Hey guys! I'm so glad you like the story so far! Any requests?
Allen's Point of View
So I was going on a date with Kanda. I don't know what to do anymore. I sighed and grabbed my notebook. Kanda and I made a deal. I could have my notebook as long as I let him read my new poems. What to write, what to write. Oh I've got it.
Lead
I feel it again. Clang. Bang. Crash. I feel it again. The huge jumbled mass that wrecks my existence. It sits in the bottom of my heart, like a knife, like a weight and I'm dead. Can you hear it? Do you hear the Clang? The Bang? The Crash? Can you feel it? The feeling of dread? I can. I feel it. I feel it again. Clang. Bang. Crash. The lead is at the bottom of my heart again. I can feel it. But this time, it's melting. You've melted the lead at the bottom of my heart. Thank you. Thank you again for melting the lead.
I normally wouldn't have written that ending, but now that Kanda has talked with me, I feel like writing a thousand happy poems. Not that I could of course.
I sighed and laid back on the bed, wondering when Kanda would get done beating up Lavi. I understand why though. I'm not sure I want all my friends to know about me or my past. Just Kanda for now and even he got lucky.
He's stubborn just like me, although a little bit more stubborn than I am. I heard the door slam and I closed my eyes. "Che that Baka. What did he think he was doing?" Kanda said, setting Mugen off to the side. "He wasn't thinking Kanda. You know that." I said, yawning and stretching out on the bed.
The notebook lay open beside me and Kanda grabbed it, looking at the poem I had just written. After he read it he sat down next to me and sighed.
"What are you thinking?" I said, turning onto my side to look at him. "The poem was good. That's all." He said smiling softly. "Thanks." I said smiling at him. It wasn't a fake smile but a real one. "I love when you do that." He said and I noticed that he was turned toward me. "What?" I asked startled. He moved closer and whispered in my ear. "You smiled a real smile. I like it."
I shivered at the feeling of his breath on my ear. "Where are we going on our date?" I asked him, turning into his arms. "Mmm it's a surprise." He said, wrapping his arms around me.
"Aww you know I hate surprises." I said pouting slightly. I sighed. He wasn't going to tell me. "At least tell me when." I said stretching. "Hmmm I think on Friday would be good." I nodded.
That was fine with me although it was a week from now. "We should go outside." I said, standing up and grabbing Kanda's hand. "Why?" He asked me as he watched me pull on my boots. "I think it's going to rain and I love the rain. Plus all we've done this weekend is stay inside." He frowned at me. "Pleassseeee Kanda" I whined, pulling out the puppy eyes. He sighed. "Fine. Just for a little bit." I smiled and we went out the door. "So where's Lavi?" I asked as we went down the back steps.
"He's still alive but barely." He said scowling. "Lenalee wouldn't let you kill him?" I asked looking at the forest surrounding the cabin. "Sadly she wanted him alive." I laughed quietly.
It was the first time I had laughed in a long time and it felt good. "Moyashi. Did you just… laugh at me?" Kanda growled teasingly. I laughed again and then covered my mouth. "Uh…no..." I said backing away from him.
He came toward me and then he started casing me. I ran toward the lake that was a little ways into the forest. Then I felt two muscular arms rap around my waist and I fell. Kanda quickly straddled my waist. "Do you know what moyashi's get when they laugh at me?"
I gulped. "Uh nice Kanda." Then he reached down and started tickling me. "No! Kanda! No d-don't tick-kle me!" I started laughing uncontrollably.
I tried to grab his hands to make him stop but I couldn't because I was laughing too hard. When he finally stopped my sides were heaving and I was breathing hard.
"That…was…unfair." I said gasping. . "No it wasn't. You laughed at me." He said smiling down at me. He leaned down and softly connected our lips. I leaned up and kissed him back gently, wrapping my arms around his neck.
I still couldn't believe that Kanda liked me and accepted me. Well I didn't know if he would leave after he saw the scars but we weren't that far along yet.
"Kanda, tonight we should go and look at the stars with Lavi and Lenalee." I had always loved the stars because they must see something that we don't see. "Okay sure." He said, resting his forehead on mine. That's when we heard yelling.
"ALLEN! KANDA!" Lavi yelled through the forest. I got up and Kanda and I walked over to the back door of the cabin. "Lavi? What's wrong?" I said. "Allen there you are!" He said cheerfully. "What?" I asked. "I was wondering if you wanted to build a campfire tonight.
I couldn't find you in the cabin. Did you and Yuu sneak off to make out?" He asked smiling. "Kanda. You know what we must do" I said, pulling a knife out of my pocket.
(Fun fact: Because Allen doesn't have innocence in this; he is a professional knife thrower. His strong arm is his left arm but he can throw with his right arm just as well. Kanda of course has his sword, Mugen, Lavi has a mechanical hammer that he uses for self-defense, and Lenalee has lightweight boots that really hurt when she hits you. She's in gymnastics! Okay continue on)
Kanda unsheathed his sword and Lavi's eyes widened. "I was just kidding you guys." He said inching backward. "Lenalee! If Lavi's found dead I'm deeply sorry." I called out into the house, sarcasm dripping from my words. Kanda stepped forward and then Lavi bolted for it.
I picked up my knife and threw it so it would land right in front of him. He squealed and fell over. "Go ahead Kanda." I said smiling evilly. After Kanda had just about killed Lavi yet again, it had gotten darker outside. We all went outside and Lavi started chopping wood for the fire. After the fire was built, Lenalee and Lavi sat awfully close to each other. (Maybe something was going on between them?)
In the dark I felt Kanda's hand slip into mine and I smiled. Maybe everything was going to be all right after all.
Fire
For when the world goes up in flames, thy fair maiden is screaming your name. You left her lonely on a hill; she waits for your return. Alas dear knight you never came, and all her screaming was in vain, she died lonely on a hill, waiting for your return. "What happened?!" you say but of course you know, she died in the burning flames.
Hey guys! I may not update until Thursday or Friday because of Finals week! Sorry! :)
