Okay, so two chapters today because I felt bad for not submitting it like I said I would T^T so sorry
I don't own -Man
I came home late tonight, I wanted to punch Lavi and Allen. When I came home Tiedoll told me Allen had come over for his clothes. "He looked sad, Kanda, he said Lavi threatened him and he was forced to do it...whatever that means"
I stopped walking up the stairs and stared at him.
"I need to go," I said, I ran down the stairs and threw open the door. I was running towards his house with superhuman speed. I wanted to tell him I forgave him, and that I loved his deformity, I would tell him that I was just shocked and it didn't bother me.
It wasn't a lle, I was shocked, I thought I hated him. But then, this morning I realized I didn't hate him, if anything, I loved him even more for trusting me enough to show me his insecurities.
I loved Allen so much, I wanted him to know how perfect he was, even if he wasn't my soulmate, I wanted him to know. He's mine, I don't care what that tattoo is, for now, he's mine. As I near his house I come up with a plan on how to murder Lavi. Maybe I'll run him over.
I text Tiedoll where I am, just in case Cross goes berserk on me or Allen. I'm at the door, and i'm about knock when I hear Allen's voice, what he says makes my blood run cold.
"Don't touch me! S-stop touching me!"
I don't waste time, I kick the door open. Time stops and I take in the scene before me. A man has Allen underneath him, one hand on Allen's bare inner thigh and one on his chest Allen's clothes are lying on the floor nearby, the only thing he's wearing are his boxers which the guy is trying to take off. Allen's trying to get the man to let go of him. "T-that hurts!" Allen cries, when the man latches his mouth on Allen's neck. I realize that the man's grip must be strong as well. He already has bruises on his waist.
My entrance makes all of this stop immediately. I grit my teeth, and kick the guy holding Allen in the face with such force that he skids a few feet. When Allen is free he grabs his clothes and I yank him to his feet.
I don't give him time to put on all his clothes, I drape my hoodie over his legs and I picked him up and held him bridal style as I ran. He was surprisingly light. With a horrifying revelation I realize it must be because Cross doesn't feed him. "Hey, Allen, my phone is in the hoodie I gave you, text Tiedoll and tell him whats happened."
Allen nodded and started texting.
"What'd you say?"
"I said, this is Allen something happened we're on our way home. Kanda's fine." he replied, his voice was shaking and tears were still pouring out of his eyes.
He was so vulnerable, practically naked in my arms and sobbing. I set him down and let him put on his clothes before we get any closer to my house.
He threw on his own hoodie and slipped into his skinny jeans, I hugged him tightly and I picked him up again and walked to my house. When we got to the front door Tiedoll was waiting, worry evident on his face.
"What happened?" He asked, Allen whimpered.
"Y-you told him me and K-kanda kissed r-r-right?" Allen asked.
"Yes I did, I thought he'd be happy for you.." Tiedoll replied
Allen laughed bitterly, "He slammed my head in the wall twelve times and threw me down the stairs and tried to choke me," Allen said defeatedly, showing Tiedoll the bright purple bruises around his neck that I hadn't noticed in all the chaos. Tiedoll gasped with a hand over his mouth.
Allen continued, "W-when I got home after coming here, I-I h-he-" Allen struggled to get the words out. I put my hand on his shoulder for comfort.
"There were people there i'd never seen before, and since Cross finally figured out I was g-gay, he said I could p-pay off his d-d-debt a different w-way.."
I stiffened and growled, "Debt?" Tiedoll and I asked, he shrunk before my eyes.
"U-um, he drinks alot, he's actually more violent when he's sober so, I like it when he drinks, anywaaay, so usually I just play poker, i'm really good at it and I go pay off his debts everyday..oh, and I don't actually have a job, that was a lie."
"I see," Tiedoll said, so Allen continued.
"H-he never told how he wanted his debt paid s-so that's how I did it, but t-today" his breathe caught "So one o-of the men there g-got on top of me and he tried t-to-he was so much s-stronger t-than me.."
Allen kept stumbling over his words I would've thought it was cute if it were a better situation, and neither me or Tiedoll were becoming impatient, we were trying to keep him as comfortable as possible so he could tell us what happened.
I held his scarred hand, and he continued, "He tried to un-undress me, and then Kanda was there so he can tell you.."
I told Tiedoll what happened. Allen was quiet through all of it until Tiedoll asked him a question.
"Does he beat you everyday?"
Allen lifted his head, "Um, yeah, but sometimes he's passed out.."
"How exactly, if you mind me asking, does he abuse you?"
"He usually screams at me first, kicks me, and then punches me a lot. Most of the time i'm only allowed to take cold showers, and he doesn't cook food, so I always cook and I don't bother making any food for myself because he thinks I don't deserve anything, so I haven't eaten anything in front of him for the longest time..."
"Anything else?" I asked with interest, I wanted to know exactly what Cross did to him on a daily basis.
"He tried to cut off my tattoo so I couldn't find my soulmate once, there's a scar on it."
"Allen, you can stay here tonight, but you're going to have to go back home soon." Tiedoll said sadly. I sighed, I wanted him to stay, I didn't want him going where he couldn't eat dinner or take a warm shower I wanted him to feel safe.
He smiled, "Thank you.."
Tiedoll smiled and headed for his painting room. I dragged Allen up to my room and turned to him. He eyes flashed with mischievousness, "Now what?" As if nothing had important had just happened. I smiled, "Show me your tattoo?"
Allen smiled "Okay, it's on my thigh though...so.." he blushed and rubbed his neck.
"It's fine," I say, "I wanna know, what it is.."
"Alright.."
Allen took off his pants and I gasped when I saw his tattoo, it was identical to mine.
"W-what?" he said, eyeing me suspiciously, I looked at his slender legs that were covered in bruises, and then at his tattoo again, a branch of cherry blossoms. He was my soulmate. We found each other without even knowing it when we were children, we were soulmates the entire time…
"We're soulmates," I say, showing him my tattoo, he gave me a terrified look and it broke my heart.
"Don't tell Cross." he whispered, as I drew him closer, he gave me an annoyed look.
"What?" I ask, raising my eyebrows, he rolled his eyes.
"Can't I put pants on first? Or at least put on a different shirt?" He asked, I snorted.
I nodded and he changed his shirt and put some pants on to my disappointment. He plopped onto my bed and layed down. I layed down next to him and he groaned, I whispered in his ear if he was okay, he nodded and said he was just sore. I kissed his neck gently and he made a noise in his throat it was really sexy.
I hold him in my arms and he snuggles up against me are breathes mingle.
"I'm afraid, Kanda.."
"I'm sorry you can't stay forever."
"It's fine, I didn't expect that to happen anyway…I just don't want to go back to that, Kanda.."
"If it does text me.." I told him, he smiled and nodded.
In the darkness me and Allen fell asleep clinging to each other.
I woke up to Allen poking me, I groan and roll away from Allen.
"Wake up…" He whined.
I groan again and he just climbs over me, finally fed up with being overly polite to me, good. He's too polite for his own good anyway. I hear him walk down the stairs and I finally get up. I grab Allen's clothes and throw them in the washer so they're clean when he leaves.
I walk down the stairs and hear the piano being played, it was a jubilant tune, happy and light-hearted, being played by two people. I open the door to the spare room to find something I never thought I'd see, Tiedoll was playing the piano with Allen. The last time that happened Allen and I were kids.
I lean against the doorway and listen to them play, a few seconds later Allen stops playing only to burst out laughing, "You're really out of practice Tiedoll!"
Tiedoll laughed with him and I smiled, "Are you two going to eat breakfast anytime soon?" I ask, Allen turns to look at me and brightens up even more. "I was waiting for you," he says with a smile.
"Oh," I blush, he laughs. Tiedoll smiles at me with that knowing look, he fucking knows. I'm about to confront him when he says. "So..you guys have the same tattoo!" He says excitedly, "I knew it would be you!" he said, hugging Allen and he blushes. Apparently Allen didn't plan on Tiedoll reacting that way.
"Um, what do you mean?" Allen asked, giving me a curious glance, I roll my eyes, I don't really want him to know how much of a jerk I really am. Tiedoll smirks, he can be evil sometimes.
"Well, when he went to a different school he had no friends and got in fights daily..but that hasn't happened since we moved."
Allen smirked, "Is it because of me?" he asked, he's so fucking smart and he knows it because he's right. I was a total jerk to everyone, I didn't let anyone get near me and now I know why, I waiting for Allen all this time. I give a slight nod, and he laughs, I was about to say something when the door rings, I go and open it and immediately make a gross face.
"Where is he?" Cross says gruffly, I hate the way he smells, he smells so strongly of smoke, but he doesn't smell like alcohol and I remember what Allen had said about him being more violent when sober. Cross shoulder's pass me and goes straight for Allen, Allen puts his hands in his pockets and averted his eyes.
"Cover that thing up" Cross said in disgust, gesturing to his arm. Allen nodded curtly, before putting his hoodie on, his whole being changed in one second, one instant he was completely normal, the next he withdrew within himself. He was no longer the confident person I knew, he was the quiet and abused child of Cross Marian.
"Hurry up," Cross muttered, his voice vibrated deeply, I could see why he was afraid of men like Cross. Allen said something softly, and Cross flipped his shit, I could see the panic in Allen's eyes.
"What did you say?" Cross said dangerously, leaning closer to Allen. I wanted to put myself in front of Allen, I wanted to protect him from this man. They were standing a few feet away from the door, and Cross slapped Allen so hard across the face that the side of his face hit the wall. Allen eyed Cross fearfully, I start walking over there, but Tiedoll stops me. "What are you doing?" I whisper, but he shakes his head.
"Head home." Cross said, shoving Allen out the door and turning to Tiedoll.
"I'm sorry it's such a burden." Cross spat, pointing to Allen, who could clearly hear every word his old man said.
Cross left, Allen walking ahead of him without a glance back. I let him go back to that monster without much of a fight.
So should I make a fanfic with a Harry Potter theme? (Kanda, Lavi, Lenalee and Allen all at Hogwarts NO HARRY OR CANON CHARACTERS BTW)
Yes or No?
