6 Allen(2)

"Someone's in love on their first day of school" Allen looked to his side only to see a friend from his previous school who also happened to be his classmate now. He was teasing him.

He saw Allen's embarrassing side which Allen has never shown anyone before. Allen, however, immediately reverted back to his old indifferent face without saying a word. His friend clicked his tongue when he got no reaction from his teasing.

"Well that's boring. Still can't believe you really transferred here."

Despite Allen's awkwardness in front of people, there were still those who tried to decipher him. Although, no one was completely successful in doing so, he really appreciated people who still talked to him.

"Tobias..." Allen wanted to ask him so much about the guy he saw just recently. The one who grabbed his hand. He just didn't know how to ask and whether or not Tobias even saw the guy he'd be pertaining too. But still, he wanted to know.

"That guy...who is he?" Allen pointed to the guy walking towards the high school building, who was already so far away but luckily Tobias could tell.

"Ah, Him? He's the normal guy no. 1" Tobias was a social butterfly unlike Allen so of course he'd know that guy's name. He just felt like teasing Allen some more so he didn't tell him. Tobias felt like there's something more to Allen asking about the normal dude.

"Normal guy...no. 1?" Allen knitted his brows in confusion.

"Yeah, and his friends are called normal guy no. 2 and 3, You'll get used to it soon, that's how things go here. 'Ya gotta make a name for yourself." Tobias already started walking towards the building. Allen followed him because they were supposedly classmates.

Allen already felt like he was being teased. He narrowed his eyes and grabbed Tobias' right shoulder from behind. He really wanted to know that guy's name. For some reason, he wanted to interact with him more. Which was so opposite of his character. But he couldn't let this chance go away.

"Volumes 1-10 of your favorite manga, not lending it and I'm not selling it either. I'll give it to you, all of them" Allen knew how to make use of his luxuries. He felt embarrassed by this side of his but before he could even contain himself, he just felt like bribing the guy. Just to get what he wants.

"Seriously du—Ah no, give me Volumes 1-15." Tobias wasn't so bad either. He also knew how to take advantage of Allen's luxuries of mangas he never even read.

"Deal." Allen immediately answered. Hell, if Tobias even asked for his figurines then he'd give it to him. He just felt like he'd still be asking a lot more about that guy in the future. He wanted another trump card so he kept his figurine to himself.

This feeling confuses him. It was so not him, he couldn't recognize himself. But for some reason, he just can't get enough of such feeling. It's like, the more he knows about this guy, the closer he feels to him.

He wanted to know him better, he wanted to see that sun that wasn't so blinding at all. He wanted to cringe at himself for being so cheesy and embarrassing but just couldn't do it. He felt happy about this new feeling. And he wanted to feel happier.

"That guy's name is Kenneth, Class D, friends with Damien and Leonardo and they're known as the normal trio 'cause obviously, because they're normal. I wouldn't say Damien's normal though, he just got caught up in the wrong direction...Not sure why you're asking me this but tell me when I can visit your house for the mangas."

"..." Allen just nodded after hearing those information about Kenneth. He felt weird, like a tingling feeling inside his chest after knowing about his name. He wanted to grin but despised the idea of Tobias teasing him again. He followed him silently while thinking about his name.

Kenneth suits him, it has a very nice ring to it. Allen wasn't so good with names but he felt like Kenneth was made for him to call him that. Kenneth wanted to punch himself so much for thinking like this over some stranger he just met. He often obsessed over things he couldn't have. He was getting familiar with such feeling and tried to distract himself from such thought but he just couldn't help thinking about how his name suits him so much.

At this rate, he'd go crazy. He wanted to feel mire about the guy. He wanted to send more time with Kenneth. He felt like his sense of direction dulled just to meet him. He didn't want to disappoint the God that tried to bring them together so he already planned on meeting him soon.

"The weekend is fine." Allen wasn't trying to fool Tobias. He knew better, he wouldn't want Tobias to continue on nagging him about his promise of 15 volumes of his favorite manga.

After walking a few more steps towards the building he was suppose to enter, something caught his eye. Behind the gymnasium, he saw a vending machine. It wasn't a very common thing to have vending machines in his previous school. He stared at it from afar and formed a not so clever idea

Without saying a word and without him even knowing, he left Tobias to himself and realized that he was already walking towards the back of the gymnasium. He was aiming for the vending machine. Allen couldn't even stop himself from what he was about to do.
