Hey there. Quick shout out to crkossi! Her reviews are super nice and she just suggested the best thing ever asdfghjkl. :)

Let us get on with it!

~~~Chapter Seventeen~~~

The whole I have been here I have been doing chores. Cleaning the house, washing the dishes, tending the yard, everything. It is easy, but boring.

"Would you like to go to town with me?" Mito-san asks, grabbing a basket. I nod, and take the apron off, tossing it on the counter. My hair is still tied up, but I let it be, as last time I tried to take it out it got all tangled. Not fun when you have long hair.

As soon as we step outside I stop.

"They... They are here!" I exclaim, running past her and heading straight for him.

"Mito-san!" Gon calls, waving. He looks so happy. I run past him and tackle Killua.

"What the-! Shizuka?" he stammered.

"She made me do chores the whole time. I missed you guys," I said, getting off of him and helping him up.

We turn and look at Gon and Mito-san, who are just grinning. We glance at each other and just shrug. What are they smiling at?

Killua and I follow them back inside.

"Alright boys, go take a bath. You're filthy!" Mito-san told them. They groaned and rushed upstairs.

"Don't make a mess!" she yelled. A chorus of laughter erupted from above us, as the rumble of running water shook the ceiling.

"I should've let you go first," Mito-san chuckled, wiping the table a little. I smiled, and say it probably will not be that bad.

And it was not. Some water had spilled over, but it was not terrible.

I started the water again. Mito-san tied my hair up to a bun, which I did not like, but I had to. She then left the room, shutting the door, and I stripped down to nothing.

The water was nice and warm. I decided I would take my time.

I was relaxing, my eyes closed as I daydreamed, when I heard the door open. I figured it was Mito-san, checking on me, but when nothing was said, I peeked over.

I screeched at the top of my lungs.

Killua ran out with his face bright, bright, bright red. Like a tomato.

I felt like my innocence had been violated.

He would pay later.

Is he an idiot? Did he not know I was talking a bath? Wow.

I must have been in a long time. My hands and feet were pruned. I stepped out, dried myself, and wrapped the towel around myself.

Hm. My clothes were gone.

My clothes were not there.

My clothes were not in the room with me.

I groaned, and quietly opened the door. Maybe I could slip past everyone.

Wait. Where are my clothes, anyways?

Oh my god. You must be joking.

I went down the stairs, the towel tightly secured around me. Gon and Killua were at the table, him still embarrassed. Gon turned pink.

"Where are my clothes?" I sighed, not looking either in the eye. Mito-san came walking in, humming joyfully.

"Oh, your clothes are drying. I washed them for you!" she chirped.

"What... What am I supposed to wear!?" I said, just a little exasperated. She could have washed them before I took a bath, or... or something!

She looked at the boys.

"No. No way. No!" I shouted, knowing what she meant. Never!

"All of my clothes are being washed," Gon explained, looking at Killua with a grin.

They... They were planning this!

"... I don't have anything!" Killua said, becoming more red.

"Sure you do! You have some extra clothes in your bag. I saw them!" Gon claimed, waggling his finger.

"I... I would not wear them anyways!" I stammered. My face was hot, signaling that I was just as red.

"You want to stay naked the whole day?" Mito-san inquired with a smile. Ugh!

"I would rather be naked than wear... Killua's... clothes!"

"Yeah! I'd rather that too!" Killua argued.

Everyone just stared at him.

"Wait, no! I didn't mean it that way! I meant-"

"It's okay, Killua-kun," Mito-san said, smirking, "It's impossible to be immune to cute little Shizuka-chan! Especially when she's naked."

I ran upstairs as quick as I could. I could hear them teasing him. Poor Killua. I actually feel bad for him.

Why do they say that?

I sat on the bed in the guest bedroom, and looked out the window. The scenery was nice, with a nice blue sky and ocean, and lush green grass.

I then saw the clothes line hanging up. But the funny thing was, there were no clothes hanging on it.

...

"Mito-saaaaaan!"
