Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note, the Alphabet (A, B, L, Q), or Romeo and Juliet (that's William Shakespeare.)

Note before you start reading and hate me… this is NOT and B and L Romeo and Juliet based love fanfiction. So if that's what you want it is probably somewhere out there but NOT here… sorry. But you can still read it. I still think it's good… anyways… you have been warned.

Beyond Birthday was deep in concentration. His brow was furrowed and his lips mouthed silent words to himself as his scarlet eyes scanned the contents of the pages in front of him. "What is this inane garbage?" B asked himself causing L to look up in confusion.

"What are you going off about?" L sighed, looking at his lookalike. He eyes the book B held in his pale hands, unable to read the cover.

"They say that this is one of the greatest works of literature but honestly I think it is a piece of outdated words that have been printed on paper and thrust upon students to read in hopes they will have a "better understanding" of romance," B ranted.

L cocked an eyebrow, "What book could you possibly feel this strongly about?" B showed L the cover and L resisted the urge to smirk at him. The title was Romeo and Juliet. "I can see why you feel so strongly about this book but it is a great work of literature."

"All they say is doth, eth, and so forth and so on. Do we honestly expect our youth to understand the out-dated Shakespearean language?" B asked rhetorically, "I mean, when I go and type in "doth", the computer says it is not a word!"

"It is considered the pinnacle of romantic novels," L retorted, "Even Twilight was based off of it."

"Well that explains why I don't like it," B mumbled and L rolled his eyes.

"Would you like me to retrieve the "genius", Light Yagami to help?" L asked and B's eyes glowed with anger.

"Absolutely not!" B said sharply, "I do not want that pansy with a notebook helping me! And how could he when his last name spells "I'm a gay!" What would he know about a girl and boy romance?" L sighed and stifled his laughter. It always amused him when B called Light a pansy or brought up his last name. And B had just said both with one fell swoop. "Why should I continue reading this anyways? I know it will not interest me," B said, closing the book.

"Maybe because people die at the end," L cooed and B's eyes widened with excitement as he opened the book again.

"Well then I guess it is not absolute garbage if people die," B mumbled as he began reading.

L was always amazed at what B found entertaining.

~THE END-ETH~

TADA! I am reading Romeo and Juliet right now in English and this popped into my head. Hope you enjoyed it... It was fun making fun of Light!.. Sorry to all Light fans out there! XD
