Wandering through the musty aisles of the library was oddly comforting to Allen. He didn't feel like he was being watched, as Link let him roam in here. He could hold a pleasant conversation with Lavi, or glare at Kanda in peace here. What he enjoyed most however, was when one Miss Lenalee Lee meandered through the aisles with him.
Unfortunately, today was not such a day. It was well into the evening and few lingered in the library. Link was practically glued to Allen's shoulder, and was currently urging the boy to finish up. "Walker, we really need to get going. I need to turn in this report, and I can't waste time wandering through the library!" a relatively irritable Link snapped.
Allen frowned, pretending to look for a book. "You know Link, you could just leave me be for a bit."
Link gave him a glare. Bags were evident under the young man's eyes, causing Allen to feel a tad guilty. "You know very well I can't do that. It is past midnight. Sensible people are already asleep by now." He turned towards the door. "You have 5 minutes. If you can't find your book by then it's your problem." With a yawn, he shuffled away.
Allen waited until Link's back was out of sight before turning and walking back the way he came. Brushing his hand across the bindings as he past, a bored look on his face, he made his way into the maze of shelves. Coming into a large open space, he was surprised to see Lenalee, sitting with her head on a large book. Tiptoeing up to her, he confirmed that she was asleep.
Allen looked around quickly for Link (or really anyone who could report back to Komui) before quietly slipping off his coat and laying it gently on her shoulders. Lenalee shifted in her chair and snuggled her way into the warm coat. Her hair which had grown out quite a bit since China flopped into her face. Without thinking he reached down and secured the loose strand of hair behind her ear. Blushing, he pulled his hand back only for it to be snatched by Lenalee.
Violet eyes, bleary with sleep, blinked up at him. "Allen…" she murmured with a small smile, before shifting her head and going back to sleep.
Allen reached down and brushed her forehead with a kiss. "Goodnight Lenalee," he whispered before extracting his hand and silently making his way to where Link was waiting. A night well spent in his opinion.
