killua coughed pathetically as gon looked in worry,
"are you sure youre okay, kil?" gon sat up from his bed to go sit beside killua on his,
"im fine.." he sniffed to no avail as his nose stayed stuffed up,
"you sire dont sound fine, you sound really stuffy!"
killua laid back in defeat, sneezing.
gon sighed, getting up.
"where are you going?" killua whined,
"im going to make you some tea! itll help wuth your cold." he smiled warmly, making killias heart stutter.
"how do you know i have a cold.?"
"well, youre coughing, sneezing, and sniffling. also–"
gon reached out to feel killuas forehead,
"–your forehead isnt warm. which means its not a fevor. and it doesnt seem all that painful right? so it cant be the flu. the tea will help your throat and ill grab some medicine too. sound good?"
killua blushed, how did he end up with such a lucky best friend? yep, just friends. leorio tried to convince him to tell how he really feels but killua is too chicken.
when he asked how him and kurapika got together for maybe some advice, he said they had lots of tension and when it became obvious, they started to kiss.
killua said that was gross but inside he was freaking out, i mean, imagining kissing with gon was crazy! just thinking of it makes his face flush red.
killua didnt have to dwell on it for long since gon soon came back with a cup of hot tea and two pills.
kilkua greatfully took both anf easily took the medicine befire his tea. gon always knew how to make it right, just now killua liked it.
as killua sipped the soothing drink, gon scootched beside him.
"arent colds contagious? youre going to get sick."
"they are! but thats okay, i can take care of myself, plus i like being near you, killua!"
"idiot..." killua looked away to hide the heat rising to his face, quicking taking another sip.
after killua finished his tea and set the cup aside, he snuggled into his bed, gon staying at his side quietly.
"goodnight, kil."
"im not going to sleep."
"oh, alright then."
gon got under the covers, now face to face with killua.
killua felt relaxed for the first time since he got sick.
"hey, kil?"
"yeah?"
"youre really pretty, yknow?"
"...you think?" killuas cheeks pinken in the dim light.
"definitely."
"i think youre pretty too."
"yeah?"
"yeah."
is it just killua or are they closer now? gon leaned closer and gently pressed his lips to killuas.
killua obviously was shoked for the few seconds gon did that before coming to his senses, cheeks rivaling the colour of roses. (🌹)
"y-you idiot! youre gonna get yourself sick doing that!
"i told you, kil, i wouldnt mind being sick with you. i like you."
he felt frozen again. was this really happening? the boy hes liked for forever whom he hadnt confessed to because he didnt want to damage the friendship they built together?
killua leaned forward to kiss him again. gons lips were soft and sweet. it was gentle and awkward but still one of the best things killua couldve asked for in his life.
gon kissed back equally as soft and they did so for what felt like an eternity to kil.
but when they pulled away, it felt like they hadnt kissed for long enough at all.
in the dark, they both broke put in giggles.
wow, guess leorio was right. this isnt gross at all. he could get used to this.
