[14] Way To Kick Off The Summer

TW!! : Topics of Self Harm , Retz (may be uncomfortable for some viewers)

beginning of summertime arc??

The situation pertaining to the nudes, that one fateful evening in November, was glossed over easily. I mean, if by easily you meant explaining everything to your brothers only to be almost outed to your mother at nearly every turn then, yes; it glossed over easily.

Of course, Kalluto had always said that it was an accident, and that he never meant to almost slip up so often. Kalluto was his little brother, anyway, he was safe. Killua trusted and loved his siblings with all of his heart.

Luckily for Killua, Kalluto eventually dropped it. After about a week after that night, he never brought up anything ever again, and that was that.

In any case, a lot had happened from October to November, but it was all done and past. Dominic stays in his place, Mito is like a second mother to him at this point, and Killua's siblings simply don't care that he's gay.

Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, Easter—the school year passed them by and summer was rapidly approaching until it finally arrived. Having been dating around eight months now, Gon and Killua grew more comfortable with each other and themselves. They experimented and reached a mutually comfortable equilibrium where the relationship didn't feel awkward or weird.

Though Killua hated summer, he couldn't help but feel excited for Gon. After all, watching Gon all but vibrate in his seat while Mito drove them to the airport overfilled him with serotonin. It was almost contagious.

"Hey, so, before you meet everyone, I want to establish some things. Knuckle's a hugger; if you don't want a hug, please communicate, because he will not stop hugging you the entire summer. As for Zushi, don't point out his teeth. At all. He went through a bad depression spell, but he is doing better."

"Oh, I'm so glad." Killua perked up.

"Yeah, me too!" Gon shook his hands as if they were wet. "And—And Ikalgo, he's pretty chill but he might ask to see everything you deem valuable. Again, please establish boundaries." Gon sighed.

"Okay, I think I got it. Establish boundaries with Ikalgo and Knuckle and don't comment on Zushi's teeth. Got it." Killua checked off his mental checklist. "And Retz? Anything I need to know about her?"

"Oh! Yes, so Retz is—Wait. Why'd you say it like that?" Gon raised an eyebrow.

"Like what?" Killua shrugged.

"Like, heeeerrrruhhhhhhh." Gon mocked jokingly.

"I did not! You're so overdramatic!" Killua punched his arm and folded his arms.

"Whatever, whatever." Gon laughed it off. "Okay, so Retz is kind of energetic, but um...I told you we were together for a time and she hasn't fully accepted I've moved on, so she might be a bit...condescending or nosy. But she's trying! And I am so sorry, I wish I could fix it all but—"

"No, it's okay. I can handle myself, Gon." Killua offered his best fake smile. "And I'll do my best to get along with her as well. Even if she's condescending and nosy. The two most unbearable traits a human being could own..."

Gon didn't let Mito reach a full stop before he jumped out of the car and ran inside the airport through the automatic doors, Killua struggling to keep up. All the people around him was unbearable and Killua so desperately just wanted to catch up so he could have someone to grab onto—someone to drag him through the human traffic of LAX.
