Gon POV

(Goes from when Killua left the room in the morning)

I watched as Killua left, stifling a laugh at how grumpy he looked. It was obvious that I was going to find endless enjoyment being around him.

"Well, I should probably start getting ready for my first class," I mumbled to myself while setting my dishes into the sink to wash, for later.

I then went into my room and grabbed my phone, heading out to get to class, but not before stopping by Leorio's.

Practically jogging down the hall, I knocked on his door, knowing that he'd be up by now, probably getting ready to go to one of his class or to an on-campus coffee house.

My predictions were right. Leorio opened the door for me and smiled, before slipping on his shoes. "I figured you'd stop by or something, so I decided to wait a little bit."

Rubbing the back of my neck, slightly embarrassed about how predictable I could be, I offered a small laugh. "I'm real to easy to understand, aren't I?"

"Definitely," Leorio laughed, before locking me in a headlock as we started to walk down the stairs. "But that's why you're such a good friends... most of the time."

My bottom lip jutted out in a pout, which earned something along a laugh, sounding more like a roar. "Anyways, are you seriously holding a party tonight?"

"Obviously, and you're definitely invited." He let me loose of the headlock before pulling out his phone. "I'll send you the information, but I'm sure you'll be able to tell when it starts because it's going to get loud, quick."

My phone buzzed in my pocket and I nodded. "Well, no need to worry. The life of the party is definitely coming. But why are you holding it on a Monday?"

Leorio just shook his head. "And that, my young friend, is where you fall short on being a true University student. We hold parties whenever, wherever, with whoever. It's your fault if you miss class because of a hangover."

Nodding, I couldn't help but unleash a sly smile. "Kurapika's right, the way you speak makes you sound really old." That's when I took off and started running down the stairs.

"Why you brat!" Leorio yelled, chasing behind me as I started to skip steps. "DOn't tag team on me. You're all just under educated in life. Why-"

He continued on like that for a few minutes, finally stopping when we hit the lobby and earned a few harsh hisses from the students who were still trying to wake up. We each offered or apologies to the room, making a beeline for the exit, and were welcomed with the crisp air that only January could bring.

"So, what class do you have now?" Leorio asked before we started to walk towards the science buildings.

"It's just an introduction to biology, which basically means a class meet and greets. Apparently, we're allowed to leave this class early today, but I plan on staying as long as possible in order to meet others."

"Forever friendly, never change, dude," Leorio sighed before pointing in the opposite direction that I needed to go. "I need to break form you know, but see you at the party."

Jogging of in the opposite direction, I waved. "Okay, see ya."

Taking my turn, I walked towards the science sector and entered the building. "If my memory serves right, then I need to turn here, and it's the fifth door down," I whispered, following my directions and made my way down the hall.

Being correct, as I usually way when it came to directions. I entered to room to see a class full of people, probably first years taking the courses as a mandatory course, and I made my way to the front, sitting down beside a kid who had really thick eyebrows and a buzz cut.
