Chapter 20- Proposal- Daisya's P.O.V
About ten days later, I was back from my mission, and speaking properly. The moment I stepped into the Order, I noticed just how hungry I was.
I walked to the cafeteria, hoping to see Lenalee. There she was! She was sitting across from the white haired boy. I forgot his name, so I decided to call him Beansprout.
"I see a Boo!" I yelled, not moving from my spot.
People started to tare at me, but I didn't care. I was only looking at Lenalee. Her back straightened, and she looked at me.
"Daisya!" She squealed, getting out of her seat, and running to me. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and buried her face into my shoulder. By pure habit, I hugged her back.
"I missed you," Lenalee whispered. I felt my heart beating like crazy, and I hoped that she wouldn't notice it.
"Look at the two love birds," Suman teased.
My face went hot, and from the smirk on the older exorcist's face, I knew that I was beat red.
"We're not love," Lenalee and I said together, letting go of each other.
Suman's smirk turned into a smile. "Whatever you say." He walked away. I mentally hit him on the head with Lavi Bookman Jr's giant hammer.
I looked at Lenalee who wouldn't meet my eyes. She was bright red, and holding her breath.
"You'll knock yourself out if you always hold your breath when you get embarrassed," I told her.
Lenalee looked up at me and opened her mouth to say something just as Marie walked past us.
"Suman was making fun of us," I said.
"Too bad,' He said. "Don't involve me in this."
"Somebody's in a bad mood," I said, pouting. "What's the matter?"
"The mater," Marie said, turning to me. "is that someone wouldn't let me get to sleep lat night."
I smiled wickedly. "You're welcome! Besides, it was worth staying up to see all those gorgeous girls walking around."
"I couldn't see Daisya," He said. "I'm blind; or did you forget that?"
I rolled my eyes as he walked away. I looked back at Lenalee, and that's when I noticed that she was staring at the floor again.
"What's so interesting down there?" I asked.
Lenalee shrugged without talking. I took her hand, and dragged her away to an empty hallway.
"What's wrong?" I asked, not letting her hand go.
"It's just…" Lenalee paused, as if she was trying to gather her thoughts. "I guess that I'm just jealous, that's all."
"Jealous of what?" I laughed.
Lenalee looked me right in the eye. A slight blush rose on her cheeks as she spoke. "Of the girls you were talking about. I guess that I'm just used to being the only girl in your world since Arisa died. It was silly and selfish of me to even feel jealous."
I rolled my eyes, and wrapped my arms around her waist. "This is going to sound stupid, Boo, so go ahead and laugh. You are the only girl in my world- even when Arisa was alive."
I couldn't help but think about how cute she was when she blushed. Her cheeks were a rosy pink, adding color to her pale white skin. I pushed a stray piece of hair behind her ear, making her blush even more.
"Lenalee," I said, my voice quiet and seductive. "Ever since I met you, I have always thought that you were cute. When Arisa and I got back from that three month mission, I thought- no, I knew- that were a dazzling sight. You have always been the one person who I wake up every morning to see.
"Over the last few months, I've been thinking a lot about what you mean to me; and I finally found that out. You are the only girl I have ever loved, and probably will always love. You're my Little Boo."
I dug my hand into my pocket, and found what I was searching for. I pulled it out. Taking a deep breath, I got down on one knee.
"Lenalee Lee" I said, opening the box to reveal an amethyst ring. "Once we are done with this war against the Earl, will you marry me?"
Lenalee's face turned bright red, and her jaw dropped. "Daisya," She said. I could tell that she was at a loss for words. "I-"
"What's going on here?" A voice asked. Lenalee and I both turned our heads to see Kanda leaning against the wall, his arms crossed, and an eyebrow raised.
I stood up, and glared at him. "We were just talking."
Kanda smiled slyly, and walked towards me. "We need to talk," He said.
Now it was my turn to raise an eyebrow. Kanda was never one to "talk". I handed the ring box to a still flabbergasted Lenalee.
"Lead the way," I said.
