December 18th-20th

AFTER THE WAR

Countless bodies were strewn across the battle field, enemies and allies alike. Only a few people still standing, searching the crowd for any "lucky" survivors. A mile away from where the bloodiest part of the war took place, a man lies dead. A metal suit of armor cracked to where you could see the face of Adam. Yes, the Earl of Millennium had fallen in the final battle.

A head of red stained-white hair pitifully crawled toward his fallen comrade and lover.

"K-anda!" He wheezed out, finally reaching the blue haired male, he collapsed over the nearly unconscious man.

"Moyashi." His hand rested in his snowy locks. Allen tried to respond to him, but choked on the blood and bile rising in his throat. Catching his breath, he laid next to his lover.

"I'm sorry I couldn't save everyone." His voice seemed broken and hopeless.

"Enough with that," he wheezed and attempted to catch his breath, "stupid hero complex. The Earl is dead, and the world is safe from the Noah's harmful ways. You did good Allen." Tears slid out of Allen's eyes. Compliments were rare from Kanda, and to think that was probably the last, meant a lot.

"Kanda..."

"What is it Allen?" His body convulsed for a moment before he was able to calm down and pull the younger boy closer.

"You called me 'Allen'." He smiled brightly at the stoic samurai whose eyes were becoming cloudy.

"Yeah think of it as a goodbye present." Unshed tears perked at Kanda's eyes unbeknownst to Allen.

"I love you, Kanda." He choked on his words.

"I love you too, Allen."

1 WEEK PRIOR

Allen lazily twirled Kanda's hair in his finger, while said male lay with his head in the younger males lap. Allen knew his hair was his weakness and used it against him as often as Kanda would allow him to. He planted a kiss on Kanda's hair causing Kanda's cheeks to take on a light pink tint.

"Baka Moyashi, do you even know what that means?" Kanda was taken aback by Allen's rare serious expression.

"Of course I do. In Japan if you really, really love someone kissing their hair is one way to show it."

"Something like that." Kanda mumbled before closing his eyes. They weren't really a couple for 'I love you's' and fluffy stuff. It was a rare occurrence to spend time like this: just enjoying the other's presence. They both cherished these times, whether Kanda will admit it or not.

Kanda's eyes became heavy as Allen massaged his scalp.

"You know, Kanda?" Allen paused. "We've been together for a while now; almost a year. Lavi didn't think we'd make it this far before beheading the other. I guess he was wrong."

"Of course he was Baka Moyashi." Kanda mumbled just on the brink of sleep.

"I'm really happy. Even when we fight." He paused once more and looked out the window smiling. "Kanda, I hope we can stay together for an even longer time. I want us to grow old together." Slightly embarrassed by his statement, he looked down at him. He giggled when he heard Kanda emitting light snores.

"Gosh Kanda, falling asleep while I profess my undying devotion to you is not cool." He kissed the crown of his head before rising from the bed careful not to wake the soundly sleeping samurai. "Goodnight, Kanda."

He made his way down the hall towards where he believed his bedroom to be. Instead he somehow found himself in front of Komuii's office. Confused he turned around to head back in the direction of the dorm floors. He heard something alarming.

"The Noah? Are you sure they would do something so bold this early?" Komuii's voice was muffled by the door making it hard for Allen to hear. He put his ear against the door.

"Yes, sir." Reever's voice sounded nervous and frightened. "He mailed a letter directly to the order with one of his level four AKUMA."

"Well read it already!" Komuii's voice had never sounded so serious and it somewhat frightened Allen.

"Y-yes sir.." He pulled out the perfectly crisped letter sealed with a a pumpkin seal. Reever opened the letter, his hands shaking all the while. "To The Black Order, The time has come for the main act to play. For I am the script writer and nothing will stop me from putting an end to this world. Be ready. We're coming. -Adam, The Millennium Earl" Though Allen couldn't see he could sense the tension in the room and could guess that both the supervisor and the head of the science division were white as a sheet of paper.

He back away from the door and tripped falling back. He loudly crashed into the wall behind him.

"What was that?" came both of the men's voices. Allen took off down the hall before either of them could discover his presence. He ran straight into his room and slammed it behind him. Sliding down the door he put his head in his hands. Every one of his friends popped into his mind. Their well being and safety was all he could think about. Their semi-peaceful times were soon coming to an end.

1 WEEK LATER

Kanda pulled Allen into his arms as the two of them were becoming weaker. Allen ran his fingers through the knotted up blue hair. Kanda leaned into this last resort of comfort. He nuzzled his nose into the pure white silky hair that he had come to love. He began to regret every fight they had ever had and any time he called him a disgrace for being cursed.

"I'm sorry, Allen." he said quietly.

"Hey now. If I can't wallow in my self loathe neither can you." Allen smiled up at him. He could feel his hands anymore. He couldn't move anymore as a matter of fact. Fear filled him. "K-kanda. I-i can't mo-ve." Tears formed in his eyes. As he stared up at him with a horrified expression. Kanda held Allen closer. Allen began to cry full out. "I don't wanna die yet Kanda, I just want-" He coughed and when his voice came back again it was much weaker. "All I want is to be with you." His voice faded as his eyes slowly lost what life was left in them. Kanda held Allen's limp body tightly in his arms.

The tears unshed now came to the surface and made themselves known to only the trees around them along with the two dead males. Kanda's grip loosened only slightly.

"You didn't let me finish idiot." He turned his head away from his deceased lover. "I'm sorry we couldn't grow old together."

He kissed the top of Allen's head as his vision slowly started fading.

"Goodnight, Allen."
