Define the saying of, "I love you"?

It is when a person says these three words towards the one he/she loves most, therefore expressing their love to them. First enters admiration, then the next confession, then the feeling of aphrodisiacs. Some say love is such a precious gift and people always say how sweet the emotion is. And what does a certain red-headed person, such as myself, think about this?

"I think it's stupid and ridiculous." I blurted out loud.

A sigh came from the old man and the next thing I knew was an impact, not to mention painful, was received on my already aching head, "Itai! What was that for?!" I shouted angrily back at the stupid panda.

"For being an idiot." The old man replied, I gave out a grumble for the insult, "Lavi, haven't you ever heard of these sayings?"

I gave out a snort, "The only sayings I heard them is from the books you showed me when I was a kid." It was true that I never did experience saying those 'I love you' stuffs. I know that kids always tell their moms and dads how much they love them but I never get the chance to say those things. Even when Gramps took me in, I never remembered what my real parents look like. No memories at all.

But besides that, I seem to recall the time when I had a mission with Allen. It was the time when we first met Krory-chan who was still living in his vampiric-like haunted castle. Even if he was a vampire, I am so not afraid of them, seriously. Anyway, we had to deal with these man-eating carnivore monsters. I was sort of in a pickle at that time since I wasn't fond of plants but luckily, Allen was able to come up with a plan. I was surprised when he told me that we had to say how much we love those devour cannibal creatures. Thinking about it gave me the shudders and yet, when I heard Allen's voice saying those (even if it was in a hurry manner) words, I began to find him somewhat attractiv- Woah. Wait a moment. What am I saying- no what am I thinking?

"Look Lavi, you're the 49th Bookman so you must understand this certain things. Even if the things I taught you, look useless you- Are you even listening to what I'm saying?!"

My eyes or rather my only left eye continued to draft over the book which was given to me. Seems like he noticed I wasn't listening to one of his lectures again. Talk about boredom, I wasn't in the mood to be lectured, "Yeah, yeah, whatever you say panda old ma-"

Another smack or rather a kick on my head.

After a few mutters and trying to rub off the sore bruise on my poor head, I stood up from my seat and grabbed what I was reading and was about to head off. "Where do you think you're going?"

"Someplace…where I can read quietly." I replied, not looking back at him.

"Ah, finally!" I stretched both of my arms as I sat down on the couch. The library was the perfect place where no one would bother a good-ol' Lavi! I gave out a sheepish grin to nobody but to myself. Everyone in the Black Order was too busy with their missions lately so no one was hanging about here. Komui seems to be not giving me missions lately, which is good since all I want is to relax from hunting Innocence and Akumas.

As I was about to continue in reading my favorite chapter, a certain someone with white hair caught my eye. Wait- Someone with white hair? "A-Allen?" I said just for him to hear.

True enough, the said person turned and saw me, "Oh, Lavi. What're you doing here?" He approached me, "Is this seat vacant?" Allen pointed.

"N-No! I mean, go ahead. Sit." I watched him as he sat before me. Damn it! Why do I begin to feel uneasy around him? "Uh, I haven't been sent on a mission so I'm just taking a break for now." I tried to give out a smile but I felt my cheeks twitching, which made me feel like an idiot. "So uh, how about you?"

He gave out a sigh, "Same. Kanda and Lenalee are out on a mission. Krory, Miranda and well, mostly everyone has gone out. But it's strange for Komui not to be giving me missions lately." Allen paused, "Hey what're you reading?" His azure eyes gazed at the book held in my hand.

"Oh, this? It's nothing. Just some dumb fiction book about some stupid crazy couple falling in love and such."

Suddenly, he grabbed the book from my hand and started flicking through the pages, "It doesn't look dumb to me. I think it's interesting when one's fallen for someone he/she likes. Don't you think?" With that, he gave me a smile.

Before I could reply, both of our eyes met. A tingling feeling filled inside me. The way he looked at me made me feel so soft and his smile, it was so gentle. I stared at him and my mind was too occupied in describing his beauty.

"Ah, sorry but excuse me Allen! I-uh, I gotta go!" I stood up quickly and ran away from him.

"O-Oi Lavi?"

I could still hear his voice, that sweet tender tone in how he said my name. "Ah, crap!" Major nosebleed ran down my nose. I wiped them off but the image of Allen was still running in my brain. Stupid brain! The more I thought of that moyashi (nickname copyrighted from Yu Kanda), the louder my heart beat became.

And the last thought that came to me was, I think I'm in lovhshffj with Allen Walker.

Note to self, never say the word lovhshffj.
