Truth or Dare
A/N: Okay, I pulled an all-nighter on what to write, planning this and that. Finally I've come up with plenty of ideas.
Special thanks to: WrathofMugen, Zeekeh, Blood Soaked Redemption, SilentKiller1, Sekai(dot)love(dot) and deathangel338 for sharing your ideas and opinions. I really appreciate your help!
There might be a little bit of OOCness in the future, but I'll do my best to keep them in character.
Fun Fact (lol not really): Did you know, that this fan fiction was supposed to be one shot? I had it planned out for only one chapter, but somehow I ended up extending this fan fiction.
PS: I'm in search for a beta reader; please leave a message if interested.
Don't forget to Read & Review :D
3 options.
Run.
Hide.
Or suck it up and just give a damn answer.
These 3 things swam in Allen's head continuously. It was chaos for him. He never had to think so much before. It made him feel like he finally understands what it's like to be in a life or death situation.
'Alright, let's think this through,' he thought calmly, restraining to show any weakness to his friends. Running would be a good choice, but he reminded himself that Lenalee would've been prepared for that in any circumstances.
Out.
Hiding. There's only one place he can think of and that's his room. He imagined what it would be like if he had to stay there for an unknown time period. He knew that Lavi and Lenalee would be haunting him for the rest of his life. So that would make Allen unable to leave his room. What about bathroom breaks? What about food?
Food.
Food that Allen can't eat. No food will come to him. How can he survive? Will he die? What about dango?
No dango.
He's oh so savoring dessert, gone.
Oh no.
"NO MITARASHI DANGO!!" Allen screamed, pulling out some strands of his hair.
Lenalee raised a brow, wondering if Allen was in his own world-- seeing that he's throwing a tantrum over his precious 'dango' that had somewhat gone 'missing'.
"Allen... Allen!" Lenalee yelled, forcing Allen to stop hitting himself on the table.
Allen froze. It took a few seconds before realizing that the hiding option is just a theory. He sighed in relief.
Hiding, definitely out.
That's left with answering the question. Allen's stomach sank. What should he say?
'Okay. What's a common thing that turns a person on?' he thought.

Dango?
Nah, that's just Allen.

Allen couldn't think of anything. With all the years he'd been through, he hardly ever learnt about puberty. All what Cross said was "don't go running around fishing women." (cough, cough, wonder who does that, cough) What more with kinks and turn ons? He racked his brain, trying to find any solution that would help him.
"Allen you're face is turning red," Lavi pointed worriedly.
Allen took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
Corset.
He vaguely remembered Lavi talking about the wonders of corsets and all that nonsense. He also said something about finding some in Lenalee's closet too, which made her furious and embarrassed when she found out. And speaking of corsets, Cross had forced Allen once to wash a woman's corset because there was some substance that wasn't supposed to be there and no, he didn't want to know how it ended up in the general's hands and what was the woman wearing underneath.
He shivered at the memory.
"Allen, you spent 5 minutes thinking. What are you doing in there? "Lenalee asked, knocking Allen's head.
"Sorry... I got carried away," he blushed.
"Well? We're waiting Allen kun." Lavi persuaded.
Lavi likes corsets. Cross likes corsets too—seeing that he carried one with him.
Alright, corset it is.
"I like bondage."
………………………………
Wait, what?
"Sorry, I meant to say bondage," Allen repeated.
Allen was startled. He reminded himself quite frankly that it was corsets, not bondage. Why was he saying that?
"I said bondage."
"Argh no! Bondage! Bondage! Bondage!" he repeated.
Lavi stared at Allen dumbstruck, while Lenalee remained completely placid.
"Bondage! Bondage! BONDAGE! BONDAGE! BONDAGE!!!!" Allen screamed, jumping up compulsively.
Kanda finally turned to face Allen with a look of disgust.
"We hear you loud and clear moyashi," Kanda muttered.
Actually, Kanda was referring to everybody. Apparently Allen shouted loud enough for everyone in the cafeteria to hear. Finders, other exorcists, even researchers were there and all of them had their wide eyes glued on Allen.
Allen huffed and sat back down, on the verge of tears. Lavi forced a fake smile, which didn't make Allen feel any better.
"Don't worry Allen. You're just telling the truth," Lenalee comforted.
"Truth? What truth? I don't like bondage!" Allen denied.
"Say what you want, but it's still the truth."
Lenalee continued. "I knew this was coming when you'll have the temptation to lie. So I stole some truth serum in the lab when brother wasn't looking, then I quickly poured some in the bottle so he won't know any of it have gone missing." She explained.
Allen blinked a few times, utterly clueless on what she's going on about.
"But... the bottle's closed, how could it possibly work?"
"I spread some of the substance on the outside. It's extremely sensitive; anyone can be affected within 5 meters so that means it's already in your system."
Allen gaped disbelievingly at Lenalee; absolutely aghast knowing there's some weird formula in his body.
"I'm one step ahead of you," Lenalee declared.
"Truth serum? There are no such things as truth serums!" Allen wailed.
"If akumas exist, why not truth serums?"
Allen opened his mouth, but then he closed it.
"See what I mean?" Lenalee justified herself.
"But, I really don't like bondage... A-and if there is such thing as a truth serum, then I'm telling the truth" Allen said, his voice gaining confidence.
"Allen, it doesn't work that way, so don't think you're getting out of this one. Besides, we confirmed it that the serum works perfectly!" She paused. "We even err... tested the serum... on a person to make sure...," Lenalee said hesitantly.
"How?" Allen asked.
"We asked Yuu chan a questi—."
Before Lavi could complete his sentence, Kanda shot a glare at him. Lavi could sense mugen threatening him.
Allen was rather curious on exactly what they asked Kanda, also the fact he's joining a game that the possibility on a regular basis is 0—which makes today not normal. Wonder why? Allen decided its best to ask later, he figured he wouldn't get a straight answer anyway.
"But... I really don't Lenalee. I'm speaking of the truth," Allen said with pleading eyes, hoping that she would for once believe him.
This time Lenalee took in some consideration and thought for a moment. "Maybe it's because you're not aware of it."
……………………
Right.
Let's get this straight. So there's this weird truth serum thingy that actually exists. Then he unintentionally blurts 'bondage' over and over again, even though he's completely aware he's supposed to say corset, and most of all he's not aware of what? Having a thing for bondage? Allen always believed that bondage is cruel! Criminals used it to bind their hostage. Why would Allen like that? Confused as it is, he let it be again, before he suffers a head trauma from all these new things Allen preferred he never knew of.
"Next time, just say it once. Not everyone wants to hear your sick, twisted fetish again and again," Kanda spat.
"Shut up baKanda!" Allen hissed, almost falling off the bench, his head spinning enormously because of all the thinking he had to go through.
Allen managed to clasp the bottle and twirled it. It wasn't a strong one; hence it landed unexpectedly on Kanda.
Allen smirked.
"Allen, I have a really good one, can I ask?" Lenalee pleaded.
"Sure," Allen responded avidly.
Kanda rolled his eyes, leaning his cheek on his palm. Allen hoped Lenalee had something that would make him for once a fool of himself.
"Truth or Dare?" Lenalee asked.
"Dare," Kanda answered, obviously uninterested.
"Aww. Why not truth Yuu chan? Lavi questioned.
He gave a do-you-think-I'm-an-idiot look in response. Lavi smiled weakly.
Lenalee looked around the cafeteria, left and right. She frowned a bit, until she stopped and stared at Allen.
Allen noticed this and he didn't like it at all.
"W-what?" he stammered nervously.
"I dare you to kiss Allen—actually no, I dare you French kiss Allen," Lenalee emphasized.
3 faces.
1 horrified
The other in awe
And the last with an evil grin.
He fully regretted on persuading with Lenalee's idea.
La la la~ Yes I know I'm evil to leave it always in a cliff hanger mwahahahaha!
Ok, I kind of felt a bit of a loser for putting the truth serum part, but I felt it would suck if Allen would just answer something random and that would kill the suspense. And like what Lenalee said, if truth serums exist, why not akumas? D. Gray-man is FICTION, so these types of things can exist. Get my point?
Speaking of Lenalee, she sure is evil. What can I say? It runs in the Lee family.
The game's getting more intense, but isn't that how it always works? (Does to me) Stay tuned for chapter 3, when things can get really messy!
Oh yes, about the bondage issue, I was scanning through photobucket, staring at super hot pictures of Kanda (Oh yeah, drool), and I came across this picture when he was all tied up with the begging face and god that was smexy!
Oh yeah! Don't forget to R&R kids!
