Hello! Well look here it's the tenth chapter :)

I'm sorry I haven't been able to add more, but I promise to add up the eleventh chapter tomorrow! (I'm not sure though I have to go school -_- but I PROMISE!)

I've been spending a lot of time reading manga too instead of writing, so I'm sorry ^^v

~ I don't know if "Yorkshin City" is correct, because I was thinking that maybe it's "York Shin City" instead of "Yorkshin City."

Flashback:

I wrapped my arms around his neck, tugging him closer and closer to me. His scent. The years that passed might have changed it, but it's still there. That familiar scent of him. I missed it.

"H-Hisoka .. " I said in the middle of the kiss. Yes. It's him. This jester is really Hisoka, no doubts about that now. He's proven himself quite enough.


"Hey Y/n, are you gonna join the school trip? I bet it'll be lots of fun," Tera asked me smiling. She's in the same class as me and she's a member of the student council. They're in charge of the preparations of the activities that'll be held next month.

"Err .. I don't actually know. I'll ask my grandmother first," I answered, returning her smile.

"It'll be wonderful if you could join. Most of the places we'll visit will be in Yorkshin City. It's a three-day travel, so we'll be staying in a hotel." she stopped, then added. "And I think after the three-day trip, the students who joined the trip and those who're interested can join the camping. It will be held just outside Takizawa City. It'll also be a three-day camping, so you should join." she was smiling again, and she's really pretty. She kind of like give me all the details, and I think it looks like she really wanted me to join. Well maybe that really is her job. She's very responsible. I like her.

"Yeah, sure. Count me in." I answered. I don't know if I really can join, since I haven't asked my grandmother first — I really don't want to ask my father. I know he wouldn't permit me to join. He's kind of evil, not wanting me to join anything here in school. Good thing grandmother is always there. I know she'll be okay with it.

"Oh really?" Tera's voice change a little, making it a little high pitched. It sounded like a ... mockery. "That'd be great." she smiled, her voice came back to it's normal tone. She then left and went to her friends' table.

"Are you really going to go?" someone said, and I think it's talking to me. That voice. I know that very well. How can I not know?

It's Hisoka. I turned to face him and smiled. "I'm not sure. I haven't asked my grandmother about this yet. But I kind of want to try . .. and join them," I said, referring to our classmates who's chatting happily, as if having no problems at all.

He smiled. "Nnn. Of course."

"So . . should we join?" I asked him. "What do you think?"

"Hey guys, look. Hisoka and Y/n. They're actually talking."

"Why is he talking to her?"

"Does he have any idea how rich her family is? He's no match for her. He's from Meteor City, isn't he? He should know his place."

"I wouldn't talk to her, either. She looks scary."

"Yeah. Her father will screw you if you talk to her."

Those were .. . . really something. I was silent. I don't know how to react to it. They're my classmates. I know everyone always keeps an eye on me, since my father is rich and all that. And also, because of that, I don't have friends at all. No one approached me in the first day of classes until now. And so since then I'm always alone. They would only talk to me when they need to ask or clarify something, just like Tera a while ago.

"Why you .. ." Hisoka was about to punch one of them but ...

"No! Hisoka stop." I grabbed his wrist as he was about to go for the hit. "It's.. It's not worth it .. " I whispered.

Right now, I feel angry. I'm feeling like I'm about to explode in anger — my reaction was a little slow, though. But still, how dare them insult Hisoka like that. They have no right to say such things to him!

"Tch." I heard him said. He took a step back, rubbing his forehead.

*SLAP*

"Idiots." I said as I slapped one of them in the cheeks — the one who's always very loud and would always say insults and such. They talk too much. I can always hear them talking, gossiping about everything. I even heard myself being insulted sometimes — make that most of the time — but I would just let it go. I would always think, "It's not worth it." "They're so noisy." "They talk too much." "Don't mind them." "I'll just mind my own business." "No, I can't hear them." "I can't hear anything." "Wow, this is a beautiful day for insults, I'll let them go." "Just let it go." But now, I can't bear it, insulting Hisoka, saying things to him. They can insult me all they want, talk bad things about how my father is such a powerful man and all of our money, but they can't do that to Hisoka. They just can't. I won't forgive them.

Everyone inside the classroom stopped whatever they're doing and is staring at us. The whole room was silent. Oh. Damn. I'm making a scene now.

"S-Sorry, Y-Y/n!"

"W-We're really s-sorry!"

"S-So sorry!"

Baka! I thought. So now they're apologizing? They were just insulting Hisoka and me a moment ago, and now they're saying sorry? What's wrong with these people? Are they mentally fit?

Hisoka grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the classroom. He was walking fast, dragging me with him. And I think he don't know where to go. He's just walking while tugging me in the hand.

We ended up in an empty Science Room, which was on the fourth floor. No one was around the time we got to the fourth floor. He entered the room, pulling me with him. Once we were inside, he locked the door and kissed me.

I was surprised. But then I welcomed him, kissing him deeper.

"I'm sorry you have to hear those things," he said, his forehead resting on my forehead. He's just an inch away from my body. I can feel his hot breath on my mouth.

I sighed. "I hate them."

He chuckled. "You're very brave back there." he said. I felt my cheeks burn. We're now together for over a year but I still feel shy around him. Especially when we're this close to each other.

I smiled at him. "I just don't want to hear them talking crap about you."

"I don't like it when they talk like that about you, too. They're so noisy." he answered.

"Yeah. But . . what now?" I asked him. I wonder what came to our classmates' mind when they saw Hisoka grabbing me by the hand, walking out of the classroom. Would they think that we're in a relationship or something? But they can't come to that conclusion. Hisoka and I have always been careful when we're in public. So maybe they won't come up with that kind of idea. Maybe they would just think that we just walked out of the room because of the situation, that we're just escaping the occurrence.

"Hey," he said. He smiled then kissed the tip of my nose. "Don't worry. They won't find out." then he kissed me again. His hands on my hips, pulling me closer to him.

Right now, I don't want anything. I just want to be with him in the moment. I don't care about my classmates. I don't care about what they have to say or think. I don't care about anyone. I don't care anymore. Right now, what matters is that Hisoka is here.

I want to join the school trip to Yorkshin City to be with Hisoka. I want to join the camping to be with Hisoka. Maybe the real reason why I wanted to join both of the activity is because I know that Hisoka will join, and that means more time with him. Maybe it wasn't because I wanted to mingle and associate with my classmates. It was all because of him. I just wanted to be near him for as long as the situation would allow. I won't let anything to slip out and miss a thing, especially when it's about being with him. I . . I really love him. So much.
