A Helpful Occurrence
Pairing: Allen/Lavi
Allen paced up and down, tapping on his arm. His very good friend, Lenalee Lee, had arranged to meet him here by a pond. "I have something secret to tell you," she had said.
Lenalee was late, which was very unlike her. Any moment now, Allen expected to see her bounce up, her long hair streaming behind her and her huge bubbly eyes aglow.
Allen heard footsteps, but they seemed rather heavy for a delicate and happy girl like Lenalee, whose tread was gentle. He turned around and found Lavi staring at him.
"What are you doing here?" Lavi said . "I thought you said you didn't want to see me again."
Allen had said that, but now he was beginning to wish he hadn't acted so softly. "Lenalee asked to meet me here." As he gazed at Lavi, his heart began to throb.
"Oh," Lavi said, softly yet it was obvious he was upset. "I'll just go then."
"Wait," Allen said and caught Lavi by his arm. "I was wrong. I still love you. Can you ever forgive me?"
"Yes," Lavi said, smiling. They wrapped their arms around each other and kissed.
From behind a tree, Lenalee watched with a nice light in her eyes. She took a list out of her pocket, and checked off "Allen/Lavi". Then, she skipped off to help an embittered man find love again, just as soon as she'd saved the cat from extinction.
