Chapter 2
"I will personally take care of the herbivore until his eyesight returns, baby."
~End of recap~
Tsuna started to move in to live with Hibari in Hibari's apartment. Hibari had been annoyed initially when it was suggested because it would mean an intrusion into his privacy. However, five minutes at Tsuna's house convinced Hibari that bringing the brunette to his place was a much better idea than living with so much crowding at Tsuna's place.
They had taken Hibari's motor bike and Reborn had agreed to send Tsuna's things over. Tsuna screamed and clung onto Hibari for dear life the entire time as a pillion rider.
"Never again," Tsuna swore to himself. Not knowing what to expect, Tsuna tripped over the steps leading to Hibari's apartment. Hibari turned back just in time to see Tsuna fall.
Annoyed at the brunette's additional clumsiness compared to the usual, he decided that carrying Tsuna would be a much faster and more efficient way of getting to his apartment.
Tsuna squeaked when he felt himself being lifted from his waist and legs. His hands met a strong chest and his feet dangled in the air. His face erupted with hues of red at the realisation that Hibari was actually carrying him bridal style. He wanted to protest but before he could utter a single word, Tsuna was mercilessly dropped onto the floor with a loud thud as Hibari searched his pockets for keys to unlock the door.
Tsuna whimpered as he was dragged into the apartment stumbling over anything and everything. He sat on the floor and felt Hibari move around him. Still seated on the floor of Hibari's apartment, Tsuna was more than startled when Hibari removed Tsuna's shoes for him.
"Hi-Hibari-san!" Tsuna stuttered when he felt the older male toss him over a shoulder. Before another protest could slip from his mouth Hibari himself stopped abruptly and Tsuna nearly fell off those strong shoulders when the raven haired man's grip on the younger boy slacked a little. The silence had been ominous.
"Hibari-san?" Tsuna squeaked. Immediately he was thrown to a soft surface and bounced on it a little before he heard a door slam shut followed by deafening silence.
Tsuna sat on whatever Hibari threw him on and waited patiently for whatever was going to come next. He swore more than a minute had passed but still there were no signs of movement and Tsuna began to get more nervous.
Another minute passed and still nothing. Tsuna was beginning to get desperate and his sanity was on the edge. Forgetting his initial fear of Hibari, he called out timidly "Is anyone home? Hibari-san?"
Still there was no answer. In panic, Tsuna tried to move around and fell face flat on the floor as he tripped over something. Being blind and alone in a foreign environment was extremely unnerving. Tsuna's fear was getting better of him and he started to cry a little when his hand brushed something squishy. He whimpered pathetically but continued to fumble around in his jumbled state of mind. He failed to pick up the soft click of the front door opening.
When a warm hand touched his shoulder, Tsuna screamed and jumped out of his skin. He started struggling in the person's hold and crying his lungs out. He only stopped thrashing wildly when a pair of strong arms wrapped firmly around him. A soft and baritone voice whispered comforting words in his ear calming down his hyper sensitive nerves.
Only when Tsuna was calm and thinking rationally did Hibari make his presence known. "What were you doing while I was not around herbivore?"
Tsuna visibly stiffened at the mention of the word "herbivore". Hibari watched Tsuna's reaction carefully and was more than taken aback when Tsuna started to cry once more. Not knowing what to do he threatened the boy which resulted to more tears and incoherent mumblings.
Almost at his wits end, Hibari sighed heavily and started to panic when Hibird flew in from the window. The small bird took a look at Tsuna and then at Hibari and back to Tsuna before cocking his head to a side.
"Herbivore sad?" the yellow fluff ball asked ibis owner who only sighed and replied yes.
Hibird seemed to understand and started flying around the house chirping "Hibari cheer! Hibari cheer!" at this Hibari seemed flustered and sent a death glare to Hibird. Fortunately or unfortunately, Tsuna did not seem to hear any of it and kept bawling his eyes out.
Hibird shocked the older male by saying "Hug! Hug!" Hibari wanted to get his tonfas out to break something when Hibird suggested it. However, the yellow bird seemed unfazed. In fact he seemed even more determined.
Cobalt grey eyes met beady black eyes. Finally the raven haired teen gave in with a sigh. Moving to the now hysterical brunette he wrapped his arms tightly around him which ceased the crying almost instantly save for a few muffled sobs.
Tsuna froze for a moment while a faint blush assorted the usually stoic boy's face.
Somewhere outside, a certain baseball player and silverette blushed heavily at their intimate gesture. "Reborn-san was right..." the bomber whispered and the baseball player nodded beside. They left their hiding spot as quietly as they arrived.
Back at the apartment where Hibari still held Tsuna, Tsuna's heart made a weird sound.
Doki-doki!
Hibari's heart made a similar sound as he held the smaller boy.
Doki-doki!
The two blushed in unison unknown to each other. Watchful eyes sparkled from a distance unknown to them.
"Kufufu~ this might get interesting, arcobaleno."
"Indeed," a fedora wearing infant smirked.
