The Bells

by LoonyLoonyLaura

If L heard the bells, didn't the other characters that are related to Wammy's hear them too? A series of 7 quick oneshots telling what the bells meant to Roger, Linda, Watari, Mello, Matt, Near, and lastly, L. Might be cursing for Matt and Mello.

1. Roger

The Bells

Roger

The bells are loud today.

I stack the papers on my desk, and then file them neatly into the drawer. Just like everything else at this orphanage, they revolved around who was to be L's successor.

I lean back against my chair, taking a deep breath in, then letting it out with a long exhale. The bells continue to ring.

I sigh, moving on to the next stack of papers. The bells seem to be getting louder by the second. By now, I have grown used to them.

It's always the same. The bells, the papers. It's all the same.

About this story:

Ok, so I was thinking about the scene in the anime (yes, the rain scene with L) and I was wondering: If L had heard the bells at the orphanage, wouldn't the others hear them as well?

And then, it lead to this. I'll be doing a quick oneshot for each of the known characters related to Wammy's House.

This includes: Roger, Linda, Watari, Mello, Matt, Near, and L

They won't all be this short, just the minor character ones (Roger, Linda, Watari)

I don't consider Matt a minor character XD
