Summary: Kurapica asks Killua why he was angry when he told him the secret behind his current powers. What is Killua going to say? Kurapica x Killua drabble
"Why did you seem so angry when I told you the secret behind my current powers?" His voice is as soft, and velvety as ever. Cerulean orbs set on the afar, his hairline low, silky blond bangs covering his eyes, making his expression unreadable. The moisture-laden, chilly night breeze caresses his ivory-white skin.
Drinking in the familiarity of his voice, and the strange newly discovered coldness, the silver haired boy says nothing. There is a comfortable silence filling in the empty spaces between them. It has been six months since the last time they have seen each other. A lot of things happened during their short parting, and both of them have changed, for the better or for the worse, it is still too early to tell.
The casualness of the question makes the younger one of the two frown slightly, indicating he is displeased by the other's negligence of danger and all the other life-threatening factors. The world of reality is dangerous, harshly cold, filled with apathy, people would do anything to get what they want, even if it means to tear out their heart, the only human kindness they have and become a killing machine. Greed, betrayal, murder, theft, robbery, became a familiar and permanent part of their everyday life years ago, the moment the world started to rot in sins.
I don't want to endanger your life. He wants to say, but his pride holds him back. "Betsuni. (Nothing)" Regretting it almost immediately, but refuses to say anything further, or apologize. His dark eyes downcast, covering them with his silver bangs. It has become a habit of his ever since his and Gon's confrontation with Kurapica days ago. He hides his face every time he doesn't want his feeling to be discovered.
"You're so dishonest sometimes, Killua." He states the obvious, seeing through his companion's perfect disguise. The ever-present smile returns, warming up the cold atmosphere, and enclosing the foreign spaces between them.
"So are you…" The ex-assassin smirks at the other's statement.
"Saa…"
Words are needless in their relationship.
A/N: Okay really random, no idea what I was thinking, but oh well. Ignore the grammar, spelling mistakes and typos in the story. Can't write properly without jumping tenses XD
