Who is the owner?
Disclaimer: Ok, I'd be really glad if I could say HunterxHunter is actually mine, but you'd know as well as me it's a lie. Indeed, it belongs to Yoshihiro Togashi sama. (Of course I'm jealous, but who isn't?)
Warning: It's a Yaoi story, which involves –in fact it is- a male/male relationship –something I particularly don't consider strange since it's a HxH fanfic.
Pairings: GonxKillua and –it's about to begin– KurapikaxLeorio. There are also some HisokaxGon hints –not in this chapter, though.
Chapter two: And those who give advices...
"So what? Is Gon officially your partner?" Killua blushed deeply as he looked away frowning.
"Gon has always been my partner, hasn't he? Because he is my best friend…" He replied trying to sound uninterested – even when he felt full of happiness after hearing the question.
"You know as well as me what I'm talking about." The blond haired young man said crossing his arms beyond his chest. "Are you currently a couple?"
Killua kept in silence for a while. His face's expression became worried.
He looked around at that little park. They were staying at a hotel in York shin. It was the same hotel in which he tried to confess his feelings to the small hunter. And their two older friends have arrived just a few hours earlier.
"Well…" He eventually muttered "something happened… three days ago… but… after that we haven't talked about the matter at all."
"What went between you two then?" Kurapika asked curiously.
"Ahum… I… I told him I was… his" The kuruta's eyes became wider "and… he said he was… also mine." The white haired boy's cheeks were dyed by a bright red color.
"Jajajaja" The taller teenager laughed loudly at those words.
"What's so funny?!" Killua exclaimed angrily as he stood up and gripped his fists.
"Don't you see?" Kurapika asked in response as he wiped some tears produced by the laughs. "Gon is obviously in love with you, Killua. But he is so naïve that he can't even realize on that fact…" The young assassin blushed even more as the words were spoken by the chain guy.
They kept in silence for a while; the blond haired man was still grinning.
"I don't want to lose him." Killua eventually stated.
"Why do you think that could ever happen?" Kurapika looked down at his companion and noticed the worried and sad expression on his face.
"I'm afraid he could run away from me if I told him the truth… but if I stay at his side –even silently without telling him how I truly feel towards him – he could become bored of me… or even worse… I could eventually…" He stopped looking for the right words "hurt him…"
Kurapika sighed as he thought of a good advice. That little boy at his side might be really tangle minded.
"I know you have some problems about your past. But you must surpass them… it doesn't matter what Irumi told you before." Killua's eyes widened at the mention of his older brother "I'm sure you will never put Gon in danger, nor hurt him." The black lists' hunter turned his head to dedicate a nice smile to his friend "And I'm also sure he knows that too."
The assassin's green eyes gleamed brightly before they were hidden by some white locks.
"Thank you…" He muttered as he looked down and a little smile appeared on his face.
"Leorio, tell me" Gon muttered shyly while they walked down the street after buying some refreshes at a shop.
"What's it?" The medicine student asked rising an eyebrow before the sudden nervousness in his little friend.
"Have you ever been in love with someone?"
Leorio almost fell down when he heard such a question. Gon was really asking something like that to him?!
"Well… Of, of course" He stuttered as a certain figure appeared in his mind and his cheeks turned a light pink "but, why are you asking me that?"
"Because, I guess I currently feel like that…as if I were in love" The tall man almost fell once again. He never figured out he would be the person who would talk with Gon about that topic.
"And who is the fortunate one?" he eventually questioned trying not to look straight at the spiky haired boy.
"Killua" He said simply and Leorio eventually fell down to the ground. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Nothing at all" The doctor's aspirant replied as he got up and sweatdropped. "And did you talk to him about this?" he asked trying to look serious.
"Something like that." The brown eyed hunter said in response "Three days ago he woke up because of a nightmare at the middle of the night." He explained "He was very upset, so I tried to calm him down. Once he became quiet, he told me he wanted to stay at my side from now on…" Leorio grinned. He –as well Kurapika – had realized on Killua's intention a long while ago.
"And what? Do you agree, Gon?" The tall man questioned. He knew perfectly the answer, though.
"What are you asking, Leorio?!" Gon exclaimed as his eyes widened and he stopped walking to face his companion. "Of course I want to stay with him! Killua is the most important person for me!" He shouted.
"Calm down, Gon…" Leorio replied "I knew you'd react like this, I just wanted to see it."
The spiky haired boy blinked twice a little confused.
"So… did you know what I feel towards Killua?" Gon asked. His voice tone had lowed a bit.
"Of course I did. And I've noticed a lot of other things…" Leorio began.
"Just like I've noticed how you feel about Kurapika…" The black haired boy muttered as his older friend kept in silence astonished.
Author's notes.
I hope you liked this chapter. Actually, it seems not to have any sense, but I consider important Kurapika and Leorio's roles in the story.
For those who consider themselves Hisoka fans, don't worry he's going to appear soon.
But I tell it to you from this point: I do hate HisokaxIrumi, so don't expect any hint about that pairing to be placed on my story.
Any doubt, complain and/or suggest, just send me a review!
