That One Girl (A Hunter x Hunter Fanfic)

Falling...

*For Xtra_Library^^*

"What are you doing here Kurapika?!"

"That's my line you know"

The two were obviously happy to see each other again, Kurapika is the one more happier at this moment. For those weeks that he kept on thinking about Sherry... He definitely misses her...

"I thought that you have been guarding Neon...?" Sherry asked.

"I resigned." Kurapika said

"Why?"

"Because I have to do something important."

"Ah... I thought you got irritated to her..." Sherry gave a soft laugh.

"Well...almost..." and Kurapika laughed too.

"Well, how about you? What brings you here?" Kurapika asked.

"Well, the Hunter Association said I should take on a vacation..."

"Well, looks like were the same. A friend of mine sent me tickets to go here..."

Kurapika was talking about Leorio who bugged him for weeks and kept on telling him to take some rest. And as of this moment, Kurapika is silently thanking Leorio...

"Since when you've been here?" Sherry asked.

"I just got here..."

"Oh? Well, I've been here for days. Thank goodness I have you by my side!" Sherry said making Kurapika slightly blush.

"Y-you don't have to be like that, Sherry."

"Whatever Kurapika. All I know is that I'm happy that you're here with me. Atleast I'm not alone."

Kurapika smiled trying to hide his blushing face from Sherry.

"I didn't know that you can be this kind..." Kurapika said.

"Yeah, I was also surprised. Ever since I was a kid, I had a bad temper.... But someone told me that I should not act so tough and you told me not be so trying hard, remember?" Sherry said.

"Uh... You don't have to bring that topic again!" Kurapika blushed.

"Oh my! You're turning red!" Sherry laughed.

"I'm not!" Kurapika said who was trying to stop himself from blushing.

But she's cute when she laughs...

And so they walked away from the beach and went into the center town where they found a lot of good stuff.

"Wow.." they both gasped

They visit every stalls and they really enjoyed each others' company. Some Oceana folks even mistaken them as newly wed couples. Obviously, they tried to say that their just friends. They bought a lot of goodies and other stuffs. Until such time that they found a clairvoyant stall.

"Kurapika, I want to try that..."

"Ha? You want to know you're future?"

"Yup."

"You know that it could be fake..."

"If I had another option then I should have went to Neon..."

Kurapika just let Sherry to go inside. Inside the stall, Sherry found an old woman.sitting on a chair.

"Uhmm...I'm here to..." Sherry was cutted.

"You want to know how you could move on right?" the woman said.

Sherry was a bit surprised... This is no ordinary soothsayer...

After an hour...

Kurapika and Sherry went back to the seashore and Sherry talked about her fortune.

"She said that I would be stucked in a middle of nowhere... Soon I will find myself three islands. The first island is an island I once dwelled in and it's welcoming me once again but I will be hesitating to go back. However, she said that my heart still lies on it so it would be hard for me to forget."

Then Sherry talked about the second island. The said Island holds dangerous environment, it would probably kill her. But soon she would discover that deep inside it holds marvelous secrets she've never seen before.

And the last one, a volcanic island. It's very active due to the misery of the past and harbors great anger and it continues to release them all. However, the volcano tries to calm itself as it doesn't want to put Sherry in danger.

"The woman clarified the fortune. She said that the islands refer to three people. One would be coming from my past and the other two is in my present. She said that the these islands will help me moved on from my darkest past. The first island will show me the meaning of looking back to where you came from. The second will show me the importance of understanding others. And lastly, the third island... It would show me the hidden treasure of forgetting and forgiving..." Sherry explained.

"But I was just wondering, what is this thing you have to moved on from?" Kurapika asked but he was surprised to see Sherry already sleeping at his shoulder.

*heart beats fast*

Kurapika's POV

How I wish that we could stay like this for eternity. When I'm with you, I forget all the pain... Sleepwell, Sherry...
Now playing: Halo- Beyonce

Remember those walls I built?
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound

Author's POV

Kurapika watched Sherry sleep and thinks how beautiful she is. He remembered the time when he first saw her: rude, ruthless, brat, and doesn't care about making people wait...

But now, he was so surprised to witness an angelic-side of her.

I found a way to let you in
But, I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now

Sherry's POV

I thought that I would only show this side of mine to Kira... But, it looks like the real me shows when I'm with Kurapika...

Kurapika & Sherry POV

Thank you for letting me feel this feeling...

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out!

They were like that til sunset and when night came... Kurapika carried Sherry in a bridal style, Sherry moans a bit... and put her into her room and laid her on her bed. When he was about to lay her, their faces are so close and Kurapika has this desire to kiss Sherry... And suddenly, Sherry opened her eyes, surprised to see Kurapika. Their eyes meet each other and suddenly Kurapika's eyes turned red. Not because he's angry but he is feeling intense right now...

He's already in love with Sherry...

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away ....

Kurapika kissed her on the forehead and Sherry closed her eyes...

"Sweetdreams, my Princess..."
