Wolf: Hay! Feeling better are we Allen? ^_^

Allen: Err…yes thank you? Why do you ask?

Wolf: Nothing, just something Lavi said ^_^ ''

Allen:…Lavi…What did you tell her?

Lavi: Nothing!! I just said you were tiered I swear! I didn't say anything about-

Wolf: Errr…guys? I kinda rated this thing 'T' so do you mind keeping your bedroom talk for another fic?

Lavi: Aww…you mean there isn't going to be any lemons in this one? *perverted grin*

Allen: LAVI!! * Lavi*

Lavi:

Wolf: Ouch, =S. So yeah, I wont be writing any lemons seeing as this is my first fic, I wanna see how this one goes before I do something like that.

Ok, once again, big thanks to E. R. Burke, Thiendrah and Aion Laven Walker for the reviews and everyone else who added this story to their favourites, really motivates me ^_^

Lavi: Darkxwolfxdemon doesn't own -Man in anyway apart from a few mangas.

Wolf: Hay! I thought you were out?

Lavi: Had to come around to do the disclaimer, 'cause YOU never do!

Wolf: Pfft…meany *pouts*


It took a while for Lavi to detangle the mess of blankets on Allen's bed, but it took even longer to persuade the younger boy into having just one thin sheet to cover himself.

"But Lavi, I'm so cold." Said Allen as he done his best to wrap himself up in the thin piece of materiel to preserve more body heat.

The redhead made sure not to look at the white haired exorcist, while he straightened out the sheet which Allen was currently cocooning himself in. Lavi knew the younger well enough to know that he would have the 'puppy dog eyes' turned on at maximum right now, and he doubted he'd be strong enough to resist.

"Trust me Allen, you're about as cold as the Sahara Desert in the middel of summer at the moment. I could probably do a fry up on you're forehead."

A sudden coughing fit made it clear to the elder that it was now safe to look up at the smaller male. Sure enough, Allen had curled over on his side, his back to Lavi and his hand covering his mouth in a feeble attempt to muffle the coughs.

The sight made Lavi's heart clench. He hated seeing Allen like this, really hated it. He'd rather have the crap beaten out of him every day by Panda, than see the white haired exorcist in this condition (not that the stupid Panda didn't give him at least one kick in the head a day).

The redhead sat on the edge of the bed and gently rubbed the smaller male's back. It wasn't much, but it was enough to give Allen a small amount of comfort.

After the coughs had subsided, the younger exorcist rolled onto his back, his breath coming out in short gasps as he tried to regain control over his overheated body. The force of his coughs had left him weak, shaking and covered in even more sweat. Allen got a familiar sense of déjà vu as he felt the elder's cool hand on his brow, only this time in a more comforting manner, not just to check his temperature. Despite his earlier statement of being too cold, he lent towards the cooler limb.

" 'vi…" croaked out Allen, who grimaced at the sound of his own voice.

"Yeah?" replied the redhead, his hand moving over to the younger's temple to rub gently, trying to relieve the other's headache. Allen closed his eyes at the feeling.

"You don' hav'to be here, if you have other things t'do."

Allen didn't see the small smile form on the other's lips as he said this. He only felt the soothing hand move from his temple, to running its fingers through his snow-white hair, then back to his temple. He let out a small sigh of relief as he felt his headache go down from a bordering migraine, to a dull throb.

"I wouldn't leave you for anything, Allen." Came the elder's soft voice, although Allen wasn't sure if he was meant to have heard or not.

He nearly whimpered when he felt the other's hand leave his head. The smaller male opened his silver eyes to see Lavi rummaging around in a small bag he'd obviously brought back with him.

He screwed up his nose in disgust when he saw a small bottle of pills being pulled out. Damn it, he hated medication in any shape or form. It was one of the many reasons he didn't want to go to the infirmary (apart from the fact that the head nurse scared him more than the Earl did). Who knew how many drugs he would be forced to take if he went there? Allen frowned at the thought.

"Oh come on Moyashi, we need to give you something for that fever of yours."

Lavi couldn't stop himself from chuckling at the younger boy's face. It reminded him of a small child who didn't want to eat his vegetables.

"It's Allen, and don't need medication Lavi." Allen was grateful to find that his voice had improved since his last coughing fit, although it did still sound a bit raspy.

"Yeah right, try telling me that when I don't burn my hand on your forehead eh?" replied the redhead as he opened the little bottle and tipped two of the pills into his palm.

"Do you need water to take these, or can you swallow them dry?" he asked.

"I'm not taking them." Came the stubborn reply.

Lavi got the familiar urge to slap himself in the head again. Honestly, you would have thought that a fever like that would make a person less stubborn. But then again, since when did Allen Walker ever follow the laws of nature?

The elder found a jug of water and a glass on the younger's chest of draws, but when he turned back to the smaller male with a glass of water in his other hand, he found him hiding under the sheet.

What. The. Hell?

Lavi was now certain that he really would be slapping himself if both his hands weren't full. How the heck was he going to make the damn bean sprout take his medicine now?

A sudden idea hit him.

Sure, it wasn't the best of ideas, especially considering his feelings towards the white haired male, but it was the only thing he could come up with right now.

With his mind set on the task at hand, the redhead made his way to the other's bedside, taking a sip of the water then popping the two pills into his mouth, but didn't swallow.

When he was less than a foot away, he placed the now half-empty glass on the bedside table, leaving both hands free…

Then pounced.

Whatever Allen had been expecting the elder to do, it hadn't been jumping on top of him, wrenching the single sheet from head, then…

Kissing him?

What. The. Hell?


Wolf: voilà

Lavi and Allen: o.O…you're stopping HERE??!!

Wolf: Well yeah, I need people's opinion for the next chapter

Lavi: Meaning…?

Wolf: Well, I was thinking either I make you two confess up straight away…OR! I make you dance around each other a bit more, make Allen's fever spike so that Lavi has to give him a cold bath, THEN make you fess up ^_^

Allen: A bath? I thought you said this was rated 'T' =S

Lavi: Do you enjoy making Allen suffer or somthing?

Wolf: 1) the bath scene wouldn't be sexual, it would only be to bring Allen's temperature down and 2) yes I do ^_^

Lavi and Allen: o.O

Allen: Errr…Lavi, I'm scared =S

Lavi: Yeah, me to =S *pulls Allen away from Wolf*

Wolf: Sheesh…I'm not that bad, there are people who are ten times worse than me when it comes to making the characters suffer.

Lavi and Allen: O.o !!!

Wolf: ^_^ so anyways, please review so I know what kind of ending you all want. Pay no attention to those two though, they don't mind either way ^_^

Lavi and Allen: O.O !!??
