Valentine’s Day, today was the day to tell Tsuna the truth!
But, was it really the best choice?
I held onto the box of chocolates that I made yesterday behind my back as I fiddled with the red velvet ribbon as I watched Tsuna at his locker from behind a wall.
I took a deep breath as I walked up to him, still with the chocolates hidden behind me.
“Tsunayoshi-kun?” I smiled as I walked towards him with a blush dusting my cheeks.
“A-Ah, [Name]-chan! What is it?” Tsuna nervously smiled as he fidgeted with the Vongola ring around his neck.
“U-Um…Tsunayoshi-kun…please accept these!” I cried as I shoved the box of chocolates in his face.
He took it and before he could reply I quickly skidded away and hid behind a wall as I peeped to see his reaction.
Tsuna well…looked dumfounded of course…
Oh wow…here comes Kyoko…
“Tsuna-kun!” She chirped as Tsuna’s brown eyes widened.
‘Ah…Kyoko-chan definitely can’t see me with these chocolates!’ Tsuna mentally panicked as he quickly threw the box of chocolates in the garbage can beside his locker.
“A-Ah Kyoko-chan!” Tsuna smiled brightly as he turned to face Kyoko as they both walked away together.
At the moment I never knew I would ever experience something that heart breaking…
I swallowed the lump in my throat as I slumped down.
The palms of my hands started to ache as I placed my hands on my face.
“Well…I at least thought he would accept my chocolates even though he wouldn’t accept my feelings…boy was I wrong!” I laughed trying to ease the pain.
I slowly got up as I walked towards the garbage bin and picked up the chocolates as I swept my fingers along the ribbon as I walked through the halls of Namimori Chuu.
I was so stupid…
---Ten years later---
“Hey it’s Valentine’s Day again…” I smiled as I flopped onto the grassy ground that belonged to the Vongola Mansion.
It has been ten years huh...since that day… I thought to myself as I raised my arm above my eyes to gaze at the red velvet ribbon that once was attached to the box of chocolates.
I sighed as I smiled at the red ribbon flapping in the summer wind as I clenched lightly on it.
However over the ten years not much changed in our relationship, besides him dating Kyoko for a year or two but that was a long time ago it didn’t go well you can say.
Was I happy or upset? Well it was good that he moved on in life unlike me swearing to myself that I will never fall in love again.
And to remind me of that promise since that day till now I wore the red ribbon around my wrist.
I still regret that day…
“[Name]-chan…” A warm familiar voice called out as I looked straight up to see the handsome Tsuna looming over me with a warm smile.
“Sawada-san.” I greeted as I sat up and smoothed out the folds on my white dress as I patted the spot next to me as the brunette smiled as took a seat.
“[Name]-chan…I’m sorry. I’m really sorry…” Tsuna spoke as soft as a whisper as tears started to fill the rim of his warm brown eyes.
“Hahaha! For what silly?!” I laughed pretending nothing was wrong as I wiped away his tears with both of my hands as I gave him a soft assuring smile.
“Ten years ago on this very day.” Tsuna seriously stated as he takes hold of both of my hands as the red ribbon slips away between my fingers.
“A-Ah!” I exclaimed as I quickly stood up to reach it as the wind took it away as Tsuna followed and got up too as he pulls me into a tight embrace.
“No [Name]-chan let it go.”
I shook my head in his warm body as I pressed both of my hands on his chest trying to resist the embrace.
“S-Stop! L-Let me go! Sawada-san!” I cried as I shook my head violently as tears started to run down my face.
He ignored me as he tighten his grip on me as I gave up and clenched onto his black cloak as I sobbed into his chest.
“You know, it really hurts me when you stop calling me by name.” Tsuna says as he runs his slender fingers through my [colour] locks.
“You know it really hurts when I watch my lover throw away my chocolates in the garbage.”
“I know, I’m sorry. And I’m sorry how I haven’t noticed it till now. I didn’t even know that you found out until recently when Yamamoto told me, okay? I’m sorry and I will tell you that every single day until I die.” Tsuna says as he places both of his hands on my shoulder as he gazed into my [colour] orbs.
“I’m sorry...” He said again as he slowly places his soft lips on mine.
“T-Tsuna-san…stop.” I weakly ordered as a blush crossed my face, it’s been 10 years and he apologizes now?
“It’s been ten years Tsuna-san. Things change.” I strictly stated as he pulls away and gazes into my eyes with his innocent ones.
“Things change but it doesn’t mean that your emotions ever changed for me [Name].” Tsuna said what his hyper intuition told him.
I pouted at the truth as I took a step closer to him as I slowly wrapped my arms around his waist while pressing my cheek against his toned chest.
“Tsuna…” I whispered as tears started to brim my eyes.
He returned the embrace as I peered up to see the red ribbon drifting about in the sky.
If I could let that go, then I can let go of the past too.
