Life has never been easy for Tsuna. Though, it's not that bad either.
Yet his dull story suddenly turned 180 degrees the moment he opened the door, that one fated day.
Out of things that has happened to him, never once in his wildest dream he though...
Okay... so, it seems that Tsuna doesn't know his brother as much as he claimed. Still, he'd blame that idiot-blond for not telling him that by 'Party' he meant for a ball in a freaking mansion!
Masquerades everywhere. He thanked god that he was out of time and doesn't actually have time to make his costume and settled with cosplaying Kaito Kid, saved the cape and top hat. Still, his white suit stands out the most among the sea of black.
"Dear Brother! You're finally here!" A voice, annoyingly familiar, owned by the said idiot himself, came from his left side.

There's his brother, with his extravagant suit and the rest of its accessories, walking down the path to approach their tiny crowd. Rather than glad, Tsuna wanted to punch him hard.
"Dear brother..." he copied mockingly as he tried his best not to fall for the temptation. "why didn't you tell me that this is going to be a formal party?"
Giotto, with his bright smile on full display just blinked, "because it's not." He answered shortly.
"Then why are these people wearing suits? If you had warned me, we would have dressed more properly..." Tsuna hissed through his gritted teeth. Smiling, but eyes glinting dangerously.
"Why?" Giotto dumbly asked, "Your kids are wonderful! And so do you!" He grinned before bowing a little to greet the younger ones.
"Hello, kids. My name is Sawada Ieyasu, but I'm more known here as Giotto. I am your papa's big brother. So, call me Uncle Giotto, okay!"
Lambo, shied away from the cheerful blond, but then encouraged himself to accept the motion after seeing his Papa's nod of approval.
"M-Me name is Lambo. Lambo is 4." He timidly say as he let himself being picked by the taller male.
"Well, Hello, Lambo. And you guys are?" Giotto turned to the rest.
"Good evening, Uncle Giotto, my nme is Mukuro, the eldest. And from the left, they are Kyoya, Ryohei, Hayato, Takeshi, and Chrome, it's nice to meet you!"
"It's nice to meet you!" The others echoed.
Giotto's grin is even wider now, "It's nice to finally meet you all. Although, boy, such a polite bunch you have there, baby brother."
And Tsuna be looking so proud before Giotto's lips twitched in mischief, "Actually, your papa was quite a trouble maker when he's your age, so why don't we have some fun ourself? Your aunt and your new friends has been in the backyard waiting for you guys with bunch of toys we just bought. Here, Uncle Asari, will lead you the way"
And as if on cue, the raven haired male, for once not wearing his traditional piece, waltzed in to lead them the way. Giotto let the younget back to his feet.
"Becareful, okay!" Tsuna told them as he waved at his kids before then turning to his brother and smacks his arm.
"Ouch... what was that for, Tuna-fish?" His pout only irritates the brunet more.
"I am not a trouble maker, and don't encourage me children with things! I don't need them get all hyper or worse, influenced by your weirdness." The shorter man complained, whilst the other gasped dramatically at his last words.
Luckily enough, before Giotto could cry over the statement, his trusted right-hand-man has invited himself into the conversation— by glarring at his boss.
"I know that you'll be here ya' lazy-boss..." G growled as his hand clawed the blond who seemed to be guilty as charge.
The pink— well, Hot-red haired man turned to the owner of that brown locks and gave him a nod of acknowledgement as a simple greeting. Tsuna just simply returned the gesture as he said, "thank you for keeping my brother's alive, G-san."
"I wish that I don't have to. Because clearly, this idiot forgot that he still have some guests lined up and yet to be greeted"
"B-But G! My baby brother is here with my cute nephews and niece! I want to play with them!" Giotto whined whilst puppy eyes on a full blast. Too bad, the other two has immuned to that ages ago. They just simply ignored him.
"Well, it's nice to meet you after so long, Tsuna. We should have a drink or two once this party is over." G said, snickering at the younger who smiled in return.
"Sure, G-san. Good luck with him!"
"I'll be needing that. Overall, enjoy yourself!" G said, dragging his boss while ignoring his complaints.
"I will!" And as Tsuna bid them goodbye, the two were lost in the crowd.
Now, he's been told that Luce and Kawahira will attend this party too and it's likely that they will bring their children along, per request of Giotto. So maybe, it's better to leave them for a bit.
Although, now that his brother is not around he feels like a fish out of water. And his insecurities doesn't help much. He can't stop overthinking that these rich strangers are staring at him.
They're whispering. And he can hear some laughters too...
It's bad enough that his clothes are mismatched colour, and now he is all alone in this cramped place full of people.
Tsuna can hear his racing heart beat and honestly he just want to crawl back in his cozy bed—
Grabbing a drink from a passing butler, he drank it whole to ease his nerve cells. Yet he can't help but flinch when he feels a tap on his shoulder.
"Sawada-san?" A smooth voice, peculiarly familiar, called out as he turned around in alert, accidentally hitting the girl.
"I-I'm sorry miss. Are you okay?" He asked in worry as his anxiety just skyrocketed as well the pace of his heart beat.
A some sort of relief washed over him as the girl lower his hand as well her mask and smiled instead, "It's alright, Sawada-san. I should be the one to apologize for startling you." That ginger haired assured. Tsuna on the other hand, is currently blinking as he can't believe on what he sees...
