Chapter 18

How Much Does a Polar Bear Weight ? Just Enough to Break the Ice.

Has anyone ever said just one word to you but that one word made you weak in the knees? Well, that's what Lavi did to Allen. All Lavi just said hey and Allen was holding onto the wall for support.

"Hiya!," Allen said nervously, kicking himself for using such a stupid greeting.

Lavi just smiled and reached for Allen's hand, "Ready to go?".

Allen just smiled back at Lavi and nodded.

Allen quickly locked his door and allowed Lavi to lead him to his car, where Lavi opened the passenger door for him. Allen quickly slid in and buckled up. Curious for what they were going to do, Allen looked around for hints. Allen turned his head to the backseat where he saw two thick blankets and two big, puffy coats.

"What in the world?" Allen thought, trying to think why they would need these things.

Lavi slid into the driver's seat and started Cilla's engine with a loud roar. Allen looked over at Lavi and smiled his sweetest smile.

"Lavi?" Allen purred.

"Yea, Bean Sprout?" Lavi said, teasing in his voice.

Allen let the annoying nickname go for once, wanting information, and purred again, "What are we going to do tonight?"

Lavi chuckled to himself softly before he answered, "Everything…twice."

Although Allen just saw Lavi's profile, he knew he was smiling like the Cheshire Cat. Allen groaned then leaned back in his seat, pouting like a stubborn child.

After a few minutes of driving, Lavi pulled into a grocery store parking lot and parked. A very confused Allen got out and looked at Lavi.

Lavi just smiled and lead Allen into the store. The two walked down an unoccupied aisle where Lavi turned to face Allen.

"What are we doing?" Allen asked for what seemed like the thousandth time.

Lavi smiled and started putting on glow stick bracelets and necklaces on himself and Allen, "Just trust me, okay?"

Allen just smiled and nodded.

Lavi finished putting on the glow sticks then whispered in Allen's ear softly, "When I say dance, dance, okay?"

A blush came across Allen's face and not because of how close Lavi was to him, but because he couldn't dance.

"L-Lavi, I can't dance," Allen said, distress in his voice.

Lavi smiled at him again, "That's fine, just jump up and down when I tell you to," and then kissed Allen softly.

Allen smiled, Lavi just knew what to say. The two walked down the aisle to where the cashier stations were and Lavi lead Allen to the magazines.

"Don't ask what where doing, even though I know you want to. No more, just trust me," Lavi said as he picked up a magazine and flipped though. Allen just sighed and nodded. Allen started looking around at all the people here. There were so many people around the cashier area but none of them were checking out and they all had glow stick bracelets and necklaces on too.

"What in the world is going on?" Allen wondered.

Lavi put his magazine down and started looking at the people around them, smiling and nodding at a few.

"Get ready," Lavi whispered to Allen.

"What's goi-," Allen started but was interrupted by the lights being cut off.

"DANCE!" Lavi yelled and started dancing. He wasn't the only one dancing though. Everyone who was wearing the glow stick jewelry was dancing too. And over the loud speaker, bass heavy techno music began to pound. Allen finally put the pieces together, he was in a flash mob. So Allen decided, do as flash mobbers do, and he began to jump up and down with the beat.

After a few minutes of flash mobbing, the music was cut and the lights turned on, Lavi grabbed Allen's hand and ran to the exit, with Lavi laughing all the way. They got to the car and a sweaty Lavi pulled an equally as sweating Allen into a hug.

"Did you like flash mobbing?" Lavi asked, kissing the top of Allen's head.

Allen smiled into Lavi's just and looked up at him, "Yea, it was a lot of fun."

Lavi smiled and kissed his forehead. "Our date isn't over yet," and he opened Allen's door for him. Allen slid in and Lavi slid in a few minutes later. The two drove in comfortable silence for a few minutes before pulling into a farm. Again, Allen wanted to ask what was going on. Lavi reached into the back and gave Allen and blanket and coat while he took the other for himself.

"Put the coat on," Lavi said, "It's balls cold."

Allen did as Lavi suggested and got out.

Lavi was right, it was balls cold, whatever that meant.

The wind whipped Allen's face with force and Allen wrapped the blanket around his shoulders. Lavi came behind Allen and wrapped and arm around Allen's shoulders and lead him into the barn where it was a little warmer. There was a group of people all the just standing around and talking. Lavi smiled and said hello to a few people and introduced Allen to them before leading Allen over to a little stand.

"Hey Jerry!" Lavi said to the man behind the stand.

"Oh Lavi, it's so great to see you again!" the man, squealed?

"This is my boyfriend, Allen," Lavi said, "Allen, this is one of my friends, Jerry."

Allen smiled and shook the over enthusiastic man's hand.

"You are gorgeous, such white porcelain skin!" Jerry exclaimed.

"Can you give him a cup of hot chocolate while I get things ready?" Lavi asked Jerry.

"Of course!" Jerry squealed again.

"Wait right here. I'll be back in like, two minutes," Lavi said as he hugged Allen. Allen smiled and nodded. Lavi let go of him and walked away.

"Here you go, hun," Jerry said as he gave Allen a cup of hot chocolate.

"Thanks," Allen said, taking the cup to warm his hands. As Allen sipped his drink, he couldn't help but notice Jerry stare at him.

"Sorry I'm starin', I just can't believe Lavi finally has a boyfriend," Jerry said, "He said he would only date someone he thought was perfect."

Allen smiled a little, excited that Lavi thought he was perfect.

Lavi returned shortly and smiled at Allen, "Ready?"

Allen nodded and threw away his cup and followed Lavi outside. It wasn't as cold since they were behind the barn and it blocked some of the wind so Allen unwrapped the blanket around his shoulders. Lavi lead them over to two huge chunks of ice.

"Can I have the blanket?" Lavi asked. Allen gave him his blanket and Lavi laid it on the chunk of ice, and doing the same with the other chunk of ice. Lavi sat on it and motioned for Allen to do the same. Hesitantly, Allen sat on the chunk of ice.

"On the count of three, use your feet to push you down the hill, okay?" Lavi said, smiling like an excited child. Allen just nodded.

"One…two…THREE!" Lavi screamed, pushing himself down the hill in a red blur, "WHEEEEE!"

Allen scouted himself to where the edge was, breathed deeply and with all his might, pushed himself down the hill. Everything was a blur but it was like a roller coaster. The wind was blowing Allen's hair back so all you could see was white hair. Allen made it to the end and rolled of the chunk, laughing as hard as he could. Lavi was sitting a few feet away, smiling and watching Allen.

"Have fun?" Lavi asked when Allen calmed down.

"Yes!" Allen yelled as he sat up, "Can we do it again?"

Lavi laughed and nodded, pushing his chunk of ice up the hill with Allen doing the same. The two went up and down the hill about a million times.

Allen slid down the hill and rolled of the block of ice and looked over at Lavi.

"Ready to go eat?" Lavi asked?

"Yea," Allen said as he picked up the blanket and started to push the block up the hill.

"Just leave it here, it'll melt," Lavi said, wrapping an arm around Allen's shoulders and walking to the car. The two got in and Allen looked at the clock. Whoa, how was it 1 in the morning already?

"Want to go to Waffle House?" Lavi asked.

"Sure, I've never been." Allen answered.

Lavi hit the brake so hard, it caused Allen to choke on his seatbelt.

"You've never been to Waffle House?" Lavi asked with pure shock.

Allen nodded.

"You haven't LIVED!" Lavi exclaimed, starting to drive again.

Allen began to wonder how amazing this place was.

"That, was the best place ever," Allen said, getting in the car after he gorged himself on waffles.

"I know," Lavi said, starting his car and driving over to Allen's.

"This was an amazing date, Lavi," Allen said, smiling over at Lavi, "Thank you."

Lavi placed one of his arms around Allen's shoulders, "I should be thanking you, Allen."

Allen smiled and felt butterflies in his stomach. Not nervous butterflies, but happy butterflies.

Lavi pulled in front of Allen's and cut the engine, "I'll walk you to your dorm."

Allen smiled and got out when Lavi opened his door. The pair walked to dorm 14 and Allen unlocked his door.

"Thanks for everything, Lavi," Allen said, about to enter his dorm.

Lavi smiled and turned Allen around gently and them kissed his lips softly but full of love.

Allen couldn't help but kiss Lavi back.

The pair split for air when Lavi smiled down at Allen, "Thank you, Allen," and then kissed Allen's forehead again, "And goodnight."

"Goodnight, Lavi," Allen smiled and entered his dorm, flinging himself onto the couch and squealed happily into the pillow.

Allen rolled onto his back and closed his eyes and let his dreams be filled with a certain red head.
