The Devil beside me
A/N: Hello! This is a very rare occasion because I am writing an AU! Yay~ XD. Most of you know this already, but I down to earth hate AU's. However; since my best friend requested so, I shall! And sorry for acting very much like a hypocrite (I just said I hate AU's and yet I'm writing one).
Major Pairings: Kanda/Allen, Tyki/Lavi.
Warning: yaoi/slash, lemon, teacher-student relationships, cursing.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of Hoshino's works, characters, props, etc.-sigh-
I'm just like any other boy. Studying in school, going through everyday routines, doing my homework, fantasizing about my crush, stuff like that. But then one day changed everything. For the devil appeared and ruined everything. I could never imagine his tactics to be so evil, so cruel so… inhumane! And suddenly one day, he sent me to hell.
Chapter 1, Confession.
She's coming… Just walk up to her casually and then greet her and tell her how you feel.
But what if she rejects me?
No, no, no! I have to tell her! It's already the third year and I still haven't told her!
But I don't want her to reject me…
No! I have to think positive. She might have the same feelings for me.
She's almost here. I have to tell her!
"Umm… I like you! Please go out with me!"
……….
"Hah?"
15 year old teenager, Allen Walker had always thought life would run smoothly as long as you do the right thing but apparently today was not the case. For the first time in his life, he experienced a problem, and to him, it was a big one. Why? Because as he stood there, his body bent down, his face burning from the words his finally said after three years of hesitation, he realized that something was wrong. Very wrong.
He just confessed to a different person.
To make it worse, a guy.
"What's this? A confession from the albino? I thought you had a thing for the lovely Ms. Lee? I never knew you were gay."
Worst. Absolutely the worst.
"N-no! Y-y-y-you got this all wrong! I was trying to confess to Lenalee, n-not you!" the younger boy stammered, hoping that he would believe him.
Like he would.
The tall man pulled up a devious smirk and continued, "But Ms. Lee is right over there," pointing his finger at the staircase. "What, you're going to shout?"
If there ever was a day that he wished the day would never come, it was today. The prince of the school Kanda Yuu was not a person to mess around with. Allen didn't know much about Kanda except that he was a descendant of a very rich and prestigious family. Also, he was quite surprised what Kanda was doing at the second floor of the school building. Kanda was a senior student while Allen was a junior; it got him curious on what he was up to.
Allen quickly shot his head towards the direction of new voices. He heard two giggling girls whispering (well, apparently talking despite them covering their mouths and acting as if they were discussing privately) about Kanda and how lucky Allen was to speak to him so casually. Allen could never understand Kanda for being such a popular guy. He never does anything with intention when it comes to girls, yet almost every girl in the student body seems to be drooling all over him. He did have good looks for a person who grew his hair so long that it looked feminine but he managed to pull it off and look manly at the same time.
The thing Allen couldn't understand most with this guy was his attitude. From what he heard, Kanda was the ultimate devil. Cutting classes, gambling, going out at clubs late at night, doesn't study and yet, despite all the dangers and consequences of it, he survived it all.
So what made him famous was because of his looks, money and playing the 'bad boy' personality? Allen could never look up to this man. He didn't see anything good about it.
And now he was going to ruin everything for him.
Fearing that Kanda would continue until Allen would lose it, he stumbled back and without second thought, he sprinted as far away from the prince, a little hope deep down in his chest that Kanda wouldn't bother about the whole thing.
Just let me crawl in a hole and die.

"Allen! Why did you confess to Yuu?"
"It was a mistake!" Allen interrupted his best friend. "I wanted to confess to Lenalee but I didn't know why I ended up confessing to Kanda! It was an accident."
At a time like this, the only trustworthy person Allen could talk to was Lavi, his forever best friend and guardian angel. When things seem all lost and everybody just waits for time to end, Lavi would change the impossible to possible. He was like a miracle angel that God had sent down to guide Allen so he wouldn't fall in the wrong path.
Allen could also say that Lavi was a true friend. There were times when he had to choose friend or family and he chose Allen. When Allen needed someone to tell about his deepest and most secretive past, Lavi would sit down and listen intently and then he would swear that he wouldn't tell a soul.
This is what Allen thought should be the real prince. He, unlike Kanda, had an existing heart and yet he had no money, no high position or anything that Kanda had. To Allen, Lavi was quite an attractive guy, regardless of his damaged right eye. He had fiery copper hair, a tall and toned figure and a very unique facial structure, just why couldn't people see that?
The one thing that Allen could never forget about Lavi was when he purposely failed all tests just so he could stay back with Allen. A normal friend would've never done that, even if it meant less study and more fun.
Lavi sighed, placing down his pencil so he could stretch his arms out. "Well, either way you should talk to Yuu and try to work things out."
"That's what I was trying to do…"
"Alright everyone, please take your seats now, class is starting," The teacher called out to the class as he walked in the classroom.
And let the cycle start over.
Again.
"Good morning sensei!" Lavi greeted enthusiastically, running up to him so he could help the teacher with his books.
"Good morning Lavi, you seem to always be cheerful," The tall teacher commented.
This was the one thing that Allen took in mind that the reason why he wasn't popular was possibly because of his taste in gender. He preferred guys and worse, older guys. Allen didn't find it wrong to have a liking towards men, he just found it awkward.
Allen slumped over his table, discreetly grabbing Lavi's iPod so he could zone out of the lesson with some music. The other thing that bothered Allen about Lavi's preference was out of all the teachers in the entire faculty, he chose Tyki Mikk the literature teacher. Although Tyki hadn't done anything wrong to Allen, he never liked the teacher. Allen had an invisible paper in his head where he wrote down people in two categories. One was the people like Kanda and the other was the people like Lavi. He placed Tyki in the Kanda category the moment he started to act sexy so he would have girls clinging onto him.
"That's enough Lavi. Thank you for the help," Tyki said, after Lavi fixed his text book the eighth time just so that they would align in place.
Lavi bowed and hastily returned back to seat.
"Could you stop doing that every single day? He's going to get annoyed with you."
"… Lavi?"
"It's so obvious why they call you the Noah of Pleasure," Lavi muttered in a mesmerized tone as he stared dreamily at the teacher starting his lesson.
Allen had given up on having a conversation with him since all he would do was drool over Tyki's ass waving around as he wrote on the board. Instead Allen thought of ways on how to fix everything with Kanda, about the whole confession thing, but no matter what he tried to come up with, it seemed that everything would fall apart.
He sighed and decided to just think of Lenalee to make the time pass by. Everyday it always occurred to Allen on why he liked Lenalee. She didn't have an amazing appearance, but it was definitely better than an average person. The only thing about her that touched Allen's heart was her incredible emotional strength. Years ago, Lenalee was separated from her only left relative, her brother and she lived alone for a very long time until finally she was reunited with him again and yet, she stands everyday with that scar freshly open and still has a happy smile on her face. Unlike Allen, he always relied on his dead relative's words;
Just keep moving forward… Always the same.
"And that ends our lesson today, please study pages 236 to 258."
Lavi finally left his gaze from Tyki when he had left the room and turned to face Allen. His head was dug into his arms so that it looked like a ball of white wool laid peacefully. Lavi took the initiative to wake him up so he wouldn't have to skip his free time and end up with no food when classes started again. He rose from his chair and took off the earphones from Allen's ear and softly patted him. Allen shifted his body a little at first but then he sat up, his eyes slightly red from the short nap. He rubbed his eyes and slowly stood up, leaning on Lavi so he could go back to sleep.
"Come on Allen, we have two free periods; let's not waste any time of it!" Lavi said, grabbing Allen's arm and ran at the direction heading towards the cafeteria.
Allen constantly tripped on his shoes but never fell because Lavi had Allen's arm wrapped tightly around his own. He had to pinch Lavi on the arm so he would stop running because Allen was unexpectedly exhausted.
"You should just say so, no need to do anything physical," Lavi complained.
Allen ignored his comment and drew his attention away from Lavi but to the crowd that was building up quite hastily.
"Wonder what that is," Lavi said; tip-toeing so he could see what was the commotion all about.
Allen immediately spotted Lenalee in the crowd. To Allen, she stood out so much like an angel surrounded by clouds because all he could see was a blur and only she was as clear as a crystal.
Allen neared towards her so he could greet her a good morning, but her attention was attached on the bulletin board that apparently was the reason of the commotion.
He pushed his way through the cramped up students so he could see what the contents were. The color on Allen's face drained as his eyes scanned the large bold letters that stood out entirely.
Newest Scoop! Allen Walker confessed his love to the prince of the school Kanda! Who would've known that Mr. Walker's preference are guys?
Oh. My. God.
Sorry for the short chapter, but let's end there for now. Please don't virtually shoot me for the LenaAllen but I promise you it's Yullen!
NOTE: If you had read this earlier, you would've noticed that the 1st chapter has been edited. I re-wrote the entire chapter from 1st person to 3rd person since this is my best technique of writing. I wanted to try out 1st person but I guess that was a fail.
Sorry if this is crappy. Like I said, I'm not too fond of AU's so I can't write well.
Please give your suggestions for what should happen in the future!
Read and Review!
