The 2 Assassin's

chapter 15

Annaka POV
After Killua and Gon fell asleep I couldn't fall back asleep so I read a book. I like reading books, they make me forget about my own life. Almost as if I'm actually in the book.

Killua was resting his arm on the armrest of the seat with his head in his hand. Suddenly, his head moves from his hand to my shoulder. Immediately when his head hit my shoulder i tensed up as butterflies flew around in my stomach, my face blushing slightly. Eventually I got used to it and continued reading my book. Soon enough, I finished the book, and since Killua's head was on my shoulder, I couldn't move to put the book back and grab another so I sat there, doing nothing. I looked out the window as we flew in the air, enjoying the view of the city.

My mind started wandering back to my family, 'I wonder of he would've done it eventually, even if I hadn't left. He always hated them, he hated me too. Probably why he took his anger out on me during training. Why does my mom always stay with him? Even after all the shit he's done. He's fucked up so many times, yet never once thought about leaving him. Does she agree with him? Does she even care about him killing them? If she does, which is probably unlikely, why does she stay with him. Does my dad actually regret it or is it just an act to get me to come home? Does he know where I will be? Will he come get me? Will he bring me back home?'

I was so caught up in my thoughts that I hadn't noticed gon wake up. "Annaka? Are you okay?" He whispered because killua was still sleep on my shoulder.

"Yea I'm fine," I whispered back, still looking out the window.

"You sure? You're crying," he whispered. I reached my hand up to my face, sure enough it was wet with tears.

"I'm fine," I said, wiping my eyes.

"Are y-"

"Gon, I promise you I'm fine don't worry about me," I stated.

"Okay," he said. It was silent until he asked, "So, what do you think of Killua?"

A light blush appeared on my face, "What do you mean?"

"Do you like him," he asked. "Like, more than a friend."

"I-i don't know why you're asking me this," I replied, dodging the question.

"You're dodging the question," he stated the obvious. "So you do like him."

My face turned a deeper red, "I-i don't know what you're talking about."

"Ouuu you're blushing," he teased.

"S-shut up, you're embarrassing," I whisper yelled. Killua started to stir before his head lifted from my shoulder.

"You ok? your face is red," he asked. "And your eyes are puffy have you been crying?"

"Yup, I'm golden," I stated. Gon whispered something in killuas ear that made his face so beet red. I decided to ignore it and look back out the window. They whispered to each other for a while. It started to make me think they were talking about me.

"Just tell her!" gon said.

"Tell who what," I asked looking back towards them.

"Tell nobody, nothing," killua glared at gon as gon laughed.

"He li-" before gon could finish killuas hand went up to his mouth, the other half of his sentence being muffled so I couldn't hear.

"I'll tell her, when I'm ready," he stated, gon nodded as killua uncovered his mouth. "Anyways, are you sure you're okay?"
