000L's POV000

"Watari, this is unnecessary..."

"Hush Lawliet"

I sunk down slightly in my seat. I wasn't sulking, I don't sulk, I was simply displaying my displeasure at Watari's stupid ideas by not talking to him anymore. I mean really, forcing me to go see a physiatrist had to be the least helpful thing he'd ever done for me. He said he was worried, that ever since we moved from England to Japan I've been acting withdrawn. If he really thinks I'm weak enough to get unsettled by a simple move to the other side of the world, he doesn't know me as well as I thought he did.

"Lawliet, you used to always have friends round, teaching them and going out together, now you just come straight home from school and hole up in your room...something must be wrong. and if you won't tell me, maybe the doctor will get some answers out of you"

I rolled my eyes. Watari had always done a wonderful job of taking care of me, ever since my mum died. I know I was never an easy child to contend with and I still give him a far harder time than he deserves, but every now and again he lets me down by failing to notice what it is that bothers me. right now was one of those times.

"Lawliet L?" a young and incredibly bored looking nurse called my name and Watari loving shoved me from the chair I was precariously perched in onto the floor.

I quickly got up and walked over to the door leading to the little study or whatever its called. a little plat on the door read "Dr P Green" oh great. lets get this over with.

As I walked towards the school entrance the crowd round the door parted for me. Random people greeted me all around but I blanked them. well, its not like I can say hi to ALL my admire- I mean friends, I'd never get to class.

"RAITO!" a high-pitched girly voice rung in my ear as a arm looped mine in a clingy way "You never texted me back Raito! Misa was SSOO worried about you!"

Misa Amane had to be the frilly-est form of torture every created. she was loud, peppy and possessive, generally everything that would put me off a person. But she was also dumb, blond and popular, so apparently that made her perfect girlfriend material for me. I have a rep to uphold after all.

"Misa Im right here, no need to deafen me. I was to busy studying to text you" I lied

"OH Raito your so smart! Misa should have know you would be studying, Misa is sorry"

I cringed at the talking-in-third-person thing but didn't say anything. as we passed a large mirrored wall I glanced causally at my reflection. Perfectly tanned skin, shiny toffee brown hair, deep burgundy eyes... yep, everything looked as god-like as ever. No wonder all the girls threw themselves at my feet, I was perfection in a tie.

something else reflected in the mirror caught my attention. a rather scruffy, raven headed something that was pretending to read while staring at me over the top of his book. I whipped my head around and he clearly knew I'd seen him watching me, so he didn't try and hide it.

"enjoying the view, Lawliet?" I sneered. "I understand that your helplessly attracted to me and all, but really, your practically drooling" He raised his buglike eyes to meet mine and said in an expressionless tone "Light-kun, are you really so vain to assume I was watching you. I was merely trying to look in the mirror, but it seems you feel the need to take up the entire thing with your disproportionate head"

I seethed slightly. Like he was one to talk about things being the wrong size, he had a small person attached to those dinner plate eyeballs. Still, Lawliet was such a sad friendless loser, he could never get to me.

"Lawliet Im feeling charitable today so how about this? I let you carry my books to math class and I'll even pretend I don't mind the fact you pratically stalk me ok?" Misa laughed, snuggleing her head into me. "oh Raito do lets stop talking to him, he creeps Misa out!"

And you creep me out, Misa We walked away, and I think Lawliet shouted something.

but I couldn't here him over the sound of how epic I am.

The doctor had told Watari and me that I was simply still ajusting to my new surrondings. I resneted the fact she talked like I was Watari's new pet puppy. When Watari had asked what might help me settle in the school faster, she sujested an extracaricular activity. much to my dissapointment, Watari seemed to think this was an exalent idea, and started looking for a sutable one right away.

"I've signed you up for tennis, but that doesn't start for months.." he had piles of lephlets and letters surrounding him on the table.

"I can wait" I said, pushing a pile of brightly coloured notices away so I could fit my cheesecake on the table.

"no Lawliet, I think you should start something sooner. and unfortunatly most of these-" he gestured to the papers "are completey full up, so I signed you up for somthing a little diffrent.."

I eyed his suspisosly "Fwat dib oo shine me up foor?" I mumbled with my mouth full, sprinkling cakecrumbs on my shirt.

"your going to be the schools agony aunt"

and with that I begain to coke on a strawberry.
