Chapter 10: We're off to Japan!
Hello everyone! I am so, so sorry for the wrong grammar from last chapter and I know there'll be errors in be here too, it's just that…. I don't have a keen eye. I know that most of you out there have a keen eye so please correct me if I am wrong with grammar or spelling.
I also wanted to thank those who reviewed last chapter and on chapter 8!
I DO NOT OWN D. Gray-Man, if I did, this pairing would not be fiction anymore.
As the days passed, Allen still can't stop thinking about that kiss, the kiss which he longed for back then, the kiss that made his birthday and Christmas his best day ever, the kiss that made him feel sparks, it was also the kiss that made him feel heaven. After his kiss with Lenalee, he then became so blissfully happy. Lavi and Maricar thought he was nuts, Kanda thought he was annoying, bothersome and short. (Allen didn't interjected about Kanda's comment on him being annoying and bothersome but he did argued with him when Kanda said he was short.) Alma and Lenalee on the other hand, thought he was cute.
Lavi heard the manor's phone ringing. He stood up from the couch and went to pick up the ringing telephone.
"Yo, who's this?" Lavi asked lazily and yawned.
"Lavi, this is Komui."
"Oh, hey Komui, what's up?"
"I just finished the meeting in Oceania; we're going to Japan next." Lavi's eyes widened when he heard a simple and small word from Komui.
"W-Wait, what do you mean by 'we'?" Lavi asked and emphasized the word 'we'. The man on the other line merely chuckled.
"Of course, you 3 need to go there too to answer the questions given by fans; it will give you more fame and more reputation. You know fan service. And you have a concert too."
Lavi knitted his eyebrows, "You didn't even told us we have a concert! And this is a bad idea Komui."
"Oh come on, you're the band's drummer."
"I have to think of an idea so I won't go there. I mean me, Allen, and Kanda in the same airplane, with just one pilot, one stewardess and no one else. Oh man, I wouldn't want that to happen… not after 'that'." Lavi said in his mind and shuddered violently. The band members sure do have some unforgettable memories. Then an idea entered his mind. This surely will make Komui to stop forcing them.
"What about Maricar and Lenalee? Who will take care of them? What if someone kisses Lenalee while we're away? What if Maricar hugged someone?" he asked, continuing his rant to Komui.
"OH NO! I will not tolerate that Lenalee will kiss someone and Maricar will hug somebody!"
Lavi cheered silently but suddenly stopped when Komui continued to talk, "Aha! That's it, Lenalee and Maricar will go with you so no one can touch them!"
"W-What? B-but!" This wasn't what Lavi wanted. He even used what he and Allen did to the two girls just to convince Komui. But Komui was a genius, a mad and crazy genius that is.
"Okay then! It's done, go to the airport today and the pilot will pick you up. Maricar and Lenalee shall be excused from school too! " Komui said in haste and hanged up. Lavi sighed exasperatedly.
"Someday, someday, I will get revenge Komui. Now, how do I tell them about this?" Lavi asked himself and accepted his defeat. Surely, the other two members would not like this.
::::Lenalee and Maricar's room::::
"Lenalee, what is the answer here?" Maricar asked, hoping her best friend would answer.
"Sorry, I don't know the answer to that question either, see?" Lenalee replied and showed her the number that has a blank. Maricar sighed went back to her homework.
"Hey Maricar, why do you think the reason is for Allen being so happy these days?" She asked while Maricar rolled her eyes. The Chinese was certainly unaware of the feelings the white haired vocalist has for her.
"Isn't it obvious? You and Allen kissed last Christmas," Maricar bluntly answered. Lenalee flushed red and lowered her head. She was going to say something but was interrupted.
"Guys, I have something to tell you!" Lavi shouted loudly that his voice was heard even in the girls' room. Lenalee and Maricar went down to the living room and sat on one of the sofas.
"What's this about?" Allen asked as he went down the stairs. Kanda went down next with an aggravated face. A not-so-friendly smile, dark and venomous eyes, glaring at Lavi and last of all, a scowl on his face, those things which are imprinted on the young Japanese's face made the redhead cower in fear.
"Komui called." Lenalee's face perked up and her eyes widened.
"Nii-san called? When did he call?" The Chinese girl asked curiously.
"Just a few seconds ago, by the way, he said something…" Lavi trailed off and smiled awkwardly. He smiled as if someone was forcing him to do so.
"What did he said?" Maricar asked him this time. The redhead definitely got the jitters on announcing this to them.
"Japan…"
"What about Japan?" Allen asked him.
"Interview and concert…"
"What do you mean?" Lenalee questioned him and moved closer to him too.
"A-Airplane…"
"Stop talking in incomplete sentences baka usagi." Kanda told him with a glare.
"Going to…"
"Oh please, you're making me impatient Lavi, just spill it out!" Maricar exclaimed and put her left hand on her hip while her other left hand was ready to slap him. On the other hand, Kanda now has Mugen in his hand.
"Okay! Okay! I'll talk!" the redhead took a deep breath and sighed; "Komui called and said that we need to go to Japan on our usual airplane."
"See, that wasn't much of a problem—wait! Did you say we will ride on our usual airplane?" Allen asked incredulously.
"No way am I going to share another plane trip with you two morons." Kanda stated and sheathed his sword.
"For once, the BaKanda had a point. I won't go, the last time was hell." Allen said and his right eye winced in pain.
"But Allen, Lenalee and Maricar are going too." Lavi said. Those words made Allen to stop his tracks and turn around. Ah, such magical sentences with the name 'Lenalee' will make him pay attention.
"Fine then, I'll go just to make sure you won't do anything stupid to Lenalee or Maricar."
"Okay then! I'm sure Alma will come too!" Lavi said while Kanda scowled.
"When will we pack?" Allen asked and took a glance at Lenalee and blushed.
"Today, we're leaving today. It's not like you don't know Komui, he always rush things." Lavi answered and went to his room.
"Um, Allen-kun, are you and Lavi sure about bringing us?" Lenalee asked him.
"Yeah, we have school to attend." Maricar added. Allen thought about that for a while but Lavi interrupted his thoughts.
"By the way, Komui said he'll excuse you from school to prevent boys from coming close to you!" Lavi shouted at them and went back to his room.
"Nii-san will never change right?"
"Yup, that brother of yours will never change Lena, oh, and Allen, you better stop staring at Lenalee." Maricar said and pointed out what the white haired boy was doing. Allen blushed at what the black haired girl said.
"I-I was not!"
"Oh, so you were just looking at her while blushing? That's the most stupid excuse I've heard from a guy Walker."
"Guys, stop fighting, we should pack too Mari." Lenalee interrupted their argument and dragged Maricar upstairs.
::::Maricar and Lenalee's room::::
Maricar threw her Geography notebook on the floor and slumped on her bed. Lenalee raised an eyebrow at her and said, "Why is your notebook on the floor?"
"I won't need it for a while." The raven haired girl replied and sat up. Lenalee noticed that Maricar took out her cell phone.
"Hello Lavi, how long are we going to stay in Japan? What bag are you going to use?"
"Why don't you just talk to me? I mean my room is just a few steps away considering my room is across yours."
"You haven't answered my question yet."
"Fine, I guess we're staying there for two weeks or so but I am not sure because Komui is our manager. Oh, you should use luggage too just to make sure, now you're—"
"Bye."
Lenalee rolled her eyes, "That was mean Maricar."
"You heard him, we should pack many."
Lenalee nodded and began to pack their clothers. Maricar got two luggages and helped Lenalee in packing. After an hour, the girls finished packing and changed their clothes.
"Maricar, Lenalee are you done?"
"Yup,"
"We need to go to the airport now." Allen answered. The door opened, revealing two beautiful girls. Maricar wore a white grey sleeveless ruffle bow blouse with black pants and white flat shoes. Lenalee, on the other hand wore a black turtleneck dress that reached the middle of her thigh. She also wore white leggings that reached her knees with black high heeled shoes. Allen, Lenalee and Maricar went down the stairs and went to the living room. Alma was there, wearing a white T-shirt saying 'I did it… but I'm blaming you!' She also wore black denim jeans.
"Here, let me carry that." Allen offered a hand on carrying the two girls' luggage. Lenalee blushed and stammered, "T-Thanks."
Allen smiled and took their luggage and put it in the car's trunk. Kanda got Alma's and put it in the trunk too. They went inside the car and Allen started the car. Lenalee, who was on the back seat of the car, put on her I-pod and started listening to the music, First
Love. While Maricar, on the other hand put on her headphones and did the same, but she listened to the song: Kremlin Dusk.
Allen took a glance at Lenalee, who was smiling while listening to the music. Her smile was contagious and eventually, made him smile too.
:::: Time: 6:00 pm, Lenalee's POV ::::
"Lenalee…"
An angelic voice called me. I was certain the voice came from a male. It sounded familiar and angelic. The voice made me feel heaven. It wanted me to hear it again. I was currently dying to hear him call me again.
"Wake up Lenalee, we're here…"
Here? Is the voice telling me we're in heaven? Well, I certainly feel like I'm in heaven because the voice called me again. I slowly and groggily opened my eyes. The first thing I saw was silvery gray. Wow, I really must be in heaven, although, I am not so sure about it. It's just a conclusion, but I wish my conclusion would come true. Then, I felt myself being lifted. I quickly shot my eyes open and sat up.
"Wait!" I heard Allen say loudly. I then found myself being carried by Allen-kun. I blushed and swiftly wrapped my arms around him, to prevent ourselves from falling.
"S-Sorry about that…" I mumbled, loud enough for him to hear. He smiled, "Don't worry Lenalee, it's alright."
He gently put down my feet and I mildly unwraps my hands from his shoulders and went down on the sidewalk.
"I'm sorry for what happened. You could say me and brother have the same habit of being deep sleepers. I guess I was hard to carry too." I admitted sheepishly. Allen chuckled while I blushed.
"No, no, you're wrong Lena," he told me, "Actually; you're as light as a feather. Now I know why Komui-san is force feeding you."
I blushed harder when he took my find and led me inside the airport. He dragged me closer to him and whispered, "Here, you should wear this sunglass to prevent the paparazzi and the photographers from knowing your identity."
I nodded and wore the sunglass. It was black like the other clothes I wore. When we entered the airport, paparazzi, photographers, photojournalists, and fans went closer to us.
"Allen Walker, is this your girlfriend?" a female photojournalist asked him. I felt hurt by the way she emphasized the word 'this'. She said it like I was a thing, and not a person.
"ALLEN! I LOVE YOU!"
"I'M YOU'RE NUMBER 1 FAN ALLEN!"
"KYAHHHH! YOU'RE SO CUTE ALLEN!"
"MAKE ME YOUR GIRLFRIEND INSTEAD ALLEN! I'LL LOVE YOU MORE!"
Allen-kun pulled me closer, making me blush again. We were attracting more people, which were mostly girls, by the seconds. I felt nervous so I lowered my head and gripped Allen's hand. Allen noticed my movement and smiled at me. His smile was so reassuring, so comforting. He didn't need any words to say that he won't let people hurt me. I smiled back while he wrapped his arms around my shoulder to keep me close to him.
"Lavi and the others are now in the airplane, we need to hurry up so stay close, and I don't want to lose you." He whispered to my ear and smiled again. Me either, I do not want to lose you too, literally. My trail of thoughts was stopped when I saw a familiar face. Oh no, it couldn't be her. I looked again at her to make myself sure whether that was her or not. It was her alright.
"Allen-kun, Ciara is here." I whispered to him and he looked at me.
"Okay then, don't worry, I won't let them hurt you."
"But this was my entire fault…" I said, clearly sad. He let out a soft chuckle. I looked at him as we continued to walk past the fans and reporter.
"Maricar was carried by Lavi too." I smiled at what he said and wrapped my left arm around his waist. He blushed at what I did.
"Let's get going then; I wouldn't want to be lost in this crowd, would I?" I asked him teasingly and we continued walking to the airport.
:::: 3rd person POV::::
"That's Allen Walker's girlfriend right?" a male photographer asked.
"Probably, she was also the girl who was shown in the news before."
"I knew it, Allen Walker does have taste in women." a paparazzi said and snickered.
"This will be on the front page of the news!"
"Act quickly everyone! We need to take a picture of her!"
The paparazzi, photojournalists, reporters and photographers then followed Allen and Lenalee.
"Allen-kun, I'm sorry about earlier. It was my fault why we got late in going to the airplane. I'm really sorry!" Lenalee continued to apologize to him. Allen smiled and put his index finger to her pink and soft lips that he once tasted.
"Shh, didn't I tell you it's alright? If you want my forgiveness, I already gave it to you. Don't worry about it; I'm used with the paparazzi and reporters. I won't let anyone hurt you too. Not the paparazzi, not the fans and most certainly not Ciara." He said so softly, yet his tone was demanding also that Lenalee went quiet. He smiled and tightened his wrap around her shoulders. Lenalee never saw Allen so protective about something. She smiled back.
"Thank you Allen-kun. I have to think of a way to repay you."
"No worries Lenalee, besides, I enjoyed staying with you there in the car."
She blushed at what the white haired vocalist said. Lenalee didn't even notice the involuntary smile that appeared on her lips every time Allen complimented her or made her blush.
"Our luggages are now in the plane. We should hurry." Allen whispered in Lenalee's ear. She nodded and they ran faster to their plane.
:::: Black Order's Plane:::::
The door of the plane opened, revealing Allen and Lenalee. They were panting and gasping and tired. The two went inside while the stewardess closed the door. Allen and Lenalee sat down next to each other.
"Yo guys!" Lavi greeted with a cheerful and goofy grin. Maricar was beside him fuming with anger while reading her book. She opened her mouth to say something but Lavi covered her mouth.
"I wonder what will happen if I shout out loud the word AR—"
Maricar's left hand covered the redhead's mouth from babbling. Lavi licked her palm making the raven haired girl groan in disgust. Maricar eyed the redhead and bit his hand.
"OUCH! Why the hell did you do that?"
"You're blaming me? You're the one who started it by licking my palm!"
"At least that won't leave bite marks on your hand!"
"But you did leave something! You left your germs damn it! Now my palm is infected with redheaded perverted germs! Only acid can destroy this!"
"NOOO! My beautiful hand is now unable to play the drums!" Lavi wailed and bit his lower lip. A book came then hit his read.
"Oh please Lavi, since when did you became narcissistic?" asked an annoyed Alma.
"You're too noisy Baka Usagi!" Kanda yelled loudly and stood up. The pilot then declared that they were now going to fly while the others continued to argue.
"GAAHHH! I hate you Komui!" Lavi yelled angrily while Kanda unsheathed Mugen.
There will be another chapter continuing this one. But who knows if Lavi will be in the next chapter? Will he still be alive?
Lavi: Please, please, please! I still want to live!
Me: Let me think about that okay?
Komui: Just be sure that Lenalee and Maricar will still be pure and innocent! …Or else…
Kanda: Well, Moyashi kissed—
Allen: Ahem! I think we need a tailor so a zipper can be sewed on Bakanda's mouth so his mouth can be controlled!*glares*
Me: By the way, we have something to tell all of you!
All: Advanced Happy New Year! Thanks also for the ones who reviewed!
Lenalee: I hope everyone can celebrate a happy and safe new year!
Me: If there are Filipinos who are reading this fan fiction, have a safe new year by not using firecrackers but instead let us just use hornpipes/trumpets or anything else that can make noise.
Allen: And reviews please! :D
