1:Order of Love
Chapter 1: A Bet of love
Lenalee, Lavi, Allen and Kanda had just returned from a mission at Istanbul. The mission was a success. They retrieved and safely returned the innocence at the headquarters without so much injuries.
'That travel overseas was the most embarrassing! Why can't they stop arguing? I mean they always talk about that the reason why they are being called the Cross brothers was because they are simply adopted by the same man and are NOT real brothers and that they're obviously better than the other, blablabla.' she thought irritably as she lazily laid down on her bed. She recalled her recent mission with the three 'not bloodly related brothers'. Even though those three can be a big headache, she still loves them.T hey would always be there for her.
"Yeah,those three can be so silly at times. But they are still soft at heart. They just don't wanna show it. Lavi is the one who would always make me laugh when nobody else could. Allen is the nicest and the most gentleman of them all. And Kanda, although he is a slob, he still has a soft spot inside him, and he would often show that side to me." she pondered as she slowly closed her eyes. Allowing sleep to take over her petite form. 'But for me, Lavi is the most special to me in a way that I don't know the right word to describe it .All I know is that I always want to be beside him and to make him happy like what he does to me. We both know that we're the best of friends but I think what I'm feeling is something more than that.' she thought with a small smile playing across her lips as she drifted into a deep sleep.
It was a bright and sunny morning at the Black Order's headquarters. The bright golden sun was shining proudly as it gives too much light and heat. Despite the hot atmosphere, it was still a rather peaceful morning for the exorcists.
"Good morning Lavi, Allen, Kanda!" Lenalee greeted her friends as she sat down on the table beside Lavi.
"Good morning too Lenalee!" said Allen.
"Mornin' Lee-lee!" Lavi mused.
" it down idiots!"Kanda greeted rather enthusiastically. Lenalee giggled as she started eating her food and chatting with her friends.
"Heh. Say Lee-lee, me and my brothers were planning to go to town tonight. D'you wanna come with us? You'll be bored here with no one to talk to since the others were still on missions and Yu's also coming with us." Lavi asked excitedly His lips forming a wide grin.
"Well, I would like to but I promised nii-san to help him compile the mission papers." Lenalee said as she smiled apologetically at them.
"Oww. That's too bad! Can't you just help him some other time?" Lavi's grin broke as he whined and looked at Lenalee with pleading eyes.
"Lavi, don't force her! She got her schedule fixed up for today and you should not ruin it. You should know when to beg for something." Allen angrily lectured his brother. He too wants Lenalee to be with them but he knows better than drag her out of her plans. So he's bringing out the anger at poor Lavi.
"Fine. Ya don't have to bring it out on me Allen." Lavi said as he gave Allen a knowing look.
"cough, cough!gulp, gulp, gulp..What are you talking about?" Allen choked his own food when he saw Lavi's smirk.
"That's it!" Kanda banged the table with his closed fist as he glared at his two companions with murder in his eyes."You two should better shut the hell up or you would be put literally to hell!" Both of them sat quietly but not without mouthing curses at Kanda who gladly returned the honor by shooting deadly glares at the two to shut them out.
"Sorry. I'll make it up to you guys next time."Lenalee apologized.
Pale moonlight drops at the clear surface of the wide ocean. Illuminating the small town as the crashing water below reflects the gift from the dark heavens, giving the place a romantic atmosphere. The town is still lively and crowded at night as salesmen were calling for more customers as they were near to closing time. Three attractive young men was currently at a bar and making commotions..The three was already known by their names because of their foster father's fame. They still kept their real surnames since they often refuse to be known as blood related brothers. The Cross brothers had been recently talking and laughing with extra loud voices, like they were conversing with someone that was a couple of kilometers away.
Lavi,Allen and Kanda was at the middle of a drinking contest. All of them were obviously drunk and out of their minds but neither of them would accept it as their pride were at stake. The bar's supply of alcohol almost ran out because of their 'little competition of manliness'.
"Hehehe. Allen, you and Yu-chan are so much alike! Maybe you two are- hic!..best friends in an alternate time line!" Lavi grinned teasingly as he nudged his brothers at their side. Earning him a strong smack at the head courtesy of both Allen and Kanda.
"Shut your rabbitic mouth or I'll do it for you the hard way." Kanda threatened. His gaze piercing through Lavi's soul.
"Yeah. That is, if you still value your- hic!..life. And who would like to be- hic, best friends with that horrible looking samurai wanna be." Allen said as he looked disgustingly at his blue haired brother. His face red from so much drinking.
"Che! Speak for yourself beansprout! There are obviously two wrong points in your poor excuse of an insult. First, I am not a samurai wanna be, cause I'm already a wanna-be-human-plant! Second, who would want to be with someone who pretends to be strong but can't take so much alcohol and do so many fucking girlish hiccups in a minute?" Kanda stated. His eyebrows furrowing deeper as he did so. He is obviously much more nicer and talkative when he's drunk. Yes, he is indeed nicer, cause if Allen had said that when they are in their proper way of thinking, Kanda could've slashed his head off without second thoughts.
"Whatever STUPID! YU is so stupid! hic!"
"Hmph." Kanda gulped down another glass of gin.
"Hey, stupid brothers. May I ask why neither of ya still don't have any girl? Don't tell me you guys are gay?" Lavi asked. He had recently gulped down five more glasses of his gin and was taking his drunkiness to the next level.
"Why? Do you? And don't you call me stupid. You can call that jerk the stupid one a million times though. You could have said it this way: "Hey, my blue haired stupid brother and my good looking and smart one, and so on and so forth." hic! Stupid hiccups! Back to the topic, I personally think, using my genious brain, that girls are not really necessary for living. WE GUYS RULE!" Allen stood up shouting. His arms raised with a bottle of alcohol on his right.
"Yeah right, now sit properly my good looking and smart but so fuckingly stupid jerk brother! Of course they're necessary JERK! Girls makes life happier and full of adventures! And for ya to know, I have a bunch waitin' for me to at least look at them."
"So, what exactly are you implying you rabbit womanizer?" Kanda glared at Lavi.
"What else? Can't believe you're as stupid as Allen, Yu. What I'm saying is we make a bet." Lavi replied grinning mischievously.
"Say it straight out already!" Allen yelled impatiently.
"Fine you impatient beansprout. The bet is, WE would make the prettiest girl in the Order fall in love with one of us. The first who did it will be obviously the damn winner."
"I can't believe you just planned another master plan rabbit. Your silly games always turn out perfectly without any problem. Count me in." Kanda sarcastically rolled his eyes.
"I think the prize would change your mind Yu. You wanna know what it is?"
"What?" He asked annoyed. The persuading of Lavi is annoying enough, but for him to lean in so close to his face was more than annoying.
"Well I guess I shouldn't tell you cause you're backing out anyway. Why? Too afraid of a little friendly bet eh brother?" Lavi moved away crossing his arms with a daring look on his face. He was too sure that Kanda would definitely join in now.
"Fine .I'm in. Now tell me." Lavi smirked evilly.
"The prize is simple..The winner gets a favor from each of the losers. And the losers should do it if they had any pride and dignity left." Lavi could only smirk smugly at his two brothers. He looks so confident that he'll win this game. After all, he's the real playboy among them. Kanda instantly had an uneasy expression on his face when he heard the prize at stake. He might not directly admit it, but his red haired brother was the certified girls' man. As for the hyper drunk mode Allen, he went exaggerated and jumped up excitedly.
"Woohoo! Yeah! A bet! I'll make sure I win so prepare yourselves for what I may ask brothers! Count me in! Count me in! I wanna be in!"Allen waved his hand hyperly in the air like he was a student raising his hand excitedly for he knows the answer.
"Okay alright, alright! Of course you're going to be in! Stop being so hyper! Jeez, effects of alcohol on you really turns you to your opposite." Lavi said as he put his hands in front of him in an attempt to calm down Allen.
"Yes! After so many hardships I'm finally counted in! This is the happiest moment of my-..ahh,... minute!" Lavi sighed in exasperation. He already memorized his brothers' stage of being drunk.
For Kanda:
Stage 1)He would become much more boastful
Stage 2)Would be a complete slob.
Stage 3)Become much more nicer and patient than usual
Stage 4)Be daring and bravely on going; out of place
Stage 5)Extremely furious about anything about nothing and would often start a fight
For Allen:
Stage 1)Do so many hiccups
Stage 2)Still do hiccups but becomes ignorant, proud and brave
Stage 3)Hyper mode
Stage 4)Becomes very much honest and an open book
Stage 5)Emotional
As for him:
Stage 1)Flirt
Stage 2)Lame jokes
Stage 3)Likes doing some pranks, tricks and dares
Stage 4)Would blurt out overly smart facts that he learned from staying so much at the library
Stage 5)Become over protective of someone important or become crazy
He sighed again. Grabbing some more bottle of gin, he drunk one all at once. Bringing the bottle down with a loud thud. "You know what guys? I think we need to make a contract about our little agreement."
"Why do we need that?" Kanda asked worried.
"So that we'll have a solid proof about it. We'll have to sign it too to make it official. What'd you say?"All of them decided to write down the contract and sign on it. Lavi wrote three copies of it using the pen he always brought with him and papers that the bartender offered..or was forced to give them. After signing on each copy, he handed Allen and Kanda one to each of them. They made a handshake and promised as real men to comply and not back out of the bet with no acceptable reason. The three went back to the headquarters singing like crazy with their contract of bet in their hands. Neither of them aware of what they just put themselves into.
