ILU – Spanner27

The X Burner was perfectly synchronized. Tsuna could see through the contacts that it was time to fire, and blasted Iris and her muscle subordinates, and that Gingerbread doll. Not to mention the entire room (and some other rooms in his path). The contacts worked perfectly, and Tsuna allowed himself a quick smile of victory before something crossed his eyes.

"Good job!" The words crossed the contacts, and he could hear Spanner's voice in his connected headphones. "ILU!"

"… Spanner."

The blonde mechanic, already awed by the power of the X Burner, turned to Tsuna's voice. "Yeah?"

"Take that part out."

"What?"

"I don't need you complimenting me every time I use the X Burner!" Tsuna said, embarrassed. "Take that silly message out."

"B-but!" Spanner objected, hopping up to his knees despite his injuries. "I thought it would be nice…" He pouted a little, and tried to look at Tsuna with his best puppy dog eyes. Perhaps the blood trickling from his body would make him seem extra pathetic and he'd get his way.

Tsuna shook his head and turned away. "No, take it out. If you want me to hear those words, say them yourself."

Spanner watched as Tsuna walked over to the communication device that Irie's voice was coming from and start demanding the location of the lab and the machine. Spanner just smiled and when Tsuna came over to help dress his wounds, Spanner couldn't help but ignore the pain and throw his arms around the boy.

"Cool!" He exclaimed, a large smile on his face. "Good job, Vongola! I love you!"

"Hiiiii…." Tsuna quivered in shock, his face a bright red as Spanner tightened his grip.
