The Missing Piece: Note 8
Mana smiled as she carefully played with her pencil, swaying it back and forth as if it were an airplane. The small action brought pleasant memories of Near and the orphanage, then it brought weird feelings and thoughts of L.
The sound of someone clearing their voice reached Mana.
She smiled and slowly her pencil settled onto the desk. Her eyes set forth towards the teacher,Which she now knew as the person who had cleared his throat, and which was giving her a stern look. She smiled childishly and placed her hands on her raised knee. The teacher slowly turned back towards the board. Mana quickly stuck her tongue out and faced Light. He had been seated on the other side of the room, Right by the large set of glass windows. Mana at the time envied him, seeing as he could stare out the window. Light gave her a stern look, which through out the day she found meant 'stop'.
She pouted, her small cheeks sticking out, and turned around to face the front. The many students that had been surrounding her had been smiling at her; they obviously enjoyed her child like behavior, why, she didn't know, all she knew is she was happy.
She let her feet drop to the floor, her sandals cushioning her feet as they hit the floor. The teacher at the time had been speaking on and on about the English culture, Mana understood all this. She was supposed to go to a Japanese class tomorrow, why did she get stuck learning English again? She let her chin rest in her palm, the thoughts of many sweets running through her mind, and then it slowly moved on to L and his sweets. She could imagine him, sitting in his peculiar way, just like Near and enjoying many, many sweets. She hadn't really noticed it, but her and L were very alike. She might have been smart on paper, but, as Mello had told her, she wasn't very smart when it came to street knowledge. How to behave, she didn't behave like she knew every logical word in the dictionary, no she looked like a normal teenager, who was just stuck inside a small Childs body.
"Everyone stand."
Mana snapped out of her daze as every one stood. She quickly stood to her feet.
"Bow."
She took her bow and after the end-of-the-day bell rang; many girls and boys swarmed her. Most the girls all rushing to her side and playing with her hair. Mana looked up towards them, she was much smaller than any of these girls, like Light, she reached their breasts. Mana looked up at the guys, they were all smiling at her. She smiled back, as she had done all day.
"Mana-Chan you sure are cute."
One of the girls squealed, Mana felt a small tug on her pigtail. She winced as it had hurt her scalp.
"Ouch." Mana gasped, her cheeks getting a bit red. The girls all got quiet, and instantly, all at once, they squealed and tried to hug Mana. The guys each glaring as the girls swarmed over.
"Mana-Chan is so cute!"
"You girls are going to suffocate Mana-Chan like that!"
Mana turned towards the boy who had stepped out from the crowd.
"It's alright...Dai-Kun."
The boy blushed madly as he stepped back into the crowd.
"Mana-Chan!"
Mana looked the other way, behind the group of girls was Light, and his hand was waving back and forth trying his best to catch her attention. Mana smiled and gave a small wave back. She turned to the group of girls blocking her way and with a sweet smile.
"Yagami-san is waiting for Mana, can everyone please move." All the girls, their eyes still glittering, made a small path. Mana walked through it, giving the group of girls weird stares. When Mana was standing beside Light she looked up towards him.
"Everyone here acts weird Yagami-san."
Light looked down towards Mana and gave a smile, his eyes closing also.
"Well, most the people here never really seen a girl as cute as you Mana-Chan, they're just surprised. Besides your also a famous musician."
"Mana knows this, but still. why do they stare at me like that."
She turned back to see the group all staring at her, most boys had what you called lust in their eyes, while the girls looked at her as if she were a new born child. Mana turned back towards Light. He shrugged and held out his hand. Mana smiled and took a hold of it. They both walked out the class, Mana humming one of her songs. The image of a toddler holding its mothers hand playing in the minds of the Daikoku Highs Students.
Ending Note: Alright, sorry this one was a little ...Not there. It was so short because of my current writers block. Although the next one will probably be involved with much ManaXLight the chapter should be a lot longer too.
