Okay here is the next chapter! Somehow I found the time to upload this but I might not be as lucky with the next chapter so, just a heads up!

"Thanks for helping me clean up" Allen smiled as he carried plates in his arms followed by Lavi who was carrying two trays of silverware.

"Don't mention it" Lavi grinned as he followed Allen in to the kitchen. "Do they usually leave you here all alone to clean up the mess" Lavi asked as he set the trays of silverware down on the counter.

"Ya, it gets really annoying" Allen set the plates he was carrying down on the counter next to the silverware Lavi was carrying.

"I can imagine" Lavi smiled awkwardly.

"You have no idea" Allen grimaced.

"Well thanks a lot Lavi! I'm just going to change really fast, could maybe turn on the dishwasher for me?" Allen asked.

"Ya, I can do that" Lavi smiled.

"Thanks, it's already loaded up with dishes so if you could just fill it up with soap then turn it on. The soap is on the cabinet behind you" Allen smiled as he walked out of the kitchen.

"Okay, that sounds easy enough" Lavi talked to himself. He then opened the cabinet behind him pulled out the soap and filled up the dishwasher as he turned it on. "Easy as cake" Lavi mumbled as he walked out of the kitchen and walked towards a door that had dark letters written on it that said Locker room. He then walked in.

"Hey, Allen I'm done with the dishwasher, you rea-" Lavi started to talk but was shocked by Allen who was shirtless, he noticed his left arm was the color of blood all the way from his fingertips to his shoulder.

"L-Lavi" Allen choked as he looked at the surprised red head in front of him.

"Oh my god" Lavi whispered through his hand that was over his mouth as he spoke.

"Pl-please don't tell anyone! I'll do anything just please don't tell anyone..." Allen grabbed his shirt out from his locker and put it over his left arm first to cover it, then he started to cry. "Please" Allen stuttered by his tears that he was choking back.

"Does it hurt" before Allen could respond he found Lavi right in front of him.

"N-no" Allen let a few tears run down his cheeks, "I-I was just born like this. Please don't tell anyone."

"Don't cry, I won't tell anyone" Lavi took a step closer to Allen then unexpectedly pulled the crying teen into his arms. "Shhhhh" Lavi tried to sooth Allen as he gently stoked his white soft hair.

"You don't find it disgusting" Allen pulled himself out of Lavi's grip and looked up at him with his tear stained eyes.

"No" Lavi warmly smiled at Allen.

"Really?" Allen asked as he wiped his eyes.

"Really" Lavi smiled as he ruffled Allen's snow white hair.

"Thank you Lavi, for being a great friend" Allen beamed "I mean it."

OoOoOoOoO

"Hey Allen" Lavi looked down at the shorter teen as they walked out of the restaurant.

"Ya Lavi" Allen looked back up at Lavi.

"This spring break I'm going to the beach with a group of friends. And I was wondering if you might want to come" Lavi asked Allen as they walked down the sidewalk.

"Y-you want me to come with you to the beach?" Allen looked at Lavi surprised.

"Ya, It'll be really fun" Lavi smiled cheekily at Allen.

"Then how can I say no" Allen smiled.

"Really" Lavi looked a little surprised he was expecting a "sorry busy" or a "I don't like to ocean."

"Yes really, you said yourself it would be fun so why no?" Allen grinned up at the red head.

"Great" Lavi exclaimed throwing his arm around Allen "it'll be a wonderful time."

"Lavi" Allen slowly said as he looked down at the ground.

"Hmm?" Lavi looked down at the younger teen.

"Thank you" with that a single tear dripped down Allen's cheek. "You really are a true friend."

For once Allen had found someone who he trusted and who truly liked him for who he was.
