been listening to the conversation inside.

had been hoping to spend some private time with Tsuna at the ryokan, dammit. ;3;

probably have to wait another year before he'll have a chance like this again. TAT

, after giving his room one final sweep, dragged his luggage out, and ran into Mukuro at the door.

o_o Mukuro! Uh. Were you listening?

... Yes. ;3;

A-ah.....

can see that Mukuro is moping, mostly likely about the very same thing he'd been worried about.

the need to apologize. And maybe try to cheer the other boy up.

Um. S-sorry. It turned into a big affair.

Mm. ;3;

..... I think Gokudera-kun got us a suite, though?

... And?

Err. S-suites should have smaller rooms connected to a common area, right?

added, "It could be worse. All six of us could be squished into one big room."

............. I suppose. ;__;

So, uh.... don't sulk anymore?

... Only if you promise me one thing. ;3;

.____. What is it?

You'll have to promise first. ;3;

*suspiciously* O... kay?

didn't want to agree that easily, but he felt bad that Mukuro wasn't happy about how things were turning out.

......... 8D

Don't stop me from doing or taking anything while we're at the ryokan. |D

D:

B-but, you can't just go around stealing things! And Hibari-san told me to keep you away from him!

...... suuuulks. ;3;

There's lots of fun things we can do in an onsen, so why are you making me promise that, unless you're going to do something illegal?

But you already promised. ;3;

;A; B-but.....

immediately started thinking of other ways to go around the promise without breaking it....

could tell the others to watch Mukuro on his behalf, maybe. And, like, apologize to Hibari in advance or something. T_T

morosely shook his head. "N-nevermind...."

wasn't really in the mood to argue with Mukuro on this point. He turned around and dragged his luggage downstairs.

already starting to dread going on the trip. TwT
