Here is the next chapter. I apologise for the tardiness. Please review! I like to read them.

Chapter 9

Tsuna got home shortly after dawn; which nearly drove Hibari insane from worrying and frustration. As soon as the chocolate haired teen entered the front door, Kyoya nearly jumped upon him and checked his lover from top to bottom. He wanted to see if Tsuna had been hurt; he kept asking why had Tsuna taken so long to come home and why hadn't anyone accompanied him back home.

After the inspection showed nothing out of the usual, Hibari kissed his lover passionately. The fiery kiss turned Tsuna's legs into goo and made him moan deeply; Hibari's hands running all over his body were enough for the young man to almost lose his mind.

-Kyoya… Please… I… muttered Tsuna with difficulties.

Hibari stopped his administrations and led his lover to the living room; once on the couch, he demanded to know why had Tsuna walked home all alone and why had he came after the sun had set.

-Reborn and Chrome are currently interrogating Haruno and we already have found out one of the Marcuzio famiglia. Yamamoto and Gokudera have brought me back home! Don't worry! We now know what happened with the bullet she used against you! She had reduced the powder in the bullet because she thought that she could get you manipulated with her own sexual skills instead of the addictive agent in the bullet. All she thought she needed was to get you horny! What a tweet! Said Tsuna with a large smile to ease his boyfriend's worries.

Kyoya took his lover in his arms and held him close to his heart. He was relieved knowing that they had so much already on the Marcuzio famiglia; even if it was just a name and a contact, it was still better than nothing. Tsuna giggled and kissed his lover eagerly as he ran his arms around Kyoya's neck.

Tsuna enjoyed how his lover would sigh in pleasure each time they came to kiss one another; he enjoyed watching his lover's eyes filled with tenderness every time the young man would snuggle up into his arms. Tsuna enjoyed how Hibari's jaw would stiffen and how his eyes would flare up with jealousy and anger every time Tsuna would mentions Rokudo Mukuro; it was always followed by a passionate kiss. Sometimes Tsuna would mention Rokudo just to piss his lover off and have one of his mind-blowing kisses, afterwards. Tsuna enjoyed every single action and reactions his lover would have; Hibari Kyoya was perfectly handsome in everything.

-I have to confess something, Kyoya… It's something embarrassing and I…

-Just tell me, love! It's alright… whispered Hibari as he held his lover closer to him.

-I… I really care for you..! I, sometimes, feel like I don't deserve you… I mean, you are smart, handsome, powerful and popular; but I'm just me. I'm not smart, just look at my grades; I'm not handsome or powerful, and definitely not popular! I… I'm just Dame-Tsuna… I sometimes fear that you will one day find someone better than me… said Tsuna with a tremor in his voice.

Hibari kissed his lover's head; this confession broke his heart. How could Tsuna see himself as No-Good-Tsuna? Could he not see how beautiful he was? Could he not see how powerful he was with his determination and loyalty? Could he not see how people always looked up to him and were willing to fight alongside him, despite the odds being against him? Tsuna was perfect and could have the world to his feet if he wanted to with a bit confidence. However, Hibari could not, in all honesty, say he did not know how Tsuna felt. He, too, felt afraid to lose his lover. He also was afraid that his lover would find someone better!

-Tsuna, I feel the same way as you! Sometimes at night, when I wake up next to you, I fear losing you and I feel like locking you up for my own pleasure. These fears keep me awake at night for hour on end and I almost shake in fear. Whispered Hibari in Tsuna's ear to appease his sorrow and doubts.

-Kyoya… I won't find someone better than you… How could I? When the only thought of you almost makes me go in hyper-mode! You drive me to be stronger and a better leader for my friends… I love you!

Words soon became useless as Hiabri hungrily and lovingly kissed his lover. All the declarations and confessions were revealed into this kiss; therefor words were no longer a necessity.

Tsuna broke away from the kiss; he got up and led his lover to the bedroom by the hand. His eyes promised nothing but sweet moments of love and tenderness; his movement promised moments of liberty and lightness; his smile promised kisses and «I love you»s… The night was young and the lovers had the intention of taking full advantage of it!

At Yamamoto's father's shop…

Gokudera was sitting on the couch with his lover's head on his lap; his hand playing with his lover's ebony locks. Yamamoto smiled with content as he felt at peace at this moment; everything was where it should be. Gokudera was with him by his side; they were living together; Hibari and Tsuna were happily together and safe; Sempai was enjoying his time with Hannah… Yes, everything was perfect in their life at this very moment.

If only the Marcuzio famiglia wasn't running around trying to get their hands on the Vongola famiglia by harming Tsuna; then maybe Gokudera could ease up a bit and not torture himself with doubts and worries about their friend.

-Tell me, Takashi, do you think Hibari is the right one for Juudaime? I mean, he's mean; he often hit him and treated him like crap! What if he hurts him? What if he is just playing with Juudaime? He was so depressed after Kyoko's coming out! I thought we were going to lose him for good! said Gokudera with a worried face.

-Hibari changed, Haya-chan! Have you seen him act badly towards Tsuna, lately? Do you actually think that Reborn-san would let Hibari hurt Tsuna and go unpunished? Beside, I've seen how Hibari has been looking at Tsuna lately. He's been drooling all over the place when Tsuna walks by; he's been kicking every single guy's ass that had the audacity of looking at him; he's crazy about him. Said Yamamoto with a calm voice and smile.

Gokudera looked down to his lover and had to admit Yamamoto made very good points; and yet… Doubts still plagued his mind. He cared deeply for his friend and was terrified of losing his friend if Tsuna had his heart broken again. Tsuna's light and smile almost disappeared after Kyoko's coming out; personally, Gokudera was the last person to care about such things, however, Tsuna was in love with Ryohei's sister and the announcement had crushed him. Gokudera still remembered the empty, puffy and red eyes his boss had every days; the sad and defeated smiles that adorned his lips every time one asked him if he was alright… The silverheaded bomber couldn't let his friend go back to this state and by the way things were going; Gokudera was pretty sure, things were serious between the two.

-I guess you are right… I need something to take my mind off all of this! Sighed Gokudera as he tiredly rubbed his eyes.

Yamamoto rose up from his position and made his lover turn his back on him. From behind, he slowly undid Gokudera's blouse button; and once, the blouse was off, Yamamoto started to firmly rub his lover's shoulders all the while planted soft kisses upon the delicious pale skin before him. Gokudera sighed in pleasure from his lover's calloused hands (from all of his baseball and sword trainings) and shivered from the feather-like kisses on his shoulders.

The swordsman pushed his lover face down into the couch and ran his hands all over the bomber's back; pulling moans and sighs of pleasure from his lover. Soon, the hands got lower and lower and lower… Until it reached the hem of Gokudera's jeans. Slowly but surely, Yamamoto pulled down the pants and underwear to reveal a beautiful ass that made the swordsman drool like a dog before a bone. His hands molded and firmly rubbed the cheeks with obvious perverted pleasure.

-I know a good way to take your mind off all of this and feel good… whispered Yamamoto with a gentle smile.

Sasagawa's household…

-Hannah! Kyoko! Haru! Diner is ready to the extreme! Yelled Ryohei with a large smile as he placed the plates upon the table.

The three young women arrived quickly and thanked the boxer with large smiles. The two couples sat down and began to eat quietly and peacefully; until Kyoko wanted to know what was going on with Hibari Kyoya lately. This had taken her brother short; as he knew what was going on and he knew how the girls would react if they knew about Hibari and Tsuna's relationship.

-He… hum… stuttered Ryohei, uncomfortable to say the least.

-He beats up people far more regularly and more viciously! However, these guys aren't doing anything wrong; while the ones breaking the rules are almost ignored by him. Said Hannah with a hint of suspicion.

-I know! I saw him stare a Tsuna-kun with a strange look in his eyes; I hope he doesn't have plans to beat him up. This is unacceptable! Hurting such a good person as Tsuna is terrible and if Hibari does hurt Tsuna-kun; I will make sure he will pay for it! Said Kyoko, ferociously.

-Don't worry about that! I'm sure your brother will make Hibari pay for his actions if he did hurt Tsuna-kun! Right, Ryohei-nii? Said Haru with a big smile as she turned towards the pale boxer.

-Onii-chan? Are you alright? You are so pale… said Kyoko, concerned.

The sun guardian was pale as the moon; his hands were shaking; he was sweating like a pig from the nervousness. He had promised Tsuna not to go around and tell everyone about his relationship with Hibari; knowing full well how people at school would react to this. The boys would refuse to speak with him out of fear and the girls would either be extremely jealous or squeal in a higher pitch than a dolphin; which would anger Gokudera and the bomber would endanger everyone at school. Even if he wasn't a bright light, Ryohei knew how it would end up if the news were to travel throughout the school.

-Girls, I have a secret, but you must promise me not to repeat it to anyone… Hibari is currently in a relationship with… Lingered Ryohei, not sure if he should continue; however, the looks on the girl's faces made him reconsidered. Hibari has been strange in the past week because he's dating Tsuna and he's a bit jealous…

Complete silence filled the room; the girls were stunned, the boxer was nervous. Before Ryohei could say something else, the girls squealed in delight and started talking about how cute they were together and how sweet it was to see Hibari getting all jealous and how well they were together…

Ryohei sighed in defeat; he was going to receive so much crap from Hibari for this. He hated crowds and the girls would not rest until they had a couple's date. He was definitely going to get a boat load of crap for this…

At the Kokuyo gang's hideout…

-So, you're telling me, you hurt your hand when it got stuck in a door… asked Chikusa, very suspicious.

-Oh… yes… I was with the Sawada-san and he offered me something, but I forgot to take my hand out of the way of the fridge's door. It was an accident. Lied Chrome, having been told by Reborn that it was for the best.

Neither Ken or Chikusa believed her; however, they could not care less. Their boss and cherished friend had taken over Chrome's body earlier and told them not to be worried; everything was fine and that he was very pleased to see them together (more like it was about time). Therefore, they let it go (not to get confused with the song); they enjoyed spending time in each other's arms much better.

Obviously, they knew about the Marcuzio problem and they knew about the bullet that had shot them; luckily, they already had feelings for one another and were already an item. The bullet simply outted them sooner than they had expected.

Ken led Chikuza to their common room and let the indigo haired young girl behind; Chrome watched her friends go with a smile as she was truly happy for the both of them.

Italy, Venice, Reborn's room…

Reborn lay in bed next to his dare-devil lover; enjoying the lovely rhythm of his lover's breathing. He looked at his lover; at his pale skin; at his beautiful purple lips; at his gorgeous silhouette and at his soft sleeping features. Skull had the softest of hair; the creamiest of skin; the most beautiful laughter and sexiest of moans.

Reborn took his hat and placed it on his head with a lit cigarette; he knew that Skull only blushed and stuttered in the most adorable manner when he saw him this way. It got Reborn harder than anything else; and Skull knew they would be in for a good time.

A pang of hurt ran through Reborn's heart at the idea of Skull being victim to the Marcuzio famiglia schemes; he couldn't even imagine it happening. If Skull started to be obsessed by someone else than him, Reborn didn't know if he could hold himself from killing the bastard who would steal his lover. This whole situation made him uncomfortable!

The hitman sat up in the bed and looked out the window; his thoughts lost in the relationship between his student and his cloud guardian. They were opposite; Tsuna was shy and kind, but Hibari was confident and dangerous. Tsuna was sociable and loved laughing; Hibari hated crowds and enjoyed the silence. They were an odd couple, just like Skull and him. Skull was hyper and sometimes clumsy; he was calmer and always mastered his actions. Skull was the piercing and tattoo type; while he was the suit and martini type. Yet, they completed each other perfectly; and Reborn wouldn't have it any other way…

Japan, Namimori, Marcuzio famiglia Nippon's headquarters…

Two young women and five men sat at a large oak wood table; hot tea cup and pieces of cake were placed before each of them. The group was furious at the failures they have been encountering with the Vongolas; Haruno had failed and now she was nowhere to be found.

The sun guardian ran out of the shooting range; the Kokuyo's gang escaped the bullets effect; the rain and storm guardians were already in love with each other; and now, the cloud guardian was closer than ever to their boss. The allies of the Decimo living in his house were nowhere to be found; the known allies were under strict supervision. The entire family was under supervision of the highest protection of the Vongola… The tenth generation of the Vongola was nearly untouchable and the Marcuzio famiglia had to hit directly to get to them; however, that would dangerous to them. It would cost them too much in men power and damages for them…

-Damn it! What are we going to do? If we don't get the Vongola famiglia, we will never get the control of the Mafia underworld! That useless bitch Haruno just had to reduce the powder in the bullet! Cried one of the women as she slammed her fist against table.

-Now, now, ! Calm down, Natalya! We still have an ace up our sleeve… said Eugene Therbutthon, a young English man with thick eyeglasses and a very pointy set of teeth.

-Really, and what would that be? Asked the young woman with short, pink hair with golden eyes and a hidden set of knives in her jacket.

-Sawada Tsunayoshi. Answered Ulrich Von Strain as he entered the room. His reaction to Haruno's actions towards Hibari showed that he is capable of violence when motivated; he had her kidnapped and had his mist guardian slap her until she confessed. Not exactly how I would have done it; but, atleast he is showing that he is capable of acting like a boss. So, we will use Sawada's love for Hibari against him and to our advantage. We will not attack him; if so the entire mafia world will be after us. Instead…

-We kidnap his lover and eat him bits by bits? Asked Eugene with drool coming down the side of his mouth.

-Almost. We will take Hibari; use him and then, you may eat him to your heart's content. Does that sound right to you? Asked the German hitman to the young man who smiled like a little boy in a candy shop.

-Yeeeeaaahhh! Squealed the English young man.

The group smiled and listened to their sky leader's plan; it wasn't very hard to execute and it sounded quite amusing to do. All they needed to do was to get their hands on a certain cloud guardian and his beloved would fall right into their trap…
