"This is soo stupid" Matt pointed out.
"Wow Matt, first time I hear you say something smart" The blonde who was lying next to him teased.
"Who`s idea was this anyway?"
"Janice and course." Mello rolled his eyes and eventually shut them.
"Twins, children of devil, born in hell." Matt grinned and concentrated at the sky on top of him, they were at Wammy`s, their home.
The grass beneath them was a green that you would only expect to see in fairy tails, they were sitting (lying down in Mello`s case) under a large three, its large leaves and old wood gave the orphanage a magic touch, it was dark and the stars above them were shining.
A hand softly wacked him on the head, to be more exact, two hands.
"You know,"
"We heard that,"
Matt lift his eyebrow and looked up to see who the who the hand belonged to, Beyond Birthday and L Lawliet, of course.
"Where the hell did you two come from,also must you always be atached to freaking hip" Mello snickered, quite odd, considering he never once opened his eyes.
Beyond and L exchanged looks, "You have no room to talk," Beyond started, as he made himself confortable and sat next to Matt.
"...im a 75 percent shure you two will end up fucking- excuse my hast language- sweetly making love with eachother by end of this year." L finished, as he carefully sat next to Mello, forever hugging his knees.
"My God Lawliet are you on drugs? Must we call a doctor?" The blonde`s lips twitched in a little smile, still not opening his eyes.
"Well...My dear Mello, somehow the idea isnt that much of a turn-off" Matt teased as he closed his face to his friend`s, their lips just a breath away from touching. Mello got his goggles between his index-fingers and snapped it against his nose, Matt yelped.
Of course, this was the usual, it ment nothing. Or atleast, thats what they wanted it to mean; nothing.
They were always teasing eachother, they had everyone fooled in the orphanage (well, many people atleast) 15 year old Matt, and 16 year old Mello knew eachother even before either of them had to go to Wammy House, their friendship was something not many had, many were jealous, and Matt and Mello did cheris what they had, sometimes they thought that they knew eachother better than they knew themselves...it was a quite frigthening idea.
Beyond again wacked Matt on the head, which caused Matt to fall on Mello`s chest, the blonde`s leather black motor jacket was quite confortable, but somehow the cross necklace he had wasnt soo, confortable, I mean.
"Get a room." he looked over at his brother, who had a amused expression on his face.
Matt got up from his friends chest and sat in his regular position."Now can`t we go already? its midnight and if Roger finds out were here..."
The boys exchanged worried glances, well, Beyond and Matt did. Mello shut is eyes again and Lawliet was, well...being Lawliet.
"Sorry dude, devil sisters got us blackmailed." Mello patted his friend on the shoulder, and cracked an eye open to look at the teen next to him.
"Oh Shakespears and Mother Maria," Beyond took a dramatic pose. "Where shall the times have gone, those blissed innocent days of fresh grasshopers and magic unicorns hence the moments were girls from the same whomb relished to use such futale way of blackmail and thus we shan`t be in this tremendous trouble." he lift his hand to give his act a little more drama.
What does shakespears have to do with Maria, and whats with the unicorns? im surprised he didnt speak about pink leprachons Mello wondered, and stared at the Beyond, the sight got rather boring (And amusing, somehow, its not everyday you see Beyond in the "Freddy Mercury" pose.) soo he looked at his twin brother instead. "What`s with you?"
Lawliet shrugged and yawned. "That German exam today was a pain."
Matt`s eyes widened as he threw his hands in his hair and leaned back on the three behind him. "GAAAHH dont talk about exams! just don`t!"
He was about to squeal something else but instead he bit Beyond`s hand, he blinked and looke over to the guy. "What the hell?" he asked, but since he had a HAND in his mouth it came out like. "Waf ze Hel?"
"Shhh" Beyond said, and Lawliet murmmured something, Mello wasnt quite shure but it sounded something like. "Oh boy, now he did it."
Mello also opened his eyes since he was surprised by their sudden silence (Honestly, silence was hard to find, especially in THEIR group, well, except Near, because, well, if you are 14 and you play with Superman figures it just writes "outcast" on your forehead.)
There was a soft rustle from the bushes not to far from them, they also heared a click of a lantern, this alarmed Beyond, Matt, Mello and also Lawliet, they didnt need to be gifted geniuses to figure out who it was, the terror of Wammy House...Roger.
If you have orphans, especially the smartest ones out there, them staying out till after midnight (and OKAY they were blackmailed, but he didnt know that) and a cranky old man who hates kids yet works in a orphanage (Who can really blame Beyond and Matt to figure out wheter he was a pedophile or not?) spells out trouble, Roger was forced to work the four geniuses to the bone, they WERE future detectives after all, this, frankly, got them quite mad sometimes (especially Mello and Beyond.) Soo like any group of blackmailed teenagers would do, they did it;Run.
"Oh shit!" Mello stood up and grabbed his goggle-wearing friend by his wrist to push him up and make a run for it, Beyond put his pocket knife in his, well, pocket. And grabbed his brother, both who didnt hesistate to also run.
They were fast runners, they were nearly out of breath when they reached the back of the orphanage, the Girl`s wing of the place, they rested in the grass for a split second and Beyond knocked on the window.
A blonde girl opened the door, her big green eyes looking at Beyond, her gaze then slowly passing to Mello and Lawliet.
Another girl poked her head trough the window, the girl looked exacly the same as the other, who were they? oh no one less but the two girls who blackmailed the boys, Janice and Jaiice Whingstones, daughters of a plastic surgeon who lost his life in a fire, and daughter of a model who broke her neck while walking on the catwalk, both sisters had to experience her death, the fall, the deadly shoes she was wearing that cost her life, it was a haunting experience.
The boys, one at the time climbed up the window to collapse in the girl`s room, the room consisted out of four girls ; Janice,Jaiice, Linda and absent Nina, although Nina was more of a female Near, silent, abscent and cocky if she wants, just she didnt have much of a toy-fetish, more of a Yaoi-fetish, a true fangirl, always reading trough BL manga or in the media room watching anime`s like "JunJou Romantica" "Loveless" and "One Peice."
When Beyond got out his pocket knife and started biting it seductively, Mello got out another chocolate bar with a pissed expression on his face, and Lawliet crashed on the floor, Janice spoke.
"Where is my Matty?"
YOUR Matty? Mello thought, and chuckled at the tought.
The boys exchanged looks, where WAS Matt?
Beyond was about to look out of the window, but Jaiice stepped infront of him and held out her hand to stop him. "If Roger is out there and sees you, he`ll like, freak out and die."
Beyond was appalled by the idea of someone dying due freak-out, if that was possible, Mello would surely be a ghost by now.
Jaiicee took the liberty of looking out the window, she was surprised to see "Matty" casually gaming on his Gameboy against the wall.
"Took you long enough" He said and put the machine in his pocket to climb up to the room, he crashed on the bed next to Janice, Janice giggled and eyed him seductively.
"What the hell Matt," Mello said, quite annoyed by the girl lying next to his friend.
"You morons didnt do what we said didnt you?" Jaiicee exploded and stomped around the room, give the each boy A Look, a look that could frankly kill,if that was possible.
"What the fu-" Mello started and stood up, facing the blonde infront of him.
"-are you honestly saying that-" Matt continued,
"No, Jaiicee." Beyond finished.
"Are you boys idiots or...?" before she could go any further, Mello got a beautiful red rose out of his pocket and tossed it at the girl.
"Oranges." Lawliet suddenly said from the corner of the room, all gazes dragged to him.
"Are you on drugs?" Matt wondered out loud.
"Actually, since everyone had said something and I felt left out, also, the tension was killing us."
"Right." His brother said.
"Now what were you saying, Jaiicee?" Mello said. "I honestly expected you to make us do something more...threathening."
"Not pick up a fucking rose." Beyond said, although he himself found the colour rather pretty, reminded him of blood, he wondered if roses could also bleed? and if so, was this rose just unlucky? or was he simply born like that, perhaps he was the devil under the roses.
"Ohmigosh you guys, this is NOT just a rose-"
Lawliet cut her off. "Im a 99% shure it is, in fact, a rose"
"NOO DONT BANG THE OTHER GUY RITSUKA, HE DOESNT LOVE YOU!" Nina chipped in.
Jaiicee rolled his eyes and again gave Lawliet Her Look. "Just FYI this is a rose that only grows in England, much less, in DECEMBER, and they are easier to find at NIGHTIME, furthermore, this was NOT something easy to do, okay?"
Mello answered with a snicker accompaned with a "Not something easy for someone with your characteristics indeed,"
Janice knew out of experience that once Mello started on something they would never hear the end of it, much more if the other boys chip in, soo she did what any right thinking girl would do. "Um, im going to the bathroom Kay?"
Matt, who was lying next to her, nodded and smiled, Janice`s cheek got a soft tone of rouge and she hopped out.
"Now can you give us the...you know, thing." Mello said, even though it sounded more like a treath than a question.
"Oh I will..."
He got his hand out and made a impatient gesture with his index finger. "This year perhaps, seriously im tired as hell and want to go to bed already-"
"-And my DS ran out of battery just when I was about to beat Bowser, do you know how frustrating that is?"
Jaiicee rolled her eyes and thought by herself, Just what does Janice SEE in that geek?
"Exacly, soo gi-"
Janice smirked and put her hand on her petitie waist, "Oh Mello," With her other hand, she passed her hand around the blonde`s neck, and with her index finger she lift his head a little, to Mello`s great, and understandable annoyance. "I cannot do that yet."
"And why..." Beyond started.
"...Is that?" Lawliet finished.
"Spit it out already" Mello said, not pleased yet not fully displeased by Janice moving forward, their bodies closing to eachother, but he couldnt help feeling the unfamiliarity, normally, apart from the girls he had ever dated (About two girls, dont get me wrong, Mello was a sheer womanizer, HE just refused to commit to something as cheesy as "love" although Matt, who shared his ideals, did have more girlfriends, and many more tongues down his troath) the person ever being up close to him was Matt, and he never felt to annoyed by Matt`s body up his, actually, the feeling was always quite tempting, to say the least.
"I have one more favour to ask you"
Her head closed even neared to his, their body heat clearly heating the small space between them.
A favour or obligation? this is getting sheer problematic, and also does she HONESTLY have to be that close to Mello? Matt tought, and heard Jaiicee out. Sheer problematic? Damn, I dont think L is on crack, Jaiicee is the one on crack here.
Little did he know that those words Janice pronounced were just the beggining of his problems.
A/N I can only say one thing.
