A/N:

(1) This chapter is cute, although it has some not so innocent parts...these two need to behave but I guess that is impossible with Hisoka around =.= lol

(2) Oh my…you guys are so amazing! You have helped me so much with your reviews in ways that are unimaginable. Can you believe that I started this fic on a whim six weeks ago and have already posted eleven chapters? And I have others that I'm working on in draft-mode. I've written enough altogether (drafts and posted) to qualify as a novella! LOL this is like the book I've always wanted to write – pity I can't publish it (haha) but that's ok because I love doing this for everyone who likes this couple. And you know what's motivated me to write this much? You all! Thank you for your constructive reviews and for the new reviewers and old ones too!

(4) Question:

Panda Master X: haha yes it's ridiculous; parents seem to have a radar whenever one pulls out any electronic device. At home, I'll be on my laptop for hours typing and they'll pass by and say things like "oh, like you're glued to that laptop" / "come and hang out with us and watch TV…you're always there…" lol. So when I was in the car, I pulled out my notepad and started writing for this story and my sis was like "wow you're doing work? That's tough!" and I laughed to myself knowing that I had tricked them LOL. Paper seems to bypass their technology radar XD

xXIvana BraginskiXx: don't feel embarrassed for liking that scene, it happens to me too! At one time I almost got caught writing that scene by a friend ! Lol

(5) Oh and I'm happy you all liked the last chapter! I can understand why some of you would feel shy reading it – it took me so long to write the really hot scenes. I would work on future chapters and avoid that hot chapter until I had enough courage to. And I was blushing so hard too…it felt so real!

Warnings: Rated M for suggested as well as a few depicted scenes (a bit of exhibitionism / voyeurism).

Chapter Eleven: D' Pastry Shoppe

NB: Day 5-6

Gon looked up at him, entranced by the dark passion and silent promise in those eyes – knowing that it was going to be anything but a simple shower.

And he was right...

It wasn't.

XXX

Needless to say, after that shower, the rest of the day was spent occupied in bed until they were both thoroughly exhausted and satisfied. And later that evening – right before sleep finally claimed him – Gon lay on the large bed among the tousled silk sheets staring up at the white ceiling.

His body was drained and unwilling to move but his mind wandered.

This is crazy...

Gon would never have dreamed that one day he'd have been in such a position (or positions) with Hisoka...of all people. In the past, he had always felt a sort of weird anticipation, excitement and fear whenever he encountered him, whenever they were about to fight and today it had been no different: every time their bodies had met, every time their lips clashed and they were wrapped up in each other, it felt like they were engaged in a struggle, a confrontation...but of a different kind.

And he anticipated every rematch.

It was filled with unbridled passion and was at times even violent but there would always be a hint of something he did not quite understand, a nuance of gentleness under it all that left him a little confused.

These small gestures of gentleness were so inconceivable that it stirred in him a feeling of vulnerability even greater than what he felt whenever Hisoka brought him to the peak of ecstasy.

It was so unlike how he'd expected him to be and if Gon were to be truthful to himself, he had to admit - he loved fighting Hisoka like this.

XXX

That night, Gon woke up to see that Hisoka was lying next to him on the bed, partially wrapped up in the smooth, silky sheets but mostly exposed as he lay on his front.

It's no surprise...—he thought idly as he leaned over to observe the man's sleeping form—...Hisoka sleeps naked.

Gon stared at him for a moment, blushing when he realized that this was the first time they were sleeping in a bed together.

Oh—

Just then, Hisoka turned, mumbling something incoherent and reaching out to pull him close. Subtly surprised by the sudden warm embrace, Gon couldn't help but notice how natural it felt to be nestled against Hisoka's chest and he smiled to himself as he relaxed within those arms, listening to the beat of his heart and cuddling close before falling asleep again.

XXX

NB: Day 6

That morning he woke to find himself alone in the bed. It felt strangely empty without Hisoka there and he turned over and away from the sunlight that kept trying to interrupt his attempt to sleep late.

"Late sleeper I see~"

"Mmmm..." Gon groaned into the pillow, wanting nothing more than to go back to sleep. Initially he'd thought Hisoka's absence had meant that he had gone out to buy breakfast or something but apparently the man was just an early riser.

"Come on, Gon-kun...time to wake up~"

"No..." Gon spoke into the pillow. "I don't want to..."

"As much as I love your objections, we've got a lot to do today~"

Curious, Gon turned over to look at him.

Seeing that he finally had his attention, Hisoka continued, "Have you ever properly toured York Shin before? ~"

"A little..." Taking a closer look at him, Gon realized that Hisoka was dressed as if he was going out. "Are you heading out, Hisoka?"

"Yes, I'm going out to buy some cards," he responded adding, "Since you haven't seen much of York Shin before, come with me. I'll be heading out soon~"

"Mmm..." Gon sat up, yawning and rubbing his eyes.

Hisoka looked at him and licked his lips. He's so cute in the morning~

Gon glanced over to see Hisoka watching him with an expression that clearly said that if he wasn't already dressed and ready to leave he'd have had him bent over the bed right at that moment.

He blushed.

"O-ok then, well I'm going to take a shower now so…we could leave…"

Swinging his legs over the side of the bed, Gon kept his head down; focusing on the sheepskin area rug under his feet in an attempt to hide his blush.

"You're hard."

"Huh?" Gon looked up at Hisoka, his facial expression clearly reflecting his confusion.

Hisoka did not reply but continued to look downward and when Gon followed the line of that gaze, he gasped.

"Ah..."

There was an obvious bulge in his boxers and instinctively Gon moved to cover himself but it was already too late.

"What are you going to do about it?"

What am I…? He looked up at Hisoka's expectant face, unsure of what response the man wanted.

Well…take a cold shower I guess.

"Um...I-uh..."

"Touch it."

He wants me to relieve myself...in front of him?

"What?"

I'm not sure if—

"Touch yourself. Now."

"Oh..." Gon felt his entire face grow warm. He couldn't help it. That authoritative tone turned him on and he felt his cock twitch, demanding attention.

Maintaining eye contact, he hesitantly reached into his boxers. Feeling the familiar weight in his hand, he trembled visibly as he wrapped his fingers around the pulsing organ, the pleasure almost making him forget his sudden shyness. After all that he'd done with Hisoka, Gon knew that he shouldn't be feeling embarrassed but his face still felt hot as he sat there stroking himself.

Yet it was strangely exciting. He licked his lips. Why did everything have to be such a contradiction with Hisoka?

If Gon were ever to think about it, he could never have imagined how something so private could feel so good with someone looking at him.

He gripped himself harder.

"Mmmmmm…"

Hisoka stood there, arms folded over his chest, looking down at Gon touching himself.

He could already see how slick the hard shaft was from the attention it was receiving. Or was it because he was standing there looking at him? The magician smirked, eyes glinting at the sordid implications.

Maybe Gon liked that kind of thing?

I'd never have pictured him as an exhibitionist~

He looked up at his face as if to confirm this and seeing the look of clouded lust in those hazel eyes staring up at him, Hisoka felt a familiar stir in his loins.

Very nice…~

They had more in common than he could have thought.

Hisoka smirked, fingers pressing into his biceps with trembling fingers as he maintained his position in front of the bed.

More than anything, he really wanted to touch Gon right now. To have his hand there stroking him instead. To steal those lips and bruise them. To completely remove those boxers and make him ride his thick length until they were both satisfied.

And that wouldn't be anytime soon.

He was finding that the more he had of Gon was the more that he wanted. Like some kind of delicious treat. Or a drug. But at that moment, he couldn't touch him – no, not yet.

If only he gave in to his carnal desires right then, they would not leave their condo for days.

"Mmmmm..."

Hisoka's eyes were drawn to the moist, parted lips once more by the barely contained moan.

Gon...

His smirk widened. Without a doubt, he'd love to have those lips wrapped around his shaft now.

Mmmm~

And those eyes focused on his seemed to be daring him to come closer, to touch...

Oh Gon... You have no idea how badly I want you right now~

How much I want to touch...

"Ahhhhhhhhh…!" Gon cried out, his body tensing as he looked through his lowered lashes at Hisoka. His vision was hazy but still clearly able to discern the way Hisoka was looking at him.

He's looking at me like...like he wants to—oh!

The insatiable hunger in Hisoka's gaze was so profound that it triggered his orgasm and Gon trembled, releasing all over his clothes.

"Mmmm…that's a lot~"

At the sound of his voice, Gon looked up at the magician with heavy-lidded eyes and received a smile in return. The blood pulsed in his veins and his anticipation rose at the prospect that he was about to get fucked before they went out.

Gon suppressed his moan, whispering, "Hisoka, I wan—"

"You can go take your shower now~" Hisoka cut in with a mocking smirk, gesturing to his cum-stained vest. "We're leaving in a bit~"

Gon simply stared back wordlessly and utterly befuddled.

What?

But with that last sentence Hisoka had already turned from him and was now gone, leaving Gon to stare after him, needy and confused.

A moment later, Gon took one look down at his clothes and groaned, throwing himself back against the sheets whilst pulling one of the pillows over his head. "Shit...I forgot that I agreed to go out with him today and I was ready to..."

Ride his cock, a voice in his head whispered crudely.

Damn…when did I become such a nympho?!

Gon pressed the pillow harder against his flushed face. His skin still tingled from the excitement of being watched and this only added to his discomfort.

He took a deep breath. So embarrassing…

XXX

York Shin City was quite lively that day. From what Gon could see through the floor-length picture windows lining one side of the establishment they were in, the sun was shining brightly and it was quite hot outside.

There were throngs of people bustling about and idly he imagined just how hot it would feel to be walking in that crowd with the sun beating down on him.

It had gotten considerably more crowded and hotter since they'd come in from the street and Gon couldn't help but think how lucky he was not to be out there in that heat.

At the moment it was a little after midday and they had just finished looking at some interesting sights around the city.

This tour of York Shin involved walking about for a while and checking out anything and everything that piqued Gon's interest – which of course happened to be quite a few things.

So from window shopping in the large shopping center to stopping by the local museum for a quick look, they had seen a lot and somewhere along the way they had even successfully managed to acquire the cards that Hisoka wanted in one of the many variety stores littered about.

And now that they'd accomplished their goal, he was sitting inside a café together with Hisoka having a Strawberry Milkshake, while wondering what to order.

"Is it good? ~"

Gon looked up at the man seated across from him and smiled. "Yep!" He nodded enthusiastically. "It's delicious!"

Hisoka returned his smile. "So what are you ordering to eat? ~"

"I don't know…there is so much good stuff here…"

There was a worried expression on Gon's face as he perused the menu in his hands once more. If he were to try everything that was fascinating him right at that moment, he'd have to order every item.

"Well let me make it easier for you," Hisoka said with a smile. "The Double Chocolate Surprise Cake is to DIE for…~"

"…"

"Not literally of course…~" he added on seeing the wide-eyed look Gon was giving him.

"But it's really expensive…" Gon whispered, as if no customer was allowed to notice that fact.

"What's the problem? I'm buying it for you~"

"But I can't make you do—"

"It's not a problem; it makes me happy to buy nice things for you…~" Hisoka said, smiling when his words caused Gon to blush and look away. If he doesn't stop being so cute…~

"Ok I'll get it then!" Gon finally decided. "I can't wait to try it!"

A few minutes later the waitress brought the cake to their table, smiling as she saw the look of barely contained excitement on the younger man's face.

"This is our café's special," she said. "Thank you for ordering and I hope that you enjoy!"

"It looks so yummy!" Gon exclaimed as the waitress walked away from their table.

"It is yummy," Hisoka affirmed, not taking his eyes off of Gon's face. "What are you waiting for? Dig in~"

Gon speared the dessert with his fork, scooping a sizeable portion into his mouth.

"Mmmm!" he moaned, confirming that it was indeed good.

"Told you so…now wait till you get to the center…~"

Curious, Gon shoveled two more bites into his mouth.

"Ah!" His hand flew to his mouth in an attempt to silence his outburst and he quickly looked over at Hisoka to see that the man was looking at him and grinning.

"Well I'm guessing that you got the 'surprise'…~" Hisoka said with a laugh.

Gon could only nod as he relished the taste of the rich white chocolate filling dispersing on his tongue. It was so good.

Reaching across the table, Hisoka brought a hand to Gon's lips and his eyes widened.

"Wh-what?" he stuttered as the man's finger traced the width of his lips, ending at one corner.

"Chocolate~"

"Huh?"

The magician pointed to his own lips as he drew his finger back, licking it.

"Oh…" was all that Gon could manage as he looked away, focusing instead on the dusty rose pink wall to his right and trying not to get distracted by that tongue…

They were in public but the tension between them was so palpable. He took in a shaky breath, shifting uncomfortably on the vinyl seat.

That tongue...dexterous, skillful, bold and capable of coaxing him into a state of orgasmic—

"Um…"

I need to change the topic.

"H-Hisoka…"

Hisoka looked up from his Raspberry Iced Tea, giving him all of his attention.

Gon fidgeted a bit when those eyes focused on him. What was I going to say again?

Oh yeah…

"Yesterday, you had said something about helping Killua escape Illumi during the Hunters' Association's Elections…"—His brows lifted with his growing concern—"…what exactly had happened?"

"Conscious enough now to think about our previous conversation huh? ~" Hisoka teased.

"Hisoka..."

Hisoka's gaze turned lustful as he remembered what they had been up to the day before. "Well I don't blame you; we really were too busy getting to know each other on a very personal level to discuss anything much...and so many times too...especially after I had you down on your kne—"

"Hisoka!" Gon was utterly flustered. He looked around nervously but the other diners seemed too engrossed in their own conversations to have heard.

Breathing a sigh of relief, he glared pointedly at Hisoka. Is he enjoying doing this to me?

"Ok, ok…I'm sorry…~" Hisoka apologized, trying not to smirk.

Gon eyed him warily. That face looked anything but sorry. He sighed.

"No one told you? ~"

"No…well not all of it..."—Gon huffed in disappointment—"especially not the part about you being involved. From what you said, that should have been around the time that I…was sick…" His face fell for a moment as if remembering something unpleasant, but he shook it off. "It sounds like the situation must have been serious for you to have to intervene on Killua's part…"

"Well, don't get me wrong, initially I may have been part of the problem – for Killua at least~"

Gon looked at him as if waiting for a more detailed explanation.

Hisoka took his time swirling his drink before continuing. "Illumi hired me and we were trying to stop Killua from causing a bigger problem by helping you. It seemed that Killua was willing to harm thousands just to get you back." He paused for effect and took a sip of his iced tea. "But I couldn't assist Illumi to the point that you remained in that state, so let's just say that I helped to give your friend a bit of an advantage at one point~"

"Oh I see." Gon was still curious, especially since he was finally getting the answers that no one had seemed willing to give him. "And Alluka? Killua said that she was the one who had healed me somehow? What do you know about her?"

"Alluka?" Hisoka tried to recall who that was. "Oh...well he—"

"She."

"She?"

"Yes." Gon frowned.

"Alright...She…" Hisoka corrected himself, smirking. "She…has a special power. But it came with heavy risks," he said elusively. "Alluka was the one that brought you back from that place…with a wish~"

"Ah yes, Killua told me. But the part about there being heavy risks I didn't know about. I always felt as if there was something that no one is telling me; a wish just sounds too convenient..."

"Hmmm maybe because it is." Hisoka paused. "There were many casualties as a result of her wishes in the past and Illumi was concerned that the entire Zoldyck family along with an insurmountable number of lives would have had to be sacrificed for Killua's wish~" Hisoka studied the pensive look on Gon's face as he absorbed this new information.

"All of that for me…" Gon muttered, looking up at him. "Were you at risk too?" he asked quietly.

"Probably," Hisoka said, now stone-faced as he recalled what Illumi had told him at the bar that day.

"Oh..."

Suddenly it all became clear to him and Gon frowned.

"Why...would Killua…and the others keep that part from me?"

Hisoka shrugged. "They must have had their reasons~"

Gon couldn't believe it, he never wanted to be saved at the risk of endangering many others.

A worried look descended upon his face before another thought occurred to him.

Somehow Killua must have known that that wouldn't have happened...that no one would have been hurt.

Gon breathed out the tense breath he was holding, glad now that his best friend had taken that chance on him.

I did not want to stay in that place...

Falling

Falling

Falling

Always falling...

So much darkness, loneliness...fear.

While Gon was in that comatose state, most of the time he did not dream but felt like he was either falling into a black pit of emptiness or that he was all alone in a dark room. Even when he did dream those dreams were no better because they morphed into severe, persistent nightmares that felt too real.

Those nightmares, whenever they arrived, always transported him to a dark place where he was wraithlike before a curtained hospital bed looking down at a ruined body that was grotesquely wrinkled, drained, bleeding and lying comatose – the bandages wrapping it constantly bloodied despite being changed regularly.

And Gon had a sinking feeling that that disfigured body had been his.

He looked up at Hisoka who was now regarding him with an unreadable stare. "Yeah…thanks for telling me."

"Not a problem~" Hisoka smiled but frowned as he continued to observe the young man opposite him. Gon seemed a bit downtrodden and he did not like that. "Hey Gon, ready to go? ~"

"Yeah, I guess," Gon replied, now looking and sounding dejected. "I'm done too."

Hisoka's frown deepened and he pressed his hand to the small of Gon's back as they headed toward the door.

With the door's charm jingling behind them as they stepped out of the café, Gon seemed to brighten just a bit when the sunlight hit his face, caressing it and illuminating the green-tinted ends of his hair.

It's not as hot as I thought it would be out here, he thought, taking a moment to breathe in the fresh air before joining the mass of people heading towards the city's hub.

Drawn in by the desire to touch him, Hisoka pulled Gon closer and reached up to run his hand through the tinted, vibrant hair as they walked along the crowded sidewalk.

Gon looked up to see that Hisoka was smiling at him with closed eyes and feeling something in his chest tighten in response to the attention, he returned the smile with a bright one of his own.

This is nice... was the only thought that came to his mind as he turned back to the crowd of people and they trudged along amiably, surrounded only by the din of this crowd and the bright sunlight. Gon wiped the sweat from his brow and suddenly, it occurred to him that it was no longer so bad to be walking together with the throng of people enveloping them in the excessive heat.

Blushing at the thought that it was because of Hisoka's company that he was beginning to feel this way, he smiled wider on realizing too that he was not only feeling happier, but had forgotten what exactly had him feeling down in the first place.
