KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

I feel like there's a tiny person in my head, knocking on my skull. Asking for exit. Opening my eyes, I regretted it instantly.

Instead of the bastard "Sun", it was Gon. His smile blinding me this morning, instead of the sun.

We stayed up much, much later than we should have last night. We ended up going to Olive Garden… and the park… and an arcade.

Okay, I have to admit, the arcade was actually fun. Although, Gon had complete no idea what the hell he was doing. He didn't even know what a claw machine was! A claw machine! I mean seriously, that's like something you can find anywhere, not just an arcade.

I instantly sat up after seeing Gon, our foreheads impacting.

"Oww, Killua. I was just trying to wake you up nicely!" Gon pouted and turned away, walking and sitting on his desk, legs crossed.

God he has that morning grogginess, and his hair's a wreck. Am I unknowingly checking Gon out? Yeah, probably.

"Dude were you legit knocking on my head?" I rubbed my forehead, trying to take away the stinging that still lingered.

"Maybe I did, so what?" Gon shrugged. "I mean, It woke you up, didn't it? So technically it worked. I'll have to try something else tomorrow that won't make you wake up grumpy." Gon pulled out a worn piece of paper with scribbles on it.

I walked over and popped my head up to block his view of the paper. "What's this?" I ask, pointing to the paper and turning my head to Gon, with an innocent look. Our lips were much too close for comfort. I stumbled back but tried to act not like an embarrassed idiot while doing it.

"Oh, this?" Gon was seemingly oblivious to our closeness. That makes this scenario even worse! "This is the new and improved 'Get Killua out of bed effectively 2.0'!" Gon folded it and tossed it with his pamphlet in his nightstand.

"Heyy! Why'd you do that, I wanted to see. Well, it doesn't matter anyway. Your weird scribble handwriting is almost impossible to read!" Giving up on my mission of reading Gon's shitty handwriting, I grab my room key and slip on some shoes. Fluffing my hair with my hands so I don't look completely shitty, I turn to Gon. "Gon! You want to come to the Cafe with me and get a coffee? It's right in the school cafeteria."

"Oh, Killua, don't you know, I don't like coffee! I'm more of a tea or water person to wake up in the morning. We were best friends last time I checked. How do you not know?" Well great, now I feel like a horrible friend. Great way to start off your day, right? "I'll still come with you, though."

So now we were walking to the cafeteria. In our sweats, looking the the laziest pieces of shit here.

Well, that's a lie. Some of the girls here are reallyyyy bad. It's not even funny. No, scratch that, it's hilarious. Another reason why I swing the other way.

Once in the cafeteria, I go to the breakfast section and begin to make my coffee. I get a cup and add four packets of sugar and fill it halfway with milk, and the remainder with black coffee. Gon gave me a stare that said 'what the actual fuck are you doing' with really wide eyes, which is creepy, since his eyes are already wide enough normally.

"What? I have to feed my craving my sweet tooth." I finish pouring my coffee and reach for a lid.

"At 7AM?" Gon grabbed a smaller cup than I did and filled it with hot green tea, just straight.

"So what? Sugar has no time bounds. Early morning, noon, and night. It's the way I live. Geez, and I thought you were my friend." I faked a frown and went to sit at a corner table, Gon following.

"Hey, I said that to you earlier. You can't use my lines against me!" He huffed and sat down, sitting next to me. Next is an understatement, he was almost on top of me. Kill me now, God, please.

"Hey, is this seat taken?" Oh look, it's the blonde and old guy I was stalking yesterday. I look around, literally half the cafeteria was empty, but they specifically wanted the seats across from us.

"Hmm, no, I don't think so. Right, Killua?" Gon smiled. "No, whatever, you can sit there." I shrug and drink my coffee, burning my tongue and spitting it out.

"Hey, is he okay?" That blonde asked. Before Gon could, I replied.

"Yeah, Blondie, i'm fine. Although, why're you hanging around an old guy. Why's he even on campus, anyway?" I direct to the old guy, who smugly drank his black coffee. He even had a briefcase.

"Oh, Leorio?" This guy just ignored my insult and went straight to introductions, tch. "He started college a little late. He didn't know what he wanted to be and recently joined, two years ago. He's going for a doctorate." Leorio smirked and put down his cup.

"Yo, as Pika said, I'm Leorio." Pika? What kind of name is that? Sounds like his parents had a Pokémon fetish or something.

"My full name's Kurapika, you look confused so I thought I would clarify." Gon's head was going between all three of us, Just listening to the conversation and drinking his green tea. He's actually silent for once.

"Wait, your name is Oreo? Dude, isn't that copyrighted? Can't your parents get sued? COuld someone get sued for naming their kid after a company? Like what if I named my kid Jello, or Aunt Jemima? Would they-"

"Woah woah, kid, slow down. My name's Leorio. Lee-or-ee-o. Get it right." This shady man known as Leorio frowned and threw his cup towards the nearby trash, completely missing. He seemingly did not care, though.

"Wait, wait, Gon, did you just say you'd name your kid Aunt Jemima? Imagine that, telling someone 'I'm gonna go pick up Aunt Jemima from school' and they're just like 'why the hell is your aunt in school' and you're just like 'oh, no, that's my son' OH MY GOD THIS IS A MASTERPIECE. Gon, you're a genius." I accidentally yelled and scared Kurapika out of a weird meditative trance. Whoops.

"Speaking of names, I know yours is Gon." He pointed towards Gon, obviously, but then pointed towards me. "But what's yours?"

"Oh, him, that's Killua, my best friend!" I felt my cheeks heating up, rising from my toes.

"G-Gon! Stop, that's embarrassing!" I spluttered out. I frantically turned so my hair blocked my face, so no one could see my blush.

"I'm gonna get more coffee." I barely mumble and push myself off the table. I hear Gon frantically calling for me. He probably think i'm mad. I'm not. Seems like new friends were made today. Leorio and Kurapika… Aka Oreo and Pikachu, i've decided.

College just seemingly gets better and better. Yayy...
