Okay so that´s my first fanfiction, and I really hope you´ll like it. I know it still is short but I´ll try my best to update every week at least once ^-^

The story is about L bringing Near to Wammy´s house, where he has to make friends for the first time and meets Mello and later on Matt.

Chapter 1

L and Near were sitting in the black car that brought them to the orphanage Near should be attending. It was a sunny day with a clear and cloudless sky, therefore Near was able to open one of the black tinted windows and stick out his head to take a deep breath of the fresh air and smell the scent of rain and cut grass. He was studying the streets they were driving by. And was trying to catch scraps of conversations when they stopped at traffic lights. But all the people were talking about was the last case the worlds best detective L had solved.

Near sighed slightly and tilted his head, letting the air stream blow through his already rumpled hair. When he closed the window, he sighed another time unsatisfied.

Of course he could understand that L didn´t need a kid by his side while solving cases. But he wasn´t just a random kid. He was presumably the smartest L would ever met. And of course he would be able to help L at solving cases. And even if L wouldn´t need any help he could still just sit quiet and unseen somewhere near L, playing with his little robot or solving his dear puzzle for another time.

L was sitting across from Near in the driving car, his knees tightened, balancing on his toes, watching every of Near movements. He liked the petite boy but still he wouldn´t be able to let Near come with him to his next, and for gods sake way to dangerous case. He wanted Near to stay as safe as possible, and therefore he had contacted his old mentor Watari to take care of Near.

L had planned to take the little boy with him, but the moment he wanted to tell Near he had decided otherwise.

It had been already a few days ago that L had told Near about those plans but he could still remember every single detail about this significant day because it had been a such incredible important moment for both of their lifes.

When he walked into the room he had left Near a few hours ago, the pale boy was sitting exactly in the middle of the bright room doing the puzzle he had just gotten. Slowly L had been walking towards Near till he stood right in front of him, waiting for the petite boy to look up to make sure he would listen carefully to what L had to say.

Maybe it had been the sound of the last piece Near managed to fit into his puzzle, that had sounded to infinite. Or maybe the calm and appraisingly glance Near gave him when he looked up.

Or maybe simply the blink of pure smartness, which had flared up in Nears black eyes when their eyes finally met.

But something definitely made L change his opinion because when he finally managed to open his mouth he told Near without a second of hesitation the new plans about the boys future he had just made up.
