Hiya! How are you guys? Good? Good! Well, I decided to make another HunterxHunter story after my Ghostly Friends one (if you haven't read it, you should cause ya' know) and wanted to make another story with the favorite duo! I decided to make this one GonxKillua because why not? Also, the characters might be a little OOC as it's been a while since I've seen the show, but hopefully as the story progresses, they became a little more non OOC. Please tell me if I should continue or not, it will be greatly appreciated! Please leave a review and favorite! Farewell and enjoy!

Blue Planet Coffee

There are plenty of things that Gon hates and loves. Well, he wouldn't do so well on the hated list because he tried to love everything, but there was some things he just couldn't love, or at least like very little. And on that list were drunk drivers (he had lost a friend a year ago when he was walking the street and got hit by one and died), haircuts (one time Aunt Mito accidently cut one part of his hair way to short and he had to have the rest cut to the short length, let's just say for the next couple of months or so, Gon wasn't the happiest of campers), hating to hate stuff (everything needs to have a little love! At least that's what he thinks…), and seeing people when they're sad (he hated it because he wasn't really good at helping them out. He really wasn't. He sucked with a capital S.

But if you asked Gon about the things he loved, he wouldn't be able to stop. He would start from the cutest of animals to how people talked, and somehow, people really loved that about him. Unlike other people, he didn't carelessly hate and found something to love in everything, even in centipedes which most people hated (they could be cute! If you closed your eyes and turned the other way… that is…), all in all, Gon was an optimist who was also really into animals. He was so into animals he volunteered to work at the animal shelter on the weekends, after school, on holidays, and in the summer all the time unless Aunt Mito had somehow scrounge up enough money to go on vacation somewhere which was rare, maybe once a year or so, but it happened sometimes.

Now, back to what was being said earlier. There was plenty of things that Gon hates and what he loves, but this huge mess created by a puppy who couldn't wait to be let out to use the restroom was really tethering close to his hated list, it also didn't help that he had a really hard test that day in Chemistry and most likely failed, and don't even mention the test in Math, and English, and oh! Guess what? History. He was positive all of his teachers wanted to gang up on him and make him fail the quarter, which was really cruel of them! He did try, but it's not like he can actually get what they're teaching… it's just way too boring!

Anyway, back to the puppy giving him the puppy dog eyes to avoid getting in trouble.

"Nice try Checkers, but it's time out for you." Gon sighed, the beagle whimpering and lowering his head into his paws. "I was about to let you out, you know! But seeing as you already helped yourself to do… your business… I have no choice but for time out!" he said firmly, picking up the dog and putting him in the time-out kennel that they had stationed so the others volunteers knew not to give any of the dogs inside any treats or special attention until they've already been there for ten minutes.

Once that was done, Gon glanced back at the large mess created by Checkers, really not wanting to clean it up but knowing he has to.

"Don't worry, I'll clean it up. You've had a hard day with tests anyway. Why don't you go out and get some fresh air, relax. Maybe find a cute babe you find to your liking?" Leorio said from behind him, startling the teen as he turned around to face him.

"You don't hav—Wait! What do you mean find a cute babe?" Gon asked very flustered. Leorio chuckled as he picked up some paper towels and other supplies Gon didn't really care to look at as he went over to the large pile of dog crap and piss in the middle of the floor and began to clean it up.

"Oh, you know what I mean. You're in your prime, still in high school without a worry and with hot babe's surrounding you." Leorio joked, wiggling his eyebrows to further annoy the teen. "Just go out and do something, and if you find a hot babe you can hit on her or give her my number, either one, but preferably give her my number." Gon rolled his eyes at his friend, but didn't complain any further.

"Okay, I guess…" He looked away, scratching the back of his head awkwardly as Leorio gave him a grin and a big thumbs up.

"That's my boy!" he shouted, making Gon sigh and shake his head. Without looking back, Gon walked out of the animal shelter, telling the receptionist that he was going home for the day before he left.

It was mid-autumn and it was cold. Well, not all-your-limbs-are-going-to-fall-off-from-frostbite cold, more I-will-make-things-miserable-for-you-if-you-don't-wear-a-coat-or-scarf kinda cold. And unthankfully for Gon, he had neither a hat nor a scarf making this very miserable for him since he was just in a tee-shirt, thin jacket, and jeans that had holes in them and looked like they needed to be thrown out soon.

Did Gon mention he hated the cold? Because he hates the cold. He rather prefers the summer where it's warm and he can wear shorts and short sleeved shirts with flip flops and not be cold. He also loved to go swimming in the public pool near his Aunt's apartment which he was a life guard last summer because he wanted to try it out and it was actually pretty fun, except for the girls who kept flirting with him nonstop even though he told them to stop and Leorio kept getting jealous of him because he got all the girls and he only got cranky moms who yelled at him for yelling at their kids to stop running near the edge of the pool.

Gon sighed, maybe he should just go home to get out the cold? The idea tempted him, but at the same time he didn't want to. So he settled for going to a small little coffee shop owned by a lady named Biscuit Krueger who liked to be referred as Bisky for some strange reason.

As he entered the little bell above the door signaled his entrance and alerted Biscuit of his arrival.

"Welcome to Blue Planet Coffee!" she greeted happily, Gon smiling at her in return as he went to go sit at the counter where a few of the other customers were located.

"Hi, Biscuit!" Gon said happily as he sat down. Biscuit pouted a little, crossing her arms over her chest, but said nothing about the name he said since she had gotten used to him not calling her the preferred nickname long ago. She sighed, shaking her head a little, giving Gon a smile.

"Hey, Gon!" she greeted. "Sorry I won't be taking your order or be chatting with you, I have an errand to run." she said a little apologetically. "But don't worry!" she grinned even wider. "This'll give Killua the practice he needs!" Biscuit said happily, suddenly pulling a boy around Gon's age over, surprising him. The boy was barely taller than Gon with fluffy white hair and beautiful blue eyes along with pale skin. He was wearing the waist apron thingy that Gon never learned the name of and a simple long sleeved white shirt that had the sleeves pulled up to his elbows.

"Huh? I've never seen him around here…" Gon commented when he saw the boy. Biscuit nodded her head, finally letting go of the poor boy.

"He just started working here yesterday, and might I say he's already the best coffee maker we have! He's almost better than me and that's saying something!" Biscuit said with pride, Killua blushing a little under her compliment, but saying nothing. "Any who, I have to run! Nice seeing you again Gon!" she said happily as she turned around to grab her coat, shrugging it on.

"Nice seeing you too, Biscuit!" he agreed as she was exiting the shop. He turned his attention to Killua who was looking at him with his bright intelligent looking blue eyes.

"So, what do you want?" Killua asked.

"Just an espresso, please." Killua nodded and started making it. After a few moments of silence, Gon started trying to make a conversation. "So, how old are you?" Killua glanced up for a moment, his blue eyes studying Gon for those brief moments.

"16." Came the short reply.

"Cool! Me too! What grade are you in?"

"Junior."

"What school?"

"York New Private School of Excellence." Gon was a little surprised at hearing this seeing as York New Private School of Excellence was a school known for kids of rich families to attend, and apparently the tuition was very high too.

"Really? I go to Hunter High, I think it's just across the street from York New, right?" Gon asked watching as Killua poured his espresso in a small cup and handed to him.

"Yeah, it is." he replied as he started to clean some of the dirty cups and plates. There was a few moments of awkward silence as Gon tried to find something else to say.

"What's your favorite coffee?" Gon asked, immediately finding his words stupid as he said them. Killua raised an eyebrow at him, his blue eyes looking slightly amused as the corners of his mouth twitched upwards.

"Caramel Frappuccino." he replied as he looked back down to his task.

"That's cool…" Gon said trailing off as he sipped at his coffee trying to find other things to say. "What's York New like?" he finally ended up asking. Killua shrugged slightly, not bothering to look up.

"It's alright, I guess. I mean other than the uniforms and homework, it's cool. Unlike Hunter High we get a free period either right before Lunch and sometimes we go on field trips to important places. Other than that, it's pretty cool if you get past the idea of it being a school." he said as he sat down the last cup and started putting the dishes away in the cabinet behind him.

"That sounds cool, better than Hunter High, at least." Gon commented as he gave Killua a smile. Killua gave another shrug, but said nothing. "So, is there anything you want to be when you grow up? Well, other than working in Blue Planet Coffee, that is?" Killua gave a small smile at this when he turned around after he put all the cups and plates away, now wiping the counter clean.

"Never really thought about it…" he muttered in reply. Gon raised an eyebrow at him.

"Never thought about? Oh, come on! You probably have! You just don't want to tell me, is that it?" Killua didn't answer. "Fine, I'll tell you what I want to be and you'll have to tell me no matter how embarrassing it is!" Gon demanded, smiling cheekily at the white haired teen who gave a small glare in reply but didn't object. "I want to travel the world one day and see things that no one has ever seen before." he confessed. It was a literal dream of his ever since he was a kid. Before Granny died they had a little more money because she would get her retirement check every month so they were able to rent this little cabin in the woods for a weekend in the summer. Every time they went, Gon would explore the surrounding woods for hours until Aunt Mito had to somehow find him and pull him back for dinner. Afterwards he would wait till Aunt Mito and Granny were asleep so he could sneak out and go to this cliff he had found and watch the stars above.

He loved it, and he loved exploring even more, so when he was little he decided that no matter what, he would go around the world and explore places people have never been to.

"Fun," Killua commented with a nod as he looked at Gon's empty espresso cup with a raised eyebrow, and when he shook his head, Killua took it and started cleaning the cup.

Gon nodded as he crossed his arms on the countertop and leaned forward expectantly.

"So, what about you?" he urged, Killua looked up at him with his famous raised eyebrow expression. "Come on, it can't be that embarrassing. What is it?" Gon whined, Killua sighing as he started to wipe the cup dry.

"I want to be a pianist. Happy?" he asked, Gon nodding.

"See, that wasn't so bad, now was it?" Killua gave him a sweet smile, the biggest smile Gon had seen from him so far.

"It was murderous." he replied in a sickly sweet voice, smile instantly dropping after he said that as he turned around to put the cup away. Gon sighed and shook his head, still smiling as he looked at the white haired teen in amusement. He stood up and placed some cash on the counter just as Killua turn back to him, raising an eyebrow at him once again. "Leaving?" he asked, Gon nodding.

"Unfortunately, yes. I would love to stay, but you see, someone has to make dinner." he said, about to turn around to leave. "Nice meeting you Killua! Hope to see you around!" he said waving as Killua took the money and put in the cash register.

"Bye." Was all he said before Gon found himself outside of Blue Planet Coffee once again cold.
