Chapter 5 - Painful Past
"What happened was..." Allen cryed more and more tears, then familiar warms hands and skinny arms (Allen had always wondered how those thin arms could carry such a heavy hammer when it grew) Wrap themselves around him
"It's okay Allen, I'm sorry for bringing up something that's upset you, you don't have to say anything, i was just concerned because you were as white as a sheet."
"No, i want to tell you Lavi, because i've never told anyone these sort of things... Is it ok if i talk to you about it?" Lavi was surprised that Allen trusted him so much to tell him about something that (he could tell) was very personal to Allen. "If it makes you feel better I will listen."
"Thank you, Lavi" Allen was turly gratful and he hadn't even said what happened yet. "A long time ago, my adoptive father, Mana Walker, died. Then, the Melienium Earl showed up and then I...he said he could...bring Mana back...and I...I..." Allen's crying made the words harder to escape his mouth.
"It's alright Allen" Lavi tried to help Allen calm down. "It wasn't you're fault, I'm know Mana's death was painful for you and you would do anything to get him back, you didn't know how akuma's were formed back then or who the Earl was." Lavi allowed Allen to cry into his chest so Allen could rid himself of this guilt. He dispised seeing Allen like this, crying, hurt, it showed that Allen was always having these burden ruin times which should be happy for him. Please smile Allen, you don't suit crying, a smile on your face makes others follow and believe in you, but when you cry, everyoe else is lost, because you are the light that always shines brightly , and i'm lost when that light fades away, when you are crying, so smile Allen, please, smile again, i never want to see you suffering, let me be what helps you rid these sufferings from you...
Allen's crying ceased and he looked up at Lavi. Before either uttered a word Allen kissed Lavi these lips are the ones that have spoken words that no one else has...such kind words... just from his lips...
Allen broke the kiss and gratefully said "Thank you, Lavi", and to Lavi delight, Allen's smile returned to his face, a smile that was free of burdens. The one who should be thanking, is me, because you returned to yourself again, that smiling Allen that's not suffering...
Allen,
Thank you.
