in my depths of memories I've seen him once. It was on Gio-nii's birthday party. He wasn't able to come, but he came by to drop off Gio-nii's present. I opened the door since rabid fangirls were kissing up to him. He stared at me and said, " Wow. You look a lot like your brother. What's your name?" I smiled as I took the present from his hands as I said, " I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi! Call me Tsuna!" I remember his pure chuckles as he patted my head and said, " Nice to meet you, Tsuna. I'm Reborn, just Reborn. Well, I'll see you some time soon. Oh, and don't tell your brother you met me." I nodded as he smiled under his fedora hat and left. When I came back to snuggle cutely with Gio-nii, he asked me who was it, and I just smiled as I said, " My new sempai!" What should I do? Reborn-sempai has been hanging out with me, and saved me from delinquents that tried to harass me. He seemed so, prince like. The way that Gio-nii used to look like. In my eyes, Gio-nii is a God. I guess a male version of Aphrodite. God or prince? Without realizing it, I'm starting to like Reborn-sempai too. But, I can't be with him. I have Gio-nii, and Gio-nii can't be with Cozart-san. Because Gio-nii has me. So, what should I do?
My head spinning from too much heat, I got up and sprayed cold water on my figure as I cleansed myself for today.
Giotto's POV
Ever since we were kids, I've known everything about you. Every bit of your life, I know it all. All your secrets, talents, hobbies, everything. You are a very cutely strong, serious, and very independent person. However, it bothered me... The way you showed a sad face.. The way you showed the brightest and biggest smiles with your dazzling caramel eyes... I still remember, you probably don't though... It was the first time I became your ouji-san... It was on the day we first went to the amusement park with G and them... We all went in the haunted house with different partners and you got scared and ran away... When we all came out, I realized, that my precious beloved one wasn't there... So I ran back inside, three times in fact... Then on the fourth, I found you... You were in a part of the house that wasn't used anymore... I followed your shine, however... The time I saw you alone, your radiance was fading into the darkness... You were there... All alone, in a scary world of darkness and solitary... You were trembling in fear like never before... And your caramel eyes were adorned with lonely tears... At that time, you were so lovely and dear... That, from that day on, I wanted to protect you forever by keeping you smiling...
"Gio-nii~~! Gio-nii! Wake up! Gio-nii~!" the angelic voice of my little lover called out.
" Mmhmm.." I mumbled. As I opened my eyes, caramel pupils blinked.
" Finally, what were you dreaming about? You were in deep sleep mode." Tsuna smiled.
" I was dreaming about you..." I smiled back.
" W-w-w-w-well, t-thanks..." he blushed and tried to run away. As I grabbed his wrist and pulled him over to my chest, I felt a slight sensation of warmth.
" I don't wanna go yet..." I mumbled.
" B-but you have to! Today's the party, so tomorrow..." he paused, turning a great hue of red.
" So tomorrow, we can go out on our Christmas date." he smiled a little smiled.
" Yup~! Tomorrow, you're all mine." I smirked in a smugly manner.
"M-mou~! Don't say such embarrassing things." He blushed in a very dear manner.
" Can't help it, I only say the truth." I remarked as I softly grabbed and held his hand. Lifting it, I softly brushed my lips on his tender skin.
" So, princess. Are you ready for tomorrow?" I asked charmingly.
" Of course, I would love to spend it with you… And only you." He smiled.
" Dakara! Hurry up and go take a bath!" he demanded, pulling me up, but ended up failing. I chuckled. Such innocence and purity, all inside this one child. How, lovely his is, and he doesn't even realize it.
" Hai hai. For my princess, I shall." I stood up and stole his lips and happily walked in my sky colored bathroom.
Tsuna's POV
I cooked breakfast today. Sunny side up eggs, with some gratin, as well as mom's special curry that she taught me how to make. I left the dishes on the plate and trekked up the stairs to tell my brothers. I opened my shared room to find my twin and his lover kissing, as usual.
" Oi lovebirds, breakfast is ready~." I said, smiling as Tsunayoshi-kun said.
" Heh, don't cha know how to knock?" he smirked.
" Yeah, but this is my room too, y'know." I giggled.
" Anyways, just come down now." I smiled as I walked away and moved on to Gio-nii's room.
" Gio-nii~!" I happily open the door to reveal his godly presence wasn't there.
" Gio-nii?" I walked in the room, closing the door softly behind me.
I checked in his bathroom if he was there, but he wasn't. I somehow came with the idea that he's hiding in his closet, but that wouldn't be it. Checked under his bed, but then again... Gio-nii was too big for hiding under there. I sighed and fell on his bed. His white blankets smelled of his mature scent. And that's when I wondered, ' Will this relationship between me and Gio-nii continue? He's growing up so fast, and me... I'm still like a child. I rolled over to the side, letting the sheets cover my body.
" Gio-nii... I think that there will be a day where you'll leave my side for someone else...You won't be able to protect me anymore..." I uttered, little blobs of tears filling my eyes.
That's when I heard soft sighing outside the room. I got back up and looked outside his door. And then finally I gave up.. Where would Gio-nii be? I sighed and walked to the open window and laid my head on his desk. Another sigh, looking up I wondered. Is it possible that Gio-nii's outside of the house but not his room? I poked my head through his window and found him. He was sleeping, which was really dangerous from here.
" G-Gio-nii! Wake up! You're gonna die like that!" I screamed panicking.
" No I won't..." he muttered.
" D-dakedo..." I pouted.
" If you die, then we won't have our date tomorrow!" I shouted.
" Mmm, even if you won't go, I'll just force you by harassing the hell out of you..." I sighed.
" What are you doing there anyway?" I asked.
" Come here... I'll tell you the reason why I'm here..." he smiled.
I hesitated getting out the window. Stepping outside the boundary lines, I ducked my head and quickly sat down before I almost wobbled and fell off.
" So, why are you out here and not in there?" I asked.
" Because during the winter mornings, there aren't any sun right?"
" Well, yeah. But, that's like a few hours."
" Tsuna... You don't remember huh?" he asked.
" What? I remember! I got my memories back!"
" Then, do you remember when we were kids. You yearned for the sun so badly, that we'd sit out here together and wait."
" N-not really... I'm sorry."
" Well, we'd wait until a crack of morning glory finally came... You used to think that they were lonely lost loved souls that finally entered heaven..."
" T-that right..." I muttered.
" W-well, anyways. Let's go eat now. The food is getting cold." I said blushing for no reason.
But the way that Gio-nii looked like now with a beam of light directed at him, he looked so... Immortal. Godly, I guess. The way his dazed azure eyes sparkled just like fresh polished sapphires. His peach lush lips were apart and quivered a bit. They slowly formed into a smile as he turned to me and said.
" Okay then."
(Time skip to the next day-Sorry, I'm just getting more and more lazy~-still Tsuna's POV)
And just like the howling wind, the day flew by so fast. I can only remember the smiling happy faces of the people I cherished light up like ornaments. The dazzling smiles were shiny, the blushes of some were like peppermint candy canes. The Christmas carols that the girls sang and the music that us guys played. Exchanging gift-wrapped boxes with presents inside and the vodka that was poured into the fine wine glasses. Drinking alcohol while we were eating frosted sweet cakes. They don't match, but hey. Who gives a fuck right?
Urgh, my head is pounding, I really have a low alcohol tolerance. My body feels light though. I think I'm just high or something. My eyes slowly opened, eyelashes cracking and blurred vision. I only saw a vision of a white blanket wrapping me up. Trying to read the alarm clock, its red digits said 3:48 P.M. I opened my eyes fully and sat up. Chilly wind filled the room and made my exposed skin get goose bumps. I looked around, where am I?
Cherry blossoms' petals fell down, the wind carrying them gracefully, softly. The sky was a fiery sunset orange, the ruby sun on the boundary lines of the earth. The enamel moon was far in the distance in the upper dark indigo skies. The pure lights of the asterisks in the sky were shining, sparkling. I sat on a swing hanging from a all-season tree. The leaves on the right were cherry blossoms saying spring, blending a warm green for summer, then orange red leaves for autumn, and just shooting arms into the sky representing the cold winter. Swinging back and forth, obviously, I was in a dream. A rather peaceful one too.
There was a ghost, picking up a shovel and throwing out dirt. Why was this ghost doing this? Is it gonna bury someone? Suddenly, a child wearing a white dress shirt and jungle green shorts with brown boots ran by. He was holding a bunny doll and smiling as if he was going off an adventure. That bunny doll, looked like my old one. That's when I noticed my clothing, it was that child's only difference is that I was wearing a brown vest and a gray newspaper boy hat. That child also had brown spiked locks of hair bouncing as he ran.
Ahh, that can only mean. That child, was the old young me. I jumped off the swing and watched little Tsuna run into an open door and the door closed on its own. I can see the small me go off on an adventure in a twisted world. Just like little Alice in Wonderland. He dropped his bunny and ran through a world of new faces and memories. Encountered new and painful experiences. But he only one goal, to get to the grand castle.
Looking back at the industrious ghost making a hole, a perfect size for anyone. I took a curious peek inside, there was my old favorite toys of when I was a child. One of the things inside were the flower rings that I made with everyone I loved. A small smile crept up and then faded away as I looked away to focus on my young self. He entered the sparkly soft golden castle that was filled with mirrors of lies and truth. The sun setting slowly. He looked into a mirror and saw his smiling face. The people he saw through his adventure was in a mirror, showing soft innocent smiles. A new face of a prince came, but it wasn't anyone I've seen before. Then the moon came, all faces in the mirror showed their true self. Devilish demons smiled, deceiving the young me no more however they frightened him.
He looked back into the mirror which was himself no more. It was me, all grown up and mature. He held back the tears and ran away from the palace. The prince became a smiling devil holding a single scythe ready to kill the old me. I sat near the hole and stared inside, however from the corner of my eye, I could see the young me run as he cries. The plants near the door he entered from were possessed, and grabbed hold of him. He kicked them off and took his bunny doll and ran back to the ghost and me. He ran, tears scorching his eyes. He fell into the hole, dropping the bunny doll.
I stood up and picked up the toy. It's soft cotton texture, the dirty white color ruined the plain pattern. I stared at it and closed my eyes to throw it along in the hole. I walked away from that place as the ghost buried them all. The ghost smirked and said.
" So you've stopped living in a fairytale... Stopped leaving your feet on the ground and abandoning your head in the clouds... Finally stopped living in a world of magic, since you've realized your life became oh so tragic... That's why, I pick up a shovel and dug a hole for your old self... As I continue to bury the castle, I buried the castle... But don't ever forget your past, nor your old self..."
"... I won't... Never again." I replied, still walking away. I smiled a hopeful little smile and let the tears release from my eyes... Yes, this is what I've been hoping for. A new life.
I finally truly woke up from such a dream and noticed I was in Gio-nii's room. I stared at a note he had left me atop the drawer. It nicely read, " Tsuna, I went out with Cozart to buy your present. I'll meet you in front of the station later. -Love you, Ieyasu"
" Well, time to get ready!" I smiled brightly.
Giotto's POV
Cozart and I went to a jewelry store to buy Tsuna's present. Two beautiful diamond couple rings. Sure it was expensive, but if it meant that Tsuna's mine I'm his, then it's just fine.
" Wow Giotto. That was expensive. I'm sure Tsuna'll love it." Cozart smiled.
" Yeah, I'm sure he will... Hey Cozart."
" Mm?"
" Do, you still love me?" I suddenly asked. Bulged crimson eyes stared at me in confusion.
" ... Of course I love you. But, I know that I'll never be with you. You have Tsuna. But no matter what, I'll always love you. Just being here being best friends with you, is all fine." he smiled.
" I-I see..." I replied.
We walked into a crowd and pushed ourselves through to cross the street. The fleeting snow purified the city and made it sparkle. I was pushed by some guy and the present for Tsuna dropped out of my hands and landed on the street.
" Ah." I said, bending over to pick it up.
Obliviously, the lights on the other side turned green. I smiled as I got the present but it quickly disappeared as a truck came my way.
" Ieyasu!" Cozart cried out, running towards me.
Letting go of the present, crimson liquid splattered on the sheet of snow.
Normal POV
" Mou~, Gio-nii is late. Hehe, I wonder where is he now." Tsuna smiled as he said that. He was waiting patiently for his lover to come quickly.
Little did he know, in the far distance. The wails of an ambulance filled the silence.
