Allen shut his eyes tight as he placed his palms together, praying.
From a distant, a meteor could be seen in the dark sky.

Chapter 9 - Choice
.
Kanda Yuu stood by his balcony, staring at the night sky.
Those nightmares bothered him.
A lot.
He couldn't even go back to sleep after them.
His eyes then caught something flying down from the sky.
Is that a... Shooting star?
He once heard that if one wished a wish when he or she saw a shooting star, their wish will come true.
Was it true?
Or was it a myth?
He placed his palms together, and closed his eyes...
"No, Yuu!"
Lavi ran to his side and slapped his hands apart.
He stared at Lavi funny. Why was the baka usagi so panic about him making a wish upon a star?
Sure it sounds stupid, but no harm done by trying.
Right?
He opened his mouth, wanted to ask Lavi what was going on, but before he could voice out anything, Lavi interrupted him.
"The heck are you doing, Yuu!?" Lavi stared at Kanda in a terrified expression.
"What? And what did I say about calling me by my first name!?" Kanda knew something was off.
But what was it?
"Never mind that! Tell me, what were you thinking?"
"I was just praying." Kanda said, making sure to highlight the word "praying".
"Praying? When you see a meteor? Are you insane?"
"Didn't you heard that wishing a wish when you see a shooting star, your wish will come true, baka usagi?"
"Oh My Gosh. Can't you differentiate the difference between a shooting star and a meteor?"
"They are the same thing."
"They are NOT!" Lavi shouted.
Kanda was taken aback by Lavi's outburst.
What in the world caused the baka usagi to act that way?
He might be wrong thinking that a shooting star and a meteor were the same thing but wasn't Lavi's behaviour weird?
Lavi didn't need to shout.
"... Didn't you know what will happen if you wished a wish when you see a meteor?" Lavi asked.
"...what will happen?"
"Your will get the things that are opposite to what you wished for."
Okay.
Now that was weird.
Things that are opposite to what you wished for?
Does that mean...
"It means that instead getting what you wished to get, you get the thing you feared the most." Lavi answered as he saw Kanda's confused face.
Silence took over.
Deciding to break the silence, Kanda questioned, "So, what brings you here?"
Lavi took that book out from his bag and handed it to Kanda.
"This."
Kanda stared at the book a while before taking it.
"What's this shit?" Kanda asked as he flipped the book opened.
Before he could read any of the words inside, Lavi slammed the book close.
"What the hell?"
"Yuu, I'm giving you this book now for your future use. You can't read it now."
"And when will this "future" be?"
"When you realise that kid's real appearance."
Kanda glared at Lavi.
"You" Kanda pointed at Lavi, "...were the one who told me to get away from him and now what? Getting to know him? What's next, murdering him?"
Lavi flinched slightly at the word "murder" but decided to let it go.
"That kid's current appearance is not his real appearance. You have to make him trust you enough to show you his real appearance willingly. If you forced him, everything's over, got it?"
"No." Kanda said as he crossed his arms.
"..What?"
"That kid can hide his appearance for all I care. Why should I know about him anyway?"
"The choice is all yours, Yuu. Choose wisely. If you happened to find out more about him, remember what I just said, never pushed it further."
"...Fine."
.
.
He saw him again.
This time, he looked more depressing than usual.
No, Kanda Yuu was NOT stalking a certain bean sprout.
He was just curious.
Or so he thought.
He noticed the bandages on Allen's hands.
They kept on increasing.
Especially on the wrist.
And somehow, Kanda felt the urge to get near Allen Walker, to know him better, to understand him better, to...
Be near him and protect him from danger.
Not like Kanda will say the last one out loud.
.
"Oh God, the school was on fire yesterday! Remember the hut behind our school? What left was ashes!"
"On fire? Who did that?"
"No one knows. The teachers are investigating it now."
"Who's the main suspect?"
"Allen Walker."
.
There it goes again.
Rumours everywhere.
Why is everyone blaming on moyashi again?
.
"It must be him."
"Who?"
"Allen Walker."
"Reason?"
"His bandaged arm. He must have injured his arm when he burned the school, that's why he's hiding it!"
"A student saw him changing his bandage and saw his bandaged arm was...was... a burned arm!"
A burned arm?
Was that why he hide his arms from everyone?
Kanda sneaked a glance at Allen and saw the brown-haired teen staring into space, totally ignoring what the others said about him.
Hurt were visible in his black eyes.
No one realised.
No one.
Except Kanda.
Without second thoughts, Kanda just get near to Allen and did what he never thought he will do.
He let Allen Walker entered his world that he usually block people out.

A/N : I searched up google search to double confirm my knownledge about meteor but I ended up finding that meteor and shooting stars are the same... but they are NOT! A meteor only appears once every 65 years while shooting stars are like...random! By the way...I'm running out of ideas... This story started with a random and incomplete plot in my head and now... Maybe I should start planing the whole plot for this story... When I have time... Tired...gonna *yawns* sleep...
R&R...please...*fell asleep*
