Drowning

It's a gift for my Beloved, and just as you have read it folks, there is no pairing here.

It was suffocating.

That's what Tsuna felt when his head met his pillow, when he sank at the darkness, slowly falling asleep.

Once, he is afraid of darkness because Mochida told him that a boogeyman is hiding at the darkness, waiting for him.

Then Reborn came, like darkness himself. Making his life a living hell but change his life in many ways.

But after years of loneliness and sadness started to topple on him, the brunet can now call darkness as his friend.

He once wondered how Xanxus could bear this much darkness, but he know that the Varia leader's stress reliever is killing. And Tsuna has a hemophobia.
So scratched it.

But he still can't shake the fact that the darkness around him is a deep water.
It drag him, made him slightly paranoid when it comes to water and pool.

And that is what he felt after tons of torture from Reborn and the responsibility that was forced to him.

Hopeless, with no sign of struggle.

Bu no one know about his fear of darkness, his pain and anxiety. That's why when he finally wake up from those sea of darkness, he faced his mirror, staring back at his reflection.

Hollow eyes, deep eyebags, sunken cheeks, blue lips. Is that him?

The brunet forced a smile before dressing up to face another day fooling everyone with his smile, his reflection disappearing from the mirror with an anguished look.
