Tsuna woke properly hours later, blinking at the darkened room. Her eyes weren't—quite—focusing, but the steady breathings from nearby were familiar. His rain and storm, sleeping, and the blinking lights meant… hospital, right.
She turned her head carefully, wary of soreness, and took a few minutes to coax protesting vision into cooperation. She can feel one's slender fingers entangled with her own in which she then curled them, tightening the grip for a bit, whereas the furrow on Takeshi's head eased a bit and Tsuna herself let out a quite sigh, settling to watch the two in silence.
She can't really do anything right now, but hopefully they, especially the swordsman, would sleep a little easier knowing that they won't be alone anymore. That she has returned. That they're safe with their true sky once more.
Content with the situation, those ambers were back to it's hiding as the owner decided to take another couple of hours worth of peaceful slumber...

When Tsuna finally reopened her pair of amber, the bright light caught her eyes making her quickly closed them back and frown.
“Juudaime?” the silvernette says as she notice the younger waking up. In which, on cue, not just her, but the rest of visitors came rushing to the sky's side. Where, fortunately with them standing, they block the bright light from Tsuna's eyes.
“I’m going to call the doctor” Takeshi says as he dashed outside the room searching for the doctor.
“...?” Tsuna question wasn't clear enough to be heard, especially with her hoarse voice and a mask covering it. Her voice came out more like somekind of gibberish instead, before she let out some cough afterwards.
About a minute later, Takeshi came with a doctor. The doctor takes a few minutes to check the youngest and finally walks outside after some words, letting them be with the brunet.
“How are you feeling, Tsuna?” Takeshi asks softly. One that Tsuna missed. Familiar tone yet different with the Takeshi he knew all those years. At least, that's a start. Therefore she tried to express her relief with a smile.
“Numb-“ Tsuna replied him, however. Not that she lies or anything. Her body feels nothing.
As Tsuna is slowly realized what situation she is in, she weakly raised her hand to take a glance. Some casts could be seen, but she wasn't that surprised about it. But what is the thing on her finger? A pulse oximeter? And... again with the oxygen mask? Is that a heart monitor? No wonder they looked at her like she is going to break any second.
Just how seriously injured she was?
She then glance at the her siblings and Reborn. He frowns. Not a good sign. But she couldn't careless now. She just noticed that she's in a hospital, the place that she's never fond of... especially because of certain deaths of her dearests. And by that, all that she wanted to do is to leave. Yet as Tsuna is trying to move and sit up, not forgetting to take of the thing on his face and finger, a pair of hand quickly cut his move, sending a murderous look at him.
“No, lay down, Tsuna. You’re still weak” Reborn ordered.
With a frown, Tsuna just ignored him and still trying to take off the mask, someone finally snaps.
“STOP!-“
She is in trouble. Tsuna is in trouble again, right?
“Stop trying to take that thing off. You’re not allowed to do so. Your oxygen level is still low. Your oxygen level barely reach the normal oxygen range. And that thing-"
Miyuki pointed out at her sister's finger. “-is used to monitor your oxygen level and so you are not allowed to take that off until we got a word from the doctor. That’s it. What is so hard with that?” The wheelchaired girl says, finishing her sentence.
"Mi-chan..." Makoto called his twin softly in warning despite agreeing with her. Just why is it so hard to make their eldest to stay put in the hospital? If usually she would still have a goofy aura where ever she threatened on busting out by herself, this time however, it was clear that she wanted nothing but leave as soon she's awake. She's serious. Even someone as blind as him could tell.
"Alright. I'm sorry okay? I'm just worried" Miyuki replies shortly after that.
Tsuna sigh. She didn’t want to see any of them looking at her with worried faces. She hates to see them worried over nothing so she closes her eyes again, eventually went back to sleep...

When she wakes up again, this time she was all by herself. Or so she thought, before a low tone of the one and only could be heard calling her name.
"You're awake, Tsuna?"
The brunette barely turned her head as she strained her eyeballs to caught the sight of the hitman.
"Don't... I'll be there in a sec." And only after Reborn pulled a chair and sat next to the younger that Tsuna smiled.
"Hey..." she said with voice that's too weak.
Caressing her bruised cheek carefully, Reborn returned the greeting, "Hey..." he's not smiling nor he smirks. But how could he, when he almost lost Tsuna for the second time?
"I'm sorry..." it was unnecessary, seemingly none of this was his fault. But he just did. He, who's known as man with iron heart, just appologized over something that's barely over his control.
It was way too out of character that Tsuna's achibg to raise her brow, questioning whether this is somekind of twisted dream. But with the constant pain she felt all over her body, she doubted that. Yet, somehow she understands why he did so. She could feel the lingering guilt. Therefore she says, "Not your fault. Just stay now..."
He hummed as she closes her eyes again. Still pretty tired, she can barely heard the hitman's confession.
"... -think I'm in love with you..."
-he wouldn't have known that smiling in her sleep wasn't one of Tsuna's habit. If only she could tell him now.
But, then again, all can wait. Right now, recovery is more important. And the way he's running his hands over her scalp is such a heavenly feeling. Too good that she's instantly asleep.
In all honesty, despite of what has happened, she prayed deep in her heart that all of this weren't just another sweet dream of hers... or else she wouldn't want to wake up...
