Angel: Hello again and welcome to the 4th chapter of my story.
Lavi: *still hugging Angel*
Angel: Lavi-kun I told you I won't die.
Lavi: I know but I'm comfortable.
Angel: *blushes* Anyways. I do not own D. Gray Man or any of the characters. ENJOY!!!
*Allen's POV*
"How is she doing Lavi?" I ask walking over to where my sister and Lavi were.
"Not very good I'm afraid," he told me and sighed sadly.
"It has been a week and Komui is still looking for an antidote for that powder. At least there was some powder still on her jacket or we'd be in trouble," I told him
"Yeah..," he said but I could tell he wasn't really paying attention. I looked at him with sad eyes. Out of everyone in the Order, Lavi was affected the most by my sisters decline in health. He stayed by her side constantly and only left to eat something when Lenalee, Bookman, or I told him to. I could tell he cared very much about her.
"La…vi…" Lavi and I jump and look down at Angel whose eyes were open.
"Angel," we both say.
She looks at me with those slightly focused eyes. "Nii-san?" she asks me uncertain if it was me.
"Hai, it's me Angel," I reassure her. She just smiles.
"Lavi-kun…. gomen-nasai," she whispered.
"What for?" Lavi asked her.
"For –ngh," she gasped and closed her eyes in pain.
"Angel just hang in there. Komui is still looking for an antidote, so please just hang in there," Lavi chokes on his words.
The doors burst open behind us and Lavi and I turn around to find Komui running into the room.
"Komui –" Lavi started but Komui interrupted him. "I found the antidote."
I watched as Komui walked up to Angel's bed and give it to her. She coughed and made a face.
"She'll be better in a few hours," Komui says to Lavi and me.
"Thank goodness," I sigh very relieved at this. I hear Lavi sigh in relief next to me and put a comforting hand on his shoulder.
*A Few Hours Later in Angel's POV*
I moan and open my eyes. I notice the white ceiling and the smell of disinfectant. I must be in the infirmary, I thought. I slowly sit up and notice a bright streak of red to my left. I turn to look and find that the streak of red belonged to Lavi and he was asleep. I smiled a small smile.
"Lavi-kun," I whisper softly shaking his shoulder. He slowly looks up and makes eye contact with me.
"Angel?" he asks sleepily rubbing the sleep from his eye.
"Hai," I say grinning.
His eyes widen and he sits up fully awake. "How are you feeling?" he asks.
"Better," I reply. "Ano…you…you actually waited for me to wake up?" I ask him remembering waking up to him asleep.
"Hai," he replied, "I wanted to be here when you woke up."
"Arigatou Lavi," I say blushing.
"No problem. Ya know you really had me worried there for awhile," he said sadly.
"Gomen, I didn't mean to make you worry," I tell him squeezing his hand lightly.
He sighs. "I know but still I…." he trailed off looking away from me and blushing.
"You what Lavi?" I ask puzzled at his actions. I then notice the blush.
"I-I …. I just don't wanna lose you because…I…I love you Angel," he says blushing even a darker shade of red.
My eyes widen in shock and I blush. My eyes then soften and I squeeze his hand.
"Lavi…."
He looks up at me and I smile.
"Lavi I love you too," I tell him.
This time his eyes widen and after a few seconds he leans in and kisses me. I return the kiss. We break apart a few seconds later.
"I hate to be inconsiderate but um.. I'd really like to leave the infirmary so…" I tell him.
He laughs and helps me out of bed.
"Where do you wish to go madame," he asks me with a smile on his face.
"How about the cafeteria? I am a bit hungry," I say laughing.
"Sure thing."
We leave the infirmary and head to the cafeteria.
*Cafeteria*
"Ahh.. Much better," I sigh eating the last bite of my ramen.
"At least you don't eat as much as your brother," Lavi laughs.
"True," I say laughing as well.
"Angel!" I look up to see Allen running towards us.
"Hey nii-san," I greet him.
"Figured you'd be here when I didn't find you in the infirmary. So how ya feeling?" he asks.
"Much better, thanks. We were just about to leave and head back to our rooms," I tell him as I get up and leave with Lavi.
"Okay see you later."
"Later nii-san."
As soon as we left the cafeteria, Lavi wrapped an arm around my waist and pulled me against him.
"Who said anything about you going back to your room? You're not going anywhere," Lavi said smirking.
"Lavi," I say blushing, "Where am I going to sleep?"
"My room of course," he tells me as he leads me to his room.
*Lavi's room*
I yawn and lay back on Lavi's bed.
"God I'm tired, guess my body is still recovering," I say curling up against Lavi.
"Don't worry just take it easy for a bit. You'll be back to normal in no time. Now let's get some sleep," he says gently wrapping his arm around me and kissing me on the forehead.
We fell asleep a few minutes later content with being near eachother.
