Okay… I know my story is somewhat confusing because I still haven't stated a specific setting. I originally intended for it to be in Japan because of the Cultural Festival. But I also planned it be in London. I used the terms sophomore, junior and senior right? I meant that because I didn't want to use terms like 2nd year, 3rd year or 4th year.
If in London, they're having a Cultural Festival because they would like to have or try the same event as the other countries'. Um... you somehow get my point yeah? Oh, and about Lavi, Lenalee and Allen going to the school in Japan, it's possible that they're transfer students right? Here, their setting in the story is London.
Lavi's been wooing Allen for a month now, how can he not be straight forward about his feelings? And Kanda, despite being stubborn, is a little possessive here and is more open. When I said Allen was like an 'idol', I did't mean the real idol. Girls and boys just like to consider him like that because of his cuteness and gentlemanliness.
And about the lamp post, I forgot to tell the reason why Lavi got cut; it's because of a part of the pole. What I'm describing is the kind which still has a lot of things attached to it. Just try to imagine a post with those loose wires or things around it... I'm really really really sorry for all the confusion okay?
As you can see, I'm inexperienced and this is my 1st fan-fic ever... :)

Ch. 4- Your Guardian Angel
"Thanks Michaelis." Allen smiled at his butler
"Young Master, are you sure you can handle going to school?"
"I'm fine. My head doesn't hurt that much anyway. You may go now."
He walked into the Black Order, greeting the guards as he walked past them and the gates. His butler bowed and then got in the the Walker limousine to get back home.
Allen wasn't that exhausted to not walk from their home to his school. He was just doing this to save his energy for the upcoming work later on. Even if he ate many, he would still lose his stamina because he has to strain himself a lot. Though, the students are doing their own jobs as well in setting up their own booths. They have chosen already anyway and everyone seems to be busy. The Student Council members are just preparing for the Battle of the Bands and the 'Mr. and Ms. Black Order' contest. Just four more days to go and it's the big event already. He is really excited for it, and he feels happy because their jobs are lessening. But because of non-stop working, Allen had a fever. And he still has slight of it even until now.
Allen also felt he was blessed because not all can do well in their studies when they're often busy. He was always the top student of his year level so teachers don't mind if he was sometimes out of class. It is for urgent purposes anyway. If we were to compare him with all the students of different levels, he would probably be the first or second to Lavi among all of them. That guy has got one heck of a brain despite his goofy attitude.
Classes in the morning ended quite shortly and it was break time already. On his way to the cafeteria, he thought about hanging out with his friends for a while since he wasn't able to meet them this morning or the ones like days ago. Then, he just thought of eating first and finishing most of his work during this period. That way, he could be with his friends during lunch or dismissal time. He quickened his pace to the cafetria a bit and went to buy food. After he had bought a dozen or so, he sat at the table and began munching. Though the food here was good, nothing can compare to what Jerry, his personal cook that he had hired, makes at home. He wasn't picky anyway so he appreciated whatever food he eats. In just a few minutes, his snack was already finished. Then, he stood up and threw his trash into the garbage bin.
Just when he was about to exit the cafeteria through the door, he was surprised to see it open before he could even touch it. But what surprised him more was that, the one who opened it was Lenalee. She wasn't alone; their two friends were also by her side. Allen blinked, and so did Lavi and Lenalee. They stared at each other for a while and Kanda just glared at something. Then Lenalee smiled at his younger friend.
"Where have you been Allen?" Lenalee asked in her slightly worried tone.
"We haven't seen you for a while now," Lavi commented while Allen laughed a little.
"Sorry guys. It's just that, I want to finish our work so we can have our rest already," Allen answered.
"But we didn't say you should have all the burden on your shoulders."
"Yeah, that's why we're here. We're helping too aren't we? Even Yu does his own job." Lavi received a nice jab to his stomach made by his classmate.
"It's not really a burden, so it's fine," Allen looked at his wrist watch and then back at his friends. "I better go now. I'll just talk to you guys later."
"Okay, just don't overexert yourself," Lenalee smiled warmly and then proceeded to buy snacks while her two companions were left behind.
Lavi looked like he was about to glomp Allen anytime while Kanda seemed expressionless as he gazed at him. The trio wasn't making any motion to speak. Since nobody said anything, Allen decided to leave. He tried to make way between the older males but he just can't get through. It's not because of the narrowness of the doorway. In fact, it was kinda large actually. But seeing two tall people guarding it, with the redhead stretching out his arm on the side, it was impossible for him.
"Please let me through," Allen politely demanded.
"Not until you talk to us for a bit," Lavi replied.
"You do realize that you're blocking the doorway of the cafeteria right?"
"Why don't we go somewhere else then?"
"Lavi, I said I'll talk to you guys later didn't I? I planned on finishing most of my job today as soon as I can so I could hang out with you guys later on," Allen sighed after he explained.
"Tch. Have you even tried asking for our help?" Kanda, who was deadly quiet a while ago, finally spoke.
"Our part was almost done anyway," Lavi added.
"Thanks, but I can do my part alone. You guys can just finish your own jobs."
"I knew you'd fucking say that."
"No matter what you say, we'll still help you," Lavi assured him as he began walking towards the counter with Kanda following behind.
Allen sighed again. He didn't know who was more stubborn; if it's him or his two friends. When Allen looked over at a nearby table, he noticed Lenalee eating. The girl was watching them before and smiled as he did the same. He turned around and then left the cafeteria, proceeding to the Student Council room. Though he felt sleepy, his job was still unfinished.
~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~
"Walker, will you answer question #10 on the board for us?" Tiedoll, their Math teacher instructed him after telling a student to sit down because he wasn't able to answer it.
Allen nodded and stood up from his position. Unlike some other students, he just went straight to the front without any notebook or book in hand. He didn't need to look at the notes because he can solve the problem given easily. Allen started scribbling on the board with a chalk while his classmates stared in awe at him, or rather, at the equations and solutions that were being written.
While writing, he began thinking about his friends. He should make up for all the times that he wasn't able to meet with them. It was kinda bad of him to not even text them. Well Lavi and Lenalee would message him and he would only reply occasionally. Kanda doesn't do the same thing as his friends, he only does that for emergency purposes or really important cases. As in when someone's about to die, in situations like it's almost too late. Sometimes, Allen would tend to ask the man why he even bought a cellphone if he wasn't going to use it. He just went against the question, Kanda will only answer with something worthless anyway so there's no point in even asking.
Soon, his thoughts entirely drifted to the guys who had confessed to him. He tried to envision himself dating one of them. What will it be like to be Lavi's? He thought of the things that they would do if that will happen. Walking down the hallways hand in hand, stealing kisses in the library while nobody's watching, and snuggling close to each other when it's cold. What if it's Kanda? He imagined doing the same with the other. Never leaving each other's side (except in class of course), melting in the embrace of the other's warmth, and kissing passionately when alone.
Allen shook his head. He must be thinking too much.
He almost filled the whole board with his answer. It was greatly detailed that even Tiedoll had a little difficulty catching up with the boy. When Allen was done, he put down the chalk and dusted his gloved hands. Then, he took a look at Tiedoll who seems to be deep in thought just like the rest of the class. Was his answer wrong?
"Um… Did I make a mistake?" Allen slightly panicked. He wasn't sure if what he was doing was still right because of all the thinking he made and the slight fever he has.
"No! No, it's correct. Your answers are all right. Though…" the Math teacher trailed off as he glanced back at the board. "It seems that you did not only answer #10, but up to the #14, #10 should be the last question."
"What…?" Allen followed his teacher's gaze and indeed, he was right. Allen had answerd the five consecutive numbers and had almost filled the board with his equations and solutions. So that's why everyone was staring speechless at him.
"Oh! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to answer that many!" Allen waved his hands in front of him and continued to apologize. Allen really is thinking a lot of things. He didn't even notice how many he had answered already. Even he himself doesn't know how he had known the questions to the other numbers. After apologizing, Allen sat back down on his seat. Tiedoll didn't mind him answering a lot, what bothers him is the fact that he had nowhere else to right on the board. Sure there's still some space left, but that would be for the assignment later on. So he just discussed without anymore additional notes on the lesson.
"Allen… is something troubling you?" Road, his seatmate, asked worriedly as she leaned to whisper. He just laughed nervously at her.
"I'm fine Road. You need not to worry about me." He smiled and thanked the girl for her concern.
"Okay… if you say so. I just don't want to see my cute Allen looking bothered. It just doesn't suit your face." They laughed silently and focused once again on their Math teacher. He didn't want to worry anymore people.
Moments passed and so did Allen's other subjects. Only a few more minutes and its lunch break already. He frequently glanced at his wrist watch, just a few more waiting. Was he really anticipating their break time because of the food, or was it because of his friends? Allen's stomach grumbled loud enough for the whole class to hear. Everyone laughed and so did their current teacher; Anita. For now, food was the top priority. Allen began the countdown. 6…5…4…3…2…1…
Atlast, the bell rang.
"I'll see you again tomorrow. Make sure you all study for our quiz," Anita announced before she left the classroom. Allen immediately got up from his seat and waved a hand at Road when the girl called him, then rushed to the cafeteria. With every step he made, the louder his stomach growls.
~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~
"May I have an order of pie, spaghetti, a sandwich, curry, burger…" Allen continued to choose from the menu while the cook listed his choice.
After all of his orders were done, he went to a vacant table carrying the trays of food with him. He dug in it with such enthusiasm that he didn't notice the three people who sat with him. When he was about to take a large bite on his burger, he realized that he wasn't eating alone. He blinked several times and smiled at his company.
"Hey," Lavi greeted beside him.
"Hey," Allen greeted back. He did the same to Lenalee and Kanda who were sitting across from them.
"Is your job almost finished?" Lenalee asked as she ate her salad.
"Yes, I just need to finalize the contestants of the Battle of the Bands and the 'Mr. and Ms. Black Order'. How was your side doing?"
"We're fine. We already checked the booths and almost all of them are finished preparing."
"And the stage for the contests?"
"Done already."
"How about the food stands?"
"You're really worried about the food aren't you?" Lenalee and Lavi tried to hold back their laughter while Kanda still looked indifferent as ever.
"Don't worry Moyashi-chan, we've already managed that." Lavi assured him as he pat his back.
"Thank goodness." Allen sighed. "And please stop calling me with that ridiculous name."
"Why? 'Moyashi' fits you perfectly." Lavi teased him. "I wanted to make my own nickname for you but since Yu picked a very nice one, I'll just go with it."
Kanda and Allen growled in unison. The eighteen-year old was mad for being called by his first name countless times while the younger one was angry for being called a beansprout endlessly. The two males stood up for a while and got ready to strike. Kanda cracked his knuckles loudly and Allen exercised his left arm, which is by the way, incredibly strong. Lavi began to sweatdrop and started apologizing to them at once. But no matter how many times he pleaded, the two weren't going to hold back anymore.
"Now people… let's not get violent." Lavi laughed nervously and tried to shield himself from the two beasts with his hands.
"Lenalee! Help me!" Lavi cried while the girl just giggled in return. She missed this lively side of his friends. But no matter how funny this may look, she needed to stop this before someone gets brought to the hospital. It'll really be a pain to watch over them.
"Guys, guys… Settle down now. You don't have to be so rash." The redhead tried to thank her in the process of being choked by his two friends. "Lavi's beaten up already. Besides, what will the others think about us? We're the members of the Student Council and yet we create this kind of racket?"
Lenalee continued to scold the trio like a mother would do to her children. Allen became worn out but didn't let it show. He stopped beating the crap out of his pitiful suitor while Kanda loosened his grip on Lavi's neck, and finally settled it on his sides. The redhead sighed in relief after being released by his classmate's fierce grip. His face now returning to its original color unlike before which became red due to lack of air.
"Allen…" Lavi started, faking his tears. "How could you? How could you do that to me after all the love I've shown you?"
Lavi mimicked the tone one would use when he found out that his lover was cheating on him. Allen tried to stay mad at his friend, but he couldn't help smiling at him. He sighed helplessly and put his hands on his waist. He knew the older male was just joking about the whole 'Moyashi' thing, but it angered him that they would compare him to a beansprout. He is not a plant after all.
Moments later, static was heard that was soon followed by a voice.
"Calling for the attention of Allen Walker, Kanda Yu, Lenalee Lee and Lavi Bookman, please proceed to the Student Council room immediately. The Supervisor needs your report." Reever's voice echoed throughout the whole cafeteria, announcing the message two times.
"Guess that's us," Lavi said as he stood up and fixed himself.
Allen reached out and laid his palm on Lavi's left cheek while Kanda's right hand twitched, Lenalee expected something surprising and Lavi waited for a kiss. But to his dismay, it didn't come. Allen parted his hand a little from Lavi's cheek and then slapped it. Hard. Because of the impact, a hand mark appeared on the spot. Everyone in the cafeteria was stunned at the sudden action (except for Lenalee who was expecting something like this and Kanda who hid his surprise) and stared at the two. Allen noticed this and faced them.
"Please continue with what you're doing. We're just having a nice little chat." He smiled innocently at them making them all continue what they're previously at.
"W-Why'd you do that?" Lavi finally spoke.
"Oh nothing," Allen sang. "I just felt like slapping you."
~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~
Komui browsed through the report the members made. There were photos showing the outcome of the preparations, details about the booths, the stands and many more. The only document missing was Allen's lists of candidates for the contests. After checking it, he handed them to Reever.
"So the only thing we need now is Allen's lists then?" Komui looked at the young president.
"I'll get it done as soon as I can," Allen assured the principal while trying to fix himself into a comfortable sitting position. But that may be impossible seeing as Kanda and Lavi are constantly pulling him to their side. The two boys kept on bringing Allen beside them. This was like a tug of war except that, instead of a rope, it was Allen being forcefully pulled back and forth.
"Let the Beansprout sit over here!" Kanda exclaimed.
"No fair! You already sat beside him in the last meeting!" Lavi objected.
Here we go again…Allen thought and mentally sighed.
"Che. Didn't you just sit beside him in the cafeteria?"
"Yeah but… I haven't been with him for so long!" Lavi whined pulling Allen to him.
"Well neither did I." Kanda grabbed the white haired boy and his seat and placed it beside him.
"It's so peaceful ne, Lenalee?" Komui said within the chaos happening.
"Yes it is, brother." She chuckled while her brother smiled.
"Let go Yu-chan!"
"No you let go, you damn rabbit!"
Allen rubbed his temples, not just because of the ruckus, but also because of a headache he's been feeling since this morning. But still, he felt very happy being with his friends again.
~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~
"Are you sure you're not coming Allen?"Lenalee asked when she got ready to go out of the SC room.
"I'm fine here." He smiled in response. "Kindly inform the teachers about this okay?"
"Sure thing." Lavi stood up from his seat beside the younger one. "Don't overwork yourself too much yeah?"
"Got it." Allen glanced up at Kanda who was walking beside him. The other looked down at him with a knowing look and then flicked him on the forehead.
"Ow! What was that for?"
"That's to keep idiots like you awake."
"I wasn't sleepy!" Allen pouted.
"Tch. Just hurry it up then… so I could talk to you already…" The last statement came out barely as a whisper.
"Hm? What did you say Kanda?" Allen leaned in and cupped his ears to hear better.
"I said, just fucking do your work!" The raven haired male shouted and then stomped off to his classroom. Allen just giggled.
"Guess I have to finish this fast."
~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~Laven~Yullen~
Classes have ended and Kanda was on his way to check on the Moyashi. He wondered how he was doing because when he flicked his forehead, he felt how hot Allen was. If he guessed right, then he needed to bring Allen to the Infirmary fast. He didn't even bother waiting for Lenalee since she's from a different level or the redhead because he figured out that soon enough, that guy would follow and also appear. When he opened the door to the SC room, he didn't expect the boy to really fall asleep.
He was sleeping peacefully while facing the doorway, his head laid on top of his arms. As Kanda came closer, he noticed that there were papers stacked beneath the sleeping angel, and realized it to be the beansprout's finsihed documents. He slowly took the papers underneath, careful not to wake the white haired boy nor to crumple the papers. When he successfully pulled out the documents, he put it in his bag and then touched the boy's forehead for his temperature. Kanda sighed in relief. Allen wasn't that hot anymore. He immediately went to the infirmary to get an ice pack. Just as he exited the room, Lavi came in.
Like Kanda, the redhead was also surprised to find him asleep. He sat in his previous seat beside his angel and watched his sleeping face, laying his head the same as Allen's position. Lavi tucked some strands of hair behind Allen's ear to keep it from coveing his beautiful face. He watched every motion the other makes, his steady breathing, the pout that he would make whenever Lavi would poke his cheek and some other things. He couldn't help but smile at his face. He didn't hear the door open and close because he was too focused on the person sitting beside him. Lavi let out a small yelp when he felt something very cold stick to the back of his neck.
"Shut your mouth. You'll wake Moyashi," Kanda silenced him with a glare.
"I wouldn't be noisy if it weren't for you," the redhead whispered and glared back.
They both stood there and stared at the sleeping form. Lavi gently repositioned Allen's head then Kanda placed the ice pack on the boy's forehead. When their work was a success without waking the sleeping beauty, they sat once again comfortably and continued to watch Allen.
"So… how long will we let him sleep here?" Lavi asked in a whisper.
Kanda glanced at his wrist watch. "Until his fever cools down a bit."
Allen shifted a little and then slightly opened his eyes.
"Kanda…" the said man looked after being called.
"Lavi…" the redhead did the same and glanced at Allen.
"Thank you… for watching… over me…" Allen sleepily said and then closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep again. Lavi can't help but smile happily, even Kanda.
Outside the door, Lenalee was watching the trio silently through the window. She loved how Lavi and Kanda cared for Allen. They were like guard dogs watching over their master with such love and loyalty. With one last glance, she smiled and then left.
