had been popping by the rabbit cage frequently over the past couple of days, but it was always empty. ._.
initially thought that Tsuna had brought it to the vet or something.
--But it should've been back within a day or two if that was the case.
hadn't heard him talking about the rabbit lately either. .-.
Mukuro
is
...starting to wonder if the other boy had given it away. |D
Mukuro
hopes
he has. That furball doesn't do anything except eat, sleep, and laze around all day anyway.
Mukuro
thinks
... And steal Tsuna's attention away from him. =3=
...found the cage still empty when he got home after class.
Mukuro
feels
....... |)
Mukuro
thinks
that if Tsuna doesn't bring the rabbit back by today, he will definitely have given it away. |DDD
bounced up to Tsuna's room and pulled a chair up to the window, waiting for the boy to come home.
headed home after spending an hour at the shopping district.
felt just a bit worried. As he'd thought, the main themes he saw were chocolates, flowers, and dates. It wasn't anything new.
wondered if it was okay for him to just go with the traditional route and try to bake something with chocolate.
had been fairly successful the last time he baked something for Mukuro. Maybe he could do it this time, too.
Tsuna
was
still brooding when he walked up to his house, so he didn't see Mukuro waiting for him by the window to his room.
stood up, pulled the window open and leaned out as soon as he spotted Tsuna walking up towards the house.
grinned. Tsuna wasn't carrying a box or anything that he could put a rabbit in.
Mukuro
wants
to glomp Tsuna. Right now. <3333
climbed up onto the windowsill just as Tsuna got close enough and pounced, arms wide. "Tsunayoshi-kun~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <3"
looked up when Mukuro called out, and his mouth dropped open when he realized that the other boy was planning on squishing him. oAo
quickly scrambled backwards. He had no desire to be flattened. That was the second floor, for god's sake!
Mukuro
says
DDDD:!!
tried to reach for Tsuna and somehow managed to grab onto his pants, but he still ended up falling flat onto the pavement anyway.
--And pull the boy's pants down by accident.
Tsuna
was
pushed off-balance when Mukuro's hands knocked into his legs, and he tried not to fall over, but his pants tangled with his feet and--
fell over backwards just as Mukuro smacked face-down on the path.
waited for the dust to clear before muttering a heartfelt "owww" and bringing his hand around to rub at his tailbone.
froze when he realized that Mukuro really *had* pulled his pants down... and he was wearing his heart-patterned boxers. OAAAO
flushed and staggered upright despite the pain to his butt, hands jerkily pulling his pants up, and opened his mouth to shriek his protest--
stopped and looked at Mukuro more closely. He'd been expecting the other boy to say something by now, but he was still lying there prone.
warily crouched down and poked at Mukuro's head with a finger. "... H-hey. Are you still alive?"
doesn't say anything.
Mukuro
is
in too much pain to move, or even speak at the moment.
made a face and reached out to turn the other boy over.
whined, after a moment, "Tsunayoshiiiii---- ;AAA;"
sighed. Still conscious, and still lucid enough to whine.
scolded, "What were you thinking, jumping down from the second floor?"
Mukuro
says
I just wanted to welcome you home. ;3;
Tsuna
says
You could have done that from the front door. D:
Mukuro
says
I didn't want to wait that long. ;A;
Tsuna
says
=_= And what do you think would have happened if I hadn't moved out of the way?
Mukuro
says
... Nothing as bad as lying here feeling like I've just been run over by a truck. ;3;
thought, and what about him? If he'd knocked his head against the ground? Mukuro was taller and heavier than him. >_>|||
suddenly remembered Reborn telling him that his head was harder than a Mosca's...
Tsuna
says
... Fine. I'll remember not to move out of the way next time, then. >_>|||
stepped around Mukuro, and after thinking about it, held his hand out to help the other boy up.
smiled, grabbed onto Tsuna's hand and stood up before pulling the smaller boy into a hug. <3
Tsuna
says
o.o!
grumbled, "I thought you said that you feel like you've been run over by a truck."
Mukuro
says
I do. |3 *snuggles*
Tsuna
says
*dubiously* You don't *act* like you feel you've been run over by a truck.
Mukuro
says
... I've gotten used to it? |D
Tsuna
says
..... Eh. .__.
Mukuro
says
This isn't the first time I've fallen off the second floor. .-.
Tsuna
says
Uh. T-that was. .______.
Mukuro
says
And there was that time where I jumped off a tree too. ;3;
Tsuna
says
._______________.
Mukuro
says
............ You don't remember? ;___;
Tsuna
says
D: I do, but!
hadn't been expecting Mukuro to bring all those times up *now*. It wasn't as if he'd... dodged just to make sure Mukuro fell... right?
looked away, to the side, and fidgeted. "A-am I supposed to feel guilty?" he mumbled.
chuckled. "No, but I wouldn't stop you if you do and want to make it up to me. |3"
Tsuna
says
.... And you've been avoiding me the past week. What's with the sudden about-face?
blinks. "........... Whatever are you talking about, Tsunayoshi-kun? ^______^"
stared. "You've been avoiding me," he repeated slowly. "And not answering my questions whenever I ask why you've been sulking around."
Mukuro
says
No I haven't. You must be imagining it. ^_____^
Tsuna
says
I'm not imagining it! D:
Mukuro
says
Perhaps you were dreaming then. ^______^ *nuzzles Tsuna's hair*
Tsuna
says
I didn't dream it! D<
Mukuro
asks
Are you sure? ^___^
Tsuna
says
I'm sure! DD<
Mukuro
says
Well I certainly don't remember avoiding you. Or sulking. |3
Tsuna
says
D: What? Did you get amnesia when you hit the ground?
Mukuro
says
Hmm~ Maybe. Who knows? |D
Tsuna
says
Eeeh.
Tsuna
asks
Can you stop trying to confuse me? D<
Mukuro
says
But it seems like you're the one who's trying to confuse me and not me trying to confuse you. |D
Mukuro
says
...Or perhaps we're both confused. <3
Tsuna
says
<_________>
squirmed out of Mukuro's grip. He wanted to go into the house, not stand outside like this being pushed around in circles again.
blinked. "...... Tsunayoshi? .-."
Mukuro
wonders
if he made Tsuna mad again. .__.
mumbled, "... Can we go in now? I need to prepare for Saturday."
nodded.
Mukuro
asks
... Saturday?
Tsuna
says
vaguely, "Saturday." He wasn't about to make this easy on the other boy. =_=
knows Saturday is Valentine's Day. He has been preparing for it for a while. But...
Mukuro
asks
... You'll be busy on Saturday? D:
shook his head and headed inside the house, and up the stairs into his room.
Mukuro
says
DDD: *follows Tsuna up to his room* ...What did you mean by preparing for Saturday?
Tsuna
says
Exactly what I said.
studiously ignored Mukuro's confusion and began to change into something more comfortable.
Mukuro
feels
... :<
walked up behind Tsuna and rested his chin on the boy's shoulder while his arms circling around his waist. "Neeeee. :<"
Tsuna
says
What?
Mukuro
asks
What will you be doing on Saturday? :<
Tsuna
says
... Like I said. Nothing important.
Mukuro
says
...You wouldn't need to prepare for it if it wasn't important. :<
Tsuna
says
I said I'm only preparing for Saturday. I didn't say that I'm doing anything important *on* Saturday.
Tsuna
thinks
technically, not on the day itself. More like very early morning? He was starting to think that he might have to miss sleep on Friday night.
can't see how he was going to surprise Mukuro if the other boy was insisting on being this clingy.
Tsuna
was
starting to wonder if maybe he shouldn't have mentioned Saturday. Mukuro seemed suspiciously upset about it.
Mukuro
says
... But you *will* be doing something on Saturday, right? :<
shook his head. Mukuro was never going to drop this, is he? Like a dog worrying at a bone. And he called Gokudera a puppy.
Tsuna
says
*exasperatedly* It's just a de-li-ve-ry.
Tsuna
says
Don't ask anymore if you don't want to spoil the surprise.
Tsuna
says
*pause*
Tsuna
says
Ano ne..... Can I finish changing now? I'm half-naked, and it's *cold*.
Mukuro
thinks
.......... |3
would ask more about this... 'surprise', but he has other things in mind at the moment.
tightened his hold on Tsuna, kissing the base of his neck.
murmurs, "Mmm... let me warm you up then."
Tsuna
says
.A.
Tsuna
says
W-wait, I said I need to prepare...
started trailing small kisses up the boy's neck. "...That can wait. <3"
Tsuna
says
aflksdffdsa--
Tsuna
says
No! D< I'll never get done if we do this!
wriggled out of Mukuro's hold again and turned around and started pushing the older boy towards the door.
Mukuro
says
DDDD: B-but..!
Tsuna
says
What, you can't even wait a couple of days?
Mukuro
says
I--
Mukuro
thinks
.....................
Mukuro
asks
... If I said no, will you let me continue? |D
rolled his eyes. "No. Now go on, shoo!"
Mukuro
says
... But I want to stay with you! ;A;
hesitated, and then sighed. "Don't make this harder than it already is... You'll see on Saturday?"
... pouts. :<
Tsuna
says
*tiredly* Please? =___=
Mukuro
asks
...... Could I at least have a kiss? ;_;
Tsuna
says
Okay. =w=
closed his eyes, leaned forward, and waited. <3
sighed again and leaned forward and lightly brushed his lips against Mukuro's.
smiled against the kiss and pulled Tsuna closer, deepening it.
's eyes widened in surprise when Mukuro pulled him over, then he screwed them shut when the kiss turned more intense.
started moving his hands down Tsuna's back when he felt no resistance from the other boy, pausing momentarily at the waistband of his pants.
shivered when he felt Mukuro' hands at his waist. He pulled away from the kiss and tried to get his breath back.
mumbled, "... You're not going to leave me alone, are you?"
chuckled, leaning his forehead against Tsuna's. "Do you really want me to?"
Tsuna
says
... I don't know. =_=
added insistently, "But you've been avoiding me. I missed you."
Mukuro
says
...Now you know how I feel. ;3;
Tsuna
says
E-eh?
Mukuro
says
You've been ignoring me for a while.
Tsuna
says
I have? D:
nods. -3-
looked down guiltily. So it *was* jealousy over Hayato.
Tsuna
says
You should have just told me instead of sulking about it..
Tsuna
says
... Sorry. You can stay if you want.
Mukuro
says
You wouldn't have done anything if I told you. -3-
Tsuna
says
You know I won't do it just for the sake of ignoring you.
Tsuna
says
I mean, if I was doing it inadvertently, if you'd told me...
trailed off.
smiled and pulled Tsuna back in for a kiss. "Well, it doesn't really matter now, does it? Since the problem's solved anyway. <3"
Tsuna
says
A-aa...
wondered what the older boy meant, and he would have asked, but he was being kissed again, and just as thoroughly as before.
led Tsuna over to the bed and pushed him onto it before he broke the kiss, smiling down at the smaller boy.
kissed him softly on the forehead and purred, "I love you."
flushed and tried to reply with the usual, but that purr... and the mismatched eyes looking directly at him.
felt weak and all-too warm and unable to draw breath all of a sudden.
shuddered and hid his face against the collar of Mukuro's shirt.
managed to spare enough of his wits to worry about the shopping he was supposed to do tonight, but--
felt Mukuro gently cradling his head with one hand, and he grudgingly admitted to himself that that could wait.
