He's a super freak

Bruno started following his boss, who was walking with a slow pace, clearly not wanting to hurry up

"Giorno, i'm serious about what i say. You know i wouldn't lie to you" the guard said without gaining any kind of attention from the emperor

"Why are you so nervous? If nothing has happened then nothing has happened. There shouldn't be anything to be worried about.... Am i right?" Giorno said, finally turning his head to Bruno, who was sweating already

"Giorno, i was just chatting with her. Nothing more. We're friends and i know you like her, so i would never do what you're thinking" the black haired guy calmly said in order to reassure Giorno and himself as well

After entering the emperor's room, they both sitted down and started talking more seriously than in the corridor

"If you two weren't talking about something important, then why did you stop when i arrived?" Giorno suspiciously asked, without raising his voice

"We were chatting about whatever. Stuff that usually doesn't interest you-"

"But what if it did interest me?" Giorno interrupted Bruno

The air was getting heavier with each and every sentence, while the two were already glaring at each other

"What is going on Gio? First you kill Jack without a reason, now you're overreacting out of nowhere. I'm your best friend and your guard, i hope you understand that whatever your weird mind has came up with i'll be on your side, i will never betray you. You're like a brother to me" Bruno started talking and, surprisingly, Giorno was buying it.

'Buying it', it was actually the truth. The guard would never do something against his friend, especially if it would hurt him; he wanted just the best for him.

To that, Giorno had no answer. No reasonable answer. Not something he was ready to share after acknowledging how close his guards were becoming with his girlfriend. But he had no choice anymore.

"So? Mind telling me why you're acting this way?" Bruno continued asking while the other kept quiet

"I know you like her and she likes you too, trust me. I could see it in your and her eyes, so i could never interfer in your relationship. Besides, you know who i like and i would never betray her too. I love her too much.

So are you seriously acting like this just out of jealousy?" he asked once again

"Yes, yes i am seriously acting like this. But not out of jealousy. I'm just protecting what's mine" the blond kept his impassive composure

"I don't want anyone to be near her when it's not needed. She has me, so she doesn't need anyone else to keep her company"

"So you're just afraid she'll leave you for someone else?" Bruno said, clearly not expecting such a radical point of view from his friend. But after this question Giorno simply started laughing. Literally wheezing.

"Nonono brother, i know this will never happen" he stopped chuckling "" now his voice sounded like a mad man's one, full of confidence yet sounding aggressive and threatening. Bruno was speechless, the kind and carefree boy he once knew was no longer there, in front of him he found a violent stranger.

"Giorno, this is a bit too much, don't you think? There are plenty of other ways that are less brutal-"

"Bruno, don't worry about this. You have no business with her, right? So why are you worrying so much?" Giorno interrupted his friend once again, slowly losing his patience and trust

"I'm not saying this for me, but you should make wise choices. You're the fucking emperor, you can't just kill people out of nowhere. What will the other citizens think about you?" The guard almost yelled, clearly not understanding his friend's way of thinking

"They don't have to know Bruno. This is just between me, Y/N and whoever decides to be bold enough to take her away from me. I'm the emperor, so nothing could happen to me anyways. It's not that i'm going to make genocides-"

"We'll have to see that" now Bruno sarcastically interrupted his blond friend, gaining a chuckle from him

"Just stop worrying too much. I'm fine, just keep in mind what you can't do and tell the others so that they will know as well" Giorno completed his thoughts, to what the black haired guard huffed

"Why don't you tell them, you're their friend too as i recall" but with these words Bruno simply received a glare from his friend

"Alright alright i understood. Just... Try to be less hot headed Giorno. I don't think she's going anywhere from you, so think about your actions twice before actually doing them" Bruno finished as he started to leave the room

"Bruno" Giorno called "Give me your word, can i trust you?"

"You have my word Giorno"

Meanwhile, you were in your room, still thinking about the discussions you had previously in the tavern.

If Giorno was being so sweet with you, but completely different with the others, then was it really your fault? Why did your presence change him so much?

But what made you curious the most was how he lived before your arrival, you really wished to know more details about your man, but you were too embarrassed to ask him yourself. As for the guards, you didn't really want to talk to them for now for different reasons:

1) today's conversation exhausted you

2) you didn't want to raise suspicion even just by asking some questions. Who knows what they might think?

3) you wanted to keep some distances from them, just to keep them out of trouble if the problem was really you

All of this thinking started giving you a huge headache, that then turned to be stomacache. You were surprised that thinking actually had such a bad effect on you, but then you realised....

It was that time of the month.

You hurried to the "bathroom", if you could call it so, that unfortunately was outside your room. Your sprint out of the room alarmed your guards, who started questioning you on what happened. You just told them you needed a servant, possibly female, and to send her to the toilet where you were.

They did so, and as soon as your servant arrived you started whisper-yelling

"What do you use for that time of the month? I don't want to dirty my clothes or room" and the young girl immediately understood what you were talking about

"Wait a second please, i will bring you some sheets! You will have to put them as the thing you had when you first arrived" she said and quickly left the room

"As the thing i wore when i arrived? She means the panties?" You thought, while waiting for her.

When she came back, you did everything you had to do and left the bathroom, without forgetting to thank your servant.

You always loved the happy face they made when they were treated as people and not as slaves, even little bits of manners and good education are essential to make a good impression.

"Y/N!!! What happened? You ok? Are you hurt?" Guido yelled as soon as he saw you, following you for the whole corridor

"Yes Guido, don't worry. I'm fine now. Just... Girl things, you know. I can't tell you the details" you said, hoping that this sentence would be understood

"Oh" both Guido and Narancia made and ':0' face and let it be.

"Wow, that was embarrassing as fuck. I better go to sleep or i'll just get my ass in other awkward situations. Today luck wasn't on my side" you laughed to yourself, after saying good byes to your friends and heading to your bed.

"Wasn't it Bruno's turn to guard me anyway?"
