Summary: AU. Death Note/ Naruto. Some drabbles for the year.

Drabble One- February 1st

To say that Matt was not a morning person would be an understatement, Naruto had learnt that the hard way when he and his brother Mello, both nutty off chocolate had come bouncing into the room at 8am to wake Matt up. As soon as the words Get up lazy ass! had reached Matt's ears, the number one hyper active knuckle head ninja had found himself flying magically across the room, courtesy of Matt's fist.

"Go away." Matt growled from his bed, burying his head deeper into the pillows.

"Aw, but Matt, don't you know what day it is?" Mello moaned as Naruto succeeded in picking himself up.

"No, and I don't care."

"It's February the first! Your birthday!"

"So?" Both blonds looked at each other, they had not spent a lot of money on Matt's present to be greeted like this. Nodding to each other, Naruto filled a glass with cold water and threw it over Matt.

The instant scream could have woke the dead and would have made little girls proud, but his expression, the expression of utter shock, horror and amazement was absolutely priceless! It took a few moments for Matt to collect himself and during that time both the nutty blonds had collapsed on the floor, choking with laughter.

There was the sound of footsteps on the stairs and after a moment Sasuke and L came flying into the room, they looked from the two hyper idiots on the floor to Matt, soaked through and they both sighed. "You two really are stupid." Sasuke muttered before following L out the room, leaving Matt to glare at Mello and Naruto, a plan formulating in his mind.

Standing up, unnoticed by the laughing fools, Matt left the room and came back a few moments later carrying armfuls of boxed ramen and chocolate bars. He opened the window and shouted out, "Free ramen and chocolate for all." Everyone on the street below looked up at the exact same time that Mello and Naruto did and screamed "NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" Too late. Matt had chucked everything he was holding out the window, there were cheers from below. Naruto and Mello wore the exact same expression as Matt had when they threw water over him.

"See ya later." Matt said, walking out the room still in his red pajama's. The blonds were exactly where he'd left them, knelt staring at the window in shock, ten minutes later when Matt was opening presents off all his friends.

Sakura was in fits of laughter with Ino when he told them what he'd done to get revenge, Sasuke was shaking his head, wondering how he ever became friends with these pysco's while Near was just staring. The albino supressed a laugh as Naruto and Mello came down the stairs, looking furious.

They walked up behind Matt who remained oblivious to them and without further ado, Mello picked him up over his shoulder, carried him out the back door to the freezing swimming pool and, just like that, dropped Matt into the water. Once again, Matt screamed and the blonds laughed, that was, until Matt grabbed both their ankles and yanked them both into the pool.


Half an hour later, they were all good friends again. The trio was sat in front of the fire with blankets wrapped around them, Matt was half concentrated on his new game which he was playing on his new x-box from Naruto and Mello while half concentrated on keeping warm. As soon as Matt completed level 5 Watari called them, saying that dinner was ready. Mello and Naruto were first to the dining room where the huge table was filled with everyone's favorite food, there was a huge pot of pork flavored ramen and, much to Mello's delight, a chocolate cake a meter wide.

Matt watched all his friends from a distance, yes, despite the water incidents, this was the best birthday he'd ever had.
