Hey guys, I had this finished days ago, but we moved house and we had no internet for anything. I'm working on the next chapter of The Song That They Danced. YOU WON'T BE EXPECTING WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE STORY! :D Or maybe you will, I don't know :3
Anyway, I'll try and get it done ASAP! Continue with the story!
And thank you to my lovely reviewers and followers! I love you all!

The morning came so bloody slow, it wasn't funny. I had the hardest time falling asleep because yesterday's events kept running through my mind on repeat. The agreement to let us rent an apartment together, the sudden passionate kiss, quick game of strip poker and Lavi's leaving kiss. The best moments I've had this past week.
I regretfully dragged myself out of bed, pulling the covers off with me as I stood up and walked to the shower. I pulled my towel off its hook behind the bathroom door and flung it over the edge of the shower wall. I turned the hot water on until it was hot, and then the cold to make it a reasonable temperature.
I washed my white hair, washed my body and turned off the water. I pulled my towel down and wrapped it around my slim waist and stepped out of the steaming shower. As the air from outside of the shower hit my warm skin, it raised goosebumps on my body. The air was cold, and I was warm. I quickly left the steaming bathroom and ran to my room, not caring with how much noise I was making because Uncle Neah slept like a rock and Father would already be at work doing whatever the heck he does.
I pulled out a pair of boxers, a black pair of pants, socks, a white shirt, a black vest, red ribbon and a jacket to throw over top in case it was cold. I quickly pulled on my boxers, pants and slipped on my white shirt and the vest and discarded the towel in the hallway. I slipped my socks on, and tied the ribbon around my neck. I then grabbed my bag that had everything I needed from my doorway and headed into the kitchen to make myself some breakfast before heading over to school.
While I was waiting for my toast to pop, I stole a look at the time on the microwave, and it said '7:30 A.M' I sighed and pulled out my phone, ready to call Lavi when it rang. The caller ID said; Lavi. I answered it on the first ring.
"Morning sleeping beauty, how are you?" I said grinning into the phone. Lavi groaned on the other end.
"Well, at least I'm awake before you called, and I thought that I might call you to see if you were awake. Seems like you are, so I'll be at your house in about twenty minutes." Lavi said and yawned hugely. I chuckled.
"Okay, okay. Just hurry up, we have classes at eight-twenty." I said and hung up. The toast then decided that it should pop up and smell like a fire. I turned and looked at it, it was on bloody fire!
"Shit!" I yelled and went for the water. I forgot one fact: never throw water on electricity that was still plugged in and turned on. When I threw the water onto the toaster, the whole bloody thing decided to spark and set fire to whatever it could. I was fucking freaking out. I ran as fast as I bloody could to Uncle Neah's room, by now the smoke alarms were going off, and I slammed Uncle Neah's door open. It pulled him out of his slumber, and his eyes were wide.
"What the heck did you do Allen?! Why are the alarms going off and why does it smell like—Fire?!" Uncle Neah yelled and ran out of bed. By now, most of the kitchen was on fire. Uncle Neah shovelled water onto the bigger flames and yelled at me to call the fire department. I did and told them where we were.
By the time I had just gotten off the phone to the fire dept., Lavi ran inside and saw the flames climbing. He ran to my side and asked what the heck happened. I told him.
"Damn, so it kind of is my fault? Sorry Allen." Lavi apologised.
"Nah, it's kind of my fault for not paying attention to the toast while I was talking with you." I replied and hugged him. The fire dept. pulled up in our driveway and ran inside with water pack on their backs. They extinguished the fire in ten minutes, and then they asked questions. I answered them all.
"Well, this would have taught you a lesson, kid, to not be on the phone while making toast. Alright?" the guy said and laughed a little, and we all joined in. When they left, Uncle Neah sighed and ran a hand through his unruly black hair.
"Allen, you do realise how much freaking trouble you're going to be in when Mana gets back, right?" Uncle Neah said and looked at me. I looked down at the floor and shuffled my feet.
"Yeah, I do. But we need to have this fixed before he comes home or else he won't let me and Lavi rent an apartment together." I said and tears welled up in my eyes. I didn't want Father to not let me rent an apartment with Lavi, I really didn't. He would get so, so mad at me for this, and I didn't know what to do. I was scared, really scared.
I was pulled out of my thoughts when a pair of comforting arms wrapped around my shoulders. I turned myself around in them, wrapping my arms around Lavi's waist.
"Help me Lavi; I don't want Father to be mad at me." I said and the tears spilt over. Lavi hugged me tighter and whispered in my ear.
"It'll be alright, Allen." Lavi whispered in my ear over and over again. Uncle Neah had walked away, and came back looking more presentable, but his unruly black hair always stayed unruly. It made him darkly handsome.
"Allen, I'll take the blame for this. I know how much you want to share an apartment with Lavi, and I don't want to deny you your freedom." Uncle Neah said and messed up my hair. I looked at him and pretty much threw myself at him.
"Thank you so much Uncle Neah!" I yelled and hugged him tight. He chuckled and hugged me back.
"Anytime Allen, anytime." He said and slightly pushed me off him and towards Lavi's open arms.
"C'mon, we have five minutes to get to class on time." Lavi said and pulled me towards the door. I picked up my bag and put on my shoes and followed Lavi outside to his car. We got in and Lavi started it up and floored it out of my driveway and onto the street. I had to grab onto the bar above the door just to keep myself in place with Lavi's freak driving.
"Lavi, slow down! You're going to kill us!" I yelled, gripping onto the bar tighter. Lavi grinned.
"Nah, you won't die with my expert driving." Lavi said back and slowed down a little bit, and that was enough for me to relax and let go of the bar. I sighed and bent down to tie my shoelaces. While I was bent down, I stole a look at my watch; '8:19 A.M.'. Not enough time.
"Lavi, we have one minute to get to Professor Mikk's class, that creepy biology teacher that created his own butterfly." I said as I came back up. Lavi shivered.
"Don't worry, if we run in and say we're sorry, he won't force the Tease onto us." Lavi said with a faked grin.
"I highly doubt that. He sends the Tease onto anyone who is even a second late." I said and checked my watch again; '8:23 A.M.'. Oh, we are so screwed. I thought, imagining the deadly bite of the Tease. I had only heard of the Tease's deadly bite, and I haven't experienced the deadly bite yet.
About ten minutes later, we pulled into the student carpark of the college. The place was void of any life, besides us. As soon as Lavi locked his car, we pretty much ran to the lecture room owned by Professor Mikk. We paused outside the room and caught our breath.
"Well, here goes." I said and opened the door.
A whole room full of people looked at us, and we just stood there looking like idiots. I looked up from the floor to find a small, golden thing flying at high speed towards my face.
"What the—" I said before the golden thing launched itself at me. I took it off my face.
"Timcanpy?! If you're here then that means…" I wondered out loud and stole a look towards the lecture podium. Sure enough, a tall man with red hair and half of his face covered by a mask.
"Oh? The idiot apprentice of mine has arrived at last with his idiotic friend." The man said.
"M-master… Cross…?" I said disbelievingly. I wasn't believing what I was seeing. My stupid piano master was sitting at that creepy, psychotic biology teacher's chair.
"The one and only. Now take your seats and shut the hell up and pay attention." Master said and lit a smoke. The stupid idiot, just cause you're a relief, doesn't mean you can do whatever!
"Allen, are you alright?" Lavi asked me. I nodded.
"Just fine." I replied. In truth, I wasn't. I'm pretty sure a dark aura was surrounding me, and that was probably what was scaring Lavi. I sighed and pulled out my book and pen. The little golden golem, Timcanpy, had stayed on my head after me letting him go.
"Okay, since everyone is here… do whatever you do in this creeps class." Master said and walked outside.
"He's a teacher… he isn't supposed to do that!" a new voice called from the back corner. I turned and looked at the source.
"Oh no, not you!" I yelled and pointed at the corner.
Oh no! Who is the corner creep?! D: You will find out next chapter! :D Allen, don't burn down the house again! You're not England. *laughs*
Thank you for reading my lovelies!
