What Percent? (KilluGon/GonKillu HxH)

Chapter Eight

Gon's P.O.V

I found myself staring at Killua. Kinda hot. Not gonna lie.

I sucked in a breath of air and jumped off of the dirt cliff. I pulled my legs into my chest and used one of my hands to plug my nose just in case any extra water managed to suffocate me. I felt the crispy, salty air flow between my wirey, unloveable hair.

I dreaded the part where I would hit the cold water because it always stung.

Everywhere.

I felt the all too familiar sting in my legs and back that indicated I had indeed fallen into the ocean, and that I am indeed still alive. After surging back above the surface, while rubbing my eyes, I yelled out to Killua, "Come on in! The water's– cold- I mean fine!" After that I had realized if I was ever paid to lie, I'd be the one paying the person who was supposed to pay me.

I intently watched him saunter over to the edge of the cliff, close his eyes, and take a deep breath. And jump... Like a log. He jumped off of the cliff with his legs straight, practically asking to get hurt from the impact of his porcelain skin hitting the choppy water.

Knowing him, he wouldn't feel a thing and was probably just trying to show off. In some weird way, I guess...

Eventually, he also plunged into the icy water, and scrambled to the surface. "This water is fucking ice cold, Gon!" He yelped with chattering teeth.

I looked at him with a grin that I could safely assume probably looked very goofy, and gave him the answer to his non-existent question. "You should've heeded my warning. Now you will pay with icy ass cheeks."

He glared at me, an unamused expression. Mumbling, "What the fuck goes on in that brain of yours? Is there even a brain?" He raised his hand and tapped my head thrice.

"Empty." I told him.

He brought his arm back to his own warmth with chattering teeth. Rubbing his arms he also managed to say, "It's summer, why the hell is it so cold?!" He looked up at the sky with an expression that had anger written all over it.

Miraculously, his teeth stopped chattering. That itself was a blessing. Killua swam farther out into the sea, so I followed after him until he stopped swimming. I splashed some of the water towards his face. He looked at me maliciously, like I had just flipped a switch on in his head.

He smirked and muttered, "Oh, you're on..." while splashing water towards my face. I went under the water to avoid getting splased more and made my way to his feet. Tapping one of them.

He kicked his feet one after the other in response, but I didn't give up on my plan, which was to make him go under water too. I swallowed down the pain of being kicked, grabbing both of his thin ankles. Submerging him under the water with me.

He kicked himself free again after being pulled into the water, and swam down to my level mouthing: this was all within expectation. Opening his arms, he swam over and pulled me into a hug.

Now that... That was not within expectations for me.

Accepting the hug, I pulled him in closer, intertwining my legs with his. This bitch fucking rejected my offer and went all out, wrapping his legs around my waist instead.

A moment later, he stops the contact and rushes towards the oxygen-filled surface. I go up a minute later. It was lonely down there all alone.

I glanced over at him. He was flushed. Still panting from holding his breath for too long.

Peasants. Can't hold your breath for 9 minutes. Get with the program.

I got interrupted from my thoughts to hear his voice saying, "Stop staring at me. It's embarrassing." He raised his hand to scratch the back of his head. I couldn't help but swim closer. And closer. Until he screamed in my face. "G-Gon. What do you want? You're so close!" He mumbled, acting innocent.

"Kiss me." I told him, resting my hands on his shoulders.

He shook his head. "What? K-kiss you? Right now? In the middle of the ocean," He droned. I chuckled.

"That is up to you, my friend." I told him. It was his choice. Always stay impartial, it's legal.

He looked down. "Maybe just a peck."

I shrugged my shoulders. "Ask and you shall receive." I chuckled and placed a kiss on his cheek. That's a good start.

A/N: Fuck life. In no way could I save this chapter.
