'Bold.' Allen
'Bold Italics.' Nea
'Italics.' Peoples thoughts (Not Allen or Nea's)
"Alright boys, you are free to go." Kanda and Allen got up to leave. "But if you come back here because of another fight, you will not be leaving within a few days. Am I understood?" The head nurse told her two charges. In return she got one nod and one 'che'
Allen headed to the cafeteria while Kanda went to his bedroom (Loner) on his way the whitette met Lavi on his way, the redheads back was towards the whitette. Sneaking up behind him, Allen jabbed him in the ribs, making the older jump and yelp. Spinning around, Lavi laid eyes on a giggling Allen. Lavi grabbed Allens nose. "Y'know sprout, that wasn't very nice." He sighed while tugging slightly on the nose. Allen made a noise of displeasure and froze, as did Lavi.
"You aren't Nea, are you sprout?" He asked nervously.
Allen tried to speak but found he still couldn't so he just shook his head no. Lavi just sighed in relief. "Hey can you make any other noises?" He asked, Allen wanted to try but he had no clue what to try. Listening to the internal struggle, Nea suggested something. 'Why don't you try humming a song?'
Allen brightened and did just that. It started off hesitant and quiet but as soon as the whitette heard, his confidence grew tremendously and the song got stronger. Lavi was mesmerized, never in his life has he heard anything quite like this. It was full of sorrow, faith and loneliness and it was truly beautiful. The song came to an end and Allen's sight was blurred by unshed tears. 'Nea I-I did it. Oh my god I did it.' he thought to his other.
Lavi shook out of his shock more quickly than his friend and dragged him down the hall, straight to Anita's office. Without even knocking, Lavi swung the door open and practically ran in, dragging a poor Allen behind him.
"Anita!" He yelled, scaring Anita and Miranda.
"L-Lavi! Don't you see I'm in the middle of-"
"Allen can make noise!" He interrupted.
The therapist spluttered. "I'm sorry can you repeat that please?"
"Allen, he can make noises. He can't talk but he was humming."
She turned to the younger one."Is this true Allen?"
Allen nodded vigorously. Anita smiled. "Well can you show us?" She asked sincerely hoping it wasn't a fluke. Allen nodded and hummed an upbeat song that had heard on the radio, he only got a little bit in when Miranda crushed him into a hug, crying about how happy she was for him. Anita's smile grew even bigger and she too joined in on the hug. Lavi was feeling left out so he just kinda joined in as well.
'You might not be needing me for much longer my sweet child.' Nea thought to himself sadly.
Allen sensed something was wrong with Nea but he didn't know what. He made a mental note to ask him later. Wiggling out of the group hug, Allen grabbed his notepad and wrote. 'Can I go grab something to eat now?'
The redhead took one look at the note and broke out into laughter. Anita shook her head but nodded. "Before you go I just want you to know our session will be moved up to tomorrow afternoon. Okay Allen?"
Allen nodded then left. This time Lavi was the one being dragged.
Anita turned to Miranda. "Sorry about that. Shall we continue?"
"Y-yes please." Miranda answered
Lunch was an interesting affair. As it seems the redhead known as Lavi decided to pretty much showcase Allen, the whitette was okay with it but after the fourth person he ignored everyone in favor of eating his meal. Once he was done, he left the redhead and went to the very back of the library.
'Nea?'
"Yes child?'
Nea walked up and sat down across from his friend. (Host?)
'Is everything okay?' Allen asked tilting his head to the right.
'Yes. Why wouldn't it be?' The dark haired man copied the action
'I'm not sure but something didn't feel right when we were in Anita's office.' He shrugged trying to explain. All was silent for a while. Allen waiting for Nea to answer and Nea trying to order his thoughts
'What would you do if I went away?' Nea asked bluntly. Allen's eyes widened, he couldn't possibly imagine what life would be like without Nea, he was his shoulder to lean on, the only one who would actually listen to Allen and care for him. Yes he was sometimes unruly and a pain in the ass but in all honestly Allen would be lost if Nea were to disappear.
'Why would you ask that?' He panicked.
'Because I just wanted to know.' Nea lied, he didn't want to but with Allen getting upset he had no other choice.
'Are you saying you want to leave?' Allen whispered broken, barely loud enough for Nea to hear. The dark individual bit his lip.
"I don't want to.' He said slowly. 'But there is a difference between want and need Allen. You know this.' He ended softly he stood up and cupped Allen's face.
'I don't get it. Why do you need to leave?' Allen asked,holding the warm hand to his cheek.
'I'm no longer needed.'
'You're wrong I'll always need you!' Allen yelled at Nea, desperation clear in his voice. 'And you said you'd protect me. That you'd never leave me!'
'Don't you think I know that.' Nea yelled back.
Allen stood up, slamming his hands down on the table. 'You promised.'
He took a deep breath before replying. 'Allen. I have done my best to protect you, but now is my time to leave. I have fulfilled my promise to Mana and it is time that you took things into your own hands.' Nea looked into Allen's silver eyes. 'It's now your turn to keep your promise to Mana and keep walking forward, I love you and I will always be here for you. Not in your head.' Nea touched Allen's heart. 'But inside your heart, just like Mana is right this very moment.'
Allen sank back into his seat. 'Please don't leave me.' He whispered brokenly, his head bent forward as silent tears fell to the table below. Nea had to strain to hear Allens whisper. With a soft smile, he lifted Allen's tear stained face and kissed his forehead.'You know I can't promise that.'
'Please don't leave me Nea. Not like Mana did.'
TBC…..
