Lavi had been working endlessly to complete his work he had stayed up very late many nights. To take a well deserved break Lavi went into the small town Bookman and himself lived near. He ended up convincing Bookman that they needed more food, so he was allowed to leave for up to three hours.

Sighing Lavi walked into the small town admiring the beauty of such a unique place. After walking for a short period of time Lavi was called out by someone.

"Good morning Rabi!" Lavi turned around to see a fairly short woman with blonde hair standing next to a café.

"Good morning Kathy." Lavi smiled kindly towards the blonde woman as he walked over to her.

"I haven't seen you or Bookman in a while. Been keeping busy?" Kathy smiled sincerely at Lavi.

"You know it. Gramps has been giving me heaps of work." Lavi grinned sadistically now standing next to the blonde woman.

"Must be tiering." Kathy gave a sympathetic smile while pushing a stray strand of hair out of her face.

"Yeah, hours of endless writing really takes it out of you." Lavi sighed rubbing the back of his head awkwardly.

"Good morning Rabi!" Lavi turned once again to see a teenage girl with long blonde hair and the same face structure as Kathy.

"Good morning Olivia, how have you been?" Lavi smiled warmly to the teenager putting a hand in one of his pockets.

"Good, how have you been?" Olivia kindly replied obviously well mannered. She spoke with a hint of a blush on her face as well.

"Same old same old." Lavi sighed once again shifting from one foot to another.

"Anyway, mother do you need help with the restaurant?" Olivia turned towards Kathy.

"If you could go wash the table cloths it would be a huge help." Kathy turned her head slightly to talk to Olivia.

"Ok, be back in a little bit." Olivia smiled be fore she walked off into the café closing the door to the café behind her.

"It seems as though Olivia has taken quite a liking to you Rabi." Kathy winked hoping the successor would get the idea.

"Kathy, with all due respect I would be delighted to go out with your daughter but she's just so young." Lavi used as a cover up keeping the real reason to himself.

"But she is well mannered and she has told me herself she likes you. Even if you just go on one date it would mean the world to her." Kathy pushed obviously wanting this to go through.

"I suppose I could just hang out with her the Friday after next, with her friends." Lavi spoke obviously making it apparent it was a take it or leave it deal.

"Oh she is going to be so happy once I tell her! Thank you Rabi! I promise you won't regret it!" Kathy enthusiastically jumped up and down before she ran off into the café.

"What did I get myself into..." Lavi mumbled before he continued to walk through the town.

"Hello Fou." Allen smiled warmly to Fou as she walked over to the table he was sitting at in the cafeteria.

"Hey Walker, eating four times your weight in food I see." Fou smirked sitting down with only a small noodle cup in hand.

"You know it. Any new missions coming up?" Allen asked while slurping some spaghetti noodles.

"Not that I've heard of." Fou sighed obviously bored with the topic.

Sighing along with Fou Allen groaned. "Us exorcists haven't done anything useful in the last couple months."

"I know, I've been bored out of my mind to. There's nothing I have to do since no one's been on a mission lately." Fou moaned slipping down into her seat.

"You two sure are a lively bunch." Bak sarcastically joked as he took a seat next to Fou.

"Aren't we." Fou smart mouthed back at Bak.

Sighing Allen continued to eat his monestrous sized lunch. "Bak you know of any missions coming up?"

"No, nothing at all. All Akuma readings are down to the lowest of the low. Only two mission were issued both this month and last to Kanda and Marie." Bak sighed watching Allen scarf down his meal.

"Lucky, they actually have something to do." Allen pouted while seizing his pace in eating for a brief second.

"Hey we have stuff to do here to.. Like, um. Training!" Bak thought off the top of his head.

"We've been doing that for five months." Fou groaned slouching further into her seat.

"Would you prefer us being so overwhelmed with missions that we run out of exorcists to complete the missions?" Bak glanced at Fou rasing an eyebrow.

"No." Fou mumbled admitting partial defeat.

"What was that? I couldn't hear you." Bak pushed loving to hear Fou except defeat.

"I think you heard me just fine if you ever want to see again." Fou threatened glaring at Bak.

"Wait, that doesn't even make sense!" Bak looked confused at Fou as she spoke.

"It doesn't have to." Fou mumbled resting her head on the table.

"But, I... Never mind." Bak shook his head pinching the bridge of his nose.

"You two are so perfect for each other." Allen grinned while he ate some cake.

"We are not!" They both shouted in unison. "Stop it!" They both yelled together again. Irritated they glared at each other crossing their arms they turned facing the opposite way as each other.

Allen just giggled while eating his cake. Then he thought. What would it be like to have that kind of bond with someone?

- O -

Lavi had pulled an all nighter to complete his report on Allen, now tired and drained of energy Lavi got up from his desk walking towards his bed. With Allen's diary in hand he flopped down admitting a small groan from his lips. Slowly he flipped through the pages of Allen's dairy stopping on a page which looked like it was three quarters of the way though Allen's diary. After flipping past five or so pages he stopped and began to read. Before he read the entry he mumbled to himself. "I'll read this chapter in celebration of my completed report."

October 2nd, 1887

Dear Diary,

It has been very hard here at the Asian branch the last couple of days. Trying to recover my innocence is tiering. I hope to recover it soon. Oh, I almost forgot, I was sitting thinking about everything that has been going on and Lou Fa appeared out of nowhere (Literally.) We started to talk and she said something that made me really think. What is precious to me? I started to think and this is what I came up with: my friends for they are my family, the Black Order for it is my home. Those two things are enough for me to keep moving forward. And then I got to thinking, who is precious to me? I though then came up with a few people: Lenalee? No, she is a great friend but she is not the reason I strive for. Krory? No. Miranda? No. Kanda? Hell no! Kamui? No. I could sit here and tell you all of the people that I can think of but I will just cut to the chase. I honestly think its Lavi. I know it sounds weird or crazy maybe even a bit creepy. But, there's just something about him I can't wrap my head around. For I have had mixed feeling about him for a while. However, he is a bookman and can have no feelings, and he is another man so it would be wrong. I just hope one day I can tell him how I feel before he leaves for good.

Allen Walker-

Lavi just sat taken back by what he had read. "Allen Walker, the destroyer of time, the fighter for both humans and Akuma likes me?" Lavi sat mystified. "How could I have been so stupid?" Lavi covered his face with his hand. "And now he's gone forever."

During some point Lavi had put Allen's diary back in his wooden box. As he fell asleep he started to think of one thing. Allen Walker.

- O -

"Thanks for helping me carry these boxes." Lou Fa smiled at Allen as they walked down the hall of the Asian branch.

"You're welcome, I wasn't doing anything anyway." Allen smiled at Lou Fa carrying three cardboard boxes with what he assumed to be paperwork inside.

"I just with Riki and Shi Fou would be helpful like you." She sighed repositioning her arms to make the box carrying more comfortable.

"They don't help you with this?" Allen raised an eyebrow as he glanced at Lou Fa while rounding a corner.

"Nope, it gets really annoying." Lou Fa groaned letting out a deep sigh.

"I can imagine." Allen smiled sympathetically.

As silence fell between the two Allen was the first to speak. "Lou Fa, have you even felt like you like someone as more than a friend? When they already are your friend?" Allen voice somewhat shaking.

"Yeah, why?" Lou Fa looked at Allen with hopeful eyes.

"Well, there's this person I think I might like in that sort of way, but... I know it's impossible for it to happen considering this 'friend' has left and I don't have any idea of where they are. But, I can't stop thinking about them even though it's been over a year since the last time I saw them." Allen blushed after his long winded statement.

"Oh, are you talking about Lavi?" Lou Fa spoke with what appeared to be irritation in her voice.

"Yeah, what should I do?" Allen spoke sounding very confused.

Sighing a little bit Lou Fa began to speak. "What did he make you feel like when you were around him?"

"Um, I guess he made me feel happy, wanted, liked and he made me feel like I was walking on air." Allen thought slightly before he spoke.

"Really think about if you are ready to put yourself out for finding Lavi. Think about if he would truly genuinely like you back. If your answer stays the same by the end of the week go to Bak. He should be able to get some sort of hint or clue of where Lavi is." Lou Fa smiled trying to be supportive of Allen.

"Thanks Lou Fa." Allen smiled back towards her.

"But, you have to be ready for rejection or even failure. There are no promises that you will be able to find Lavi." Lou Fa explained cautiously.

"I know, and I'm ready for anything to happen." Allen smiled in understand meant. Then he quietly whispered to himself low enough so Lou Fa couldn't hear him. " Even if it means leaving getting heart broken."

After finishing up helping Lou Fa Allen went back to his room. Once allen had gotten back to his room he decided to read a journal entry. Once Allen had sat down on his bed he started to think about what Lou Fa had said earlier.

Was he really ready to push everything aside for Lavi? Allen thought about that for a while before he began to read Lavi's next entry.

October 1st, 1887

Dear Journal,

It's been really hard over the past couple days. Everyone is struggling to get over what happened with Allen. Including me, yes I am having troubles with excepting Allen's death. I just feel so bad he had to die alone. I wish I could have been there even if I could have tried to provide that small amount of comfort. Oh well, I need to get over these feelings. I do, don't I?

Lavi Bookman. Jr-

"Lavi..." Allen whispered to himself. "I'll talk to Bak, I swear. I will do anything to make sure I can see you, even for just a moment."
