Author Note: Hullo tis me again, Sammy.
This is a Matt POV fic...
About Matt and Near, and of course Mello later on.
About Matt and Near first being friends, before Mello came around...
Just my opinion on everything tis all.
Review, yes? :3
This is the first chapter..
"Class, welcome our new student, Matt."
I stood at the front of the class, hand running through my red hair, staring at the group of kids huddled behind desks. They stared back at me too. Some smiling, other seemed utterly unwelcoming.
Umong them I could spot a few odd ones. An albino kid. He was sitting at his desk, twisting his hair. I seemed to be of no intrest to him.
And another....
Was that a boy?
His blonde hair hung around his face, quite femininely. But something was different about him...Something that just made me smile.
Well this should be fun.
The teacher, a gruffy old man, patted me on the back, telling me to go and have a seat.
So I did.
Sadly the only desk avalible was the one next to the white-haired kid. So I slipped in next to him.
The whole class was boring. Hell, I can't remember what the guy was saying. But it didn't matter. Here at Wammy's, everyone was smart. Chances were, I wasen't the smartest. Don't get me wrong, I got the best grades back in my other classes...
But this was the best of the best. I'd try of course. But not overdue myself. I'm not that pressed to be at the top.
The white haired kid next to me did not seem to pay much attention either. Rather he seemed to be zoned out. That was good. At least he wasen't some kid that would bother him the whole time. Trying to help him and being annoying and all....
Damn how long was this class?
I reached in my bag to feel around for my Gameboy. Curssing myself when I couldn't find it, I huffed and sat back in my chair, arms crossed.
Thats right I thought, remembering back to yesterday when I just moved in. I left it on my nightstand.
Well this down right sucked. I should probaly be acting like I was paying attention anyway. I'd be damned if I was to go back to that old place.
Finnaly the man at the front stopped talking, and he turned to face the kids. "Alright. So no homework. You got lucky." He laughed then, a weird laugh. I almost made me want to laugh to... "The top students this week were Near then Mello. We have a three way tie for third. Have a good weekend."
Yes! The weekend. I was fine with that. 'Course I really had nothing to do. Other than play with my game boy.
Shifting in my seat, I glanced over to the kid next to me. Hey, I was curious as to who Mello and Near were. "Hey, uhh I'm Matt." It only seemed fair to give my name first. "Who are Near and Mello?"
The boy looked at me, his eyes were so...cold. A dull grey. He seemed almost empty...
Looking to the front of the room, he nodded to where the blonde was walking from the room. "Thats Mello."
Mello huh?
I smiled. Nice name. And Mello himself looked...well good. Quite handsome really. Perhaps I should go talk to him...
I shook my head, frustrated. No. No. What am I saying?
Thankfully the kid pulled my thoughts away. "And I myself am Near."
Near...
So he was the top student, huh? Surprised me, acctually. He barely payed attention to the whole class. I felt like it was right to congradulate him, so I did.
"Good work then. I bet people envy you."
Standing, I tossed my backpack over my shoulder and tugged the goggles I had on my forehead down over my eyes.
Glancing back down to Near I nodded. "See ya later, Near."
"Sure, Matt."
And with that the little kid left, and I was standing in the classroom alone. And it made me somewhat sad. No, not becasue he was gone. I mean the kid is cool and all so far. But because I was in fact alone. I knew no one here. And I don't think I had the patience to get chummy with someone.
Heading slowly for the door, I yawned. I would go back to my room and take a nap or something. Or play with my gameboy.
I had a feeling this would be a long weekend.
