Chapter 2: What He Does at Night
Lenalee screamed because she was in the same bed showing some of her flawless skin to the shirtless boy. She covered her body with his blanket as she slapped the innocent white-haired boy. Her scream echoed throughout their neighborhood which alerted Komui who just got home from work. Recognizing his sister's voice, Komui ran to the next house bring a baseball in one of his hands. God, please save Allen.
"LENALEE! I'M COMING!" Komui shouted as he ran upstairs to save his sister. Then, he notices Allen, who walks outside of his room because of the things Lenalee throws at him, without his shirt on so he suddenly jumps into conclusion. "ALLEN! HOW DARE YOU RAPE MY INNOCENT LENALEE?"
"Eh? Komui-san!" Allen said as he dodged the baseball bat. "You... Don't... Under... Stand!"
"I NEVER KNEW YOU'RE A PERVERT, YOU... YOU... OCTOPUS!" Komui roared as he continues swinging and missing a hit on Allen Walker. "HOW CAN YOU BRING MY PURE LENALEE IN YOUR OWN HOUSE AND TAINT HER!"
"Nii-san!" Lenalee said coming out of the room with her clothes on. "Did you say that this is his house?"
Komui stops his outrage at the poor Allen Walker. "Ye-yes. Why?"
"Nii-san!" Lenalee's brows twitched upon learning her mistake. "Kyaaaaa!"
Lenalee leaped and kicked her brother's chin causing him to fall down to the first floor. She couldn't stop her anger because of the embarrassment she experienced.
"You there!" She uttered while looking at the drowsy Allen. She just looks so beautiful without her pigtails. "We'll talk this one out!"

The two teenagers sit on the sofa while being scolded by the angry Komui who just arrived from his work. His fiery eyes are burning the poor Allen Walker who is slapped in his own room by her new classmate, Lenalee Lee, who happens to sleep in the wrong house after all.
"I told you my house is painted white!" Komui growled at his sister for her mistake.
"But you never told me that your house looks like his!" She answered back standing from the sofa. "If you only gave me enough details, Nii-san!"
"Did anything happen between you two? I swear I'll kill this white-haired octopus for causing you impurities!"
"I told you! Nothing happened between us!" Lenalee growled as she looks at her brother in the eye.
Allen felt the urge to stop the two from fighting for they might bring up something he never wished for especially at his house. Sighing, he interrupted the two.
"Listen. Please. Calm down both of you!" He said sweat dropping. "We can talk this one out in a peaceful manner."
Komui's eyes glare at the white haired teenager. He never thought of Allen molesting his sister especially when she only arrived at their school this morning.
"Allen Walker!" He grinned with a devilish look on his face. He is like stalking Allen as if he is cornering him. His sister complex begins to activate again and this time his wrath will be poured on the white haired boy. "I CAN NEVER-"
A strong kick, which landed on his abdomen, halted Komui's words as he delivers his pain. He clutches himself finding the hurting spot. Allen sweat drops as he is shocked for his classmate just kick her brother.
"Lenalee! I'm not through with him yet!" Komui said with his eyes half-lidded while looking at his sister. "I can't forgive him for molesting you in bed!"
"I can't allow you, Nii-san." She replied picking her brother up. "It's all our fault. You can't blame him! Let's go home before this even gets worse or you might end up killing my classmate."
"Classmate?" Komui said with a confused look on his face. "Allen-kun is your classmate?"
"Yeah. I'm afraid so."
Komui's eyes shine upon hearing the confirmation. His eyes tell something fishy as he smiles wittedly.
"I'm sorry for bothering you and the slap I gave you earlier." Lenalee uttered as she drags her brother and her things to the door. "We'll be leaving."
"Uh... Okay..." Allen replied while he is being stared by Komui with that look on his eyes. "Thank... God... I'm... alive..."

Lenalee sits and eats her dinner with her loving and overprotective brother. She misses her brother's cooking when they're still together in China before he left her to start a new life. It's been hard for Komui to leave her sister but he wanted to have a life. But because of this, he constantly misses her.
"So, how's the food?"
"It's delicious!" She replied. "I craved for this while I'm in China."
"I'm glad to hear that." He gave her a brotherly smile. His face becomes a little serious after a moment. He begins to ask her about serious matters. "So, I guess you ran away from them right?"
Lenalee's eyes loss its joy as she loses her grip on her spoon when she heard his question. Later on, tears are being choked but I guess she couldn't help it as the roll down her flawless face of young beauty. What bothers her inside is what her brother was told about. The good thing is she ran away towards the lone person she could truly trust.
"Yes."
"I'm glad you did that." Komui replied. "You made the right decision, Lenalee."
"Nii-san, I'm scared."
"Don't be." He replied. "I'm here so I will always protect you."
"Thank you."
Placing a warm hug on his sister, he smiled for they are reunited once again.

Waking up in the middle of the night which he usually does, Allen opens his window to let some fresh air in to the room. He turns on the lights and looks at the wall clock for a little time check.
"11:30 pm." He yawned. "I guess I should practice again."
After that, he heads towards a huge black object just near his window. He opens the cover of the keys of black and white while pressing some to hear a few tones. Stretching his fingers, he sits on the chair in front of his inherited piano. Placing the score of the melody he made, he begins playing in the middle of the night.
Pressing each key in accordance with his score, the melody is brought back to life with the moon as the witness. At a young age, he already has a potential to be a great musician. Not all teenagers of his age is fond of creating melodies and in to music as much as he is but there is somewhat a deeper reason for him to practice every night.
After finishing the song with only a few errors, he felt sleepy again. He is getting better every night. With his soft cushy bed inviting him for another round of dreams, he goes to the window to close it before diving in again. But, he notices that he isn't the only one who is awake at that hour of the night. Staring at his neighbor's window, he saw his classmate, Lenalee, without her pigtails on. He blushed a bit as he looks at her who greeted him in return.
"Was it you who was playing?" She asked as she looks at the white haired boy while her hands are supporting her chin while looking out of her own window. He nodded.
"I'm so sorry if I woke you up." He said scratching the back of his head. "I actually play my piano this late every night."
"No... No..." She replied. "I can't sleep either. You're great... I mean... The piece that you played. What's the name of the musician you learned it from?"
Allen smiled upon hearing his classmate's question. Smiling, he answered her in a polite manner.
"Uhm. I... Made it..."
"Wow! That's... Simply amazing!" She replied with a smile on her face. He blushed because of her positive opinion which made his heart skipped a beat. "I really love music but music doesn't love me in return."
"Why is that?" He is getting interested in their little chat.
"I broke some musical instruments when I tried to learn how to play them. That's how I don't know any piece that I can play so all I can do is listen."
"Oh... I see..." He is sorry for her little tragedy in music. "Do you still want to learn?"
"Yes! Of course! I'd love to!"
"What if I teach you how to play the piano as a peace offering for what happened earlier?" He offered while measuring her reactions. He considered being turned down but at least he won't regret it. At least, he tried to fix what happened earlier. Sighing, he waited for her answer.
"Hmm. I guess..." Lenalee paused while looking at him. "Since you offered it, you mustn't blame me if I break that piano of yours."
He smiled at her upon hearing her answer which cause her to blush in an awkward way.
"No worries!" He said while laughing. "I'll be glad to teach you... Ah... Ah..."
'Oh shit! I forgot her name!'
"Don't tell me you forgot my name?" She said while her brows were twitching. Honestly, he did.
"Uhm. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to-"
"Lenalee." She smiled. "You can call me Lenalee."
"Oh. Okay. Lenalee. It's nice to meet you again and I promise I won't forget your name again!" He said while laughing at his mistake. "By the way, I'm-"
"Allen Walker." She interrupted. "I'd be calling you Allen-kun whether you like it or not. My brother told me a lot about you when I was still in China."
"Uh... Tha-that's great." He stared at her nervously while she is giggling. 'What a weird feeling.'
"So, Allen-kun." She uttered while getting a hold of the curtain. "When do we start?"
"Tomorrow, after our class perhaps?"
"Great! That would be nice but I'm warning you..." She laughed.
"Well... Okay..." He laughed as well as he does what she does with her curtain. "I'll see you tomorrow!"
"Yeah! Good night, Allen-kun!"
"Good night, Lenalee."

(Lenalee in her room)
'He's not that bad after all. I guess we'll become great friends. Oh! I better make a lot of friends since I'm new here.' She thought as she lies down her bed. Staring at the window, she wishes that the sun will come up soon. She's excited for her music lessons with her neighbor, Allen. 'I never thought that he would be a musician. It's just so... He doesn't look like one. I mean... He's weird but I never expect that side of him. I love his melody. I just can't wait to learn that! Oh. I better go to sleep.'
(Allen in his room)
'After she slapped me earlier, I thought she's a witch but I'm wrong about her. She's kind and she's really cute especially when she smiles.' Allen thought while looking up at the ceiling while resting on his bed. 'I hope she learns a lot from my teachings. Well, that's the only way I can pay her for what happened. At least... It's a start!'

The morning sunshine greeted every one in the town. Allen got up with a smile on his face. He woke up earlier than before. Preparing himself for school, he rushed for it's one good day coming up. At least, he wouldn't ruin it for being late. He got tired of being the god of all latecomers in school for he is very consistent of being late. Eating his toasted bread, he ran off to fetch his bicycle and his bag. He thought of one thing before he leaves his house. 'Avoid Komui.'
"Good morning, Allen-kun!"
I failed.
"Ah... Ah... Go-good morning Komui-san!"
Sweating like a river, Allen shakes in fear while Komui is on his way to him. Placing a hand on the boy's shoulder, he whispered at Allen's ears.
"Ne, Allen-kun." He started. "I'd like to ask you a favor! I can forgive you for what you did with my sister if you cooperate with me."
"Wha-what is it, Komui-san?" He wondered while looking at Komui's dreadful eyes. 'Please save me!'
"You will have to look after Lenalee for me since I can't guard her there because of my work."
'So you will even go to school if you don't have work.' He thought while being scared of Komui's eyes. "O-okay! I will watch after her Komui-san! I have to go!"
"I'll be counting on you, Allen-kun!" Komui replied while holding the huge scissor for cutting grass and branches as if he is scaring Allen.
A little later, Allen rides his bicycle until he notices a familiar girl with her nice pigtails who is currently on her way to school. He slows down to greet her with his smile.
"Good morning, Lenalee!"
"Wow!" She giggled. "I thought you forgot my name again! Good morning, Allen-kun!"
"You will walk all the way to school?"
"Yup."
"Get on." He said. " on my bicycle."
"Oh. Really... It's okay. I can walk all the way there."
"No. I insist." He smiled. "You'll be late if you don't ride with me."
Hesitant at first, Lenalee rides on the bicycle of Allen. She sat on the bicycle's extended seat where you can place extra luggage. (It's like a Japan Bike for clearer imagination.) Placing her bag on the basket in front, she nervously holds Allen as the bicycle speeds up.
"Don't be scared." He assured her feeling her hands shaking. "Just enjoy the ride. And I won't let you get hurt."
His words painted her cheeks red while they're on their way to school. As the wheels turn, would it be a start of something new?
"Hey! Are you sure that you can drive?"
"Hell Yeah!"
"?"
Crash!
"Ouch!"
