In the previous chapter

Kanda slipped his hand out of Allen's pocket. Allen looked at the man's hand and saw his key. He looked up at Kanda again, "What are you going to do with my-" Allen was unable to finish his words as he felt his body falling. "Ouch!" Allen fell on the floor. The door where his back was leaning a while ago was now opened by Kanda. He looked at Kanda who was currently looking down at him. Allen looked away; a dark shade of pink was on his face. Kanda stood there looking at him, smirk forming on his lips.

Lost (chapter 2) Yullen

Kanda threw the key to Allen, "at least remember where your own room is," he said then walked away.

Allen quickly stood up and walked out of his room. He turned to see the Japanese man, "Kanda!" he shouted. Hearing the voice of the bean sprout, Kanda stopped walking but did not turn around; he just waited for what the other had to say. "T-thank you!" Allen said.

Kanda was stilled for a moment, but then replied "tch" and he continued walking. A little smile was formed on his lips.

After hearing Kanda's 'tch', Allen went back quickly to his room, slammed the door behind him, a loud 'BAM' echoed his empty room. He threw himself to bed.

Aghhh! That baKanda, he was making fun of me! He helped me so he could see how hopeless I am… I'll get my revenge tomorrow.

Allen faced the ceiling. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes, "Kanda," he whispered.

Kanda… Kanda… Kanda… Kanda…

Allen opened his eyes and slapped himself hard.

Why am I thinking of Kanda? … Get Kanda out of my mind… Get Kanda out of my mind… Get Kanda out of my mind… get him… get out… I can't get him out of my mind!

"Kanda…" he whispered again, closing his eyes, image of Kanda was formed in his mind.

You're so beautiful… it would have been better if I was the one you love… instead of Lenalee.

Allen opened his eyes wide, shocked at what was going on in his mind. A dark blush was formed on his cheeks. He rolled over the bed and buried his face on his pillow, eyes closed tightly.

Kanda was comfortable being alone with Lenalee. They look good together… like a couple.

Allen opened his eyes once again. He threw his pillow and sat on his bed. He moved his knees up and wrapped his arms around it. He rested his face there.

Impossible… they're not a couple. They're definitely not… or that is what I want to believe… but they were so close earlier. Maybe they really are lovers… why am I so jealous anyway?

Allen felt a bit sad at the thought. He got his pillow and lay on his bed. He hugged his pillow tightly and closed his eyes, "Kanda…" he whispered weakly.

FF Morning

Allen opened his eyes lazily when he heard loud knocks on his door. "Ughhh…" Allen breathed.

Just when I was about to fall asleep… I didn't realize it's morning already. Curse you, Kanda. I'll make you play poker for my revenge.

Allen slowly walked to the door and lazily opened it. Lavi was there expectedly.

"Good morning, Allen!" it was no surprise for Allen to see the red-haired guy so early in the morning. He was always fetching Allen because for God knows, Allen's always lost.

"Good morning~" Allen greeted with a gloomy face.

"What's up, Moyashi? You're not excited for breakfast?" Lavi asked, "I was knocking for almost 15 minutes," he continued.

"I'm sorry… I wasn't able to sleep… and don't call me Moyashi," Allen sighed.

They made their way to the room where delicious food are cooked…yeah, Allen's favorite place. As they entered the room, Kanda was on his way out. Allen saw him-the reason why he wasn't able to sleep last night. Kanda saw Allen but quickly looked away irritated, ignoring the bean sprout completely.

"Oi, baKanda!" Allen shouted, stopping Kanda from walking.

"Tch, I'm in a bad mood, Moyashi," Kanda said coldly.

With this answer, Allen walked to Kanda and grabbed the taller man's coat drawing Kanda closer to him. He glared at Kanda, "You, you're a bastard, Kanda!" Allen shouted at him.

Kanda didn't say anything. He just glared back at Allen intensely causing the white-haired boy to shiver a little. "Tch," Kanda pushed Allen away and walked out of the room.

Allen felt a stab in his heart and frowned painfully. Lavi saw this. "Allen, you know Yuu is in a bad mood every morning, right?" he said.

"Yeah, and you know that Kanda and I always fight whenever we see each other," Allen replied.

"Y-yeah," Lavi said, a single drop of sweat falling on the side of his cheek. Does he really want to fight Kanda? "Anyway, Allen, let's eat, hehehe," Lavi laughed nervously.

They sat and placed the food they requested on the table. Lavi got the normal amount of food which normal people would eat while Allen got a large amount of food but it isn't as large as what he normally eats, fewer than usual, but still, so many. Allen started eating, slower than he usually does but still fast.

Great! I wasn't able to sleep last night because of him, and now what? He's telling me that he's in a bad mood? Shouldn't I be the one in a bad mood? And here I was, so happy to see him. How dare he glare at me like that? If he's that irritated because of helping me yesterday, then it's better if he did not. It's really painful to know that just by seeing my face, he would be pissed. I bet he's with Lenalee again. I'm kinda jealous.

Allen frowned, "what am I thinking?" Allen stopped eating and started slapping himself.

"A-Allen? You okay?" Lavi asked.

Allen completely forgot the existence of Lavi. "Oh… hehehe… yes… just waking myself up," Allen replied one sweat dropping on the side of his cheek.

Kanda walked through the hallways of the HQ. Irritation was obvious on his face. His killing aura was spreading and the scientists who happened to pass the same hallway avoided bumping into the Japanese man. Of course, they do not want to die in a merciless way.

Damn that Moyashi. I was just about to look for him because I came earlier to the dining room than him- which is unusual, he always comes first. I thought he was lost again. But then, he came with Lavi. Didn't he get the meaning of what I did to him yesterday… or did he want to make me feel jealous?… he did that on purpose, damn Moyashi… the rabbit and the Moyashi always eat breakfast together. Those two… are they lovers?

Kanda felt a stab in his heart. He didn't realize that thought 'til now. Allen and Lavi are lovers. And all this time, he had hopes of having a chance to be with Allen… Kanda felt how his heart broke into pieces.

Kanda continued walking. He had a gloomy expression on his face. He found a place where there are no people around. He leaned his back to the wall.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Kanda whispered to himself.

Too focused on his thoughts, Kanda didn't see Lenalee coming. "What's wrong, Kanda?" Lenalee asked as she walked near to him.

Kanda looked at Lenalee. He put back his usual face. But Lenalee knew that there was a problem. After all, Kanda didn't realize that she was coming, which means he had let his guard down.

"It's Allen, isn't it?"

Kanda only looked away, crossing his eyebrows. He didn't want to be hurt more than he already was. "It's nothing," he replied.

Lenalee knows that Allen is the only one who can trouble Kanda like this. "Oh come on, I always come to you when Leverier is here. You can do the same when it comes to Allen," Lenalee reassured.

"Tch," Kanda didn't look at Lenalee but started talking anyway, "He and Lavi are together," Kanda said almost like a whisper. He didn't want Lenalee to hear it.

Lenalee was taken aback at the statement, "how can you say that?" Lenalee asked.

"They eat meals together. Lavi is always gentle to Allen. He never hurts him. He's cheerful. He's always there for Moyashi while me…" Kanda gulped.

Lenalee looked at Kanda. He looked like he was going to cry with the painful look on his face (but it's Kanda we're talking about, he will never cry).

"Completely the opposite, it's only natural for him to love Lavi instead of me," he said closing his eyes.

Lenalee couldn't believe that Kanda would be jealous. Lavi was like his best friend, after all. It's impossible for Allen and Lavi together, Lavi is the next bookman. She was ready to say it to Kanda but she felt that someone was coming so she refused to say it. Instead, she readied herself to hug Kanda, slowly. She moved closer and reached her arms to Kanda, SLOWLY. She was waiting for this 'someone' to come and stop her from hugging Kanda.

"Kanda!" A voice shouted.

Kanda opened his eyes and turned to see who called him. Lenalee did the same and a smile was formed on her lips.

Kanda saw Allen. He felt his heart hurt again. Allen was with Lavi. And Allen was looking at him with an angry face and a little painful expression.

Yeah… Look at me with those eyes while you look at Lavi with the most beautiful smile. "What?" Kanda responded trying to keep his cool.

Allen ignored the question; instead, he ran to Kanda, grabbed his wrist tightly and dragged him. Kanda was surprised at the action. He was being dragged by Allen. Lavi and Lenalee, on the other hand, just looked at them.

"Oi, Moyashi! Where are we going?" Kanda shouted irritated.

Allen stopped running. Kanda did the same. Allen turned around to look at Kanda angrily. Kanda looked at him puzzled because Allen looked like he was going to cry.

"Oi," Kanda said uneasily. He didn't know what he would do if Allen started crying.

There was a moment of silence until Allen slapped Kanda really hard. A red mark of Allen's small hand was left on Kanda's face. Kanda frowned at this and looked at Allen fiercely ready to shout at Allen but Allen grabbed Kanda's hand again and dragged him.

"I'm going to get my revenge, baKanda… and my name is Allen!" Allen shouted as they ran.

They ran and ran and ran. They ran upstairs and downstairs. They kept running until Kanda grew tired of it.

"Oi, Moyashi, where are we going?" Kanda said still running. This is the third time we ran in this hall, what the hell.

Allen didn't reply but tightened his grip on Kanda's wrist because of what the older man said.

Kanda's eyebrows crossed because he was ignored. "Is this your revenge, Moyashi, making me run with you until I lose energy and faint?" Kanda asked irritated.

Allen stopped running again. He turned to face Kanda. Sweats were rolling down his face. He was more exhausted than Kanda. "This isn't my revenge! I'm looking for my room but I can't find it. I'll get my revenge there! I'll make you play poker! And… and…" Allen breathed heavily. All this running made him tired.

"And?" Kanda asked.

"MY NAME IS ALLEN, BAKANDA!" Allen shouted.

Kanda was surprised at the statement. He was expecting a more meaningful answer. A thought came to Kanda's mind; a smirk was formed on his lips. Allen looked at him but quickly bowed his head because Kanda looked so handsome when he smirked.

Kanda put his hand under Allen's chin making Allen looked up. A light shade of pink was visible on his face. "Ok, Allen," Kanda said. It was more like 'Aren' because of his Japanese accent.

Blood rushed up to Allen's face. His face was so red. Kanda just said Allen's name with his sexy voice and now, Allen is too embarrassed. Allen took Kanda's hand off his chin then bowed his head quickly to hide his face.

"Allen…" Kanda repeated teasingly, still smirking.

Allen blushed more and more. He clutched Kanda's coat and looked at him, "You can stop saying my name now," Allen said trying to sound angry, but ended up sounding nervous. He didn't know he would be this embarrassed.

Kanda's smirk grew wider and he took Allen's gloved hand and kissed it gently, making the Moyashi shiver and blush redder if it was even possible. "Allen…"
