AN: Still here? Good! ^^
A is a girl in this one, not that I dislike male A. I love both.

Devil In Her Heart
"Hey, where's Bonnie going?"
Annette, the second smartest after L himself, stares out of the window. She was previously patting L on the head (to his slight discomfort) while he was counting the M 'n M's in every pack and sorting them by color. Why wouldn't the jam-loving twin invite her to his little fiasco? Did he even know any of those people? What was that scream? Something is up, and Anne is going to figure it out.
L glances over to the red haired girl, "You heard a scream did you not? Clearly he has finally killed someone, and has somehow set the evidence to frame me. The crowd he has departed with most likely assumes they are leaving with L instead of B. Afterall, I am far more trustworthy and beloved by my peers." He speaks while arranging all of the blue candies in the form of the Grecian symbol for Saturn. "You are planning something."
A sly smile snakes it's way onto Anne's face, "Oh really? How can you tell?"
"From past experience, I know that you dislike when B spends time with others that are not yourself. You get jealous and show signs that of mild depression. For this reason you come to me and coerce me into doing something with you, so that you may get your mind off of any subjects that bring you mild, moderate, to severe sadness of any kind." L takes a breath and begins to work on the yellow candies. "More evidence that you are planning somthing also extends from past experience. You often express desire to leave the walls of the institution, and no matter how many dates B takes you on, you never-"
"L, those aren't dates." Anne interrupts
"He seems to think otherwise."
"Well, I know, it's just..." She starts raking her nails on the genius' back. Wincing, he pinches her leg in response. "Ow! What was that for? Nevermind, yes I'm planning something. Pat yourself on the back, bravo, amazing, why you so smart, whatever, whatever." She rolls her eyes and stands up to stretch. "I think we should go out with our own group too."
L stops his sorting. "I beg your pardon?"
"Let's leave with our own group! He's going out to party, why shouldn't we? We can make a form, to see which group had more fun. It'll be a challenge. Let's beat Bonnie!" Anne puts her hand out to pull L up while shoving her frizzy hair out of the way.
The young man isn't sure whether to question the girl or ignore her, so he goes with the number one option that is on his list of what not to do: he takes her hand. "I will blame you if someone dies."
"Then make sure no one kicks it okay?"
"No guarantees."
While pulling her hair into a pony tail, Anne and L walk down the hallway, looking for tag-alongs for their irresponsible party. Not thirty seconds into their search, they run into the artist prodigy, Linda. She is looking at the chore list on the wall with confusion very evident on her face.
"Hey, Linda is it?" Anne smiles while using her 'super duper approachable' voice.
Linda gives one last look at the board before looking in their direction. "Oh, hi Anne! And L is here too! Hi!"
"Hello." L stares out the window, absently putting a thumb to his chin.
Without skipping a beat, Anne gets straight to the point. "We're going to sneak out for the night for some fun, and we need a bigger group. Do you think you can round up two or three people and meet us by the gate?"
"We're sneaking out?" Linda gives a little hop in excitement. "Sure, I know just the people! This'll be fun!" Almost dropping her sketchbook, she runs down the hallway, but slows to a stop near the end. Turing on her heel, she looks back to the duo. "Wh-where was I going?"
"Party. We're sneaking out remember?" Anne gives a sympathetic laugh.
"Oh yeah, thanks." The girl's short pig tails bounce as she speeds away.
The red haired genius sighs, "She is just so cute, right L?"
Silence.
"L?"
As Anne turns around, she finds that L is nowhere in the hallway. Out of the corner of her eye, she sees him waiting by the gate with Near, Opal and Linda. "How did they? How did...how..." Her eyes squint in confusion, but she shakes it off and hurries to go join them.
