Lin went back to the garden to tidy it up a bit. Just to get rid of all the weeds and dead flowers. She grabbed the weeds and pulled them out. She climbed up the cherry blossom tree and wrapped her hands around a cluster of dead flowers and she used a deep, hidden magic, even more powerful than her innocence, to give life to the flowers. When Lin was born, she had the power to heal and protect the ones she loves. She can only channel it when she needs it. She went around all of the trees and healed them. She then took a nap under a tree.

Lin woke up to find Allen carrying her to her room. She liked this. Having someone carry her. She went back to sleep. They got to her room and Allen placed her on the bed. He left her to sleep. Just as he left, Lavi was in her room. He saw her sleeping. He looked at her drawings of her party and of him. She had put in a lot of detail and it almost looked alive. Lin turned in her sleep and Lavi left.

The day started to slip into the night and Lin thought it was time to get ready for bed. As she did so, Lavi entered her room without knocking. He saw her bare chest and saw her burn mark. Lin was more upset that he saw her burn than him barging in. That sear had ruined every relationship she had ever had. People called her a witch, a demon and an akuma because of her curse. She turned her back on him, showing her wings. He walked closer, spun her round to face him and touched hef burn. He smiled at her. "Lin, you don't have to be afraid of showing people this. Or me. I love you, scars and all. I would never hurt you." Lin relaxed slightly. They both leaned in for a kiss but a knock came. "Lin. It's Allen. Are you okay?" He asked. "Yes Allen. I'm about to go to sleep. Good night." She said. He left her with Lavi. They kissed deeply, causing her wings to activate and make her match his height. She pulled away and Lavi left. She went under the covers and slipped into sleep, dreaming of Lavi.
