"Good. Sorry to disturb you. Now go and get ready for the mission. Good luck." He added before Kanda could say anything else. The communication ended just like that.

Kanda frowned at the empty air.

So he have to look after the brat for the mission won't be jeopardize. Che, how annoying.

Not really.

Back to the present time...

"Kanda? Is everything alright?" Allen voice snapped Kanda back to reality, face few inches away from him as he approached the motionless man when he became unresponsive to his surroundings several minutes ago.

Kanda blinked a few minutes, face starting to heat up. Luckily for him it's already night and the room is not that bright for Allen to see his flushed face though he had no idea the boy had seen his expression as he was used seeing the dark but he made no comment about the latter's reaction as the proximity is kinda closed. Too much closed. "Yeah, I'm fine. Moyashi." Damn, he looks stupid upon being caught on staring. Kanda thought grimly.

"You sure?"

"Damn it! I said I'm fine now move!"

"Alright, Alright!" Allen back away and slumped back to bed.

"Get some sleep." Kanda ordered, noting the somber attitude that had befallen the younger Exorcist despite the lack of emotion in his expressive face that he thought he is the one who caused the changes in the boy which is half truth.

"Why would I take orders from you?"

"Che, you'll be a fucking hindrance in the mission if you can't focus." Despite the harsh words, Kanda helped Allen to get laid down in bed, dragging a sheet over the pale boy.

"Thank you." Allen whispered as his vision was overtaken by the darkness behind his eyelid. His voice is still cold but there's a hint of gratefulness there, An emotion.

Such a simple act can make your emotion stir just like that? I'll make sure that it won't be like that in the next time...

A voice in his head echoed as he drifted off into a dreamless slumber.

Kanda stiffened at the words fallen from Allen's plump pink lips. He hadn't expected that but it made him feel nice as if he had become the king of the world though he immediately shrug off that foolish thought.

'There's no way, Moyashi. Thanking me especially when he still mad at me and hated me at every fiber of his being. The only reason he does that is because he is acting strange.'Kanda reasoned weakly as he left Allen to sleep, busying himself with reading the reports Komui handed them as he hadn't read it before as his mind is solely focus on the silver-head exorcist in the past days.

"Hey, Lavi. Where's Allen-kun and Kanda?" Lenalee asked. She had noticed the two exorcist never shown up or seen them anywhere at the Order so she can't help to wonder where could they be.

"Oh, Yuu-chan and Allen-chan are both in a mission together." Lavi answered.

"Mission? Since when and where?"

"Three days ago and they were assigned in Iceland."

"How long will they stay there?"

"I don't know. Sorry"

"It's fine." Lenalee continue to sip her tea silently with a thoughtful expression. So, Kanda and Allen were both together in a mission,huh? She could only hoped that the two of them won't get into each other's necks; Regardless of that, Allen and Kanda always return with a success missions so she guessed it's alright to leave them be. But she really do wished they get along as their fighting and childish tantrums starting to irk her for some reason.
