Tsuna stared out the sitting room window. Thick dark clouds covered the sky, hiding away every ray of light. With no change in the air, it was impossible to tell where the clouds had come from. The ground was muddy and bleak, yet not a single drop of rain and fallen since the early hours of the morning.
He had been watching for any kind of break in the weather, but not a single cloud had shifted. It was strange and unnatural, yet something in the air felt familiar and at the same time different.
Time was ticking by and he was quickly losing his patience. The King had yet to release him from his study. The two of them had only been married a single day and yet he had barely seen his husband at all. No thanks to his father.
The young prince opened his eyes, as sleep slipped from him. He was lying on his stomach with his face buried in his pillow. As he laid there he discovered that he was no longer wearing his night attire. He could feel the sheets that slid down his skin each time he moved until they pooled in the middle of his back.
He glanced over at Reborn, who was peacefully sleeping beside him. His usual spiked hair was all messed up and lying against his face. The sheet was draped over his skin, covering the majority of his form. The thought of touching all that smooth muscular skin...
When he came out of his trance, Tsuna found that his fingers were only inches from his husband's skin. The brunet's face turned bright red in embarrassment. He closed his eyes and buried his face into his pillow to hide his shame.
He prayed that the Earl wouldn't wake up and witness his bashfulness. That was until he felt something touch his lower back. His eyes shot open as he laid there unmoving as if he was frozen. 'It's fine. It's just Reborn.' He relaxed, letting his body rest into the mattress.
Whatever it was that was resting on him. it began to move up his back. It wasn't smooth like skin, instead, it was scaly and rough, there were parts that felt sharp.
Tsuna slowly reached over towards the raven. He was doing his best to avoid making any sudden movements. The last thing he needed was to startle whatever it was on his lower back. The tips of his fingers brushed against smooth skin, that covered firm muscle. He began to tap his fingers against the raven's bicep in hopes of waking him.
"Reborn." He could feel the Earl move beside him. 'Thank god.' Instead of waking as he had hoped, his husband simply rolled over so that he was facing him.
The scales that had been motionless began to shift and move up towards his shoulder.
The young prince reached a bit more until his entire hand was resting against his husband's bicep. He began to shake him as best he could without disturbing the creature on his back. He couldn't help but start to panic a little bit more each time that the scales moved. "Reborn, wake up." When the raven made no movement to wake up, he had to try again. "Come on, Reborn. Wake up."
"What?" His husband let out a low groan, before rubbing his eyes. "Go back to sleep."
The brunet was surprised to hear the anger and sarcasm in the other's voice. He, of course, heard it when the Earl spoke to others, but never once had it been used on him. 'He must still be tired.' He shook him one final time, his movements becoming a little jerky as the panic inside him grew. "No. You need to wake up."
Reborn opened one eye and stared at him. "I already told you last night that we're only sharing the bed and nothing else." The raven closed his eyes and yawned. "At least while we're here."
"Wha… No. That's not…" Tsuna went to sit up, only to stop when he felt a couple of sharp pricks against his back. "There's something on my back." He stopped whatever movement he had started to make and then froze up like a statue.
The raven opened his eyes once again but made no other movements to sit up. "It's called a sheet, wife. I'm sure you've heard of them."
"It's not a sheet." The young prince was in a full out panic, when he felt the sharp edges he was certain were claws. "It's scaly and has sharp claws."
His husband let out a tired yawn before he closed his eyes once more. "Don't worry. It was only a nightmare."
"Damn it, Reborn, this is no nightmare. There is something on my back and - ow…" He dropped his head down onto the pillow from the pain.
Reborn opened his eyes. "Alright, Tsuna, let's see what it is that's bothering you." The sheet that was still covering them suddenly was pulled away. "Shit."
The brunet held as still as possible and took slow breaths. "Reborn, what is it?"
"It's nothing bad. Don't worry about it." The scales and the sharp claws were suddenly lifted off of his back. "Don't worry, just give me a minute."
He held as still as a statue, even as he felt the raven move beside him. He turned his head just in time to watch him walk into the bathroom. There was a moment of silence which was then followed by the sound of running water. 'What's going on?' He turned his head and caught sight of two beady eyes staring back at him. "Reborn."
"Don't worry, it's not too bad."
Tsuna turned his gaze back towards the bathroom, just in time to see his husband walking out with a cloth in his hand. "What's not so bad?" His gaze moved back towards the green creature, just as he felt the scales and sharp pricks against his lower back.
The raven remained silent for a minute, before answering. "They're just small cuts, it's nothing serious." Reborn sat down beside him. "That's enough, Leon." The scales and claws were once again removed from his skin, thankfully before they could go any deeper.
He stopped moving when he felt something cold against his back. He turned his head in hopes of seeing what was going on. It, of course, didn't work. He did, however, find those two beady eyes still staring at him. "Why is there a lizard on my bed?"
"That's Leon." His husband made a soft humming noise. "He's my pet."
"You brought your pet with you?" The young prince gripped the sheets in his hands. "…I didn't know you had a pet."
"Oh, I'm sure that I mentioned him." The Earl moved a bit, which caused the bed to shift under his weight. "I probably mentioned him when you were too busy staring at me, and you just didn't hear."
The young prince's cheeks turned a deep red. He buried his face into the pillow in embarrassment. "I-I don't know what you're talking about." He stiffened even more if that was even possible when he felt something warm move over his skin.
The raven hummed in response. "I wonder what was going through your head at that time?"
Tsuna recognized what was gliding over his skin - it was his husband's fingers. "What are you doing?" He laid there, completely content and released a soft sigh. "It feels amazing." He was certain that, if he turned, he would find his husband smiling.
"I'm glad that you're enjoying yourself, but I'm all done." The Earl's fingers ran through his hair for a moment, before his hand slipped away. "We need to start getting ready to leave." The bed shifted once again as he moved away.
The brunet moved to sit up and sat cross-legged in the center of the bed. He sat in silence as his husband was in the bathroom. His gaze was drawn down when he caught sight of Leon moving across the orange sheets before it laid down beside him.
"He likes you."
"What?" He looked at his husband in surprise and then looked down when he felt something touch his foot. Leon's long pink tongue flicked out of its mouth, the tip touched the base of his foot. "Eew… Leon." He began to wipe the bottom of his foot with the sheet, only for its tongue to brush against the top of his hand. "Reborn, why is he…" He looked up in time to see the raven's shoulders drop. 'Is he pouting?'
"I don't believe this." The Earl slipped his hands into the pockets of his pants. That was when the young prince noticed that Reborn had begun to get dressed while in the bathroom. "He likes you more than me."
The brunet raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Who?"
"Leon." Tsuna stared at his husband, almost as if he had lost his mind. "It took him weeks before he was comfortable enough that he would come near me."
'Oh, my god. He is pouting.' He tried his hardest to keep the smile off of his face, which was actually quite hard to do. "I'm certain that he's only acting like this because you trained him so well."
The raven's lip twitched for a second and when he went to say something, there was a knock at the door. Any hint of a smile disappeared as Reborn turned towards the door, just as another knock could be heard. "Who would dare to come and knock on our door at this time?"
"Oh, I could think of a few." The brunet reached out his hand and placed it on his husband's arm, which instinctively made him sit along the edge of the bed. The door swung open and both of them had turned just in time for the King to enter the room. "Him being one of them."
"Good morning, Tuna-fish!"
"Haven't you heard of getting permission before entering?" Reborn scoffed before moving farther onto the bed so the two of them were almost touching.
To save time and effort, the young prince turned his father's attention to himself. "Morning, Father. Aren't you up a little early?"
The King walked further into the room, so he was no longer standing near the door. "It's not that early, Tuna-fish. Breakfast was served a couple of hours ago. You've slept in." His father's gaze moved towards the bed and focused along his leg. "What is that?"
Tsuna was hesitant at first, but worked up the courage to stroke the lizards head like one would a cat. "This is Leon." The lizard in question didn't seem to mind his ministrations all that much, so he continued. "He's Reborn's pet."
"I see." His father's gaze moved from the slumbering chameleon, towards his husband. "I need to borrow the Earl for a while."
"While I'm flattered that you've taken an interest in me..." The brunet had realized from their first meeting that Reborn didn't care much for his father and his presence currently didn't seem to help. "I do not believe in cheating on my wife and I'm sure the Queen has the same feelings."
"Wha-What?" The King's went wide and his face looked horrified at Reborn's statement. "That's not what I meant!"
The young prince was doing his best not to laugh or smile at the look of horror on his father's face. It truly seemed to be a challenge for him as the corners of his lips continued to twitch in amusement.
The King cleared his throat. "I meant that you and I still need to finalize everything before the two of you leave tomorrow."
"We are leaving by mid-noon. I told you this upon my arrival." The Earl leaned towards Tsuna and rubbed a finger over the head of his sleeping pet. "Perhaps you should have that blond assistant of yours follow you around and take notes of all your conversations."
"I haven't forgotten if that's what you are insinuating, Lord Reborn." His father stood straight, almost as if he was being boastful. "I doubt you are willing to risk your life or the life of my Tuna-fish during a storm."
"I swore that no harm would come to my wife and I plan to uphold that promise." Reborn cupped Tsuna's cheek and gently ran his finger across his skin, which caused the brunet to blush. "Now if you want us to get up, don't you think you should leave? Or perhaps you need help finding the door?"
The King scowled before he turned and moved towards the door. "I expect you to join me in my study once you're presentable."
Only after the door closed behind his father did the brunet turn towards the raven, who had taken the chance and quickly kissed him. "That was quite cruel."
The Earl released his cheek and moved back, putting only a small amount of space between them. "Cruel, no. Amusing, yes."
"True. I don't know how you managed to keep a straight face." Tsuna smiled. "I had a hard time not laughing, especially when he had that horrified look on his face."
"Practice, lots of practice." Reborn smiled. "What are the chances that he would forget about the supposed meeting?"
"Slim to none." The brunet smiled. "I'm certain that he's already spoken to Oregano and she'll be along soon to accompany you to his study." The raven remained silent as he continued getting dressed in the bathroom. The young prince moved carefully so he wouldn't disturb the slumbering chameleon. "Sorry, Leon." Just as he placed his feet on the floor, Reborn exited the bathroom. To his surprise, the Earl had donned an orange shirt instead of his usual. 'I wonder why.'
As if sensing his gaze, Reborn answered his unasked question as he reached into the closet and removed his black jacket. "I simply felt like a change." The raven raised an eyebrow as he watched him fix the buttons of his jacket. "What are you doing, Tsuna?"
"I'm trying not to wake up Leon."
His husband's lip twitched in amusement. "It's impossible to wake him once he's fallen asleep." The Earl lifted his pet from the mattress and placed him on his shoulder. "I'll try to finish with the Idiot King as fast as I can." Reborn ran his fingers through the brown hair, making the spikes stand up even more before he placed his hat on his head. "Tsuna."
"Yes?" The young prince looked up as he spoke.
The raven leaned down and kissed him. Tsuna's cheeks turned bright red, which caused Reborn to smile, before his husband turned and walked out of the room, leaving him to get ready.
Tsuna's eyebrow began to twitch. 'How long is father planning to keep Reborn in the study?' He turned towards the door hoping to find his husband standing there, but just like every time, he looked and the doorway was empty. "Damn it, I can't take it anymore."
"Be patient, Tsu-kun." His mother's voice called out to him.
The young prince turned towards the fireplace where his mother, Lady Gokudera and the young blond woman he saw at his reception were sitting. "They've been in there for hours, Kaa-san."
"Yes, they have and just like the weather, you won't be able to change it just because you want it to." His mother looked up from her stitching. "You must be patient."
Lady Gokudera looked up from her own stitching. "Consider this as your first test in married life, Prince Tsuna."
"Would you like to join us, Prince Tsuna?" The young blond woman motioned at the open seat beside her. "I'm sure some light conversation would help you take your mind off Earl Sinclair."
"Oh, that's a wonderful idea." The Queen smiled. "Do come and join us, Tsu-kun? We have wonderful floral tea and some delightful cakes."
"Sure. At least for a little while." He took the seat offered to him beside the young blond woman. "I'm sorry if I seemed rude when you first came in."
"It's alright, Tsu-kun, you had things on your mind." His mother sipped her tea.
"It's quite understandable, Prince Tsuna." Lady Gokudera smiled as she finished another stitch.
"I've heard about your distant stare while thinking, Prince Tsuna." The young blond woman took a bite of a piece of chocolate cake.
He was surprised to hear that, especially since no one took any care to spend enough time to watch him and figure out his habits. "Is that so, Lady…"
"Oh, have you not been introduced?" Lady Gokudera put her stitching down. "This is Lady Elena Allodola."
"Allodola? As in Alaude Allodola?" Tsuna tried to keep the surprise out of his voice, but he knew he failed horribly.
The young woman stood, making him jump to his feet. "Yes. I'm his younger sister." Elena bowed towards him. "I'm honoured to meet you, Prince Tsuna."
"The honour is mine, Lady Allodola." The young prince bows in return.
Elena sits back down. "Please call me Elena. Lady Allodola is my mother."
"If that's what you wish, Lady Elena." He sits back down beside her. 'I never would have guessed that the two of them were related. They're complete opposites of each other.'
"My brother wrote to me these past years and he always spoke kindly of everyone here." She smiled. "He went on to speak of your kindness towards everyone and how you treat everyone fairly." Her smile widened. "I quickly realized how much I wanted to meet you." Her smile slipped for her lips. "Even if it was only for a moment, so I could apologize for believing the rumours that the court members were spreading about you."
He covered her hand with one of his and gave it a small squeeze in comfort. "It's alright. I've grown up under their watchful eyes for so long that no longer care what they think." She opened her mouth to speak, but he stopped her from an apology that she clearly wanted to make. "With my soon departure out of the country, I hope they will find something more interesting to speak about."
"I couldn't agree more." His mother smiled happily, though he was certain he had seen a sparkle in her eye. "Tsu-kun, why don't you go check on your father now and see what is going on?" Tsuna stood. "Do tell your father that we've waited long enough and that it's time for you to depart."
"Of course, Kaa-san." He bowed to the three of them. "If you'll excuse me." He quickly turned and began walking towards his father's study. He passed by a couple of the maids who smiled at him and bowed before they continued on down the hall.
Tsuna quickened his steps when his father's study came into view. The silence in the halls disappeared the closer he got to the doors. 'Are they yelling at each other?'
"It's a set deal."
There was a loud bang, which caused him to take a step back.
"That was not apart of the arrangement."
The brunet could hear the icy tone in his husband's voice. 'What in the world are they arguing about?'
"It is now."
He stepped in front of the door and raised his hand to knock.
"Calm down, Father."
The young prince hesitated for a moment, unsure if disturbing them couldn't wait for a bit longer. 'At least they're not alone in there.'
"Stay out of this, Giotto."
He knocked against the door as hard as he could, to ensure that he wouldn't be ignored.
"Enter." His father's voice yelled through the door.
Tsuna opened the door and was surprised to come face to face with so many people sitting around the room. The King, of course, was sitting behind his desk. His brother was sitting off to the side, with Alaude standing behind him. G was sitting near the window, rubbing the arch of his nose.
He spotted Xanxus sitting in a dark corner, with his eyes closed and his feet kicked up on a nearby table. Levi was standing off to the side as if waiting for instructions. He was surprised to discover that none of his eldest cousin's knights weren't present.
The only one in the room who looked absolutely terrified was his cousin Dino, who was sitting only a couple of feet away from Reborn. The brunet looked over his cousin's appearance and wasn't all that surprised about finding him covered in bandage wraps.
"What can we do for you, Tuna-fish?" His father's voice sounded strained and he was definitely stressed if the grip on his pen was anything to go by.
Tsuna locked gazes with the Earl, who smiled as if to reassure him that he was fine before he answered. "You realize you all have been locked up in this room for hours, right?" He stared at his father with a scowl on his face. "I know that you're having a hard time accepting that I'm going to be leaving."
"Tuna-fish."
The young prince shook his head. "I don't care what you have to say, Father." He wasn't sure who was more surprised - the King, whose mouth was hanging open, or his brother, whose eyes had gone wide. "Reborn had arranged for us to depart two hours ago and yet here we still are." He narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms. "I don't know what you're arguing about, but I, for one, would like us to head off before the sun sets."
His father started opening and closing his mouth as if he wanted to say something but was unable to form the words. The young prince spared a glance at his two cousins. Dino looked as if he was going to pass out and Xanxus was smiling in humour.
"Mother has started to get suspicious of what you are doing here." That seemed to silence the King from its silent dialogue. He turned his attention towards his husband, who had tilted his hat down, covering most of his face, but he could see the hint of a smile. "I'm ready to depart whenever you are, Reborn." There was a sudden knock at the door. "Come in."
"It's my study." His father grumbled under his breath.
"Forgive the intrusion." Oregano walked in with a file in her hands. "The Queen says that it's time for Prince Tsuna and Lord Reborn to depart."
The King clenches his teeth. "We haven't quite finished our discussion yet. Perhaps if you could take Tuna-fish to his mother to say his goodbyes, so we can finish up quickly."
"No." His father looked at him in shock. "I said my goodbyes to everyone hours ago. I am tired of being left out of the discussion which clearly has to do with me." Tsuna took a step forward so that he was closer to the King's desk. "If you have something to say, then you can say it while I'm here."
The room fell into silence, which ended after a minute by Dino falling face-first onto the floor. There was a moment where the word "Idiot" could be heard from almost everyone in the room.
There was some quick shuffling before the young prince felt a hand rest on his waist. "My wife is right. If you have anything to say in reference to him, then you can say it in front of Tsuna."
"Very well." The King stood up from his chair and looked at him. "I've decided to add in something extra to your wedding gift, but Lord Reborn doesn't wish for me to do so."
The young prince looked at his husband in question. "Why?"
"Because it's unnecessary." The raven ran his fingers along his side. "You shall not require such things."
"How can you be so sure? Unless you plan to spend every waking minute with my Tuna-fish." His father leaned forward on his desk, the wood creaking under the weight of his hands.
'I'm surprised that it hasn't collapsed yet.' The brunet stared at his father and his attempt at being intimidating.
"But, of course," Reborn smirked. "I plan to be at his side each and every time he wishes to go out. So no, we won't be requiring this extra wedding gift."
Tsuna could hear the King grinding his teeth. "If that's what Reborn believes, then you shouldn't force it on him."
His father looked towards his brother, who merely nodded his head in answer to the King's unasked question. "If you're sure, Tuna-fish, then we won't argue about it anymore." The young prince was surprised. He thought for sure that the argument would continue. His father walked towards them and pulled him into a hug. "If you need anything at all, you let us know. You're my Tuna-fish and I'll bring the Country of Vongola's wrath down on anyone who crosses you."
"Stop being so dramatic father." Giotto pulled him out of his father's arms and into his own. "Take care, Tsu-kun."
"You too. Take care of Kaa-san and Father." He hugged his brother before he took a step back. He turned his attention to Alaude, who was already staring back at him. "Make sure you look out for him and keep him from making stupid decisions." His brother-in-law remained quiet before nodding his head in acceptance.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Giotto pouted.
Dino was the next one to pull him into a hug. "This isn't goodbye. After all, we'll practically be neighbours."
Tsuna smiled as he hugged him in return. "That's true. Chiavarone and Arcobaleno are right beside each other." He was pulled from his cousin's arms, right before Dino slipped backward and fell to the floor. "Are you alright?"
"Don't worry about him, brat." Xanxus patted his head. "If you find yourself in some kind of trouble, let me know, we'll come bail you out."
"Sure, but I'm not going to get into trouble." The young prince looked at his eldest cousin. "But I appreciate the concern."
Xanxus patted his head a couple more times. With each pat, a little more force was used, leaving him no choice but to lower his head. "Xanxus, what are you doing?"
"Nothing for you to worry about." Xanxus patted his head one more time before he walked away. "Keep in touch, brat." His cousin didn't wait for him to answer before he walked out of the room with his knights on his tail.
'I wonder what that was about?' Tsuna turned to his husband, who was waiting for him near the door.
"It's time, Tsuna." Reborn held his hand out to him.
The brunet looked at everyone in the room and smiled one final time while doing his best not to cry. He took the raven's hand before the two of them walked out of the room. "I haven't said goodbye to Hayato and Takashi yet."
The Earl squeezed his hand. "I'm sure they will come and find us before we leave the country." They entered the main hall to find his mother and the head cook, Mrs. Sasagawa, and head maid, Mrs. Miura, waiting for them. The raven released his hand. "Go ahead, just don't take too long."
The young prince walked forward and pulled his mother into a hug. "This won't be the last time that we see each other, so don't look so sad."
"It won't be the same." The Queen put her head down on his shoulder as she made no attempt to stop herself from crying. "I won't be able to simply walk down the hall to see you when you lock yourself away in the study."
He patted her back in comfort. "I'll come and visit as often as I can." He kissed her cheek when she lifted her head from his shoulder. "Perhaps you'll come and visit us one day."
His mother took a step back and smiled. "Of course, I will."
The two women walked forward in turn, each giving him a hug. "Take care, Prince Tsuna." Mrs. Sasagawa patted his cheek.
Mrs. Miura handed him a small basket. "Just something to snack on." She wiped the tears from her cheeks. "So you better not forget us."
He smiled in return. "I'll never be able to forget either of you." He looked to his mother, who was hugging his husband. "Have you seen Hayato and Takashi? I haven't said goodbye to them yet."
His mother smiled. "They went to help bring your things to the ship. I'd imagine that they're still there."
"If we hurry, Tsuna, you'll be able to catch them before we leave." Reborn kissed his mother's cheek. "If you'll excuse us, Maman, we need to be on our way."
"Oh yes, of course." The Queen smiled. "I wish you both a safe trip and, Tsu-kun, make sure to write."
"I will, Kaa-san. I promise."
His mother kissed his cheek.
The two of them walked outside and, to the brunet's surprise, a carriage was waiting for them. The two climbed in and, once the door closed, the carriage was moving out onto the street.
"Why are we going by ship?" He turned his gaze away from the window. "Isn't Arcobaleno on the same continent as Vongola?"
Reborn smiled. "It's faster to take a ship than it is to use horses."
"Oh." Tsuna looked back out the window and watched as the city went by. Many of the townspeople that saw him waved as he went by. He glanced up at the sky to find it still covered by the clouds, but they weren't as dark as they were before. 'Maybe if we're lucky, the sky will start to clear up once we're out on the water.' The sweet smell of the gardenia's in Mrs. Irie's garden and the freshly baked goods slowly disappeared amongst the heavy scent of seawater.
The carriage suddenly came to a stop and if he hadn't been holding onto the seat, he would have fallen face forward. He felt something resting on his waist and, when he looked down, he found Reborn's hand acting as an anchor. "Thank you."
"If you wish to thank me, a kiss would be preferred." The raven's lips turned up as the two of them stared at one another. Tsuna's cheeks turned a dark red at the thought. His husband had leaned forward so there was a small amount of space between them. "Go ahead, wife, I'll wait."
Tsuna sat quietly for a moment, staring at the Earl's face before he leaned forward and quickly kissed him, then leaned away.
Reborn chuckled. "Alright, let's go." The Earl didn't bother to wait for the King's footman to open the door. Instead, he opened it himself. The two of them climbed out of the carriage and if the strong scent of the sea didn't confirm where they were, then the large ship in front of them sure did.
"Prince Tsuna, you're here." The young prince looked up to see Knuckle on the ship. "We've been waiting for you." The sun knight came down the ramp.
"You're here, Prince Tsuna." Asari calmly walked behind his friend. "Everything is already on board and ready to go."
"Good." The raven looked at him. "You want to ask him anything, do it now."
"Question?" Tsuna stood there in silence.
"You've asked everyone this question." His husband watched him as if waiting for him to remember. "It concerns your two friends."
The brunet suddenly understood what the other was saying. "Have you seen Hayato and Takashi? I still haven't said goodbye."
A sad smile crossed both knight's faces. "I'm sorry, but I haven't seen them since we started loading your things onto the boat."
"I fear they didn't want to say goodbye, so they left a little while ago." Asari bowed. "I am sorry, Prince Tsuna, I tried to convince them to stay, but they both seemed insistent on leaving."
The young prince nodded his head. 'I guess they weren't really my friends, but just knights doing their job.'
"We have to leave, Tsuna. We've already lost too much time with the Idiot King." The Earl placed his hand on his shoulder. "We can't waste any more on trying to find those that don't want to be found."
He couldn't help but feel sad knowing that he would have to leave without saying goodbye. "I know." He looked at the two knights. "Can you pass on a message?" The two knights nodded their heads. "Tell them that I'll miss them and their crazy conversations. I'll do my best to write and they can choose if they wish to write back in return."
"I'm sure they will regret not being here and talking to you." Asari walked forward and patted his shoulder. "We won't keep you any longer."
"I'll be sure to tell them." Knuckle ruffled his hair. "Travel safe. May the wind be swift and the sea calm."
Reborn nodded his head before he led Tsuna onto the ship. Once the ramp was removed and the sails were released. Almost like it was summoned, a gust of wind urged the ship forward and out to sea.
Tsuna held on to his husband's hand as the ship crept farther out to the ocean. 'My life as Prince Tsunayoshi Sawada has ended, but my life as Lord Tsuna, the husband of Reborn Sinclair, the Earl of Arcobaleno has just begun.'
