Kanda yawned, stepping out of the bathroom with freshly washed hair and a patched up bruise. As soon as Kanda stepped foot in his room he paused. Something felt...off about the the air of his bedroom...but glancing around, he couldn't find anything out of place. He would have turned on a light to double check, but he didn't want to wake Allen up just because he was feeling paranoid. Kanda gave his room a final glance before rolling his eyes and laying on the little pallete he had made for himself on the floor.
The raven was half asleep when he finally heard the intruder.
"Kanndaaaa..."
Kanda looked around, half thinking he was hearing things. Today had been a long day...
"Kanda!"
The voice was a whisper, but louder this time. Kanda glared, sitting up and glaring in the direction the voice came from. "Who the hell is it?" Kanda hissed, blue eyes narrowed.
"Aw Yuu-kun, why are you so mean to me? You tucked this kid in and I've never even seen him before!" Kanda almost panicked when said voice was on the bed, sitting the way that a dog would and staring down at him with obscenely hyper green eyes.
"Get out of my house, Lavi."
Lavi pouted, sniffling as if he had been horribly devestated by Kanda's words. Kanda only rolled his eyes at the red head. How the hell had he gotten inside?
"So, who's the kid? I've never known you as someone that picked up strays." Lavi turned around, poking Allen and lifting a stand of his hair. White huh? Well, he had seen stranger. This kid must have had a love of bleach or something.
"None of your buisness." Kanda didn't miss a beat when trying to get Lavi out. Of course, the red head rarely complied, learning long ago that unless you bother Kanda to the brink of exploding that he wouldn't take you seriously in the least bit.
"Well, he's cute. Not really your type if you ask me." Lavi snickered at the blush that dusted Kanda's face. Kanda glared in response. What kind of freak has that kind of night vision?
"Then what is my type you oversized rabbit?" He whispered angrily. Huh, Kanda didn't know that he could do that, Usually he would be yelling by now. Lavi giggled, smiling at the 'nickname'
"Uhm... I always thought you shot out spores or divided when the time was right so... you?"
Kanda only twitched before turning around and laying back down. "Go away. Let. Me. Sleep." He wasn't in the mood for this crap from this idiot. He was never in the mood for said idiot, but still; anytime was better than now.
A few minutes later it was silent, and Kanda sighed in relief. That had been easier than normal... maybe Lavi had left and gone to sleep...or fallen out of the window that Kanda swore he got in by.

That was, until he felt the breathing on his forehead.

Allen did some thinking after his mother dissapeared. Allen didn't know much about what was going on in his mother's brain, or even what was going on in his own life, but he did know this. He couldn't tell Kanda about the engagement. Or anyone, for that matter, until he got this whole betrothal, Solen is back mess figured out and fixed. Allen firmed his resolve and thought for a moment, then mentally slapped himself. He didn't tell his mother about Solen! Well, she didn't tell him about the engagement until too late, so she could wait to hear about this until it was all fixed.
Allen firmed his jaw and thought about who this Linalee person was. Was she nice? Would she understand that Allen couldn't marry her? Would she ask questions? Was she spoiled? Would she only look after herself? Was she in love with someone else too? Was she mean? Allen shook his head. No matter what his mother may have done with his father, that was over 600 years ago, and many things had changed about the world they lived in. Allen frowned and sighed, closing down his mind for the night. He needed to sleep; to recharge. If he didn't, well...there was no telling who would get caught in the crossfire. Though he frowned mentally as he shut everything down, outwardly, all Allen did was sigh and turn his head to the side, causing some of his white hair to fall into his face.
"I think the little fella is having a nightmare." Lavi whispered, and Kanda twitched...hearing Lavi was enough. He didn't want to feel every single word too. But Kanda did want to make sure that Allen was alright. A nightmare when you're king of a dream world could be, well, dangerous.
Sitting on the bed, Kanda noted that Allen seemed to be sleeping just fine; eyes gently closed and a small snore sounding from his mouth. He really was cute...Kanda would have brushed his hair out of his face, but Lavi was right there and would never, ever let him live it down.
Lavi snickered anyways. The look on Kanda's face was enough to never let him live it down. "Jeeze, how did I miss this? When you fall you fall hard Yuu-kun."
Kanda Yuu, tired as ever, didn't even have the energy to cast Lavi anything more than a sharp glance. "Don't...call me that Lavi." Kanda yawned, and simply sat there...getting back on the floor was a lot of effort. Lavi giggled, hopping up and glomping Kanda. "Don't hurt that one Yuu...he's more than just a cute kid."
Kanda glanced at Lavi, wondering if he knew how right he was...Kanda wouldn't put it past him.
"I can tell these things Yuu! Don't start doubting me now." Lavi grinned, his cat like eyes glancing over at Allen. That kid was important...he had actually seen him before...though whether he had only read about him or seen an acual picture or seen him wandering the school grounds was unknown to him...he'd look it up later.
"Stop plotting and get out."

The next morning, Allen woke up slowly, cuddiling into the warmth next to him. Absently he wondered if Mr. Kanda had placed another blanket on him, but rejected it when the blanket moved and sighed, curling up next to him. Blankets don't move. Allen ignored the thought and curled up to it, nuzzling in deeper, trying to steal every last bit of warmth that he could from the not blanket.
Wait. The blanket just sighed.
Sadly, reality caught up with Allen, causing the boy to open his eyes to a sleeping Kanda, who's arms were around his waist, eyes still closed, breathing still deep. He was still sleeping, and Allen was sleeping and they were sleeping together and just how did Kanda end up on the bed?
Opening his eyes wide and blushing ten different shades of red, Allen got out of bed. Or at least, tried to. But the tightening of Kanda's arms made it a tad bit hard for Allen to get up without waking Kanda. And that's the last thing he wanted to happen.
Kanda sighed, leeching to the warmest blanket he had ever held in his life. Usually he woke up cold and somewhat grouchy, but the warmth was...comforting...though it was strange, the raven could have sworn that he felt the blanket breath.
Then yesterday flew and hit him in the face, all the way up to Lavi's...assult. But Lavi snored, loudly...this wasn't Lavi (thank God) so...Kanda opened cobalt eyes and realized that he was face to face with Allen. Who was currently blushing like mad.
"Well, I guess this is good morning, huh?" Kanda blinked, yawning, but keeping his mouth closed while doing so. The last thing that Allen needed was a nice hot whiff of morning breath...
