After the meeting it was about 2 p.m. The meeting had gone pass lunch time and I was starving. "I'm so hungry," I complained. L was eating a piece of chocolate cake; it looked so good. Then, my stomach started growling.
"Looks like your stomach agrees," Light laughed. I reached for L's cake, only to get pinned to the ground by him. Damn, he's fast.
"Can I just have some cake?" I pouted. He thought for a minute.
"No," he said taking a huge bite out his cake. I just laid there waiting for him to finish. He finally finished and got off of me. I got up and started walking away. No one stopped me, so I kept walking. I walked outside and looked around. I saw a pizza hut and a game stop. I walked to the pizza hut and saw L and Light waiting for me. 'Oh gosh,' I thought and walked over to them.
"What are you two doing here?" I asked.
"Waiting for you," Light said.
"What kind of pizza do you want?" I asked, smiling.
"Pineapple," Light said. L and I just started staring at him. 'Who eats pineapple on their pizza? Italians probably,' I thought. I shrugged and went to order. I came back with a pineapple pizza. L and I looked at Light as we took a huge bite of the pizza.
"That's nasty," I said spitting it out. Light started cracking up. "What's so funny?" I asked, suspiciously.
"You're face looked so hilarious," he said between gasps. I sighed and left. I walked next door to game stop to play some demo games. I walked in and saw a huge crowd of boys surrounding two boys. It was a tough game of Call of Duty.
I knew the basics about the game from living with three older brothers, but I probably wasn't as good as them. Their game lasted a good ten minutes and one of them finally won. They turned around and I discovered that the two players were Matt and Mello. Of course, Matt was the winner.
"Dammit Matt, you always win," Mello smiled.
"It must be a gift," Matt joked.
"Wow Matt. You've almost beat everyone in this store," the manager congratulated. The only one he hasn't beat was me. "Anyone else want to challenge Matt?" he asked.
"I will," I spoke up. 'I'm going to regret this,' I gulped. I went up to the controller and started playing. Once I started playing it took me back to when I played with my brother. I couldn't remember much of the game; it was so fast and over so quickly.
"We have a winner," the manager said, pointing to me. Everyone started clapping. I was speechless.
"You got beat by a girl," Mello said to Matt.
"Can't win them all," Matt shrugged. I walked over to them and smiled.
"Nice game," Matt said. His rusty red hair hung over his eyes.
"Thanks. You did a really good job," I complimented.
"Back at you," he mumbled.
"Matt, we got to go," Mello said, pointing to his imaginary watch. Matt just rolled his eyes.
"Well I better go. What's your name, anyway?" he asked.
"I'm Karen," I answered
"See you around, Karen." He waved as he and Mello left. I looked at the time and it was six o'clock. 'I better get back,' I thought as I walked back to "home". I walked in and smelt tacos. I realized I was still hungry. I followed the smell and ended up in the dining room.
"Looks like its dinner time," I smiled as I saw Misa, Light, and L sitting around the table. I sat down, but saw a few empty chairs. "Who's chairs…" I started, but was interrupted.
"Sorry we're late, L. Matt was playing video games," A voice said; I instantly knew it was Mello. They walked in and sat down. I knew they recognized me. 'This is going to be an awkward dinner,' I thought.
