"You think...I'm what?" He was gobsmacked, staring at her as if she just dropped a bomb on the train.

"I-I..." Lenalee didn't seem to be able to take her words back. Maybe because it was the absolute truth and what she thought. She stuttered a little more, spitting out ramble, "I didn't mean...I mean...lik--sexy?"

He sweatdropped.

"NO I me—se—smexy!" Even worse.

"Lenalee...?" Allen sighed.

"Yes?" She squeaked.

He held her chin up with his right arm, looking directly into her eyes with a grimace. Something about this grimace seemed make her heart fall to the bottom of earth. It was as if he knew something. He opened his mouth, stopping midway.

"Ah the train stopped!" She interrupted, jumping from her seat and peering out the open window.

There at the very front, was where the remains of the tracks that were supposedly destroyed by Lavi's abnormally powerful hammer. The area was entirely green as unfortunately the tracks where in the middle of a forest. Luckily it was still the afternoon as the sun shone brightly above their heads with the trees barely allowing the sunlight in.

"A bit too much force there..." A familiar voice spoke.

"My bad...I didn't mean ta destroy the whole thing!" Another familiar voice yelled.

"Yeah, you didn't mean to completely obliterate a train carriage and smash the train tracks along with it!"

With a sigh of relief, Lenalee jammed open the window and waved at the red-head exorcist and newcomer, "Lavi! Iori!"

Allen and Lenalee scurried right off the train and walked quickly towards the two stranded exorcists. As they approached, Allen as usual, slid backwards over a pile of dead leaves and hit his head hard on the edge of a hard rock and was knocked out cold. Typical clutz. Lavi gawked, sweatdropping in the process. Iori just didn't know whether to stand there thinking the boy was really uncoordinated or just plain stupid.

"Allen you alright!?" Lavi yelled, panicking.

"Allen-kun!" Lenalee cried, shaking him back and forth.

Hours had passed as Allen still lay there unconscious. As he did, he began seeing a bright dim light and the sudden appearance of Timcanpy flying around.

Allen. He spoke.

Who's there...?Allen replied feeling dizzy.

It's me. Timcanpy replied.

TIMPCANPY!? YOU CAN TALK!? And why do you sound like master!?

No you're just dreaming.

He felt like a lunatic, dreaming about a talking Timcanpy, but went along with it anyway.

I'm going to tell you something that will happen tonight. Timcanpy took a deep breath and brushed his tail across Allen's face. You will hurt someones feelings, you will hurt them really badly. Infact you will hurt them so bad that I have this urge to slap you in the face right now.

Allen was having a very odd dream right now, but something about those words had a tone of warning. A warning like he should be careful and think.

Have you ever loved someone? Timpcanpy asked, crossing his tiny arms.

Of course, I love all my nakama and I love Mana...

No you beansprout I mean the love of a man and woman!

Allen hesitated for a moment, thinking of any possibilities. Then shook his head, although with a hint of regret in his facial expression.

No, I never thought about it...

I see. Then I guess I'll be seeing you in another dream.

What?

Before he could following Timcanpy into the dim light, a mitarashi dango had appeared before him. He immediantly and stupidly took a bite.

"OUCH, HE'S BITING ME, GET HIM OFF!" Lavi yelled as Allen awoke from his strange dream.

"Mitarashi dango..." Allen mumbled.

Lavi swung his arm about causing a dazed Allen to land right on top of Iori. Lenalee flushed furiously, clutching her fists together.

"Well...you're awfully attracted to me..." Iori smirked.

Allen was fully awake now as he pushed himself off her, "I'm sorry!"

Lavi was whimpering at the bite marks Allen had left on his arm. Allen stood up and looked around at the two trains stopped midway. A team of mechanics were repairing the tracks as the other employees and passengers stayed inside the carriages provided with cups of warm soup. He glanced at the pouting Lenalee.

"They say it'll take until tomorrow to repair the tracks" Lavi sighed.

Allen slumped down on the floor, leaning against a tree, and rubbed the lump that had developed from the fall, "Lavi, where's the rest?"

"Our carriage broke off and just before we collided into the train I kinda went overboard and destroyed the track aswell as the carriage" He chuckled.

"Smart" Allen sweatdropped.

While the two were enjoying their time bonding after a few hours of seperation, Iori shuffled over to Lenalee and sat beside her. Sitting next to Iori never felt safe, so right now Lenalee had a very bad feeling. Thankfully it was a false alarm, Iori had started a simple conversation about the Order asking about the people, Innocence and the Millennium Earl whom was explained in the process. It was getting dark as the sun set and the twilight glowed among the trees. Most of the passengers had fallen asleep aswell as the workers. A fire had been lit in the center, courtesy of Allen, and it flickered brightly in the dark night. Occasionally a twig or leaves would be thrown in. Lavi of course fell asleep long ago, snoring away alongside Iori whom was lying beside him with her shoe on his face.

Lenalee was now sitting next to Allen, leaning on a large and thick tree as they chattered away about their daily routines. It wasn't long until she started rubbing her eyes tiredly and blinking much more than usual.

"If you're tired you can rest your head on my shoulder" Allen offered with his usual smile.

"Yeah...thanks" She replied, too tired to refuse. It was a good thing Timcanpy wasn't around to spread the news to Komui.

As she rested her head on his right shoulder as Allen stared at the blazing fire, concentrating on every spark that flew out. Something was on his mind. His melancholy look felt heart aching, his eyes were hurt in a way. He threw a twig inside the flame and without turning his head as he spoke softly, so soft it sounded like a whisper, "Lenalee..."

"What?" She replied, her eyes almost completely closed.

"You know...today...while I was resting...?" He asked.

She flinched, recollecting the desperate feeling she failed to contain. The desperate feeling of touching his sweet, beautiful face. She snapped out of it, "Yes"

"Well..." He hesitated for a moment, his face with a pained expression, "Why did you...kiss me?"

She froze in horror. Her eyes body ached and remained tired, but her mind was shocked. From the minute she held his face and failed to contain the urge to meet his lips, he was awake. Wide awake and there to experience the every movement of Lenalee's hand and fingers touching every inch of his cheeks. Even the soft feel of her lips, but her body refused to listen to her, she didn't budge from her current position. She was falling unconscious and fast.

She mumbled as she started to drift into a dream, "It's because..."

He leaned his head against her soft hair, the pained expression still remained. He waited.

Lenalee closed her eyes, drifting off into a deep sleep, "I love you...Allen"

He frowned slightly and bit his bottom lip, "I'm sorry...I don't love you..."

The last thing Lenalee remembered was the feel of her eyes watering and Allen's whisper.

"I'm sorry"


Once again, my apologies for the short chapter. I am so sick of Maths...

Pre... "Will you stop looking at my butt!?"
