"Liz"

9: Patty or Patti?

By Evanescences Angel


"Patty or Patti?"

I always been called Patty as long as I can remember. Momma called me that without fail and Liz did too. It was only in rare moments that people called me by my 'real' name, and the only people who now knew it was Onee-chan. And now that I think about now Kid-kun and the Shinigami-sama knew too! That's a weird thought now that I think about it. I sometimes wonder how my name was made... Did mama out of the blue decided to call me Patty? And... hmm... my real name is spelled Patrica... so wouldn't it have been spell 'Patti'? I'm confused maybe Onee-chan will know...

My real name.

...

I ran around the mansion and looked around in amazement! So much stuff to take! But my stomach growled and first thing first.... "FOOD!!!"

"Patty! Wait!" Onee-chan was always so slow, I still ran though. This place was big and huge~! So much things to look at and steal! I ran through hall to hall, to room to room. It had so many things. But I started to slow down alittle, as I continued to look around... I started to get angry. There were pricey looking vases, pictures, a grand piano... everything you expected from a mansion. And it was pissing me off alittle.

I sighed/growled as I walked into one of the millions of rooms. It was surprisingly pretty. It was entirely white, very un-Kid like. I mean, the walls were white, the dressers, the desk, the curtains and even the frickin floor. But what strike me was that there was no bed, only a small white crib and a white rocking chair. I continued to looked around as a picture on the desk caught my eye. It was a smaller one than the ones around the mansion. I looked at it and suddenly my mouth felt dry.

My eye widened. And my smile faded.

"Patty~! I thought you never slow down!" Liz complained as she panted standing beside me. I picked up the picture and showed Liz, she had the same reaction. I turned the frame around and suddenly didn't fell so hungry anymore. It was like something fell through my stomach and it kept falling and falling never coming back. I felt this before. When-

"Patty, Liz! Where are you? Don't mess up anything! It'll ruin the symmetry I work so hard to make!"

"Put it back. Put it back now!" Onee-chan looked pale, and I obey for once without much question. I quickly put it down and we left the room without looking back. Not even a glance.

After finally running back to the room Kid was looking for us in, Liz seem to recover or at least she looked like she did.

"Gomen, gomen Kid!" Liz said weakly laughing as he was stomping towards us looking like he was about to become frantic just because he couldn't find us. Liz and Kid argued as I watch barely paying any attention. I would have laughed at the scene because they usually were a funny show. But I didn't I just stare at them and at Liz expression. She was pretending we didn't see anything.

I guess... she intends to avoid problems forever.


"Patty? Are you okay, you seem... off?" That was Onee-chan.

It was 'dinner', more like a all you can eat buffet as we ate course after course of food. Chicken, fish, sushi, Turkey, ham, pork, roast beef, mash potato, greens, gravy, and so many more things that I couldn't guess what was. Liz was eating enthusiastically, while Kid eat stiffly and symmetrical by his standards. Usually I eat like a pig and eat all night if I have to but I ate slowly and barely.

'Stupid... of course I off. WE FRICKIN' DID SOMETHING HORRIBLY WRONG!!!' Mentally I screamed and pretend to strangle her,

"Nope I just fine!" I said laughing, eating more. 'Hide it, hide it, hide it...'

"You sure?"

'WOULD YOU DROP ALREADY!!!'

"Yep!!" I said though my tone was sweet, I was stabbing my steak in two. Liz gulped and question no more. That's much better. Kid looked to me to Liz, to Liz back to me. He was suspicious of something that we might have done. His guess couldn't be more right. Suddenly I felt like I had to tell, because I was suffocating because of it.

I sighed and placed my fork down, "Kid-kun?"

"Hm?" Translation: He's listening enthusiastically.

"Um..." My mind went blank, I laughed it off and said, "I want the biggest room in the house! And I'm not sharing~!" 'Damnit! I did it again~! Stop avoiding the subject!!'

"No! Impossible! All the rooms are of equal size in this house! I flawlessly made sure." He was serious and I nearly busted a gut trying to hold laughter. I weakly snicker behind my hand as I thought of something.

"But now that I think about it, me and onee-chan always share a bed sooooo..." I said thoughtfully, grinning knowingly, "Wouldn't that throw off your symmetery?"

Liz looked like she was going to have a heart attack, catching on fast. Kid nearly broke his fork in half from shock. I was enjoying this thoroughly, as I stiffed a laughed by biting my knuckles.

"Patty..." Liz looked like she was gunna die, "You mean..."

"That's correct!" Kid stood up from his chair with a determine look in his face. "We are sleeping together!"

I heard a thug, and turned to see Liz on the ground. She fainted. I couldn't hold it anymore, I fall back in my chair, laughing so hard tears were running down my face, my face was red, I couldn't breathe, my ribs ached, and my legs were kicking. I watched as Kid sighed, a slight blush on his cheeks, so I guess even Gods get embarrassed. I continued to laugh as Kid walked over to Liz and draped her arm over his shoulder, picking her up. He struggled slightly seeing as he was shorter than her by a half a foot.

Slowly I stopped laughing, and got up faintly giggling. I walked over and grabbed onee-chan other arm and pulled it over my shoulder. Kid looked relieved, maybe because of the symmetry as we both carried her to his room. Finally as we got there we dumped Liz on the bed, and we both collapse on either of her side. Kid looked towards the ceiling.

"Kid-kun?" I asked softly looking towards the window, "We're family now right?"

He glance towards me for a second before looking back to the ceiling, nodding slightly, "I guess we are now."

"So no matter what the past is... it doesn't matter anymore." I said in a sing-song voice but I was being serious. I looked forward as I continued, "From now on lets think towards the future instead. We are starting a new family together. Our family from before is either gone or still here..." My voice started to lower before I perked up. "But from now on, Liz and me are going to be apart of your family. Forever and ever~! We're never gunna leave~! So I guess your stuck with us for a while."

I ended with a happy note. When I received no answer, I turned to him. His eyes were already closed and his breathe was even. I stared at him for a few more minutes, before smiling. He was already asleep I guess. I closed my eyes and snuggle into onee-chan's arm. My eyes suddenly felt heavy, as I began to doze off.

...

Maybe it doesn't matter.

My name... as long as I am someone.

...

My eyes fluttered shut and I felt a hand cover mine. It's familiar warmth I knew who it was immediately but I also felt the warmth of one I missed dearly. Her way of telling me that I'm safe. Her way of telling me that she'll always be there for me. Her way of telling me she loved me.

...

As long as I'm important to someone.

As long as I have a reason to exist.

It doesn't matter... what I'm called.

...

"Momma..." I said as I held my sister arm.

...

A rose with any other name will smell just as sweet.
