A New Home

Silver  eyes opened up to see a plain white room, that Allen didn't recognize.  He didn't know where he was or how he got there, not at first anyway.  However, he then remembered everything that had happened. The teen  remembered that he had left with the Noah's but he must have blacked out  on the way there. He frowned as the thought about what had happened.

Allen  remembered the look on his ex-comrades faces as he was leaving with the  Noah family. There was a mixture of sadness, worry, anger, and  disappointment. Instantly he felt a wave of guilt and regret hit him but  he had to convince himself that it really was for the best. Who knew,  maybe things were much better now that he was gone.

With the dark  matter removed from Alma, maybe the two made up? As much as Allen  disliked Kanda, he certainly didn't hate him and it would make him feel  better knowing that he managed to be helpful. That wouldn't make up for  his betrayal but it did count for something. Of course, he wouldn't know  for sure since he wasn't there to see anything. Instead he was here and  would most likely be stuck here...

Tears started to run down as his  face as he curled up into a ball and closed his eyes tightly. This was  going to be his new reality but he couldn't take any of it back.  Obviously, he wasn't aware of the fact that Road had entered the room,  that was until she jumped on his bed. The sudden movement woke Allen  right up as he was now in a sitting position and his eyes were wide.

"Allen-kun,  you're finally awake," Road said cheerfully before frowning, "Wait...  you've been crying. Why are you so sad, Allen-kun? Aren't you glad to  finally be home? We've all been waiting for you, you know. So, cheer up,  okay?"

Allen didn't understand how Road could be so cheerful. Surely it was inhuman to be this happy...  Either way he just simply wiped his eyes and sighed. He looked down at  his sheets as he refused to make eye contact with her.

"Crying?  Who says I've been crying? I just teared up a little is all," Allen  commented, frowning deeply as he could feel Road move towards him and  wrap her arms around him, "Wait, what are you doing Road? I'm sure  you've heard of something called a personal bubble... Besides the only  reason why I agreed to be here was to save my friends. This isn't my  home."

Road was fully aware of Allen's 'personal bubble' but that  wouldn't stop her from doing what she wanted. After all, she was very  affectionate, especially with her family and Allen was family. The teen  was obviously down and she thought he needed a hug, so she simply  provided one for him.

"Oh, come on, Allen-kun... Don't be like that,  we went through a lot just to bring you home," Road said quietly as she  squeezed Allen tightly, "We aren't as bad as you think we are, we're  human, just like everyone else. I know you may not think it right now  but this is home, where you should have been all along! Now that you're  here I finally have someone that I can play with, too!"

"No, you  didn't want me here, you wanted the fourteenth here and we all know who  that is," Allen replied and shook his head as he struggled to escape her  hold, "You are all just using me, waiting for him to take over. I'm not your damn play toy either, so would you just back off already?"

Every  word he spoke was what he believed was the truth. Allen was only the  host of the fourteenth, not the fourteenth himself. At the least, The  Earl only cared about his 'brother.' Still, Allen didn't understand why,  considering the fact that the fourteenth blatantly said he wanted to  kill him.

"Road, he only just got here and you are already  bothering him? Surely you can tell that he isn't very comfortable," Tyki  muttered was leaning against a wall smoking a cigarette and shook his  head, "Why don't you go bother someone else, like the twins. I'm sure  they are willing to play whatever game you want to play, just nothing  girly... Shonen obviously needs time to take everything in."
