Allen's POV:

---

Oh dear God.

As soon as I saw him, it felt like the world hated me and wanted to torture me. I gulped and smiled nervously. The devil incarnate in front of us grinned evilly. And I know that that grin was especially for me. My eyes trailed downwards and found his left hand.

Oh.

I introduce to you judgment. That thing is my master's favorite gun. He even named it for goodness' sake!

"Well, well, well, if it isn't bean sprout. I see you haven't changed a bit…" His grin grew wider. "I meant that literally; you're still short."

Go die in a hellhole. I wanted to scream that so badly if it weren't for that stupid gun in his hand. He then kicked me aside and went in. After that, he threw his bag at me. He threw it hard and the bag was loaded. I grumbled and put the bag aside. Really, what did he bring with him?

"Oi, stupid apprentice, get me a wine."

My left eye twitched. "Why don't you get it yourself, master?"

"Why can't you be hospitable?"

I glared at him. "Sorry, I didn't think you were a guest."

"Ahem." A voice interrupted our argument. "Allen, why don't you get him a drink?" Alma turned to master. "Hello Cross, it's been a long time."

"Ah, Alma, You've grown into a beautiful—"

"—ah, and you still sugarcoat every single word of yours," Alma said dryly. I snorted. Of course he does. He's Cross Marian. He sugarcoats every single word when it comes to the ladies. But when it comes to men or 'pests' like me, he will hot hesitate to say what's on his mind. But that's better. I mean, if he will sugarcoat his words when talking to me… that will just be um…Un-master of him. (Was that a word?)

Imagine Master saying good stuffs to me and complimenting and being nice and ugh…

"Blech." I shivered. What I just thought was not good for my brain.

---

I sighed and glared at master. I was forced to seat in the floor because master kicked me out of the sofa, literally. I grumbled angrily and stood up. Bakanda was there in between of Alma and Master, Alma was sitting and watching television as if there wasn't any pervert near her, Master was putting on quite the poke face while glancing sideways once in a while at Alma and Tyki was just there smoking.

We then heard thumping of feet.

"Tyki! Tyki! Look at them! Aren't they pretty?"

I turned to see Road skipping out of the room and dragging along Lenalee and Maricar. My eyes nearly popped out. Lenalee's usual pigtails were curled and she wore a black dress. There was a choker on her neck too. I immediately thought she was cute and very princess-like. I smiled. Though, she was unlike other princesses, she was independent, smart and strong. I grimaced at that. I once heard from Reever about how much of a strong kicker Lenalee is.

Maricar wore a dress too. She wore long sleeved dress with lace on the edges of the dress; there were also laces on the neck part. Her dress was colored black and red.

"Ooh, you're into Lolita fashion Road?" Alma suddenly asked.

Road snorted. "I don't think I gave any clue." Her words were dripping with sarcasm. "Anyways, Lolita fashion fits the both of them!"

"Uh, okay, so can I take it off now?" Maricar asked. "It's very, very, itchy."

"On one condition—"

"Not again…"

"Go shopping with me."

Maricar blinked. "That's all?"

"The Earl never let me go shopping on my own," she said, huffing. "He said it was like over feeding me with sugar when letting me shop on my own."

"That is true." Tyki interrupted.

"I suppose it's harmless to go with you." Lenalee rubbed her chin. "Fine, it's a deal."

"Just get back an hour before the concert starts." Tyki reminded her.

Oh yeah, the concert. I almost forgot about it. We have rehearsals later. I then nudged Lavi, . "Hey, we have rehearsals later for the concert."

"Nnghh…Huh? What?"

I rolled my eyes. "Have you forgotten?"

"No, I still remember." He stood up. "Tonight will be very, very tiring I bet."

"Speaking of the concert." Tyki then approached me. "Boy, do you know why we are here?" When I furrowed my eyebrows, he sighed. "Okay, I'll tell you. Actually, your manager asked us to have a surprise performance."

Kanda glared at him. "What?"

"You can't complain." Road rolled her eyes. "It's already been done anyway, and we're here. Nothing bad is going to happen."

I snorted. "As if, with the twins with you, I bet that's impossible."

Jasdero smirked. "Don't you have any trust at us at all?"

"Hihihi." Debitto tittered. Those two were the troublemakers of the band.

Alma rolled her eyes. "The names Jasdero and Debitto don't go well with the words peaceful and quiet."

"Hey we can be quiet too!" Jasdero said.

"Yeah, you two are quiet…when sleeping."

"True…"

"Don't kid around Alma." Road huffed. "Those two can't keep their mouths shut even when sleeping. Their snores keep us from sleeping. That's why we sleep earlier than them."

"And just who are these two gorgeous women?" A voice suddenly cut in.

Ugh. It's master again. "It's none of your business master."

"Yes it is. If there are beautiful women involved then it is my business," He replied smirking. He then approached the two. Lenalee looked at him curiously while Maricar eyed him suspiciously. Lenalee then nudged Maricar. The latter raised a brow and crossed her arms.

"Ah, hello lovely ladies." Master flirtatiously smiled at them. "May I know your names?"

Lenalee rubbed her chin. "You look kinda familiar…"

"Come to think of it, we have met you somewhere…" Maricar trailed off.

"Dears, I am Cross Marian—"

"Aha!" Lenalee snapped her fingers. "We saw you before on brother's office. Brother talks about you sometimes but when he does, he is usually mad or annoyed."

"I'm surprised you could still remember that Lena." Maricar gave her an amazed look. "We were only eleven years old at that time. I think."

"It seems like a lot has changed throughout the years. I've never thought that those two children would grow up this beautiful," Master said. I glared at him.

"I suppose not. You're still as flirtatious as ever Mr. Marian." Lenalee pointed out.

"And if you're expecting us to fall for your charms, then don't get your hopes up. Komui told us about you. He practically trained us how not to fall for your charms." Maricar snorted and rolled her eyes. "Besides, you're like ten years older than us. Hitting on us is creepy. Very creepy."

"So could you please step away from Lenalee master?" I groaned and glared at him.

"Boy, learn how to share."

I fought off the blush threatening to appear. Am I that greedy? Mana always taught me to share but when it comes to Lenalee…I just can't. I just care for her really. And I like her too. God I sound like a dope. And I'm pretty sure what I just said to master was very cheesy and clichéd. Now I'm thinking too much.*

"Anyways, Road, if you want us to come shopping with you then we'll have to take off these clothes now." Lenalee told her. "I bet this would be hard."

Maricar frowned. "No kidding."

"Oh come on, follow me." Road grabbed their wrists and dragged them back to the bed room.

My eyes followed Lenalee. She suddenly looked back at us and smiled. I smiled back even though it may not be for me.

Tyki then stood up. "I'm going out for a stroll and to buy cigarettes too."

"I'm going to the lounge." Master stated. "Bean sprout, take care of my baggage."

I snorted as they left the room. He'll just go flirt with other women, of that I'm a hundred percent sure. I sat down on the place where master just sat on. Alma took Bakanda's laptop that was on the table. I peeked and saw her sign in on Yahoo. I shrugged; maybe she was going to check her mail. After a few minutes, Alma tapped my shoulder.

"Hey guys, I have question for you."

I looked at Alma. "Go on."

"What do you usually like in a girl?" Alma asked us. I raised an eyebrow at her. "Don't worry, I'm not planning anything. I'm just answering a question here in Yahoo. A random fan wanted to know what you guys liked in a girl. And I really need points."

"Just describe yourself." Kanda muttered with a slight blush on his cheeks.

Lavi grinned. "Of course I'd like a girl with a hot body but, it's the personality that still matters of course. I also find it quite cute when she pretends to be strong and hard to get. If I really like a girl, it probably won't matter to me if she acts like a boy or if she doesn't wear skirts and dresses."

"Is that girl a friend of ours?" I asked him with a teasing smile on my face.

"That's a secret." He put a finger to his lips. "And bean sprout, it's time for you to answer."

"I like a girl who always smiles."I told them. "I like it when a girl is strong and cute at the same time. I find it cute when she blushes or whenever a twinkle appear in her eyes. I also don't care whether she's older than me. I don't usually care about a person's physical appearance but I like a girl with violet eyes. A girl who punches or kicks hard may be a turn off to some guys but I admire a girl who can defend herself, especially through kicks."

"Like Lenalee?"

"Yeah like…" I stopped myself from blurting that out. I glared at Lavi. He just grinned mischievously. "Stupid rabbit."

"You could've just told us to describe Lenalee." Alma rolled her eyes. "It would've saved time." She typed in a few words and the clicked enter. After that, she clicked on the touchpad and then stretched her arms. She then rested her head on Bakanda's lap.

My stomach then grumbled. "I guess it's time for breakfast." We then went to the kitchen and searched for food.

"Do we have anything on the refrigerator?"

"I want eggs, fried rice, fish, chicken, potato, pasta—"My mouth was then covered by Alma's hand.

She glared at me. "Hold your horses, don't eat too much. You might have constipation."

"Trust me, we have seen bean sprout stuff food in his mouth in different amounts and not once did he have constipation." Lavi said and then stuffed a piece of bread on his mouth.

Alma turned on the stove and Lavi and I exchanged worried glances. Alma seemed to have noticed it because she told us. "Don't worry; I've been learning how to cook."

After Alma finished cooking, we called Lenalee, Maricar and Road. Lenalee and Maricar were dressed casually, ready for shopping. We all sat in the table and ate. After that, we cleaned the plates and got ready to go to the concert hall. I was pretty sure we were going to rehearse there.

"Bye Lenalee." I told her and smiled. "Be careful of Road, she's mischievous."

She giggled. "We'll do our best."

After that, we went on separate cars. I stared at the car Lenalee was in until it disappeared from my sight. Now, how can I court Lenalee?

Lenalee's POV

I'm still shocked and happy about what Allen said to me last night. Actually, I tried my best not to squeal every second. I never thought that Allen liked me back. It was too good to be true. Frankly, I was afraid that I would wake up and find that it was just a dream. But this morning proved that this was reality. I tried to not blush every time he was around. I probably looked like an infatuated teenage girl. Well, I am a teenage girl infatuated with Allen Walker.

I felt someone tug at my hand so I turned my head. "H-Huh?"

"Lenalee." Road whined. "Don't lose your focus! We're going to watch a movie first!"

"I thought we were just going to go shopping." Maricar furrowed her eyebrows.

"We have lots of time!"

I frowned. "But Road, we might not make it on time—"

"Trust me," She said. "Come on, I want to watch a movie. I haven't gone out for ages!"

I shook my head as we headed to the cinema for tickets. When we got there Maricar volunteered to buy the tickets. Road and I on the other hand bought the foods and drinks. I turned around and saw some people staring at Road. She stared back at them and then glared. They shuddered.

"What do you want?"

They left and I looked at her. "Impressive."

"It's necessary." She shrugged. Maricar approached us with three tickets on her hand. Road grinned and dragged the two of us inside.

The movie was good; we didn't even notice that an hour had passed. I stretched my arms and yawned. It was 12:30 but we still weren't that hungry. Road then decided it was shopping time already. Once again, we were dragged by her. We immediately went to the women's section.

"I think this would fit you perfectly!" Road exclaimed and twirled. "And this skirt will look cute on you Maricar!"

"Don't you have enough dolls Road?" Maricar asked.

She replied, "Pfft, like those will be enough. Besides, it's rare for me to have life sized dolls—oh there!"

We tried tons of dresses chosen by Road. I think this won't be as bad as Allen said.

"I can't feel my arms."

"I can't feel both my arms and legs."

We were currently sitting on a bench. That took longer than we expected. Road also bought clothes for us. And all of them were dresses. It's not that I hate dresses but it's not like we can wear all of this. With Road, that was possible but once she leaves, we probably won't be able to wear any of these. And I prefer skirts. These dresses limit my leg coordination. It was hard to run in a dress.

"What time is it Mari?" I asked her.

She glanced at her wristwatch. "1:45 pm." Her stomach then growled loudly. "Ugh! I'm so hungry!" She then rubbed her belly and slouched. I smiled. It was pretty nice that she wasn't thinking about the incident. It was depressing to see her curled up in a ball and not talking. It made me feel responsible for her. If I only understood how she felt earlier and if I had done something then maybe, that wouldn't have happened.

It was kind of amazing how she could set aside her past and put it all in the back of her mind. If you compared the Maricar now who was slouching and had an arm over her forehead to the Maricar who once tried to kill herself, you wouldn't think that they were the same person. Though I was happy that she was able to let go of the past, I wished she talked to me about her feelings. Keeping all of your emotions by yourself was bad for your health.

"Lena, I know what you're thinking." I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at Maricar who had a smile on her face. "So stop it, I've never liked being pitied."

"I'm not pitying you…I'm just worrying for you."

"I also hate being worried about," She said and then stood up. Maricar stretched her arms and then smiled. "Come on, I'm starving, let's call Road."

"Sure." I smiled back and stood up too.

We found soon found Road, still buying clothes. But this time it was for herself. She continued asking us which dress was better, which shirt was cuter, and which shoes suited her more. Maricar just shrugged and I pointed to what was attractive to me. After we paid the clothes with Road's credit card (Yes, Road has a credit card provided by the Earl) we headed straight to a restaurant.

Suddenly, a random thought entered my mind. "Isn't the concert tonight?"

"Yeah," Road answered. "Why did you asked?"

"Nothing." I dismissed it before they could know my true intentions. Actually, I was planning to buy something for Allen. I wanted to give it to him after the concert for you know…erm…congratulations on their successful concert. Yeah! That's it!

"Damn, who am I kidding?" I muttered. "I couldn't act even if my life depended on it."

"Hm?"

"Nothing!"

Road eyed me suspiciously before taking a bite of her strawberry shortcake. She brightened up and took another bite. It was quite adorable if you asked me. Though, I wondered, wouldn't she get a toothache if she ate dessert before the main dish?

As if she read my mind, she answered, "I won't get toothache. Skin eats more sweets than I do and his teeth never ache."

"Then he must have some teeth," Maricar said and then took a bite of her pasta. I nodded in agreement. I wonder if Road and Tyki's family were as weird as they described. I shrugged and decided to eat.

Ah, I was full. Road paid (again) and even gave tip for the waiter. We left the restaurant. We were going to go to the parking lot when a man suddenly blocked our way. He was big, muscular and had a deep voice. He looked like once of the henchmen of a villain in the movies.

"Miss Kamelot, your presence is requested by Sir Mikk," The big guy said.

Road just crossed her arms. "Gee people, we were already going to the car!"

"Oh, Road, I forgot, I'm going to stay here longer," I told her. "I wanted to buy something."

"I'll come with you." Maricar said. "I'll just be bored watching those guys rehearse."

"If you say so." Road shrugged and left with the man.

Maricar turned to me and raised an eyebrow. "What did you want to buy?"

I blushed. Uh-oh, it looks like I'm cornered.

---

Allen's POV

I already thought of something. Actually, I thought of this while rehearsing a song. I suppose it was weird but that didn't matter. I got an idea and that was what mattered. I returned the microphone to its stand and grabbed a bottle of water.

"You know, for someone like you, you thought this out well." Alma commented.

I frowned. "I don't know whether that was a compliment or an insult."

"It's a compliment."

"Then thank you."

I rolled my eyes and got back on stage again. "Let's rehearse again. I want this to be perfect."

"Don't overdo it bean sprout," Lavi said. "Your voice might get hoarse."

"And then you'll make a complete fool out of yourself." Bakanda added.

I glared at them. "Just do it."

"Sure, sure."

I smiled and grabbed the microphone. I swear Lenalee Lee, you will never forget this night.

Later 6:30 pm.

I took a deep breath and smiled at the mirror. I then glanced at the bouquet of flowers on the table. I smiled.

"I sure hope you'll like this Lenalee." I whispered and smiled again.

"—OH YEAH BABY!" Lavi suddenly barged in.

"What's with you?"

"TICKETS ARE SOLD OUT! WAHOO!"

"Be quiet will you." Kanda glared at him and took a seat. Alma trailed behind him, rolling her eyes.

"It's not like this happened before." Alma said.

"Yeah but, I'm still glad." Lavi replied and sat. He then fixed his hair. I then realized something.

"Hey Alma, do Maricar and Lenalee have tickets?"

"Huh—" her eyes widened and she hurriedly grabbed her phone. She then went out of our dressing room. Damn, what if they didn't have tickets? Then all of this would go to waste! Think positive Allen, think positive. I looked at the door worriedly.

"—tickets?"

"Yes! Do you—"

"What are you doing bean sprout?" Bakanda asked.

"As much as I wanted to argue right now, I really need to know whether Maricar and Lenalee have tickets."

Lavi sat up straight. "What do you mean?"

"I'm not sure whether they have tickets or not."

"You idiot! How could you forget them of all people!"

"Don't point that finger at me Lavi!"

"Will you two shut up?"

"Now what will we do if—"

"I don't know!"

We heard the door open but we ignored it. The three of us just continued to bicker. Alma went in front of us and yelled:

"SHUT UP!"

We all went silent. Okay, Alma was fuming. Alma Karma was fuming. This wasn't good. I gulped and stood up stiffly. Lavi did the same and Kanda looked guilty. See the effect of a fuming Alma Karma on us? It was scary, yes, I know. She looked at us in the eye and glared. Her hands were on her hips and her face was almost red.

"You three better shut up right now or there won't be any concert due to the band members' injuries." She threatened.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. But with Alma, it was hell hath no fury like Alma pissed off. Right now, we all agreed on that.

Alma massaged her temples. "Anyways, Maricar and Lenalee somehow found tickets on their bags. I've got a feeling Road put it there."

"I suppose I have to thank Road later." I muttered. She glared at me.

"Yes, now would you three stop fighting?" She asked us angrily. "And I'm not kidding when I said the threat. I'd even call Komui to help me with it."

"Yes ma'am." Lavi said stiffly. Kanda muttered an apology and escorted Alma outside. Alma sometimes experience migraines. And it always appears on the most unexpected situations.

I recalled what Alma said about Maricar and Lenalee. I sighed in relief. It was good that she can make it to the concert. I was going to do something special for her. I smiled; well, wish me luck.

3rd person POV

The fans were roaring loudly. They held up banners and pictures of the band members. They were excited too. They were so excited that they went to the concert hall five hours earlier than the time the concert was supposed to start. There were some who managed to snatch themselves the front row because they waited earlier than everyone else. There were also some who were at the very back, unable to see much because of the people in front of them.

Allen peeked at the crowd. He frowned. Where was Lenalee? He shook his head. He shouldn't panic. Maybe there were just too many people that he can't see her. He looked for girls wearing pigtails. One…five…ten…eighteen…twenty eight…Crap! Just how many girls wore pigtails today? He continued looking. Then suddenly, a hand was placed on his shoulder. He turned to see who it was.

"Hey bean sprout," Lavi said, not caring about how much it annoyed the other. "Get ready."

Allen nodded and looked for the last time at the crowd. He sighed and left.

After a few minutes, the lights all turned off. The fans screamed and went wild. The whole concert hall was foggy. They then heard electric guitars being played. The fans searched wildly, looking where the music was coming from. When the fog disappeared, there was no one on the stage playing the electric guitar. Then the music stopped.

"Japan!" A loud voice boomed. "Are you ready?"

Recognizing the voice, the fans squealed. The spotlight revealed Lavi's location. He was standing on the railing with an electric guitar. He grinned sheepishly. "Aw, you found me." He jumped off the railing and landed on the floor on both feet. He then ran to the stage while the fan girls desperately tried to touch him.

When he reached the stage, someone played the bass guitar this time. The spotlight moved around and the fans followed looked around too. The spotlight stopped on a man playing the bass guitar. The man raised his head and then glared at the fans. The fans still screamed for him. Kanda stopped playing the bass guitar and then went to the stage.

"Tokyo Dome!" Another voice boomed. "We can't hear you!"

The screaming became louder. Someone emerged under the stage. Allen grinned at the crowd and said, "We're going to perform a song in Japanese just for all of you. One, two, one, two, three go!"

Lavi and Kanda started playing their instruments. Allen nodded his head to the beat and when it was time for him to sing, he smiled.

2 hours later; In a train

Lenalee was glad that the Japanese people were nice and friendly. She and Maricar didn't know a single thing about speaking Japanese. Sure, maybe Maricar knew a bit. But she only learned by watching anime and reading manga. She then looked worriedly at her wristwatch; the concert already started 2 hours ago. What if they didn't reach them before they end their concert?

The train halted to a stop and so did her mind. She looked at the girl named Arisa. The girl nodded her head. It was their stop already. Lenalee lightly shook Maricar who was about to doze off and stood up. Maricar followed them and looked at the surroundings.

"Here, I'll help you go to Tokyo Dome. You might lose your way," Arisa said in Japanese accented English.

Lenalee nodded. "Thank you. We owe you."

Arisa smiled. "You're welcome and you don't have to repay me."

"But you helped us. Let us do something in return." Maricar insisted. Then an idea entered her mind. "How about we give you the autograph of the Black Order Band?"

"T-That would be nice but it isn't necessary," Arisa replied.

Lenalee replied with a smile. "Then it's a done deal."

The Japanese girl led them to the entrance of Tokyo Dome. It looked like they weren't allowing anyone to go in anymore. Lenalee then spotted someone with spiky hair. She squinted and tried to take in the characteristics of the man. Spiky hair, huge eyebags, brown vest, white polo shirt…Reever!

Lenalee dragged Maricar and Arisa towards him and happily greeted him, "Reever! We're here!"

The man sighed in relief. "Thank goodness you came! We were worried!"

"We kind of got lost." Maricar sheepishly admitted. "But Arisa here helped us!"

"Thank you so much."

"It was nothing."

"Arisa, you come with us after the concert and wait for your autograph." Maricar told her. "Reever, find a way to get her in."

"That can be taken care of." He replied. "Go in now. You've missed quite a lot on their performance. The Noahs performed Hot Mess and Nice Guys Finish Last."

"That must've been an awesome performance." Maricar said.

"Let's go. We wouldn't want to miss anymore of their performance right?" Lenalee said and dragged them along inside. She was very excited. She continued to run while clutching the paper bag on her left hand.

When they got inside, the boys were about to play solo performances. Kanda had an acoustic guitar and then put the microphone a little closer to him.

Bucket full of tears
babe you know I'm here
I'm here waiting

Close your precious eyes
and just realize
I'm still fighting

For you to be with me
and sit under this tree
and we can watch the sunrise,
we can watch the sunrise

Kanda then glanced at Alma who was smiling. His corner lips twitched.

Wake up feel the air that I'm breathin
I cant explain this feeling that I'm feelin
I wont go another day without you

I know it feels

like no ones around
but baby you're wrong

Just get rid of the fear
promise that I'm here
I'll never be gone

Alma could feel the tears on the corner of her eyes. She wiped them off. Damn her boyfriend, he just had to choose a song that would certainly fit their relationship.

Wake up feel the air that I'm breathin
I cant explain this feeling that I'm feelin
I wont go another day without you
Without you

Hold on I promise its gets brighter
and when it rains I'll hold you even tighter
I won't go another day without you
Without you

This is me tonight
no more games and no more lies
and I know its right
cause of the way you look

into my eyes
and when I hold you tight
the worries disappear I'm glad you're in my life

Wake up feel the air that I'm breathin
I cant explain this feeling that I'm feelin
I wont go another day without you

Hold on I promise its gets brighter
and when it rains I'll hold you even tighter
I won't go another day without you
Without you

And I won't go another day,
Without you

After saying the last line, he looked gently at Alma. Alma mouthed a thank you and flinched when the fan girls screamed louder. The next one to sing was Lavi so the fans squealed louder again. Maricar then stopped in her tracks to listen to the redhead's song.

I'll hold the door
please come in and just sit here for a while
this is my way of telling you
I need you in my life
It's so cold without your touch
I've been dreaming way too much
can we just turn this into reality

Maricar scoffed. Just who was he trying to impress? With that song…okay, maybe the song was good but with the voice…okay, the voice was nice too. She then tried to fight the blush that was threatening to take over her face when she remembered that she was the one who stopped in her tracks to listen. But who wouldn't listen to the charismatic—that came out wrong…

Cuz I've been thinking 'bout you lately
maybe you can save me
from this crazy world we live in
I know we could happen cuz you know
that I've been feeling you

Storms they will come but I know
that the sun will shine again
he's my friend and he says

that we belong together
and I'll sing a song to break the ice
just a smile from you would suffice
it's not me being nice, girl this is real tonight

Lavi searched the crowd for her. It was hard, considering that most girls here had long, black hair. He just wished that she would be able to listen to this song.

Cuz I've been thinking 'bout you lately
maybe you can save me
from this crazy world we live in
I know we could happen cuz you know
that I've been feeling you

I know you want me

There's no other, there's no other love
that I'd rather have, no
There ain't no one, there ain't no one else
I want you for myself

Cuz I've been thinking 'bout you lately
maybe you can save me

from this crazy world we live in
I know we could happen cuz you know
that I've been feeling you

I know you want me

Cuz I've been thinking 'bout you lately
maybe you can save me

from this crazy world we live in
I know we could happen cuz you know
that I've been feeling you

I know you want me, too

I know you want me, too

"And that is dedicated to you," He said and then winked. "It's up to you guys to guess who I'm pertaining to. And up next is Allen Walker who will sing his heart out to his someone special."

"Thank you very much Lavi," Allen said sarcastically. "Was that really necessary?"

Lavi replied, "Of course bro."

Allen rolled his eyes and positioned himself. He took a deep breath and smiled.

Hi
Girl you just caught my eye
Thought I should give it try
And get your name & your number
Go grab some lunch & eat cucumbers

Why, did I say that?

I don't know why.
But you're smiling' & it's something' I like
on your face, yeah it suits you
Girl we connect like we have Bluetooth

While singing, his eyes wandered elsewhere. He kept on searching for the pigtailed Chinese girl. His eyes landed on a girl moving around. She seemed familiar. Wait, was that Lenalee? His eyes widened when it was confirmed that it was Lenalee. Maricar was beside her. He grinned.

I don't know why
I'm drawn to you
could you be the other one so we'd equal two?
And this is all based on a lucky chance
that you would rather add than subtract

You & I
Could be like sonny & cher
Honey & bears
You & I
Could be like Aladdin & jasmine
Lets make it happen

La, la, la, la, la, la

Hey
how've you been?
I know that it's been awhile.
Are you tired cause you've been on my mind
Runnin' thousand & thousands of miles
Sorry, I know that line's outta style
But you
You look so beautiful on this starry night
Loving the way the moonlight catches your eyes & your smile
I'm captivated
Your beauty is timeless never outdated

Even thought some of the lyrics were corny, they were true, to him. She always ran on his mind. She never leaves his mind. His smile got brighter and bigger. He got motivated to sing better.

Babe
it's been 5 years since that special day
when I asked you on our first date
I guess it's safe to say
that...

Lenalee couldn't help but smile. She wondered if this was for her. He never failed to make her smile. She kept her eyes on his. She couldn't help but blush too. She wondered how it felt like to date him. He would probably be the best boyfriend ever. She smiled fondly at the thought.

You & I
Are better than sonny & cher
Honey & bears
You & I
Are better than Aladdin & jasmine
We make it happen
Sing it
La, la, la, la, la, la, la

He kept his gaze at her and said, "Let me say…You'll look so beautiful on our wedding day."

And then somewhere else, a man named Komui couldn't help but feel annoyed.

Hello~
I'm back…I'm sorry…I've been neglecting my stories, I know (stop the guilt trip already!). But I promise you all, when the school ends, I'll update more frequently! Anyways, to make it up to you, I made this longer (or so I thought) I hope you like it! (Even thought its crap) And I know, I haven't improved on my grammar *cries* but I'll try harder! So I'll make a game, the first reviewer on each chapter (starting on this chapter) can ask a question and I'll answer (just not anything personal like my name)

I'll also ask your opinion on this: How do you think can I improve on Maricar's character?

P.S

The songs are Without You, We Could Happen, and You and I. All of those are by Filipinos. Please support them! They make good music that you rarely hear nowadays!

P.S.S

I cut the first song because I needed to skip to Maricar and Lenalee's time.
