"Hello Matt I didnt know you were going to be here", said Near. "Okay listen up squirt, us being here at the same time is obviously making Mello freak out, so if you have a problem with me we can discuss it some other time" said Matt as he took out a cigerette and lit it. " Matt, no smoking",yelled Mello as he swiped the cigerette from Matt's hand and threw it out. "Near why dont you go play with Emma she has been watching you for about 10 minutes, and Matt why dont you get the music going", said Mello.

"Its okay were not going to Matt's room were going to the attic above it", answered Near. "Sure, lets go", said Emma. Near walked over to Emma and grabed her hand, then he led her up the stairs to the attic. The attic was small and dusty with pale blue wallpaper with tiny pink flowers that were starting to chip away.
Emma walked over and sat on the old rusted trunk right by Near and said "This place is ancient, I mean look at that old baby crib its so old the monkeys on it are starting to fade. "Hey I wonder what is in this old trunk, do you want to look inside", asked Near. "Yeah mabye we will find out who's room this use to be",said Emma as she helped Near open the lid.

Emma was speechless for a few seconds then she said "Well I better get going back to my room"."Yeah well me to",said Near as he followed her down the stairs. When Emma got back to her room she sat on her bed and remembered that this was still Mello's birthday party and that she needed to give him his gift so she walked down stairs to give it to him.
"Here you go Mello",said Emma handing the brightly colored box to Mello."Thank you very much",said Mello. "Emma why dont you go change into your nicest dress and ask Near to dance, I bet he will say yes",said Riuzaki. "Okay"said Emma as she ran up stairs and tore apart her room until she found the most beautiful white changed and went down stairs, and to her surprise she saw Near standing at the bottom of the stairs in a wihte tux, waiting to dance with her.
"Would you like to dance",asked Near blushing so much that he looked like a red apple. "Sure",said Emma grabing Near's hand and pulling him towards the dance floor. Near placed one hand on Emma's hip and his other was firmly intertwined with was dancing with Emma when he asked "Emma what is your real name". "Its Emmeth,I know its weird isnt it",said Emma.

"Hehe we were doing much more than that", said Matt walking over to the bed wich he and Mello share.

"Mells I'm sorry, I didnt mean to upset you. Mells please dont be this way" said Matt. Mello didnt answer, instead he grabed his jacket and left.
