N/A: I've been kinda busy the past few weeks. I've been scanning doujinshi, acting as a proofreader for a scanlation group, and doing lots of drawings. By the way, I accidently said few chapters for the past, I really only meant 2, I wonder why I said such a silly thing.
Chapter 5 has more flashbacks and movies
Tsuna knew Reborn was up to something, and he knew very well what it was about. It had to do with Fong, since the last attempt in pairing them together had failed. The dinner get-together didn't give them much of a chance to talk, as Fong's attention had been pulled away by someone else almost every second.
Of course, the Chinese man was oblivious to the whole thing.
"Oh, Tsuna, you're early."
This time it was at the movies.
Tsuna's eyes took in Fong's appearance. The other had decided to come in a long blue robe with white linings and his standard baggy white pants. Since tonight was colder than usual, Fong had a dark blue scarf wrapped around his shoulders. Luckily, it wasn't chilly enough to start snowing, but Tsuna knew it wouldn't be much longer in this type of season. The brunet had just put on a simple jacket to cover his clothes underneath and had his hands covered in white mittens with the number twenty-seven sown on top. Glancing around the area, he sighed. They were alone again. It was probably another plot from Reborn; he should have expected so. Oh, well. "I could say the same for you. Reborn told me to come here for another group gathering."
They were currently standing in front of the theater, waiting for the rest of the group to arrive. The lights from the building were shining brightly and the screens at the top continued to flash different movies, posters, and times. He blushed slightly at the fact that they were alone together, even if it was just for a little while.
Fong noticed the red tint and stepped closer. "You alright? You're red again. Are you cold?"
Tsuna shook his head rapidly. "N-No, that's not it."
"Well, alright then. Oh, that reminds me. We never did finish our conversation three months ago. You know, at the restaurant." Fong stepped closer, his hands hidden within his sleeves and smiled softly, tilting his head to the side. People passed by them, none of them sparing a glance towards the duo. Couples were walking around, hands together, and were giggling to each other, while large groups of friends were talking rambunctiously and laughing. "I'd like to meet up with you and talk when no one else is around. Should we trade phone numbers?"
The brunet blushed at that. He really didn't expect such a thing. Fong was really trying to talk to him and oh, his poor heart wouldn't stop pounding within his chest in happiness. It was beating so hard that it actually hurt, but he didn't mind the pain. But should he really let this happen-let Fong get closer? He peered around the area cautiously again, trying to see if Reborn was within the area but didn't see anyone. 'Well, it couldn't hurt…' Tsuna reached forward, taking Fong by the arm and started pushing him aside, dragging the taller man down the walkway. "I have a better idea. We can go a café right now."
Fong had no idea how much courage it took for Tsuna to say that without stuttering or collapsing to the ground in embarrassment. The older man looked surprised by such a reaction, not sure on what to do, but allowed himself to get pulled along. "Hey. Wait, Tsuna. We're supposed to wait up for the others."
"It's fine. They can wait for a little bit for us. The movie doesn't start in another hour, anyway."
"Wait… What?" At that, Fong stopped moving. They slowed down into an intersection of a street, an area where people could call for a taxi, with others passing by around them. It was much more crowded than the theater and louder with the honking and roaring motors of cars.
Tsuna glanced back at the other man, all a while blushing. He shivered at the way Fong was curiously looking at him. Oh, he had it bad. "Reborn has been messing with us. We're all pawns in his little game."
Right after Tsuna said that, Fong sighed. His shoulders slumped and he closed his eyes. "I should have known. I had my suspicions from the beginning at the way Reborn would try to nudge us together, but I didn't act on it since he was still letting me meet you."
"You never questioned him?"
"There was no need to. As long as it wasn't dangerous, I don't mind going along with his games." Fong shook his head, his braid flipping back and forth at that, and started walking, keeping Tsuna at his side. His scarf fluttered behind him and he pushed a few bangs out of his face when the wind blew. Tsuna didn't bother with his own when they slapped him, mesmerized by the older man's gorgeous features. "Maybe I should stop following along with his schemes…"
"Maybe… I would, but Reborn is quite challenging to outfox."
"Oh?" Fong blinked his eyes then smiled brightly, his entire face lightening up. "Well then, let's do something he would never expect. Taxi!" Suddenly shouting into the street, Fong tried to catch the attention of a cab driver. Tsuna jumped at the abrupt sound and dubiously stared at the other. A yellow taxi pulled up in front of them and Fong turned around, holding out his hand, waiting for Tsuna to grab onto it. "Come on. Let's go."
Tsuna stared at the hand and slowly reached out, taking its hold and smiled, his cheeks slowly reddening. "Okay, Fong." He felt himself getting pulled into the vehicle, unable to contain his rosiness as it grew darker with each passing second. He was finally all alone with Fong, his crush, and there was no one to interrupt them. Oh, how very happy he was. He would feel his chest swelling up at the thought. To avoid the possibility of doing something stupid, he stared out the window, watching as the world went by, but even that didn't help his constant fidgeting.
"Tsuna, are you okay?" The older man leaned forward so he could see the brunet's expression better. However, all he managed to see was the reflection of the window. "You look a little worried about something. Are you regretting in leaving the meeting spot?"
Glancing over, Tsuna rapidly shook his head once more. "No, everything is perfectly fine. I'm actually quite happy."
"Good, I'm glad to hear that. Oh! Before we forget, let's trade phone numbers."
"Right."
Months quickly passed by, and the two got closer with each passing day. They went out together more often without anyone else next to them, almost to the point of seeing each other every day. Every now and then, they would stay over at the other's place without a care. A year later, they were officially best friends, never straying too far from each other and always sharing any gossip or secret that they had come across.
Then things started to fall and crumble when Fong started getting girlfriends. At first, Tsuna didn't mind, saying nothing about the whole subject, and kept in touch as much as possible. Eventually, however, the dates and girlfriends started to get in the way with his time together with Fong. He spent less moments with the Chinese man and before Tsuna realized it, he was canceling their meetings. He kept telling himself that this was for the best. That this would help him detach from his crush… no, love. The person he loved. And that was what he kept repeating inside over and over again for the next couple years.
Also, for those interest, you can see my story processes and any future projects here. The only ones that can comment are registered LJ users. Also, I got rid of the Q&A page for this since most of you have the same questions.
And for those that like to know, I've been working on a G27 picture. It's almost done now. Link here. Tell me what you think about it. I'll be happy to know!
