A stormy night [ Illumi x Hisoka ]

A/N: Yes i made the drawing above, please don't steal or repost :)

It was around eight in the evening, the sun had risen down and the street lights were on. Clouds started to gather and rain started to fall. The rain became more dense and thunder and lightning started to roar. Warnings were sent everywhere, recommending people not to go outside and to turn off power in case of lightning crashing in.

Illumi was searching for the right switch between all the cables and other things to be found in a fuse box. After trying one of the last switches Hisoka finally responded, telling him it worked.

He walked back to the living room to see Hisoka having lined up scented candles that smelled like vanilla and pines. He was seated down on the floor, in a crosslegged position with in front of him the coffee table where all the lit candles were placed.

What caught Illumi's attention was that he had his hair down and was wearing an oversized white dress shirt with black sports leggings underneath. It was unusual to see Hisoka in his pajamas at this hour.

"That actually smells quite nice." Illumi remarked as he sat down on the couch across Hisoka.

"Inspired by the smell of your hair," Hisoka gave a wink before blowing out the match that lit the final candle, "If we're going to be without power tonight, might as well make it something special out of it."

"What do you have in mind, Hisoka?" Illumi tied his hair into a long, high ponytail that still reaches his lower back.

"I thought," His hands went under the table, as if he was looking for something. Without breaking eye contact with the not impressed boy he pulled out a small duralumin case and put it on the coffee table. He opened it in a dramatic way, as if he was showcasing it to an entire audience, "I could finally paint your nails." The case was revealed to be filled with a rainbow of nail polish colors and some other nail related items that Illumi could not identify.

"Hisoka... you know I prefer my nails nude." Illumi stretched his arm to check his long nude matte nails.

"Well Illumi, I prefer you nude too right now but you kept complaining about your ass hurting from yesterday." Hisoka rolled his eyes as he started cleaning and taking off his fake red nails to put on new ones.

"What color do you even want to paint on my nails?" Illumi slid down from the couch to also sitting on the floor now.

"I was thinking something dark with yellow accents to match your overal outfits and needles color scheme." Hisoka pulled out a base coat and nail oil to keep their hands hydrated.

"Speaking of outfits, those woolen sweaters are almost done. I just need to knit one sleeve." Illumi laid down his hand in the table and Hisoka started cleaning his nails as well.

"You mean the matching Christmas sweaters?" Hisoka's face had a smile, it was small, but very genuine.

"Yes, although I still do not comprehend why it was necessary to have those."

After finishing the base coat on all nails, they both blew on their nails, waiting for it to dry.

"Doesn't matter, just promise you'll wear yours on Christmas?" Hisoka had a small smug on his face.

"Fine. Also I have noticed your hair color growing out again, when do you want it dyed again?" He pointed at the small black roots emerging from Hisoka's blood red hair.

"I'm actually kind of digging the black roots, so maybe I'll just keep the roots only. Wouldn't that be cool?" He blew on his fingers one more time and then started picking out colors for the next layer of nail polish.

"I assume so." Illumi's corners of his mouth curled up a little bit. It was hard to see, but unmissable for Hisoka. Illumi was never an expressive person, but Hisoka learned how to read him. The expression that was presented on his face right now was happiness. Illumi's face looked like he is comfortable and happy to be here with Hisoka, even though they were doing something tiny and silly like painting nails.

Thinking about it, a lot of their activities were the things that little girls would do at sleepovers. Hisoka had a big love for braiding Illumi's hair, and in return he would teach Hisoka how to sew little plushies out of felt. By now they cleared out two wooden shelves on the wall that was slowly starting to fill up with those plushies.

After putting on the final layer of nail polish, Illumi's nails were finished. They were pitch black with yellow dots on it. "Hm, cute." Illumi said softly as he stared at them.

"Glad you like them." Hisoka gave him a small forehead kiss before standing up to put all the supplies that had to be cleaned in the sink. "I'll clean that up later." He said and waited for Illumi to suggest a new idea for what to do next.

"I'm starting to feel tired, we could sleep on the couch?" He glanced at the couch and shrugged.

"Sounds good." Hisoka replied and sat down on the couch, waiting for Illumi to curl up against him.

He got up and crawled up in his arms, head against Hisoka's chest. Hisoka grabbed the blanket that was behind them and threw it over both of them. Illumi closed his eyes for a swift moment before opening them again.

"Hisoka, hands off my ass."

"Since when am I forbidden to lay my hand on your ass?" he said surprised.

"You can lie it on my ass, but right now you're squeezing it. This isn't the time to be horny."

"Fine." Hisoka saïd with disappointment and let go of his ass.

"Goodnight, Hisoka."

"Goodnight, Lumi."
