Once they arrived at the Theater, they could already hear Bisky yelling demands at people as if she ran the place.

Killua rolled his eyes as he opened the  theater doors and walked through as if he didn't have a care in the world.

Which is pretty darn ironic since he came from a family of assassins.

Bisky's attention then turned to them.

"You three are late." She barked out, giving Killua a glare.

Killua returned the glare before giving her an extremely believable excuse.

"Yeah, we know. We were at the Nurse's office since Kurapika got injured in gym today." He said, pointing to the band-aid on his forehead.

Bisky looked at Kurapika for a minute as if wondering if she should believe Killua's excuse or not.

"Well alright then, you're excused. Just get ready to practice the next scene." She said, before running off to yell at some tech people.

"Quick thinking Killua!" Gon whispered, making Kurapika nod and let out a breath of relief.

Killua just nodded in response.

"Don't worry about it." He said, before walking off with Gon to go set up the next scene.

Kurapika saw Leorio walking towards him and felt his face begin to turn red.

"What happened to your forehead?" He asked, his voice full of concern.

Kurapika felt his face get even hotter if that was possible.

"Oh um, Feitan hit me in the face with a dodgeball in gym class today." Kurapika explained, making Leorio nod.

He could've sworn he saw a devilish glint in Leorio's eyes for a second, but before he could clarify that it was there, it was gone.

Kurapika just shrugged it off and walked up onto the stage alongside Leorio.

Kurapika picked up his script and read over it for a bit.

It seemed that the next scene would indeed be the kiss scene.

He took in deep breaths trying to calm himself down.

He didn't know what was wrong with him.

Why am I so nervous? Me and Leorio Sensei kissed in the classroom just the other day.

He sighed, getting ready to rehearse the scene as soon as Bisky yelled out the word action.

"Action!" Bisky yelled out, making Leorio look down at Kurapika's desk.

"Ugh, Mr. Nawagawa I can't understand any of this!" Kurapika said, pulling his hair.

Leorio watched Kurapika as he pulled at his hair and chuckled a little.

"Look, its quite simple Takashi. You just use the Pythagorean theorem to find the other side of the triangle." Leorio said, showing Kurapika how to get the correct answer.

Kurapika's eyes widened. "Oh! I know how to do it now! Thanks again Mr. Nawagawa!" He said, before hugging Leorio.

Leorio smiled and hugged him back.

"Anytime Takashi." Leorio said, smiling.

Kurapika slowly looked up, noticing that Leorio was staring at him.

"W-What is it M-Mr.Nawagawa?" He asked, quickly looking down at his desk to hide his blush.

Leorio chuckled for a bit, before putting his hand under Kurapika's chin and pushing his head up so that he was looking into his eyes.

"Alright, Cut! End of Scene!" Bisky said, making everyone clap for the two.

Leorio smiled at Kurapika.

"Good work." He said.

"Thanks, you too." Kurapika said, returning the smile.

Funny how everyone knew that their acting seemed a bit too real to be just acting but them.
