Destiny (Killua x Reader)

Forever ✕ And ✕ Ever

Your P.O.V
I stepped into the shower slowly, my toes flinching as they touched the chilled ceramic floor. My mind was in shreds; I could never get his face out of my mind.

I turned the old and metallic dial, releasing thousands of lukewarm drops which darkened my hair and trickled down my back.

Then it all became clear to me. The warm water which gently poured onto my body reminded me of the tender warmth that was caressing me only moments ago.

"These feelings that have been kept deep within my heart... they've finally found their way out."

"This time, I won't let you go, no matter what."

---------------------------------------

Killua strolled around your bedroom, sneaking peeks at the bathroom door.
"Ughh, it's so awkward standing here. But I have something important that I still need to tell her..."

Suddenly, the sound of running water stopped. He gulped in reaction.

You stepped out of the shower, your hair dripping wet and water droplets rolling down your entire body.
"I need to quickly get out of here... and talk to him again... I want to see him..."

Your heart knew the way, but your mind was in a mess. Being right out of the shower, you were slightly dizzy.

Languishing, you head out of the bathroom and reach out for the bedroom door.

Just as you used your last strength to pull open the door, you collapse onto a certain individual. The water droplets on your body flicked onto his silvery white hair as his eyes widened.

"Wha— Why are you dressed like this!?"
Taken by surprise, he flinched, his cheeks flushing.

"Geez... put on some clothes before coming out, will ya? You're staying with three guys... be a little more careful. What if it was that pervert Leorio that was wondering around your bedroom? Ugh, imagining it makes me sick."

His eyes turned towards you, only to catch a glimpse of the buds on your chest that was being exposed completely.
"When did the towel fall off!? Ughh..."

Blushing furiously, he proceeded to cover up your body with the towel. He picked you up in a princess hug, and carried you onto the bed, closing the door.

He sat on the side of the bed as he gazed at your sleeping face.
"Her lips... look so soft..."

Killua blushes and trembles in nervousness as he stares at your delicate lips, yearning to touch them with those of his own.

He tapped your cheeks gently and whispers.
"Wake up already... please... wake up... if you don't wake up, I'm gonna kiss you."

He leaned in towards you and examined your face closely.
"Was she always this beautiful...?"

The temptation to caress you with kisses was compelling.

Killua's P.O.V
My heart raced in my chest, my pulse pounded in my ears, faster and faster.
"I don't think I can compress these feelings anymore... wake up, or I might go overboard..."

Unable to control my overflowing emotions, I caressed her in the most intimate of kisses.
"I love you, (y/n)..."

I kissed her again softly, with only a hint of contact between our mouths.

It was then that her body flinched a little, and she let out a cute little moan.

"Are you tempting me? Goddammit. Wake up already... or I'll keep kissing you until you wake up."

---------------------------------------

Your eyes open slowly, but your vision blurred. It wasn't long until you realised that you hadn't put on any clothes after taking a shower, and that now you were on your bed, with someone's face in front of you.

"Killu—"

He sat up, and pulled a finger across your lips.

"Shhh. Hurry up and get changed or I'll keep doing what I've been doing."
He said with a smirk.

You felt your face heat up as it began to turn bright red.
"W-Why are you here, anyway!?"

Killua averted his eyes from you.
"Uhh, I was waiting for you to finish showering so we could talk, but you collapsed on top of me... I took it as a chance to tease you a bit," he said, still smirking.

You blush furiously, your expression being a mixture of anger and embarrassment.

"What... did you want to talk about?"

He brought one of his hands to your face and caressed her cheek, and looked deeply into your eyes. He made a face you couldn't interpret.

"I've always been taking people's lives... until I met you.
You were the first person I tried to protect.
I wanted to protect someone.
Not just killing people as I was ordered to, but I wanted to protect something by my own will.
At first, I just wanted to atone for my sins.
I was using you to compress all the guilt that had built inside me.
But when I saw your smiling face... I felt different.
I wanted to protect you.
I wanted to protect something right till the end.
So please, let me protect you... from now on, and forever."

For a moment you were silent, and the corners of your mouth twitched into a momentary smile.
"Nope."

"Huh!? Aren't you supposed to close your eyes and quietly whisper "yes" at times like this? Geez..."

Killua found himself face palming at your response.
"It was a chance for me to look cool after what I did do her after she passed out too..."

A smile engulfed your face.
"Unfortunately, I'm not your typical shoujo manga heroine."

"Killua..."
You whisper tenderly.

A small blush consumed his cheeks.
W-What is it?"

"This time I'll protect you."

"Watch me. I'll become stronger than you. I'll make you fall head over heels for me; to the point where you can never get me off your mind."

Killua blushed for a second, but then regained his posture. He pulled you in for a tight embrace, and forced a kiss upon your lips.

"Hnn—"
You blushed furiously.

He parted his lips from you and smirked.
"Make me head over heels for you? Don't make me laugh. You'll be the one head over heels for me."
