After that incident, All of the students that were accomplice to this bullying were given a punishment which is suspension...
Ever since that day, Allen have decided to show his true self more and be the usual- Narcissist and hot headed self...in those changes, He also became blunt and tactless and gladly... The friends he found thinks that he is just being funny.
Their name is Tom Katze and Jerry Souris. The two of them were in the same class as Allen and are both handsome and nice...
There were times that they would stop his words if he is going over-board and is hurting someone's feeling... Allen have indeed found some great friends
There were some people who adore him in the past but became his haters. In the bright side, he found peoples that likes him as he is.
It was worth taking the risks and this way is more enlightening than before...
The man who was surrounded by fake friends who approached him, out of wanting to be also famous...Is now surrounded by real friends who accepts his flawless self...Tho, He won't admit it to himself and would always think that he is always perfect...
Aria started to avoid the girls that were her 'friends' and just watched anime in her seat that is near the window, During their break times... Aria would always watch her favorite animes and would also hang out with Allen and his friends...
The Ring was still in their finger and they found a way that is really convenient for them. They would only buy half of a meal and share it through magic... What enters to their mouth will re spawn and would enter to the other one's mouth!
This applies to everything! If ever they want to pee, or want to let out some wastes, All most of everything that they do!... What they can't ever share is their feelings and emotions... Some things that only happens to boy and a girl's monthly period. Even if Aria would bleed a lot, Blood won't appear to Allen...And seems that their heart beating so fast is also an exemption.
If they are in the Dream, Everything seems a lot more normal... They can't share their thoughts, the pain caused inside the dream can't also be shared...
Now, During their lunch...Aria and Allen, ordered half of the same menu...
Their way of eating has a pattern... At first, They both put a small amount in their mouth... and then.... after eating it, one of them would take another bite wile the other one would pretend to be still chewing it. The pattern goes on, Until their meal is all eaten...
Tom and Jerry would mostly laugh and make fun of them because of their weird way of eating...
Allen who is a really hot-headed person would react violently...But instead of being afraid... Tom, Jerry and Aria would laugh out him more...
Jerry went to Allen's side and patted his back..
"People would provoke you more if you get angry, Allen //Wink//" Jerry says this as a friendly advice
As Allen hears this, He tried his best to calm his anger down...
(Looks like someone who could tame you has finally arrived.//Huhuhu//) Aria says this using telepathy as she looks at him with a very amused face...
This has become their daily routine...
After school, They would always play at the arcade.
Tom would play a game where he catches some fishes with different scores accordingly to their size...
Jerry would always play a game where he has to avoid some traps to reach a certain treasure.
Allen would always play in a crane machine and would mostly take home a lot of prizes...They even have spare bags to put the prizes into...
Aria plays *Street Fighter* and would always win. She even was given the title as a 'Queen' in the *Street fighter* game...
Many have tried to challenge Aria and a bidding has even started. Every participants that challenges Aria would always win...
Morons who couldn't accept a girl winning in this kind of game, Would always vote to the challenger and would always lose a lot of money at the bidding
After playing in the arcade, The four of them would go in a restaurant and would eat some delicious Hamburger...
As the four of eats, They would talk about the things that has happened since the start of their day ... Everything that has happened was just so fun even with some unlucky things that happened to them... In the end of the day, they just laugh it all out...
After eating, They would escort Aria safely back to her home. Allen, Tom, and Jerry would go home afterwards...
On their way home. They would stop at a nearby park to discuss about something, Secretly...
Not even Aria knows about this... Allen was so careful in everything that he thinks about, and everything that he says in front of her...
The air between them was filled with tense...They all look so serious as they discuss about this thing...
"There were group of girls earlier that were following us..."-Tom
"Earlier, When we opened Aria's locker. We saw a lot of black mails and garbage that some girls must have putted in there... "- Jerry
"What's inside the mails?"- Allen
Jerry and Tom opens their bags and takes out a lot of letters that they took from Aria's locker...
Inside the letters were full of threats and strong hatred towards Aria...
*You're such a FLIRT.*
*Wanting to be surrounded by a lot of handsome men... You're Such a SLUT!!!*
*Die!!! Go To Hell!!!*
*UGLY*
*Two-Faced...GO TO HELL*
Those were the kind of things that were written inside the letters that they took from Aria's locker...
All this time, They have been keeping it from Aria. They want to protect her from the haters...
After discussing about it, They would go home.
(Inside their Dream)
"Hey Aria...What would you do if you got yourself some haters and they always put garbage and threat mails in your locker?" Allen ask Aria as he wants to know how would Aria feel if she would have haters, but he didn't tell Aria anything about what was happening...
"I don't mind it at all...I don't care of how much they could hate me for all they want. Because, i already got myself some people that thinks and care for me... That alone is enough for me. " Aria says this to Allen with a smile
"If those things are part of the way in showing my real self...Then i think that following what i really want is really worth the risk!" Aria says this as Courage is burning in her eyes...
At that moment, Allen realized that they were the same. They both want to change for the better! They are trying their best to break of the mask that everyone only sees and want to show what's really behind the masks...
"You've become strong..." Allen says this to Aria with a smile that he doesn't usually shows...
"Yep! and I'll protect you even though you're a jerk." Aria says this to Allen, with a smile
"WHO NEEDS PROTECTION FROM WHO???" Hot-headed Allen was activated...
Aria laughed and laughed until they woke up...
Morning has come, and a new day is about to start...
(At Aria's bedroom-)
"The letters in Allen and my locker has gotten less...Huh?..." Aria says this as she takes out some letters that she puts in her bag and burns it all down in her backyard...
"Allen really made me freak out when he asked me that question last night....//Sigh//"
"I'm really glad that these letters are getting less...Did they finally decided to stop?" Aria says this out loud so that Allen would never know about the truth...
It is indeed a plot twist...Allen thought that he was protecting Aria and Aria thought that she was protecting Allen. But the truth is that they are being protected by each other...
(At Allen's House)
Allen ,Tom, and Jerry is currently having a video chat...
"My big brother is helping me with finding the ones who wrote this letters" Allen says
"Hmmm...that's good."- Jerry
"Allen...we're not there right now but we hope that you didn't burn the letters out of anger..."- Tom
"I Know That!!! WE NEED IT AS AN EVIDENCE RIGHT???" Allen says this angrily and was doing his best to lower down his voice
"But...Are we really going to tell Aria about this?" Tom asks in doubt...
"She has the right to know. And i think that Aria is not just like any other girls that needs to be protected." Allen says this proudly
"Even though you said that..."- Tom says this as he face-palm his self...
"You were the one who started Aria protection squad tho..." Jerry says to Allen
Allen was trying his best to hide his embarrassment...
After that...They went to school, As Usual. They did the same routine as any other day... Before they noticed it...The school time has already ended.
"So where are we guys going to hang out?" Aria asks
"Aria... Can we go to the park...We got something to tell you..." Allen told Aria with a serious facr and the four of them went to the park...
Allen, Tom, and Jerry took out the the letters that they got from Aria's locker... Aria was shocked for when she thought that the ones who writes those letter were slowly stopping, it was actually taken by them...
Aria then, explained her part...
Aria was collecting all the letters of both her and Allen's and was putting it on her locker... Half of the letters that they collected was actually addressed to Allen...
"But! When we read the contents, they are all addressing to a girl!!!" Allen shouts out of confusion
"There were rumors going around that you are actually a gay and decided to show your true self..." -Aria
Everyone was shocked for a second and Tom and Jerry were both laughing out so hard...
"WHOSE THE BASTARD THAT SPREAD THAT???" Allen shouts out furiously...
Aria then, started to laugh too...The laughter continued for over ten minutes...
They decided to went home afterwards and Edward found about it and couldn't stop himself from laughing...
A few days later, the persons that were behind those letters were finally identified...Some of them were involved in the previous incident and was decided to be kicked out from the school... the others were given suspended.
The incident made them promise to each other that there are no longer secrets that they have to hide from each other and rely more to each other.
