How it should have happened!

[windwaltz]

"If you do this, you won't be able to come back. They'll think of you as a traitor or a spy, the same as Allen." Komui had said. Well, she probably wouldn't be judged AS harshly as Allen, but it wouldn't look favorably on Lenalee if she up and abandoned the Order to chase after him. It was one thing to drag him back, but knowing what would wait for him if she did, she had no intention of doing so. And she had no intention of leaving his side once she found him either.

This... was not what she had dreamed of when she thought about the days of not being needed in the Order - when she and Allen could live together, even with Komui. But she didn't regret her decision. She did, however, worry about Komui once she left - because he would probably take the consequences for it. Sure he reassured her about it, that he would be fine - and that he would even follow as soon as he could, if he could -- lord knows they would be watching him like a /hawk/ if they didn't imprison him or something.

Was this really the right thing to do? Abandon her family for her love? Lenalee shook her head. Had to stop thinking like that. Komui was no fool, and he had his own allies there. He'd be fine.. besides, the dreams she had when she was able to sleep.. they worried her. frightened her, even.

No, that's a laugh. She hadn't been able to sleep properly since Allen took off. That's why she went out with the team to try and find them - but since they were called back, Lenalee couldnt help but disagree with the decision. Which is why she called her brother on a secure line and ..he already knew honestly. He knew she wouldn't agree to peacefully going back, after all she and Allen had been through.

So with her brother's blessing, reassurance and request that she convey his worries to Allen as well, Lenalee made an excuse that she needed to use the bathroom, and bolted the moment she was out of sight. Once she lost her pursuers, she would focus on searching for Allen properly. And pray (ha) she wasn't making a horrible mistake.

She was here, and she would always be, her smile widening fit to split her face in half as he pulled her as close as was conceiveably possible. Which she was more than fine with, tangline her legs with his so that neither of them could budge without waking the other. HOpefully neither of them would need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night!

[pierrot_martyr]

Allen wasn't even thinking of that and soon enough he would slip into the most deep of sleep he's had in months since going on the run. Completely unguarded and at Lenalee's mercy should she ever be awake when he wasn't.

[windwaltz]

Once or twice Lenalee woke in the middle of the night, but for no reason other than to remind herself of her beloved's presence. Seeing that sweet, unguarded expression of his was so utterly unfair, she couldn't help but stare and admire his face, her fingers drifting up to stroke his skin gently.

[pierrot_martyr]

Every time her fingers touched his face, he would smile a little brighter as he leaned into her touch on instinct. Honestly he was cheating even when not doing it deliberately it seemed. Such a dangerous lover to have.

[windwaltz]

Oh that was EVEN MORE Unfair! ".. honestly, how am I ever supposed to be able to keep my hands off you when you shine like this..?" she murmured softly, nuzzling into him to stay close and cozy. Of course she knew he'd never refer to himself as being able to 'shine', but he had his own light still.

[pierrot_martyr]

Allen smiled some more and nuzzled into Lenalee his warm breath tickling her soft warm neck as he remained under in sleep. He really did not want to wake unless he absolutely had to.

"mmmmmmnahmmmmmmm Lenalee....cute...apron...."

[windwaltz]

... hwa..? Cute .. apron? Did he want to see her in a cute apron then?

She wasn't going to wake him just yet - she wanted him to get as much sleep as possible before they would have to check out. She smiled softly at the feel of him nuzzling into her more, her hand gently stroking through his hair.

Hmmm... cute apron..

[pierrot_martyr]

Yes he wanted to see her in an apron. That was clearly the only reason he was having such a wonderful dream apart from his occaional nightmares.

Mmmmmm delicious....foood...nd you." Allen murmured deep in his slumber since this was a dream he wished would be more and more real. Because it was the closest thing to heaven.

[windwaltz]

If nothing else she was getting clues for how to surprise her beloved next. Shop for a nice apron and some food... although it might be some time before she could make him some food. Maybe buying some delicious food and presenting it to him while wearing an apron would still count. "Heehee, I had a feeling food would be in there."

[pierrot_martyr]

Honestly she probably still underestimated how much of an effect seeing her like that would have on him. Regardless Allen was none the wiser that he was feeding Lenalee all the ideas she would need to make him feel like the luckiest person alive in the world.

[windwaltz]

Lenalee certainly did - if she weren't worried about waking him if she moved, she'd sneak out to buy an apron right now. Though he was really making her not want to move and that could be ap roblem. So she nuzzled him a little to wake him up more. "Honey~~?"

[pierrot_martyr]

Allen tucked his head in a little at the attempt to wake him but in the end he sought out Lenalee's warmth instinctively so he leaned up to nuzzle against the side of her neck while hugging her even closer as he mumbled.

"Mmmmmmfimoreminutes'

[windwaltz]

Lenalee stifled a sudden sputter of a giggle at the endearing plea for a little more sleep. Well they could always take a later train... ah, no, she shouldn't get into that mindset this early into their traveling.

But...

Five minutes surely wouldn't hurt. She chuckled, drawing the blanket up a bit more to curl around him. "All right, five minutes, but only that." She promised, protectively curling her arms around him and nuzzling her cheek against him in turn. Five minutes of gazing at his peaceful, happy face - oh mercy.

[pierrot_martyr]

Heaven indeed but it would be upt to Lenalee to enforce that timelimit since Allen was far too comfortable to willingly rouse from his sweet slumber. This peace and tranquility was like an oasis to his affection starved self.

[windwaltz]

She really didn't want to wake him - she kind of felt guilty for doing so, but she was keeping to the timetable she promised him. Five minutes and no more. "Allen~.. Honey, it's time to get up now." Lenalee called, nuzzling him and starting to tug away to encourage him to wake up.

[pierrot_martyr]

Allen scrunched up his face with a grumble again since that sweet precious voice was speaking such painful words to his sleepy mind. In the end though he slowly opened his eyes for a moment seemingly forgetting who he had in his arms.

"Mmmwha?"

[windwaltz]

Lenalee smiled apologetically as he started to rouse, raising a hand to gently pet his cheek and through his hair, "It's morning, darling.." she whispered softly, "We have to get up." They could always sleep or simply cuddle more on the train if they wanted.

[pierrot_martyr]

Allen groaned sleepily before rubbing his eyes. And then his mind slowly caught up with the events of last night coloring his cheeks with a faint blush.

"Oh...that's right. All of that wasn't a dream...."

[windwaltz]

Lenalee felt herself blushing justin response to see the blush on his face. Which only reminded her of her request to introduce herself as Lenalee Walker. ".. none of it was a dream." She confirmed, watching him slowly wake up with a fond smile. It was so peaceful and quiet it really did feel like it was just the two of them in this world.

[pierrot_martyr]

"Mh. Well in that case I need to do something first." He nodded to himself before leaning over to press his lips to Lenalee's for a frew sweet and short moments before he pulled back with a serene smile on his lips.

"Good morning, Lenalee~"

[windwaltz]

Ah right he probably wanted to stretch since he'd been holding her in the same position for all night. Ooooooor a good morning kiss. Even better! Lenalee's lips curved into a warm smile as she leaned into the kiss, "Good morning, Allen.." she smiled back, almost giddily from the smile on his lips.

[pierrot_martyr]

Actually what he wanted was to not move at all and keep cuddling Lenalee until the heat death of the universe. Sadly they had a train or carriage to catch so that was simply not an option. Oh well he'd have to make up for it later down the line.

"I see you're shining today as well~"

[windwaltz]

That sounded like a wonderful idea too! Lenalee grinned at the greeting, nuzzling him happily, "Mmm, being able to wake up to you like this is all the reason I need to shine as brightly as possible."

[pierrot_martyr]

"There you go again, stealing my lines like that." Allen chuckled and suddenly he was squeezing that slender waist in his arms as ne nuzzled 'ferociously' against the back of her neck, getting his fill of her warmth and scent as much as possible.

[windwaltz]

Lenalee grinned at the accusation, only to let out a sudden squeal at the 'attack', bursting into soft giggles as she squirmed playfully in his arms, "Ack, Allen..!" She protested but not really, instead pressing a hand to her mouth to smother her laughter as best she could. Augh, even in the small things with him, she couldn't get enough of being close to him.
