A/N: I really don't know how well I portray BB, he's not a character that you can easily understand and there isn't a whole lot of his personality explained in Another Note. Hope you guys like this!
A's death had caused an uproar throughout Wammy's House and B's reaction to it had been bordering on the mentally unstable.
Rebecka had been the one who had to sit there and comfort him while he cried and screamed about how stupid his best friend was for taking his own life. She had simply told him that it was the only option for him, that he was free from all the pressure L, Watari and Roger had burdened him with for so long. He didn't appreciate it then, but he knew now that she had been right.
The last few weeks had been crazy.
B had become more antisocial that he already was.
He locked himself in his room and didn't attend any of his classes.
She had become his rock and he confided in her that he needed to get out.
She wasn't going to be left there alone.
Two hours she had waited on the stairs, he packed bag next to her. If he was going to leave, then she was going with him. There was no way she was letting him walk out of her life so easily. She was certain that tonight would be the night that he would leave.
Her patience paid off. After another half an hour he arrived at the back exit of the orphanage.
"Backup."
He stopped in his tracks and turned towards the stairs. Rebecka emerged from her shadows, bag hanging off her shoulder.
"I'm not Backup anymore. I'm Beyond Birthday."
"Okay then, Beyond Birthday."
He looked at the bag. "What are you doing?"
"I'm coming with you."
"No, you're going to stay here."
She narrowed her eyes. "I'm coming with you."
"Are you sure? It's not like I'm just leaving the orphanage. I'm leaving the country."
"I'll follow you, no matter what path you choose."
"Why?"
"You need someone to take care of you. I want to be that someone."
Beyond sighed. "Are you sure, Rebecka?"
She nodded, taking a step forward towards the door. "I'm certain."
He thought for a moment. It wasn't going to be a walk in the park, but he knew that she would be the only human contact that he would miss if he left without her. She held his fragile heart in her hands and she didn't even know it. His feelings towards her were stronger than he was willing to admit, and when he finally realised this, in that moment, he made up his mind.
He wanted her with him.
"Alright."
She smiled and skipped towards the door.
That was the night that Beyond Birthday realised that he was capable of feeling true love, something that had caused plenty of controversy in his mind for a long time.
He took her with him and left the orphanage behind.
