Hunter x Hunter isn't mine.
Even the Storm Passes (Chapter VI)
Lightning flashed. Thunder rumbled.
Neon shut her eyes as tightly as possible and hugged herself like a child left out in a very dark and cold forest.
When is this storm going to stop? she thought ambiguously. Her tears finally cascaded down her porcelain skin. Her shoulders trembled as she strained her sobs. But it only made her breathing difficult.
A shaky breath.
And a warm hand on her face, wiping her tears dry.
She looked up. Soft and gentle eyes of the most beautiful hue of blue she has ever seen. It was him.
Kurapika.
And a look of understanding. More so, of warmth.
She subconsciously grasped his hand and held it close to her chest while at last, letting her tears freefall down her face, her eyes already sore from the amount of fluid she released.
He sat down beside her and withdrew his hand from her grip. He placed it instead on her back before stroking it. For her comfort.
"Gomen ne… Kurapika.. you must think low of me now after what I did but…" a hiccup. She did not finish what she was saying.
A mere shake of his head brought his blonde hair to sway lightly.
"Gomen. Gomen. Gomen." She repeated.
"Hush now, Neon-sama." He uttered in a tone enough to warm her shivering being. He tilted her chin so she would look at him. "There's no sense in crying. Besides, it doesn't suit you."
"But you're―" she was cut short when his soft lips came in contact with hers again. Eyes of pink widened for some time from the unexpected course of action.
The fortuneteller finally relaxed as she stationed her left hand on his right shoulder and the right on his left chest, just above his methodically beating heart.
But the pace seems to quicken with her touch.
Guiding her with an arm supporting her spine, he laid her down again on the soft mattress.
Their gazes steadied with each other.
Neon liked the overwhelming feeling of his lips firmly but gently brushing against her own. She silently wished for time to stop while staring at his equally half-opened azure eyes.
Taking note of lust misting his chessylites for eyes, her next words sparked the beginning of their first consensual experience.
"Neon-sama…" he uttered as if waiting to hear any sort of go signal.
"We will." she replied while sitting up so she won't be lying on her nightgown.
He nodded in compliance before cautiously taking off the chains on his hands, the metal links clinking against each other as he threw it down the floor. He lifted the hem of her dress to take it off. He gave her another open-mouthed kiss as he lay her, with only her undergarments down again and climbed on top of the lass.
And they proceeded with their collusion. Collusion for her father, at least, in case he finds out that his only daughter had an affair with one of his most trusted servants; the newly appointed head bodyguard of his daughter.
Outside, the rain continued to pour down and cleanse the whole city though not as heavy as before.
A/N: glooms I know. This chapter is boring. I don't know how to write lemon… TT but for some reason, I liked the last sentence. Please r & r! arigatou!
