I was scared about moving into Wammy's house. I'm 15 years old but I will be 16 in two days, I have black hair with a side fringe, Violet eyes and I'm 5ft tall. I just lost my parents to a house fire so I have to go to this orphanage. I don't make friends that easily… at my last school I was a loner I was the freak.

"Lauren welcome to Wammy's this is Roger, he is the guy in charge." Hannah said gesturing to the tall guy standing in front of us. He had glasses, white hair and was in a suit. Hannah is a teacher from my old school who was best friends with my mum, she was always beautiful with her long curly brown hair, golden eyes and slim figure.
"It's nice to meet you Roger" I said shyly looking over towards some trees my suitcase held firmly in my hand.
"It's nice to meet you too Lauren. Come this way and I'll introduce you to the kids" Roger said leading me into the big house. Hannah didn't follow but waved goodbye to me as I glanced back. The house was huge! We had gone up 4 flights of stairs by the time he finally said "Here we are" he opened a white door. He must have had all the kids in here because there were loads! But 1 kid caught my eye. He was in white clothes and was sitting in a corner with a deck of cards making it into a card castle. He had white shaggy hair and a bad boy appearance. "This is Lauren Black, she will be living here from now on. She just lost her parents to a house fire so please treat her with respect. Near will you show Lauren around? Make her feel welcome please. Also we have a special visitor that is coming all the way from Japan, and will be here tomorrow. That will be all" Roger turned around and walked out the room closing the door behind him. The boy that had caught my eye came up to me.

"Hi I'm Near" he said emotion washed from his voice, sounding more like he was brainwashed…
"I will take you to your new room. Just follow me" he said making his way out of the room I followed shyly.
"It's nice to meet you, urm… so what is it like here?" I said as I looked around. Someone took hold of my hand. It was a small girl about 6 years old.
"Come play with me and my friends."
"She cant Leah I have to show her around and to her room ."Near said softly she looked sad and ran off. "Come on, after I show you to your room I'll take you to the library if you want" he said as we walked up the stairs and into yet another corridor.

"Ok, thanks Near" I said forcing a smile I looked up at Near but he was to busy looking at every door.
"MATT I SWEAR TO GOD, IF YOU TOOK MY CHOCOLATE YOU WILL BE SORRY!"A blonde boy shouted as he ran past me knocking my suitcase out of my hand.
"Watch it moron!" I picked my suitcase up.
"Who the hell do you think your talking to new bee?!?!" The blonde said walking back over to me and Near.
"I was talking to you obviously, watch where your going next time."
"what's your name?"
"Lauren, let me guess yours Blondie is it stuck up moron?" his face started to turn red.
"No! It's not, you better watch your self or else" I took a step forward making only an inch between us.
"Or else what?"
"Lauren we better get going" Near took hold of my wrist and pulled me away.
"Come on, or else what Blondie" I laughed as he looked gob smacked.
"Lauren you shouldn't of done that, he properly has you on his list now." I laughed again. Near walked in stony silence from then on. We came to a stop in front of a door. Near opened it, revelling a pink bedroom with butterflies painted everywhere on the walls. I made a face.
"This is my room?"
"Yes do you not like it?"
"Urm no. its pink." I walked out of the room and looked down the corridor. There was a black door at the end.
"What about that room. If its free" Near came out closing the door behind us.
"BB's old room, no one ever wants to be in it." I smirked. Perfect.
"Sounds great, can I have a look?"
"You want to have a look at BB's old room?" I nodded. His name actually rang a bell.
Wasn't he the mass murderer, L, worked on that case over in Los Angles? I thought to myself as we came to a stop in front the black door. It had painted blood splatters, and a white skull on it.

Near opened the door to revile a big bedroom with black and red checked walls; there was a couch and a single bed.
"Wow nice room" I said as I followed Near in. I walked over towards a table where a computer sat and placed my suitcase down.
"BB as in the mass murderer?" I said as I was looking around the room. Near stood in the doorway. He looked a little uncomfortable.
"yeah"
"My mum helped L with a few cases. Down in London of course. She found out everything, L is my godfather."
"Really?" He said as I sat down on the computer chair.
"Yeah so any thing I should know about this room?" I asked.
"there's a ghost in this room. One of his victims I think." Near took a step back as I laughed.
"Yeah, sure, whatever"
"It's the truth!" I smiled. Like ghosts existed. "Enough I'm going to unpack later how about we go to the library now"
"Sure but let me just do something's first I'll be back in an hour" Near walked away and I noticed what a nice arse he had. I walked out of my new room and watched him walk over to the stairs. "hmm which way to the library?" I said out loud to myself as Near disappeared.
"If your wanting the library, then turn down that corridor and it's the second door on the right." a voice said behind me. I looked over, it was a redhead boy with a back and white striped shirt, jeans and black cyber boots. "Thanks, what's you name?"
"Matt what's yours? it must be pretty like your face" I laughed.
"Lauren, you're a charmer Matt" he laughed.
"by any chance have you seen a blonde boy, who was wearing black?"
"oh yea you mean the stuck up moron? Sure I've met him…" A voice came from behind us.
"Matt I see you've met the annoying new bee" it was the stuck up blonde.
"She isn't annoying! She is actually pretty awesome" I noticed he emphasized the pretty part.
"Yea right, like she will be awesome. she has the gut to talk to me like I'm garbage." he folded his arms and glared at me.
"Well, you better watch where your going next time Blondie, plus you still haven't told me what will happen to me" the blondes face started to turn red again. I laughed.
"Mello threatened you?" Matt asked me his face a mask of concern.
"Oh is that his name, well yeah he did in a way he just said, you better watch yourself of else its not much of a threat."
"MELLO!!"
"What? I'm not letting her talk to me like that" he folded my arms.
"Your not letting me talk to you like this?" I said teasing him as he slowly turned read again. I Laughed.
"You better watch it bitch." Mello hissed, he didn't see the fist coming his way until it was to late. It made contact with his face and he fell to the floor. He wiped the blood off his lip as he slowly got back to his feet. Matt looked furious and had both of his hands clenched by his side.
"Matt what was that for?" Mello asked angrily.
"Don't call her a bitch." He answered glaring at Mello.
"I can call her what ever I want." Mello replied before walking away cursing under his breath.
"Matt I'm sor…" He cut me off.
"No it's fine. Mello is always like that, We're best friends"
"Your best friends?" I said unconvinced.
"Yeah, you just wouldn't think so at the minute since I just punched him in the face"
"Um hmm, anyway I better go and unpack" I turned around to go back to my new room but Matt grabbed my hand.
"Do you need any help?" he asked giving me puppy dog eyes.
"No its fine but if you want to drop by later then come to BB's old room." Matt's face dropped. "BB's old room?" he asked hesitating.
"Yeah, and before you say I know about the ghost"
"Yeah but every time there's a new person in his room they always get injured." I smirked.
"Well it will have to put up with me, I don't think it will be able to hurt me." I smiled.
"Hopefully you wont I'll see you later?"
"Sure" I turned and walked back to my new room. Matt seemed really nice. I sighed and went over to my suitcase weird… I thought to myself, my suitcase was open on my bed instead of next to the computer where I had left it. The picture of my mum and dad was lying on top of my clothes and the glass was smashed. I walked out of my room and slammed the door
"Okay who the fuck did this to my picture because who ever it was your going to be dead you sick twisted freak!" I broke down as I saw the photo was ripped.
"Lauren!" I heard Mello shout as I collapsed onto the floor. "What's happened?" He asked.
"Like you don't know" I screamed. "I knew you hated me but there was no need to destroy the only thing I had left of my family!" I ran into my room and slammed the door in his face.

A few minutes later Matt came to my room and sat down next to me .
"what happened?" he asked calmly I looked up and saw that Near was standing in the doorway holding onto a very angry Mello
"He broke it…" I replied new tears burning my eyes
"Broke what?" Near asked. I pointed to the broken picture not even looking at it
"He broke the one thing I had left" I said coldly. Anger overwhelmed me and I sprang up and ran to Mello but Matt grabbed me
"Calm down" he said moving his hands round my waist and pulling me back softly. He sat me on his lap and I broke down again.
"Mello?" Near said sternly
"I didn't do it I swear I only came over to see if she was okay" He protested.
"All of you leave I want to be by myself" I said getting off Matt's lap and curling up on my bed pulling the covers over my head. I heard Mello protesting as Near dragged him away. Matt closed the door and I slowly slipped into the world of darkness known as sleep.
