Illumi currently found himself at a karaoke bar with Killua, Leorio, Gon, Kurapika and the phantom troupe. It would of been good but he just couldn't stand to see Hisoka and Machi together, his heart ached at the sight of the two of them together.

You see Illumi has been in loved with Hisoka for the longest, they even went out for two years and a half. But broke off due to Hisoka falling in love with the pink head, it broke Illumi but he broke up with him. It hurt him but as long as Hisoka was happy, he was fine even though all Hisoka saw him as was a friend.

He sat a table away from the couple with Killua, Gon, Kurapika, and Leorio. He looks down at his glass of sake, " come on anki cheer up " Killua spoke. Since Illumi started to express his emotions Killua and him had a better relationship.

" It's just hard, I mean it's bearly been two months since the breakup. I'm still healing, I don't understand I've been used to pain, why can't I get over this? " He spoke taking a sip out of his sake. The four felt bad for him, " hey maybe if you hear one of us sing, I'd get your mind off of things " Gon spoke.

" Yeah, come on anki~ " Killua spoke, " yes, I suppose " he spoke smiling a little. All four were happy to make a bit of progress, but before any of them could go to sing, someone beat them to it. It was none other then the magician himself, " this song is for a special somebody~ " he spoke the music beginning to play.

Oh, her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shinin'
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful and I tell her everyday
Yeah, I know, I know
When I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me, "Do I look okay?"
I say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
Yeah

Her lips, her lips,
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful, and I tell her everyday
Oh, you know, you know
You know I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
You know I'll say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause, girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are

The way you are
The way you are
Girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause, girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
Yeah

Once he was finished, Machi was blushing a bit looking to the side. Illumi drinks his cup of sake, the four were quick to notice. Killua grabs Gon's hand, both ran onto getting ready to sing a song.

A-one, a-two, a-one, two, three, four
Uh, this song's about jellyfish
And their bellyfish
Ain't no foolyfish
I don't droolyfish
Goes like this:

Jelly, jelly, jellyfish
When you squeeze me, I go squish
Peanut butter jellyfish
Put me onto your sandwich

Said jelly, jelly, jellyfish
When you squeeze me, I go squish
'Cause I'm a jellyfish
I'm a jellyfish

My friends are fish and they go to school
They think I'm crazy and they think I'm cool
'Cause I'm a jellyfish
I'm a jellyfish

Jelly, jelly, jellyfish
When you squeeze me, I go squish
'Cause I'm a jellyfish
I'm a jellyfish

Got no eyes, I got no head
I've got no house, I got no bed
'Cause I'm a jellyfish
I'm a jellyfish
Jellyfish

Both of them sang the song, it wasn't a duet song but both managed to make it into one. They soon came back, Illumi smiled a bit enjoying the silly song. They began to talk a couple of the phantom troupe went up, Leorio and Kurapika even went.

Soon Machi got on stage, as she got ready to sing a song. Illumi was a bit interested, but soon found himself regretting it, as he heard the song.

We were both young when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts:
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air.

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns,
See you make your way through the crowd,
And say, "Hello."
Little did I know...

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you, "Please don't go."
And I said,

"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting. All there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess.
It's a love story. Baby, just say 'Yes'."

So, I sneak out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew.
So, close your eyes,
Escape this town for a little while.
Oh, oh.

'Cause you were Romeo. I was a scarlet letter.
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."
But you were everything to me.
I was begging you, "Please don't go!"
And I said,

"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting. All there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess.
It's a love story. Baby, just say 'Yes'.

Romeo, save me. They're trying to tell me how to feel.
This love is difficult but it's real.
Don't be afraid. We'll make it out of this mess.
It's a love story. Baby, just say 'Yes'."

Oh, oh, oh.

I got tired of waiting,
Wondering if you were ever coming around.
My faith in you was fading,
When I met you on the outskirts of town.
And I said,

"Romeo, save me. I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting for you, but you never come.
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think."
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said,

"Marry me, Juliet. You'll never have to be alone
I love you, and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad. Go pick out a white dress.
It's a love story. Baby, just say 'Yes'."

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

'Cause we were both young when I first saw you.

Everyone cheers, she walks over to Hisoka and share a kiss. Illumi was about ready to go home, " now ladies and gentlemen, we will be picking a random person in the crowd to come up and sing! " Spoke the dj.

" It better not be me " Illumi mumbles, as he spoke that the lights land on him. He cursed himself as the lights landed on him, he walked onto stage. He grabbed the microphone, he looked through the songs, he saw a familiar song so he choose it.

I was a liar
I gave in to the fire
I know I should've fought it
At least I'm being honest
Feel like a failure
'Cause I know that I failed you
I should've done you better
'Cause you don't want a liar

And I know, and I know, and I know
She gives you everything
But, boy, I couldn't give it to you
And I know, and I know, and I know
That you got everything
But I got nothing here without you

So one last time
I need to be the one who takes you home
One more time
I promise, after that, I'll let you go
Baby, I don't care if you got her in your heart
All I really care is you wake up in my arms
One last time
I need to be the one who takes you home

I don't deserve it
I know I don't deserve it
But stay with me a minute
I swear I'll make it worth it
Can't you forgive me?
At least just temporarily
I know that this is my fault
I should've been more careful

And I know, and I know, and I know
She gives you everything
But, boy, I couldn't give it to you
And I know, and I know, and I know
That you got everything
But I got nothing here without you, baby

So one last time
I need to be the one who takes you home
One more time
I promise, after that I'll let you go
Baby, I don't care if you got her in your heart
All I really care is you wake up in my arms
One last time
I need to be the one who takes you home (la li he)

I know I should've fought it
At least I'm being honest (yeah)
But stay with me a minute
I swear I'll make it worth it, babe
'Cause I don't wanna be without you

(Oh)
So one last time
I need to be the one who takes you home (takes you home, babe)
One more time
I promise, after that I'll let you go
Baby, I don't care if you got her in your heart (babe)
All I really care is you wake up in my arms (wake up in my arms)
One last time
I need to be the one who takes you home (yeah)

One last time
I need to be the one who takes you home

He sang putting his heart onto his, letting his emotions take over a bit. His voice was soothing, once done everyone was clapping, cheering for an encore, he was confused but decided to give them what they wanted.

He goes to choose another song, he looks at everyone, he looks at Hisoka for a split second.

I'm waitin' up, savin' all my precious time

Losin' light, I'm missin' my same old us
Before we learned our truth too late
Resigned to fate, fadin' away
So tell me, can you turn around?
I need someone to tear me down
Oh, tell me, can you turn around?
But either way

Hold me while you wait
I wish that I was good enough (hold me while you wait)
If only I could wake you up (hold me while you wait)
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)

Tell me more, tell me something I don't know
Could we come close to havin' it all?
If you're gonna waste my time
Let's waste it right

And hold me while you wait
I wish that I was good enough (hold me while you wait)
If only I could wake you up (hold me while you wait)
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)
I wish you'd cared a little more (hold me while you wait)
I wish you'd told me this before (hold me while you wait)
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)

This is you, this is me, this is all we need
Is it true? My faith is shaken, but I still believe
This is you, this is me, this is all we need
So won't you stay a while?

And hold me while you wait
I wish that I was good enough (hold me while you wait)
If only I could wake you up (hold me while you wait)
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)
I wish you'd cared a little more (hold me while you wait)
I wish you'd told me this before (hold me while you wait)
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)

Stay a while (hold me while you wait)
(My faith is shaken, but I still believe) stay a while
(Hold me while you wait)
My love, my love, my love (hold me while you wait)
Won't you stay a while?

Once he was finished, he bows and goes to sit down. Illumi was talking to the others, till they were announcing the winners, apparently they were a companion that night.

Third place had gone to some random stranger, second had gone to Hisoka, last and not least first place went to Illumi. He was surprised but went up stage, the prize was a two thousand check which he didn't care for.

They asked him to sing once more, so he decided to sing just one more time then he'll leave. He grabbed the mic and choose a song, that really fit his position right now.

Walking down 29th and Park
I saw you in another's arms
Only a month we've been apart
You look happier

Saw you walk inside a bar
He said something to make you laugh
I saw that both your smiles were twice as wide as ours
Yeah, you look happier, you do

Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you
But ain't nobody love you like I do
Promise that I will not take it personal, baby
If you're moving on with someone new

'Cause baby you look happier, you do
My friends told me one day I'll feel it too
And until then I'll smile to hide the truth
But I know I was happier with you

Sat on the corner of the room
Everything's reminding me of you
Nursing an empty bottle and telling myself you're happier
Aren't you?

Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you
But ain't nobody need you like I do
I know that there's others that deserve you
But my darling, I am still in love with you

But I guess you look happier, you do
My friends told me one day I'd feel it too
I could try to smile to hide the truth
I know I was happier with you

Baby, you look happier, you do
I knew one day you'd fall for someone new
But if breaks your heart like lovers do
Just know that I'll be waiting here for you

He found himself getting lost in the song, he didn't know why but as he sang he felt himself release his bottle up sadness that he's desperately been trying to push away. He decided one more song couldn't hurt, so he sang one more song.

I always knew that you'd come back to get me
And you always knew that it wouldn't be easy
To go back to the start to see where it all began
Or end up at the bottom to watch how it all ends

You tried to lie and say I was everything
I remember when I said "I'm nothing without you"
I'm nothing without you

Somehow I found a way to get lost in you
Let me inside
Let me get close to you
Change your mind
I'll get lost if you want me to
Somehow I found a way to get lost in you

You always thought that I left myself open
But you didn't know I was already broken
I told myself that it wouldn't be so bad
But pulling away it took everything I had

You tried to lie and say I was everything
I remember when I said "I'm nothing without you"
I'm nothing without you

Somehow I found a way to get lost in you
Let me inside
Let me get close to you
Change your mind
I'll get lost if you want me to
Somehow I found a way to get lost in you
In you

The pain of it all, the rise and the fall
I see it all in you
Now everyday I find myself say
"I want to get lost in you"
I'm nothing without you

Somehow I found a way to get lost in you
Let me inside
Let me get close to you
Change your mind
I'll get lost if you want me to
Somehow I found a way to get lost in you

A way to get lost in you (A way to get lost in you)

Once done he heads back to the table, he drinks the rest of his sake. " Hey I'm going to head home, I got stuff to do in the morning " he spoke to the four. " Oh, right, stay safe. See you tomorrow " Killua spoke.

" Yeah, don't stay out too late " he spoke putting down his part of the check, he get's up walking out the door. He calls for a cab waiting for it to come, he didn't notice someone walking up to him. " Hey " spoke a familiar voice, he jumps a bit.

He looks to his left and See's Hisoka, " jeez don't do that, you scared me " he spoke. " Sorry " Hisoka spoke chuckling a bit. " Right " Illumi spoke looking away, " nice voice by the way, I really enjoyed listening to it " he spoke.

' uh, thanks. You weren't too bad as well " he spoke, " really?, I thought I sucked ' the magician spoke. " Nah, if I some dumb bimbo. I would of fallen for you, by the way you sang " he spoke causing both of them to laugh.

" Oh please, that shit only happens in movies and shit " Hisoka spoke. " Yeah " a cab soon pulled up, " my ride here, uh. Well I'll see you later, you should head back in there, wouldn't want to worry Machi, would you? " He spoke.

" Right, I'll see you around " he spoke kinda disappointed, he gets in the cab. He looks at his disappearing figure, he let's out a sigh wondering what he did wrong.

Idk what I wrote I was listening to sad music mostly sad music and this popped up in my head. Tell me what you think, two new one shots are in the process. As always requests are open guys, so request anything I write basically anything just in incest and male pregnancy, unless I'm really close to me I might write it. Anyways I'm out this bitch, bye!
