Pink Moonlight
Where there is a vast sheet of green grass and countless trees in various heights and sizes, a wide spread of dark clouds hover over the forest. Between the gaps of the clouds, a canvas of dark grey sky illuminated by tiny dots of twinkling stars and the round full moon.
On the green floor danced a little girl at the age of 12 with pastel pink hair tied into two low ponytails. Her snow white dress hung loosely on her shoulders in spaghetti straps, showing her glowing skin under the moonlight; although, her skin is a little tan if it were reflected by the sunlight. Light ruffles of her white dress waved to her moves, complimenting her seemingly pale and smooth slender legs when the hem lifts up.
Each step she took sang grace and every fling of her arms mimicked the delicate wings of a fragile butterfly. A melodious hum resonated from her thin throat and a mesmerising velvet voice escaped her pink lips. The combination of both will swoon anybody and just stop to stare at her beauty, listen to her angelic song.
Behind the thick forest bushes hid a young kid with snow pale skin and white silver hair. His presence go completely oblivious to the cherry maiden on the grassy dance floor under the spotlight of the moon.
He was dazed by her perfection, with the attention provided by the moonlight, it only complimented her more, contrasted with the dark background.
His heart hammered his chest as his breathing became more difficult, tingling sensations of tiny butterflies courses through his veins, sending shivers down his spine as he admired her very being. His mouth hung agape and his body shook in anticipation to touch her, feel her in his arms.
Finally, she stopped in a pose where she balance herself on one leg, the other leg stretched up and her arms in the perpendicular position of her legs, Her chin pointed upwards, guiding her gaze to the moonlight which does not seem like a pure white colour anymore. Beads of sweat formed on her forehead and trickled down her cheeks like tear drops. She finished her performance with a satisfied smile; then, she stood properly and wiped her sweat off her face with a soft sigh.
The blue eyed boy who was left speechless at the rare sight felt relieved that the pleasurable torture has ended; he debated if he should let her acknowledge his presence. Feeling a little guilty for spying on her without her notice, he decided to make an appearance. An unknown part hidden deep within him wanted her to know he was there, that he has seen her when she gleamed under the luminescence of the moon; he wanted her to know that only he will see such a brilliant act from her, he will never share her beauty with anybody.
He pushed the bushes apart and took a step. The rustling of the dull green leaves startled the pink haired female. Immediately, she relaxed once she met his cold blue orbs which soften just enough to be noticed. A light blush of pink crept up her cheeks in embarrassment as she stammered a few words towards the silvernette.
"K-Killua??"
"Tsukino." He replied in a monotone voice, but a smirk formed upon his pale lips.
"D-Did.. Did you..?" She trailed off, praying intently that he has not seen her shameful dance awhile ago. A deeper shade of pink dusted her cheeks, making it closer to the colour of red.
He stepped closer to her until they are just half a metre apart.
"It was beautiful." He whispered.
The cold breath released by his hot cavern touched her cheeks and deepened her rosy cheeks even further.
She creased her eyebrows and pouted a little at the compliment. To Killua, she looked adorable.
"Idiot!" She yelled softly and tried to punched Killua's chest which her fist is caught by his larger hand.
With a gentle tug, he pulled her and she toppled against his chest. His free arm snaked around her petite waist. He earned a cute little squeak from her which he chuckled in reply.
She huffed in frustration, but wrapped her thin arms around his hard waist and snuggled her face into his chest, inhaling his comforting scent which feels her with security.
"I hate you, Killua." She stated against his chest, her voice muffled by his cotton shirt.
"I love you too." He grinned and squeezed her tightly in his arms, but delicately as if she is a fragile little being.
A short moment of silence passed before Tsukino spoke again.
"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be in Heaven's Arena?"
"Well.. Today is a very important day~" He replied in a sing-song tone.
She looked up from his chest and gave him a questioning look. Her large red eyes sparkled adorably and it melted his heart greatly, increasing the pace of his heartbeat. A smile grazed his lips and he parted a little from their embrace.
He lowered his lips and pressed his soft lips on her forehead, letting it linger for a little moment before pulling away. His gaze scanned her angel-like face and his heart warmed when her cheeks flushed a bright red, knowing that he is the only one who has this effect on her and hopefully, he will be the only one.
"Happy Valentine's Day, Tsukino."
"Happy Valentine's Day to you too, Killua..!" She beamed at him. "I apologise for forgetting this day.."
"It's fine, you're working hard in your training."
"Thank you for coming all the way here for me." She said in appreciation as she lived all the way in a desert and he has to leave Heaven's Arena coming for her.
"Pleasure is all mine, Tsukino. Pleasure is all mine." He muttered as he lift her pink hair and peck it.
"Killua.." She whispered with a deep shade of scarlet painted across her cheeks.
"Yes, princess?"
"I-I love you!" She exclaimed and flung her arms around his neck, pulling him closer to her and pressed her pink lips onto his.
As soon as their lips touched, she pulled away and hid her face on his chest in utter embarrassment.
Killua who seem stunned from her boldness, recovered from his shock and fail to suppress the girly blush on his cheeks. His right hand lifted her chin to gaze into her red eyes and smiled.
"You have no idea how much I love you..."
Suddenly, Tsukino's eyes widened and she gasped as she stare mindlessly at Killua.
Killua, getting alarmed, pulled away and grabbed both of her arms gently.
"What's wrong?" His asked in a stern voice, the sweet moment they had earlier temporarily forgotten.
She moved her gaze from him and looked at the sky; the moon to be precise.
"The moon! It's glowing pink!" She exclaimed in awe and her gaze followed by the young boy who held her.
They both stared at the rare occasion and he once again, made her blush by his heart melting words.
"Earlier when the moonlight shone upon you, your pink hair reflected it's colour, you looked somewhat like the moon you're staring at now. Only, you were much more captivating."
Not only did she blush vigorously, she punched him on the arm and he did nothing to stop her as he laughed at her cuteness.
"Idiot! Idiot idiot idi-"
He pulled her towards him and with a hand at the back of her head, he gently pressed his lips on hers, silencing her playful tantrum of embarrassment. He enjoyed the sweet taste of her lips and the soft feeling of it against his.
Both of them shared this moment under the once in a lifetime, pink moonlight. Kissing under the pink moonlight on Valentine's Day, exchanging the love they hold towards each other through the actions of their lips.

Once again, this one shot has NOTHING to do with the actual story. I'm simply using my OC because writing "(Y/N)" is not my style and I'd hate to create a character for just a one shot.
Anyways, I really hope you liked this one shot! :D Comment some feedbacks to help me improve my skills!
Happy Valentine's Day, everybody~! <3
