KHR-One Shot
'Through The Sky's Viewfinder' – Part 1
"I have had enough!" A loud scream could be heard on the dead night. "I...have had enough..." His pulse started to become calmer. "I...really...have had it...enough already..." Tears started to gleam, dripping wet on his face, down to his chin and dripped. "I...can't...I couldn't..." He kept on. "I'm...so...very...tired...I am tired..." He clenched his fist till it turned to white.
"Tsunayoshi..." There's a hint of hesitation within his voice, but still he kept his face straight, the calm and collected face all the time.
"Kyouya...I'm tired...I really am..."
"..." Hibari remained silent as he looked at how broken his young boss is.
"Do you...even have...any feeling towards me, at all?" Tsuna asked with a hint of sadness, his whole body tremble as he asked the question that had been hidden, locked in the deepest part of his heart. "Was it just sympathy?" He added.
"..." Hibari remained silent. His expression is as calm as it always did which hurt Tsuna more.
"It is...huh?" A sad smile curved on his face. "It's...alright...I don't care anymore...I'm...sorry for dragging you...into this...stupidity..." Tsuna continued as he can no longer look at Hibari who was still standing in front of him, with his usual blank expression. "We...are no longer...together...You are free...to lo-love...anyone...Thank you...for everything...Kyo...Hi-Hibari-san..."
"Ahh." Was all Hibari answered to Tsuna and leave the room, Tsuna's office.
Right after Hibari leave his office, his legs becomes weak and he was slumped on his chair, still crying and sobbing. He turned his chair facing the big window behind him and stared at the dark empty sky. His mind dozed to his memory on that painful day a year ago when he was newly officially appointed as the Tenth Vongola Leader for three months.
"Hibari…I have a favour for you." Said Reborn with such a serious expression.
"Hn? What, akanbou?"
"Hmn, that Dame-student of mine might confess to you, and so…I want you to accept it."
Tsuna was shocked to hear Reborn's word from his hiding place. He almost screamed but held it in. By years, his hiding skills had become much better and he even managed to hide his presence from Reborn. A skill that is very useful at times when he wanted to run away from Reborn's daily torture, under the scheme of way on 'training' him.
"Hn? Reasons?" Hibari asked as his eyes were narrowed.
"Hmn, he might concentrate on his job better that way. Can you do that?"
"Hn…what's there for me?" Asked Hibari who was still deciding on his answer to Reborn.
"Hmph, I will fight you to your heart content then." The answer that Reborn gave was enough to make Hibari smile.
"Okay." He answered as he is content with the trade.
"Good…and this is a secret between the two of us, got that?"
"Hn."
Even when he knows about the deal that Hibari made with Reborn, he still confessed to Hibari, believing that Hibari might come to like him, even a tiny bit after he had get together with him. Tsuna tried to make him comfortable and not to make any demand to Hibari, knowing his nature but still, the treatment that Hibari gave to him was cold. He should be contented that Hibari actually accept his confession, even if it was just a favour for Reborn but still, he wanted more. He is greedy when it comes to the person that he love, he wanted him to actually spare a glance to him but it was all for nothing. Hibari was still cold. He never did look at Tsuna properly. Well, he did spare his time with Tsuna but only remained silent. Tsuna tried to converse with him but still, he talk and talk but he did not receive any answer and it was soon become a silent treatment and their time together was awkward all the time.
A year had pass, Tsuna could no longer stand it. The cold shoulder, the cold treatment, every effort that he made was for nothing. He is tired, very tired. This useless relationship had reached the end. It was a good thing that everyone had gone for mission and the only one left was just the mansion workers, him and his cloud guardian. It really is a good thing indeed. Even Reborn is gone for something. He kept on crying silently in his office.
-*XxxxX*-
"Juu…daime…aren't you pushing yourself too much?" Asked the concerned Gokudera as Tsuna had been confining himself inside his office for a month now.
"I'm sorry, Gokudera-kun…but…there is still paperwork to be done…" Tsuna answered as his hand keep on working non-stop.
"Bu-but…Juudaime…you had been working non-stop for a month now…shouldn't you take a day or two away for a while…I'll help you with the rest of it myself." Said Gokudera as he was worried for Tsuna's health.
"I'm fine…there's only a stack left anyway…after these I'll promise I'll take a day off." Answered Tsuna with a weak smile on his face.
"We-well….if Juudaime says so…"
It seems that Tsuna had been doing paperwork all the time. The only rest that he had is to eat, sleep and nature calls. Reborn who had return from his business is fully aware that something is wrong with Tsuna and he wanted to know what had happened during his absent inside the mansion. And the first person he had gone to search for answers is Hibari. Hibari was resting inside the forest behind the mansion with his little bird, Hibird when Reborn suddenly call out to him.
"Hn, akanbou." Hibari quickly jumped from the branch that he was sitting on to meet Reborn.
"Hibari…did something happen during my absentees?" Asked Reborn with such a serious voice.
"…" It seems that the question had caught him off guard.
"Tell me." With the simple order that Reborn had made, forced Hibari to actually told Reborn about the incident that had occurred between him and Tsuna a month ago.
Reborn was actually shocked by the way things are going but what surprised him more are Tsuna's actions. At times, Reborn knows exactly what he was thinking but this time, he couldn't decipher anything, but the only thing that he knows for sure is that Tsuna is burying himself with works so that he wouldn't need to think about his relationship with Hibari.
"I see." Was what Reborn had said after thinking for a while. "Well…it seems that he can make a decision for himself now."
Months had turns into a year, Tsuna had been taking his duty as a very important matter. Within a year, he had gain a lot of achievement. Not to mention that he had drowned himself with mission, paperwork, meetings and party that was set up by the alliance family. Tsuna's appearance began to change throughout the year. His hair was longer and it seems that his hair that used to defy the gravity had actually turned for better. He let them grew until it reached just slightly above his shoulder which actually made him look more feminine and his built does not seem to have any changes. His height had improved but still slowly. Tsuna had actually caught many attention from woman to man. Most of them would actually try to escort him but was declined by him politely.
"Tsuna…" A stern but small voice could be heard over stacks of paper.
"Eh? Uhh? Re-Reborn?" Asked Tsuna, trying to search for Reborn through the stacks of paper in front of him, he actually had to stand to see Reborn standing in front of his desk with a rather fierce expression. "Di-did I do something?" Asked Tsuna who actually tried to think anything that he had done to actually irked Reborn.
"You need to rest." Reborn stated as he actually noticed that it had been a year since he last took a day resting. It actually worries him seeing him overworking himself.
"Uhh…I don't think I could with all the paperwork…" Said Tsuna while scratching the side of his cheek lightly with a rather hesitant smile on his face.
"The other guardian could help you with it. You need to take a vacation, Tsuna." Reborn sounded very serious.
"Bu-but…"
"No 'but'…you'll be having a one week vacation. You can go anywhere that you want. Do you want someone to accompany you?" Asked Reborn.
"We-well…if you…say so…and no…I'll be okay alone." Tsuna answered and sighed.
"Okay then…prepare for your vacation then." Said Tsuna as he went out of the office with a smirk.
"Ahhh…"
-*XxxxX*-
"Ahhh…it's been a while…" Said Tsuna as he was feeling the wind with his bare face.
Tsuna had decided to go for a cruise trip for his vacation. A one week long trip. He never told anyone about what he would be doing and goes for his vacation. Even if they asked him he would just say that he don't want anyone to follow him and so he kept it as a secret from everyone except for the head butler in case of something bad had happen during his vacation, the head butler would report it to him. Reborn was against it of course since he thought that it would be dangerous for him because he might be attack or killed by the other family.
"Tsuna, just tell me where are you going and what would you do for your vacation." Ordered Reborn as Tsuna was packing his belongings.
"No. I won't, the head butler know and he would report to me if anything happen during my vacation and I would report back to him about my condition so that you guys can keep in touch with me. Don't worry Reborn, I know how to take care of myself. I really need a time off from the family…please understand Reborn." Tsuna said as he left a sad smile on his face which made Reborn to sigh.
"Fine…but you need to explain it to your guardian yourself. It seems that they are not pleased with the arrangement that you had made…especially Gokudera." Reborn stated before he leave Tsuna alone inside his room.
"Okay…thanks …Reborn."
After Reborn left, Tsuna sigh and sat on his bed, looking at his luggage and clothes that were scattered on the bed. He closed his eyes before opening them to see the ceiling of his room and sigh loudly. He gently touch his Sky ring on his finger before taking it off and put them on a chain and wear them around his neck.
"It is a vacation…no work…no mafia…no…famiglia…" He mumbles softly before closing his eyes once again only to open them again with a serious expression on his face.
Now, he was in front of his guardians at the meeting room with his luggage prepared for his one week vacation trip. He had rang for Dino and told him about his absent for one long week only to hear the older man sobbing and sniffling begging for Tsuna to tell him where he would be going only to be answered with a sigh and one word, 'secret'.
"Juudaime, why won't you tell us where you are going?" Asked Gokudera with an obvious worried face.
"It is a secret…I don't want anyone to suddenly appear on my vacation time, especially you Gokudera…and you too Mukuro." Said Tsuna as he averted his gaze from Gokudera to Mukuro who was leaning against the wall with a smirk on his face.
"Kufufufufufufu…" Tsuna sigh hearing that eerie laugh from Mukuro.
"Boss…Mukuro-sama just worried…that's all…" Added Chrome.
"Kufufu…thank you, my dear Nagi…who knows what would happen to you, Young Vongola…it is much better if I knows where you are so that I could keep a track of you…kufufufu…"
"No means no, no one except for the head butler can know where I am." Tsuna demand.
"Bu-but…at least let Reborn-san knows, Juudaime…" Begged Gokudera.
"I agree with Gokudera, Tsuna…" Said Yamamoto with a broad smile on his face.
"I am sorry minna…but…I really need a time off…from everything…" Said Tsuna with a hint of sadness which startled Gokudera the most.
"Bu-but…okay…I understand…if Juudaime wished for it…" Gokudera finally agreed.
"Thank you…"
"Haaaa…" A loud sigh could be heard which had broken Tsuna's daydream. "Ah...did I startle you?" That man asked with a smile on his face.
"We-well…not really…" Tsuna said with a smile on his face.
"Haaa…good…" That man said with a sigh of relief "Well…I just got dump a week ago by my boyfriend…I'm sorry if I did something stupid…" That man said with a sad smile on his face. "Ah!...I-I….I didn't said…boy…fri..end…di-did i?" That man sweatdroped.
"Ahh…" "He is so open about it..." "We-well…I…was dumped too…by…my bo-boyfriend…so…well…yeah…I do-don't mind…" Said Tsuna with a sad smile on his face.
"Haha…we are two pies in a pond, huh?" Than man asked.
"Yeah…" It almost sound like a sigh.
"Oh! I'm Giotto by the way."
"Sawada Tsunayoshi…but you can call me Tsuna."
"Tsuna then!" Answered Giotto excitedly.
It seems that both Tsuna and Giotto had been spending most of their time together. Tsuna felt comfortable talking to Giotto and it put him at ease and not to mention that somehow he felt as if they had known each other for such a long time already which was weird. Giotto seems to have so much fun listening to Tsuna's stories about his family and friends and Giotto too had been telling Tsuna stories about his family and friends.
"Ehh? Giotto-san…you are a mafia too?" Asked Tsuna as Giotto told Tsuna what he worked for.
"Yeah…kinda…wait WHAT? Too?" Giotto was shocked to hear that kind of word coming from Tsuna.
"Yup…haha…" Tsuna was laughing awkwardly seeing the jaw dropped Giotto in front of him.
"You…Tsuna…I just…can't believe it…" Said Giotto.
Well who would possibly blames Giotto for thinking that was since Tsuna looked so innocent and harmless and fragile enough that he might actually injured badly if someone were to patted his shoulder hard and he looked like he can't even possibly stepped on an ant for god sake. But yeah, reality sure is shocking.
"Umm…you are in mafia…are you the workers like a chef or butler or something?" Asked Tsuna trying to ease his heart a little bit.
"Ummm…actually…I'm the boss…"Asnwered Tsuna while smiling sheepishly.
"…" Giotto freeze.
"Umm…Giotto-san?" After a long ten minutes silent Tsuna opened his mouth.
"You…got to be joking…" Giotto finally said as if he were grumbling. "Why…." He kept on moping.
"Well…kinda inherit it…ha ha…I tried to reject it though but…my tutor would actually kill me if I did that…and my friends are in danger because of that so…I don't…really want them to get hurt…" Tsuna said with a sad expression on his face.
"Okay…I can accept that…" Giotto said with a broad smile on his face. "So…what famiglia are you in charged with?" Asked Giotto after sipping his red wine.
"Von…Vongola?"
Giotto chocked with his drinks which made Tsuna to stand up and patted Giotto's back gently worried for his life. Giotto sure get startled a lot that night. He was actually thinking that it might all be just a bad dream and that he would actually wake up from it when he got choked on his wine.
"Seri…*cough *cough..ously…*cough…"
"Uhm…I'm sorry…" Said Tsuna while looking sad and dejected.
"Wow…uhm…no, it's okay…well…I am a mafia boss as well…from the Licht Famiglia." Giotto said with a charming smile on his face.
"Ahh…I heard of that Famiglia before!" Said Tsuna excitedly. "You guys helped the Cavalone Family before when they were attacked by the enemy, right?"
"Yeah…that's us…we actually wanted to have an alliance with Cavalone Family when suddenly they were attacked. After all the fighting the Cavalone Boss thanked us and took us as an alliance. I was thankful that it went well." Giotto said while he was remembering that say clearly on his mind.
"Hahaha…well yeah, I heard that story from my older brother…" Tsuna said with a smile.
"Brother?"
"Yeah, Dino Cavalone is like a brother to me. He would visits us time to time." Tsuna said calmly.
"The…Cavalone Boss is your…I mean…I didn't know. God, Tsuna…I got startled a lot today." Giotto answered and ended it with a sigh. "Was it hard…for you?"
"Hmm…well…sometimes…but…my friends and family is with me…so…I'm actually happy." A broad and proud smile curved on his face.
"Then…that's good enough…" Giotto said with a broad smile.
It had been three days since the first time Tsuna met Giotto when he aboard the cruise liner for his vacation. Tsuna felt at ease being with Giotto and whenever they are together, Tsuna can't help but felt happy and relief. He truly enjoys the vacation and the time that he had spent with Giotto on the vacation. Smile never left Tsuna's face as he was talking and taking a stroll with Giotto, somehow all his problems had flown away. How he really wished that the time would stop and freeze.
It seems that later that night, Tsuna had been drinking alcohol at the bar. Thinking about something, he was taught by Reborn on how to hold down the liquor which mostly include being force to drink till he dropped right after he turn into the age of an adult. But, that night was a bit different, he seems to be lost in his thoughts and started to drink non-stop. By the time Giotto found him, he was already drunk and was giggling after being spoken with someone who was trying to get into his pants in Giotto's view. Tsuna looked flush and he was smiling sweetly which actually make others to be seduced with it. Giotto was glad that he got the words about Tsuna and was there before Tsuna did something which he would probably regret for his whole life.
Giotto was helping Tsuna to lay on his bed when he suddenly heard Tsuna mumbling something that he could not understand in Japanesse. Giotto actually knows how to speak Japanesse thanks to his friend and rain guardian, Asari but the way Tsuna was speaking actually makes no sense at that moment. Giotto was helping Tsuna to change his clothes when suddenly Tsuna stopped talking and just look straight at him. Tears started to flow which made Giotto flustered and panicked.
"Tsu-Tsu-Tsuna?" Asked Giotto trying to calm him by gently cupping his face and wiping the tears off.
"Why? *sob*sob…neee~ Why? *sob *sob…"
"Wh-why? What's with 'why'?" Giotto asked almost face palmed himself.
"Gi-Giotto-san…Is it…dis-disgusting?" Tsuna asked while sniffing a little.
"He looks…wait, he acts like a child…" Giotto thought.
"What is disgusting?" Giotto asked, sounding matured and serious but still smiling gently towards Tsuna who was now had stopped crying. His hand was still cupping Tsuna's face.
"Am I…disgusting? Why didn't Kyoya like me? He didn't even want to touch my hand…wh-why?" With that being said, he burst into tears again.
"Kyoya? Ouh…his ex…"
"Tsuna…you are the cutest and beautiful guy I have ever met. Believe me…that person might be blind for not noticing it." Giotto was actually telling him the truth, a gentle smile formed on his face which calmed Tsuna.
"Real-really?"
"Yes…I'm not lying…"Giotto said and he kissed Tsuna's forehead gently.
"I…I am we-weird afterall…" Tsuna said as he gently touched Giotto's face. Trailing down his cheek and gently cupped his cheek and let his hand set on Giotto's chest, looking down.
"Tsuna?"
Tsuna started to get off of the bed and walks towards the door, opening them slightly and just waited there while still looking down on the ground, trying to avoid looking at Giotto's face. Giotto was shocked at this and walks toward Tsuna and gently lifted Tsuna's chin to make sure Tsuna is now facing him.
"Tsuna…What's wrong?" Giotto asked with a husky and gentle voice which made Tsuna blush and turn his face away from Giotto.
"…" Tsuna started to bit his lip and looked down again.
"Tsuna…please…look at me." Giotto asked as he kneeled down.
"…" Tsuna started to cry again which worries Giotto.
"Tsuna…"
"I…I want to sle-sleep…I'm ti-tired…" Tsuna finally said.
"Okay…I understand…rest well okay, and call me if anything happen…it that okay?" Giotto said as he was worried about Tsuna.
"Hmm…okay…than-thank you…Giotto-san."
Giotto was lying on his bed, not able to sleep even though the clock had strike to 3 in the morning. His mind was still thinking about Tsuna who had gotten so drunk and started to cry. Remembering Tsuna's words makes him think that something bad might have happened to Tsuna while he was not by his side on that day. Whether he believes it or not, he had cared for that young man for more than just a friend. Damn, he had fallen for that young man. The way Tsuna smiles make his heart to flutter and warmed. Seeing him crying and become broken like that was actually painful. More than it did when he was shot by the enemy.
"Tsuna…" He mumbles the name fondly.
Suddenly his cell phone is ringing loudly and shocked him and awakes him from his thought. Giotto was almost curses at the caller but stopped as he saw the ID of the caller. It was his right-hand man and best friend, G. He wanted to just ignore the call as he was rather sleepy but after lots of thinking, he scratched the idea out and answered the call.
"G? Do you know what time it is right now?" Asked Giotto sounding a bit annoyed.
"Yeah, I know. But this is important Giotto." Said G calmly.
"Why? What happened?" Asked Giotto who got worried hearing the news that G had bring to him.
"Well, it seems that your vacation is cut short. Alaude found out that the Biliggio family wanted to land an attack towards the Vongola and told Cavalone family about it. It seems that Dino, the Cavalone boss asked for our help to support them." Explained G.
"Okay, but…did the Vongola family know about it yet?" Asked Giotto as his mind went to Tsuna.
"They had been informed but it seems that, none of them know where their boss is, He might be in a safe place but they are trying to get him to return. Why would you ask?" Asked G who became curious as Giotto seems concerned for the man that he had never even met yet.
"Ju-just asking…" Answered Giotto.
"Giotto…was you hiding something from me?" G asked as he sense something is off with Giotto.
"We-well…I…actually know…where the Vongola boss is?" Said Giotto hesitantly.
"YOU WHAT? HOW? WHERE?" Shouted G over the phone sounded almost mad.
"…" Giotto actually need to pull his phone away from his ear before he became deaf caused by the shouting. "Damn G, do you have to shout?" He asked sounded a bit angry.
"Damn it Giotto! You knew and you didn't tell me? When did you know and how? Even the Cavalone knows nothing." G huffed at the fact.
"We-well…I kinda…meet him?" Giotto closed his eyes and pull the phone away for a second only to listen nothing came out of the phone. "Umm…G?"
"…" G sighed loudly and calmed himself before he started to speak again. "Where did you meet him?" G asked.
"He-here?"
"You…'here'…there?" G asked as he became puzzled by Giotto's answer to him.
"Yeah, on the cruise…we kinda spend some time together….talk…and stroll around…and he told me on the day we met." Giotto explained.
"So…he is there with you right now?"
"Not now…just a few hours ago…I brought him to his room, he was…drunk?"
"Drunk? And…you did nothing else?" G asked almost sounding disbelief on what Giotto had told him.
"Wha-What do you mean by that?" Giotto asked with a blushed red face over the phone.
"Giotto, I've known you for years…seriously…why else would you spend time with him other than the fact that he is the Vongola boss…caused I know what you might want to say regarding if that was the case but…spend time together? Talk? Stroll? You don't even like it when we are invited to the gathering parties saying that you hate talking to the other family's boss since you say that all of them were just trying to look big and whatsoever and you are spending time with the Vongola, the Vongola's boss for God sake!" G stated his mind off to Giotto who just became dumbfounded listening to G's words.
"…"
"So…you fall for him?" G dropped the bomb onto Giotto at that moment.
"You…G….wha…How….just….you...damn!" Giotto became flustered at G's question and stuttered with his own words while he blush beet red over the phone.
"So…I got it right." Teased G.
"Fine! YES! I…had fallen for him…I-I…I like him." Giotto confessed.
"You love him." G corrected him.
"But…we just…met…and he…broke up with a guy a year ago…and he still had feelings for his ex…and I…I don't know…" Giotto poured his heart out to G.
"Giotto…I'm not the best person whom you should be asking for advise but…just follow your heart…and your intuition. It works best." G advised him.
"Okay…thanks G."
"No problem…anytime." G said and hung up the phone.
