Let's Prove Them Wrong

Part 3

"I'm not laughing I'm just saying that you should really think about taking out a library book and reading it for pleasure. It won't burn your retinas off when you read at night."

Reborn and Tsuna had decided to go to bed early that night since both of them were tired from running around. At least Tsuna was. Reborn just didn't want to stay up late since he wasn't that close with Nana yet and it would be awkward. The two slept in the same room but Reborn had a small mat pushed into the corner he used since he actually didn't like sleeping alone. His mother usually slept in the same bed as him from how she used to have nightmares a lot so he got used to sleeping next to her to calm her down. But now he felt uncomfortable sleeping in a room of his own so he moved into Tsuna's room after explaining it to Nana. Tsuna didn't need to know of it though since he kind of accepted that Reborn would be sleeping in his room after the first night.

Of course, there was the problem that Tsuna was a restless sleeper and flopped around a lot. Reborn slept lightly and with his eyes open since he had to wake up and calm his mother down quickly. Hearing the bed squeak and shift every time Tsuna moved woke him up since he always attributed that to nightmares so it was quite annoying to wake up in the middle of the night to nothing. He had no idea how to even approach Tsuna to tell him to tone it down since it was really hard to control how much you move when you sleep.

So when Reborn told Tsuna about it, Tsuna came up with the great idea that they sleep in the same bed so his flopping was controlled by Reborn taking up half the bed. It worked but it still wasn't exactly the best since Reborn was clingy. It led to very awkward conversations in the morning when one had to get out but was stuck by the wall since the bed was pushed into a corner.

What was great about the two sleeping in the same bed though was that they were able to talk about a lot since sleeping with somebody for a long time makes you trust them. Tsuna felt that happening to him as a few months flew by and he ended up getting a crush on the Italian exchange student.

He didn't even know where it came from, all of a sudden whenever Reborn walked into a room, Tsuna noticed him. The way he smirked when he was amused, how he messed with his hair whenever he talked a lot, how Reborn had a small birth mark under his eye that he would rub when he was tired, or how whenever he was mad, Reborn would stand up straighter, lock his jaw and his shoulders so he looked taller than he already was. Tsuna started noticing these things and one little voice in the back of his head saying, 'he's the person I want to spend time with.' Tsuna knew he was in too deep but he was in so deep he didn't even care anymore. It probably wasn't going to last, the crush, since the two had only known each other for a short time but Tsuna didn't really care right now.

He was the one that got to wake up and see the person he loved sleeping next to him. Maybe it wasn't love, maybe it was. All he knew was that it was something special he didn't want to mess up by confessing. So he kept it to himself as long as he could.

It worked. For like another month.

On Monday before school, Reborn and Tsuna had to go in early to help a teacher with something, honestly Reborn didn't know what he was doing but he heard from Tsuna that he needed to help him help a teacher so he was rolling with it. He got up at his usual time but had to wake Tsuna up at this time too so he was at least moving by the time Reborn was done getting himself ready.

They somehow made it to the school on time, the school's self-titled leader Hibari Kyoya sitting outside the gate already. He was also nicknamed a demon from how he fought constantly and ruthlessly against anybody that hurt his precious school. Hibari smirked at them as they walked by, making Tsuna shift so Reborn was the one passing Hibari instead of him.
