Chapter 1: French

Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note

Katana: I wrote this during, you guessed it, French... God it HATE THAT CLASS! No offense to French people, but your language sucks…

Mello yawned, 'god first period French class is SOOOO boring!'

The blonde looked across the room at his friend Matt. He was sitting up straight and never took his eyes off the teacher, Madame Dreary. 'Suck up, acting like he's paying attention,'Mello was the only one who knew that Matt could sleep with his eyes open. He glanced at Madame Dreary. Their eyes meet for a second and she glared at him. Dreary knew that he didn't give a crap about conjugating French words. He turned and stared at the clock in the front of the room. He was using all his brainpower, willing the second hand to make just a little faster. When the teachers back was turned for a second, Mello pulled a piece of chocolate out of his pocket and ate it, 'shit, time for notes.' Mello took out his 'french' notebook and started to doodle.

Dreary saw him, "Francois, would you mind putting that away and take down the notes?"

'Francois' smiled as sweetly as was possible for him and said, "Of course madame." She walked away and he continued to doodle. 'Why the hell do I have to take this f-ing class anyways. Isn't being the 3rd smartest person in the world enough?! A genius doesn't need to know French. They call it the language of love, but Matt always says he prefers Japanese…even then, when will I need to say 'please give me a cheese sandwich' in French?'

Mello snapped back to reality when he noticed that Matt was looking at him. The other boy was mouthing something…. 'Answer her?'… Mello looked at Dreary, she was looking at him expectantly.

"What!" Mello said, clueless to wait was going on.

"Quelle est la date?" the teacher asked

"Ummmm…Il est noir…" the blonde replied, coolly. Dreary shook her head and sighed. Mello glared at Matt who looked like he was about to burst out laughing. Mello glared harder and whispered, "Just die…"

Then Matt finally burst out in hysterical laughter.
