Allen felt wonderful and he couldn't remember the last time he felt so energize. Slowly his senses came to life and his entire being came alert. The warmth provided by his bed made Allen simply want to stay on that spot for the rest of the day. He snuggle closer to his pillow and took in a deep breath. The soft smell of sandalwood and old spices invaded his nose. That was odd, he had never smell that before. Frowning with his eyes still close, Allen took in another deep breath wanting to make sure he was right.

Again the same smell attack him. Deciding to finally open his eyes, Allen adjusted his vision as the light of the room reached his sleepy eyes. He blink and stare at a dark like fabric once he could see better. If the scent was weir the dark barrier in front of his eyes was very strange. Allen slowly search every inch of the fabric until his eyes reached his hands. He was gripping the whatever it was in front of him.

The teen simply stare at his softly balled hands. As he lay glue on the spot he notice how his hands would move. It seem like the fabric could breath or something.

Now completely freaked out, Allen decided to look up. His eyes reach the top of the dark fabric until a neck appear, a strong and firm jaw follow and finally a pair of lips. It was all Allen could see while laying down as someone hover over him.

Without thinking, Allen jerk back a few inches and the face of one sleeping Kanda Yuu was visible.

Bloody! What the...?

Allen quickly pulled away while sitting up on his bed. He stare down wide-eyed at Kanda. What was the ravenette doing on his bed sleeping? He didn't know and he really wanted to find out. As he stare, Allen tried to remember what had led to this invent. His mind went way back to last night wanting to recall what really happened.

He had come home after work, that part was clear to him. After that he ate something before taking a shower, and right about there Allen slowly began to drift away. With the warmness of the water and his aching body, the teen only remember opening the door to Kanda and that was all. Did he somewhere between opening the door and seeing Kanda had he passed out? Nodding to himself, Allen completely ignore the stirring next to him.

As the young male sat pondering on his thought, Allen had a nagging feeling that he was missing something. Maybe Kanda had told him something important and now he couldn't remember.

Allen decided to leave that thought aside and focus on the main topic at the moment. Which was how did Kanda ended up sleeping on his bed, in his room and inside his of his apartment.

The most important though, why was Allen clinging to Kanda like a baby? Alright maybe Allen used to do that a lot, but he was a child at that time. He had stopped doing that a long time go. He had to admit Kanda did offer warmth and a nice scent, but that didn't mean it was okay to grip to the model tightly.

He mentally let out a loud sigh and hope he hadn't freaked Kanda out instead. What if Allen got to clingy yesterday and because of that Kanda had to stay.

No!

0o0o0o0o

Kanda simply stay put on the bed while looking over Moyashi waiting to see how long would it take for the younger male notice that Kanda was already up. The ravenette was awaken when he felt his arm drop from holding the boy. He felt movement and the absent of the warm body next to him was what finally made Kanda open his eyes.

As he watch the many times the Moyashi's facial repression change, Kanda already had a hunch of what the boy was thinking.

The silence continue and Kanda was still waiting for the silver eyed teen to look his way. While gazing at the figure sitting on the bed, Kanda couldn't help but think back on the kiss the two had shared. Simply remembering that event, the model wanted nothing more than to just pin the Moyashi on the bed and finish what he began yesterday. He wanted the boy to be under him, writhing in pleasure and moaning Kanda's name out.

Stop!

That thought did nothing but to heat up his body on the wrong way. Kanda quickly got that image out of his head and thought about something unpleasant instead. To his relief, the ravenette got his body under control before finally getting the boy's attention.

"Too much thinking, Moyashi."

The other occupant of the bed quickly looked down at him. "Y-you're awake. Kanda what are you doing in my apartment?"

Kanda had a feeling that was what the boy would ask the moment he opened his eyes. Taking a few seconds to find a proper reply, Kanda finally was ready to answer. "Moyashi, yesterday you-" Barely having started he stopped when Moyashi gasp.

"Kanda, I'm so sorry If I trouble you yesterday. You see, I was very tired when I came home. I really don't remember what happen and now I find you in my room and I know it was my fault that you stayed and I-"

Kanda silence the teen's on going explanation. "It wasn't your fault. I decided to stay after you passed out by the front door. I thought you were sick."

The Moyashi seem baffle at first before he was nodding at what Kanda said. He was thoughtful for a few seconds before smiling that warm smile the younger male was only capable of showing.

"Were you worry about me, Kanda?" The innocent look he gave Kanda was very tempting.

"Che, I thought you were dead when I picked you up."

"But I thought you said that you thought me sick." The teen then pouted at him making Kanda test his self-control.

The ravenette decided to finally sit up. As Kanda sat face to face with his temptation, he reach out and tug the Moyashi's face towards him. The boy was stun and tried to pull back from the model's hold.

"Kanda what is-"

"The dark circles under your eyes are gone." The long haired male cut the Moyashi off.

The boy immediately halt all action and stare at Kanda with a start. "You notice?" The silver eyed teen said forgetting about the proximity and position they were in.

"Anyone could." Kanda gently rubbed one of his thumbs under the younger's eye. A moment later Kanda let go of the soft cute face.

The model watch the Moyashi adjust in the bed before he spoke. "Thank you Kanda, for helping me." Again that irresistible smile resurface. Nodding, Kanda only watch the Moyashi getting out of bed.

"Well I should get up. Are you hungry? I can make breakfast." The boy went straight to a closet and slide the door open. Kanda saw him getting clothes out and setting them on a chair.

Without a word, Moyashi began to strip. Kanda was immobilize, and he couldn't look away. His dark eyes set firmly on the figure only a few feet away. Slowly the shirt covering Moyashi was off reveling smooth creamy pale skin. Kanda felt his heart hit his rib cage and his blood turn hot as he saw the Moyashi half-naked.

To soon for his liking Kanda's free viewing was over after the boy recover himself. The younger male completely ignoring the heated gaze on himself. Right after the pajama bottom was replace by jeans. Kanda notice that Moyashi wore boxers. He saw the boy entering a bathroom and after a few minutes he was out.

"If you want there is an extra toothbrush in one of the drawers in the bathroom. I'll be in the kitchen." The door close behind Moyashi leaving Kanda alone.

He listen as footsteps began to fade as the Moyashi left further away, and Kanda simply threw himself back in bed. He rolled over and breathe in the boy's scent on the pillows, the blanket and even the mattress carry that wonderful fragrance. Kanda couldn't remember the last time he had held himself back like this.

It was clear to Kanda that the Moyashi didn't recall the kiss they shared. The ravenette didn't know if that was bad or good. He laid on the soft warm bed a while longer before he finally decided to get up.


The rest of their morning was great. The Moyashi prepared a wonderful Japanese breakfast and Kanda enjoy the meal. During the time at the table they spoke. It began with Moyashi wanting to know about Kanda. The ravenette didn't find anything wrong with a little talk and answer all the questions the boy had. The Moyashi wanted to know about the things he like and didn't like. Kanda for the first time had to think thoroughly on his answers.

The model however did notice that not once did Moyashi mention Kanda's work or anything related to the topic. The younger man laughed at a few things that he found funny and the sound was like music to Kanda's ears. Being won by his own curiosity, the ravenette as well learned some things about the Moyashi after he asked. He now knew that the boy loved sweets.

Everything was going to well that Kanda had thought that the time to finally tell Moyashi about his feelings was at this moment. They were in their own bobble. It was perfect. There was no tension between them as they sat in comfort. He took a deep breath getting ready to do something that might change everything for ever.

That was until the atmosphere around them got destroyed by one single word.

"Allen!"

In walk the rock that shatter the perfect moment.

"Oh? Lavi good morning."

The idiot redhead walk in the apartment unnoticed by the two. He stood still once he spot Kanda sitting at the table and his smile dropped by a few inches.

"And Yuu-chan is here to?"

The better question was how in the hell did that baka get inside? Kanda remember clearly locking the front door last night. How was it possible for the moron to enter without a key? Or better yet, did that annoying red dot have a key?

"Have you ate Lavi?" Moyashi ask looking ready to get up from his seat.

"Yes I did so don't worry buddy." The intruder strode around Kanda and sat down. The model could tell that Lavi was searching for something as they talk. The rest of the morning proceeded with the baka usagi rambling on about the way his grandfather worked him to the bone.

Was there anyone more annoying than the person sitting not to far from him?

0o0o0o0o

The moment he arrived, Lavi could feel the tension coming from Kanda. The redhead of course ignored his mood and focus on his friend instead. As the minutes ticked away Lavi notice something very interesting happening around him. The emerald eye male cautiously kept looking at the model sitting right next to him. He wanted to find the answer to whatever kept nagging at him.

Lavi glance back at his friend then he solved it. His best friend, his buddy and pal at the moment was the innocent yet oblivious little lamb. Looking back at Kanda, Lavi saw the big, bad and starving wolf.

Could it be? Lavi wonder silently after catching Kanda staring at his friend again. If the look in Kanda's eyes was what Lavi thought, then there was something he had to do. Lavi Bookman would be the Shepherd in this little scene. Keeping the bad wolf away from the little lamb would be his task. But then again Lavi might just be paranoid about the past and his mind was tricking him. Although there was the chance that he was right and Kanda did view his best friend as something more.

After all Kanda is bisexual. Looking into the matter wouldn't hurt, and plus he might be helping out his oblivious friend.

They ended up in Allen's bedroom. Lavi gave his friend a few books that he had brought. Allen was very happy to accept them. As the three kept themselves busy, Lavi thought about something that might help him find out if Kanda view little Allen as a love interest.

He walk up to one of Allen's nightstand and open the second drawer. He look inside as if killing time until he found what he needed. He took out a small wooded box and took settlement on the bed.

"Lavi what are you doing?" The redhead gaze up as he heard Allen. At the same time Kanda look away from the large bookshelf.

"Nothing Al, just wanting to remember our earlier days." He remove the top of the box and slowly reach inside taking out Allen's old pictures.

He saw Kanda approaching him and couldn't have it any other way. Pretending not to notice the long hair male, Lavi continue to look over the photos. The ravenette stood in front of him taking the pictures that he had set down on the nightstand. After a while Lavi got to the end where a certain picture was.

"Hey Allen. You still kept this picture?" Lavi said while looking at the person in the photo.

"Which one?" Allen wonder not once looking away from the closet.

"The one of Lo Fwa." Lavi saw Allen turn around, but Kanda couldn't have ask at a better time.

"Who's that?"

With a smile on his face the redhead answer with a cheerful tone. "Why, that was Allen's girlfriend."

And there it was, jealousy.

Lavi mentally high-five himself as the picture in his hand was abruptly taken away. He didn't need the picture anymore it had served its purpose, but there was the fact that Lavi now knew that Kanda might be interested in his friend as a possible lover.

Man Al, you're in for it.

0o0o0o0o

Did Kanda actually hear right. Girlfriend? He stare down at the picture that showed a smiling girl. She had dark hair that was in a braid, her eyes were brown and she had glasses. This was the person his Moyashi used to date? But it didn't end there. Why did the boy still kept a picture of an ex?

He was jealous, Kanda knew he was. Never before had he felt this sudden feeling. His possessiveness yelled at him at the same time to rush to the teen and demand an explanation. However his more reasonable side told him that the Moyashi was not his yet. Yet being the key word meaning he couldn't demand anything. He hatefully glare at the photo before setting it down and looking away. He had to relax.

"No taste Moyashi." It was all Kanda could say. He walk back to the bookshelf wanting to get the image that slowly invade his mind of Moyashi and the girl together.

The ravenette heard the boy say something as he walked towards Lavi, but Kanda couldn't hear it clearly. There was some talking behind him but he didn't pay attention to it. He was still trying not to do something rash. After a while the usagi's phone rang making both Moyashi and Kanda look up. He was better now after telling himself that Moyashi no longer was seeing that girl. The boy himself told Kanda that he wasn't seeing anyone.

"It's gramps, he wants me in the office." By the tone of the baka, Kanda could tell the redhead wasn't to happy to leave.

"Go, its fine. I'm sure he needs your help." Moyashi smile understanding to his friend. Reluctantly Lavi left, but not after the Moyashi reassured him that everything was fine and Kanda found it odd.

The rest of their afternoon become like their morning. Kanda really did enjoy spending time with the Moyashi. They were back in their little world. Unfortunately as always good times come to an end. Kanda had to leave after dinner he couldn't stay even if he wanted. Last night he had a good reason to stay and sleep on Moyashi's bed but not today.

"Well thanks Kanda, for spending the day with me." Moyashi smile as they stood by the front door.

"It was nothing." Kanda gaze at the boy's face, and he really did want to stay again.

As the front door open Kanda stepped out, but before he left he said something that only now popped in his head. "What are you doing tomorrow?"

The Moyashi blinked while looking thoughtful then he spoke. "I don't know, why do you ask?"

"Do you want... to go somewhere?" Kanda had never felt something to say this hard but he manage though.

The Moyashi eyed Kanda briefly before nodding. "Alright I'll go with you. What time exactly?"

Kanda told the younger male that he would pick him up at ten in the morning and from there they would go where Kanda would take them. The boy agree before finally disappearing behind the close door. As he walked to his car, Kanda was planning to do something he loathe. He drove to the B.O building first. In that building was something that might help him. If everything would go according to how he saw it, then tomorrow would be a good day.


It was almost ten in the morning when Allen open the door to Kanda. As always the model wore dark colors. He had a black coat, jeans and his hair tied up in that long ponytail the ravenette always had.

"Good Morning Kanda." Allen greet as he stepped out from his apartment.

Kanda simply nod back. The teen quickly came to understand that Kanda wasn't the type of person who liked talk much, but it didn't bother him. It was a bit chilly today this morning. Allen wore a white hooded sweater under a black jacket, jeans and a gray beanie with white and black diamond patterns on his head letting it untied.

After closing the door behind him, the two made their way to the elevator. Allen try to get Kanda to tell him where they were going, but the model wouldn't tell him anything. Just a simple 'be patient Moyashi' come from him. That only ticked Allen off so he counter back with a 'fine Bakanda' which of course set the other off.

Allen got inside Kanda's black – no surprise there – sport cart. The engine came to life and they drove off, to a speed that made Allen's heart pound wildly.

"K-Kanda you should slow down." He advice the driver while he held the leather of his seat. He briefly looked out the window to see how fast things outside moved. His words met deaf ears as Kanda kept driving over the speed limit. After a few agonizing minutes the car came to a stop and Allen didn't waste time on getting out.

"What Moyashi, a little speed too much?" The teasing in Kanda's voice didn't go unnoticed by Allen.

He half glare at the model before straightening up. "Was that for the whole Bakanda thing?" Allen ask before looking at the large parking lot. He was briefly disoriented until he remember where he stood.

The two were on the side of the city where all the fancy and expensive department stores are. How did he know? Well the young teen has been to this place before. Lavi really enjoyed shopping in a particular store that was not to far from where he stood. The redhead of course was from a money family, Bookman ran a very successful company after all.

Setting that little memory aside, Allen should have known Kanda would bring him to a place like this or at least something related to it. The model was 'loaded' as Lavi simply put it. With a nod to himself Allen approach Kanda.

"So where to?"

The ravenette led the way and Allen follow. He glance around and ask Kanda if he like to shop. The model simply said that he needed something and that was the reason for them being here. As they walk Allen tripped along the sidewalk and almost hit the ground if it wasn't for the firm body that held him. He blinked and look up to see Kanda holding him.

"Sorry, I didn't see where I was going." Allen smile apologetic.

"Careful Moyashi, wouldn't want you getting hurt."

Allen taken aback by the way Kanda spoke the words, stared at the older male. It sounded as if the model really cared about his safety. Losing the grip on Kanda's forearm and trying to rise from putting pressure on the chest and body that held him, Allen manage to glance away from Kanda.

Slowly, Allen was back on his feet. He look down at his hands that were held by Kanda and slightly tug. After a few minutes he was fully release and they continue to walk. Allen was cautious this time, but unbeknownst to them someone watch.

0o0o0o0o

They enter the inside of the warm building. Allen gaze around to see no one, just rows and rows of clothing. He was about to ask Kanda where else they would go when someone else spoke.

"Kanda-sama."

Allen turn to look behind him and there stood a girl. She was looking shy and nervous. The strange girl was Japanese and little shorter than Allen. Her hair was cut short in a bob and light brown. Her eyes were a deeper shade of brown and coloring around them was a pinkish glittering eye makeup. The girl had a short pale pink jacket over a white blouse. She was wearing a dark violet skirt that almost looked like a tutu with black leggings and gray high heel boots that reach her ankles. To Allen the girl was one of the prettiest girl he had seen.

"Don't stare, Moyashi."

Kanda's voice made him look away from the girl to the ravenette. "You know her?" Allen ask.

"She will be going along." It was the model's simple reply.

The girl slowly made her way towards them and introduced herself. She was even shyer as she spoke. Allen happily and trying to get her to feel comfortable greeted her nicely. Her name was Tamaka Midori and Allen thought she had a nice smile. The two instantly began to talk complete forgetting about Kanda who stood behind them.

Once the ice broke, Midori tugged Allen around while looking at the many things. For a moment Allen thought Kanda was glaring at them and because of that he had to ask something.

"Hey Midori-san, are you by any chance Kanda's girlfriend?" Allen had to know. He didn't want to upset Kanda if she was.

The girl looked speechless as her pink color cheeks turn darker. "N-no I'm not, but-" Midori averted her eyes away not being able to look at Allen in the eye.

"But what?"

Sighing softly, Midori turn back to him. "I have loved Kanda-sama for the past two years." She said very shyly again. Allen simply watched her then his eyes widen slightly.

"Does he know?"

She shook her head while looking down at the ground. "No he doesn't. I have tried talking to him but it's difficult."

As he look at the girl bit her glossy bottom lip, Allen came up with a plan. He scan around for Kanda and saw the model not to far away. "I will help you," Allen stated making the girl look up.

"I will help you get Kanda."

The confuse look on Midori vanish completely and got replace by joy. "Really?" She said almost squeaking.

Allen shook his head and went ahead and told Midori a few things that he knew about Kanda. The girl payed attention and took everything in. At the end she was more than happy to know more about her crush.

The younger man then began to get the two to spend time together. Kanda looked at him weird at first, but didn't say a thing. As Midori tried to get Kanda into trying on a shirt, Allen came along and helped.

"Come on Kanda, try it on." He pleaded and Kanda end up changing.

As they stood waiting for the ravenette to arrive, Allen's phone buzzed inside his pocket. He took it out and answer to Lavi who begged Allen to help him out with some paper work. Of course Allen told his friend that he would be on his way.

"Midori-san, I have to leave. Can you please tell Kanda that I had to go somewhere else it's important. Before you get nervous please try to bond with Kanda. He isn't that difficult as you say. Just remember what I said and you'll be alright."

The girl understood and saw Allen leave. She hope the advise from the teen would help.

0o0o0o0o

Kanda couldn't believe it his plan wasn't working out like he thought it would. When he had picked up Moyashi that morning Kanda thought that the boy look adorable with his beanie. He couldn't wait to arrive to their destination. Briefly, before entering the department store Kanda was ready to turn back with the Moyashi and head to his apartment instead. Holding the boy always made things difficult for him, but he didn't the ravenette had something already plan for them. That plan had the shape of a girl by the name of Midori.

He had asked – with a lot of effort on his part – the female model to come along with them for the simple fact that Midori was to make the Moyashi jealous. Kanda wanted to get some reaction from the younger male. Maybe then the ravenette would know what type of feelings the boy has towards him.

How would the boy act around someone else who Kanda would pretend to be more interested in than the Moyashi. Perhaps along the way the teen would start questioning why was the girl around. If Midori was someone special to the model. At that point Kanda would ask Moyashi if the girl bugged him, and if he said yes then Kanda would tell the girl to leave and that would be the end of it. The outcome of the situation would be the model finding out that the white haired male didn't like to share Kanda with anyone else. Point to his favor, the teen is possessive of him.

Instead, everything went the opposite of what Kanda had thought. The Moyashi and Midori became quickly acquaintance and had left Kanda behind. The younger male follow the girl around like a lost puppy. Yet the worst was the two holding hands through out most of the time. He dislike everything that was happening. Kanda didn't even get to spend time with the boy. He was about ready to drag his Moyashi out of that department store when something happen.

The teen and Midori approach Kanda and began to get him to try on things. The model didn't feel like playing dress-up, but the pleading look on Moyashi's face was too difficult to say no to. And that was how he ended up in the changing room.

Sighing in defeat Kanda stepped out and look around only to see Midori waiting for him. He search for the Moyashi but couldn't spot the boy. "Where's Moyashi?" Kanda said while Midori stalked towards him.

"Moyashi? Do you mean Allen-kun?" Her soft voice was starting to get on Kanda's nerve.

"Yes."

"He received a call and had to leave. He was very sorry though." The girl gaze at Kanda with lidded eyes. The ravenette knew that look very well.

Moyashi!

Apparently the boy ditched him. Kanda had never felt this angry and upset before. He turn on his heel and back to the changing room. After he was back in his clothes Kanda was ready to leave. Hunting the Moyashi down was his first priority, but there was a little problem.

"Kanda-sama, where are you going?"

He ignored the girl trailing behind him. The model was thinking about where the boy would go and who had call Moyashi? Could it be-

"Kanda-sama, would you like to eat soba with me?"

At the sudden question Kanda halt on his tracks. Where had the girl heard that? Not a lot of people knew Kanda like soba. Well his family did and a few people at work mostly three of them, but how did she find out.

"Allen-kun told me that you like soba."

Moyashi you traitor.

Kanda eyed the girl before turning away. "I to received a call while changing. I have to leave."

He made his way to his car and sat inside after he unlock the door. Now after having time to think Kanda saw things clearly. He knew what the Moyashi tried to do, but the younger male only wasted his time and efforts. Kanda only had eyes for one person alone, and that was the Moyashi himself. Everyone else didn't matter to him anymore.

Turning a corner, Kanda got out of the parking lot and hope to find the boy real soon.


A/N: Chapter nine is up! So this chapter was a bit longer. I was about to cut it in half but left it how it was instead.

I was stuck in a pickle trying to choose Lo Fwa or Rohfa. Which one is it? I don't know.

At the end I went with the first one. And yes Lo Fwa was the girl Lavi and Allen were talking about in chapter four.

I'll upload soon.

Thanks everyone for reading.

See Ya!
