A/N: Here's chapter two. I wonder if i should go in order or just the usual drabbles. Thank's for all the Reviews, Fav's, and Follows. I didn't think this story would get so well liked. Reborn raising Tsuna will not be easy. I hope you enjoy this chapter.

" Regular speech"

"Phone speech"

It's been only one month since Tsuna came to live with him and Reborn had to admit that it was hard. Tsuna was a good kid but sometimes he was extremely stubborn. Like right now.

"I HATE STUPID MATH AND STUPID WRITING." Tsuna screamed as he threw his work books on the floor.

"Tsuna, pick them up." Reborn said quietly and dangerously.

"NO." He shouted and crossed his arms as he glared at Reborn challengingly.

Reborn scowled and pinched the bridge of his nose. "I won't listen to you unless you speak in Italian."

Tears of frustration gathered in Tsuna's eyes. "I don't know those words in Italian."

Reborn smirked. "Then I guess you have nothing important to say."

Tsuna screamed in anger and ran out the living room. "I HATE YOU." He shouted.

Reborn held his smirk until he couldn't see Tsuna anymore then he sat down and covered his face. He screamed out his own frustrations in his hands. He felt like he just said something he shouldn't have said.

"What did I do wrong?" He groaned. He sat in that position for almost an hour before going to see Tsuna.

Reborn walked up to Tsuna's room and opened the door. "Tsuna?"

There was no reply.

Reborn went closer to the bed and saw that it was made up already. He checked the closet. The bathroom, his own room and closet.

He was getting desperate now.

He checked the locked guest room, the kitchen the cupboards.

"TSUNA."

He checked under furniture, he checked the basement, he even checked the roof.

It was only a month and his nephew had run away. He was panicking by the time he picked up the phone to call Fon to help him look.

Fon picked up on the second ring. "Hello Rebo-"

"Tsuna ran away."

" Listen Re-"

"Fon I can't find him! What if he's lost? Or hungry? Or scared? He's upset with me and I didn't even get to ask him why." Reborn refused to cry. His hands were shaking again like the day he first went to get Tsuna.

"Calm down Reborn."

"I can't calm down. Don't tell me to calm down. We need to call the others."

"No we don't ne-"

Reborn let out a small sob which he covered with his hands."What if someone took him. I promised my sister I would keep him safe."

Fon sighed. "He's with me so you can calm down.'

"Oh." Reborn's hands stopped shaking but instead of relief, he felt anger consume him.

"He's in my kitchen drinking tea. Now Reborn I want you to talk to him. Take gentle steps. It-"

Reborn hung up without even bothering to hear the rest of what Fon had to say. He was furious. His hands were now shaking in anger instead of the fear a few minutes ago.

Reborn grabbed his keys and stormed off to Fon's house planning on yelling, scolding, disciplining Tsuna for making him so worried.

For making Reborn think he actually did something wrong.

He'll up the draining. Double the studying. Make sure Tsuna didn't have time to think of running away again.

Reborn got to Fon's apartment and opened the door which he knew Fon would have left open.

His anger drained away when he actually saw his nephew. He didn't even notice Fon slip past him to give them some privacy. Tsuna's entire face was red with fresh tears rolling down his cheeks, Reborn focused on his eyes which were red and dull. Those eyes that normally was filled with happiness, love, acceptance. was now dull and filled with sadness. Reborn couldn't remember when he last saw that spark of happiness in his nephew's eyes.

"Talk to me." Reborn asked softly as he sat across from Tsuna. His nephew had to sit on some pillows to reach the table. He was so… small.

"You haven't spent any time with me." Tsuna mumbled but Reborn heard him clearly.

"What do you mean? I've been with you everyday when I don't have missions."

"Not training or studying. I mean playing, like when we were at mama's house."

Reborn thought back to what they have been doing that month. Study, Train, Eat, sleep. Study, Train, Eat, Sleep. That's what Reborn remembered happening in the last two week. When was the last time he played with his nephew? When was the last time they did something other than study or train? When was the last time he actually treated Tsuna like the kid he was?

Reborn couldn't remember doing any of that after the first week they got there.

He finally understood. Reborn was at fault.

"Tsuna, how about we go to the park for a bit then get some ice cream." He remembered those words Fon said over the phone; Take gentle steps. Reborn had a lot of time to train his nephew so he would take it easy. Play with him. Let him be the kid he is. Take gentle steps and let Tsuna learn at a pace that is easy for him.

There it was, that bright spark of happiness accompanied by an adorable smile that Reborn loved to see. It just brightened the room and made Reborn feel like he did something right.

Tsuna hopped out his seat and held out his hand. "Let's go Reborn-oji."

He was so glad his nephew was so forgiving because he would need that trait in his future.

*****.*** Line Break ***.*****

Later that night Reborn felt something crawl in the bed with him and he let out a sigh. It was too big to be Leon so it must be Tsuna. Reborn moved over and allowed his nephew to slip in next to him.

"I don't hate you Rebo'- Oji." Tsuna whispered.

He gently kissed Tsuna's forehead. "I know. Goodnight mio bambino."

He wrapped his arms protectively around his nephew and listened and Tsuna's breath grew deeper as he fell further into his dreams.

Reborn had to admit that they were both stubborn but they were learning how to deal with each other. Reborn knew that it would get worse before it could get better. He was going to make a lot of mistakes before he learned how to properly care for his nephew. But, he would make sure his nephew grew up to be the best he could be.
