Author's notes:
Thanks to those who reviewed so far:
Lyn – Thanks for your insights, comments and hehehe… AMUSING reactions. I really haven't watched the entire series. So the Leorio/Kurapika scene with the bathroom thing, totally came from my hentai mind. Yes, hentai.
Candice – without your Leorio x Kurapika dare, there wouldn't be Leorio x Kurapika pairing in this fic. I hope you enjoyed it. Hehehe… I KNOW how much you "LOVE" it when you see Leorio/Kurapika scenes. *hint hint* Especially the last episode of the series. (not the OAV) *adopts a Killua sly cat look* Hehehe…
Megumi Mikage – don't worry. I have no intention of stopping this fic. Hope you'll enjoy this chapter! Err… don't kill me?
Yomi – yomisama from the hxh mailing list? Wow! I've been following your untitled fic. It's cool! Hope you put up the next chapter soon.
Me – more Gon x Killua… err… funny parts are easier to do. ^0^
Lupercalia – You really think Hisoka and Irumi are good together too? Lyn did you hear that? Hisoka x Irumi rules!!! I'm still struggling with Gon x Killua while Leorio x Kurapika… well, it's coming along *in a singsong voice* somewhere down the road…
Mim – Thanks. I'll do that.
Killuas descendant – well, the chapters are coming along nicely (I hope). I've just got this killer Wednesday schedule every week. 12 hours of school!!! From nine in the morning to nine in the evening! Life is so unfair…
Anonymous – well, I finally got the rest of the chapters out. Sorry for making you wait too long. Gomen ne!!!
kawaii^kitsune!!! – Thanks. I'm continuing it now. The rest are coming, coming….
Sarjhoshino – Thank you very much. The words are just some of the quirks of "always sticking my head up in the clouds" as my mum says. What can I say? I've got an overly active imagination. Hehehehehehehe… *lyn comes in and comments: what an understatement. She's just plain hentai!* Read your fic from the ML. When's the next chapter?
Yukitsu – err… I don't really know what to say. I'm confused. Is this review for this fic or some other fic? This was the first review when I've only posted one chapter.
To the stars of this fic:
Irumi, Hisoka, Gon, Killua, Kurapika and Leorio – Thanks!!! Hehehehe… But that doesn't mean that I won't continue torturing you guys in this fic! BWAHAHAHAHAH!!!

"ONIISAN!!!"
Hisoka felt like a bucket of ice cold water had been dumped on him. Just what he needed: Irumi's protective little brother… He effortlessly lifted Irumi off his lap and gently placed him on the bed. Irumi was still in a daze. A soft whimper escaped the assassin's lips, enough for only Hisoka to hear, as he lost the warmth of the magician's body. Then Hisoka stood up picked up his discarded shirt and walked out, ignoring the red-faced Killua by the door.
Oh well. There'll be other opportunities to coax the young assassin and for him to make love to Irumi then finally getting the boy out of his system. Maybe he'll be luckier next time. Hisoka repeated that to himself over and over but deep down, the wild beating of his heart denied it and called him a liar.
Liar, liar, liar, liar… LIAR!!!
Damn… he needed a cold shower right about now.
~*~
Killua surveyed the scene before him and instantly turned crimson. Had it been Leorio and Kurapika, he would have had the sly cat look on his face but… this is Hisoka and Irumi he was dealing with right? Right?
This was something he just couldn't take lightly. Despite the fact that he was scared to death of his brother, he was still family. And that alone is reason enough for him to meddle in this and make Irumi realize that this had to stop.
Hisoka gently put Irumi on the bed before going to pick his shirt up and walked towards him. He winced when he saw Irumi's bruised lips and neck and the deep half moons on Hisoka's shoulders.
He gulped when the magician brushed past him, he had thought that he was in big trouble. He let out a sigh the moment he felt Hisoka turn round the corner.
Now there was only Irumi to worry about… Uh oh… He glanced over to the bed. Irumi was looking at him with this strange expression on his face. He really couldn't tell what it was. This was new to him. And so is seeing Irumi conveying more emotions than he usually does.
What will dad say, when he finds out that one of his sons had been bewitched by a magician?
~*~
Irumi stared up at the ceiling still not moving from his position on the bed from when Hisoka left, even way after Killua had finally decided to leave. Killua looked worried. Who could blame him? This was Hisoka they were dealing with. Making a deal with Hisoka is like making a pact with the devil himself.
Part of Irumi was disappointed by Killua's interruption but the rest of him was glad that his brother came when he did. He needed to think. Whilst Hisoka was around, thinking would always become the last thing on his mind.
This is very unlike him, to let Hisoka manipulate him like this, to toy with him even. Maybe it's time that he returned the favor.
~*~
Kurapika was still fuming about what he nearly let slip. Sure he had half a mind to beat the half-naked Leorio up but then he had stopped. He just couldn't help but admire the man's physique. The well-shaped muscles and the lean body told of regular visits to the gym and constant exercise. One could not help but be awed that there was no visible fat on Leorio's body.
When Leorio spoke, at first, Kurapika hadn't noticed but when it finally sank in, horrified as he was, he did the first thing that came to mind. POW!!! CRACK!!! CRASH!!! KABOOM!!!
And Leorio was down for the count.
Kurapika sighed. That was definitely not the way to the man's heart… Did he just think that? What the hell was wrong with him? Kurapika shook his head. He can't be acting like a girl with a crush, can he? Can he? This vacation just got weirder.
~*~
"Of all the rotten luck," Hisoka grumbled to himself as he got off the elevator.
He hadn't totally anticipated on meeting Gon and his friends, especially Irumi's brother, Killua. The boy just seemed to have a nose for when he was about to get anywhere with Irumi. Hisoka stopped. Maybe it was better that Killua keep interrupting them. He had a feeling that he wouldn't be able to bear having Irumi hate him if something irreversible happens between them. He went on walking with his hand on his chin in deep thought.
He would even hate himself. Hisoka stopped again. Hate himself? Aye, maybe he would… Hisoka shook his head. What was wrong with him? Since when was he concerned with anyone else other than himself? This isn't like him at all. Hisoka banged his head on the wall. Had Irumi somehow cast a spell on him and bewitched him?
He spent the next few hours just thinking about the answers to his questions. What Irumi had done to him was a mystery. Even he couldn't figure it out. He was already having his sixth or seventh shot of whatever it was that he ordered. Everything was a blur to him except for the young assassin…
Then it dawned to him that the simplest answer to all his questions was right in front of him all along. It may not be like his normal self but what the heck. Maybe something good may come out of it. Maybe something he had been searching for all this time perhaps? He gulped down the last shot and rushed to the elevator.
He was going to tell Irumi.
~*~
Killua didn't know what to make of Irumi's relationship with Hisoka. He was worried about Irumi, that's for sure but his aniki was very much taken with Hisoka. The darn magician must be a real charmer to coax a lot of reactions from the unresponsive Irumi.
He had been so deep in his thoughts that he hadn't noticed that he, Gon, Kurapika and Leorio had already gone through dinner and a walk on the beach. Now they were getting ready for bed. Gon had been throwing him concerned looks. Killua frowned. It was terrible of him to keep making Gon worry. He should find a way to make it up to him.
Gon had already wished him good night and had snuggled under the covers when Killua had an idea. He crept up to Gon's bed, slipped under the covers and put his arms around him.
"Good night, Gon."
~*~
As soon as he got to the door to his room, Hisoka jerked it open. Then immediately turned crimson. This was not a sight he was ready to see just yet.
Irumi was wrapped in a towel with his wet hair clinging to every curve of his body, a disheveled look that can only be adopted after taking a shower. The look and blush on Irumi's face would've been amusing had the situation been different. Had Hisoka been himself, he would've taken advantage of the situation immediately.
Surprise was evident on the young assassin's face as he accidentally let go of the towel. Hisoka's mind reeled.
Oh man…

Author's notes:
Well, thanks for reading. Now to show your appreciation, please review. Go ahead. I know you want to. Hehehehe…
I just wanna get this clear that this isn't something like an adventure story. I can't do adventure stories well. Romance, I do just fine.
I feel so sleepy now. Haven't gotten enough sleep since Tuesday. Darn party and I still hate going to school… *grumble* *grumble*
*leaves to watch Irumi stomping on poor Hisoka for being a hentai* Hehehehe…
