I was supossed to post this on July 7...
Just pretend that in the story it's July 7, kay?
Let's play a game: Try not to laugh or grin while reading this. You're not even allowed to have a small smile on your face.
If you win, you get a cookie *holds up cookie*
If I win, I want a hug (Sorry, I'm weird)
Enjoy!
Illumi raised an eyebrow when the call was answered before that he heard the first ring. 'What the hell? Does Kaullo hold his phone all day with his finger on the answer button?'
"Illu-nii? Oniisan is coming home? Is he? Is he? Yes or no? Hey, can you hear me! HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Jeez! If he isn't I hang up now, you hear me?"
Illumi clicked his tongue in annoyance at his brother's rudeness. And the fact that he got called 'Illu-nii' while that Killua got called 'Oniisan' also bothered him a bit.
As if sensing his annoyance, Kaullo's tone became more polite. "A-N-I-K-I, what is it?"
He sighed. "He's coming home. Now."
Illumi guessed- from the way he was laughing freely and the sound of the crows as they flew off- that he was in the forest around their house.
He walked in the briefing room. He had to convince a group of weak Hunters that he wasn't behind the death of a certain old man.
(*O*O*O)
Kalluto covered his mouth with the sleeve of his kimono. "Sorry, I suck at cooking."
Kaullo pouted. "Then, what should we do?"
"Perhaps ask Elilou?"
"Yeah, you're right. Kallu-nii, you're so smart!" Kaullo kissed Kalluto's cheek.
"Are you going to continue doing that?"
"Of course~ Kallu-nii's cheeks are so soft!" To prove his point, Kaullo poked his older brother's cheek before giggling and walking away.
(*O*O*O)
"KAULLO-SAMA! DON'T EAT IT!" Elilou shouted at the boy who was about to eat the cake.
Kaullo wailed loudly. "DEMO! I want to taste it, the cake has to be perfect, you know?!" He said/screamed.
The two were so busy arguing that they didn't notice Killua opening the door and walking inside together with Kalluto. "Kaullo…"
Kaullo immediately stopped talking and stared at him nonchalantly with his piercing green eyes. He blinked, batting his long lashes at him. He faced him. At the time, Killua was already inside.
'This boy talking to me….'
"Hi Kaullo."
'Is it really….'
Kaullo continued staring at him with a blank look on his face.
'Yeah…Yes! Yes! Yes! He came back!'
Killua stared at him, and he stared back, and they stared and stared and stared and stare-
'My-'
"ONII-TAN!"
'Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!'
He practically screamed at his older brother . Doing so, she threw the cake in the air and Kalluto quickly caught it. He ran to him and hugged him tight. "Onii-tan, Oniitan, Onii-tan!" He continued mumbling as he rubbed his cheek against his. "Kaullo is so happy to see his Onii-tan again! Where have you been?"
"I attended the Hunter exam." He mumbled as he stroked his hair.
Kaullo closed his eyes and curved like a happy cat. "How did Illu-nii manage to get you back?"
There was some silence.
"He… He forced me to return. He said that he would kill my friends," he murmured.
"He fooled you… Right?" Killua nodded. "That's Illu-nii for you! He'll never kill unless he's paid!" He told him. He didn't answer.
"Ne, ne, Onii-tan, you are now thirteen, ne?"
"Ah yeah."
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" He hugged him tighter before letting go of him and then turned to Kalluto who was now holding the cake. "We made a cake for you….With the help of Lou-san of course!"
Elilou bowed dutifully.
Killua sweatdropped. "How did you know that I would return today?"
Kaullo held up a finger. "Because I know it!"
"Oh, okay then…"
"Killua-sama, please follow me." Elilou led him to the dining room. The cake was served to him in a decorative manner. Killua giggled and happily took a bite.
"Sooo…." Kaullo and Kalluto sat down next to him. "How is it?"
"Good, you three did a good job." Killua cut the cake in four pieces. "Let's eat it together, that would be more fun."
"Ah no, Killua-sama." Elilou waved her hands frantically. "You don't need to share it with me! I'm merely a servant who has to serve you and your siblings, so-"
"Elilou, shut up and eat. That's an order." Killua deadpanned at her.
They all laughed. This was one of the reasons he wanted to go back home. To meet his siblings and Elilou and talk with them.
"Onii-sama, how was the Hunter exam?" Kalluto suddenly asked.
"Yeah, Kaullo wants to know too! Did you make any friends? And…" Kaullo smiled mischievously. "A girlfriend?"
'I bet that Oniisan met his fated person!'
"Mm…No more shoujo mangas ." Killua said dryly.
'Yes! I was right! He's blushing!'
"But Kaullo wants to know! Her Onii-tan falling in love and having a girlfriend, that would be so cool!" Kaullo said with stars in her eyes. "And then Onii-tan and his girlfriend will have many kids and Kaullo will become auntie, yay!"
"Seriously no more mangas for you!" Killua yelled with his cheeks a bit pink.
'I wonder if I ever get to meet her…'
Kaullo blinked before grinning widely. "Ah~ Since Onii-tan already met his fated person, Kaullo must also meet hers! Oh, oh, I know! I will be the next Zoldyck to go take the Hunter exam and meet my fated person! Kallu-nee will join me!"
"Uh…"
Killua's eye twitched. 'Kaullo falling in love? Nope, nope, nope, that won't happen as long that I'm alive!(A/N: Brother complex :/) If anyone ever managed to catch Kaullo's interest, I would kill that bastard!'
Elilou burst out laughing, Kalluto smiled a bit and Kaullo puffed his cheeks. Killua blinked. "Whoops, did I say that out loud?"
"Yes you did!" Kaullo said angrily. "Jeez! Thanks to Onii-tan Kaullo will never meet her fated person!"
'Onii-tan so mean….'
Killua gave him a catlike smirk. "Hell yeah you won't."
'So mean… But whatever, I'm already happy that I have Onii-tan by my side!'
Kaullo calmed down and said, "You know. A week after you left, I tried to do the same as you."
"What did you do?" Killua asked curiously.
"Well…"
"Goodnight Kaullo-sama." Elilou said as she tucked the young girl in.
"Good night, Lou-san." Kaullo said.
He giggled silently as Elilou walked out of the room. He sat up and walked towards the door. He was wearing a simple green nightdress and his hair was loose and lightly touched the floor. He sneaked out of his room and went to Kikyo's room. Since Silva wasn't home, he just decided to go to Kikyo. Due to his still childish mind of 9, he figured out that talking with his mother would be the best way.
Soon, he reached a wooden room. "It's now or never…." he murmured while twirling a bit of his hair around his finger. He was sure that this was Kikyo's room because of the Victorian style of the room. He knocked softly. "Come in."Kikyo's sleepy but still high pitched voice said.
Kaullo froze when he was inside the room. He saw his mom(Silva and Kikyo slept in different rooms.) in her four-post bed wearing her glamorous nightgown. His mother was especially beautiful now that she took her visor off.
In fact, she looked a lot like Illu-nii.(He remembered her face before that 'burning accident' she had with her face.) "Kaullo? My daughter, come to mommy. What's wrong?" Kikyo asked.
Kaullo skidded over to her and sat at the side of the bed, looking down at her. "Kaullo misses Onii-tan."
Kikyo sighed. "I know, I know. But don't worry, Illumi will get him back."
"Can I ask you something?"
Kikyo wondered what was going through the mind of her youngest and last(She wasn't planning to have another one!) child. She talked about herself in the first person! "Go ahead, sweetie." She said.
"Mommy, can….can I go out?" Kaullo asked innocently.
Kikyo smiled. "Of course you can. No potty anymore I guess." The woman sighed in relief. Who would have thought that her 9-year old Kaullo still needed her potty?
"Yadda."
Kikyo looked at her.
"That's not what I meant. I don't want to go out of the house, I want to go out Kukurou Mountain." Kaullo looked at her with determination in his eyes.
Kikyo paled. How could her sweetheart say that?! Killua has been a bad influence! "N-Nani…No! I mean, why?" She tried to control herself.
"Because it's fun to be outside." Kaullo said flatly.
"Sweetie, from where the idea?"
"The TV!"
"The Tv. Ehehehe…" Kikyo made a mental note to destroy all the televisions in the house.
"Why do you want to go there?" she asked her child again.
"I want to strip, dance like a slut, get drunk, go to a bar, ride a car, get in trouble and oh yeah….See Onii-tan!" Kaullo said emotionlessly. Kikyo almost fainted.
Kaullo tilted his head to the side. "Can I go?"
Kikyo smiled while that her brow was twitching. "Kaullo…*twitch*….You can go back to your room now…"
"Demo, mommy…"
"KAULLO!"
"The next morning, I had a bandage around my head." Kaullo murmured to himselfemotionlessly.
'I still don't understand why she was so angry….'
Kalluto looked down, but because his shoulders were shaking it was clear that he was laughing. Elilou didn't even try to hide her laughter.
Kaullo looked up and saw that Killua looked pretty pissed. "Soooo….My Imouto wants to strip, dance like a slut, get drunk, go to a bar, ride a car and get in trouble?" he forced a smile. "Interesting…"
'Oh, oh, he seems mad!'
"And also see you!" Kaullo added.
"This is the first time I agree with mother: You better stay at the estate."
'Eh?'
"MOU! Onii-tan so mean!"
'That's not nice, Onii-tan!'
Suddenly, Kalluto's cellphone rang. "Moshi, moshi? Oh Milluki." Kalluto said. "Mm, okay." The line went off.
Kalluto turned to Killua. "Millu-nii got a birthday present for you." he said.
Killua smirked. "Honto ni? I'm excited."
Elilou coughed. "I know that this is unnecessary but…" she got off from her seat and hugged the albino. "take care of yourself."
The white-haired boy smiled warmly and hugged her back. "Arigatou, Elilou."
"Onii-tan…" Kaullo spread his arms wide. "Hug, hug."
"Sure~" Killua picked Kaullo up and hugged him. Kaullo wrapped his legs around his brother's waist and wrapped his arms around his neck. He breathed his brother's scent in."Kaullo really, really loves Onii-tan…" He muttered.
Killua hummed. "I know. I love you too." He then looked at Kalluto. "Come join us, Kalluto."
The second youngest brother looked a bit hesitant as he walked closer to Killua and also gave him a hug. The three of them stayed like that for a while.
