A/n: I seriously do think Kyoya is probably different around Tsuna – not only that but he's grown up a bit I'd imagine. On another note – they would be in Italy now for "training" now that Tsuna is almost graduated from High school.

Disclaimer:Yeah still not mine. In case I didn't mention – neither are the prompts.

Prompt: Metaphor

Pairing: 1827

Tsuna sat on the couch in the living room of the Vongola mansion chewing the end of his pencil as he thought – his back was pressed against the arm of the couch and his now long (really he'd shot up once he got a little older (now eighteen)) legs were bunched up in front of him holding up a textbook he was using as a smooth surface.

"What's eating you?" asked a voice – and the brunette tilted his head back to see Kyoya standing over him with a magazine in his hand. "Actually, I think the better question is why are you eating your pencil?"

Tsuna stuck his tongue out at the older boy, "I'm trying to do the homework sensei gave me."

Golden eyes scanned over the paper propped up in front of Tsuna, "Your having trouble with metaphors? How stupid are you Tsuna?"

"That's not nice," Tsuna answered with a pout. "It's hard to keep all of these parts of speech straights – there's to many of them."

"Your eighteen."

"So? Your Nineteen and still can't remember to carry your ID whenever your going to headquarters."

Kyoya let out a pfft sound as he flopped onto the floor by the couch, "That's got nothing to do with it. I just find it stupid to show herbivores my ID when they know perfectly well who I am."

Tsuna didn't answer as he went back to staring up at the ceiling with his pencil in his mouth, "What about...Reborn is like a devil."

"Simile."

"Huh?"

"That's a simile, not a metaphor. You can't use is like."

Tsuna sighed, "Why don't you just give me one Kyoya?"

The cloud guardian smiled lightly, "Because that'd be cheating Tsuna."

"So?"

Kyoya didn't give an answer as he stood up, "It's my turn to pick up Futa, Lambo, and I-pin from school."

"I wanna come!" Tsuna declared – shooting up causing the textbook in his legs to fall to the ground with a thump.

"Do you homework."

As he watched the black haired boy disappear Tsuna frowned and sent a deadly brown glare towards the worksheet on the paper, "Stupid metaphors..."

E/n: My thoughts exactly Tsu-chan...

See you tomorrow guys ^_^ Thanks for all the awesome reviews.
