Hunter x Hunter // ONE SHOTS

~together~

GON POV:

When I first met Killua in the Hunter Exam, my first thought was, 'oh...a kid like me! I wonder what his name is'. From then on we became inseparable, we did everything together, he even helped me beat the Greed Island Game, and stuck with me throughout the entire Chimera Ant incident for rescuing Kite. Even when I harshly pushed him away, which I still regret till this day, I think about his sad face whenever the memory comes back, I didn't see it back then, but, even though I was entranced by my anger, I could still feel his emotion, and it was....heartbreaking.

I would never do something like that again....he's my best friend after all, and best friends should stay by each other's side always, right? What I did wasn't so best friendly , but I promise I'm gonna make it up to him, even though all the Ants are dead, even though we got Kite back (sorta) I still haven't made things up with Killua and today he's coming to visit me! So this is my only chance not to screw things up again.

I was waiting by the Whale Island docks for Killua, I was sitting on a porch, and below me was the sea, I swung my legs happily but also I was really nervous. I haven't seen him in a year, he must be the same age as me now, maybe he's gotten taller and he will mock me for how short I am still? Did he and his sister find a happy place to live? So many thoughts were running through my head, and I'm gonna get all those answers today....hopefully.

After many boats stopped by, a blue one caught my eye. I saw many different people on that boat, business men, women and men and children, until I saw.....him.

I quickly jumped off the port and ran straight towards the boat. "Hey Go-ooof" I tackled Killua into a big hug, literally flung my body on him, and now my arms were wrapped around his neck, I held on so tightly like I never wanted to let go. "Umm *cough* nice to see you too" I heard him say, I can tell he was a bit surprised and embarrassed but I didn't care...he was here now and that's all that matters.

We've been walking for quite a bit now, In silence, holding hands. I looked up at him, he looked so mature now, he looked like a teen-adult, well we are both 15 now. I can't believe how time flies, we met when we were 12! His hair has certainly grown a lot longer down the back of his neck and his bangs. He noticed I was staring at him and gave me a look "what's up?" He said, I shook my head, snapping out of my thoughts "oh nothing I just thought you look a lot bigger now" I said with a smile, killia fiddled with one of his bangs and blushed "really?" He said and I nodded.

It was growing dark so I thought it would be nice to sit on the beach and watch the sunset together, I've always wanted to do that with him.

I turned to him, he was smiling towards the distant horizon, out into the sky and the ocean. The waves crashing against the shore, and seagulls squawking to each other, saying it's time for bed let's all go home.

"Killua..." I spoke, he turned his head towards me "i ummm-I just wanna say-"
"Yeah?" He questioned "I'm sorry..." I said, quietly, "pff what for?" He chuckled.
"For you know....for pushing you away ....back then" I mumbled. Killua held his head down, his bangs covering his face. "Forget it Gon that was a year ago" he said, I still wasn't feeling right, I wasn't convinced.

"I'm sorry!" I shouted once more, scaring Killua, I went down on my knees and put my head down "I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry-" I kept saying over and over again, until he lifted my head up and looked me in the eyes, "Gon stop doing that" he said "no I won't! I mean it I am truly sorry, I pushed away the one person that will stand by me no matter what, yet you did, you even saved my life, and I didn't do anything to you in return, I feel so pathetic but yet here you are-you're"
"I'm what?" Killua tilt his head, "your-my-best friend" I started to cry.

Killua gasped and pulled me into a hug "Gon I'm not mad at you I was never mad at you, yes what you did was wrong, but no matter if you push me away again I will keep running back, because you can be so idiotic and reckless and careless, I don't suppose you wouldn't even know how to defeat the Ants without me" Killua pouted, rubbing my back. I looked up at him "you mean it?" I sniffled "I never lie-well not to you anyway ehe" he giggled.

"So uh-are we ok now?" I asked, Killua smiled at me "we were always ok. From the very beginning" he said, I smiled back "I'm glad" I said, and I rested my head on his shoulder and we watched the waves and the stars in the sky.....Together.
