"Butterfly. I need your help." Tyki called walking into Allen's room late one night. Lavi was asleep in bed but Allen was sitting at the table reading some notes in a journal Lavi's grandfather had made for Allen before Lavi had run off to stay with Allen. Allen looked up from the journal suddenly concerned when he saw that Tyki was holding a bundle that was likely Tyki's son.

"What is wrong?" Allen asked getting up making his way over to Tyki looking at the baby to see if it was sick.

"He has a fever and has been crying a lot. Can you help him?" Tyki asked passing Allen the baby so Allen could examine the infant. The child was fairly new born but looked so much like Tyki. Carefully Allen set the baby on the table examining it before waking Lavi up.

"What do you need him for?" Tyki demanded since he didn't really want Lavi's help.

"Lavi is far more qualified as a healer than I am. He is the grandson of the leader of our clan… He knows more than I do. You want your baby to get better…. Lavi is needed for this." Allen stated as Lavi was still waking up. Getting up Lavi went over to Allen looking the baby over. Grabbing a book Lavi showed Allen a tea to make for the princess to drink which the baby would get through breast feeding. It would take a little longer to help the baby but it was the easiest way given the age of the baby. It wouldn't be able to drink anything other than breast milk and it wasn't able to eat anything. With that done Lavi went back to bed while Allen got to work making the tea which he took to the princess and explained what to do and why.

"Thank you…. For helping my baby…" The princess said truly appreciative. She almost expected Allen to refuse assuming Allen hated her and her baby.

"Of course your highness. That's what we are here for. Now you have to drink this tea three times a day to keep it in your system as you feed your son. So I will bring it to you each time." Allen said before he left the room. In the hall Allen was stopped by Tyki who was blocking his path.

"If my son dies… so does your 'fiance'." Tyki warned making Allen actually scowl at Tyki a little.

"Lavi would not let an innocent die. Neither would I. If I saw anything odd with the ingredients I wouldn't have made it. Your baby should be fine by the end of the week. Good night your highness." Allen said moving to walk past Tyki but Tyki grabbed Allen's wrist hard. Roughly Tyki pinned Allen to the wall.

"Your highness no!" Allen protested sternly when Tyki started pulling at Allen's robes. It made sense that Tyki was pent up since his wife couldn't do anything so soon after childbirth. Not for a month or so actually. "If I can't have sex with Lavi I can't have sex with you either. We know why you set the three month period. You need to respect that too. I am just your healer not your toy anymore." Allen stated pulling away from Tyki who growled in frustration hitting the wall. Allen didn't stick around after Tyki did that.


Just as Allen promised in less than a week the baby was completely healthy and happy which made Tyki and his wife happy. Tyki might not like his wife but he loved his son. So he was happy when the baby got better. But Tyki was not happy that when the three months was up there was no sign of Allen being pregnant. So Tyki had to keep his word and let Allen and Lavi marry which actually appeased the queen and Tyki's wife. With permission Lavi and Allen left to go back to their clan temporarily so they could get married through their clan since they had their own wedding ceremony they did for clan members.

"Man I thought that old man would never shut up." Lavi said with a laugh as he and Allen made their way into their tent after the ceremony. Their tent was a little further away from the others for privacy sake. No one wanted to hear the newly wed couple on their wedding night or any night.

"I think he was teasing you. Knowing how eager you were for the ceremony to end." Allen giggled a little as he plopped down on the bed. It was been a long day. Allen was actually sore from standing all day so he took his flats off massaging one of his feet.

"Here I'll give you a massage." Lavi offered moving over to where Allen was sitting. He knelt down on the ground taking Allen's foot and started gently massaging it.

"Lavi…you don't have to do that…" Allen said even though the foot massage felt really good. Lavi simply smiled and continued the foot massage going from the first foot to the other. The foot massage progressed to a leg massage which progressed to stripping Allen and giving him a full body massage which Allen just loved. After the massage Lavi stripped himself down before climbing into bed with Allen who wrapped his arms around the other.

"Hi." Lavi greeted softly with a smile as he hovered over Allen holding him close. Allen's hands were gently rubbing Lavi's upper back.

"Hi." Allen replied laughing a little as he stared up at Lavi. Right now Allen felt like he had made the right choice picking Lavi over Tyki. Yes Tyki was a prince and had showed some affection for Allen…but Lavi showed far more affection for Allen and never forced himself on Allen out of stress like Tyki had. Leaning down Lavi gently kissed Allen was as much love and affection as he could. The night was spent making sweet tender love.

"Ali…. Do you want to top…?" Lavi asked some time later as the two were laying in bed facing each other. Lavi's hand was gently running up and down Allen's side as Allen was resting his head on Lavi's arm.

"What?" Allen asked looking to Lavi confused. Why would Lavi ask that sort of thing?

"Do you want to top? Be the one penetrating instead of being penetrated? If you do that's okay… I don't want you to feel like this isn't equal. I want you to be happy." Lavi said now playing with Allen's hair as he studied Allen's angelic face.

"No… I don't want to… Do you want me to?" Allen asked having no desire to be the one on top as Lavi explained. But if Lavi wanted to switch things up for pleasure then Allen would do it. Maybe.

"To be honest….no I don't. But like I said I want to be fair to you and what you want. If ever you do….you can tell me." Lavi said before giving Allen a light gentle kiss. With that discussion over the two settled down to get some sleep.


"So how was your 'wedding'?" Tyki asked when he found Allen in the garden a few days after Lavi and Allen's wedding. Allen setting the berries he was picking in a basket before he stood up looking at Tyki.

"It was really good. How is your son?" Allen asked knowing by how Tyki said wedding that Tyki didn't really approve of it or accept it as a legitimate thing.

"He is doing rather well. Very strong. He is crawling around now." Tyki answered watching as Allen knelt back down on the ground resuming his berry picking. "Where is your 'husband'?" Tyki asked looking around not seeing Lavi.

"He is right over there." Allen said pointing over to some slightly taller plants and such but Tyki didn't see Lavi. "He's laying down but he is there. Right Lavi?" Allen added so Tyki didn't think Allen was crazy or that Allen was alone. All of a sudden a hand with a book popped up to show that Lavi was actually over there.

"Ah. I see. Why are you doing all the work?" Tyki asked kneeling down beside Allen watching his pale nimble fingers work.

"I'm not really. I like doing this. This is what I did with the clan too. Its calming to me. And Lavi is studying new things the clan has recently learned while he was away.

"Hm…." Was all Tyki said before he just knelt there watching Allen for a while. Lavi of course was keeping an eye on Tyki but he didn't make it too obvious from where he was. Lavi didn't trust that Tyki wouldn't try anything with Allen even though Allen was married now. Clearly Tyki held no respect for marriage since he used to be having an affair with Allen before and was probably having affairs with other people currently. Lavi would bet anything that if he hadn't been there in the garden with Allen, Tyki would have probably tried to seduce Allen of force himself on Allen. At this point Lavi didn't think Allen would willingly be with Tyki.
