"Kanda…" Allen moaned as Kanda licked the bottom of Allen's lip. Allen leaned in eagerly, connecting their lips in a wild, passionate kiss; just like the ones of the past. Both of Kanda's hands were on Allen's waist, exploring eagerly, and Allen's hands were tangled in Kanda's hair. They were both so engrossed with their current task at hand, that they hadn't even noticed the creaking of the front door opening.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TWO DOING?" Allen and Kanda looked up regretfully from each other.

"Fuck, Damn it! Shit…" Kanda began a swearing fit in Japanese. Meanwhile, Allen was too shocked to move. He was positioned on Kanda's lap, straddling him, with his hands thrown around his neck; not exactly what his girlfriend wanted to come home to.

"L-L-Lena-l-lee…" was all Allen could manage. He had been so stupid, getting caught up in the moment with his old lover. That was right, his old lover. He had just thrown the last three years of trying to forget about Kanda, and let him reenter his life. Allen looked down flushed. How could he have forgotten that this wasn't even really his apartment? It was theirs, and more of hers at that. They had tricked her older brother, Komui into buying it for them. When he had found out they were dating he had been furious. Allen shivered as he remembered the violent attacks he had undertaken from Sir Komlin, Komui's series of terrifying robots. Thanks to his exorcist skills; however, he had survived…barely.

"HELLO? Earth to Allen!" Lenalee was beyond pissed off. This was the last straw. She never wanted to see Allen's lying, cheating face again. "L-E-A-V-E, leave. Now. I'll give you ten minutes to gather your stuff and get out of here. If you are one second over, I will call Komui and inform him of the situation." Allen couldn't help but grimace. He knew he wouldn't be forgiven, be he had not expected her to be so harsh.

"I'm sorry." Allen muttered as he got up to gather his belongings.

"I can't believe you have the nerves to apologize Allen! I HATE YOU! I hate you so much and that damn fake smile of yours too. All these years, I've loved you. Every day I came home, excited to see you, but something was always on your mind. I thought you loved me too, yet you refused to tell me anything. Do you have any idea how frustrating that was? Oh well, I guess I know what it was now. It was K-k-k" She couldn't say it. She couldn't believe her boyfriend had cheated on her, and with another guy at that. She hung her head and began to sob. Her life was ruined with the simple opening of a door. If only Kanda had never returned! "H-h-hurry up A-A-Allen, I never want to see your fucking face again!" With this, she shoved past Allen and Kanda, who were now standing, and dashed into the bathroom slamming the door closed behind her. She fell to the ground and continued to sob, inwardly hoping that Allen would come in to try and comfort her. He never came.

Allen stared at Kanda. Sure, he had wanted to see Kanda again, but couldn't it have gone differently than this? Kanda had no memory of anything, including Allen, they had been walked in on by his girlfriend who threatened to call Komui on him, and now he was practically homeless. The option of going back to Cross's house just didn't seem to appeal to him though. Maybe Lavi would let him move in?

"Why are you standing around Moyashi? Shouldn't you be packing up your stuff like the girl instructed?

"It's Allen, and she has a name you know." Allen mumbled as he walked back to their shared bedroom to pack up his stuff. It didn't take him long, but he didn't want to leave with things left like this. He decided to write a note. It read as follows:

Dear Lenalee,

I understand you do not wish for my apology, but I truly mean. There are no words in this world to

describe my sorrow in having done this to you. Even if I didn't love you in the way you wanted me to,

that does not mean I did not love you. I hope that in time we will be able to patch up our broken

relationship, and mend it into a strong friendship. I truly do feel awful doing this to you; I was just

shocked when I met Kanda. I suppose I really never did get over him. I know your forgiveness is too

much to ever hope for, but maybe we can talk someday. Until next time~

Love,

Allen

He laid it on the dresser, picked up his bag, and left the room. He was surprised to see that Kanda still stood in the living room.

"What are you going to do now Moyashi?" Kanda asked in a seemingly harsh voice.

"I don't know. I don't know anything anymore. I finally found you, but you remember nothing. We finally embraced again, but then Lenalee walked in." Tears began to fall down Allen's face. "I just want my old life back! I mish our high school days!"

"I'm sorry." Kanda replied, not knowing quite what to say or do. Comforting people had never been one of his strengths.

"No, you're not. You remember nothing! How could you be? You even forgot me, your boyfriend!" Allen yelled back, and pushed by him crying. He began to sprint to door, but was caught at the wrist by Kanda.

"What baKanda? What can you possibly say now?"

"..."

"Yeah, that's what I thought." Allen twisted out of Kanda's grip, and ran out of the door; free at last. The funny thing was, never had he felt more chained down on his life. He had nowhere to go. Wasn't this wonderful? He began to walk down the busy street, yearning for tears; tears that never came. He tuned out the street vendors, the giggling girls he passed, and the damn annoying Usagi… wait… where? Allen turned his head and shouted in surprise.

"AAAAH! Lavi?" The red-head turned around, eyes widening.

"Moyashi-chan?" Lavi began to smile. "It's really you! I haven't seen you for like forever!" He engulfed Allen in a huge bear hug.

"Not you too!" Lavi raised an eyebrow.

"What do you mean, somebody else is giving you troubles with nicknames?" There's no way… Thought Lavi, It couldn't be him, could it?

"Oh… Nevermind…" Allen stumbled. He couldn't tell Lavi, not if he ever wanted him to speak to him again. "...anyways… is there any way I can stay with you for a while?"

"Why?"

"Oh…well…umm… Haha…"

"Just fucking say it already!"

"Okay, okay! Well… you see… Lenalee and I kinda sorta broke up…" There, he said it.

"WHAAAAT?" Lavi couldn't believe it. He had always thought they were very close, not that he ever saw them…unless something happened… "What happened?"

"I'd rather not say." Allen replied gravely.

"Okay! Sure Moyashi-Chan, you can stay with me!" Lavi smiled then grabbed Allen's hand and dragged him all the way back to his apartment.

20 Minutes later…

"We're here!" Yelled the very excited Lavi.

"Yay." Allen cheered half-heartedly. Maybe this wasn't a good idea…

"Go ahead and unpack. You can have the room farthest down the hall to the left. Allen thanked him and went to unpack his few items, thinking about a certain raven-haired samurai.
