{Your POV}

Killua and Gon walked on the sidewalk, their footsteps echoed through the trees. The wind was strong but not enough to be annoying. Killua turned his head to Gon. "So what makes you take this route huh?" Gon was shocked that killua was the one who started the conversation. "Oh uhm! The last one I took.. some of my bullies found out about it and started waiting for me so they could hurt me.. so I decided to take this one instead. I didn't know it was yours! I'm sorry!" Gon chuckled nervously as he rubbed the back of his neck. Killua put his hands behind his head and continued looking forwards. "Eh why do you get bullied? Like what's the reason for it."
The raven haired boy sighed. His gut turned as he thought of the many ways killua could react to his next sentence. "Uhm.. we'll it's because I'm gay.." He had a small smile as he looked down at the ground, waiting for a slap or a push or maybe even yelling. But they just kept walking. "Ohhh so you're that gay kid that everyone talks about" Gon jumped a little "e-everyone talks about?" "Uhuh, people make fun of you and stuff, I mean of course I don't join in. But now that I'm meeting you. You're not even that bad" Gon blushed softly as he looked up at his crush. "Really? You think so?"
His eyes were practically shimmering with joy, killua didn't hate him and he was ecstatic about it.
"I mean yeah, you're pretty cool Gon"
Gons face lit up as he began thinking to himself. 'Don't blow it.. your only chance to get to know him.. don't smother him with affection'
"heh thanks!"
Killua nodded and smiled.

They walked and took a few turns here and there, left and right, talking and getting to know each other very slowly. Suddenly killua stopped and picked a purple flower off the side of the path. Holding it gently. Gons face turned hot as he prepared for Killua to turn around and give it to him. But he didn't? Gon got suspicious and his mind began to race.
'Oh yeah.. that girl he drew in the picture for art today.. I bet it's for her. Why would it be for me? He just met me..'
Gon decided to speak up.
"Uh.. who's that for?"
Killua looked back at the curious Gon. "Huh? Oh the flower? It's for my sister, after school I like to bring her a flower to make her happy."
Gon smiled a little more since he knew it wasn't for a girl killua was interested in. "Oh cool! What's her name?" Killua smiled, it was the brightest smile since they started walking. "Her name is Alluka! She's 11 and in 6th grade. She my best friend in the whole wide world!"
Gon smiled, it seemed like he loved her a ton and it made him happy to see a good sibling relationship. He wanted to see Killuas smile for longer so he did his best to keep the conversation about Alluka.

Gon learned way more about Killuas sister than he needed to, but he didn't care because it was making Killua happy to talk about her. "She was actually born a boy, but she felt like a girl inside so I helped her change"
Gon was slightly confused, but he accepted it. "That's super cool!" Killua nodded smiling at Gon. He was becoming much more comfortable around spiky haired boy.

A large black house came into Gons view. It was taller than any of the other houses on the block and had barely any windows. The ones that were there had curtains or shutters over them. Gon pointed his finger at it "Woah! Killua look at that house!" Killua was already too far away to hear him, since he was walking up the steps of the house. "Whaaa!! This is your house??" Gon looked truly shocked. Killua smiled at him. "Yep, Welcome to the Zoaldyeck Residence" Gons jaw dropped. He was amazed at the amount of money that he and his family had. 'No wonder he's popular his super rich!' But he couldn't shake the feeling of eeriness he had when he looked at at. Like something bad was happening in the house..
This is when Gon had his realization that he was no we're near his own house and was so caught up in walking and talking with killua that he forgot he was trying to get home. "Shoot! I'm not supposed to be here! I'm supposed to be at my house not yours! Oh god I have no idea how to get back!" He started panicking and felt like he was going to cry. He was lost and had no clue how to get home. Plus Killua couldn't help since he didn't know where Gons house was either. Gon looked up at killua with wet eyes and a scared pout. Killua came over and put a hand on his shoulder, smiling with reassurance. "Hey don't worry, you can stay at my place and sleep. Then in morning you can come to school with me. Then get home from there" He looked at Gon and smiled.
The shorter boy wiped his tears away as he looked at him. He was actually quite embarrassed to be crying in front of someone so attractive."Really?? You'd let me stay??"
Gons stomach twisted and turned as he thought of having a sleepover with his long time crush. This was so sudden it seemed unreal. "Sure, but there's a couple things I gotta tell you first.." Gon cocked his head to the side. "Oh? Like what?" Killua rubbed the back of his neck nervously. "My family is uhh.. definitely not supportive of your sexuality.. in fact they've pounded it into me that if I was gay that they'd beat it out of me" He looked sadly down at the floor as Gon did the same. He was entirely shocked.
'Beat it out of him?? They hurt him.. don't they..'
Gon remembered how killua would sometimes come to school with bruises and cuts that were entirely unexplained.
"Ah I see.. well I can hide it!" Killua looked up and smiled. "Ok thanks.. I'm sorry you have to" and just like that he turned around and headed towards the front door.
