Tell me - [Killua X Reader fanfic]

Pillai | Part i

As soon as you were seated on the bus, you felt some sort of tension leave your body. Killua locked eyes with you at that exact moment, and you both seemed to say apologies that were never meant to be. Something weird had just happened on the blimp and you racked your brain for some sort of excuse.

Period symptoms? No, Killua would understand that rather than get annoyed. Maybe travel sickness? Nah. Kou's presence? Impossible, he was your biggest supporter when it came to Killua..whether he supported it as a friendship or..you didn't know. 

After sitting in silence for twenty minutes, you decided that there was no reason you find. All you could do was try to make up for the shitty blimp ride you and Killua had just experienced. Now on the other side of the bus Killua was staring at you. He tried everything his brain could think of to find the reason you both annoyed each other the way you did.  Nothing like that had ever, ever happened.

Popping his gum? He would've threatened to stick it in your hair and you would have had a playful chase.

Interrupting him about the nen thing? He would've congratulated you on learning.

Both times you injured him? Just, hands down, wouldn't have happened if he was in his right mind. You wouldn't have even have gotten the right throwing grip on him. And the last part before leaving the blimp..made him a little excited on the inside because he did have a soft spot for bikini's. But it wasn't the time to be thinking about that, sadly.

"How many days are we here for?" Gon asked Kurapika as he shrugged off his green jacket.

"Seven days." Kurapika raised a hand as Gon opened his mouth, "and yes thats enough time on the beach. You know theres other places around the world with beaches too."

"No other ones with Kou though!" Gon pointed out, making Kou blush.

"Am I not good enough?!" You interjected and were immediately greeted with Gons apologies and waving hands. You laughed lightly before sitting back and looking out the window, Killua's eyes trained on you.

That was his [Name]. She had been so different on the blimp, he was stilled irked by it. Something was different as soon as they stepped into the shop and the general Blimp station. Had there been something in the air? Hold on. That was it exactly. There was literally something in the air, and the both of you had been so ignorant even after pointing it out. The pink haired woman's Nen, the both of you had reacted reversely to the way everyone else had. While it calmed others, it seemed to ignite some unsaid feelings maybe that came out wrong. 'So she had focused specially on me and [Name]? No..' He began to space out and try deduce the puzzle that was no where near completed.

Gon had noticed Killua spacing out, however thought it was his way of planning how he was going to spend the holiday. Afterall, You were the closest to Killua out of the group so he would feel most responsible. That probably meant he wouldn't be with Gon much..but that was ok. It was only temporary. Right?

"What time is your Blimp ride back Kou?" Kurapika turned around to talk to the man who was seated beside Leorio.

"Ah it's the last blimp on the seventh day," Kou said happily. He had picked the latest blimp he could find. The group began to chat about what they wanted to do while Kou was there, who was rooming with who and such. You knew you would have had to have gotten a room to yourself, being the only girl and everything.

Booking into the hotel and settling in was all a hazey blur. The sun was beating down on you no matter where you went in the hotel, some modern architecture involved way too many windows. It was a nice hotel though and Kou certainly loved it as he immediately changed into his shortest pair of shorts and the lightest tank top which was embarrassing enough. He didn't stop there though, and you painfully watched your brother put on layers of sunscreen and tan boosting products, not even rubbing any of them in.
