PART 1 IS IN THE 30 OTP CHALLENGE, "FIRST DATE"

A pair of best friends rushed home, the breeze flitting playfully through their hair. The trees and plants became a blurry wall of mostly green, dotted with the waving daisies. They passed the playground again, raising their hands in greeting as they zoomed pass, the kids waved back energetically. Killua flushed slightly at the past event, internally face palming.  Gon just laughed, glad to have such a cute, wonderful person as his special someone.

They reached the door, scrambling inside to prepare their impulsive picnic. The older of the two slammed open the refrigerator door, which somehow did not break, and began to pile meats, a variety of vegetables, some flatbread, and a small watermelon on the kitchen table.

The ex-assassin grinned and ran his hands under the faucet along with Gon, who just smiled back.

"Alright! Let's do this!"

Killua plucked a knife from a drawer and started to slice the meat into thin sections while Gon separated the greens. He tossed the vegetables into a salad bowl and added some tomatoes and cucumbers, finally pouring in the sauce. The boy covered the bowl with plastic, sliding it to the side.

Killua distributed the meat onto the thin slices of bread, rolled them up, and cut horizontally. He made a dozen miniature rolls and placed them in a container, also pushing it aside. While Killua was finishing the main snack, Gon sliced the watermelon into cubes, dumping the pieces into a separate container.

They grinned at each other. "I'll go get a basket!" Gon chirped.

"I'll get the cloth!"

It was almost afternoon by the time they were done preparing. Grabbing the food and the blanket, the two males ran outside, giggling gleefully as they chased each other up a hill. Kilua spread out a blanket and Gon dropped the basket on top.

"Hey! Don't drop it like that idiot!" the younger male scowled.

"Whoops, sorry." said the more childish one as he stuck out his tongue.

Killua flicked him in the forehead, "Idiot."

"Can't you think of any other names besides 'idiot'?"

"Moron. Imbecile. Stupid. Fool. Dunce. Dumba-"

"Ok! Ok! I get it!" Gon wailed, waving his hands frantically.

Killua sniffed, "I could go on forever."

"...Meanie..."

The silvernette just glared back, letting out a sigh. "Yeah, yeah. Hurry up and eat already."

"Haaaai!"

Gon dropped to the floor, landing with his feet crossed, eyes glistening with excitement. Killua raised an eyebrow and sat next to his bouncing friend, taking out the rolls. He popped open the container and set the lid aside, Gon quickly snatched one and shoved it in his mouth.

"Dish is gwod."

"I...can tell..." blinked Killua. "Just. Don't spit on me again."

Said male nodded, munching on another roll. Killua grabbed one for himself and took a bite. The two stared at the sky, pointing out the cotton clouds and the birds that glided over them as they chewed their salad. They spent a few hours sitting on the blanket, laughing at each other's interpretations of a cloud's shape.

Gon took out the watermelon and energetically opened the lid. He then immediately dug out a fork from the basket and picked up a cube. But before he could open his mouth, Killua leaned forward and bit off the piece of fruit, savoring the sweet, watery treat.
