Chapter 12: Childish Love


Allen and Lenalee held each other without making any fuss that might capture Kanda's attention. Fortunately, a woman called him by his first name. That eased the tension of being captured at that moment. Somehow, Kanda knows her. At some point, he is overjoyed seeing her after a while. With this, the two teenagers trapped in the empty locker observed and fell silent. And to begin with, they're about to get a taste about Kanda's other side.

"It's been a while hasn't it Yuu-kun?" She asked sitting down in one of the chairs. Reaching for a cup of tea, she smiled as the blue haired teenager joins her in the table. "It's funny. I didn't order anything yet. I guess the service here is superb!"

"It's because we ordered that tea!" Allen murmured while gritting his teeth and clenching his fists. He was annoyed over the fact that someone was already consuming the very tea he paid for.

"Be quiet, Allen-kun!" Lenalee whispered leaning on Allen's chest. "They might be able to hear us. Sssh!"

The mood outside soon became serious.

"Why are you here?" Kanda asked coldly. His eyes are becoming of his seriousness in life. Anyone who didn't know him well would definitely get the wrong idea. But somehow, she can look at him directly in his eyes and see past the seriousness that has harden his soul.

She said, "You haven't changed a bit, Yuu-kun. Even though I've been away for many years, your eyes are still so cold." She chuckled afterwards. "And the fact that you are asking me that kind of question is so like you, Yuu-kun."

He smiled. Allen was surprised on what he just seen, almost to the point of disbelief. He has never seen Kanda's smile, not even once. This woman is surely someone of importance person to the blue haired teenager simply by the fact that she could make him smile.

"And that smile of yours never fails to fascinate me over and over again." She complimented. "But do please tell me something, Yuu-kun..."

Her mood suddenly turned into an investigative one that made Kanda sweat drop a bit.

"Wha-what is it?"

Inhaling an enough amount of air and exhaling it on her nostrils, she asked, "Are you gay?"

WHAT THE HELL!

Kanda's eye brows twitched as he grits his teeth. He was not that happy about it obviously.

"Why did you grow your hair that long, Yuu-kun? You really look like a girl now rather than a guy! I mean, I know that your hair is usually long when we were still kids but don't you think you need a haircut?" She added taunting her childhood friend.

She follows that with a giggle.

Allen couldn't help himself not to laugh but fortunately his big mouth is covered by Lenalee's hand. They are the audience of a possible ruckus that's about to start. Nobody calls Kanda a girl and gets away with it alive. But on the contrary, Kanda didn't cause any fuss or violent reaction.

"I haven't changed a bit since you left." He replied with a serious tone. "I'm glad that we've seen each other again."

His words somehow made her heart skipped a couple of beats. With this, her face reddens. His emotions are moving her from the inside like a small pebble causing a ripple in the calm waters of her world. She smiled upon saying, "I'm glad that you said that. I'm really happy that I heard those words from you."

The two spies inside the locker were moved by the emotions that they are witnessing. They are on the verge of rekindled love. Lenalee blushed while listening to the two's words of endearment. She wanted such moment to happen someday in her life. It's every girl's dream, isn't it? Filled with their emotions, she wanted to indulge in the sweetness of love as if she is watching one of those romantic flicks.

Allen never thought that Kanda would be this soft. He never expected it. He can feel Lenalee's excitement while she holds onto his shirt and strengthens her grip on him. Since they're stuck, he couldn't do anything at all. He wasn't against what Lenalee was doing but something was bothering him. But he couldn't help it anymore. Slowly, he removes Lenalee's hands and stood silent.

The Chinese teenager couldn't infer what is on his mind. With worried eyes, she once again listened outside.

"I didn't recognize you at first because of your hair. I'm very sorry for that." He said sipping the cup of tea that Allen ordered. "When did you come back?"

She took her handkerchief and wiped her lips. She said while smiling, "I came from London yesterday. It's a good thing I found you here. I was beginning to lose hope of not seeing you again."

"What is it that you wanted to tell me?"

She fell silent for a while. Holding her handkerchief above her chest, she let out a sigh. She wasn't sure if she should tell him everything or not. But, somehow he has to know. He has the right to know and that's what she thought.

"Yuu-kun, do you still remember our promise back then when we were still kids?" She started with a sad look on her face.

"Yes, I still do. We will still be together in the end." He replied with a calmness of his voice.

"That I will wait for you forever until we're both grandmas and grandpas."

"Yes, how can I forget such an important promise? You know me, I hate people breaking promises. So if I did forget those, I would end up hating myself." He replied with his sheer determination. "I would ne~"

She cuts in.

"I guess you would hate me now." She said looking lowly at herself. "I would not be able to fulfill that promise."

He is at a lost of words.

He tried to ask why and she continued talking about it without being asked.

"You see. Many things have happened to me in the past since I left here. The distant lands have changed me in many ways as I pursue my family's dreams. And to tell you the truth... I... I'm..." She was having a hard time spilling out what she feels. "I'm engaged to marry someone back there. I'm sorry, Yuu-kun."

Like the first raindrop to touch the thirsty surface, maiden tears fall down as his eyes couldn't believe what he just heard. With this statement, the ambience shifted in a melancholic annoyance that chisels their hearts with skipping beats. Far more in the depths of their emotions, he keeps himself calm as he wipes her tears with his index finger.

"Tch. So that's why you haven't answered my letters and e-mails for almost a year, silly woman." Kanda said fighting the burning sensation inside his frostbitten heart. "You should have told me that sooner so it would not hurt me this much."

"Yuu-kun..."

"Enough! It's nice seeing you again." He replied with an angry tone. "I have to go to my work now."

He turns away and walks out with a heavy heart and a hard head to match. Deep inside, his heart is crying. After everything he's had to work for, all of it was for nothing. Slowly, he begins losing track of what he was doing. As he walks away, he never wants to look back and see her face again.

"DUMB ASS KANDA!"

A roaring voice erupted from behind like a volcano expressing its wrath. The blue haired man turns around and notices a familiar white haired guy behind him. The white haired boy is sweaty and as Kanda realized it, he knew that he was hiding inside the locker.

"Tch! What's wrong with you, moyashi?" The taller blue haired man asks the white haired bean sprout.

"How many fucking times do I have to tell you that my name is Allen?" Walker replied while clenching his fists. With his sudden move, his right hand quickly lands on Kanda's cheek. This would turn into a brawl as a crowd is gathering to view their fight.

"What the fuck did you do that for?" Kanda asked preparing to punch back before...

"It's because you just left her like that you stupid moron!"

"So you were listening after all! You should mind your own business nosy moyashi!"

"Then look who's breaking promises!" Allen shouted. "So that's just some shitty made-up agreement huh?"

"You!" He grits his teeth upon realizing what he did was wrong.

"Come on, Kanda! Grow up!"

'Tch. I hate this. I really hate these kinds of stuffs.' Kanda thought while smirking at Allen. 'Somehow this moyashi knows a few things about keeping promises.'

"What?" Allen asked while Kanda was heading back to the cafe.

A swift right hook landed on Allen's jaw causing him to get knocked out by Kanda's single blow. Kanda said, "That's for shaking the real me. Thank you very much, Allen. I guess you will never hear me calling you by your name again for this would be the first and the last."

Leaving the unconscious Allen, Kanda hurried back to the cafe. There he found Lenalee and the woman. He quickly approaches them and uttered. "You should go out and fetch that sleeping moyashi. Excuse us for we have a lot of catching up to do."

With what he said, Lenalee left the two and hurried to get to Allen.

"Troublesome friends of yours?" She asked.

"I'll have to agree with that."

Slowly, their hearts try to compensate their lost beats.

Lenalee watched over the sleeping Allen Walker on her lap. She's getting numb because it's already half an hour since she carried him along with the help of others walking around the mall. She giggled upon remembering what the people told her.

'Is he your boyfriend?'

'What a lame guy!'

'He's indeed a helpless one'

Somehow, these comments tickled her heart causing her to feel strange feelings. With a small duration of time, he is now very close to her heart. She never felt anything like this before.

"I better make him wash my hanky. It's his blood after all." She said while looking at her blood-stained handkerchief. She wiped his blood and cleaned his cheeks. It's just like a mutual thing now. No boundaries and limits. "And I wonder where Road-chan is now? It's almost 6 pm."

Then, a beep captured her attention. The sound came from Allen's phone. And after a few seconds, her phone beeped as well.

"It's from Road-chan." She said while checking her messages.

Allen, Lenalee, since I can't find you guys I decided to go home since my father was lurking around. (Stalking me again I guess.) Thanks for taking me with you and see you soon. -Road Kamelot

"That's good. I guess." Lenalee commented after reading Road's text message. "I hope he wakes up soon."

'But on second thought, I prefer to stay with him like this for a while.' She thought. 'I wonder what he's dreaming.'

(Allen's dream)

A crowd of fluffy white stuff bounced like the bouncing jelly beans in the vast and weird dream of Allen Walker. Chasing these cute bouncy stuffs that sing, Allen reaches out his hands for them.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

They sang.

"Mitarashi dangos wait for me! Please! Everyone wait for me!" He protested at the white fluffy stuff while in his wonderland. "I promise! I won't eat you!"

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

They carried on as they vanish one by one. But before they are all gone, Allen managed to swag one.

"Gotcha!" He said. "Wow, it's soft and warm. I never thought dangos are this cuddly and mushy!"

He slowly squeezed it and it felt like heaven for him.

"It's because that's my breast you pervert!"

Upon hearing this, he found himself finally awake and well, currently groping Lenalee's breast.

"Oh-oh. Let me explain, Lenalee! I was having a weird dream! I swear! I didn't mean to~"

And what did you expect. A murderous slap and chop of course occurred!

"I'm going home you pervert! Carry my shopping bags so that I can forgive you! Hurry up slowpoke!"

'Boy, I ended up holding her... Damn the author! Damn it!'

"Hey! How long will you stay there?"

"Uh. Okay! I'm coming!"

And just like that, one weird but great day ended. Time for class again!

Not far from the two, the short brown haired girl with hazel eyes watches them as they walk their way out of the mall. She felt a bit surprised about seeing them together. It makes her feel funny on the inside. Slowly, she utters who her heart is shouting out loud.

"Allen-kun?"
