The British Standard chpt 6
Con. Of last chapter
When they open the door, no one's in there. "Hmm…I wonder where everyone is." Watari says setting the cake on the table. Mello spots Near and rushes after him. L and Margie take a seat by Watari. L feels something under his feet. He looks down "Hey, Mr. Fluffy." The cat rubbed against his legs and Margie laid her head on the table.
A moment later, someone opens the door. L turns around to see who it is "Hi, Aunt Josie, where is everyone?" Josie smiles "Right here." She opens the door and everyone form the orphanage runs in. Mello runs to L "Surprise!" L smiles and then lowers his head. Watari runs over and rubbed his back "What is it, L?" Everyone looked at him "I miss my parents, Watari." L says flinging his head into Watari's chest. "Easy, L, everyone here knows what you're going through." L wipes his eyes "I know, it's just tough to realize that their gone." Watari wraps him in a hug and soon all the other kids huddle around him. L smiles "Thanks. Watari, can I open presents now?" Watari looks at Josie and says "Sure, why not."
Josie pulls over a large chair and puts it in the middle of the room. Everyone surrounds L as he mounts it and then he starts unwrapping. There wasn't a whole lot, but it made him happy that he got something. He came to the last one. It was a regular gift, and it had regular wrapping on it. L read the tag in his head "To L, from Watari." L grins and ripped all that paper off. He uncovered a small brown stuffed dog. L looks at it "This is the one from that store, right? Thank you, Watari." Watari smiles "Your welcome, L. You kept eyeing that ever since we got off the plane." L runs over and bear hugs Watari. Watari whispers in L's ear "Your parents may be gone, but I'm not."
After the presents were opened, they all ate the cake. L had two large pieces of it. Then Watari and Josie cleaned up the room. Margie and L went back to his room with all of the presents and put them away.Margie had gotten him a new set of cars. They were setting them in the toy box when L remembered he left the dog Watari had got him back in the orphanage. He was just about to open the door when Margie holds it in front of her. L takes it and thanks her.
After putting everything away, Margie leaves for home. Watari sits in the living room with L. "Now, since you're a year older, you need to take more responsibilities for yourself." L hugs the dog and nods "Ok, I'll try." Watari ruffled L's hair "That's what I wanted to hear."
A few hours later, L relaxes on the couch and watches TV. He covers with his blanket and cuddles him new dog. Watari watches the clock chime 8:00. He thinks "Better get him in bed." So he walks over to him and hoists him into his arms. L wakes up "Watari, thanks for a great day. I'm glad you gave me Buff. He's the best gift I've ever gotten." Watari smiles "I'm glad you're glad. Now shut your eyes." L nods and rests his head on Watari's arm. "L, you're going to be great someday, you just don't know it."
Phew. That one wore me out. Cute chapter huh? Tell me what you thought.
