I didn't really like this chapter because I had trouble writing it, but oh well. I also have to apologize again if he seems super OOC-ish! Anyways. Thank you to GothicGoddess-13 for reviewing! Hmm... I can't remember what was the other thing I was going to say... -.- Oh, well. I'd also really like it if youd reviewed! I know people are reading this story, so please review it! It would really help me as a writer!

I'm just going to assume reader that you think that Elizabeth smiled at me and kindly introduced herself. Well no. She did nothing of the sort. You see she's the type that is absolutely frightened by strangers. So here's what happened next.
As I took a few steps closer, I couldn't help but notice that those sparkling eyes of hers were starting to tear up. It kind of threw me off guard. I mean, I hadn't done anything to make her cry, yet she was crying. Once again, I took a step forward and as soon as I did the girl ran away as fast as humanly possible.
I remember just standing there puzzled as to what had just happened. So, yes reader. That was my first encounter with Elizabeth and yes I realize that was probably lame, but what was I supposed to do about it! Anyway, what happens next isn't really that significant with this so let's continue to my next meeting with her.
A few days had passed by since my bizarre run in with my Elizabeth and I was once again going through my normal morning routine. I sat there at my usual table finishing up my usual breakfast, jam. As I licked my fingers clean and stood up to leave I came face to face with A again. He once again was unable to come out and say what was on his mind, so I ended up leaving.
I then proceeded to jump the fence and go to my secret place like usual. Now what was unusual was that Elizabeth was back. It sort of surprised me, seeing that I was under the impression that I had scared her off. She looked at me nervously as I walked over to where she was standing. I paid no mind to her and just took a seat. This caused her to go into a sort of panic. Seeing her get all nervous like that was… Well, it was sort of cute, I guess in a weird kind of way.
After a minute or two she took a seat on the grass facing me. I couldn't help but wonder why she was there. A long period of silence passed and I actually forgot that she was sitting right there, that is until she flicked my forehead. She could've just tapped me on the shoulder, but no.
"Umm…" She began saying.
"What?" I asked annoyed. I must've sounded really ticked because she looked pretty scared.
"I'm sorry! I was so rude before, but I'm just naturally not good with meeting people! Oh, and I'm sorry for flicking you! Please don't be mad at me!"
Elizabeth was practically bawling her heterochromia eyes out. Now I can recall thinking that she was the strangest girl I had ever met, but then again I'm also a rather peculiar person so I had no right to be talking. Anyways…
"It's fine…" I muttered while looking away. She immediately stopped crying at that moment and just looked at me with disbelief.
"Really? You're not angry?"
"Yes," is all I was able to get out before I found myself lying on my back being hugged to death by a girl I barely even knew. I somehow managed to push her off and sit up though. As I stared at her feeling somewhat annoyed, she only smiled at me and giggled. After she stopped laughing, Elizabeth lay down on the grass and just stared at the clouds humming. I didn't really know what to do, so I just decided to copy her and lay there. When I did, the blonde started pointing out a bunch of things she saw in the clouds. I couldn't see any of them and so I just closed my eyes.
Here's my favorite memory of my time with Elizabeth, though at the time I didn't like it. Anyway, you probably want to know reader, so continuing.
I knew I was lying down, yet I couldn't figure out why the ground had gotten softer. Suddenly I felt someone brushing my bangs out of my face and I opened my eyes. I half expected the horrible sun to burn my eyes, but instead I was staring up at a dark blue and orangish sky and this surprised me a lot. The sun was setting already?
"Good night. I would say good morning, but it's not morning," Elizabeth said cheerily while looking down at me.
Apparently my head had been resting on her lap. I quickly sat up and just stared at her feeling a bit creeped out and embarrassed. She merely giggled again though.
"How long have I been sleeping?" I questioned while standing up.
"For a very long time. I felt bad that you were sleeping on the hard ground, so I let you use my lap as a pillow." Elizabeth smiled at me so innocently, and I remember feeling really embarrassed.
"I-I have to go," I then started to run off, but she ran after me and stopped me.
"Wait, what's your name?"
"It's… It's B, now I really have to go," I stated while trying to get past her.
"Is that really your name, or are you lying?"
"I don't have time for this."
"Sorry, B. You can go now, but you have to promise to come back here tomorrow, okay?" She asked while taking hold of my pinkie finger with her own.
"Fine, I promise- Wait, why should I do what you tell me to kid? What if I have other things to do?"
"My name's not kid! It's… Umm… L! Yeah! My name's L!" She tried to look serious while saying that and I couldn't help but laugh. If she only knew that I already knew her name was Elizabeth and not L. I also sort of wonder why she chose L as her name and not E. Anyway, not important.
"Stop laughing at me B! And you have to come so we can hang out again because that's what friends do and we're friends. Anyway, bye. I have to go now too!" She then ran off in the opposite direction I was heading, but she stopped in the distance and waved good-bye. Meanwhile, I stood there in disbelief. I had made my first real friend without even knowing.
So that's the second chapter. Please review! Third chapter coming soon! Also, I remembered what I was going to say before. I was working on a new story involving Matt, Mello, and Near called, A Wammy's House Romance. It will possibly be posted sometime this week and since I have no school this whole week I just might post chapter three of this story too. So keep an eye out for that. Thanks again for reading! Again, please review! Oh, and sorry that it's still pretty short, but's at least it's longer than the last chapter! I'll try harder next time! ;D
