Christmas sickness

NO, LENALEE!!

Wait. Wait! Wait wait! Lenalee, you can't- you can't-!!!

Lenalee, Moyashi and I will deal with this.

[hangs there, looking awfully vulnerable and tempting] ..! This thing is.. ow! [wince] My wrists.

[twitch] [ignores Lavi] WHAT? We wi- YES WE WILL, KANDA. LENALEE, DON'T WORRY ABOUT LAVI. [jumps up and gently nudges her in the direction of the exit] Here, you just leave through here...

[huffs] Allen-kun, I can help too, you know.

[turn]What should I do, Lavi?

Kiss me; it's mistletoe.

[GLARES AT LAVI]

[stands in her way and towers over her]

Lenalee. Please leave. Moyashi and I will handle this.

[turns a little red] I..

..I can help.

[glares at Lavi]

C'mon, Lenalee. Let's get you away from this pervert! [takes her hand and attempts to pull her out of the room]

There's no help needed today.

Allen-kun! Are you saying you will kiss Lavi!?

... [observes in silence]

...[flinches, but then hardens resolve] YES. I will. I will kiss Lavi. [turns toward him and narrows eyes]

[awed a bit by Allen's bravery] [sighs and steps forward]

Moyashi, get out of here and take Lenalee with you.

[wide eyes] K-Kanda! You-!!

[doesn't look at him] Go, Moyashi.

[eyes widen] G.. go ahead. [tries to hide growing smile]

I'll just get going, then? Have fun! [and is gone]

[stares at Kanda for a moment longer, and then hurries after Lena] Lenalee! Wait for me!

[looks at Lavi with arms crossed] [blank expression]

[blinks] I guess it's just you and me, then..?

.......Che. [uncrosses arms and walks closer] Don't get any ideas from this, idiot.

[reaches forward with one hand and pulls Lavi's head forward until their lips are touching]

[the mistletoe untangles in a slow motion, and Lavi stumbles forwards]

.. [red]

[steps back quickly and re-crosses arms]

You owe me a thank you, Lavi.

[turns around and heads toward door]

[moistens lips unconsciously] Thanks.. I owe you one, I'm guessin'. [touches back of neck]
