So, according to the latest chapters of D. Gray-man (spoilers incoming), Lenalee's Innocence is not a parasite type but a new “crystal” type. So, that was a jump to conclusions on my part so just pretend I didn't fuck up back there.

Rhode was stunned. Completely and utterly stunned. It was the answer she wanted, she hungered for, she craved. But right now, all she felt was disbelief. Had he really said it? Did he mean it? Was he just toying with her?
No.
The look in his eyes told her that his answer was pure and honest.
Allen Walker loved Rhode Camelot.
And then she fainted.
Blood Chapter 9
Rhode woke up around an hour later. Her head was throbbing lightly and it was taking her a moment to register where she was.
Must have hit my head, she thought to herself, Must've been right after Allen...Allen! She quickly sat up from her position on Allen's bed and looked around the room quickly to locate the cursed boy. Fortunately, she didn't have to look long. In fact, she practically didn't need to look at all since he had been sitting right next to her on the bed she lay on with a tray of sweets.
“I don't really know what you like besides candy,” Allen said with a smile as he handed her the tray, “so I just got a few extra sweet things with breakfast. I always order a lot so no one was suspicious when I said I'd be taking some of it to my room. Well, Lavi gave me a strange look when there was something I didn't finish immediately, but still, it's not like anyone followed me.”
Rhode was silent. She was simply staring at Allen. She didn't even notice her own stomach grumbling. It was a full thirty seconds before she broke the silence.
“Were you telling the truth?” she asked, “Did you really honestly mean it? Did you honestly find it in your heart to love someone like me, who's done horrible things like me, who goes against almost everything you stand for like me?”
Allen's smile didn't falter for even a second, “Yes, I meant it. And I do mean it.”
“Then say it,” Rhode said. Allen could swear, he heard just a hint of pleading in her voice, “If you really do, you won't have any problems saying you love me.”
Allen let out a light chuckle, “You should eat. I'm sure you're hungry, considering all the noise your stomach made (Rhode blushed slightly at the comment about her growling stomach).”
Rhode frowned through her blush, “Allen!”
Allen smiled softly at her then started to walk out the room. Rhode growled, grabbed a donut from the tray, and hurled it at the back of Allen's head as he neared the door. He quickly raised his hand and caught the pastry moments before it could hit him. He turned and smiled at the Noah.
“I love you.”
Rhode's heart skipped a beat as Allen exited the room and locked the door behind him to prevent anyone from discovering his secret. The Noah sat silently for a little while before leaping out of the bed and letting out a victorious “YES.”
Allen sighed as he began walking towards the infirmary. He was still worried about Bak, Reever, Komui, and the others who had been injured during the invasion and the attack of the level 4 akuma. It was true that none of them were infected by the akuma virus but they were still battered as hell and only human. They couldn't take the amount of punishment that an exorcist could. Though the amount of punishment Johnny took was almost beyond belief. He had been impaled, nearly devoured by a combined akuma, beaten, thrown around, and almost killed so many times. It was a miracle that he was still alive. Though the worst blow Johnny took was the loss of Tapp. Tapp had been turned into one of the Earl's skulls before having a hole put in him by the level 4 akuma then falling to dust in Johnny's arms.
Despite all this, his thoughts were still focused on the little girl waiting for his return in his room. Her and the doubts he couldn't force from his mind.
Is this really right?he thought as he walked along, Can I really fall for someone like that? What can come from a love between an exorcist and a Noah besides tragedy were someone to find out? The consequences of this kind of love...Is it too much? But...what can I do? I love her...and I can't change that. I have to be true to myself...and to her. I just need to find a way to make this work.
First thing Allen did upon arriving was check up on Crowley's condition. The man was slowly recovering from his confrontation with the combined Jasdevi but at least he was recovering. Next he checked on Komui, who was in the middle of crying out for Lenalee and bawling over the fact that she hadn't visited him yet today.
Maybe someone should tell him that it's only seven in the morning and that she's still asleep,Allen thought to himself as he handed Komui a tissue box.
Next stop was Bak, who was eagerly but silently also awaiting a visit from Lenalee. Komui had been somewhat of an obstacle in Bak's attempts to see her but now that they shared a room in the infirmary, Komui had no choice but to let the China branch's head see Lenalee lest he would deprive himself of her normal visits. Everyone was just praying that he wouldn't create yet another Komurin to somehow put an end to this.
Next was Johnny and Reever. Reever had been getting along fine but Johnny was having trouble staying still. Tapp's death had hit him sort of hard but he was managing to cope, much to everyone's relief. For now, he was confined to a wheelchair but he seemed able to continue, regardless.
His visit didn't last much longer. He said his farewells and generic “get well soon” comments before going back to assist with the rebuilding process, despite protests and threats of brutal physical harm from the head nurse. As he began to resume his work, all he could think of was how easily all this damage had happened.
Just so easily,Allen thought to himself, It was a message...He's telling us that he can kill us whenever he wants...Allen sighed, And if he can kill us...
“Rhode,” he whispered.
Yes indeed, Rhode was the one most at risk. Were anyone, any single individual to find out about what Rhode had done, only chaos and peril could befall either of them. The Black Order would try to capture Rhode, maybe even try to kill her or worse. And if the Noah or the Earl were to find out, she would surely die as the fourteenth had. And the only thing that could protect her from either side was him.
What have you gotten yourself into, Allen? He grabbed his forehead and groaned, Falling in love with a Noah...I must be out of my mind. I'm putting myself in more danger than ever before. And her...If anyone finds out, she's even worse off than I could ever be.
Allen stopped where he was and leaned his back against the nearest wall, brushing back locks of white hair out of his eyes and breathing deeply, What was I doing, just saying it so openly like that to her? It's too much. If I had just shut my mouth, I could have kept her safe, kept her far far away. It would have hurt but she would have been relatively safe...So all I can hope to do is try. It's the least I can do for her. It's all I can do for her...But is that enough?
Allen would soon receive the answer to that question. But what answer would that be?

I hate this chapter. I hate it so much. It took me forever to do because I got stuck at one point and everything after that point was crap, crap, crap, crap, crap. Ugh. Hate this chapter but I need to get it out of the way. I don't even know what direction I'm going in with this story anymore.*Slaps self repeatedly* I SUCK, I SUCK, I SUCK, I SUCK!
