"I wanna know more about you."
You two sat criss-cross-apple-sauce opposite of each other on your shared bed, cigarette smoke puffing from your lips as all the windows were open.
It was a risky question to ask, that's for damn sure. But being stoned made the question roll right off your tongue, and well, Hisoka was pretty high as well.
"What else is there to know? You know me better than I know myself." He takes the cigarette out of your hands and takes it into his own mouth.
You roll your eyes at his question. "I don't know like anything about you.. All I know is how much you love bubble gum."
A puff of smoke rolled over his top lip as he spoke, "Ah yes, Bungee Gum. I could really use some right now. ♠" as fast as the sparkle in his eyes appeared, it disappeared as a frown tugged at his lips from the mention of his favorite brand going bankrupt.
"Sooo.. Tell me at least something!"
"Well, there's a lot to unpack with that question."
Watching Hisoka puff another cloud out of his mouth made you all giddy, even if you didn't know much about him, his appearance could almost make up for the lack of knowledge.
"Well, start somewhere.. Anywhere."
Hisoka taps the cigarette on the ash tray, and grinds it to mush, lightly coughing when some ash enters his nostrils. "Hm, let's see. A while ago I was disqualified from the first Hunter Exam I took as I almost killed a judge-"
"Woah, really? The Hisoka Morrow disqualified?" you interrupt him," what happened??"
He lights a new cigarette with a few flicks to the lighter, "He was a poor excuse of an examiner. I didn't approve of his skills."
Hisoka passes you the cigarette while blowing out a ring of smoke. It always impressed you how weirdly talented he was at smoke tricks.
"Crazy. Well, good on you if he was a bad examiner."
He chuckles softly, "In the next year's hunter exam, the examiner came back for blood. Unfortunately, he wasn't nearly as exciting as I thought he would be." he let's out a dramatic sigh.
"Disappointing," he hums in agreement.
You light up with a new question to ask, "Tell me something about your childhood.. Like how you found Bungee Gum or something!"
He jerks his head up and chuckles, "Feeling bold, are we?"
You pucker your lips and put a cigarette to them. "Maybe.. -"
The pale moonlight casts shadows upon your face, your eyes sparkling with an ethereal glow. Your doe like features and glossy lips has Hisoka intoxicated. He wouldn't say he's in love- he can't be. But you're the reason he doesn't disappear for months on end like he used to.
You break him out of his trance by moving your hands in his face, "Come onnn, tell me at least something about it."
"Hm, what do I get in return? ♦"
"A hug.? Or a kiss.. Whatever you prefer."
"Mm, I'll take the kiss." he says while slurring the the 'mm'. "When I was a child, my family was very poor, we couldn't afford Bungee Gum often. And when I did manage to get my hands on it, I would chew a singular piece of gum until it got very rubbery and would lose all its flavor."
"Oh.. That's sad.. I'm sorry.." you say, not knowing how to respond.
He blows off your sympathy, "Now.. Where's that kiss? ♥ "
You roll your eyes at him, "Fine.." you get on your knees and grab his head tightly, smushing your face against his. You leave his lips with a 'mwah' and sit back down.
"Happy?" you say teasingly.
"Very." he says, licking his lips.
You let out a big puff of smoke right in Hisoka's face while you giggle. He huffs and inhales all the fresh piney grey fumes, finishing with a sigh.
"You were in a circus, right? I think I remember you mentioning a circus once or twice.."
"Oh! So you do know more than you let on.." he snickers.
"Whoops."
"But to answer your question, I was. I joined the circus when I was around.. Seven. The ringleader scouted me out, realizing how talented I was, he invited me into the circus. I developed my nen around that time, as well. ♦ "
"Wow, you must've been a realll talented child prodigy." you say sarcastically.
"I was. ♥ " you roll your eyes at his response. "Now.. Let's hear some of your own stories."
You tap the cigarette ash off on the ash tray, bringing it back to your mouth. "There's a ton I could talk about." you smile.
"We have all night, don't we?"
