Hitomi lay on her bed and thought about all the people who tried to help her. She couldn't help feeling guilty about what she did to Van. She had tried to think of good reasons why that kiss wasn't her fault but she still felt guilty.

"Allen" she whispered into the lonely night. 'Why did I tell him to leave? Do I love him? I shouldn't have told him to leave. I don't want to be alone.'

Hitomi slowly got up and walked to the door.Her hand hesitated on the door knob but she invitably turned it. Peaking around the door before she steped out she saw only an empty hall. She walked down the hall towards Allen's room. When she got to the door she reached for the door realizing her hand was shaking. She lightly knocked door then waited. When she didn't hear anything she turned around to walk back to her room. Just when she turned around she heard a door opening. She turned back to the door to see Allen standing there staring at her. "I couldn't sleep". Hitomi was so embarrassed she had turned bright red and was staring at her feet. She was half hopping Allen wouldn't answer the door. Allen smiled and gave her a hug.

"Do you want me to walk you back to your room?"

"Can I stay with you?"

"Of course" Hitomi walked into Allen's room still a little embarrassed. When she and Allen entered the room they walked over to the bed to sit. But Hitomi didn't sit. She just stood there staring off in to space. When Allen realized Hitomi was not sitting he stood up immediately. "Hitomi are you all right?"

"…What? Oh yah I'm fine."

" Do you want to sit and talk or go to sleep?"

" Lets go to sleep. I'm tired." Hitomi and Allen laid down to go to sleep. Allen with his arm lay across the bed and Hitomi lying in nook between his arm and his torso fell asleep. The feelings of guilt and emptyness quickly leaving her.

The next morning Hitomi woke up and found Allen at her side. Hitomi grogly slipped out of the bed. She looked out on to the balcony to see Allen looking off to the town. She noticed her leg was a little cramped when she tried to walk. When she got to the balcony Allen still hadn't noticed her. She gave him a little hug from behind. A smile spread a cross each of their faces.

Allen turned around and bent down on one knee opened a small box revealing a ring it was the most beautiful ring Hitomi had ever seen. The diamond was in a square cut but it wasn't a diamond at all. The rock turned a blue green in the light. "Will you marry me?" Hitomi was struck with aw. She didn't know what to say. She had dreamnt of marrige since she was atleast three, but never did she think it would come so soon.

"You don't have to answer yet. I have to take the Vion to Fried and I will be back in a weeks time. All I ask is when I'm back for you to have your answer. Just know that I love you more than anything and everything. I can't stand not being with you.You have become everything I want and need to survive."

Hitomi could only look down at Allen.

'No I never expected this. If I say yes then I will never know what could have happened between Van and I. At least I have time to think about this.'
