As I left the building, I saw Kurapika waiting for me. "Wha.." Before I could ask him whether he had eaten his breakfast yet, he turned away quickly. "We have a new job."
"A new job?" I repeated, feeling confused. When did he take the job? Before I could even think about it, my distance between Kurapika and I was getting larger and larger. I ran to him quickly, not wanting to get lost.
The silence between us was getting uncomfortable. In the past, Gon's chatter would be the loudest. Killua would go on and on about the importance of chocolate, and Leorio would be saying that chocolate was not good for our body and even though Killua's body was made of something special to allow him to consume uncountable amounts of chocolate, it was not possible for us 'normal' humans.
Kurapika would not say anything but take notes about the way they communicated. It was research, as he said. I couldn't see anything to research on, and I called him a girly nerd. Which always resulted in my head sprouting a bump later on.
"Are Gon and the others going to be there?" I asked. Kurapika nodded. End of conversation. Wait a moment; was this even called a conversation? I pondered on this so deeply, I didn't even notice Kurapika stop.
"We're here." He said. I pulled the cafe door open, and rushed in. "Gon!" I yelled, ignoring the looks of those sitting in the cafe. Gon turned around from one of those plushy seats and ran towards me. "Alex!" Gon yelled, clinging onto me tightly.
Kurapika smiled. It was only these times that Kurapika smiled. He never showed me a smile like that. That smile was full of happiness and hope. Somehow, I started getting jealous of Gon. Was I getting mad?
"Yo!" Leorio called out to me. "Yo yourself." I replied. "You rude br.." Before he could finish his sentence, Killua kicked him. "Shut up, old man." Killua said, drinking a chocolate milkshake. "You damned Zoldyck!" Leorio yelled, but was silenced by Killua glaring at him. "Damned what?"
Leorio started sweating bullets. "Nothing much." Killua glared at him for a moment before continuing finishing his drink. Leorio sighed and said to me. "Say, have you heard the rumors?" Being curious, I pulled a chair out. "What?" Seating next to Leorio was quite dangerous as I knew he was definitely fooling around with girls. I did not want those girls to come chasing after me for revenge. Repeat. I did not need or want those useless attentions.
"That Illumi and Hisoka is dating." Leorio said calmly.
[Two seconds later]
"What the heck did you do to me, Alex?!" Leorio yelled. I had just spit all of my tea on him. I wasn't the only one to have gotten so shocked. The glass in Killua's hand had cracked, and the glass pieces lay on the floor, causing anyone unfortunate enough to step on them. Killua's hand was bleeding, but he didn't seem to notice. "My brother and Hisoka?!"
"You look quite nice." I commented, trying to calm him down. He looked nice, considering tea had been spit on him. I had seen quite a few, and he looked the best. Perhaps because the tea came from my mouth and the others all was hit by tea from a cup. I really did wonders, didn't I? Just as I was considering the amazing art I made, Leorio yelled so loud that the whole cafe's customers all turned to face us. "What nice? I look absolutely disgusting!"
"Screw that. What did you mean by my brother and him dating?" Killua said, a wild look in his eyes. "What screw? I look disgusting!" Leorio said, but stopped talking. "Talk. I believe that you know that I can make you look more disgusting." Leorio was more than willing to talk.
"I heard the rumors that Hisoka and Illimi were dating. That's all I know." Leorio said. I turned to Killua. "But that means… if he marries…" "Nooo!" Killua yelled. "I don't want big brother marrying him! Illumi's last name would be changed to Hisoka's!" Leorio helpfully said. "Hisoka doesn't have a last name." Killua turned even pale. "Then, Hisoka would be Hisoka Zoldyck? Noo! The Zoldyck's name would be tainted!"
"What do you mean?" Gon said. Killua yelled even louder. "The Zoldycks wouldn't be remembered for being a assasin family! We would be remembered for having a gay couple! The horror!" Suddenly, the waitress's voice came out of nowhere. "We're very sorry to invite you to leave, sirs and madam. The noise level has reached unbearable levels, and the other customers have been requesting that you leave for quite a while now."
Kurapika sighed. He walked towards the waitress and said. "Please excuse my friends. They have been too rude and noisy. I apologise to you on their behalf." The waitress flushed red. "No, it's my fault. Please excuse me!" With that, she left the room quickly, shrieking. "The pretty boy spoke to me! Kyaa!" When she had left the room, Kurapika shot us a glare. "Out. Now."
"But…" Before Killua could finsh his sentence, Kurapika's chained hand started trembling lightly with anger. "OUT. NOW." We quickly left the cafe after footing the bill. An angry Kurapika was definetely scarier than anything else in the world.
