“Good night, Allen.” He watched him leave, setting his tea down and picking up the book on his nightstand. He figured he’d just read a few more chapters before nodding off.
Allen made his way back to his room, stubbornly trying to ignore the growing anxiety he felt since he left Lavi. You cant just cling to him, hes fine, stop thinking about it…
He found his room and got ready for bed. As he turned off the lights, he wondered if he was going to be able to sleep at all, but once he closed his eyes exhaustion quickly took over.
‘Lavi, wake up!’
‘I cant hurt you!’
‘Don’t you recognize me…?’
“You were never my friend.”
Allen fell to the floor with a crash, twisted in his sheets. He struggled for a few moments, before he noticed he was in his room at the Order. His throat burned… had he screamed?
He fought his way out from the bedclothes, and leaned against his bed, trying to stop his shivering. After a few moments, he got up to turn on his light. He checked the time and groaned, he had barely been asleep for an hour. He wanted to find Lavi again, to make sure his memories of seeing him alive and well were not also part of a dream… But Lavi would probably be asleep by now.
I’m supposed to be able to deal with stuff like this, this should be nothing to an Exorcist…
He shook his head as he slowly remade his bed, then picked up a book. He probably wasn’t going to get any more sleep tonight anyways…
