"This place is beautiful," Gon murmured. "I kinda wanna stay here forever…"

"I know what you mean," Killua responded from the bathroom. The two of them were back in the Valkyrie's apartment. Once the third sun had set Ging and the others had turned in for the night. Ryder, Pariston, and Ging were all staying in Genesis for a last minute scramble to get everything in order for the rising of Osiris.

Gon and Killua had been offered a place to stay, but Killua had suggested they go back to the apartment. That way they'd be closer to Bodhisattva. As he'd disclosed to Gon, an Unseelie Knight named Netero had been occupying the city for months now, waiting for him to wake up so he could drag him back to the court.

Killua glared into his bathroom mirror as he toweled his hair dry. He really wished that stupid old man wasn't here. Gon had just come to terms with all this, and now he was already being thrown into a bunch of Unseelie bullshit.

The Valkyrie sighed, and tossed his hand towel onto the rack. The glass tiles on the bathroom floor were slick with condensation from the shower, and a light steam was still settling from the heat of the water.

Killua glanced at himself in the mirror. He'd never get over the change in his tattoos. Just seeing the pale blue coloration made his chest stir with pride and a newfound sense of freedom. Gon had given him that freedom. And tomorrow, Killua would go with Gon to tell Netero to fuck off, and the hybrid would have his freedom as well.

The Valkyrie fluffed up his damp hair one last time, and shut the bathroom light off. He padded across the bedroom to join Gon where he lay splayed across the sheets. The horned male was propped up against the pillows with his arms folded behind his head, busied with gazing at the stars through the huge window.

Nirvana was humid at night, and Gon was wearing nothing but a pair of Killua's undershorts. Seeing Gon wearing his clothes sent a spark through Killua's chest. He'd be stuck doing so for the foreseeable future, and the Valkyrie wasn't opposed.

The french doors to the balcony were cracked open, allowing a gentle breeze to rustle the gossamer curtains and brush the strands of Gon's half-dry hair that hung into his eyes. Warmth stirred in Killua's chest, and he hopped onto the bed next to Gon. They lay side by side, staring up at the ceiling.

A crystalline light fixture hung there. It resembled an explosion of falling stars. Moonlight refracted against the crystals and sent specks of silvery light across the room in scattered, randomized patterns. Nirvana was silent at night, unlike Hallah or Yorknew City. Once again, Killua found himself in awe at how peaceful this planet was.

He agreed with Gon. He wouldn't mind staying here forever.

"If I can," Killua thought out loud, "I'd like to bring Alluka here one day."

"Yeah?" Gon prompted.

"She's been through so much. I want to show her that peace like this is possible."

"What's Alluka like?"

A bittersweet smile dusted Killua's features, "She's the nicest person you'll ever meet. She's shy, and always hides behind me when things get too overwhelming. Her whole life she's been locked up in a tower on Kukuroo Mountain, because my parents are too protective over Nanika. I want to show Alluka the world. And everything she was forced to miss out on."

"You're a great big brother, Killua," Gon said with an audible grin.

"Thanks but… not really. I left Alluka behind. She's the one who convinced me to leave in the first place, but I really should have brought her with me. She's all alone on that damn mountain… in that damn tower. I already know that Illumi's trying to pull his bullshit on her. I can only imagine what she's been through these past two years…"

Gon reached his hand across the quilts to lace his fingers with Killua's. "It'll be okay," he reassured, "We'll rescue Alluka and make it all right again."

"You're always so optimistic," Killua chuckled. He turned his head to gaze over at Gon. "I missed that."

Gon sensed Killua's eyes on his face, and glanced at him. Their eyes met, and Killua took the time to re-memorize Gon's face; the curve of his cheekbones, the shades of fire in his eyes. He'd come so close to losing him, and he'd never let Gon out of his sight again.

"I missed looking at you," Gon said softly. He reached out with his other hand to brush a knuckle along Killua's cheekbone.

"Same here," the Valkyrie agreed, covering Gon's hand with his own. He pulled Gon's hand to his lips, and placed a slow kiss to the center of his palm. He cracked his eyes open to find Gon's gaze trained on his face, and a loving look in his eyes. "We'll rescue Alluka," Killua declared.

Gon nodded, a smile tickling his lips.

"But first," the Valkyrie pointed out, "We'll have to take care of Netero."

The smile faded. "You're right."

"...Are you nervous?" Killua asked. He sure as hell was. How would Netero respond when Gon refused to return with him to the Unseelie Court?

"A little bit," Gon admitted, "But at the same time, not really. I'm almost… excited to see him."

Killua quirked a brow.

"I mean, when I do, I'll be able to officially refuse my position as Prince and my role in the Succession War," Gon explained. "It'll feel set in stone, ya know? No going back. The Unseelie will know for themselves that I don't want to join them."

"Do you think you'll regret it?" Killua asked, his voice almost inaudible. He thought about how he'd felt after leaving Kukuroo Mountain, and even how he felt to this day. It had felt incredible at first… but after a few days he'd begun to be weighed down by the knowledge that he belonged nowhere. He'd given up his one true home. He'd left his beloved sister behind.

"No," Gon responded immediately, determination sparking to life in his eyes. He gazed at Killua, "I won't regret it. My birthplace is Whale Island, not the Court. And my home is with you, not at the side of a Queen who isn't mine."

Killua hid his eyes beneath his bangs, silvery tears already beginning to line them. His heart sang like a bird in his chest, he didn't think his body would be able to hold it. "Am I really worth all that trouble?" he laughed, though it bordered on a sob. A happy sob.

"Yes," Gon declared. He reached his hand across the sheets to cup Killua's cheek. He tilted the assassin's chin up to reveal his eyes from their silvery veil. "I left Whale Island to try and find my place in this world. And I found something so much better. I found you, and all the other incredible people we met along the way. I'll admit… that throughout the course of this mission with Ging I've been scared of what would happen after I finally learned the truth. I've been chasing after him my whole life, and I didn't know what I'd do with myself once I finally achieved my goal. But I was being stupid again. I may have found out the truth behind my blood, but my purpose in life was never residing in my veins. It's something I decide for myself. I thought that chasing down Ging was everything I'd ever wanted, but now I see that someone else is a lot more important."

"Gon…" Killua whined, already covering his reddened face with a hand.

"Killua is my purpose. I want to stay by his side forever, and my new goal in life is to make sure that he never loses his smile again."

"Gods… dammit, I knew it was coming but I still…" Killua peeked at Gon from between his fingers. "You already know."

"I'm really embarrassing," Gon giggled.

Killua laughed and wiped the tears from his eyes, "Yeah. You are. I guess… My purpose in life is the same."

"It is?" Gon perked up, his eyebrows turning up and his amber eyes getting all wobbly.

"Yeah," Killua grumbled, still unable to meet those eyes straight on. "Don't make me say it…"

"Killua?"

"Fine, just– don't look all sad like that, gods!" Killua huffed and gathered his thoughts. "I wanna be with you too. We already agreed to be mates, didn't we? You already know how I feel…"

"Killuaaa," Gon whined, surging forward and wrapping the assassin up in a crushing embrace. "You never agreed to be my mate! Thank you! I accept!"

"Hey! I– ugh. Fine," Killua sputtered. He wiggled his arms out of Gon's tight squeeze and wrapped them around his shoulders. "I don't want to lose you ever again," Killua mumbled. "I… I know I said that I wanted to wait but…" I want to tie us together. I almost lost my chance to call Gon my mate. Who knows when that could happen again?

Killua sat up in the bed, bringing Gon with him. The hybrid released him from his hold, and sat patiently across from him. Those eyes shimmered in the dark… they looked hopeful, and shone with a degree of commitment that Killua had never seen before in his life… not to mention directed towards him.

"To hell with all those bullshit traditions," Killua declared. "I want," he summoned his courage and looked Gon in the eye, "I want you to be my mate. Right now."

Gon's eyes blew wide, and Killua's face flushed bright pink. Fuck, that was so unceremonious–

"We can do that?" Gon asked, his voice soft and hopeful beyond description.

"Well… yes," Killua said, "It won't be official until we're recognized by the Chieftain but… I can just elope."

"Do I need to get you a ring?!" Gon gasped, buzzing with excited energy.

"No, nothing like that," Killua said quickly, "All the bullshit like that is wrapped up in the ceremony and stuff… but we don't technically have to… do anything. Anything– anything aside from– from securing the bond, or… yeah."

"Killua!" Gon cried out, wrapping him up in another crushing hug. "I'd love to be your mate."

"Really?" Killua choked out, "Right– right now? Even without the ceremony? Behind my parents' backs?"

"Yes," Gon answered dedicatedly, "I want you in every way and every form. If you want to be my mate right now then I agree no matter what. Anything you want, Killua. I'll give you anything."

Killua couldn't find the words to respond… His chest swelled up with an influx of love and relief. He locked his arms around Gon's neck and buried his face in his shoulder. Gon was his. It was official. He'd never felt so happy in his entire life.

"Killua, marry me!" Gon all but shouted.

"Huh?" the Valkyrie choked out.

"I don't have a ring yet, but I'll get you one! You're my mate, I want to get married. We can do it on Whale Island! Or somewhere else if you want to wait, it doesn't matter if we wait for ten years, we'll still be engaged– Will you marry me when all this is over and done?"

"That's how– how humans mate, right? Valkyrie royalty marry but that's just to tie the selected mate into the royal bloodline…"

"It's a whole lot more than that," Gon announced, "Getting married means you promise yourself to that person. You'll be together no matter what, through hardship, disease, and pain. Till death do us part."

Killua's heart pounded in his chest. His tail found its way to Gon's waist. "Yes. I want to be with you for life."

"Really?" Gon gasped.

"Yes," Killua repeated.

"Thank you," Gon said, his voice suddenly thick with tears. "Thank you, Killua. I'll take care of you, I promise."

"So… we're married now?" Killua asked. He wasn't sure how it worked…

"Not yet!" Gon laughed. He pulled back from the embrace, swiping his fingers under his eyes. "You have to have a ceremony to get married, but since we agreed to do it we're engaged now."

"Oh. How does… the ceremony work?" Killua asked. The Valkyrie Mating Ceremony was the only thing that came to mind… that just revolved around laying claim to a selected Partner.

"You get a certified person to swear you over the book of your choosing, with selected friends and family as witnesses," Gon explained. "You also exchange rings and vows, and there's all this fun stuff with cake and veils and flowers. It's like a celebration! A celebration of unity, and new additions to the two joined families."

"That sounds… nice," Killua murmured, smiling into his lap. His cheeks were turning pink like the total sap that he was.

"I'll get you an engagement ring as soon as I can! It shows everyone that we're going to get married," Gon gushed. "You can pick one for me too, if you want!"

"Where do you get engagement rings?" Killua asked.

"Anywhere!" Gon announced, "It can be any ring that you want, it's the symbolism that counts."

"Huh. That's pretty cool," Killua said. "I wanna be… married. To you."

"Awwwww, Killua I love you," Gon cried out. He leaned forward and kissed the tip of the Valkyrie's nose. Killua squinted, blood rushing to his cheeks. "Aunt Mito's gonna kill me," Gon snorted, "For getting engaged when I'm barely even twenty."

"Is that a bad thing?' Killua asked.

"Nope! Not if it's Killua!" Gon declared.

The Valkyrie huffed, he should have expected a response like that. "What's Aunt Mito like?" he asked, returning Gon's question from earlier.

The hybrid hummed against Killua's hair. He flopped down against the pillows, pulling the Valkyrie along with him. "She's the best person ever! Besides you, obviously." Killua snorted. "She's amazing at cooking and fishing!" Gon continued cheerfully, "Her and Abe live in a little house on the top of the hill, it's pretty far from the village! Mito is really kind and always helps other villagers when they're in need! But if you get on her bad side she'll yell a whole lot…"

Killua cackled, "Based on your face you've been on the receiving end of that yelling~"

Gon scratched the back of his head and flashed a sheepish smile, "Uh, yeah… It's no fun. She likes to tell me that I'm 'way too much like my father for my own good.' The person she hates the most is Ging! It's kinda funny, actually. Mito's really good at fixing the gutters and the gears in the well! But she's not so good at cooking, Abe makes a whole lot of fun out of her for it."

"I bet you get your cooking skills from Mito," Killua teased.

"Hey! I'm really good at cooking!" Gon protested.

"Sure you are~"

"I am! You just don't know cause I've never cooked for you before!"

"A likely story."

Gon puffed his cheeks out. "You're what Mito would call a stinker!" he accused, pinching Killua's nose between two knuckles. The Valkyrie giggled, shocking Gon's prying hands off his face.

"Do you think Mito will like me?" Killua asked, smile fading a little. What would Mito think, seeing her sweet little Gon come home with a literal Dragonite Valkyrie in tow? What if Killua was too standoffish? What if he messed up the first impression? What if Mito didn't think that he was an acceptable mate?

"Of course she'll like you!" Gon declared, sounding utterly shocked that Killua would even see the need to ask that question in the first place.

"You think so?"

"I know it," Gon reassured. "She'll see what I see in you. She'll see why I love you so much."

"Gon," Killua whined.

The hybrid smiled, and scooted across the bed to press a gentle kiss against Killua's lips. "She'll insist on you joining our family," Gon murmured. "If I hadn't proposed to you then she would have done it for me. Mito will be dying for the day when she can call you Killua Freecss. And I already am."

The Valkyrie's heart fluttered in his chest. He wanted that. He wanted to be Gon's.

"Killua," Gon whispered, his breath shallow against Killua's lips. "I want our relationship to be permanent. Can I make you my mate?"

"Yes," Killua breathed.

Gon slid his fingers into the silken hair on the back of Killua's neck, and lightly brushed their lips together. It was a feather of a kiss, so sweet and tender that Killua felt himself melt into a puddle of mush. Gon slid closer, and Killua melted into his embrace as he pulled their bodies together.

The kiss was slow and passionate. It filled Killua's chest with a warmth that spread from the tips of his toes to the ends of his hair. He tossed his arms lazily around Gon's neck, and turned onto his back to pull Gon on top of him. His heart pounded in his chest. Killua felt like he was going to spill over with affection.

Gon tilted his head to the side and deepened the kiss. He slipped his tongue between Killua's lips, and the Valkyrie hummed contentedly into the kiss. He hadn't realized how much he'd missed Gon's taste, and the warmth of his embrace.

They'd only been together for a brief time, and after so long apart it felt like they'd never laid in bed like this before. Killua's skin began to buzz with a need to feel Gon against every inch of his skin. Before Killua had been riddled with nerves, too overwhelmed by the prospect of Gon returning his feelings to enjoy the time they had. Now he knew what it felt like to lose, and he needed to press closer than he had before. He needed to remap Gon's body, cement it in his mind, and repeat the process over and over again.

Heat rose between them, and gasps for air rang out between kisses. Killua's hands gripped Gon's shoulders, then his arms. They slid across his chest, brushed along his stomach, and reached around his back; never staying still, always jumping about in a daze of arousal tinged with the bite of disbelief.

Killua spread his legs and braced his knees around Gon's hips. He gasped in pleasure when Gon's weight pressed down on his groin, and a shock of electricity shot down to his lower belly. Killua flipped their positions, and Gon hummed against his lips as he followed the Valkyrie's lead and flopped against the pillows.

Killua hovered over him, and broke the kiss to nuzzle his face into the crook of Gon's neck, finally scratching the incessant itch to claim the hybrid with his scent. His tail swayed behind him, slapping lazily against the sheets and twining around Gon's ankles. He ran the edge of his jaw along Gon's cheekbone and behind his ears.

Killua trapped Gon's hands palm-to-palm against his on either side of his head, keeping him still. A shallow purr slowly rose up in Gon's throat, like he'd been trying to keep it down and then gave up. Killua inhaled against the skin behind Gon's ear, and hummed in satisfaction when he smelled nothing but his own arousal. Killua grazed a pointed fang along the base of Gon's hairline, slowly making his way back to his parted lips.

He pressed a slow kiss to the corner of Gon's mouth, over each eyelid, and then to the edge of his jaw. Killua leaned back, and gazed at the jagged scar wrapping Gon's throat like a collar. The scar tissue was puckered and pale, like the skin of a corpse compared to the warm umber of Gon's natural tone.

Just looking at it, Killua could picture Gon's death in his mind. His chest convulsed with waves of sorrow and the leftovers of anxiety from those three long months. Killua released one of Gon's hands, and felt across the scar with shaking fingers. He felt the burn of tears rising up behind his eyelids, but more than anything he felt at peace. Gon was back, and the war was finally won.

Killua leaned down and kissed the side of Gon's neck, right on the violent trail of the scar. "I love you," he murmured against the scar tissue, reminding Gon that he'd still love him no matter what horrible things he went through or what frightening things ran beneath his veins.

"Killua," Gon breathed, his fingers squeezing tightly around the Valkyrie's slender ones. "I love you too."

The hybrid sat up and slotted their lips together again. Killua wrapped his legs around Gon's waist from his seat on his lap. The Valkyrie hummed as Gon ran his hands up and down his back, tracing the tattoo trails from memory.

Killua's tail wrapped affectionately around Gon's leg. He plunged his fingers into that coarse, black-green hair. It was still moist from the shower, and the sweet lavender-vanilla scent of Killua's shampoo wafted from Gon's locks whenever Killua combed through them. He gave that hair a tug, and smirked victoriously when Gon groaned.

The hybrid dipped forward and laid Killua back against the pillows. Killua panted in between kisses when Gon's weight pressed down on his body. A spark ran down his spine as fire quickly pooled in his gut.

Killua tightened his legs around Gon's waist, and shivered with excitement when he felt him already at full attention. He could feel the heat of Gon's dick through the thin fabric of his undershorts, and within moments Killua was just as hard as he was. He rocked his hips back and forth, making both of them moan.

Gon's lips left Killua's and moved to the side of his neck. He licked a long stripe across that pale skin, and lifted himself from Killua's hips as he began making his way down. He kissed and sucked the skin on the hollow of Killua's throat, his collar bones, and down the center of his chest.

He kissed along the swirling trails of those tattoos he was so enamored with, his fingers sliding up and down Killua's muscular arms and sending shivers up and down his spine. Killua gasped when he dragged his tooth across a nipple. The Valkyrie groaned and fisted his hands in the sheets.

Gon's devilish tongue made a hot trail down his stomach, following the dip and valley of every muscle and pausing to trace every bend and curve of Killua's tattoos. He reached the v line of Killua's hips, and sucked a wet mark into the skin on his left hip bone.

"Gon," Killua whined.

Amber eyes flicked up from between his knees, and a flash of grin lit up in the dark. Gon positioned himself between Killua's legs, and swiftly pulled his shorts down and tossed them over the edge of the bed. Killua's breathing turned ragged when the cool air brushed his cock as it sprang free.

Gon leaned down to press a feather light kiss to the flushed head of Killua's dick, and the Valkyrie bit his lip fast to stop himself from whimpering like a damn dog. Gon's tongue snaked out of his mouth, teasing Killua as he just barely drug the tip of his tongue down the side until his nose hit his pubic bone.

Killua's knees shook as he struggled to stay still, but Gon just kept beating around the bush. He kissed the base of Killua's cock, brushed the pad of his thumb across his balls, breathed across the tip.

"Gon, just do it already!" Killua hissed, sweating buckets and on the verge of tears.

The bastard laughed, and then sucked the head into his mouth. Killua groaned through clenched teeth and threw his head back in his struggle to keep still. Gon licked lazily swirls across Killua's sensitive tip, and then dipped his head to swallow him whole.

He slowly bobbed his head up and down. The cavern of his mouth was warm and hot, and he held Killua by the knees to keep him steady. The Valkyrie whined and squeezed his eyes shut, tight as a wire as Gon slowly drove him out of his mind.

The hybrid sat up, releasing Killua with a pop of suction. The Valkyrie whined when Gon licked down the side of his shaft, taking his sweet time but never quite giving Killua the attention he needed to get off.

Gon wrapped his fist around Killua's dick, and then crawled back up his body to reconnect their lips.

"Hey!" Killua gasped, slapping his palm over Gon's mouth a split second before he could reach his mouth. "Do you have any idea where that's just been?" he hissed, once again startled by Gon's shamelessness.

The hybrid chuckled gravelly against Killua's palm, and then slid his clenched fist up and down the assassin's hardened length. Killua groaned, and his arm trembled as he struggled to keep it between Gon's mouth and his own.

Amber eyes twinkled playfully in the dark. He continued working Killua's saliva slicked hard on, tightening his fist as he tried to push the assassin over the edge. Killua bit his tongue, refusing to move his arm. A rumbly purr rose up in Gon's throat, and he started making out with the palm of Killua's hand instead.

The Valkyrie gasped, pressure tightening in his gut between Gon's jerking him off and the seductive sensation of his tongue against the thin skin of his hand. Gon panted against Killua's palm, the fist around his dick starting to tremble. He moved to the side, and started grinding against Killua's thigh.

Killua whined and bucked into Gon's hand, the motion of his hips encouraging him. He brought his other hand up to Gon's hair, and knotted his fingers in the slippery strands. "Gon," he moaned against the back of his hand.

The hybrid sped up his own hand in response, his tongue finding its way between the gaps in Killua's fingers. The assassin arched his back and dug his nails into Gon's scalp. He was so close and they hadn't even–

A split second before Killua reached his release, Gon lifted himself onto his knees with a gasp. He ripped his hand away from Killua's leaking cock, and panted as he hovered over him.

"What… the hell," Killua panted, aching with arousal.

"I can't let you off just yet," Gon laughed breathlessly. "I haven't even gotten started."

Killua whined in annoyance, earning another laugh from Gon. The hybrid ducked in, and planted a swift kiss against Killua's parted lips before he could stop him. The Valkyrie squeaked in shock, and slapped Gon in the shoulder as he withdrew.

Gon's twinkling laughter echoed against the walls of the room, trickling out the french doors and into the quiet of the night. A smile on his lips, he stayed on his hands and knees over Killua and reached across the bed for the nightstand.

The Valkyrie startled when he was brought up close and comfortable with Gon's muscular stomach and tented undershorts. He swallowed hard, his arousal twitching impatiently. He glanced over to see what the hell Gon thought he was doing, just in time to watch him open the drawer on the nightstand and procure a plastic bottle.

"Where the hell did that come from?" Killua sputtered, snapping his head back forward. He was too scared to read the label. His face flushed when he came nose to nose with Gon's dick.

"Ryder gave it to me before we left," Gon said. He drew back from the nightstand, getting his junk out of Killua's face. He sat down on Killua's thighs and unscrewed the cap. The Valkyrie frowned in exasperation. Of course Ryder would casually carry fucking lube on his person…

Killua swallowed dryly as he watched Gon squirt a handful of sweet smelling stuff onto his fingers and rub them together. His heart started to pound in his chest again, and his dick once again reminded him that he was really fucking horny.

Gon wiggled his knees between Killua's thighs, and the assassin took the hint and spread his legs. He drew his knees up as Gon crawled back over him. He leaned on one elbow, the other hand hovering somewhere between Killua's legs.

"You've never done anything like this before," Gon said with a reassuring smile. He gazed down at Killua with that stupid angelic look in his eyes. "I'm gonna have to prepare you first. It'll feel kinda weird but tell me if it hurts, alright?"

Killua nodded, far too flustered to manage any words.

Gon smiled down at him, then shut his eyes as he leaned down to press a kiss to the bridge of the assassin's nose. Killua felt a slicked finger press against his ass. Gon's lips pressed gently against his as his finger circled slowly across the tight ring of muscles. Gon's tongue slid into his mouth in time with his finger, and Killua forced himself not to recoil at the strange sensation.

It certainly didn't feel good, but Gon was too busy treating him like glass for it to hurt. Killua's breathing turned shallow as Gon slipped his finger further inside, and then slowly worked it in and out.

"Try to relax," Gon murmured against his mouth.

Killua's eyebrows drew together, and he forced himself to lay still and unclench his hips.

"Good job," Gon encouraged softly. He slipped a second finger inside, and Killua shuddered from the slimy feeling. Gon slowly stretched him apart, placing a feather-light kiss against his lips every time he scissored Killua further. "You're doing so well," he praised. "I'm almost done."

Gon pressed his fingers all the way down to the base, and wiggled them around. Killua dug his nails into his palms, trying to ignore the unpleasant feeling. Gon licked lazily against his tongue, his dark eyelashes brushing against Killua's cheeks. His fingers twisted up, and Killua jerked with a gasp when fire shot straight up his spine. A sweat broke out across his brow, his hands shooting instinctively to grip Gon's hair.

The hybrid laughed triumphantly. "Found it," he said, his voice sounding strained.

"What was that," Killua gasped. He whined when Gon pulled his fingers out and sat back on his heels. He'd hated them before but now he wanted them back in.

"It's a secret~" Gon said, sticking his tongue out.

Killua glared up at him. His blood was pounding in his ears. He squirmed around, feeling restless and needy all of a sudden.

"I never pegged you as a bottom, you know," Gon mused, though Killua could tell from the glint in his eye that he was being a dick.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Killua panted, hating how desperate his voice sounded. He watched hungrily as Gon pulled his shots down around his knees and squirted more lube across his fingers.

"Oh, nothing~"

A growl rose in Killua's throat. He didn't know why but for some reason he felt like he should be offended right now.

Gon's lighthearted giggle bubbled up from his lips. Killua's cheeks flushed, he had no business being this adorable when he was about to fuck the daylights out of him.

Killua watched, transfixed, as Gon wrapped his slicked fingers around his own dick and worked his hand up and down. Heat filled Killua's head, and his fingers strayed to his own throbbing erection.

Gon's hand suddenly shot forward and grabbed Killua's wrist. He grinned wolfishly down at him, "Don't do that, now," he scolded playfully. "Only I can touch you." Blood rushed to the Valkyrie's cheeks.

Killua glared again. If he hadn't been so turned on by that statement then he'd have slapped Gon across his stupid smug face… or kissed his stupid smug face.

Gon slid forward on his knees and positioned him over Killua. The Valkyrie's heart picked up speed, his eyes caught between staring at Gon's parted lips or his cock. The hybrid's hands gently took Killua's ankles and locked them behind his back.

Killua's stomach flipped wildly. He almost came on the spot.

"What do I do with my hands," he gasped stupidly, his filter effectively burned to the ground.

Gon chuckled good naturedly. "Wrap them around my neck," he suggested.

Killua shakily followed his instruction, and locked his fingers together at the nape of Gon's neck. His heart spasmed in his chest as Gon gazed lovingly down at him, his eyes overshadowed with steamy desire. Killua stared back up at him, feeling trapped in the sticky honey of that wild gaze.

Gon's hands braced against Killua's hips, holding him still. The Valkyrie panted as Gon pushed his waist forward and lined himself up against Killua's ass.

"Look at me," Gon said, his voice pure gravel.

Killua's eyes fluttered, "I am."

"Killua," Gon breathed, and slowly pushed himself through Killua's entrance.

The assassin shuddered with pleasure and excitement, his eyes squeezing shut as he listened to Gon's jagged breathing. The hybrid's fingers shook against Killua's hips as he slipped further inside. Killua cracked his eyes open to see Gon's face, finding those amber eyes squeezed shut and the sexiest expression he'd ever seen anyone make.

Killua took in a shallow breath when Gon's hips connected with his ass. He stared up at him with wide eyes, his face flushed with fingers digging into the back of his neck. Gon's eyes cracked open, and just like that his face turned bright red. The Valkyrie's heart fluttered, he'd never seen Gon blush like that before.

"Gods," Gon hissed, his eyes falling shut as he leaned his forehead into the pillows beside Killua's head.

"Gon?" the Valkyrie breathed.

The horned male shuddered, his hips jerking and making Killua gasp.

"Killua, I– Fuck."

The assassin swallowed his spit. He felt like his entire being was on fire. His head felt melty inside, but his dick was crying where it stood. He wiggled his hips back and forth, and shuddered when he made Gon moan his name.

"I– You're– This is really hot," Gon choked out. "I feel like a– like a virgin right now."

"Huh?" Killua asked, his back beginning to arch up. He felt Gon inside him, he was on the verge of burning to ash.

"Killua," Gon whined, "You… you're really attractive."

"Where's this coming from?" Killua asked, a laugh on his lips.

"I–" Gon pulled up an inch and made them both gasp. "I really really love you."

He pulled further out and slowly pressed back inside.

Killua groaned, that felt so good.

"You're so– beautiful," Gon gasped, repeating the motion.

Killua squirmed underneath him, his grip on Gon's neck turning slick with sweat.

"Fuck, you're really… so perfect," Gon sputtered. He pulled back and thrust forward, hitting something inside Killua and sending fireworks shooting up his spine again.

"Do that again," Killua gasped. "Gon–"

"Killuaa," Gon keened, jerking his hips forward again. His fingers dug into Killua's hips, he'd be covered in bruises by tomorrow.

Gon moved his hips faster, finally working into a rhythm. He started slow at first, his legs trembling as he clearly held himself back. He quickly picked up the pace, his chin locking around Killua's shoulder as he panted his name and fucked him against the sheets.

Killua clung to his neck, moan's bubbling past his lips as Gon thrust into him again and again. He brushed past the edge of that place inside him every time, stoking the flames beneath Killua but always pulling back before he set him ablaze. Killua whined every time Gon brushed past that one spot, that one secret spot that Gon knew was there but refused to hit head on.

"Gon, come on," Killua panted, "Please–"

"Yeah?" Gon gasped, "What is it? Tell me."

"Go harder–"

With a groan, he followed Killua's order. As if he'd been waiting for the request this whole time. Gon rutted into him faster, pressing forward with new fervor. Killua tightened his legs around Gon's waist and whined as he pulled them tighter together. He turned his neck and buried his head against Gon's hair, his fingers straying from his neck to dig into his back and leave raised scratches across his skin.

Gon panted with exertion, his skin slick with sweat and his knees slipping against the silken sheets. Killua cried out when Gon struck that place head on, and electricity exploded behind his eyelids.

"Gon!" Killua yelled, a drawn out moan forcing its way past his clenched teeth as Gon thrust forward just right over and over. He pushed himself faster, pulling Killua's hips closer in that crushing grip.

"Killua," Gon growled in response. "You feel so good–"

"Keep on– fuck, Gonn, I– love you," Killua cried. He arched into Gon's thrusts and tangled his fists in his hair. A string pulled tight in his belly, he needed Gon to keep going, he needed to feel it again–

Gon's breathing was frantic in Killua's ear, his tears soaked into his skin. His back tensed up beneath Killua's fingers, "Killua!" he gasped, "Killua, I'm so close–"

"I know, I know," the assassin ground out, "Just keep going, please–"

"Killua!" Gon screamed, thrusting forward one more time before exploding in hot jets.

The assassin shuddered when he felt Gon's dick twitch inside him as he came, and the string snapped in his gut. Killua yanked on Gon's hair and whined low in his throat, painting their chests with white strips.

"Ah," Gon panted, shivering as his high died off into drifting embers. He pulled out and dropped Killua's hips, before crashing unceremoniously onto the bed beside him. Killua lay on his back panting as he started up at the ceiling. His core was trembling from exhaustion and his hips were tingling from Gon's grip.

"Killua," Gon asked breathlessly, "How was that?"

The assassin draped his arm across his forehead, "Uh, good. Really good."

Gon laughed, "Good." He rolled over and flopped onto Killua's chest. "I really fucking love you."

Killua giggled, "I love you too, Gon."

"You're my mate now?" Gon asked hopefully, his breathing beginning to calm down.

"Yeah," Killua whispered into the dark, his face busting out in a tired grin. "And you're mine."

"Fuck yeah!" Gon cheered, weakly pumping his fist in the air.

Killua laughed out loud, and turned over to wrap Gon up in his arms. "You're such a goof."

"I know," Gon declared proudly.

"We're gonna have to shower all over again," Killua sighed, knowing that he was now the equivalent of a cream filled donut but far too exhausted to consider getting up.

"Yes!" Gon cheered, lurching into a sitting position. "I love showering with Killua!"

Killua peeked up at him, laughing at the disheveled state of his hair.

"Come on," Gon said, buzzing with energy. He scooped Killua into his arms and swung his legs off the bed. Killua clung to Gon's shoulders, too tired to do anything but flop lazily against his chest.

Gon marched Killua into the bathroom, where the two of them laughed at the ridiculous state they were in. Killua's hair was a wild mess, he looked like a total fool dangling from Gon's arms.

The Valkyrie's chest burned with love and contentment. He hung from Gon's shoulders as his new mate turned the shower on hot and hopped under the frigid downpour. He kissed Gon under the heat of the shower, combing his hands through wet hair and leaning against him to balance. Gon scrubbed the jizz off their chests and apologized about a million times for the bruises forming on Killua's hips.

Gon ended up taking him against the wall in the shower, and then again on the bathroom counter once they got out. They had to shower a second time, but managed to keep their hands to themselves for the most part.

By the time Gon carried him back to bed, Killua was half asleep in his arms. He refused to let go of Gon's neck, nuzzling into the hollow of his throat as the hybrid shut the curtains, locked the door, and tucked them into bed. He drew the covers over their heads and glued himself to Killua's chest.

The Valkyrie snuggled up under Gon's chin, tucked up against him and more warm inside than he'd been in three months. Killua was lulled to sleep by the sound of Gon's breathing and the warmth of his hands rubbing circles against his back. His tail curled around his lover's leg under the blankets, and Killua slept through the night with a smile on his face and Gon close in his arms.
