Timeskip (One month later, Killua's P.O.V)
"Happy birthday Candy!" It's early morning, I dash into her room while she's still sleeping and yells.
"Huh?" She's still sleeping on her bed. "Oh good morning Killua. How did you know it's my birthday?"
"We've been living together for over two months now. I've asked some of the servants."
"Woah! Killua! You got all dressed up for me?" She turns around and looks at me as she sits up from her bed.
"Well, your birthday, May 12th, is only once a year. But you like my tuxedo?" I ask.
"Of course, you look really handsome right now." She smiles and gets out of bed.
"Oh. You look pretty cute in your Pajamas too!"
"Hehe. Thanks. Can you gimme a minute, I'll get changed and go downstairs for breakfast." She walks over to her bathroom.
"Sure. See you there!" I leave her room and head to the dining hall myself.
(Five minutes later)
"Candy! It's been exactly five minutes, you're on time this time." I say as I'm eating my breakfast, without looking up.
"How did you know it's me?" Candy asks from behind.
I turn around to look at her, "Well, I can identi….Holy! You look so pretty in that white skirt"
Her cheeks blush bright red, "Maybe you don't have to scream it out?"
"The only ones living in the castle is your family, me and some butlers, nobody's going to know."
"Still...we're going to be on the news if some outsider finds out that the Princess is in a relationship."
"Hehe, are we in a relationship?" I tease her.
"Well...you know…." She averts her gaze by staring at the ground.
"I know, I know, just kidding...So how old are you now? 15?"
"Yeah!"
"Mmm...So you're older than me.
"When's your birthday?" She asks.
"July 7th. Which means I'm younger than you by two months." Killua puts his hand under his chin in consideration. "That's funny, I've never thought of you as someone older than me."
"Umm..what's that supposed to mean?" She scratches the back of her head in confusion.
"Well, I'm always the one who took care of you for the past two months, right?"
"Now you're starting to sound like my dad." Candy slightly pouts in displeasure.
"Speaking of him...where are your parents right now?" I ask.
"My dad is managing some military stuff...preparing for the war against the Tryclars. They said it's going to happen soon. My mom is probably off to another party like always."
"They are not even going to spend your birthday with you?"
Candy walks toward the dining table and sits down next to me. "They probably forgot about it...whatever, I'd rather spend the day with you."
"Hehe...wait here for a sec!" I say as I hurry out of the dining room.
"Where're you going?" She yells.
"Just wait here!" I shout without looking.
I come back a minute later with a huge smile on my face and two boxes in my arms.
"What are those?" Candy asks curiously.
"The first one… is the birthday cake I made for you!" I slowly take the cake out of the first box, "I know it's...uh...pretty unsightly to look at… and it might taste pretty bad too...So you don't have to eat it. It's just something made to show my feelings for you."
"Aww...the smiley face made out of fruits on the cake is so cute...I'm definitely eating it. Thanks Killua!."
"Well...just make sure to not throw up. I'm gonna get in trouble if I made the Princess sick.
"Hehe. I won't" She smiles.
I lay the second box onto the table, "This second one...it's a gift. I didn't make it, but belonged to me...now I'm giving it to you."
"What is it?" She pokes her head up to see what's inside the box.
"It doesn't exist in your world...it's a phone." I take it out of the box and puts it in her hand.
"What's a 'phone'?" She asks.
"It can be a lot more useful if there's reception, but there is none here. So the only purpose is to take pictures. It basically allows you freeze an image of something and puts it onto the phone. Since it can be solar powered, you don't need to worry about running out of battery life."
"Huh?" She scratches the back of her head in confusion, "None of that made sense to me. Stop speaking Gibberish."
"Heh...well, lemme show you." I hold up the phone, take a picture of Candy herself and show it to her.
"See? This is you...I froze your image into this thing."
"Woah! This is so cool! Thanks Killua!" She yells.
"No problem Candy."
Suddenly, her face freezes as she looks at the phone screen. "Umm...Killua?" She suddenly asks, her voice trembling.
"Yea? What's wrong?"
"Why's your phone's background a picture of you and Gon Freecss?" She asks.
"Umm..yeah...what's so wrong about that? We're just two best friends posing together."
All of a sudden, I notice something impossible in her question. "Wait! How do you know his name?! How do you know he's Gon Freecss?"
