It was raining. As far as Lambo was concerned, it’d long become worse than ‘cats and dogs’. He sighed as his car pulled up to the Vongola estate, and he stepped out only after assuring himself that he had to do so. The rain was cold as he jogged from the car to the front door, which he did as quickly as he could.
He wasn’t surprised that there was no one to greet him as he tugged open the heavy door and stepped inside. Shaking the moisture from his hair, and then pushing it back out of his eyes, he sighed and trudged deeper into the castle and up the main staircase. He had to report to Vongola before he could do anything else, namely drying off and changing clothes.
He knocked lightly on the large wooden door, waiting but a moment before he was bid to enter. His heart skipped a beat at seeing that Tsuna was not alone. Reborn sat to the side on a couch, obviously having just sat up from lounging there. Lambo forced himself to ignore his presence and make his way forward to report to the Tenth.
“Ah, Lambo-kun, I trust everything went well?” Tsuna smiled kindly at his thunder guardian.
“Yes, sir, it went smoothly. The Pagano don will be in contact with you within the week to negotiate allegiance. She seemed very eager.” It was one mission he’d actually enjoyed. The don for the Pagano famiglia was very warm and kind, reminding him of Tsuna in so many ways. He had found the family itself a bit . . . odd in some of their traditions and behaviors, but he supposed that had little to do with anything.
Tsuna gave a short nod. “You were well received and treated?” It was always one of his top priorities, that his guardians, his family be respected and treated well.
“Yes, Tenth, I was treated very well.” Lambo smiled in remembrance.
“Good. If that is all, I will await your written report. For now, just get out of those wet clothes and rest. I will probably have something else for you to do in a day or two.” Tsuna hated having to working his men so hard, Lambo knew, but it was what had to be done.
Giving a smile and small nod of his head, Lambo bowed. “I will be ready when you do, sir.” Having been dismissed, he stood upright and turned to leave. His eyes briefly, for only the fraction of a second, met Reborn’s before he made his way out of the door. The young man heaved a sigh once he was in the hall, the door closed behind him. Meetings with Tsuna were always so tense for him when Reborn was in there, which was a majority of the time.
The young Bovino tried to forget about his problems, if you would, concerning Reborn and made his way to his room. A warm bath and a change of clothes were certainly in order. He’d then see about finding something to eat. Hopefully Yamamoto-san wasn’t away on a job and could be convinced to make something delicious to eat.
***
It was several hours later when Lambo found himself standing in the hall watching the sky. The clouds had broke just a little while earlier, and he marveled at the way the evening sun kissed the rain soaked world outside. He’d been standing there for at least a quarter of an hour, when he got the sense he was being watched. Glancing over his shoulder, he couldn’t help but jump at finding Reborn standing behind him, across the hall, leaning up against the wall.
“Reborn-sama, can I … help you?” He asked hesitantly. It was very unusual for the other to ever look at him or say anything to him, unless ordered by Tsuna, if he wasn’t yelling at him about something. The younger man quickly searched his mind for anything he could have done that would have angered or upset the hitman.
The man just tipped his fedora lower over his eyes and remained silent for many minutes. Just as Lambo was about to try to slip away, he looked up at him from the shadow of his hat. “The Bovino don contacted Tsuna,” he cut to the chase. “He’d like for you to come home for a while. Tsuna said it was up to you; he’d not force you. What is your answer?”
Lambo licked his lips and looked down. The Bovino had little to do with him, as of late. He was a guardian for the Vongola. They all had various feelings on the matter, and though his boss was supportive, many in the family weren’t. They all seemed to think he felt he was better than them because of it. Many of them had never liked him to begin with.
“Well?” Reborn demanded. “It shouldn’t be that hard. Do you want to go home?” He stared at Lambo in a way that told Lambo that, though the matter was a simple one, as Reborn said, the older man was also expecting something out of it.
Shaking his head, shaggy hair bouncing a little, he looked back out the window at the grounds around the castle. “I am home,” he spoke softly. Until he said it, he hadn’t realized how true that was. He would always have the pride of a Bovino, but he had the pride of a Vongola, too.
As much as he didn’t want to, he knew which he’d choose if he had to, and not just because he was the thunder guardian. Nor, was the decision because of Reborn, though his heart would ache if he had to be parted from him. Not that he was with him to be parted from him. Lambo heaved a sigh.
Lost in thought, he missed the satisfied smirk on Reborn’s lips as the older man slipped away silently.
