Double means Danger

The sky was on a perfect sunset hue when that tealnet finally reached his destination.

And so, giving a push on that doorbell, he then waited someone to open it for him.

"Ara, it's that you, Tetsu-kun? What a surprise visit!" A brunette who he noticed as his aunt, Sawada Nana, greeted with a smile.

"Domo, Nana-san, I came here to deliver kaa-san's cooking..." That boy, now revealed as Tetsu said as he handed her the said goods.

"Aoi's?" Nana questioned as she took the plastic bag. Before then she beamed once again.

"Well, thank you then, Tetsu-kun! Care to join me and Tsu-kun for dinner?" Nana offered.

"If It's not troubling you so much..." he politely replies.

"Of course not! You are my brother's son! And besides, everyone's out today, only the two of us here. So, come on in!" Said Nana, smiling brightly as she mentioned him to go inside.

"Sorry for the intrusion" Tetsu said as he took off his shoes.

"I'll call you when I finished... all the meanwhile you can go upstairs and greet Tsu-kun first..."

"Hai..." and so, Tetsu went to the said Brunet's room. Just to find him frowning  with arm crossed at the sight of a bowl with something that seemed like homemade cookies.

"Tsunayoshi?" He called, ruining the other teen's concentration as well making him slightly startled.

Tsuna then raised his gaze to see the teal haired boy before then he sighed, "my God, it was only you, Tetsu... seriously, one of these days you'll give me heart attack..."

"Sumimasen..." Tetsu apologised while Tsuna just wave it off.

"Anyway, come and take a seat..." and so the phantom player did.

"Oh my, it's trully has been a while since you last visited." Tsuna said with a smile. "So, any special reason why you're here?"

"Not really, it's just Kaa-san cooked a bit too much for lunch, and so she sends me to gave you some..." Tetsu said.

"Hee... is that so?" Tsuna hummed before then his eyes caught on the sight of a neatly wrapped box decorated with teal polxadot ribbon.

"What's that?" Curiously pointing at the said box, he asked his cousin.

"Momoi-san gave me earlier..." Tetsu lightly replied as he undone the ribbon as well the wrapper.

"Oh wow... was this supposed to be for Valentine?" Tsuna said as the contain was revealed to be a heart shaped cake. It smells like vanilla...

Yet all the while, Tetsu just blinked, "it was... today?"

And now Tsuna stared at him bewildered, "you don't know?"

At that Tetsu shrugged, "never paid attention before, though, that would explain a lot about those gifts in front of our door this morning..."

"Heh... you sure is popular, Tetsu..." Tsuna teased.

"And that came from the person who has his bed all covered with the same thing..." Tetsu replied in deadpan as his thumb pointed over his shoulder where the said bed is.

Tsuna chuckled nervously, "yeah, apparently the girls starting to look at me as soon we enter high school, and not to mention some who came from my guardians and friends..."

At the mention of his cousin's current life makes Tetsu to fondly smile, "you've changed a lot since middle school. I remember you as something completely different than this."

Chuckling, Tsuna then replies, "Tell me about it. Never I ever dreamed to become what I am now. I really need to thank Reborn on one of these days."

Tetsu hummed, "where is he, anyway?"

"Italy, apparently" Tsuna responded.

"Taking care of... mafia-thingy?" Because Tetsu has met Reborn and the guardians once. And the hitman was even about to recruit him into their famiglia if not for Tsuna who against it. Of course, that has ended him with tenfold training course but to tge brunet it was worth it. No need for more innocent lives to be dragged into his crazy life...

Fortunately, Tetsu is one open minded person, he easily accept the fact that two of his cousins are not as civilians as they seemed. One as a future mafia boss and one a becoming assassin... though, that was for another day to tell.

Yeah, anyway...

"Are you going to eat that or what?" Tetsu asked as he pointed at Tsuna's cookies.

The brunet just shrugged unsure, "though, Kyoko, Chrome and Haru was the one who made it. Still I'm worried. Afterall, the three were trained by Bianchi. And we all know how batsh** crazy her poison-cooking skill is." -Indeed... and Tetsu has learned his lesson.

"How about you?" This time Tsuna was the one to ask.

"I... don't know either. I mean, Momoi-san's cooking although not delicious, at least it's edible. These ones however, are made by both her and Coach. So I'm a little afraid that it could be poisoned" and again, Tetsu has learned his lesson.

"Okay... so, neither of us okay with this. Should we just burn them?" -not a bad idea, but neither of them are willing either.

"I don't want to feel terrible" Tetsu said in all honesty.

"Yeah... me too" Tsuna agreed. And then silence.

"Let's just take a bite of each then?" Tetsu suggested, and Tsuna be like...

"Well, I don't think there's another option. Should I get us some drinks?"

Tetsu nods, "lots of water just in case."

And so, five minutes later Tsuna returned with two big cup of water.

Glancing at each other, both teens take one of their cookies.

"Are you ready?" Tsuna asked, and Tetsu was attempted to just shook his head and flee, but his pride inly allows him to gulp down his nervousness.

"Okay then, on the count of three... 1... 2... 3..." -and they bite. Hums coming afterwards.

"Wow... it actually turns out good..." Tetsu blinked before then takes another bite.

"Yeah, no kidding... Now I feel bad for bad mouthing them." Tsuna also commented.

"Hey... wanna try some of mine?" Offers Tetsu.

"Sure... have some mine." Tsuna offers back. And so they take a bite of each other's cookies.

Everything was fine... at first.

However, they were late to notice that world seems to swirls around them as soon they finished their second cookies.

"I think... we just made a grave mistake..."
And that is the last thing Tsuna said before he passed out next to his already unconscious cousin...
