Confession: Part 1

It was a normal day at the Black Order Headquarters; Kanda was being a grump, Maranda was fretting about, Lavi was goofing off; ok, as normal as the Black Order can get. Allen Walker was just relaxing in his room, lying on his bed with his boots off and his white hair in disarray. On first glance, it would look like he was asleep, but he was anything but asleep; in fact, he was thinking, about Lenalee. For several months, he couldn't get the Chinese exorcist out of his mind. During meals, during missions, even when he and Kanda were trying to kill each other, she was in his thoughts. And more recently, he had been having strange feelings around her. Like trying to keep her safe whenever they went on missions together, or like this morning when Lavi was being the obnoxious person he his, the urge to kill him when he came too close to her.

I don't understand it, why do I feel like this. Lenalee is my friend…my very good friend. A faint red flush was gathering on Allen's face.

I felt like this when Mana was still alive, but this time it's different. Like I don't want anyone else to be near her. I don't understand it. Allen sat up, trying to think more clearly. However, Lenalee was still on his mind.

Lenalee is such a great person; she helps everyone she can in the Order. She even saved me from Kanda when I first came here. And she is a great fighter; I wouldn't have been able to beat that level four akuma without her help. She's really pretty, even with her short hair, and she looks so soft…so beautiful. The white-haired exorcist flushed bright crimson at that thought. Allen shook his head rapidly, like a dog trying to rid it's ears of water. He felt a little embarrassed.

It feels like I want Lenalee; have her all to myself. No Komui, or Lavi or Kanda to share. Allen clutched his chest, it felt hallow, like something was missing.

I've had this feeling after Mana died, and I've been having it whenever Lenalee wasn't around or ignoring me. I hate this feeling, and she gets rid of it. Allen then pulled on his boots quickly, and left his room as fast as he could.

I've got to find Lenalee.

Over in the Science Department, Lenalee was making her usual rounds with the elixir of life, her specialty coffee. Making sure her brother and the other members of the Science Department were supplied with their energy supply was a good way for her to regain the strength in her legs.

I wonder how Allen is doing… Her face took on a slight flush as she thought of the white-haired exorcist.

He's always been so polite and helpful around headquarters. Allen has helped us all so much; he saved Lavi, Krowly, Kanda, Chaoji and me on the Ark; and he even captured the ark and made it work in favor of the Order. He also is so nice…

"Lenalee, Lenalee!!" The dark-haired exorcist's train of thought was interrupted by her older brother, running as fast as he could in her direction. The scientist managed to come to a quick stop; his beret flying off his head and his glasses almost flying off his head. Lenalee just smiled a bit, she was used to her brother's erratic behavior by now.

"What is it brother?" Komui picked up his beret, straitened up, and straitened his glasses.

"Well, all of us in the Science Department have decided that you deserve a day off Lenalee." To say Lenalee was surprised would be a very good description. Of course, she had been taking care of the Science Department for a while now, so she was worried about them.

"Is it really alright?" Her brother waved his hand in a shooing manner.

"Sure, take some time for yourself Lenalee. We can survive for a few hours." With a smile, Lenalee handed her brother her coffee tray, thanked him, and ran off, all in the span of about ten seconds. It took that much time for Komui to add on.

"Just stay pure!! Don't let any of the others get to you. And don't get married Lenalee!! Or tell me before you do!" Yeah, safe to say she didn't hear that.
