Yo! Hooray for chapter 25 and 4000 veiws! Here's Allen!
Allen- Was I really that cute as a kid... (O.o)
xXxXx
Allen-kun's eyes fluttered awake and he pulled his head up off of something. The first thought to pass through his mind was just how warm and comfortable he was. Quickly, he glanced down at himself and noticed he was covered by the white clown's soft cloak. Oh yeah, I fell asleep... A dusting of pink appeared on his cheeks at that last thought, but it wasn't his fault that he had been tired and the bed was sopleasent and soft.
Allen-kun gently pulled himself off the bed, careful not to rouse the clown. Thankfully the only response was a faint murmur. He sent a quick backwards glance at the sleeping clown before tiptoeing to the door and letting himself out into the lazy afternoon sunshine. A warm breeze tostled his rusty colored hair as he hurried to a large maple tree on the top of a hill on the outskirts of the fair ground, his and Lenalee-chan's new meeting place. Sure enough, she was leaning against the wide trunk of the tree, dozing. She was wearing a simple white dress that Mana had bought her and a pair of worn sandles. "Lenalee!"
She rubbed her eyes and looked up at the eager boy. She quickly stood up and greeted Allen-kun with a smile. They had grown to be good friends over the few monthes they had known each other, although they still hadn't revealed their secrets to each other. Allen-kun was scared of being treated as a monster by his new freind and Lenalee-chan was equally frightened of being thought insane. "Lenalee! Guess what I found out about the clown."
Lenalee-chan listened intently as Allen-kun recounted his conversation with the odd clown, although he left out the part with him falling asleep. "Each time I find out something about that guy, I end up even more confused!" Allen huffed in frustration after he finished. Lenalee-chan found his reaction funny and maybe a bit cute, but she too was annoyed by the lack of answers about that clown.
"Well let's see," she explained level headedly. "He was adopted by Mana, he gets beat up a lot, has a white cloak and always covers his left hand, much like your self."
The awkward silence followed that statment lhung ike a heavy fog. Allen-kun was looking at the ground like he was hoping it would swallow him up. Lenalee-chan however, stared straight at him, as if she could discover his secrets with will alone. "Allen. What's under your glove? Tell me."
"No," Allen-kun stated stubbornly, still staring at the ground and praying for an excuse.
"Allen, tell me!" Lenalee-chan pleaded. When Allen-kun didn't obey, she raced towards him and tried to yank off his glove. However, the momentum was too much and they both tumbled to the ground. Despite the fall, Lenalee-chan made no attempts to cease her efforts. Allen was trying desperatly to escape from underneath her, while keping his glov away and failing misberaly. The squabble became more of a wrestling match as the pair rolled down the hill. In their squabble neither Allen-kun or Lenalee-chan saw the mitten on the hillside...
