Disclaimer: I NO OWN NOTHING INCLUDING D. GRAY-MAN
AN: I thank all of those who reviewed and gave me new hope! ^.^ I love all of you to pieces! Hugs and cookies for all of you! Also a few brownie points! I'm still having major writer's-steel-wall block but I'm trying my hardest!
This story will remain in third person until the end.
"AAAALLLEEEENNN!" Lavi groaned face palming himself. "You're not supposed to get grounded you dumbass!"
"It's not my fault!" Allen protested putting down his sandwich.
It was a glorious Monday and the group was sitting at their usual rounded table in the corner of the cafeteria. Kanda was, as usual, dragged there by his overly happy red headed acquaintance and strapped down by threats form his ex.
"If it's not your fault then why are grounded?" Kanda asked speaking up for the first time after being imprisoned.
"None of you're business, BaKanda," Allen scowled taking a sip from his half pint milk carton.
"He was kidnapped," Lenalee said. "By the Noah clan."
Allen groaned, "Lenalee! You weren't supposed to tell them!"
"Really?" Lavi asked suddenly excited. "Did you get to see where one of them lived?"
"Yea…" Allen said hesitantly looking at the suddenly stoked teen and raising an eyebrow.
"Which one?" he asked. "Tyki? Lulubell? Skinn? Please tell me it was Skinn!"
"It was Road's place…" Allen had a strange feeling that he shouldn't have said this because Lavi seemed to explode from excitement.
"Road!" he exclaimed in a hushed yell. "THE Road Camelot?* I Can't believe it! You got the Queen's address!"
"Kind of, I got lost coming home," Allen admitted shrugging. "It was a big, white Victorian place with a normal looking, yet well groomed, lawn."
"That's good enough for me," Lavi grinned, "You'll have to show us where it is so we can do some…damage."
"I could use a nice amount of revenge on that bitch," Lenalee nodded. "Especially after calling me trailer park trash."
"I'm just in the mood for damage," Kanda said smirking and crossing his arms.
"Why exactly do you guys hate them so much?" Allen asked.
"Well they've been bullying us ever since kindergarten." Lavi said. "With the exception of Yuu-"
"Don't call me that dammit!"
"-of course." he added ignoring Kanda's protest. "The girl's have always insulted Lenalee, and I was always shoved into lockers and stuff."
"Jeez…" Allen muttered.
"Now that we've entered high school, though, they've kind of left us alone…which I find odd. We've barley had so much as a hiccup since freshman year. Do you think they're plotting something this year now that we're seniors?" Lavi asked.
"It's likely," Lenalee said thoughtfully. "Oh god I'm in no mood to have my shampoo switched out with hair bleach, I rather like my black hair…" she trailed off.
"Christmas break is coming up!" Lavi said perking slightly trying to lighten the now gloomy mood.
"Ah, yes. Two weeks of absolutely nothing to do." Lenalee sighed happily. "I can't wait for the extra sleep."
"Nintendo all the way baby!" Lavi said pumping his fist.
"Tch," Kanda crossed his arms.
"I'm going back to New York…" Allen said staring off into space. "Then coming back on Christmas eve to open presents."
"Ooh, I've always wanted to go to New York." Lenalee said. "Why you going there?"
"Visit Mana's grave," he said, distracted. The table fell into silence at the word grave. Lenalee and Lavi's eyes met in chilled understanding. Kanda looked away crossing his arms. "Oh yea." Allen said blinking. "I'm playing a piano solo for the Christmas assembly. What are you guys doing?"
"I'm just sitting in the student section, enjoying the entertainment." Lavi shrugged, "Yuu too."
"Don't call me by my first name!" he growled eyes flashing.
"I'm singing in the choir." Lenalee said, "You probably won't get to hear me though."
"Anyway, you can play the piano, Allen?" Lavi said scooting closer to the wig clad teen.
"Yes, you didn't know that?" he asked taking a nibble out of his cupcake.
"Apparently I was supposed to," Lavi grunted crossing his arms.
"Come to think of it I didn't know that either." Lenalee said thoughtfully.
Allen felt his face fall slightly then turned on his 200 kilowatt smile, "That's okay, you guy's can hear me then."
"When is it anyway?" Lavi asked scratching his forehead moving his headband slightly.
"In a week." Lenalee said throwing away her tray in a nearby garbage can. "Pay attention to events Lavi."
"What if I don't want to?" he said throwing a smirk in her direction. "So troublesome. I'd rather just wait for the principal call us down over the intercom."
"What does our principle look like?" Allen asked randomly.
"Well, he's obese for one.**" Lavi said.
Lenalee smacked his arm causing him to wince. "He's….overly chubby that's all."
"He always sides with the Noahs that's for sure." Kanda said, "He's obese too."
The cheap intercom then crackled and a weird sounding voice came on. "Allen Walker please report to the principle's office immediately."
Allen blinked, "I didn't do anything, I wonder what they could want."
Lavi, Lenalee, and Kanda all shrugged. Lenalee spoke. "Whatever it is, deny, deny, deny. It's how we survived middle school."
Allen stood and Lavi saluted him, "Good luck, rookie."
*Did I spell her last name right?
**Can you guess who it is?
AN: Still, shorter than I would like but I got a pleasant idea for the next chapter.
AGAIN! I THANK YOU ALL FOR THE REVIEWS!
