Sleepwalking

Resting in his bed peacefully late one night, Tsuna slept soundly as he fell into a world of sweet dreams.

At least, until he heard a sound that roused him from his slumber.

It wasn't very loud, but it was enough to be heard, and if you were a light sleeper like Tsuna, you were likely to hear it.

Groggily, Tsuna sat up in bed, rubbing his eyes as he perked his ears to listen for the noise. Silence.

"Uhhghhn...I need to stop being so paranoid." Tsuna groaned, falling back in his bed and closing his eyes in an attempt to try to go back to sleep again.

He heard footsteps coming up the stairs, but of course he figured it was Nana or Bianchi getting home late or something. Paying no mind to it, he tried to go back to sleep. His door then opened, Tsuna squeezed his eyes shut and tried to make it look like he was sleeping.

The footsteps came into the room, approaching his bed. Probably Nana checking if he was asleep.

Tsuna's eyes then shot open when he felt additional weight coming down on him, a soft head of hair snuggling into his chin.

"Eh?!" Tsuna was beyond surprised to discover that it was Mukuro. The Mist Guardian Italian ex-convict himself. What was he doing here?!

Mukuro mumbled in his sleep, snuggling into Tsuna as his expression became content, smiling softly. He looked really peaceful. He was dressed in light blue flannel PJ's, and was barefoot. So much for Tsuna thinking that he slept in his clothes.

"...Mukuro?" Tsuna questioned his Mist Guardian, wondering if he was awake or not.

"Tsunayoshi..." Mukuro replied, snuggling closer. It then occurred to Tsuna that he'd been sleepwalking. How he got here all the way from Kokuyo, he'll never know.

Although Tsuna wanted his Mist Guardian to get off, a part of him just didn't have the heart to do it. He came all the way here in his sleepwalking state, and there was no way he was going to wake him up now, oh no. He wasn't sure of Mukuro's sleeping habits, in case he was the kind that you didn't want to wake up under any circumstances, so he decided to stay on the safe side.

On the other hand, he looked so peaceful for a change, and Tsuna could see that he hadn't hugged someone in a long time...and he needed one.

Smiling softly, Tsuna brought his own arms around the sleeping illusionist, stroking his hair lightly.

"Sleep well, Mukuro." Tsuna murmured before he too fell asleep.

The next morning, Tsuna awoke to see a pair of mismatched eyes gazing down at him in curiosity.

"Tsunayoshi...did you have anything to do with this?"

Let's just say it wasn't just that night that Mukuro sleepwalked over and slept with Tsuna. Why it happened, no one knew.
