A quick reminder; The characters will be out of character because I haven't watched KHR in a long time! This will be slow paced, and this is a one-shot! Thank you!♡
MENTIONED: SUN × SKY STORM × SKY, ALL × SKY.
“Neh, Reborn.” The slight pitch in his tone felt awkward, and it was embarrassing. Well, almost. Tsuna remained on the ground right near his tutor, Reborn. After a slight moment, Reborn glanced down at his student with an elegant brow arched. “Yes, Dame-Tsuna?” Tsuna played with his fingers, bending his pointer finger with his middle finger. His eyes capturing every detail on the ground instead of making eye contact with the hitman. “Are you… will you… by chance, stay with me?... I-I realize you aren’t obligated to stay with me s-since I’m not your student or whatever but… I just… you know… y-yeah…” Reborn stared at Tsuna, amused. Tsuna had said so much yet, he hadn’t finished on proper statement. But Reborn understood the shy sentiment down to every stutter. Every tremble and warble in his voice. He understood the boy. What type of teacher would he be if he couldn’t understand his student after being with him longer than a year.
“Tsuna, do you mind repeating that with less stutter? It gets hard to understand~,”
“Please… Please don’t leave me, Reborn. I would- I want you to stay with me. Please.”
Reborn smiled, sure it was dark. But that was to be expected. Finally sitting up, and uncrossing his legs, he reached over to the fluff of hair that Tsuna could never tame. It was a ridiculous mane that Reborn couldn’t help but get fond of, as many have before. Tsuna looked up with a slight squint, his hands falling into his lap as he looked at Reborn’s hand petting him. And while for some, that wasn’t an answer to anything. To Tsuna, after staying with the tortuous and caring tutor of his, this response meant the world. Tsuna smiled.
“I’m so happy!”
Tsuna sat at his desk, his arms placed on top of the varnished wood. His eyes were half-lidded and his vision was blurry as he stared at a teacup with intricate patterns skillfully painted on it. Had he gotten this cup from...? Ah, he remembered. It was from Reborn. From what he could remember, it was his birthday. Tsuna smiled wistfully.
Gokudera was screaming about how today was an extremely special day, and with Yamamoto nodding. Tsuna was confused, "Why is today special, Gokudera?" The incredulous look Hayato gave him made Tsuna step back a bit nervous, "E-Eh...?" And Yamamoto chuckled, wrapping his arm around Tsuna's waist, "It's your birthday!" Tsuna blinked before making a surprised noise. "I-It is!? Wah, I completely forgot! " Tsuna wanted to slap his forehead for such a silly mistake.
Gokudera smirked, "Well, as your most trusted guardian, I think now would be the best time to celebrate! Right Reborn? "
Reborn looked at the little trio, then at Tsuna before nodding, "Yeah, now would probably be best; knowing Dame-Tsuna, he would forget."
