Prologue
She smiled lightly as she greeted the finders, the finders swooned as the girl walked by with the tray, she was innocent yet beautiful at her young age. Her long dazzling green hair swung in the air as she walked held into the usual ponytails that given off the innocent look. She turned the corner ahead as she headed to her brother's office.
She opened the door spotting the others she had called her friends, she grinned at the sight of the talented blue haired swordsman and the white haired boy argue, and had seen the laughter from the brown haired women, Miranda alongside of Marie. Of course she couldn't forget the Lavi, Bookman Jr, his bright ginger hair, and the dark green eyes of his.
"Oh, Lenalee." She heard his playful voice reach her ears, she turned to him as she placed the tray on to her brother's desk, sidestepping him as he thrown himself at her.
"Lavi. What are you guys doing here?" She remained calm as she lightly rubbed her temples, for some strange reason she felt like today wasn't going to be her lucky day.
"I actually have no idea, the panda sa-" He was sharply cut off as Bookman gave him a hard delivering blow to the back of his neck, Lenalee let out a laugh as she watched Lavi try to recover from the hit.
"Don't call me that." He stated at he glanced at Lavi, he gracefully accepted the tea Lenalee had made for him with replying in a short thanks he gave to Lenalee.
"Bookman, do you know why we were called here?" With his legs, crossed he gave the young girl a glance to her brother behind the stacks of documents settling on his desk. "A meeting of some sort." She tilted her head, nodding to him.
"I wouldn't be surprised if this was about the Akuma appearances around the location we were supposedly rumored for Cross Marian." Lavi frowned resting his chin on to his hand, he glanced to Lenalee yet again.
He watched her body moved slightly deemed from being interested in the topic, he loved the way she would smile or play with the tips of her fingers behind her back, he sighed mentally, she was beautiful, and with her kind personality and strength he found her more forbiddingly attractive.
Somehow he could smell the scent of her shampoo she used, it smelled exactly like cherry blossoms, a relaxing feeling crowded his stomach, his wandering eyes looked at her exposed skin, especially her legs, thick and pale, he was sure after noticing he loved Lenalee legs he had a fetish, well a leg fetish.
I mean the guy was young and was still developing, at least that was his excuse, still at night he wake up to his wet boxers from having a exotic dream about Lenalee. He had secret desires to ravish her secretly but of course that would never be possible, because there was no way Lenalee could feel the mutual way about him, yet Bookman wouldn't allow it.
Suddenly the door had opened and had slammed with a loud slam, all eyes had turned to the door, Lenalee felt her body become stiff like a rock, as she made contact with the eyes she had come to hate.
"I see you have all gather here quickly." The deep musky voice spoke, as he took steps forward before sitting on the couch his eyes glued to Lenalee, her skin had felt like it was going to jump off her body, she couldn't control the shaking of her fingers.
Suddenly she was glad she held the metal tray in her hand, she held it tightly as she reminded herself of the emotions she had previously felt from this man, anger, Lavi watched as her shaking skin went stiff and as she nearly destroyed the metal tray in her hands.
His eyes nearly popped out his head as he seen her strength, he had thought most of it was in her legs. He watched her calmly as she sat the furthest away next to Kanda, he couldn't hint the jealousy he felt for Kanda, but he know the reason for that.
"Glad to see your doing well, Komui." Inspector Lvellie spoke, his fingers entwined together as he watched the green haired exorcist. Komui hadn't replied but given a nod.
"So shall I discuss what I have called you here for." He narrowed his eyes at Lenalee, she shifted in her chair, Kanda beside her peeked through one of his eyes seeing her reaction. He remained quiet, until he realized it continued for several moments more.
"Can you not sit still." He spoke, his voice deep as he kept his eyes closed, Lenalee sighed lowly to herself, "his eyes are glaring at me uncomfortably." He grumbled.
"I am sure you have heard of the situation of Akuma appearing in one location mostly, we are quite sure it isn't innocence but somehow people thought to have seen Cross Marian around that area." He took a deep breath glancing at Bookman.
"With the shortage of exorcists as it is, I decided for a exorcist to go to the location themselves." Komui hands slammed on the desk loudly, causing everyone to look at the sister complex with wide eyes.
The exorcists had heard a little detail about the Akuma that were around that area, it ranged from Level 1's to Level 3's and could be possible for a Level 4 to be there. Sending one person was as good as suicide, it was a terrible fate to that person.
Lavi breathed out, Bookman beside him shifted at the Inspector, he cautiously watched the scene in front them unfold. His lips sealed as he rested his hands in his lap, he was here to record history not to interfere with it.
"A single exorcist is crazy, we haven't even covered the area to determined what type of Akuma there are." Komui glared at the man in front of him, Lenalee gulped, it was possible the people in this room could be one of the people being sent to this dangerous location, one of her friends. . . .Or even herself.
"The finders mapped that area enough, that minimal area should be enough." The Inspector claimed, that was when she looked up she found the dark eyes that haunted her. She gulped as he let a grin set his features.
"You have no power over my decisions, Komui. With the exorcist going any Akuma that comes in their way has to be cut down, after all that is what a exorcist job is." Allen glanced at Link, hoping he would say something to convince his superior after all sending one person. . . .Was terrible.
"So I decided." The Inspector closed his eyes for a moment, Kanda opened his eyes now, understanding why Lenalee disliked the man now.
"Lenalee Lee." She nearly jumped off of her seat, all eyes were sent to her, Komui glared at him, hoping this darned Inspector wouldn't say it was her going.
"You would be going on this mission." Silence crowded the area, she felt her heart tighten and her words not form, all she did was look at her hands in her lap.
"You have to be kidding me." Kanda exclaimed not caring anymore, he stood up glaring at the man that sat perfectly fine in seat. Allen and Lavi jumped up voices from them loud and clear. Miranda glanced at Lenalee her fingers shaking as she thought of the young girl.
"No." Komui spoke, he was in front of the Inspector now, his arms itching to hit him in the face. The Inspector glanced up with a sly smile, "I believe I have the order from the Central." Link suddenly handed him a paper.
Komui grabbed it nearly ripping it, ". . ." Silenced endowed the him, there was nothing he could do for Lenalee now.
"Lenalee Lee, tomorrow is when you will depart on your mission." He walked out the room slamming it, the rest of the science department who had stood outside the door holding the papers for Komui had heard everything.
"Lenalee." Johnny sobbed, Reever clenched the papers tightly nearly ripping them. This wasn't right at all.
Lenalee hadn't said anything for the past minutes, all she did was get up and made her way towards the door, she opened it quietly, though her bangs covered her eyes, the science department stood in front the door, seeing the usual happy Lenalee filled with no emotion.
Reever gulped, Lenalee would greet them and laugh around them. Except this time was different, all they had seen was coldness, she glanced their way before walking down the hall to her room.
She sat in her room, slumping on to her bed frame. She raked a hand through her loosened hair, "what am I doing?" She softly spoke to herself, outside her window she spotted the birds happily chirping.
"Just another mission." Her words meant nothing in particular but seamless thoughts that she had. Hearing her stomach growl she got up slowly, "it's better this way. I wouldn't want anyone else getting hurt." She nodded to herself, she reminded herself that she was strong, she learned a few new moves and happy she improved a bit more.
"I will be back from that mission, nothing to worry about." She claimed lowly as her hand held on to her door knob she clenched under her hand. Suddenly she thought of Lavi, she held her lips together.
His large grin and the fiery red hair of his and that sparkling green eye of his, why was she thinking of him? Out of everyone?
She laughed to herself out of pity, she liked him. Who was she kidding, she knew from the beginning she liked him, but there was no possible way he would feel the same, none, after all he was a Bookman.
Breathing out to herself, she held her emotions in, plastering a smile on her face as she opened the door making her way to the hall.
Her head had hurt earlier and had decided to let her long hair out of her ponytails, she held her hands behind her back. The moment she made her way to Jerry he grinned happily at her and spoke with a cheerful voice.
"Oh my Lenalee, you're here so late, I suppose the usual?" He asked, she gave him a nod. Once he had finished her order she sat down at one of the tables, leaning her cheek on her hand, poking her food finding the visuals quite interesting.
Suddenly she heard the sound of trays being placed on the table as her, she looked up to find two people, finders, they both sat in front of her.
"Hello, Miss Lenalee." One finder spoke, with dark brown hair and a smile. "Oh-Hello." She greeted them with a smile.
"I am Daniel and this is Leo, were are going to be accompanying you tomorrow for your mission." She titled her head taking a bit of her food. "Oh is that so, I hope we get along." She spoke.
Leo quietly examined her not saying anything, he ate as the two other people had chattered between themselves, he couldn't help but think all they were was another finder, when the mission is over she'll forget about them.
"Leo. What about you?" He was brought out his thoughts once he heard his name called, he glanced up to see the Chinese girl smiling at him. "Huh?" He let out, confused on what she said to him.
She giggled at him, he blushed as he looked at her reaction, "I asked you what your favorite thing to do is?" He raised at eyebrow at his friend, seeing as he nodded for him to talk. He looked down to his fork twiddling with it, "reading." Her eyes widened a bit but she smiled.
"Sorry, he's a little shy." Daniel rubbed the back of his neck, Leo wasn't shy, it was his first time talking to a girl, and a a pretty one too.
"Is that so?" She tilted her head, examining the two finders, she sought them to be quite different. Leo was more reserved and quiet while Daniel was energetic, almost like someone she knew well.
After talking with the finders, Lenalee made her way back to her room, her steps slow her heels making a click as she moved to her room. When she looked up she spotted the one guy that made her giggle in all sorts, or had always turned her frown upside down.
"Lavi." She spoke his name lowly, he looked up bouncing off the wall. "Oh, hey Lenalee." He grinned rubbing the back of his neck, this was the time, no more play time he thought to himself.
He was slightly shocked when he had seen her long hair loosened, it was long and silky he bit the corner of his lip wanting to touch it, or rake his hands through it.
"Something wrong." She was now in front of him, he looked down to her, taking a deep breath, her full lips looked kissable, the long hair framing her heart-shaped face, and those violet eyes of her's felt as if it was piercing him through his soul.
He bit back his hidden desires too suddenly claim her, but then again as he looked at her face he hadn't seen any hint of fear at all. He felt his expression, she truly is a strong women.
"Oh, I was wondering how your doing?" He mustered up the strength to ask. She laughed lightly forcing a smile on her lips, "I am fine. Would you like to come in?" She asked. He breathed out nodding happily and he made his way in.
He held his breath, Lenalee closed the door, she breathed out, who knows what might happen on this mission. . . .She might die? So should she tell Lavi she loved him?
The moment she turned around, she Lavi's lips touch her's. She melted right there, his lips soft and gentle, showing passion he had. The two kissed gently with one another, clinging to each other.
Lenalee pulled away softly, "Lavi." She said his name breathlessly. He grinned putting his forehead to her's, a thumb stroking her soft pale skin. "Lenalee." He replied, his hands wrapped around her waist holding her to him, she hadn't realized it but her arms guided themselves around her neck.
"I want to say this. So just listen for now, okay?" She kept her mouth shut, as the red haired boy slightly pulled away but kept hold on her. His hands remained on her curves as she loosened her arms around his neck but hadn't pulled away.
"I just want to say, I-I-I really like you." He shook his head, "no I love you." He spoke. Lenalee felt her heart pound in her chest, t-the guy she liked was confessing his feelings for her.
"B-but you're a Bookman." Her voice was a whisper, she waited for this moment the longest but it seemed they couldn't be together, he was a Bookman and couldn't have her because of his priorities.
"So?" He asked leaning forward again, his breath touching her lips, he thumb running over her lips he had just kissed. "L-Lavi, but B-Bookman won't allow it." He let out a laugh, brushing her lips with his, making her legs wobble.
"As if I care about that." He spoke, his mouth gently touching her neck, assaulting it with kisses that felt like feathers brushing against her skin. She let out a small moan tightening her grip around Lavi's neck.
"Lenalee what do you feel about me?" He spoke lightly, their noses touching, she blushed heavily as she touched his cheek, "I love you." They touched lips again, this time it was fiery with passion.
There lips moved in sync as if dancing together, the moment they pulled away they let out a laugh realizing both of them were breathless. "You should get back to your room, Bookman might notice your gone." Lavi gave a sly smile.
"He's out on a mission, so that means I get to stay with you tonight." He cheered, Lenalee laughed as he jumped on to her bed, only in a pair of dark pants and a loose green shirt. She smiled at him.
"Come on, let's sleep together." At this point she hadn't cared if Komui came in, she wanted to smile the rest of the night with him by her side. That was all she needed.
She rested her head on his chest, smiling like a fool. She wrapped her arm around his torso, feeling the clench of his muscles because of his movement. "What are you smiling about?" He spoke propping his elbow up, looking at her violet eyes.
"You." Lavi was taken back, smiling with a light blush, he brushed a strand of hair from her eyes. "Lenalee will you be my girlfriend?" She let out a laugh that made his insides tickle.
"I thought that was obvious." He chuckled himself, pulling her closer to him, he gently kissed her hair smelling cherry blossoms. "Right. So it's official we are dating." He grinned to himself, pulling her closer.
"I love you Lenalee." She heard his voice say as she was evaded by the darkness.
