Chapter 5: A peaceful weekend

Tsuna was indulging himself in a super rare weekend off, free from nightmarish stacks of paperwork, his psychos of Guardians and hordes of stalkerish not-right-in-the-brain suitors, all thanks to Reborn, the Greatest Assho…he meant, the Greatest Hitman. Fishy as the generous offer might smell, the young Vongola Boss wasted no time to accept the offer and hurriedly finished the horrendous rest of paperwork- his hands were totally after having signed so much paper. However, at least, he managed to secure himself two days off with no paperwork to sign, no suitors to run away from, no Guardians to beat some sense into their thick heads, and, greatest of all, no fucking annoying sadistic Reborn.

That was why he was now in the humble cozy household of the Nagisas, enjoying his cup of jasmine tea and the host's marvelous apple pie. The couple had asked him to come over to their house for quite some time, but he hadn't got round to visiting them. Therefore he decided to spend this once-in-a-lifetime offer to be free on visiting the Nagisa, whose house was conveniently far away from the Vongola Mansion and off his stalkers' radar.

Tsuna inhaled the sweet aroma of the tea and pie through his nose and lat out a contented sigh. Ahhh, this was what he called heaven!

"Is the tea to your liking, Tsuna-san? Would you like some milk or dream to go with it?", Shinji put the tray of cookie- oh, it looked so delicious, he was so gonna ask for some when he went home- and asked the Vongola Boss kindly.

"Oh it's all right. I like it bland better", Tsuna waved it off and felt the tea aroma tempting him to take another sip.

Shinji nodded smilingly and turned to tend to his new-born son. The boy was born two months ago but he has already fully transformed into his human shape-an amazing feat considering that it usually took werebabies up to a year to completely assume their human form. Those that achieved that feat were said to grow up to be strong and powerful not just at physique but also pheromone level. Tsuna, an extremely rare case that was able to be born with full human physical features, was a perfect testimony to that statement.

"What do you name him?", Tsuna asked.

"Yoshinobu, Yoshinobu Nagisa. Kaworu named it. He said the name was inspired by yours, Tsuna-san. After all, if it were not for you, we wouldn't be able to be together right now", Shinji answered fondly, his baby son giggling as if agreeing with his mother's words.

Tsuna felt his cheeks heating up on hearing that, which earned him a chuckle from the other.

"Don't say that", the brunette averted his eyes in embarrassment, "It was all because of your love for each other that helped you triumph through the hardship. I was just providing some help to make the process happen faster…"

As Tsuna droned on and on about how he didn't help much, he failed to notice someone entering the kitchen and sneaking behind him.

"Don't forget Kaworu took off immediately when …"

"Hello, Tsuna-san."

"HIEEEEEE"

Tsuna quickly turned around, ready to fight back, and find, to his relief and annoyance, that the person behind him was none other than Kaworu Nagisa, the patriarch of the Nagisa family. The silver-haired guy laughed teasingly as Tsuna playfully returned the favor by hitting him lightly on the shoulder.

"Don't scare me like that. What would happen if my self-defense instinct kicked in automatically before I realized it was you?", the brunette scolded, the feeling of shock lingering on his mind.

"Sorry sorry, I just couldn't help myself. Anyway, I'm glad that you finally came to visit us. So have you met the latest addition to our family?". Kaworu said and approached his mate, who was gently cradling their son to sleep.

Ignoring there was another person in the room, the silver-haired man bent down and planted a loving kiss on the other's lips which eventually escalated into a full-blown making-out session, full of smooch and tongue. The shameless couple continued to ignore the increasingly uncomfortable brunette, who tried his best to avert his eyes from the scene and block the obscene sounds from his ears to no avail. Fortunately for the baby, his mother had covered his eyes. Damn lucky baby!

"You two! Stop it! I'm still here, you know!", unable to stand the uncomfortably erotic atmosphere, the young Vongola Boss yelled, effectively preventing the couple from going further.

Kaworu pulled away from the kiss, looking every bit smugly satisfied while Shinji had the decency to look embarrassed.

Despite his initial discomfort with the couple, the brunette still felt happy for the small family. They truly deserved to be happy together after all they had been through.

Kaworu Nagisa and Shinji Ikari were what you could call a couple made in heaven. They were always lovie dovie, spouting embarrassing cheesy lines, so mushy that Tsuna thought he was gonna get both diarrhea and diabetes anytime soon. From what Shinji told him, they first met when they were 10 years old and instantly took a liking to each other. Since then, they had been inseparable, going to the same school, taking the same piano class and spending almost their entire life together. It wasn't a surprise that at age 15, Kaworu confessed his feeling to Shinji, which was returned by the boy, and those two had dated since then.

However, problems arose when their families found out their romantic affair and desire to mate each other. Shinji was an Omega of the Japanese Wolf- a species on verge of extinction while Kaworu was a proud Alpha of the Pegasus- the mythological winged horse race whose population was roughly 100. Neither side wanted to yield their children to the other; they didn't want a marriage that resulted in children not of their race.

The next part was pretty much like Romeo and Juliet, minus the straight love and suicidal death, but there was still plenty of gory actions with Kaworu penetrating the security made of Gorillas (well, he grew wings and flew over them, but details were details) and ramming himself to the Shinji' room's door, only to get zapped by electric fence… multiple times before Tsuna found and turned off the switch (apparently, when hormone and adrenaline got to their brains, most Alpha's intelligence dropped to that of a rock).

The reunion was touching…almost if it weren't for the fact that Tsuna was treated to a full-blown making-out session with lots of moaning, groping, shirt-ripping. Tsuna intervened before it got too hot.

After that, the lovely couple eloped to Italy (with Tsuna's help) and built their love nest there.

Looking at the loving duo, Tsuna couldn't help but feel envious of the mutual love and the bond they shared.

In the world of Werepeople, there was an enduring legend about an everlasting bond that bound the fate and hearts of the mated couple with each other, like the fable red string or soulmates story of the Primate counterpart. According to the legend, two people were destined for each other since birth; against the others' expectation and any hurdles, their hearts would always be for their other half and fate would lead them back to each other eventually.

Along with the society development and the dwindling numbers of Were population, the legend of soul bond was gradually replaced by the notions of survival of their race and free love, and thus, promiscuousness, arranged marriage and seed trade became widely accepted as long as the Were population was ensured.

However, it didn't mean that the legend had been completely forgotten and no longer held any true value to it. In front of Tsuna was the most obvious testament to that legend.

"By the way, when are you planning to settle down, Tsuna-san?", Kawora inquired, "If you need any help, I'll gladly provide you with my assistance in your journey to the great love of your life. Who knows, maybe my little cub and yours will become best buddy?"

"Excuse me for being nosy, Tsuna-san, but I kinda found your single status strange. It's not rare for an omega nowadays to have multiple weres pursuing them for their hand in mating, so omega is likely to find their mate fast. For you to stay single til this age, are you by any chance …ehm…asexual?"

"No way. I want to find my soulmate, too", Tsuna quickly replied, his gaze becoming distant, "I wanna be like you guys, being all lovie dovie and mushy, going on dates, building a happy family, having kids and spending the rest of my life with the one I love. It's just…well…"

"Well?", Shinji urged Tsuna to continue.

"There is one little tiny problem."

"And it is…"

"It's…"

BOOM !

A loud explosion reverberated behind Tsuna and successfully interrupted his answer. Both Shinji and Kaworu shuddered at their seats and their newborn son, who was drifting between slumber and wakefulness, opened his eyes and started crying. Smoke slowly permeated from the door connecting the living room and the kitchen and sounds of clashing weapons could be heard. The brunette could only facepalm at his predicament.

"Actually, it is a big problem", the Vongola Boss rectified his previous statement and smiled brightly, "I'm gonna go outside and see what's happening. And it's advisable for you two not to leave this room. Oh, anything happens to the front part of your house, don't worry, the Vongola company will take full responsibility for it. Now, if you excuse me, I need to go and beat some sense into a few nutcases."

And he went out, leaving behind a dumbfounded couple who both felt it was wise to comply to the others' words.

The Nagisa family spent the next ten minutes listening to the concerto that was called "The scream", directed by the Great Maestro Tsuna, and pondering just how many people out there were chasing after the brunette's "delicious ass"- kindly quoted from the "Kufufufu" guy.

If only they knew the answer.

-o0o-

"All I want is a peaceful weekend and when I said a peaceful weekend, I mean no paperwork, no responsibilities, no Vongola, no suitors and most of all, NO STALKERS."

"But Tenth, I'm worried for you. What if…?"

"I am not a ten-year-old kid, Gokudera. I know more than enough to protect myself."

"Yeah right."

"Don't give me that "Yeah right" Reborn."

"Kufufufufu, don't cringe so much, my dear Tsunayoshi or you will soon have wrinkles on your delicious ass."

" Whether I cringe or not has nothing to do with my ass, Mukuro."

"Cringing is for herbivores. Don't make me bite you to death, omnibivore."

"Maa maa, I have an idea, Tsuna. How about you and I go to a baseball match? It will surely relieve your stress."

"What, how dare you flirt with Tenth in front of me, you baseball freak? Don't listen to him, Tenth. Let's go to this UMA convention."

"Join to my boxing club to the extreme, Sawada."

And a brawl quickly descended into the group of misfits and they were inside a car.

"ENOUGH."

On Tsuna's one word, the group ceased whatever they were doing, tonfa, trident, dynamites, swords, guns, swords, fists, legs,… wait, was that a tuna, hanging in midair. All eyes were directed at their boss, whose facial expression was hidden behind his bang, a pissed-off layer of flame slowly swirling around him, set off the alarm of everyone present.

Nevertheless, quickly as it came, the ominous aura dispersed, a bright-maybe too bright- smile blooming on Tsuna's face, which brought another shudder to his Guardians and his mentor. They were all aware of that smile too well, but they just never learned the lesson.

"Do you want to know something, everyone? After I stopped you from further destroying the Nagisa's house-not that there is much left, I called Joseph-san to bring my custom-ordered car here. I've never thought I would have to use it this quick, but well, knowing you guys, it should come as no surprise. So here's the story, because you guys were all so nice to take time and come to this middle-of-nowhere place to retrieve me, I'm gonna return the favor be driving you home."

At this point, everyone inside the car, except Tsuna, had their faces pale drastically.

"This car can run at the speed of a roller-coaster descending a slope, have bullet-proof windows, run on flame and do you know what the best part is? It is completely sword-proof, dynamite-proof, tonfa-proof, illusion-proof, gun-proof, boxing-proof, in other words, Vongola-Guardians-and-Reborn-proof?"

After that, Tsuna pressed a button and a wall of glass was erected between the driver seat and the passenger's.

"Oh, and you cannot use any flame now because I have just activated the Inside-flame-proof function in your chamber. So could you please tighten your seat belts because I'm gonna start driving very soon", completed with an angelic smile.

Panic soon ensued after Tsuna started the engine.

"No, Tenth, please, don't drive. I beg you. I'll do anything for you. Just don't drive."

"Maa maa, Tsuna, we can talk this over."

"Kufufufufu, just wait, Vongola, after this is over, I'll definitely have your ass on my lap and spank it and…". A tonfa was slammed into his face.

"Shut up perverted pineapple herbivore. And you, omnivore, I'll bite you to death after this."

Reborn also tried his best to get out of the car in his most composed Reborn-ish glory, only to find his effort was futile. Great, just great~! The last thing he wanted was to have his face, or his body, featured on the headline, or his epitaph, "The Greatest Hitman Reborn Killed in a Car Crash"

The Vongola Boss chuckled. "What do French say in this situation? Ah, bon voyage."

And the drive began. With scream and shout fading away with the car into the sunset. What a lovely view!

-o0o-

It was literally a drive to…eh from...whatever hell.

For a long time, Tsuna's horrid bordering catastrophic car driving skill had been renowned within the mafia. It was so bad, so terrible, so out-of-the world- it defied all laws of physics that ever existed- that Reborn technically gave up in trying to fix it because trying to fix it also meant either getting inside the car of doom or standing on the sideline to eventually find yourself running away from it.

How they managed to arrive at the Vongola Mansion in one piece was beyond the Guardians and Reborn.

Months later, they still had nightmares of crossroads, T-sections, bridges, cars dashing on two wheels. At one point during the drive of doom, Tsuna decided to take things to another level of the extreme- the sun Guardians was ganged up by everyone later- by driving the car under a freaking truck. After that, truck was also a frequent visitor in everyone's dream.

The car, unfortunately or fortunately, didn't survive after the ordeal. The wreckage finally found itself in a better hands of one of Tsuna's most obsessed suitors and the only one crazy enough to think Tsuna's driving skill was freak-marshmallow-king awesome.

Weeks later, Tsuna was still pondering whether he should add the truck-proof function to his new car to prevent it from suffering the tragic like many of its predecessor. What he wasn't aware that he only needed one function to keep the car alive, and that was Tsuna-driving-skill-proof.
