Not many people were dancing. That was no surprise since there were only a few girls. You were standing on the side wearing a short black dress. Your friends were standing near you.
Gon walked up to you. Wanna dance? he asked.
You shrugged. Why not?
It was weird dancing with someone shorter than you, but it was fun anyway.
The two of you were spinning around the room. You danced until a voice interrupted you.
May I cut in? asked Kurapika.
Sure. said Gon and he ran off.
You took Kurapika s hands. Why did you want to dance? Aren t you afraid I ll kill you or something? you asked.
There s only two other girls here. Considering the fact that one of them is surrounded by bees and the other one is holding a sniper, I thought I d take my chances with you. He replied. Besides, I don t think you d kill me.
You gave him your most evil smile. What makes you think that?
You wouldn t kill your friend, would you?
You re my friend? I thought you thought that I was too violent.
I do. That doesn t mean I can t like you.
You blushed. You like me?
Yes. I don t know why but I do. You re violent and act irrationally, but I think you re a nicer person than you lead others to believe.
You smiled at him again. Only this time it wasn t evil.
Kurapika gets a girl and I don t? That s so unfair. Leorio complained. I m handsome and smart. Girls should be swooning over me.
You couldn t help but laugh. The others laughed too. What s so funny? wondered Leorio. Nothing. Nothing at all. said Kurapika, trying his hardest not to laugh. He failed.
Oh sure, you can laugh, you have a girl unlike me. whined Leorio.
She s not my girl. We re just friends. replied Kurapika.
You were dancing awfully close for being just friends. Killua chimed in.
Sonua and Kurapika sitting in a tree Gon and Killua began to sing. Then Leorio joined them.
Leorio, you re my friend. Don t force me to hurt you. you told him.
But Gon and Killua are singing too. Why don t you threaten them?
They re young and cute, they can get away with it.
Are you saying that I m not young and cute?
You all started laughing again.
We shouldn t laugh. It s not nice. said Kurapika. Even if it is true.
Hey! Leorio grumbled. You re just as bad as your girlfriend.
She s not my girlfriend. He turned to you. Thanks for the dance. he said. Then he took your hand and kissed it.
You just kissed her! Leorio shouted. She is your girlfriend.
I was just being polite. That s the proper way of thanking a girl.
Attention everyone, the dance is now over. The next exam will be starting tomorrow. said the examiner guy.
Later that night while you were trying to sleep, you kept thinking about the dance. It was fun, even when Leorio said I was Kurapika s girlfriend. you thought. Actually, that was my favorite part. That and the kiss. Whoever invented manners was a genius.
