Fem Gon x Killua

CHAPTER 9

SORRY IM LATE, MY SCHEDULES MESSeD UP AND IM STUCK BABYSITTING SATAN (my little brother)

Anyways, ENJOYYYYY

..... what..... HOW DID THEY FIND OUT..?!

My expression falls from concern to utter lifelessness. I was sure I'd hidden it so well, so then, why...?

I look around. At the time, I hadn't noticed, but it would appear that Retz had just happened to walk in at that exact moment. Double whammy. She looks kind of shocked. I look at Retz, who cowers away slightly. I guess that's expected. Ahhhh what should I do now? Oh! Did Killua hear? I hesitantly look toward Killua.

I see Killua looking back at me with an indescribable emotion. What is it? He doesn't look all that happy... Almost disappointed......... That makes sense, what did I expect? I feel myself tear up slightly. I look back at the girls in defeat and leave the classroom and shut the door. Man, where should I go? Oh! I know!

I run down the halls, stairs, and school, surprisingly without being stopped, and make my way to the spot. It's a relatively large tree in the forest behind my house that I used to climb as a kid. It's precious to me, since it's got markings in it from my dad. Over the years, I've made it out to look a bit like a treehouse or deck-like thing by adding a bit more platform and giving a bit roofing, though. I climb the tree and sit on the edge of the platform with my legs hanging off. I sit in silence, calming down from my previous shock. I hope Mito doesn't notice I'm home or have a fit... I probably should've thought of that before I left. AH! I FORGOT MY STUFF, TOO! Guh, I don't know maybe I'll get it after school or something... Suddenly, I hear a rustle of branches, which causes me to jump a bit. I retreat to the innermost area of the platform, listening very closely. Suddenly, a banana yellow haired head pops into view slightly above the platform.

"AH! KURAPIKA!" I run over to help her up immediately.

"Ackk... Sorry for the trouble, it's been a while since I came up here..!" Kurapika says sheepishly.

"No problem, I don't mind! In fact I'm glad you're here! Contemplation was getting kinda boring...!" I say.

"So there was something wrong..." Kurapika mumbles.

I look at what she brought, "Ah! You brought my bag! Thanks, I was worried about that!"

"I had to since SOMEBODY just left it behind?"

"Heheh, sorry!"

"Now, you wanna tell me what's wrong?"

"Well... Yeah, it's.... They found out about it..."

"You mean..?"

"Yeahhhhh...."

"How?!"

"That's what I was trying to figure out! But y'see, one of my classmates really has it out for me cuz.... I may or may not have threatened her a bit by mistake.... A little..."

"Gon! Why?"

"Well... she's just so.... Ugh, terrible!"

"Clearly, but come on Gon, this is serious! What are we gonna do if word gets out about it?"

"I.... don't know yet, but I'll handle it!"

Kurapika sighs, "Nope, I'm calling Leorio." She whips her phone out and dials him.
