There's no R-18 stuff, but there are mentions of implied sex, I guess. Gotta be safe :I
001 / Introduction
"Well of course my mum thinks you're strange, Mukuro! I mean, who would say 'Hi, I'm Rokudo Mukuro, and I want to possess your son's body' as their first impression?"
002 / Love
"Even after ten years, my feelings haven't changed, Vongola; I still hate the mafia, and I still love you."
003 / Light + 004 / Dark
It's only when it's dark that you notice the light – maybe that's why Tsuna stands out so much to Mukuro.
005 / Seeking Solace
Tsuna thinks it mildly cute when he wakes up and finds Mukuro's arms clinging stubbornly around his waist, and the soft murmur of Mukuro's breath along his neck that just makes him want to stay in those protective arms and snuggle closer to forget all the bad things that ever happened.
006 / Break Away
"Abandon all your insecurities, your inhibitions, Vongola – come with me."
007 / Heaven
Whenever Tsuna says that Mukuro is delirious when he describes Tsuna as 'Heaven', Mukuro always counters with, "You can't experience Heaven without experiencing Hell, Tsunayoshi…and I've been through Hell six times."
008 / Innocence
Seeing that damned smiling face radiating innocence infuriates Mukuro so much because it forces him to acknowledge how tainted his hands are with crimes.
009 / Drive
All that's driving him to get out of that prison is that he must return to Tsuna.
010 / Breathe Again
And when he is finally out of the Vindice prison, for the first time in months, Mukuro feels as though he can breathe again.
011 / Memory
As Mukuro approaches the coffin marked with X, he can feel the faint traces of pained memories flowing back, but he doesn't want to face them, so he briskly turns back to the safety of his illusions.
012 / Insanity
Tsuna knows that this is insane, but he can barely utter a protest as he feels Mukuro's fingers dance teasingly across his bare chest.
013 / Misfortune
Sometimes Tsuna wonders if meeting Mukuro was actually a misfortune.
014 / Smile
Mukuro is simply greedy for that smile.
015 / Silence
Tsuna wasn't any mind reader but with Mukuro, they didn't always need to communicate with words.
016 / Questioning
"Do you love me, Tsunayoshi?"
017 / Blood
It somewhat bothers Mukuro that even after all that bloodshed, Tsuna can still retain his innocence.
018 / Rainbow
It frustrates Mukuro that that Arcobaleno has stayed with Tsuna longer than he has.
019 / Gray
How ironic is it that the man who leads the mafia, and the man who despises it, has stood side by side for ten years, greying the fine lines between enemies and lovers.
020 / Fortitude
Both support each other, both are pillars of strength for each other.
021 / Vacation
Vongola X never has time for vacations, but that's because his Mist Guardian takes it all away.
022 / Mother Nature
Mukuro curses Mother Nature for when it was that precise moment he had Tsuna cornered, that that blob of snow just had to fall on top of him in the most undesirable fashion ever.
023 / Cat
It's just like a cliché scene from a shoujo manga when Tsuna walks upon Mukuro picking up an abandoned cat in the rain.
024 / No Time
Sometimes Mukuro is slow and gentle with Tsuna, but other times he is fast – almost desperate – as if he knows that there is no more time left in the world.
025 / Trouble Lurking
Tsuna always seems to know when the real Mukuro would appear.
026 / Tears
Mukuro will not shed tears for Tsuna, but he will shed blood.
027 / Foreign
Even though this whole process was so new, so foreign to Tsuna, the one thing that was familiar was Mukuro's delicate touch.
028 / Sorrow
Even though Mukuro isn't an unfeeling jerk, it was only at Tsuna's supposed death that he felt the unfamiliar twinge of something called 'sorrow'.
029 / Happiness
Mukuro can't stop that small throb of joy in his heart when Tsuna asks, "Is it okay…for me to trust you, Mukuro?"
030 / Under the Rain
And Mukuro has never felt so alive as runs through the pouring rain, feeling Tsuna's warmth pulsating through their entwined hands.
031 / Flowers
Tsuna gives a little surprised whimper as Mukuro draws him in, proceeding to kiss the boy and Tsuna wonders why in the world he isn't rejecting this enemy… maybe he's caught in the moment because of the cherry blossom scenery.
032 / Night
By the time night is over, Tsuna's voice is hoarse from screaming Mukuro's name.
033 / Expectations
No one expected Tsuna to live, but then again, no one expected Mukuro to save him.
034 / Stars
"It's a shooting star, Mukuro – quick, make a wish!" Tsuna encouraged, with such childlike sparkle in his eyes that almost rivalled said stars.
035 / Hold My Hand
Tsuna/ can't help but notice every time how perfect and natural his hand fits into Mukuro's.
036 / Precious Treasure
At times like these – when Mukuro is embracing Tsuna gently – he feels like he is truly some kind of precious treasure.
037 / Eyes
"Is it too much to ask for your eyes to only look at me, Tsunayoshi?"
038 / Abandoned
For whatever reason Tsuna had decided to give up his life for, Mukuro could not admit the fact that he felt abandoned by the one person he had bothered to foolishly put some faith in.
039 / Dreams
"Kufufu~ Don't worry, Vongola, I'll visit you in your dreams tonight, too~"
040 / Rated
"Mukuro…what are you doing?" Tsuna asked curiously, when he noticed Mukuro so fixated on the computer screen.
"Reading R-rated stories about the two of us," Mukuro replied nonchalantly.
041 / Teamwork
Even though Tsuna wasn't exactly experienced with relationships (neither was Mukuro, for that matter), what mattered most was that they were learning together.
042 / Standing Still
It's only when he's with Tsuna that he is no longer standing still on the vertical axis of time.
043 / Dying
When he hears of Decimo's death, Mukuro feels as though ihe/i is the one dying.
044 / Two Roads
"I'm standing at a crossroad, Tsunayoshi; won't you tell me which road leads to you?"
045 / Illusion
"Hey, Vongola, is an illusion enough to bring you back to life – to me?"
046 / Family
Tsuna announced "Rokudo Mukuro is a part of the Vongola Family, and that's all there is to it," with such finality in his voice that murmurs immediately stopped.
047 / Creation
"Mukuro, if you hate the way the mafia is, then I'll just have to create a mafia that you can come to like."
048 / Childhood
Even if they didn't know each other during their childhood, they still had their whole future ahead of them – together.
049 / Stripes
"You shouldn't wear striped suits, Tsunayoshi – it reminds me too much of the man who created the Vongola," Mukuro observed with a slight frown.
050 / Breaking the Rules
"Rules are meant to be broken, Vongola," Mukuro says softly, as firmly presses his lips against Tsuna's, promptly muffling any complaints.
First time using FF .net;; It was fun fiddling with the layout! Will try to finish the rest, hopefully with more humour :3 Thank you for reading~ m(_ _)m
