Hello everyone! Here is the second chapter; I hope you'll enjoy this. It did take me a long time to update the next chapter; well I got really busy and had no time to write.
I want to thank those who followed my story, I appreciate them so much (^_^)
Gon's been shifting on the bed, tossing around, mumbling something while he's asleep. From the look on his face, he's not feeling well and it looks like he's having a bad dream because he wouldn't be like that if he's just sleeping peacefully.
"Hisoka..."
He's been mentioning Hisoka's name since he started dreaming about him. He's probably, thinking stuffs about him again then it suddenly turned into a dream.
"Hisoka!"
He sat up by the time something suddenly happened on his dream and he kept looking around and breathing heavily then he sighed in relief when he knew that it was just a dream again. It was already the third time he woke up because of the same dream he's been having, so he decided that he won't go back to sleep or else he'll have that nightmare again. He looked beside him seeing Killua sleeping and it looks like he's dreaming about eating sweets although it looks obvious of what he's doing right now.
Gon went off the bed quietly for Killua not to notice him then he went outside of his room and proceeded outside of the house and made his way to the forest. He sat down on the ground near the river, looking down at his reflection on the water and thought of some things. He didn't know why he feels depressed like this; probably he can't understand himself anymore because all he could think about is Hisoka.
'Why am I over thinking about him? Why does it have to be him? Do I want to see him again?' Gon thought.
"No, no, no, no! What am I thinking about?" Gon spoke loudly. "There must be something wrong with me."
After a while of spending his time on the forest, he decided to go back home. He just went to the forest all by himself to think out loud because there are few people around his house and if they'll be seeing him acting strange, they'll keep asking him about his problems which he can't even tell what his own main problem is. So as he already returned to his home, he saw Mito in front of him by the time he opened the front door.
"Mito-san!" Gon was shocked as he saw Mito.
"Where have you been? I've been looking all over for you around this house but you can't be seen anywhere around here." Mito crossed her arms and looked worried as she spoke to Gon.
"I was just at the forest," Gon simply answered with a smile.
"I see, I know you would usually do that, sneak out of the house and go outside at the forest." Mito sighed after she spoke.
"Well, I just wanted to spend time alone with myself. There are quite things I've been thinking but it's like I wanted to avoid them." Gon said in a low tone while looking down.
"I'll be preparing breakfast; you could just wait inside your room." Mito said.
Gon walked upstairs without a response. As he entered his room, he can see Killua still sleeping and he didn't want to disturb him as he sleeps so he just didn't mind and walked towards the window then watched the view from outside.
'I don't know why... I think so much about him...'
"Ah!"
Gon suddenly screamed and twitched when he was surprised by someone behind him. Killua laughed so hard at him when he saw his surprised expression.
"That wasn't funny, Killua. Stop doing things like that!" Gon complained.
"C'mon, that was just a joke." Killua said, still laughing a bit.
"Well, stop joking around." Gon passed through Killua and made his way to the door.
"What's up with you today? Since when were you acting so cold?"
"Uh...this is nothing. I'm just in a serious mood today," Gon said as went outside and closed the door.
Killua noticed that since yesterday he's really acting different. Ever since that time, he kept thinking about Gon's actions and the Gon that he sees right now is really different.
"Breakfast is ready everyone!" Mito said loudly.
Killua walked downstairs and made his way to the dining room. He's very excited to try Mito's cooking because he remembered last time that Gon mentioned about Mito and he said that she's a really great cook. He believes about what Gon said and right now he's all ready to fill up his hungry stomach.
"I made pancakes, omelet and roasted chicken for both of you." Mito smiled as she presented their foods.
Killua's eyes sparkled and were amazed when he saw his favorites.
"Killua-kun, I heard from Gon that these are your favorite breakfasts so I made them especially for you." Mito said.
"Aww, you shouldn't have, Mito-san." Killua blushed and smiled.
"That's alright, you're a guest here."
"Itadakimasu!"
Killua enjoyed the food and he did not regret coming to Gon's house because for him it's much better in here than in his home. As Killua glared at Gon, he noticed that Gon looks down even when he's eating his favorite food. Gon doesn't even had an idea why he's upset like that; he doesn't understand himself anymore and he can't even eat properly because he's thinking too much, so he pushed aside his food and stood up.
"I'll go outside," Gon said.
"What's wrong Gon? Don't you like the breakfast I made?" Mito asked worriedly.
"No, I do. It's just... I need some time for myself, I have to go."
Mito was worried about Gon because it's so not like him to be like that. She wonders what's up with him but if she'll try to ask him about his problem, he might and deny that he's fine.
So Gon went outside of the house and went somewhere for him to be alone; probably at the forest so that he could just explore around.
"I really wonder what's up with Gon today. I'm worried about him," Mito thought out loud.
After Killua finished his breakfast, he left the house and went to the forest to look for Gon. He doesn't really know which part of the forest Gon is because it's so wide that he might get lost. As he remembered something, he kind of got the idea where Gon is because while both of them were exploring yesterday, Gon told him that he used to go on that place whenever he wants to be just with himself. It's kind of like his private place though. Killua ran and heads his way to Gon's own private place and when he got there, he was relieved that he saw Gon sitting near the river alone and he's just staring down at the clear water.
"I knew you were here all along," Killua said as he revealed his presence.
Gon glared back at Killua then looked front after without saying a word. Killua sat next to Gon then looked at him worriedly. He opened his mouth and was about to say something but then he sighed and closed his mouth. He just wanted to cheer his best friend up because he's not really used to see him depressed like that.
"Gon, what's going on with you? Why are you depressed like that? Did something happen?" Killua asked him worriedly.
Gon shook his head and turned away from Killua.
"Gon..."
"I don't know... I don't know what's going on with me. I just can't help myself thinking about him all the time. Why does it have to be him? Why can't I forget him? I feel so confused that I don't know what to do..."
Gon didn't realize that he thought everything out loud and Killua overheard everything from him. Now Killua finally knows his problem but he's kind of confused of the unknown person that Gon mentioned. Killua figured out that Gon's been having a problem with a person but he still has no idea who it was.
"Gon, who is..." Killua was about to ask him something but Gon suddenly cuts off his line.
"Sorry Killua, did I say something?" Gon sweat dropped and rubbed the back of his head.
'And he just realized it...' Killua sweat dropped. "Who is he actually?" Killua asked, not looking at him.
"Hmm?"
"Like what you said earlier, you think about him too much. Why is that?"
"Ahh that was nothing Killua. Forget what I said, I was just out of myself that I don't have idea what I was saying..." Gon keep fidgeting as he kept denying to Killua.
Killua kept holding his urge to pound Gon's head because Gon's been making a fool out of him.
"Stop fooling around, I'm asking here."
"I won't tell you anything,"
"And why is that?"
"I don't wanna talk about it," Gon crossed his arms and stared away.
"Fine, have it your way. Don't ask help from me about that problem of yours, but even if you did I still won't help you." Killua crossed his arms as he turned back. "EVER!"
Gon didn't reply as if he doesn't care. Of course he can handle the problem all by himself, he didn't need Killua's help or anyone's help, it's just his own problem so it won't matter to anyone. No...of course he couldn't handle that problem all by himself. Even though he's just confused of what's been going on with him, he still can't figure it out even now. He really needed to know what's happening to him from his friends' help because they might figure out what's really going on with him. So, maybe it's not too late to tell Killua about it, he just needed to apologize to his best friend and ask help from him.
Gon sighed before he turns back and look at Killua that's been turning away from him.
"Killua..." Gon mentioned his name.
"What?" Killua didn't sound like he wanted to talk to Gon because Gon refused to tell him his problem.
"I'm sorry, I regret it. I should've just told you about it, I thought I can just handle it all by myself but when you said that you won't help me, I realized that I really need my friend's help. I can't even tell what's wrong with me, I don't want to be depressed like this and I don't want you to worry much about me. Please forgive me Killua," Gon bowed down his head and closed his eyes as he apologized to Killua and his sayings really came from his heart.
Gon opened his eyes and lifted his head when he felt a touch on his shoulder. He can see Killua in front of him smiling then he waited for Killua to say something.
"Don't worry about it much; of course I'll help you. I won't just leave you like that, friends are supposed to help out each other." Killua said.
"Thanks Killua," Gon smiled.
"So, tell me. What are you thinking about all the time?" Killua started asking Gon about his problem.
Gon felt kind of nervous to tell Killua everything and he's trying to figure out where to start. He hesitated a bit, unsure of what he should say.
"Just tell me, you don't have to be nervous about it."
"Umm, you see...it's weird that I...well...uh..." Gon was really speechless that he can't say it clearly but he did all his best to spit it all out. "Well, ever since we left Heavens Arena, I kept remembering Hisoka's face and I just can't seem to forget about him. I think about him every time even though I try to forget him, he still gets stuck in my mind. I just can't help having weird feelings for him,"
Gon sighed after he explained then Killua suddenly pounded his head.
"Ow! What was that for?" Gon complained.
"That's the reason why you've been acting like that?!" Killua yelled.
"So, what?"
"So...that means you..." Killua hesitated and chuckled, unable to tell what he's about to say. "Could it be? That you..." Killua laughed a bit.
"What?"
"Gon, the reason that you feel that way is because you like him." Killua said directly and seriously.
"But I don't like him!" Gon blushed.
"There's no way denying that, and I'm not lying either. That's what happens when you like someone, you think about them a lot and it does make you feel weird."
"But that's impossible! He's a guy and an adult, how can I like him?" Gon can't really believe what he's hearing and he can't also accept the fact he likes Hisoka, it's obvious!
"I'm sorry Gon, but that's the truth." Killua patted Gon's shoulder.
"No! It's the opposite of the truth. There's no way I'd like him,"
"That's fine," Killua shrugged. "You're too young to understand about it."
"What was that?"
"Nothing," Killua muttered.
"Whatever, no matter what you say, I won't ever have feelings for Hisoka and there's no way I'll be attracted to him." Gon stood up and started making his way out of the forest, leaving Killua.
"Wait for me! Don't just leave me here." Killua also stood up and started following Gon.
"We're back," Gon and Killua said in unison.
Mito was relieved to see both of them back after they've been in the forest for hours now. After Gon and Killua finished discussing about a problem, they decided to walk around the forest for a while when they were near the house. They were really about to get back earlier but Killua still wanted to check out some other parts of the forest.
"Where have you both been? Do you even know that you haven't returned here for hours? I'm mostly worried about you Gon; you haven't eaten your breakfast well and you might be hungry until now." Mito was really worried about them that she kept asking them questions.
"I'm fine, Mito-san." Gon smiled as his excuse.
"You two take a bath and I'll prepare for you to eat something. I'm sure you boys are hungry."
"Yep, we sure are..." Killua said.
Gon and Killua went inside the bathroom together and took a bath together. They're both in the bathtub together, resting and relaxing for a while and of them them will just decide to go out from the tub but they don't feel like it for now. Gon's been silent for a moment and there he goes again, thinking some stuff and not minding everything around him.
"Gon," Killua said.
"..." Gon didn't reply but kept looking down and he's not aware that Killua's been calling him.
"Gon? Gon, Gon!" Killua repeated calling his name but Gon didn't respond. "Gon!" Killua yelled this time.
"Huh? What?" Gon finally snapped out from his thoughts.
"Finally!" Killua sighed in relief. "Are you thinking about someone?"
"Who?"
Killua stared at him with his eye brow raised.
"Hisoka? Of course not. Why would I think about him at this time?"
"Seriously, just admit that you like him."
"I'm telling you that I don't like him! I'm not interested in him or anything; I think I just want to meet up with him..." Gon hesitated and awkwardly looked at Killua. "NO! I-It's not like that..." Gon fidgeted and blushed.
Killua sighed before he spoke up.
"Fine, I'll stop asking you about it, or make you admit it. You'll forget about him someday, anyway. Right?" Killua smiled.
"Yeah, of course." Gon nodded.
"Well, let's get out of the tub and eat. I'm getting hungry..." Killua got out of the tub and grabbed his towel and Gon followed.
'Maybe...I do like Hisoka. I really want to see him again, but I can't let Killua to know about it yet.' Gon thought.
So Gon does have secret feelings for Hisoka and he admits it personally. He's still not ready to tell his friends about it because he doesn't know what they're reaction would be if they'll know. He wanted to see Hisoka again, but how? He still has no idea, but he'll try to find out how to find Hisoka.
