*Flashback*
"Light, why do you think we exist?" Asked a young but smart and highly inquisitive (Name). She and her best friend Light, were at the boy's house. Lying on the ground and looking at the stars.
"I don't know (Name)," replied Light, his intelligent mind worked to try to give (Name) an answer. "I mean, many religions state that we are here to gain knowledge and be the best people we can be but I'm not sure if that's true." (Name) lifted her small body and looked at Light.
"I don't know either so we'll find out together. Deal?" She said and held out her pinkie for him to take, sealing the deal. It was a childish thing but whenever they did this, it was always a promise they would keep no matter what. Light lifted himself up and stretched out his arm to her. Wrapping his pinkie around hers he said,
"Deal."
*End of Flashback*
Light and I were in school, staring out the window not interested in the lecture that the teacher was giving.
"(Name)," the teacher spoke. "What is the answer to question number one?" He was trying to catch me off guard but that would likely never happen.
'What is theory?'
"It explains how some aspect of human behavior or performance is organized. It thus enables us to make predictions about that behavior," I stated after looking at the question. The teacher glared at me while I looked back at the window. Light gave me a small smirk. We both celebrated in each other's accomplishments. Because of this, we never got into any arguments.
"Would you please stop flirting with each other and listen to the lesson?" The teacher said, staring at us.
"Sir," Light said, addressing the teacher. He raised an eyebrow and motioned for Light to continue. "Flirting means to try to attract someone mostly in romantic ways for amusement, to tease, or lead on. Neither of us were doing any of those things so you could hardly call it flirting. Yes, we are attracted to one another but we are not trying to lead the other on or tease for amusement." Some of the girls around us giggled at what Light said about us being attracted to one another. I did not blush at this because I knew how he meant it. The teacher looked very angry at us.
"Both of you get out of my class. And while you're at it, go talk to the principal."
Light and I calmly grabbed our things and headed out the door. We weren't worried, we had talked to the principal many times and he loved us. Mostly because we were the top students, so we would be able to get out of it easy. Light and I both exchanged small smirks at each other. We loved the feeling of winning or at least knowing we were going to win.
Light entwined my pinkie with his. It was a childish thing but it always reminded us of the deals we've made with each other.
"(Name), what is your idea of a perfect world?" Light asked me. I was silent for a while, contemplating his question. We would have moments like this often, asking each other questions and silence for pondering the answers.
"My idea of a perfect world is justice. Where everyone is kind, honest, and trustworthy. Where people don't have to worry about locking their doors at night in fear of someone hurting them. Where there is no injustice, no wars, just peace. But as this world is made of humans, who many of which are evil or rotten, this world can never be achieved." We walk the rest of the way to the principal's office in silence, our pinkies still entwined.
"(Name) and Light, my favorite students! Please, come in!" The principal said enthusiastically to us when we arrived. Once we got settled the principal set out coffee and cookies for us. But we politely declined. "You two don't worry. I'll get the problem sorted out with your teacher today. Since it's the last period you are free to go home." He gave us a bright smile and we graciously thanked him.
We walked to Light's house again in silence. It never bother either of us so most of the time we didn't break it. Once we got there we greeted his mother and quickly explained why we were home early. I always went home with Light to work on homework with him. We never needed help but it was just comforting to be in each other's presence as we understood each other so well.
We went up into his room and just thought I guess. At least, that's what I was doing I don't know if Light was doing the same. Reaching over to him, I entwined our fingers together, thinking abut our deal.
"(Name)," Light said, earning me his attention as I looked up at him. "I have been thinking about your view of a perfect world and it's exactly like mine. I agree with you that there is evil in the world which is why our world cannot be accomplished. The only thing is, I don't know how we would get rid of this evil. But if I had the chance, I would take it." I nodded, fully agreeing with his statement. If there is something evil and you could stop it why wouldn't you?
"(Name), I have also been thinking about one of the first deals we made." Light shifted his hand to entwine all of our fingers. "I think the reason I exist is to carry out our dream of a perfect world and…...to be with you."
