I don't know why but I feel I went COMPLETLY off topic with this chapter. It doesn't feel like the rest and might be a bit hard to understand. I hope it isn't and that you enjoy it! Also, I'm sorta proud of myself for adding more dialogue. Yay!


Chapter 6- Explanation (Of Sorts)

Kanda was pissed. Allen was happy. Cross was…well, he was surprised, intrigued, and slightly weirded out.

Later on in the day, Cross had come home surprisingly sober and had caught Allen making Kanda do chores. The house was absolutely spick and span. It was no surprise seeing as how the dark-haired teen lived alone and was used to having to clean.

Allen was the same, as he had to deal with Cross's messes, but it felt good to take a break.

Kanda nearly exploded when Cross walked through the door. To be seen in such a humiliating costume by a man who lived to torture others. "Idiot apprentice, explain what the hell is going on."

Allen smiled to himself a bit and answered. "Well, as you can see, we have a new maid!" Cross shook his head. "I meant why the hell is it the damn kid from across the hall?! Why couldn't you have picked a cuter girl or something, someone like that idiot scientist's younger sister? You know, uh what's her name…Lenalee!"

Kanda wanted to take the broom he was holding and whack the older man with it up top his head. His patience breaking, Kanda snapped. "Is that what the fuck you're so damn upset about?! That I'm not female? I apologize but I don't have those body parts. I'm 100% guy!"

Cross was taken aback. For some reason, the younger teen couldn't hold back his laughter. "What the hell are you laughing about, Moyashi?" Allen had to take a few breaths in between his words.

"It's just-breath-you don't realize-breath-Master has already accepted you like this-breath-"The angered maid looked at him in confusion. Allen tried to explain. "Master thinks you're a girl. An ok cute, but very masculine girl." Both Kanda and Cross stared at him.

"So you're telling me…

he thought I was female!?"

she's a guy!?"

They spoke in unison till the end. The younger teen wanted to break into another laughing fit but he knew this time, it would result in his death. "Yeah." Was all he managed to say.

Kanda gripped the broom tightly and it began to bend down the middle while Cross took a bottle of wine out from the cabinet near him. He sighed and took a giant swig straight from the bottle.

"Child, you've got a bit of explaining to do." Realizing to trouble he'd gotten himself into, though it wasn't necessarily his fault, Allen sat down slowly on the couch. "Kanda, you should probably sit too." "Tch" was all that he did to respond.

Kanda dropped the now broken broom on the floor and plopped down on the couch as far away from Allen as he could manage. The older man stood where he was.

Normally, Cross would have done the same as Kanda, dropping on the couch, but he was in a weird mood. Allen was about to start speaking when he noticed something.

"Uh, um. Kanda? I suggest you close your legs and pull your dress down." The older teen's face flushed red as he quickly slammed his legs together and yanked to the hem of the skirt down.

Allen felt a desperate need to tell him how cute his reaction was but, realizing what he was thinking about, fought hard against it. Seeing as how there were no more distractions, Allen attempted to begin his explanation again.

He started off with Cross's misunderstanding. "Master, as I've just told you, Kanda is a guy." The older man huffed. "I already know that. Just explain why he's in a maid costume, why he's in this apartment, and why the hell he looks like a girl!"

Kanda stayed silent. He was officially in apissy mood. He felt no desire to speak or even yell. Allen noticed and continued on. "Well, I guess I'll start with dinner."

The apprentice explained about the contest that they had held and how he won and what the rules at the end were. Allen didn't seem to notice but Cross looked a little proud when Allen explained it was a drinking contest and that he remained sober the entire time. He continued his explanation of how they went to a costume store and got the maid costume. That brought him all the way to his current position.

"Okay. So I got the first two. Onto the last." The older teen had not said a single word but finally decided to speak.

"I, for a fact, am not female. I have not one idea as to how the hell you could have thought I was a girl. I mean, how many times have you seen me? A lot! I get dragged to this damn apartment frequently and you're here most of the time getting freaking drunk!" Allen suddenly noticed something.

Drunk? That was it! "I know why!"

Kanda, clearly not happy to have been interrupted, glared at the silver-haired teen. "What is it?" Cross asked. "Why you thought Kanda was a girl. It's because every time you saw him, you were drunk. Master, you may have not noticed but you have the habit of mixing up gender when you're not sober."

Cross blinked. Kanda softened up his glare. Allen waited for someone else to say something.

Then, Cross just sighed. "Well, whatever. I just wasted time that I could have spent torturing someone, with booze, or a woman." He set the now empty wine bottle onto the table and walked right out the door.

Allen was a bit scared of what might happen next. He sneaked a glance at Kanda to see the young man with his eyes closed.

"K-Kanda? Are you okay?" Allen slowly got up and moved closer to Kanda. His eyes didn't open until the silver-haired teen was about one step away from being directly in front of him.

"I'm fine, Moyashi." He was strangely not mean when he said these words. Allen felt relief wash over him.

"Thank goo-" He was about to finish saying thanks when a sudden wave of dizziness overtook him. He swayed a little and then dropped down to the floor, fainting.
