Perspective of Gon

   I watch Killua from the bed as he picks at his food. We had ordered him room service so he could have breakfast but he's only picking at it now. "Killua?"

   He looks up at me quick. "Yeah Gon?"

   "Are you ok? You haven't said much since we got back to the room and you have barley touched your food."

He nudges his eggs with a fork. "Yeah...I'm fine.."

His tone tells me otherwise. I get up and hug him from behind. "Don't lie to me Killua. Everything going on is starting to get to you isn't it?"

He nods quietly. "I'm worried Gon. What if they are hurting her? What if Hisoka is planning to betray us?" He asks starting to tense up.

I hug him tighter and rest my head on his shoulder. "We will make sure nothing bad happens." I reassure him.

"But I can't stop thinking about it." He places his hand on my arm. I release him for a moment turning his chair around and picking him up. I crash down on the bed with him on my chest.

"Killua. I made you a promise. I won't break my promise. You worrying like you are won't help anything. You have to be calm if you wanna plan for what's to come."

He snorts. "This coming from you? Aren't I supposed to be the level headed one?"

I grin. "Yes. But when you aren't being you I have to be." I kiss him gently. "I don't want you to pull something stupid like I did."

"Which time?" He asks raising an eyebrow and grinning. I roll my eyes. "Yeah, yeah I know. I did it a lot."

He laughs and presses his lips to mine a small smile present. In that moment time seems to stand still. Only me and him. I can feel my heart fluttering in excitement as I return his kiss. His lips are cool and firm. He presses harder, slipping his tongue in my mouth greedily. His motions are slow but needing.

It ends almost as fast as it began. He nips at my upper lip gently before pulling away and tucking his face into my neck. Wrapping his arms and legs around me tightly.

I can feel his warm breath tickling my neck. "Thank you Gon. Even now you can still get a smile out of me." I rustle his hair grinning. "What good would I be if I couldn't make my boyfriend laugh?"

"I'd say pretty lousy." He sits up and looks me in the eye. Staring back into those light blue eyes I feel as though I could be lost in them forever with no escape. I hear him ask something but it sounds muffled.

He starts tapping on my cheek. "Goooooon. Get out of dream land Baka." I shake my head quick freeing me from his little spell. "I'm sorry what did you say?"

"I said, what now? What should we do while we wait for Hisoka to call in?" I shrug. "All I know is that you need to eat food." I say narrowing my eyes at him.

He rolls his eyes grinning. "Fine fine. But you need to think of something we can do in the meantime. Sitting around in the hotel room isn't exactly productive."

I nod. "Okay!" We have a moment of silence before Killua speaks up again. "And don't be a perv! I bet you had something naughty originally planned when we came in here didn't you?"

   My heart jumps. "Whaaaaat? No I didn't.  I swear!" I tell him. Although I'm lying. I did want to suck him off again. I smile innocently and he stares at me skeptically. "I can't tell if you are lying." He rolls off the bed and goes to the seat at the table to eat.

   I let out a sigh of relief and prop myself on the head board of the bed and turn on the tv.

    A couple of hours passed by with no word from Hisoka. We haven't left the room at all. Killua is laying on his back with his head on my lap. "Hey Gon?"

"Hm?" I look away from the tv to him. "Do you really think we can do this? You know how strong my family is."

"It's gonna be hard. We don't have a great advantage but we have done harder things." I say with my finger to my chin in thought. Killua frowns. "Harder than taking on the strongest assassins in the world?"

"Okay maybe not this hard but we still did some really hard things!" I pout. "Like when we tailed those two members of the troupe back a few years ago during the auction. They couldn't find us till that abandoned building."

  "Yeah but when they did find us we were helpless to do anything." He reminds me. "Buuuut! We have had a lot of training since then. We are much stronger." I retort.

   He rubs his yes with the base of his hands. "Maybe. Biskys training was the most brutal. We spent months with her in greed island. Then we had another month with her later on after..." He trails off not wanting to remind me.

   "It's ok Killua. I'm fine." He must have noticed I tensed up slightly because he doesn't continue. "Anyway I think we may have a shot. The window is open!"

   He nods. "It's open, just not very much." He reaches up and caresses my cheek in his hand. Gon..can we.." He doesn't get to finish his sentence due to a sudden sharp knock on the door.

   He sighs. "I got it." He hops off the bed and goes to the door. "Guys! We got a message from Hisoka!" Leorio exclaims before the door is even fully open.

  "About time!" I say standing. "What did he say?"

  "He said that he arrived late due to delays, Illumi has no idea that he's there to help us. And he confirms Alluka is safe. Although her room is a mess. He will watch the family and wait for a potential opening."

   "I wonder if my brother really isn't suspicious of him." Killua says scratching his head. Kurapika shrugs. "If I was your brother I would trust him. Hisoka has been a help to me and fooled the troupe for a long time."

"He's helped all of us in some way." I say grinning. "Not me!" Leorio exclaims. "All he ever did was punch me in the jaw then carry me to the second phase of the exam!" We all laugh at this. "I had forgotten about that!" Kurapika giggles.

"Yeah, yeah laugh it up." He groans with a small grin. "We will have to let Ikalgo and Meleoron know when we see them later. I imagine best case scenario is that somebody hires your family for a job leaving them down a few members."

"Do you think Canary or any of the other butlers will help us?" I ask Killua. "Maybe. They have to listen to orders from the family. But if Illumi already said something to them we will be out of luck."
