WTH [GonKillu] and [LeoPika]

•°Shopping°•

  "It's SO hard to find good fabric and materials these days!" I groan (It might've been a moan though 👀), stretching at the word days.

"Killua, I'm pretty sure it's not that bad. We've already found like, um, enough to fill about... seventy-eight bags?" Zushi says brightly. He is carrying most of those bags, and yet he hadn't complained one bit, nope. He's even smiling. I guess it's because he's never been able to shop and get this much stuff at the mall before. He told me.

I smile internally. He's so adorable nyaaaaaaaaaaakkkkk🥺🥺🥺 I feel like it's my duty to protect the little bean and be a sister- I mean, brother figure to him.

Kura nudges Zushi and gins. "He's tryna get his man. He'll need way more than these to impress Johnathan."

  "Oh, screw him," I say cheerfully as I check out a roll of white ribbon, "I got over him for, what, about a week by now."

  "Woah." Kurapika says, stressing the 'w'.

  "Why, what happened?" Zushi asks, absently examining a tube of lip gloss.

  "He asked Neon Nostrade to be his date at the Halloween party, she said yes. So I figured I'd be better off going with you guys."

  "Damn Kil. You're - like - I don't know..." says Kura. "Anyway, hurry up, bitch, don't forget we still have to get extensions and hair dye." He reminds me.

  "Here's a better idea; why don't you two get me a cart and just go get your God damned things?" I say, starting to get annoyed.

  "Fine." Kura huffs

  "Fine!" I agree.

Zushi stares at us. "I'm going to get my own stuff." He says finally, after a bit of struggle for words.

  "Yes, you go get your accessories. Come back later, we'll pay for you." I tell him. Zushi nods and stalks off. I think he's a little mad about me and Kura arguing.

Oops. I forgot I was supposed to be a brother figure.
Well... I'll treat him to melon-pan later, then.
And maybe Kura as well.

__________________________________________________________

  "Sssssso," Kura begins,"who're you going go with to the party, then?"

  "Oh, I don't know," Zushi shrugs, "I mean I barely know anyone here..." He bites his lip. "And I don't get along well with some people." He mutters.

I put my arms around him sympathetically. "We understand. Not everyone has good taste. And never mind the complete scumbag Neon Nostrade." I add fiercely.

Zushi just looks at me with an expression of utter boredom mixed with disbelief. "It's not Neon the Problem Princess I want to pick fights with. It's that cow, Retz the Ratz. No, comparing her to a cow would hurt me even more than it hurts cows in general. And only Heaven knows what her surname is, but I... kind of called her an orphan because of that. I got in detention on my first week." He confesses.

  "Holy. Shit-ness. Of. Living. Wills." I breathe.

  "God damn... especially when you're one too..." Kura whispers.

  "Well, she insulted me first!" Zushi flares up. Aaaaaand he goes ranting on about the fight. It's quite amusing really, except the part where Retz had hit him and he didn't hit back, just to avoid things going worse.

"... At that point, I just wanted to kick her so hard that her annoying ass goes flying out into space or rip her curly blonde wig CLEAN off her head, but noooooo! I had to mind my reputationnnnnn! I'm seriously, and I mean SERIOUSLY fed up with the people here and it's only been my third week.
"Not only that event, earlier this week, my next-door locker neighbor slammed me against the poor lockers, then put my books in the drinking fountain and turned on the taps (IDK what those things are called). I asked him why he did that, and he said, I quote, "Oh, it's this thing we do to welcome new guys", except we both know I'm the only new kid this term."

At this point, I could feel my blood rushing to my head. Kura's eye twitches, both his irises bright red.

  "What does your locker-neighbor look like?" I ask in a shaky voice. I am trying to keep calm and not yell. Apparently, the morning yoga isn't working.

Zushi stares at me. "Long hair, brunette, tall, big head but unfortunately small brain, doesn't shave so there's hair all over his face, disgusting." He emphasizes the last word. Kura's eyes goes a deeper shade of scarlet.

  "He did that to you on your first day, then?" He asks quietly.

  "Just as I put my stuff in. Why? Who is he?" Zushi asks.

I glower. Zushi glances over at me.

  "That looks ominous." He observes.

Kura took a nerve-steeling breath. "Zushi... I see you've met Johnathan."

  "WHAT?!"
______________________________________________________________________________

"What the hell, Killua? And you had a crush on that stinky guy?" Zushi hisses.

I fiddle with my bangs. "I mean, that last part you said when you described him isn't true. And the big head is only part-accurate. I won't argue about the smelly part though." I murmur, almost sheepishly. Zushi wrinkles his nose in an Illumi-like fashion.

"And you liked him." He repeats.

"Never mind that," Kura says briskly,"what else did he do to you?"

"Called me short, insulted me about my family even though I don't have one, told me I'm never gonna worth anything, you know, the usual." Zushi rolls his eyes and then glares at the lamppost we are passing, all while shrugging.

I immediately scream, "He WHAT?!" and Kura simultaneously shrieks, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN, 'THE USUAL'?!"

Zushi looks at us with a mildly concerned, mixed with a 'keep-it-down-will-you-?' face.

"Chill-ee, guys," Zushi shushes us, glancing quickly around, "it's only out of spite."

"Don't you go EMPATHIZING with creatures like those!" I fume.

Zushi gives me a withering look, similar to that of a librarian.

"Sorry," I mutter.

"Listen, I can handle things on my own. Someone who really needs your concerns is this Muslim girl in school - I think her name's Melanie... no... Mel... something..." He says, his voice trailing away.

"Melody?" Kura speaks up.

"Melody?" I echo, "The one with the Hermione Granger teeth?" I am surprised - I mean, I've seen Melody cuss Fei-fei (Feitan) out, so why couldn't she do the same to Johnathan?

Zushi nods, "That's the one."

"Her teeth is nothing to make fun of!" Kura says hotly.

"No shit." I reply, offended. "We weren't insulting her! That was actually a compliment!"

"I mean, she is pretty smart. And kind. Best librarian ever lived, best therapist I've consulted so far. Beats Master Wing, and defenitely you two." Zushi adds nastily.

"I am going to claw someone." Kurapika snarls, his eyes blood-red, appearing to not hear Zushi.

"Hey, that's mean, Zushi!" I say, stung, pretending Kura hasn't spoken out of line.

  "For what?" Zushi seems to ask the both of us.

"For bullying Melody," Kura scowls as I whine simultaneously, "For making your words sound like a savage bee!"

"Killua, I like you and everything, but what the fuck?" Zushi says. Then he turns to Kura. "I need you to keep my grades stable with all these crazy shits going on at school, so don't go overboard." He warns. "And what the hell." He adds, directing it to both of us.
