Yamamoto wasn't sure what spying on Tsuna and Sasagawa-chan's date had to do with the mafia game, but Gokudera had insisted that it was a mission of utmost importance, so he had just smiled and followed along. Pretty quickly he had realized that mission was just to "be there" and yet "not be there" at the same time so that Tsuna could have his date and still get away without calling it a "date" (which Tsuna seemed deathly afraid of doing.).
So, he and Gokudera had tagged along a good fifteen meters behind their friend all through Namimori's summer festival. Walking past the festive booths, Yamamoto explained the cultural elements behind the various masks and traditional snacks to his mostly Italian friend (even though Gokudera probably already knew, haha!). After a few hours of walking, snacking and simply "being present" the four of them ended up halfway up the grassy knoll in the middle of the park.
Relaxed, Yamamoto leaned back on his hands and looked up at the unusually clear night sky, trying to spot constellations he knew. (Or thought he knew, his astrology was poor and the one time he'd tried to point one out to Gokudera, the other had scowled and said "That's a winter constellation, dumbass.") Seemingly unable to sit still, Gokudera leaned back and forth, tilting his head this way and that, grumbling about how he couldn't hear anything Tsuna was saying to Sasagawa-chan.
"Haha! Just leave him be, Gokudera. He won't be able to confess if he knows you're listening. He's bashful like that."
"Shut up, idiot. You don't know anything doesn't take place on a baseball field."
Yamamoto laughed in response before grabbing Gokudera's shoulder and forcing him to lean back and enjoy the night sky. "Stop thinking about Tsuna. Just enjoy the- Oh! Look! A shooting star!" Laughing, Yamamoto closed his eyes and made a wish before looking over at Gokudera to see if he'd done the same (he hadn't. Gokudera had only turned his silver head to look Yamamoto in the eye).
"I don't need some stupid star to make my wishes come true, idiot." And then Gokudera leaned in to grant both of their wishes.
