All it Takes is a Little Something

Chapter 20: Alluka and Zoey

Alluka POV

I awoke to a blinding light penetrating my eyes. I halfway lifted an arm to block the sun. Zoe was tucked under my arm; the hem of her bright pink dress was slightly curled. I figured my arm was sweaty after holding her for half a day.

Someone else's hand was on mine. I looked over to see my big brother sleeping... with y/n on his chest!! Dammit! He never tells me nothing!

I would've raised my hand and slapped him dead in his face, had his hand not been on top of mine. But still, I wanted to see them kiss! Just once! That's it!

But, the matter was a bit trivial. I mean, I saw them kiss one other time, right? Isn't that enough?

"Morning, Alluka." Brother's greeting shook me from my thoughts. I smiled at him, happy that he was finally awake. "Did you sleep well?"

"Uh huh. Zoe didn't sleep at all. She's nocturnal." I held her to my chest closely.

"A nocturnal panda... That's cool. Is she sleeping now?" Brother leaned over to Zoe.

"No. In an hour." My mind was very optimistic at the time. I knew the differences between childish and foolish. People think it's the same thing, but Brother says this:

'The difference between foolishness and childishness is this. Being childish is something you'd do as a child. Being foolish is just being stupid.'

"Oh? We've landed." Brother took my hand as he stood up slowly, carrying y/n-née with one arm. Her head was slumped over his shoulder, still sleeping. It looked like she was sitting on his hand. I stood up with Brother, holding his hand, and Zoey tucked under the other arm. We walked off of the blimp, and into the airport.

The clock read 6:00 AM, yet there was so many people...! It was a little bit annoying.

"Fwaaaaaah... Where am I...?" Y/n-née yawned from Brother's shoulder. I smiled a huge smile at her. "Guess where you are, y/n-née!"

Y/n opened her eyes fully and looked around. "Wait-! What? Killua!! Put me down!" Her cheeks became red and she lightly pounded Brother's back.

Brother looked up at the ceiling with a slight smile in thought. "Mm... Nah, it'd be better if you stayed like this. It'll be easier to kiss you."

Y/n grit her teeth in embarrassment. "Just put me down..." She muttered bitterly.

"I refuse!" Brother's smile got bigger.

I plopped on the couch that sat in the new house. Buying the house was easier than we had imagined, and all we had to do now was just wait as y/n calls Rose.

I was fairly hungry, and wanted to explore the beautiful city we lived in. I had spotted a convenient store on the way here. "Brother, y/n-née, can I go to the convenient store for a snack?" I asked.

Brother's eyes immediately flashed with worry. "I'll get it for you. What is it that you want?" He moved to get up from the table.

"No, no!" I looked over my shoulder at him. "With Zoe and the key to the house, I'll be fine!"

"But you don't have a phone, right? I can't let you go by yourself." He argued.

"She can use my phone if she needs you, Killua." Y/n, who was leaning against the wall, pointed out. She held up her phone. "She's capable of calling us, even without a passcode."

Brother looked down at the floor, still uncertain. "Are you sure you'll be fine...?" He asked, not looking up.

"Yeees!" Y/n and I said in unison, nodding our heads several times.
