Author Notes:
I was reading through D. Gray-man fan fics and well the first one was a Yaoi Yullen and it had been written so well it convinced me that the couple could work and I fell in love. Love equals inspiration and since I've had some people telling me to turn these ideas into stories here are some bits and pieces I'm working on. This is called Ingredients and Scraps because the little bits of story can be used as part of a greater story or just loved on their own. So here are little pieces of scenes that I've thought of. All of them are set in an AU of a story that I'm working on (Title still pending). These are unbeta'd. As soon as I have more of the actual story written I will put it on ffn and have it properly beta'd. Future chapters on this will be drabbles and shorts. Plus my Yullen week for December will go here. Most of these will have Shonen- Ai or at least hints of it.
So yeah Disclaimer: I don't own -man if I did well it'd have more Yullen hints.

Omake: Ingredients and Scraps
I'm on the front line,
Don't worry I'll be fine,
The story is just beginning.
I say goodbye to my weakness,
So long to my regrets,
And now I know that I'm alive.

1. Of Groceries and Bean Sprouts.
"Bean sprouts?" was the question.
"Hmmm." Allen asked looking up from his half empty grocery bag. He was met with an incredulous look from both Lavi and Lenalee. Allen for the life of him couldn't tell you who just asked the question, he had been that out of it that the word barely registered. "Yep," He agreed that was a bag of bean sprouts.
"You bought bean sprouts?" Lenalee prodded. Obviously there was something she was wanting to get at but he couldn't really come up with anything that bean sprouts was suppose to signify right that moment.
"They're healthy." He replied, well he didn't really have a reason why he bought them. He was staring at them in the grocery store thinking about a certain long haired Japanese man and sudden he's at home with bean sprouts in the shopping bag.
"Yeah healthy." She exchanged a look with Lavi who was snickering away. "You don't have anything or one on your mind at this moment do you?" She asked.
"Yeah, Moyashi-chan, not thinking of anyone are you?" The emphasis on the nick name was suppose to signify something and Allen had a clue who they were referring to but he didn't really want to admit he was mooning over Kanda Yuu to them.
"Nope nothing on my mind," He answered snatching away the offending sprouts to put them away. When he caught himself going to the cabinet and finding the milk there he swore silently before putting them both in the fridge. Both Lavi and Lenalee were laughing at that.
"Yeah right, that nothing has you pretty distracted." Lavi laughed. The playful smirk on Lavi's face made Allen want to run. He was either going to tease Allen mercilessly over his crush on Kanda Yuu or he was up to something. It was always safer to go with option two especially when Lenalee had the same look on her face.
"Allen?"
"Yes Lenalee?" Allen was really debating on backing away slowly and making a run for it. How had he missed those Cheshire cat grins on Lavi and Lenalee when he was putting away the groceries? Oh yeah cause he was trying not to NOT think about Kanda -f'n- Yuu and all the wonderfull... , wait hold that thought...
"Want to come some where with me and Lavi?" she looked sweet but the voice of reason in the back of his mind kept saying 'Don't do it, it's a trap.' Of course Allen was too nice to say no without a valid reason. It didn't help that suddenly black Allen, the little devil that shares space in his mind with reason decided to tie reason and decision making up and kick them out the window leaving him a little dazed and transfixed on the object of his aforementioned desire. Kanda Yuu, just walked in ready to go. Lenalee didn't spare Kanda a glance before adding, "Him too."
"Sure." Allen agreed his eyes were still glazed over at the time. So expectantly he didn't realize what he had said or had happened until he was sitting in the back seat of Lavi's car with a grouchy Kanda glaring at him. "Crap, I knew it was a trap."
"Che, Idiot."

2. Conversations and interpretations
"Che"
Both of them had been sitting at their usual table strangely enjoying silence until the inspector had showed up. The inspector didn't say anything to them, just sat across the room and stared at them. It had been almost a half an hour since Lavi told them to wait for him. Half an hour of Llevier looking at them with a stare that promised nasty things. Kanda would have left if Allen hadn't insisted on waiting so Kanda just made his usual noises as Allen interpreted them and went with the flow. "No you probably shouldn't do that to the inspector."
This was rewarded by a grunt and rumble that almost could be taken as mumbling. "Probably not that either. You know it's a bad idea to start the evening off with that and honestly I don't really want to spend Saturday night in jail with you." He was rewarded a dirty scowl by his companion which was promptly ignored as he put another cheese covered fry in his mouth. (Why weren't those vacuumed down already?)
"Well I know I'd end up having to spend the night in jail cause well I'd try to stop you from bloodshed. We'd get in a fight and our poor, and I use the term loosely." He was using another fry to point to the grouchy one so this made the scowl he receive deepen, "Our poor victim will end up in the hospital from being an innocent bystander. Well innocent is also a good stretch of the word considering who we're talking about. And I will spend the rest of the evening trying to keep you from killing our cellmates, cause, and I don't know why, but I wouldn't feel right letting you stay there and catch worse charges by yourself."
This earned him a snort from the Japanese man that could be interpreted as a laugh, growl or both. It was a hard to define noise that was followed by another "Che" as Kanda just turned his head away.
"Yeah I agree." Allen said morosely putting his fry down. Anyone who knows him would probably believe the young man was sick at this point since there were still two fries and cheese residue on the plate in front of him, of course if they heard the previous 'conversation' then they probably thought he was mental or psychic. "Kanda how about this, we can spend Sunday night in jail. I don't want to go to school Monday and you don't have any classes till noon." Allen didn't pay attention to the look Kanda gave him at that, "I think Tiedoll or Komui could bail us out by then. Hell arraignment is on Monday we could get lucky and get out in time for your biology lab." Allen smirked at his companion.
Kanda just glared at him before rewarding him with a "Che." Allen just sighed at this. "Shut it Moyashi and eat your fries. My plan didn't involve going to jail." Kanda gave him a look that most people would thought was anger, irritation or just down right leave me the fuck alone. Those who actually could interpret Kanda's mannerism knew it was actually him suppressing a laugh at whatever he interpreted Allen's sigh to be. "I think if we did that you'd end up back at you're 'relatives'." Kanda replied with a wicked smirk.
Allen gave him a nasty glare that was accompanied with a grunt of his own. "You would and they'd most likely keep you in jail with a cellmate named bubba." Kanda added. Allen laughed at this and simply looked away from his companion. "And no I won't leave you with bubba." Kanda mumbled as if answering an unasked question. Allen didn't really get a chance to give Kanda the surprised look he was in the process of feeling.
Lavi in all of his boundless energy choose that moment to join the two at their table. "Yuu-chan! Moyashi-chan what's up?"
"Don't fuckin call me that baka." Kanda growled before he went on, "We were just debating the merits of the correctional system." Allen just laughed.
More Notes: So like I said unbeta'd so forgive me for mistakes I'll fix that later. The first one was inspired cause I was staring at beansprouts at the grocery store thinking about D. Gray-man and ended up buying them without realizing it. The second was inspired by a fanfic I read (I can't remember the name now sorry) where Lavi and Kanda were having a conversation about Allen where Kanda was grunting and making basically no words but Lavi could get complete thoughts out of it and replied to him.
