In Heaven
Chapter 1
Why had things turned out like that? He had caught Kira and the world was turning back to how it was before Kira appeared. Why had things turned out like this?Why had Mello died? Near came back to reality when he noticed the car stopping and when he heard Roger's voice.
-Hello Near!-He said happily- Welcome back to Wammy's!
-Hi- Near said with his usual emotionless voice
-Let me present you the kids!-Roger said happily
Near followed Roger into the orphanage and then he saw about 50 children looking happily at him.
-Wow it's L!-Said a boy with brown hair
-Yes it's really him!-Said then a girl with pink hair
-Hi all!-Near said before giving all the children a present and a bar of chocolate.
Just when he started giving the bars of chocolate he felt his heart hurt. Mello… Near thought sadly. He managed to maintain the smile he had created. The children wouldn't see him sad. They wouldn't be the first to see him like he was actually feeling. His emotions would remain bottled up.
After Near gave all his resents and he had talked to all the children he went to the room where he was supposed to sleep (Quite late actually), which turned out to be the room where Mello and Matt used to sleep in. Had it been unutilized all these years? Near left his suitcase at a corner and lied on one of the two beds that were in the room. I should leave my clothes in the cupboard so I don't have to do it tomorrow morning Near thought.
Near opened his suitcase and got two white shirts, then he opened the cupboard and he saw a book. What is this doing here? Near thought. He got the book and left it on top of the bed he had lied on before and then he continued to unpack his clothes and when he finished le sat on the floor and got hold of the little book. What is it? He thought. Near opened the book by the last page and was surprised to see a diary.
21 of May
Dear Diary:
Today Roger told us that L had died because of Kira. I hate Kira! Later he proposed that me and Near should work together to catch Kira. I said no and went to my bedroom, where Matt asked me what Roger ha told us. I told him everything. I know I said that I wouldn't work with Near but the truth is that I would like to do it, actually. But I couldn't say that! He is supposed to be my rival and everyone, including him would get the wrong idea about me and my reputation would have been seriously affected. The strange thing is that I am worried that I will make him feel bad when I am gone. Me caring for Near! That is strange! I started asking myself why I felt this and I came with a conclusion: I love Near. Yeah I know it's really strange. Anyway, today at 3:00 AM I am going to leave Wammy's.
Mello
Near stared at the book for some minutes, without believing what he had just read. Can it be possible? Could it be that Mello liked me? But he said that he hated me! Near thought of the things he had read. He left the book in his suitcase and went to his bed to sleep. He suddenly started crying. All the emotions that Near had bottled up since Mello's death went free.
Near woke up early, like he always did. He knew what he would do now. He couldn't stand anymore the pain he felt.
-Ryuk! Come here!-Near said
Half a second later he saw the shinigami appear in the room.
-What do you want Near?- Ryuk asked with a bored voice.
