I don't usually do this because I always forget but today I shall answer a questions. The most popular question right now is the age difference. Yes! There is a really big difference of 13 years but I think love can overcome anything. :3 My grandparents are 11 years difference, so in my opinion I don't think that age really matters and besides it's not like he's going to fall in love with a 5 year old, he'll only start falling for her when she's a lot older (but still OMG Rivaille you PEDO!). Eren and Rivaille are 14 years difference but I know most of you fujoushis still ship them 8D ERERI FTW! -runs-

"Are you really going?"

Rivaille and Lorenzo turned around to find Alice running after them. She stood there for a moment to catch her breath.

"Is it true that you two are really going?" Alice asked again.

"Yeah. We're going to get firewood, want to come along?" Lorenzo asked.

"Yes! Wait, no."

"So you don't want to come?"

"Yes! I mean yes I want to go but that's not what I was talking about. I heard from Nina that you guys are leaving."

"Oh that. Well we're already too old, the orphanage can't afford to keep us any longer and besides the place is getting too cramped."

"So you're really leaving?"

"Yeah."

"When?"

"Probably next week."

"Next week?! So soon?"

"I'm really sorry, we meant to tell you earlier."

"No!"

"Huh?"

"No! You can't go!"

"Bu-"

"Both of you can't go! You can't leave!"

"Alice…"

"You can't because I say so!"

"Stop all these nonsense." Rivaille who was quiet all this while spoke.

Tears began to well up in her eyes.

"I don't want you to go…" She started sobbing.

Lorenzo bent down and pat her head.

"You know it's not like we'll never see each other ever again."

"Really?"

"Yeah, even if we leave we were planning to stay somewhere nearby. So, that means we can come visit you when we're free."

"Promise?"

"Of course. Right Rivaille?" He turned to his friend.

"Why are you asking me?"

"Come on, don't say that. We can't leave our little sister behind can we?"

"Who'd want a snotty brat sister like her?"

"That's right! I don't want an older brother like him! Besides, he's more of a mother than a brother." Alice teased.

"What did you just say?" Rivaille glared at her.

Lorenzo burst out into laughter.

"What are you laughing at idiot?"

"I'm sorry, it's just that what she said was so true."

"I dare you to repeat that." Rivaile threatened.

A dark murderous aura surrounded him.

"But it's true!" Lorenzo said.

"Why you!"

"Come on, let's stop playing around. We need to get back to work."

"Lorenzo, you piece of shit. Don't change the subject."

Lorenzo began running into the woods nonchalantly.

"When I catch you I'm going to beat you into a bloody pulp." Rivaille said that and began chasing after his auburn friend.

"Hey, wait for me!"

Alice held onto her straw hat, making sure it didn't fall off her head as she chased after them.

A few days later…

"Where are we going?" Alice asked.

"Somewhere special." Lorenzo replied.

"Why do I have to keep my eyes closed and why am I riding on your back?" She asked again.

"Because it's a surprise."

"How much further?" She grumbled.

"Just shut up! We're almost there." Rivaille said in a disgruntled tone.

"But you said that 10 minutes ago!"

"Lorenzo, just dump the kid."

"Both of you just calm down. I know! Let's play a game."

"What are you 7?" Rivaille asked.

"I'm 6!" Alice replied.

"It's a metaphor." Rivaille replied.

"Alright! So are we playing the game or what?" Lorenzo asked.

"I wanna play!" Alice shouted.

"Hey, keep your eyes closed." Rivaille said.

"Eh?! But it's boring."

"You know what will be a good game?" Rivaille asked.

"What?"

"Who can keep quiet the longest." Rivaille said.

"Eh? That's not fun!"

"How about you try to guess where we are?" Lorenzo asked.

"How am I going to do that with my eyes closed?"

"You can try."

"Hm, ok."

She closed her eyes tighter and concentrated, perking her other senses. She sniff the air.

"I smell pine, I can hear birds, I feel like I'm going to fall off. We're in a forest, walking up hill!"

"Not bad. Quite the detective, aren't you?"

"Hehe."

"Oh we're here!"

"Can I open my eyes now?"

"Sure."

Slowly she opened her eyes, first to be greeted by the blinding blaze of the sun, she squinted and slowly opening her eyes to find a huge field of colors. Her eyes sparkled with awe she was speechless.

"Wah! So pretty! There's so many flowers!"

Slowly, Lorenzo let her down.

"Want to go check it out?" Lorenzo asked.

She nodded with a smile on her face.

"Race you there." Alice said as she ran down hill.

"Hey no fair, you had a head start!" Lorenzo said as he ran after her.

"Tch, kids." Rivaille clicked his tongue as he walked towards the field of flowers but just for a short moment something like a smile was formed on his face.

"There's so many different flowers here!" She said as she began running through the sunflower fields.

They were so tall that she was instantly invisible as she moved around, they only way to spot her was through the swaying flowers.

"Hey Alice come here." Rivaille shouted.

Alice popped her head out between some flowers.

"What?" She said as she hurried to his side.

"Here." He placed a flower standing up on her hat.

"What's this for? I'm not a pot!"

"It'll be a pain if you get lost. With this we can find you."

"Eh?"

"Now that you mention it, your head does look like a pot."

"You big meanie!"

"Now run along now."

"Well, Well, you have weird hair!" (the best insult she could think of) Alice said as she ran away.

She disappeared into the patch of flowers again, but this time a flower that was constantly wiggling through the tall flowers was easily spotted.

"Rivaille!" Lorenzo shouted with fear.

"What is it? You're being noisy."

"You won't believe it! I-I think I ju-just saw a possessed flower! Look it's moving on its own!"

"That's Alice you idiot."

"Oh… What?! Alice is possessing a flower?"

"No! I stuck it on her hat so that she doesn't get lost. Just how dumb can you be?"

Lorenzo mumbled as he laid on the grass, he started gazing at the sky. The clouds slowly drifting freely in the big blue sky. He didn't know when but he soon drifted into slumber and into the realms of dreams.

Lorenzo's POV

Onii-chan!

It was a familiar voice, all too familiar.

Lyanna?

Onii-chan… it hurts… Onii-chan…

Hang in there! I won't let you die. Lyanna stay with me.

Onii-chan, promise me one thing…

Hey, don't say stuff like that. You're going to be just fine.

Please from now on… live for yourself… for my sake.

What are you talking about?

Thank you, Onii-chan… for protecting me… for everything… I love y..ou…

Lyanna? Lyanna?! No! Don't leave me! Please open your eyes… I don't want to be alone… I don't have anyone else…

"Lorenzo! Lorenzo!" A voice called my name in the far distance, it got louder each time. Until I finally snapped out of it. A shadow of my friend hovered over me as I slowly opened my eyes.

"What?" I moaned, my voice sounded hoarse after waking up.

"Are you alright?" He asked me.

"What do you mean?"

"You were talking in your sleep again."

"I'm fine."

"You were crying too."

"S-shut up." I said as I wiped the tears from my eyes. I was a grown man, it was embarrassing for someone to see me cry.

"Is it the same dream again?"

"Yeah…"

"You know, I don't really know about the details but you shouldn't blame yourself. I'm sure she'll be upset if she saw you moping around like this."

"Yeah, I know."

"Anyways." He got up and dusted the dirt off his pants, he turned to me. "Let's go home it's getting late."

"Yeah. Let's get Alice." I got up from the ground. "Alice! We're going home now!" I shouted.

There was no reply.

Maybe she didn't hear me.

I shouted again but once again I was replied with silence. My heart began to quicken.

"Alice?" I called out, this time my voice was shaking.

"Lorenzo?" Rivaille looked at me with a worried expression.

My feet started running, toward the direction of where Alice should have been. My heart beat gradually got faster, cold sweat started trickling down my face. I began pushing aside the flowers and frantically screaming her name. I felt a hand grab my shoulder, I spun around.

"Lorenzo. Calm down. We'll find her."

But I ignored his advice, my voice was starting to crack, tears were forming in my eyes. My face had a panic expression plastered on it.

"Boo!" Alice shouted as she popped out.

I stared at her frozen for a while. She giggled.

"Scared you, didn't I?"

Without uttering a word, I ran up to her and embraced her.

"Lorenzo-nii, I can't breathe." She muffled.

"Where the hell did you run off to?" Rivaille said in an angry tone.

"Don't ever do that!" I shouted, I don't know why but I did.

"I'm sorry. I only wanted to surprise you." She said as she buried her face into my chest.

"It's alright but don't do that ever again." Slowly I released my grip on her.

"Lorenzo-nii, why are you crying?"

"Eh?" I touched my face, true enough there were tears streaming down my face. Her small hands gently wipe them away.

"I'm really sorry. I won't do it ever again, so don't cry any more. Alright?"

"Alice you're a really good girl. You really remind me of someone."

She stared at me in confusion.

"Come on let's go. It's getting dark."

"Yup! I'm sure Aunt Nina is worried."

We started walking out towards the hill.

"Lorenzo-nii."

"Yeah?"

She lifted her hands up.

"Carry me. I'm too tired to walk."

"Alright. Hop on." I bent down and put her on my back.

"You're spoiling her, Lorenzo."

"It's fine, she played all day I'm sure she's tired."

After walking a for a few minutes. Lorenzo looked back on his shoulder.

"She fell asleep. She must be really tired."

"Hey, Lorenzo." Rivaille spoke.

"Hmm?"

"Stop for a moment."

"Why?"

"Just do it."

"Alright."

Rivaille went up to Lorenzo. He pulled out the flower that was still stuck on to Alice's hat and tucked her hair behind her ears and placed it in behind her ears. Then he started walking again.

"Ho. She does look really cute like that."

"Don't get the wrong idea, it just looked so ridiculous that I couldn't stand it."

"So why did you put it in her hair?" Lorenzo teased.

Rivaille walked away, ignoring his question.

I can't think of anything else to say, so bye-bye everyone. Reviews are always welcomed :3 and also don't be afraid to ask any questions, I'll answer them all (If I remember). :D

Oh wait! There is a question I need to ask everyone. How old do you need to be to join the Trainee Squad? I deduced it to about 12-13 years old but then again I'm stupid so I might be wrong ._. Please tell me if you know the answer. . You can either PM me the answer or type it in the reviews.
