"We're locked in" those words echoed in her mind as she realised what was happening. She was locked in a small closet in the dark with Allen Walker. Despite how much she liked the situation she was in she couldn't help but feel depressed. They were not going to get out anytime soon. Lenalee had her sat down leaning back on the side of the closet while Allen was doing the same opposite to her.

"How are we going to get out Allen-kun?" she sighed.

"Don't worry I'll think of something". She suddenly felt reassured and relaxed.

"Soooooo…Do we have any homework?" Allen asked desperately trying to bring up a topic.

"Ahh, yea, for English and Science, although I'm not really good at English…"

"I can help you, I came from England anyway and I'll help you for science as well if you need any"

"Wow thanks" she said surprised. Allen began teaching Lenalee English while they were in the closet. After about 20 minutes she finally got the hang of it and was speaking the current sub-topic in English pretty well.

"Nice, you're getting really good at it"

"Thanks Allen-kun". Lenalee stood up stretching her arms above her head "It really helped me". Then suddenly she stepped on a coat on the floor and was slipping forward to Allen.

"Kyaa" she fell forward onto Allen in the most embarrassing position she ever knew. She was sprawled up on top of him with her knees on the floor to both sides of Allen's waist and she was sitting on Allen's stomach. Her hands were on the wall behind him. Allen was leaning backwards with only the top half of his back against the wall and the rest on the floor. He had his knees raised and his hands locked around Lenalee's waist pulling her closer to him in an attempt to catch her fall. "Err…Lenalee?" Allen whispered his face as red as a rose which was accompanied by Lenalee's red cheeks as she finally managed to open her eyes.

"Kyaaa, I am sorry Allen-kun" she pleaded but still in the same position. In fact they were both quite enjoying it but didn't have the guts to tell each other and acted as if it was a really terrible situation. She looked at Allen's gray eyes and was immediately hypnotized by them. Their eyes were locked and they were inching close and closer to each other.

SLAM!

The door to the closet swung open to reveal the face of a very angry Komui. Allen and Lenalee turned their heads to see Komui ready to shout.

"Oh crap" Allen muttered under his breath.

"ALLEN WALKER, I WILL CRUCIFY YOU FOR TOUCHING MY PRECIOUS LENALEE!" Komui shouted so loud that Allen thought that the building was rumbling.

"Ni-san don't get it wrong I just tripped" Lenalee stated quickly untangling herself from Allen's body.

"I WILL KILL AGAIN" right now Komui had a knife in his hands and was closing in on Allen. He was stuck in the closet, never more frightened before in his life, even against akuma. Lenalee jumped up and with a planted a swift kick into Komui's chin. Again.

"Don't make me tell you again ni-san!" Lenalee was now fuming.

"BUT HE WAS DIRTYING YOU WITH HIS FILTHY HANDS!" Komui pleaded.

"I tripped over him that's why, and what are you even doing here!"

"Oh I came here to tell Allen to get ready for club activities tomorrow in the afternoon, he has to choose a club remember?" Komui pushed up his spectacles calming down from his rage.

"Oh thanks, we'll discuss it tonight; you can go now ni-san"

"Bwuy, Bwuy my precious Lenaleeee" Komui sang before shooting one quick glare at Allen and heading off.

"Wow you have quite the powerful kick" Allen said in awe.

"Thanks Allen-kun, it's from my track racing" Lenalee said helping Allen up. "Well you should quickly choose a club before they're full."

"Hmm I'll think about it overnight, anyway see you in the morning, good night"

"Good night Allen-kun". They walked off to their bedrooms and went off to sleep.

"Good night Mana" Allen thought as he lay on his bed. He pulled the covers over his head and turned over to sleep.

Allen's Dream

Allen tumbled over on to the dirt floor. His hands were small and so was his body. From the reflection in the puddle next to where he lay, he had auburn hair. The path ahead was grass and dirt surrounded by trees lined parallel to the route. Allen lay there as a man in a top-hat and a suit walked up to him. It was Mana.

"Never stand still, keep on walking" he said holding his hand out to Allen. He grabbed Mana's hand and walked along skipping around. Then the dream ended.

Allen got up in his bed. Every time he had a dream about Mana he would always wake up. Instead of being happy about being able to see his foster father's face again, he is sad. It keeps reminding him of the sin he committed and how much he misses Mana. He couldn't help but let the tears roll down his cheeks. He got off his bed and reached for his short-sleeve shirt and white gloves. He didn't bother to button it up and stepped outside onto the balcony. He stared up at the sky as the wind blew at the left side of his body blowing his shirt to the side. He crossed his hands and placed them on the railings. Meanwhile Lenalee was also having a nightmare.

Lenalee's Dream

Lenalee had small body and was wearing a one-piece Chinese dress. Oh no, this was the time that her parents had died. She didn't really know why because her memory of the incident was really fuzzy. She was being dragged away, taken by the hand. Then her dream finished.

She got up seated in her bed, the covers tangled in her sweaty hands. If it wasn't for her brother being by her side all the time she wouldn't be the way she was now. She would be sad and lonely all the time. She got up and made her way to Allen's room. She stopped in front of Allen's door, hesitant in case Allen was asleep. She silently opened the door to see Allen gazing at the stars on the balcony. She tip-toed to Allen's side noticing he was crying but his expression was blank. He was just staring at the stars.

"Hello Lenalee" he said without turning around.

"Hey Allen-kun, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, whenever I have a certain dream, I always end up crying," he turned around to face Lenalee. "You look beautiful with your hair untied" he smiled wiping away his tears.

"Thanks" she flushed but stopped when she noticed something "Allen-kun? What happened to your arm?" She noticed his arm was completely black.

"Damn I forgot about this" he thought "This kind of like a birth mark" he lied. "Anyway, why are you here? Nightmares?"

"Yeah…"she replied.

"Me too, do you want to tell me about yours?" he was now leaning back against the railings.

"Okay…you probably don't know this from my brother but our parents died a long time ago" she stated biting her lips "I always have these nightmares that I am being taken away somewhere but I don't know where and I don't remember how my parents died because my memory's fuzzy". Now she had completely broken down into tears. Allen stepped forward and embraced her as her eyes widened in shock.

"I am glad you could tell me this" he whispered "Guess we have a lot in common".

"Hmm?"

"I was an orphan working for a circus and then a travelling clown called Mana arrived and was so fun to be with" He paused then continued "Mana said he was going to leave soon because he never liked staying in one place and asked me if I wanted to come. Of course I said yes and he adopted me. We had so much fun together at different circuses and as time passed by our bond was like the Earth and the Moon, inseparable." Tears came out of his eyes and rolled onto Lenalee's shoulder as she listened "Then he just suddenly died and afterwards I have nightmares almost every night which reminds me of him". He hugged Lenalee closer thanking her for listening to him. And they stood there on the balcony still in a tight embrace sharing stories for a while. He also told her about his adventures with Cross Marian his 'guardian'.

They broke apart and Allen said "Well we better get back to sleep".

"Yeah"

"Thanks for listening to me Lenalee"

"Thanks for listening to me too Allen-kun" Allen escorted her out into his room and closed the window behind him. Lenalee was about to step outside the room when she stopped.

She turned around and asked "Allen-kun can I sleep with you today?" Allen paused, his face red as a tomato.

"S-sure" He jumped on his bed and shuffled towards the wall to leave Lenalee space. She climbed in and was disappointed to see Allen was facing the wall. Little did she know that he was confused and didn't know what else to do. He then heard a shiver behind him and turned over seeing Lenalee shaking from the cold. She had her eyes closed and didn't know that he was facing her. He wrapped his right arm around her and pulled her closer. He then reached in and kissed her on the forehead. "Good night Lenalee" he whispered.

"G-Good night Allen" They were both thankful for the darkness because their faces were really red.
