Yaya thought it would have been a good idea to take her boyfriend to the christmas parade. Yes, she thought. Why does she keep forgetting that her boyfriend's name is Killua fricking Zoldyck?
"Everyone is eager for it to begin, ne Yaya?" He smiled at her as they held hands. He then suddenly scowled. "FUCK THIS SHIT! WHEN DOES THIS START?! OH GOD, this is B-O-R-I-N-G!"
He was right about the crowd being eager for it to begin. Most people were standing, some having brought along chais, and some sitting in their vehicles parked all along the parade route. There were many children, many holding bags to collect the candy that would be tossed out to them.
There were venders pushing their carts up and down the street and selling souvenirs and snacks like popcorn, cotton candy and chocolate. Some have brought their own food, though. Yaya made sure to bring at least 30 chocolaterobot-kuns for her boyfriend. The amount of chocolate the boy could eat in one day was astounding.
Parked across the street, she spotted Gon and his father and aunt who had the idea to bring several boxes of pizza, Gon even offering some to those closest by them. Ging wasn't amused, probably wanted all the pizzas for himself.
"Killua, it's not going to be bad," she assured her fuming boyfriend. "Give it a chance, I promise you're going to love it."
The sound of 'Jingle Bells!' caught everyone's attention. All eyes looked down the street as the parade officialy began with the approach of the rival highschool of Hunter High.
Killua smiled widely as his cheeks turned red. "Look! They're opening with the students of our rival highschool! Putting those losers in front is proof that this is going to be terrible quality."
"Wow." Yaya said, squinting. "Look at their drum majorette. The one with the golden blond hair. He kinda looks like you, Lulu."
Killua raised an eyebrow. "I don't see any resamblance. I'm prettier than him."
"No, really! You two could be fraternal twins!"
Killua deadpanned. "My parents were only blessed with five children, no twins included. Sorry to ruin any perverted twin fantasy you may have had."
Yaya sweatdropped.
"EQUALITY FOR ALL!" Neon rode by, screaming in a megaphone in one hand and waving with her free hand. She was accompanied by some of her followers who were standing at attention in two straight lines. "Difference holds society back! LETS UNITE TOGETHER AND BECOME ONE!"
"How nice. Does she even know that the 'become one' part sounded really suggestive?!"
An array of horses trot by with riders dressed in cowboy attire.
"Aw, adorable! Those bastards better not drop their SHIT on the street! Horses are so smelley and disgusting! And why can't I stand on their back while riding them?! Nothing dangerous about it, right?!"
"Ahem."
Killua turned to see an annoyed adult man with a 'Friendship is magic!' T-shirt.
"I mean horses in THIS world, not those stupid cartoon ponies, you stupid *brony!"
The man just rolled his eyes.
Yaya frowned. "Killua, can you stop being a jerk and insulting everyone?"
Killua tilted his head in a snooty fashion. "When I see something here that can be enjoyed, I will consider it."
Yaya facepalmed. To think about the fact that her friends called her a lucky girl to date Killua... If only they knew.
"Hey, you two!"
The couple look over to see Knuckle next to his pickup truck not too far down the crowd. He was staring daggers at both of them. Killua was about to flip the man off, but Yaya grabbed his hand firmly.
"Would you get your child please?!"
The couple then noticed that the top of the truck's cab was being hit and scratched by a bouncing limb, which was caused by the intentional kicking of a small boy up within the small tree planted by the sidewalk right next to it.
Killua batted his eyelashes. "Sir, that angel doesn't belong to us!"
A woman then ran over and snatched the boy out of the tree. "What did I tell you about behaving yourself?! We're going back home!'
The boy kicked and screamed as he was being carried away.
Killua was furious. "That bastard thought we were that BRAT'S parents?"
"Well, a lot of 14 year old teenages like us are having kids these days..."
"Our child would never be THAT UGLY!"
Yaya couldn't help but feel happy. A week before she began dating Killua, she discovered that he had somewhat of an inferiority complex, expecially about his appearance, which he used part of his attitude to mask. She was happy that the love and care she had for the boy had succeeded into helping him see that he is good looking.
Of course, there's now the problem that he's insulting other's children because of it. Yaya sighed. One character development at a time...
Now it's the Hunter High Marching Band's turn to go by, performing the tune of 'Frosty the snowman'.
Killua cupped his hands to his mouth and shouted, "For God's sake! You're HUNTERS for crying out loud! MARCH like it!"
Finally, it's the turn of the big guy. Santa Claus sat on a huge sleigh surrounded by a snowy theme with a little signpost which reads "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" He reached into a bag next to him and pulled out a handful of candy canes.
"Ho! Ho! Ho! Meeeery Christmas, everyone!" He fling the candy out to the crowd.
Suddenly, one of those peppermint hooks whacks Killua in the forehead.
"Oh, dear sweet Jesus Christ." Yaya found herself muttering, feeling utter dread.
"DID THAT FUCKING STUPID FAT UGLY BASTAD JUST DO THAT ON PURPOSE?! I KILL HIM!" Killua roared, about to lunge forward.
Yaya instantly wrapped her arms around her boyfriend to prevent him from running straight over and climbing up the float to beat to death in front of all the innocent children.
This actually brought back memories about their first date where she had to hold Killua back from tackling one of the guests of the Italian restaurant for winking at her. Oh, how the young Zoldyck looked ravishing that day...
Thanks to her, Santa's passage was a safe one and he had a day more to live. The crowd started getting smaller and smaller as everyone went back home.
Killua finally calmed down and looked around. "Naaaaani?! It's already over? I wasted a day of my life!"
Yaya smiled and shook her head. "Let's get you home, Lulu."
She started guiding him back home. "I wasn't too insufferable tonight, was I?" he asked with a tinge of guilt.
"No more than usual. But, even if you were, you know I wouldn't mind."
Killua gave her a tender kiss on the lips, without tongue. He wasn't ready for that yet. "Merry christmas, you masochist."
* A brony is a adult man who's a fan of My little pony. I don't have anything against bronies, but people don't really like them much(and I can imagine Killua not liking them). Bronies ussually cosplay as the my little pony ponies too XD
