It was a beautiful morning, the sun cast its warm, golden rays through the window of Kurapika's and Leorio's shared apartment. Kurapika was lounging on the comfortable couch in the living room, letting out an exasperated sigh.

"Ugh, I'm so bored today, Leorio," he spoke to his partner who was busy in the kitchen, "And to make it worse, I don't even know what to watch." Hearing his boyfriend's complaint, Leorio poked his head out from the kitchen and replied with a playful tone, "Still can't find something worth watching on Netflix, huh?"

Kurapika let out an exasperated sigh and continued scrolling through the endless list of movies and series on the Netflix screen. He always found himself in this predicament, turning on something random only to quickly get bored and end up endlessly scrolling through titles.

He knew how picky he was when it came to choosing what to watch, and this just made it even more difficult. "Why is it so hard to find something to watch," he muttered to himself in frustration.

Leorio strolled into the living room, a smirk plastered on his face as he observed his boyfriend's frustrated expression while skimming through the endless options on Netflix.

He could tell that Kurapika was struggling to find something to watch, and he thought to himself, "Looks like he's having a hard time finding something to watch again. Time for me to come to the rescue."

An idea popped into his head, a plan to help Kurapika out of his predicament. Leorio walked over to the couch and sat down next to Kurapika.

Leorio turned towards Kurapika and spoke in a cheerful tone. "Hey, sunshine!" he exclaimed. "I saw a new show on Netflix. It's called Hunter x Hunter and it's all about the hunters, just like us!" The corners of his mouth twisted into a sly smirk as he continued. "And guess what? I've heard from Killua that they actually made a show about us!"

Kurapika's expression was a mixture of surprise and disbelief as he looked at Leorio. His eyes widened, and his eyebrows shot up in an expression that only Leorio could interpret.

It was the look of someone who couldn't believe what they were hearing but was willing to entertain the idea, even if it seemed far fetched. "Are you serious?" Kurapika asked, his voice tinged with suspicion. Kurapika quickly navigated to the Netflix search bar and typed in the name , Hunter x Hunter.

Immediately, the search results came up, and at the top of the list was the anime that Leorio had mentioned just moments ago. Kurapika's eyes widened as he saw the familiar cover image and title, confirming that Leorio was indeed not lying.

Kurapika's jaw dropped as he saw the cover photo of the anime, which featured a picture of both him and Leorio, along with the cheerful Gon and his polar opposite, Killua. He couldn't believe what he was seeing, how could they have made an anime about them? Was this really happening? He looked over at Leorio with a mixture of surprise and confusion.

Kurapika's eyes widened as he took in the cover photo once more, his mind struggling to process what he was seeing. "What the... what the heck?" he mumbled in astonishment. "Why is it called Hunter x Hunter?" he exclaimed, his voice rising with his growing confusion.

"Are they shipping two hunters together?" He paused for a moment before continuing, "And why are we in it? I never gave any consent nor did anyone ask!"

Kurapika's initial surprise gave way to a sense of acceptance, and he spoke to Leorio with a mix of determination. "You know what, Leorio?" he declared. "Let's not dwell too much on this for now. Why don't we just give this show a watch and see what it's all about? Maybe we can figure out why we're in it, and what this whole Hunter x Hunter thingy means."

Leorio's smile widened as he moved closer to his feisty, blonde haired boyfriend. He gave Kurapika's head a gentle pat, as if to reassure him. "Sure thing!" he replied, his voice filled with eagerness.

"Gon actually told me that he and Killua have already seen it, and they said it's pretty good, you know!" Leorio paused for a moment before adding, "So let's give it a shot and see what all the fuss is about, shall we?"

Kurapika nodded in agreement, a small, amused smile spreading across his face. "You're right," he giggled. "We shouldn't judge something, especially if it's about us. But you know, I can't help but feel both curiousand skeptical. I mean, how can they possibly capture our story accurately?" he spoke while wondering to himself.

Kurapika's eyes widened as he quickly scanned the screen, taking in the number of seasons listed for the show. With a startled exclamation, he jumped up in surprise. "Oh my god, there are so many seasons!" he gasped, his voice laced with shock and disbelief.

"How did I not even know this show existed?" his question echoed through the room, as if directed towards no one in particular.

Leorio listened to his lover's words, his expression one of mild confusion. He then proceeded to turn on the first episode of the anime, settling in next to Kurapika on the couch as close as could be as the two began to watch the show!

—— ★ ——

After watching the first episode together, Kurapika was visibly astounded. "Ok, I'm in awe here," he exclaimed, his voice tinged with awe. "Why in the world did they make a show about us, and how do they know everything that happened?" His question echoed in the air, the sheer surprise evident in his tone.

Leorio couldn't help but smirk a little at his boyfriend's reaction. He knew that Kurapika was equally impressed and taken aback by the show, just like himself. Without saying a word, he moved closer to the blond and wrapped his arm around his shoulders.

"Oh, sunshine," Leorio drawled in a seductive tone, recalling the scene from the first episode of their first interaction. "You also looked really cute in that episode while attempting to save that one guy from falling off the ship."

He pulled Kurapika closer, his arm still wrapped around his shoulder. They were practically ontop of eachother at this point, Leorio's gaze fixated on his boyfriend with a mixture of admiration and affection.

Kurapika couldn't help but roll his eyes at his boyfriend's embarrassing words, feeling both embarrassed and amused. Ignoring Leorio's words, he decided to take things into his own hands by maneuvering himself onto his partner's lap. He then reached for the remote control and turned on the second episode, his focus shifting towards the screen once again.

Several hours later, Kurapika and Leorio were still immersed in their show watching, their eyes wide as they continued to watch. Suddenly, they encountered the character Tonpa, and their faces immediately twisted into expressions of bewilderment and disgust.

"Oh no, I completely forgot about this guy," Kurapika muttered under his breath, the memory of their encounters with Tonpa flooding back to him. "He was so stupid and that stench. It was unbearable when we were trapped in that room," he added, shuddering at the recollection.

Leorio couldn't help but agree with Kurapika's sentiments. "God, I know right?" he chimed in with a grimace. "Tonpa was a complete idiot. And don't even get me started on that stench. I swear, it was like being trapped in a room with an obnoxious walking gas station."

Kurapika chuckled to himself as he adjusted his position on Leorio's lap, his body moving slightly. "You know, Leorio," he teased, a sly grin on his face. "If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't have been stuck in that room in the first place."

Despite their long past together, Kurapika couldn't help but see the humor in the situation. "Oh, well," he continued, his smile widening. "The past is the past, I guess. Let's get back to watching the show now."

They reached the episode where their group, consisting of Leorio, Kurapika, and Gon, had finally finished the Hunter Exam. As they watched the events of the show, Kurapika couldn't help but realize how since the show begun, all the characters seemed so affectionate with eachother in ways.

It was probably because everyone knows Leorio and Kurapika are in a relationship, same with Killua and Gon, so they just wanted to add it for drama.

He turned to Leorio with a slightly flustered expression, saying, "Wow, I don't know if I can finish watching this. Everyone acts like a zest fest!" He paused for a moment, wondering if that would be a correct word choice for how they acted, after a moment he realized it was a perfect word choice!

The hours had slipped by, and it was now early in the morning. They had unintentionally stayed up all night watching episode after episode. Kurapika was starting to feel the effects of not sleeping, feeling tired and weary. While still on Leorio's lap, he stretched himself and then leaned his head against Leorio's neck, seeking some comfort from his boyfriend.

Leorio chuckled, agreeing with Kurapika's observation. "Yeah, I didn't realize they made us so... fruity, to be honest," he mused, scratching his chin thoughtfully. After a brief moment of contemplation, he placed his head on top of Kurapika's, finding comfort in their closeness.

Kurapika's eyes widened as he launched into a list of fruity metaphors, comparing their relationship to a fruit salad, a fruit smoothie, a fruit pie, and more. Leorio couldn't help but chuckle at his boyfriend's antics, finding his enthusiasm entertaining.

However, as Kurapika continued to list more fruity comparisons, Leorio decided to step in and stop him from getting carried away. With a grin on his face, Leorio placed his hand over Kurapika's mouth, effectively shushing him.

Leorio's eyes widened in surprise as he felt Kurapika's tongue on his hand, which was covering his mouth. "Eww," he exclaimed, feigning disgust, "Has my sweet little sunshine turned into a dog?" Leorio joked, bursting into laughter with a playful tone. He removed his hand from Kurapika's mouth, now curious to see what his boyfriend's response would be.

Kurapika remained silent for a moment, a mischievous smirk playing at the corners of his lips. Without uttering a word, he leaned in and planted a big, affectionate kiss on Leorio's lips, his fingers gently gripping the edge of Leorio's shirt.

Kurapika pulled away from the kiss and wrinkled his nose at Leorio. "You know what, my dear...?" he said, a hint of teasing in his voice. "Perhaps you should go take a shower. You kind of smell." To emphasize his point, Kurapika gave Leorio a quick sniff and then making a face of disgust.

Leorio chuckled sheepishly as he realized how accurate Kurapikas statement was of his smell. He hadn't had the luxury of a proper shower in a while due to his demanding work as a doctor, and after an all night anime binge, he definitely could use some freshening up.

Leorio groaned as he got himself up from the couch, his body protesting momentarily from the sitting for so long. As he stretched, he replied, "Yeah, yeah, okay, I'm going."

He sighed while speaking, he did feel quite tired now after the long day and then not getting no sleep, not that he regrets any time spent. "It's morning, but I don't have work for a while, a few days to be precise."

He then ruffled Kurapika's hair affectionately before continuing, "How about we go to sleep once I'm done with my shower, sunshine?"

Kurapika returned Leorio's smile with a soft one of his own, his eyes glimmering with affection. "Yes, yes, okay," he agreed. "But you better not keep me waiting, Doctor Leorio," he added, his voice dripping with playful sarcasm.

Leorio stepped into the bathroom with a towel in hand, looking over at Kurapika. "You all done, sunshine?" he asked, a hint of anticipation in his voice. Kurapika simply smiled in response, confirming that he was finished. "Yep!" he replied cheerfully, "The bathroom is all yours now." With a final smile, Kurapika left the bathroom, leaving Leorio to his shower.

Kurapika headed into their shared bathroom and climbed into the bed, finding a comfortable position as he prepared himself for some much needed rest. Meanwhile, Leorio closed the bathroom door, undressing himself to get ready for his refreshing shower.

The sound of the shower running filled the room as he stepped under the water, enjoying the heat and feeling the day's stress slowly wash away.

Leorio's strong figure was silhouetted through the shower curtain as he diligently washed his body with the green apple scented body wash. He gently massaged the soap over his skin, enjoying the refreshing scent and the feel of the lather.

Once he was satisfied with his body, he turned his attention to his short black hair. He squeezed some apple scented shampoo onto his palm and proceeded to lather it in his hair, the fruity fragrance filling the steamy bathroom.

After a few moments of enjoying the warmth and relaxing shower, Leorio turned off the water and stepped out. He wrapped a towel around his waist, his toned physique now visible. Leorio then began to dry himself off, gently rubbing the towel over his body and taking care to dry his short black hair. Despite the calming shower, he found himself humming a cheerful tune, allowing his mind to wander to thoughts of Kurapika.

As Leorio carefully dried his hair, taking extra care to avoid catching a cold, he found himself smiling as his thoughts drifted to his boyfriend, Kurapika.

He chuckled as he remembered how his lover had gotten excited about their anime binge watching time earlier. Leorio couldn't help but look forward to crawl into bed with him and sleep away the rest of the day, enveloped in each other's warm embrace.

After Leorio had completely dried off and brushed and flossed his teeth, he slipped into his cozy pajamas, the soft fabric a welcome change from his usual suit and tie. Taking a moment to admire his reflection in the mirror, he felt a sense of satisfaction wash over him.

Leorio smiled to himself, feeling calm and ready to crawl into bed with his loved one. A sigh of happiness escaped his lips, being fresh and clean made the doctor feel invincible.

Leorio strode out of the bathroom, his footsteps light and agile. With a swift move, he flicked the switch, turning off the lights in their apartment one by one.

As he made his way into their shared bedroom, he felt a sense of anticipation growing inside him. He knew that Kurapika was already waiting for him inside, eagerly awaiting his return to the comforting embrace of their cozy bed.

Leorio's voice was soft and gentle as he spoke, filled with affection. "Hello, sunshine," he spoke, his smile warm and tender. Kurapika, who lay half asleep, let out a low grumble in response, his sleepy state still evident. Leorio chuckled softly at his boyfriend's sleepy demeanor and made his way into bed, joining Kurapika under the covers.

Leorio settled into bed, his presence waking up his sleepy boyfriend as kurapika began to wake up. The blonde smiled, his half open eyes roaming over Leorio's freshly bathed form.

"How was your shower?" he asked, inhaling deeply. "You smell like green apple, my favorite," he continued, a hint of fondness in his voice.

Leorio flashed a warm smile, his eyes sparkling with a hint of playfulness. "Of course, sunshine," he responded, his tone affectionate. "I know how much you love the scent." As he spoke, Leorio got up from the bed and quickly grabbed a few fluffy blankets, knowing that they would add a cozy touch to their cuddle session.

Without looking, Leorio began to throw the fluffy blankets on the bed, when he turned around he couldn't believe his eyes, Kurapika was covered with the blankets, except only his head could be seen.

Leorio chuckled at the adorable sight of Kurapika peeking out from under the blankets, his expression resembling a grumpy little bunny. As Leorio approached the bed, giggles escaped his lips, unable to contain himself from reacting to his boyfriend's cuteness. "Someone seems to be a little grumpy bunny under there," he teased, his voice filled with affectionate amusement.

Leorio climbed into bed, his smile still on his face as he watched Kurapika discard the blankets and throw them over to leorio in an angry manner. Leorio couldn't help but chuckle at the display of pouty behavior, finding it endearing as always.

"Oh, come on, sunshine," he said, settling down beside Kurapika. "It's a little funny," Leorio teased playfully, trying to downplay his boyfriend's grumpy expression.

Despite his efforts to stay grumpy, Kurapika found himself unable to resist the warmth and comfort of Leorio's embrace. He blushed as Leorio wrapped his arms around him, pulling him closer. Kurapika snuggled into Leorio's chest.

His body instinctively seeking the closeness and safety that only his boyfriend could provide. He grumbled softly, but his earlier annoyance was quickly replaced by a sense of contentment and affection.

Leorio enveloped Kurapika in a tight, protective embrace, holding him like a gigantic teddy bear. He buried his face in the soft strands of Kurapika's hair, inhaling the familiar scent and savoring the moment.

Leorio couldn't help but smile, feeling a wave of happiness wash over him as he held his boyfriend close. He planted a soft kiss on the top of Kurapika's head, quietly expressing his affection without words.

The room was full of darkness, except for the occasional sliver of light filtering through the blackout curtains. Leorio lay beside Kurapika, his mind wandering to the recent anime they had binged watched.

After a moment's pause, he finally spoke up, curiosity lacing his voice. "So, how did you really like that anime about us?" he asked, his tone soft and thoughtful.

As Leorio's question echoed through the dark room, Kurapika's eyes widened in response, the memories of the anime rushing to the forefront of his mind.

The show had indeed been heavily based on their own lives and relationship, and it had made for a fascinating watch experience, watching it made him remember all the times in the past, it made him feel many different emotions all at once.

Kurapika took a moment to gather his thoughts, reflecting on his true feelings about the anime. He admitted that he had enjoyed it, but added a curious question.

"Honestly, I did like it," he began, "but I'm wondering how come I had no idea it existed? I mean, it's about our lives, and it features us quite frequently, I mean not as much as Gon and Killua but they are the main characters in the story!" His voice held a hint of astonishment of how someone could possibly make an anime about them
and their life!

Leorio chuckled softly, his voice muffled as he spoke into Kurapika's head. "You're right though and the actor playing me could have been much better," he agreed, a hint of playfulness in his tone. "I mean, seriously, they could have just asked me to play myself instead of hiring some amateur." Kurapika couldn't help but roll his eyes at Leorio's self declared stardom, a small smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

Leorio could sense that Kurapika was already worn out, his fatigue evident in his weary expression. Instead of continuing to engage in conversation, Leorio chose to allow a comfortable silence to settle over them.

He relaxed deeper into the bed, relishing in the soothing presence of his beloved boyfriend. Leorio closed his eyes, savoring the peaceful tranquility of the moment, knowing that Kurapika was by his side.

"Leorio?" The man in question heard Kurapika's voice calling his name, and he responded with a soft hum, indicating that he was listening.

He opened his eyes lazily, turning his attention towards his boyfriend, curious to hear what he wanted to say. "Yes, sunshine?" he asked, his voice gentle but filled with genuine interest.

"I love you, and i'm so very glad to be here with you, and spend each of my days with you," Leorio's heart warmed at Kurapika's declaration of love, and his smile broadened. Returning the sentiment with fervor, he replied, "I love you too, sunshine. And I'm so glad that we're here together." The depth of his affection was evident in his voice, as he gazed at Kurapika with tenderness in his eyes.

Leorio knew that their love for each other was what truly mattered in this moment, and he cherished every moment they shared.

Leorio felt Kurapika relax even more in his embrace, his body molding perfectly into his own. With a satisfied sigh, Leorio pulled his boyfriend even closer, their bodies pressed together in a comfortable and tight embrace.

As they lay there, their breathing syncing up in a soothing rhythm, Leorio felt a sense of peace wash over him. The weight of the day's events melted away, replaced by the comfort and warmth of being with Kurapika. Leorio closed his eyes, allowing sleep to slowly overcome him, knowing that they were safe and loved in each other's arms.
