Was he that... innocent? No... So why did he believe in that guy? Why did he expect that his love was returned in the same way? Why did he expect that this guy would understand? Why did he open himself to him? Oh... right... love. The last shred of hope, hope that he was worth something, of anything other than for his looks and body.
As he watches the guy walk away, he sits down on his couch, hands in his face as he takes a deep breath, reality is... He would never be enough... He would never be worthy of anything other than his look and body. Wasn't that what daddy said? That the only reason he was caught in the street was because he looked too good and was worth being used?
So... He remembers Bianchi sending another text about her going to Japan and that he should go there, at least she could provide a house and a place for him to stay, better than staying around Italy in that shit place. So he did, booking the flight, packing his things, and going. What he would do? What he was gonna change? Does he want to change? Yes...
No more love.
Be a whore, since his body is all that is worth... Be a complete and totally a whore, use it, work with it.
But most important... No more telling his past... That was disgusting after all, with Shamal's help changing his name, erasing his whole past, changing everything was easy. Watching the sky change colors in the plane he couldn't help other than feel the tight squeeze in his heart.
Happy birthday...
When he landed it was easy with the small connections of Bianchi and Shamal for him to settle down, find a small apartment, and then start working as a prostitute. His only requirement other than payment? Always use condoms. What happened to him? He was okay with anything and everything.
The price was different from what you wanted, yes sex was one, but if you actually wanted to have more sadistic pleasure, then it was another. For a while, Hayato even accepted to be sexually tortured, as far as it wasn't dismembering or permanent damage and you paid very well. That is how he ended up being on the dark side of the prostitute workers.
Did he regret it? No.
Was his self esteem fixed? Far away from it, but he was winning money, he was able to actually keep his mind clean and calm. He was enjoying sex, and that is honestly all that mattered. His clients were satisfied, he could keep living...
So why after having sex with one specific client it felt so... wrong? Why he felt that squeeze again? Why his heart was pounding loudly in his chest? Why was he... No... No love.
Hayato took that as a sign for him to work more, for him to actually fall more, he shouldn't, he wouldn't let himself fall in love again. He wouldn't let himself attach himself to anyone again. Every minute, every second... he would sleep with anyone who paid him, no rest, no time to stop.
But Hibari Kyoya kept returning... Hibari Kyoya kept... slowly... With his awkward kindness and coldness, breaking those walls. Hibari Kyoya...
Fuck... I fell... Fell so hard... In love with him... Mumbling the words as tears fell down.
He wasn't ready... So... he did what he does best. Drown himself in work, avoid Hibari... Because everything would be fine right? Hibari was cold, Hibari didn't have feelings for him. So it would be okay to avoid him. Also, Hibari Kyoya the Tenth Cloud Guardian of Vongola, could have anyone, so why... He was just a sex worker, there was no reason for Hibari to look for him again.
Be happy.
He may not know Hibari's past, but he knows one thing... There was no way, no fucking way, that Hibari Kyoya would want someone as disgusting as him. Who was only worth it for his look and body. There was no way.

AI-less Whumptober - Alt Prompt 5 - White Room Torture
@ailesswhumptober
As he opened his eyes, the Storm couldn't believe it, there was no color in that room, it was purely white, it also had some type of cushion on the walls, floor, and ceiling as to make it fluff, probably so people won't hit their head against the hard floor and wall, to bleed.
The bed seemed to be drilled into the floor so he couldn't lift it, as it was a box, all he could do was take off the mattress from the bed, and even then the box was also covered in cushions. In a corner, there lies a built-in bathroom with a sink over it, so minimize space, being the only hard thing in the whole room.
Even though it was metal, the whole thing was also white, the eerie silence as he looked at his clothes, also all white. Before he was captured, he made sure to get his rings off, especially the Vongola Storm Ring, and give it to Uri. So now he felt awkwardly naked without his rings, chains, or earrings.
How long did he pass out? Fuck, without a window and locked in a full white room, he knew exactly what type of torture was that and he knew... Gokudera Hayato knew how fucked he was.
Sensory deprivation, no colors, nothing to give a hint of day or night, he felt anxious, for someone who was often around with loud explosions, or any type of music, his brain was going to be under such a hard pressure. Since he was a child Gokudera couldn't live in pure silence, the silence reminded him of the sound of chains, the wet sound of a sweaty body behind him.
Oh fuck... Biting his lower lips, he knew exactly what he would face from now on till the moment of his rescue. If he was quite honest, he would prefer 100% to be in a cage beaten up than where he was right now. He would like, any other type of torture than this one.
As his breath starts to come out rushing, no air is kept inside of his lungs, clutching his hand over his chest. The panic wave grows steady as he falls over his knees, short and quickly breathes as the Storm closes his eyes.
Whimpers left his mouth as he shook and trembled, he was pretty sure it wasn't even a few minutes and he was already panicking, his whole body shook as his mind started to shatter. No... No... He wasn't ready to go back to that place... He wasn't ready to go back to that mental state.
Bitting his lower lips hard, as he tried to remember something good. Like his friends, or... He couldn't think of good things, as the color was slowly fading from everything. Shaking his head, trying to bring himself to be stable, he couldn't let this win over him. He was better than that!
He was Decimo Vongola's Right-Hand man! He... Was the Decimo Storm Guardian! He could handle that. He was a male adult, he could handle a bit of torture until he was rescued. Taking deep breaths as he tries to calm down the panic and the anxiety growing inside of him.
By instinct he moved his hand to the pockets of his pants to get a cigarette, but finding nothing in there, oh yeah... That was taken. Nothing to panic. Everything is okay... Everything is okay. Walking towards the bed and so lying down, looking at the ceiling.
No sounds, no smell, no reference of day and night, nothing to do, no color, just him and a white room. He could do this... He could... Who was he fooling? He couldn't do that. Maybe for a few hours, but soon he knew, he was going to go crazy, wanting to hurt himself, wanting to find a way to leave, crazy to do anything just to get out of that white room.
Closing his eyes as he tries to relax, not able to even see the dark, as there is a white lamp directly in his eyes, so when he closes his eyes he would still see white. The only way he thought was letting his arm fall over his eyes, that way projecting some shadow and so a bit of dark in his eyes.
That was the only relief he had from the white room, as he took a deep breath. Gokudera Hayato had a photographic memory, so he knew that his being taken was a really really really bad issue. As he carried a lot of high-value information as well, because of his position, so making him go crazy? Was the easiest way to get into his mind.
There was no way to project flames without his rings, so there was no way of him bringing color to that white room. As he bites his lower lip, it is in his best interest to try to keep his sanity, as best as he can in that white room.
As he starts to sing lowly, to himself so he can have something to hear in that quiet, silent room. Someone was going to find him... He needed to believe that and keep his mind focused on that. Ignoring the hallucinations he would see and hear, memories of when he was in a similar room like this when he was younger.
Yes... All he needed to do was hang in there, because differently from his younger self, now... Now he had a family that worried and cared about him, that was probably going crazy trying to find him. He just... Needed to hang in there...
"Hayato, there was a surprise ambush, and Haru died during evacuation." ((OOC: that's 11 words. TYL Verse. ))
Break my muse in 15 words or less.
@queenharumiura
Yeah, the paper is over there! Also, go find Bianchi for this sort of thing! What do you mean Ryohei broke the wall?! Say for him to go fix it! WHAT?! There were too many voices in the Storm's office. Honestly, since Tsuna died, Hayato had a hard time keeping everything under control. After all, yes he may be Vongola's Right-Hand man, but he wasn't the Sky.
The Hyper Intuition, Vongola's blood, the Sky flame, that friendly aura to gather all the guardians. That is something the Storm doesn't have, as he was working his ass off, people around him trying to get problems fixed one after another as someone tries to push through the thick of people in his office.
But, suddenly the office went quiet as everyone would open space for the other guardian to go meet Hayato. Although... it wasn't normal for any guardian to go there. "Hayato." He heard Takeshi's voice as he looked directly at the Rain, he didn't feel right. Something was terribly wrong.
EVERYONE OUT! He yelled, whatever the other was bringing, it was probably better if no one was there to see his reaction. As people fled the place and the last one closed the door, the Storm hung up the call and put his phone down. ... Speak.
"There was a surprise ambush, and Haru died during the evacuation. When I got there it was too late, I was able to bring her body back, and I dealt with what I could. But... HAYATO!"
He fell onto the floor, panting as he couldn't breathe, trying to pull out the tie, ripping the shirt but nothing he did was enough to open the way for air as he tried so hard to process the words that Takeshi said. Haru... Haru died?! No... That... No...
The air grew harder as he couldn't calm down, nothing was working and he eventually passed out from lack of air. Maybe it was for the best, or perhaps it was for worse, It was Takeshi who brought the Storm to a bed and then called Shamal and Bianchi as they would be better to be at his side.
AI-less Whumptober - Alt Prompt 4 - Zombies
@ailesswhumptober
When Sawada Tsunayoshi died, everyone knew that the Right Hand Man, wouldn't take that in a good way, Gokudera Hayato was soon overwhelmed with work and obviously a family to take care of. There were the Guardians as well to also make sure they would be okay.
But part of him died with the Sky Boss, after all, Tsuna was his best friend, the guy who helped him when everything seemed lost when he was a child. The guy who brought happiness and life to him after everything he went through while a kid in Italy.
It was with Hibari Kyoya's help that the Gokudera Hayato kept working, and keeping the Vongola as good as the Sky boss wanted, the Cloud not only kept the Storm alive but also helped him to move on from the grief. So when the skylark died? Everyone knew, that... He would take part in the Storm Guardian.
There was no life anymore in the storm. He was alive, but he wasn't.
Sure he kept working, keeping the wish of the Decimo Vongola Boss Sawada Tsunayoshi to reform the Mafia world or kill the Vongola. He kept doing it, keeping the guardians safe and protected.
But everyone who saw him would describe him as Zombie.
Alive, but totally dead. There was nothing alive in Gokudera Hayato's heart anymore, there were no feelings, no emotions, just... A broken man.
So when people heard that Hibari Kyoya died, they all knew what that meant. Because those who saw Gokudera when he was younger, knew him better, they all knew how much Hayato depended on the love and care that the Cloud gave to him.
They all knew how much Hayato's grief concerning their boss was bad and how reckless he would be without the love of Hibari. Without the Cloud nagging to him take breaks, eat, and actually rest. Forcing the Storm to take care of himself.
They all knew, and all the remaining guardians did their best to keep Hayato alive, even if it was looking like a zombie. After all, they couldn't lose him as well, no matter how much it hurt them to see the Storm losing his shining eyes, and his happiness, They couldn't handle losing the Right-Hand man.
So yes, no matter how much of a Zombie Gokudera Hayato was, they needed him, and they all knew, how hurt the Right-Hand Man and Storm Guardian were. How much he longed to be with his boss and his boyfriend, but... He couldn't die.
AI-less Whumptober - Day 5 - Overstimulation, migraines
@ailesswhumptober
His head was exploding, it's been a while since the Storm felt like that, waking up he barely opened his eyes, before closing it quickly and shoving the pillow over his head. He could hear it... The quiet sound of buzzing coming from his computer.
He could hear the sound of steps outside his room, he was pretty sure it wasn't that close. Fuck he could even hear the sound of whatever they were talking outside! That was the worst he had felt in a while, the migraines that he always had were nothing compared to that, Gokudera Hayato knew exactly what that meant, and he wasn't looking forward to that.
Slowly breathing, as the sound of his own breath was loud, he didn't know what to do right now, they had sensory deprivation chambers down, but that meant going out and actually walking there. He didn't want to open his eyes, even less walking around his room, he couldn't use his phone as it was also too bright.
So all he could do was curl in his bed, covering his head with the pillow and praying it would soon stop. But there was no such luck as his door opened with a bang.
"TACO-HEAD! GET OUT OF BED!"
He shook and actually whimpered, it couldn't be worse, as the Storm started to shake and tremble, everything was back to 10000% again, the sudden light coming into his eyes from Ryohei taking the pillow, the sudden sound of crashing that the door was doing. The storm was now clawing at his ears, closing his eyes tightly, screaming as he kept hurting his ears to make the sound stop.
Ryohei frowned at that, he might not be the smartest but one thing he knew was, that that wasn't normal and in situations like this there was only one thing he could do, run away from where he was as he looked for help.
Hayato was still clawing at his ears, hoping that would stop the noises, the pounding in his head.
"See! I told you! That is not normal to extreme!"
As Ryohei was back to being as loud again, the storm just clawed more at his ears, now drawing blood from it. Not only that but also clawing at his clothes, everything was too much, as he just wanted to stop it.
"Shut up." That was a more quiet voice, but even so, it was still too loud for Hayato. "Roll." The sound of a box being opened and then a soft "Kuuu?" That was the last thing that Gokudera could hear before he was trapped in a dark sphere.
The storm tried to open his eyes, but he couldn't see anything. There was no more sound, which felt weird yet, so relaxing at the same time. As he takes a deep breath and exhales it slowly, sitting down as he moves the least possible.
He wasn't feeling, hearing, or seeing anything, just the pure darkness and the complete silence. That felt like heaven, as he lay down and relaxed completely. In a few moments though, he could feel the sphere being undone and his body inside one of the sensory deprivation chambers, as he now could close his eyes again.
Later he would have to worry about thanking Ryohei for finding him, even though he made it worse, but he did help by bringing Hibari. So he would need to worry about that later. Taking off his clothes and then grabbing the earplugs, the capsule was closed as he let himself pass out.
After all, for more than Hayato was in a sensory deprivation chamber, his head was still pounding from the migraine. But that, was the least of his problems, after all, migraines were normal for his mind. The drawback of photographic memory, his head is always hurting from the memories.

AI-less Whumptober - Alt Prompt 1 - Pistol Whipped
@ailesswhumptober
@whiskeysmulti added some part of it.
He was tired, fuck, if anything Hayato was exhausted. Tsuna was dead, and his workload doubled since he was the Second-in-Command of the Vongola. No matter if Hibari was helping more, or if he didn't have to deal with Lambo being a brat, glad that Yamamoto was also helping with the paperwork, Mukuro was even being nice and doing the work quickly so no one was exactly drowning in work.
But the Storm was still exhausted, he needed to blow some of the stress as he took a mission and went with it. What he didn't expect was the difficulty of it, normally that type of mission - Killing a whole family - was dealt with more care and far more cautious, even bringing someone as back up so... He was toasted.
I need help! The storm yelled into his phone as he was using the bone shields to avoid the gun's shot and using his own bombs to destroy the people shooting at him, dodging, shooting, exploding, dodging, exploding, honestly, it was a repetitive dance, over and over again.
But for more than he was winning, what he didn't see was an enemy sneaking behind him, and using the back of the pistol to whip against the back of his neck. When he felt the shock of the hard metal hitting him it was too late.
Gokudera's dead so Uri ran off with the rest of the Sistema and gave it to Yamamoto before her own box was sealed because Uri trusted him with her owner's weapon, she wouldn't let it fall into enemy hands.
Yamamoto Takeshi holds the weapon box, as he looks around, not seeing his lover. The box in his hand said only one thing. Yamamoto Takeshi was late, very very late. But now, people would find out why no one tried to test Yamamoto's calm nature.
Because if his thoughts about his lover being dead were true? Hell would fall onto Earth, and everyone would figure out what a truly Natural Born Hitman was able to do.
Soooo, yeah the original drabble was in my original Hayato's muse blog. It was very very angst as well using an old relationship that he had... Anyway, when I moved to this blog I wanted to write a second part because I had a mini brainstorm with Shu (@nogoodvongoladecimo) about how to finish this and as well end up in a more fluffy/cute way? 7 years later here I'm...
Also please if you read this and see English errors, weird phrasing, or weird pacing, please take into consideration that I wrote this between the 7 years. I did fix and tried to make connections as best as I could.
Basically, each icon is a space I stopped and returned to the next time, and so on... Anyway, enjoy xD.
Days passed... Months passed... and nothing happened... nothing changed...
With a sigh the storm sat down on the hospital chair, looking at the papers in his hand.Ā You know idiot? I'm glad that Mukuro and Hibari are helping to go on the missions and doing the paperwork, but I miss being on the field sometimes...Ā With a sigh, he put down the papers and so looking at Yamamoto.
But, I can't ask it, since I need to protect Decimo while he doesn't remember and stay here to protect you too since you were a Vongola guardian after all... I wonder how much time passed since you got like this?Ā Gokudera was tired, he got used to talking with the walls, it was safe since it was Vongola Hospital and only the Vongola was authorized to be there also protected with mist illusions so normal enemies needed to break it, but he doubted someone could since it was Mukuro who did it.
With another sigh he rested his back on the chair as he looked at the ceiling, he was doing everything that was called, passed the days with Tsuna protecting him and being his friend then going to his home or sometimes going to Vongola's hideout to help things there, after all, he was getting bored to only look Yamamoto sleeping - or what he thought that was sleeping - paperwork always help.
How much time passed?Ā
One day he asked Shamal if it was fine for him to be out for one night, it was only to kill some idiots from another family that was making too much noise around - it was a simple mission after all - and he needed it, so on this night the storm could not tell how much happiness he felt...
The blood splashing around him, the body flying with the dynamites and explosion, how much he missed doing it, how much he missed smelling the blood but was on this night that he remembered, the first time that he went on a mission with Yamamoto.
Was supposed to be something simple too, but even so, the storm guardian wanted to go with the rain guardian, Gokudera was scared... something was scaring him and his mind was right to be. When Takeshi killed someone was the first time Hayato saw him so happy, and he got terrified of what the swordsman turned.
And on this day he remembered that he never left Yamamoto alone in missions again - at least the ones that were supposed to kill too many people - because he always felt so insecure and scared. Scared that he was losing him, it was a little after this mission that Gokudera proposed theĀ sex and workĀ thing for him.
Why... why I didn't tell you what I really felt?
"And then, Kyoko-chan was saying that she loves me."Ā The storm could see Tsuna's happy face as they were returning to the Decimo's house, he was glad that Kyoko was being so understanding and helping him, was a shock to her to know that her husband lost his memory, but then after the shock, the woman helped as she could.
Oh, that is good to know. So you're going to ----- marry her?Ā He cut himself and as well completed the phrase in his mind, it was really hard for Gokudera to remember that he could not say things like that so casually.Ā So you're going to date her?Ā He continued to talk changing the meaning of his phrase it was what he always did when things like that happened.
"Yes!"Ā If he had something to be happy was to see that his boss was fine and happy, without remembering the past and the fights...Ā Well, that is good to know. Here is where I let you Sawada-san.Ā They stopped in front of Sawada's Home, that was something so normal that he already didn't know why he always got himself thinking of how he got there so quickly.Ā "Ne... Gokudera-kun?"
Hm?
"You know something about me that I forgot... right?"
With a sigh, he had to change his face for a less happy, that was always like this.Ā Even if I know, I can't say. I already told it a lot of times...
"But..."
I know, but I can't. Just stay inside and don't be out without me, right? This is the only favor that I asked you.
"I know that... and I will do what you asked... Will have someday that you will say to me what you know?"
Yes.Ā Even if he was not sure when he was going to say all the past memories.
"Okay, good night Gokudera-kun."
He waved his hand as he saw the man get inside the home, relaxing his shoulder, the storm moved around to see if everything was fine, it was because Mukuro helped with doing illusions and protection on the home that he didn't have to do a lot of things.
Gokudera started to walk towards his own home again, it was time to take a shower and then go to the hideout for a few minutes pick some papers, and then go to the hospital... that was what he was going to do when he heard his phone ringing, it was rare for him.
He guessed that was only Mukuro going to annoy him or something, so he ignored it, but the second and the third time, made him grabbed his phone annoyed, without seeing who that was.
What the hell do you want?!
"Huh?! That is the way you talk with me brat?"
Oh... Shamal, I thought that was Mukuro.
"Whatever, come here now."Ā The storm was really sure that Shamal wished to yell theĀ "now"Ā word, but that could be only his imagination.
I will be there in 2 hours, why ne----
"Yamamoto is awake."
Wh----WHAT?!Ā That was not supposed to be a yelling, but he can't deny that he was pretty happy with the news.Ā It has been so long that I don't remember how was to be really happy...
"Just come here now I will explain later."Ā And so the doctor hung on his face, Gokudera didn't have to wait another minute to start running towards the hospital, he didn't care about a shower or changing the clothes he was wearing all day, he just needed to be there now...
I want to see the idiot's face, hear his laugh... see his smile... that is all I want now...
When he finally was near the other room he stopped at the door opening it pretty rude, only to see the other sitting on the bed smiling.Ā "Yo."Ā The storm was really tired as he fell on his knees and started to cry, every single tear that he had not allowed to fall, now falling on his eyes. He could hear the rain guardian asking him if he was alright and as well a sound of pain as Gokudera deduced that Yamamoto tried to move out of the bed.
So to not cause any more pain in Yamamoto, he brings himself to stand up and walks towards the swordsman, sitting on the bed and passing his arms around the rain's waist, letting his forehead rest on the otherās shoulders only to cry more. The storm cried all that he was holding for so long.Ā "Calm down..."Ā Gokudera could feel the hand on his back rubbing and petting him.
I regretted... every day, for not to let the words come out of my lips when you said it to me... I regretted it every day... But I will not let this happen again... I don't want to feel like this again...
The last time he remembered to cry this much was when he found out that his mother died... and now he was crying about his sister's death and all the pain he had to suffer so far...
He lost how much time he spent crying until he felt calm and relief, but Hayato let himself be there for a little longer, all the time Yamamoto only stayed there rubbing his back, caressing his hair and so saying words likeĀ calm down, that is fine now, I'm here.Ā You know... I regret the time I said that I didn't love you, I regret every single time that I said that I was never going to love you... When I found out what happened to you I broke down... I badly broke down... Shamal put me in a coma because he was scared that I was going to do something bad...
Then when everything was a little better and he woke up me, he asked me 3 things... that I really wished not to do, but... I thought that I had to be strong and do... Survive and stay alive... because that was what I learned with the time we fought against Varia... Survive...
Every day was a pain, every day I needed to see you sleeping, every day I needed to be here only watching and not able to do anything to help... Remember and so regret... Every day was so lonely...
He moved a little to see Takeshi's face for a little, before placing a gentle kiss on his lips, seeing the shock because he probably didn't understand what he was feeling right now.Ā I love you. I really love you and I'm really sorry for what I did... I ---Ā He was near to cry again because he never thought of what Yamamoto could feel towards him after so many years, but then he felt the arms around his shoulders and gently pulling him to a kiss.
A lovely and slow kiss, on the start Gokudera was shocked but... he decided to answer the kiss, in the same way with the same feeling, he missed him, how Hayato missed Takeshi's kisses... His arms around him, his warmth, he felt the tears rolling in his eyes.
They stopped kissing after a few seconds, after all, Yamamoto was still recovering and well it was already too much time that Gokudera stayed in this position, moving to sit on the chair near the bed.Ā "I love you too... I thought that Hayato was going to reject me again if I said it for you after so many years... I was really happy when you asked that we build aĀ relationshipĀ based only on work and sex since this means that I was able to be with you and do things with you... but I'm really happy to know that Hayato loves me back."
Gokudera could not help but smile, he was feeling so happy that he was able to talk to him again... he really wished that was not a dream... He would be really sad if it was a dream and he had to wake up...
He could hear a knock and so looked to the door,Ā "For more than I'm glad to see both fine, Yamamoto you need to sleep a little more and rest for a few days till you can leave the hospital. Hayato I need to talk with you."
Gokudera froze, he didn't wish to be away from Takeshi right now, but the smile did him stand up and before he goes he felt a hand on his wrist so he turned to Yamamoto and moved a little closer only to feel a kiss on his lips.Ā "I will be waiting for you."Ā And so another kiss, he smiled as he walked towards Shamal and the doctor's room.
Being called to talk with me, only means bad things... He complains as he is now in the doctorās room, sitting in a chair and so looking for Shamal. The storm was not sure of why he was called but watching the perv doctor's face was giving him a clue.Ā āItās not this bad brat. Just he stayed for a long time in bed, Iām surprised that he can move his arms like he did right now or just move this much.ā
What do you mean? The storm guardian sighs as he hears Shamal says.Ā āIām saying that he will need a lot of time in recuperation also to get back all his physicalĀ strength and as well his movement in a perfect state again. Meaning he will stay here for a few months and even one year to be back again. So myĀ recommendationĀ is not to let anyone know that he is awake.ā
I will take care of this but... I canāt be with Decimo and with Yamamoto so I guess... I will keep doing what I was doing before. I will be with Decimo during the mornings and afternoons and come back here during the nights. Gokudera was tired of doing it, after all, it was pretty annoying and to be honest, he didnāt have time for himself, it was a miracle that he was still fine.
āI donāt mind but... you will need to explain this to him.ā
So annoying, let it to me. If something bad happens just call me and I will leave Decimo at his home or call Hibari, and come here. Right?
āFine. Now go, go, I donāt want to stay near man this night.ā
Gokudera sighed again as he heard those words, getting out of the room and walking to the rain guardian, obvious that he still needed to go to his own home and take a shower as well as change clothes but for now... nothing this would matter as all that he wanted was pass the rest of the night with Yamamoto.
You know... You could stay in the hospital for a little longer. Mukuro and Hibari said that they donāt care if you rest a little more. He sighs as he is walking with Yamamoto out of the hospital, Gokudera is still too worried about the otherās health. It had only been half of a year and the rain was getting out while Shamal said that was going to take one year.
āMaa maa... Iām fine. I have my physical functions again all that I need is to train to get my strength back and I wonāt have this here.ā He says with a smiling face. Fine I will call Squalo, he will put something in your head. Gokudera says a bit annoyed as he looks at Yamamoto waving his hand in desperation.Ā
āI promise I wonāt overdo myself and rest when I feel tired but donāt call him.ā Because he is sure that Squalo is going to make him train till he can and rest all the rest as well yell at his ear if he tries to overdo - which he is probably going to do while no one is seeing.
Too late, I said for Shamal call him since I really doubt you will fulfill your words. The storm says as he gets inside the car and waits for Yamamoto be inside to start to drive, the storm hates to drive but he isnāt going to let Yamamoto drive since the other just get out of the hospital. And so he is going to drive towards his home.Ā
Tomorrow Lambo, I-Pin, and Fuuta are going to make company to Decimo since they are going to an amusement park and then tomorrow we go to your home and I help you clean it. Since the house was empty until now.
Oh, and Decimo said that this weekend there is going to be a Matsuri and he called Kyoko, Haru, me, and you to go there with him. Gokudera says as he pays attention as he drives.Ā āOh, a Matsuri huh? Sounds fun and brings me good memories.ā The storm smiled as he heard the answer. Me too, a lot of good memories.
He thinks as he pays attention in driving. Oh, also theĀ recommendationĀ of Shamal is still to not move too much or use too much strength, but he didnāt say anything about eating or drinking so I think youāre free from his insane diet. Gokudera comments as he chuckles remembering the past months and the practice the other had with getting his physical functions back.
As they were walking in the Matsuri, everyone was having fun, It was good to see Kyoko and Tsuna walking together as Haru, Lambo, and I-Pin were having fun in the games shops. Meanwhile, Hayato was helping Takeshi walk around, if there was something he missed was that peace and calm they had. The laugh and fun... That brought him so many memories... As he smiles and walks with the tallest.
As the fireworks started to explode, the group was alone on a hill watching it together, it was the first time since the accident that everyone was there. After Takeshi was able to move more freely he started to company Tsuna and Hayato outings so they could bring more normal memories back to the Sky, but even so, that wasnāt enough.
But still, they were enjoying the fireworks together when both men looked scared in the direction of Tsuna who had fallen to his knees and was holding his head tight. Sawada-san! As Hayato goes quickly in front of him, holding his shoulders and trying to grab his attention. Hey, Sawada-san look at me! Hayato was truly starting to panic since the Skyās breathing was quick and he was panting his face frowning in pain.
Yet as soon as the sounds of fireworks were gone only them were there. Tsuna, still panting looked at Hayato's worried face, with a half-smile. āIām sorry... For everything... I... You... Gokudera-kun, Iām sorry for making you suffer... Kyoko, my lovely and beautiful wife... Iām sorry.ā
Hayato couldnāt help but look very confused at Tsunaās words. As Takeshi goes next to him and pulls him slightly.
Tsuna on the other hand just looked between the two guardians, still holding his head.Ā āThank you both for not giving up on me... Thank you Gokudera-kun for giving me as normal possible life I could have while I didnāt have my memories...ā
Hayato was shaken, he never expected that Tsunaās memory would return, by this point everyone was convinced that he would never remember then, so... That... That was a big shock.
But for the Storm? He couldnāt be happier as he held Takeshi and cried, soon Tsuna also held both, just relief that his two best friends were alive and well. Of course, they couldnāt forget Bianchi who lost her life to protect both but, she was the hero, saving both. And that... That was everything for Hayato.
If Hayato went the next day to visit her grave and let something there for her, or if he returned there every week to thank her, that... That was another detail.
((This is set in the TYL timeline- before Tsuna died, because... yes. See, I can totally be kind to Dera. Submitting this one a bit early for his birthday. ))

Haru has woken up earlier than usual to get breakfast started of some of Deraās favorites. He wasnāt one to sleep for very long, and he was probably going to want to get right back to work as soon as he woke upālike the workaholic he was. Does she still make ādesk-chanā jokes even now? Of course, do you know how much more time he spends with her than his own wife? Itās understandable, given his position and rank. It was something she already accepted ages ago, so she didnāt get angry with it, but she was sometimes disappointed.
He was a busy man, and she did her best to support him. She was setting the table when he walked out of the bedroom. āGood morning, Hayato. Have some breakfast before you even think about getting work done.ā If you think she wonāt try to lock the door to your office to ensure you eat something firstāyouāre wrong. āHaru is making all of your favorites today for your birthday. So, youāll have something to look forward to all day.ā She walks back into the kitchen to check back on some things that are still cooking in the kitchen. If he was staying inside all day, then he could enjoy lunch at home. If he had to go out, she could prepare a bento for him.
That was the intent anyways.
After making sure everything was okay, she sits at the dinning table as well. Haru always thought that food tasted better with company, and so she always made it a point to share meals together whenever possible. āHaru hopes you like it. While Haru always puts love in everything she cooks, she put extra love in today,ā she giggles. One of Haruās love languages was to cook meals for people, so she always liked to make something for her loved ones. So, it was obvious that she was putting in a lot of effort to make sure to make him all of his favorites today.
She was sure that the others would like to see him in person today to give him their happy birthday wishes as well, āHaru will give you your gift later tonight. She also plans on preparing a small cake for you.ā Of course, a candle will be included. Haru will always insist on the blowing out candles tradition! The gift is something that called in a few favors for to get it complete. There are some perks to knowing people and Gianini was willing to take on the challenge of customizing a watch. She got Bianchiās input on how to design it since she felt that his older sister understood his aesthetics.
Gianini helped with designing the functionality of the watch, where it could house a small folding utility blade that can be useful in emergency situations. It also had a function where if you pressed on one of the skull motifs, it could record messages. Haru personally found voice memos to be very useful for when she went shopping, so surely heād find some use for it. He may not need to record a reminder with how good his memory was, but who knows? Maybe heāll have a use for recording conversations with people.
The final special feature was that there was a button he could push to change the display to show a GPS. With how worried he gets often, she figured it may help him feel at ease to have a way to track where Haru was. The watch could track via GPS where the transmitter was, which was housed in one of the necklaces that Gokudera has given her years ago. It was her favorite one to wear. It would ease him of some worries, and on the off chance she ever gets kidnappedāthen heāll know where she is. Convenient, isnāt it?
āHaruās excited to give you your gift, so look forward to it~ Happy Birthday, I love you.ā
When Hayato woke up he looked at his side, of course, she was already out for the day, well it was a good thing as it gave him time to think. Mom... He enjoyed a few minutes of silence, thinking how much his mother would have enjoyed being there, to celebrate with him.
But as well, as how bad his life turned to be when he figured that she was dead. There was something about his birthday that always made him think, think about how his life turned out to be. How different it was as the years went.
If there was something that was out of expected was... Haru.
She is my light, she is my start.
A small smile appeared on his lips as he thought about Haru, the woman was annoying at first, but she grew on him. He couldn't think of a life without Haru now.
Not because of what she does, but because of the love he feels for her is so pure and so good. He really just wishes her well-being, and nothing else. He gets up as he is pretty sure the woman is there waiting. Mom... I know... You would love her. He keeps smiling and changing and doing things to get ready for the day.
He was not wearing any suit as he just dressed like his normal teen would be, jeans, shirts, and a jacket as well as chains and collars, smiling as he went to where the woman was and talked about breakfast. If there was someone who he wanted to be with all day... It was Haru.
As the storm smiles and holds her from behind in a nice hug, letting his head rest over her head and holding him in his arms. You are going to help me, you see I want to spend the day with a marvelous woman who nagged my whole life about me taking care of myself. Do you know where I can find said Ahoona? As he teases and chuckles about how he phrased it.
You know Haru? Today I want to spend with you and no one else. Sure I know, I know the others won't mind if I did it. After all, what is the best way to spend it other than being with my wife? So how about we just take a really easy day today? Enjoying movies at home and playing games?
And sure gifts would be nice and he would truly appreciate the effort of her to ease his anxiety and worry about where she is with the GPS, but his major gift was just that day, a memory that would never fade in him. Just spending it with the person he loves and cares. With Haru.
