Dark blue eyes opened uncertainly as the dim light roused the long haired man from his uneasy slumber and he let out a soft sight as he lifted himself up from the black couch. Slipping on a pair of black jeans and a plain white t shirt, Kanda frowned, throwing a glance at his slightly open bedroom door. 'Oh right…Lavi…Idiot, fell asleep and I had to carry him in there…'
Lazily shoving his feet into his boots Kanda sighed and reluctantly walked towards the door, pushing it open with a nudge of his foot. Of course Lavi was still asleep. Cringing as Kanda's eyes wandered to the bandaged wrist, he swallowed the snarl that desperately wanted to escape. Despite the fact he was going to question the red head later, with him asleep, it was easier to play doctor on him. He had noticed the finger shaped bruises that had most likely cause the wound in the first place and it really pissed him off.
Leaning again the doorway, his blue eyes watched as Lavi chest went up and down with every breath, his face calmer and more serene. Lavi's lips were slightly parted and his hair was covering the familiar eye patch and the rest of his face. It was almost breathtaking the emotions that whirled in Kanda's head and he felt confused, his face contorting as the red head turned in his sleep, murmuring something so low under his breath that the long haired man barley caught it…
"Yu."
Not turning on the light switch, Kanda took a seat on the edge of his bed, gently brushing the hair from his Lavi's face, eyeing the man warily.
"Idiot…" he murmured before walking out the bedroom, shutting the door lightly and paced out onto the early morning's streets, smiling bitterly as an old feeling panged through him.
It had been too long.
It was time to pay a visit to Lenalee Lee.

Jade green eye opened uncertainly as the harsh light roused him from his uneasy slumber and a groan of protest escaped his pale lips as pain shot through his right arm, his hand feeling almost numb and seemed to have lost most of its circulation. Looking for the source, he frowned; inhaling sharply as he recalled what had happed that night. His wrist was bandaged heavily with a thick gouge and was covered with a black glove so that it the bandages didn't show so much.
Lifting his upper half of his body off what seemed to not be his bed, he hissed, slowly rotating his wrist to get some feeling back into it. Wiping the red bangs from his face, Lavi looked around the room and felt the heat rush to his face quickly and he felt his one visible eye widen.
'Oh, this is Kanda's room…I thought it looked familiar…' Lavi thought, noticing that he was out of his casual clothes and in only his boxers and a casual, black t shirt. 'Huh, guess I borrowed his clothes too…' The red head brushed his fingertips against his cheek and blushed lightly. 'It's warm…'
The clock was flashing at him teasingly, and he felt himself blanch. "It's two in the afternoon already?" He said to no one in particular, and he quickly snatched his shirt from his bedside. "Damn it…Oi! Kanda you there?" He called out as he put on a pair of jeans.
Naturally, the red head felt guilty for ditching his best friend on the date he had set up but hell, he'd do anything to go back in time. The more he thought about it though, the more he grew pained. It was a sickening thought that no matter how much he begged or prayed to an unknown god, that nothing in his world could give him that chance. Any second chance.
To run away earlier as a child…
To have been quicker that rainy Thursday so many years ago…
To have dodged the bullet…
To have his eye back instead of a hideous black mark beneath the eye patch where the bullet had taken its toll…
Maybe, he could have killed the bastard before he killed everyone else important to him, he mused bitterly, resting against the wall.
"If only it was that easy…" Lavi whispered and slid onto the ground, his back against the hard surface. A laugh escaped his lips and he covered his eyes with his hand, chuckling bitterly.
"Ya, right…"

Allen Walker intertwined his hand in Lenalee's, blushing softly as he threw her a gentle smile which was returned. It was silent for a moment as she scanned over her book's page quickly before snapping it shut.
"Allen, you look upset…" She frowned, leaning forward, truly concerned. "Are you alright?"
"Hm?" The white haired boy let out a nervous smile and scratched the side of his head with his other hand. "I'm fine! It's just that…I'm more worried about you…That day…"
He trailed off noticing the obvious flinch and inhaled deeply, kissing her hand softly. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have but you know how I am when your sad love…" His pale cheeks grew redder by the second, and he was slightly relieved, that Lenalee was also blushing brilliantly.
"Moyashi…"
Both Lenalee's and Allen's heads shot up so fast that Kanda nearly let out a scowl.
"Kanda!" She said surprised and threw her arms around him, in a friendly gesture, and Allen, seeing her cue, patted Kanda on the arm lightly.
"Get off…" Kanda grumbled, adjusting his collar. "Don't think I'm that forgiving…" His words would have done much more damage but the tone he had said it in made Lenalee tear up in joy.
Kanda wasn't furious.
Kanda was going to listen.
Kanda actually came.
"Don't cry. It's frustrating." The long haired man sighed deeply, ignoring the death glare that he was being sent by Allen, who was annoyed that he wasn't being a gentleman. "You know why I came so don't bother lying either…"
Lenalee nodded quickly and literally pushed the man into the seat with a satisfied half breath, tears still at the corners of her eyes.
"We—I was going to explain everything that day at the hospital but…you…you were too mad and I knew you wouldn't listen clearly."
"Just say it Lenalee. I'm busy I have to get back home to a certain…idiot…"
Allen scowled at him but stopped as his lover raised her hand in a gesture of peace.
"Hold on Allen, let me at least say a word to him first."
Allen looked reluctant but nodded stiffly, taking a seat besides Lenalee.
"Kanda, we both know that we didn't love each other. Every time we were together, it was like you wanted to be somewhere else; I saw it in your expression. We were friends in high school and I don't think that ever changed. Kanda, you hated going on dates, I could tell, you hated not being able to speak your mind, when you should have…" She paused as the tears now came more freely from her eyes and Allen grimaced.
Kanda frowned as the words sunk in deeper. 'I can't deny it. She just said everything I couldn't and now…Fuck, now I feel like a bastard...Girls are so manipulative…'
"…Every time I would want to tell you it was time for us to break up, you'd do something romantic or something unusual, so I put it off from mainly guilt. You know I love you but it's hard to explain…I met Allen and well, it was different between us. I fell in love and then I realized that it was true." She covered her eyes with her hand. "What we did was never like that. I mean, all we did was kiss on cheeks but still…Kanda you have to believe me I never wanted to hurt you the way I did…"
His eyes narrowed. "It would have been different if I hadn't found you two screwing each other." He hissed.
Both Lenalee's and Allen's face turned bright red and Allen was the first to respond. "Y-you thought…oh my god…no! We, I, we weren't!" He protested, glancing at his lover in horror and complete embarrassment. "When you came barging in we were just looking for her necklace under the covers!"
"What?" Kanda felt his face flush. 'Oh fucks no…please tell me I didn't…'
"Kanda!" Lenalee eyes widened a horrified expression on her face. "We weren't even naked! Didn't you hear us laughing?!"
"…"
"You…idiot! You made my precious love worry for nothing!" Allen shrieked, pointing his finger accusingly at Kanda who returned it with a death glare.
"Allen! He has a right to be mad…?"
"No he doesn't!"
"Yes, he does!"
"Lenalee!"
"Allen!"
"Will the both of you shu—!"
"Lavi!" Lavi screamed from literally out of nowhere and all three of them nearly jumped out of there seats and Kanda would have fully gone off if Lavi hadn't caught him. "Hi Yu!"
"U-Usagi?! What the hell man! Why aren't you resting you idiot!" Kanda barked, carefully skimming his fingertips over the bandaged wrist. "Did you drive here with a broken wrist!?"
"Uh, noooo. And it wasn't too hard to find you…"
Both Allen and Lenalee watched as the two bickered at one another, and Lenalee felt the heat rush to her face and whispered something in Allen's ear. The white haired boy smirked and nodded.
"Um, are you two going out?"
Kanda and Lavi froze, and slowly turned their heads in the lover's directions and then too each others face. There was a long silence and neither one of them knew how to respond until Kanda finally let out a defiant 'che' and dragged the red head back in the direction of his car.
Kanda swore internally, feeling his face grow warmer by the second, his hand wrapped securely around Lavi's.
'What the hell is wrong with me?'
