It was a dark miserable world that she had lived in. Only a candle that she had found as her friends and family, doing her best not to let this candle go out, lighted her cold world. He especially knew how it felt doing whatever it took to protect what he lived for.
"It's cold out." He would say, as she would be standing alone on top of the tower. " You'll catch a cold without a jacket."
She turned around and glared at her thin clothed nightgown, then shivered. He smiled at her, and kindly offered her his cloak. Her reply was always what would be it would be rather selfish because that "Allen-kun" would be cold. Never once did he take her seriously, wrapping his cloak around her shoulders.
" Why are you always so selfish?" She asked, glaring at Allen. " You always take care of others and never think of your own well being."
He smiled, walking to the side of her, and silently replied, " I can't stand seeing someone I care about in pain. I don't think that it's selfish to make sure the people in my life don't suffer. It would hurt me ten times more if I see you or anyone I love in pain."
A hand had harshly ran past Allen's cheek.
" Don't you realize that if you feel that way, others feel the same?" Lenalee whispered as she started to tear. " We're here to help you, isn't that why we're friends? It's so selfish of you Allen-kun to take responsibility of everything."
" I'm… I'm sorry Lenalee." He had murmured silently as he still grinned. " But a night like this while you're wearing a night gown, I think you honestly need the jacket more then I do. It's rather revealing to wear outside where everyone could see you."
She silently blushed, pulling the cloak tighter around her. Her fierce glare had turned into a gentle look, silently apologizing for her previous slap. It was a cold night and she was wearing a thin layer of clothing and Allen's cloak had been so warm. She blushed once again, even harder as she asked,
" Allen-kun, are you cold?"
She had wrapped her arms around the back of his neck and pulled him in closely.
" Because we can just keep each other warm"
Of course, that night, that moment wouldn't be ensured because a loud voice yelling out soon disrupted it.
" ALLEN! I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT!!" Lavi had yelled from below of the tower. Lenalee had let go of Allen rather quickly, leaving them both blushing at the top of the tower with a happy Lavi at the bottem.
