Julie followed Matt and me into our apartment since we were sort of throwing a welcome home party for Raine. The living room was decorated with banners and there was even a cake, but my guess was that Raine didn't even see the living room before she ran into Matt's bedroom and closed the door.

I knocked on the door softly and waited for Raine to answer. She didn't. I knew she was in there and I really wanted to talk to her and tell her welcome home...that last string of though...home? Was this really her home now? I knocked again.

"Go away!" Raine shouted without even bothering to ask who it was.

I grasped the doorknob and turned it once to the right; it was open. I pushed the door open and saw Raine lying on the bed with her face buried into the pillows. She threw a pillow at me without lifting her head up. "I said go away Mello."

"Why?" I smirked and sat on the corner of the bed. "What are you so upset about?"

"Oh like you don't know? I feel like a fucking idiot!" She threw another pillow at me to help get her point across.

I lay down on the bed beside her and started stroking her hair until she turned her head to look at me with her pure blue eyes. I remembered when they were blue-green, just like Matt's. Black streaks ran down her face; why the hell was she crying?

I wiped the makeup streaks off her face with my thumb and she smiled. "I feel so stupid...How could I come out with something like that?"

"You're not stupid Raine." I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her closer to me so she could lay her head on my chest. "And...since you brought up the issue, I already assumed you were my girlfriend. I don't give a fuck what anyone else says about it either."

Her blue eyes beamed beneath her strawberry-blonde hair and her lower lip quivered slightly. "You really mean that?"

"Would I waste my breath saying it if I didn't mean it?"

She buried her head in my chest and I kissed her forehead. "Matt made a cake for you and we decorated the living room. It's sort of a welcome home thing."

She sniffled and nodded before getting out of the bed and smoothing her clothes and hair in the mirror. It was hard to believe that anyone could grow their hair as long as hers without it getting in the way.

(Raine's Point of View)

I walked into the living room and saw Matt and Julie sitting on the couch surrounded by balloons and confetti and banners everywhere; it was nice to feel so loved by the only friends and family I had. Julie looked as pretty and young as she did when she took me home from the hospital that day. Raven locks dusted her shoulders and her wispy bangs hung just above her brown eyes. We really didn't look anything alike, but then again, we wouldn't. I hugged her and Matt and thanked them for giving me all of these decorations. Welcome...home? Was I really home?

Julie stood up and said, "Raine honey, I know your birthday isn't until Tuesday but I brought you something from Norway. Close your eyes."

I closed my eyes and heard Julie walk out of the room and then come back into the room, but it sounded like there were...two sets of footsteps this time. I was so tempted to peek and see what the surprise was.

"Open your eyes!"

I opened my eyes and was face to face with a boy that looked about fifteen years old with sandalwood colored hair that was swept over his left eye. He had a very young-featured face and a small structured body. He looked like just a kid; was I supposed to know him?

The boy tilted his head and his hair shifted with him, revealing his olive green eyes. Could it really be him? "S-sebastian?"

His eyes widened. "Raine?" He threw his arms around me and hugged me. Matt was so shocked that his cousin was here that the cigarette fell out of his mouth and onto the ground.

I hugged Sebastian and then he walked over to my brother. "You're Matt right? My mom's sister Isadora's son?"

Matt nodded, goggled hung around his neck, cigarette still on the floor. "I've never met my mom or dad or any of my other relatives. But, Mom, Aunt Sara, and Uncle Aleks are dead right? Dad left and you're our only living relative right?"

Sebastian nodded and put out his hand for Matt to shake. He could have hugged Matt. I mean sure, they never met before but Sebastian was the only living blood relative that Matt and I had. Even though Sebastian offered to shake Matt's hand, Matt gave him a hug anyway. There was a bit of resemblance between Matt and Sebastian; mostly the eyes. After our eyes changed colors, my brother and I no longer shared the same eye color. We really didn't look anything alike now, and I didn't resemble Sebastian either. But, at least I had family.

While Matt showed Sebastian his collection of video games and video gaming systems, I thanked Julie for the wonderful surprise. "Julie, I don't know how to thank you. I mean you have been like my mother since the day I was born but it's just so nice to see Sebastian again. I don't think Matt could get any happier." I hugged her and watched Sebastian interact with Matt.

Sebastian had never played video games before so Matt had to show him how to do pretty much everything. Mello just stood back in the sidelines and watched everything without voicing his opinion on anything.

"Are you okay Mels?" I asked while stealing a chocolate bar out of his pocket, unwrapping the foil, and taking a bite out of it.

He looked horrified at the completely heinous crime I had just committed. "You stole my chocolate!"

"Oh cut it out Mels. What do you think of my cousin?" I took another bite out of the chocolate bar making sure to emphasize the snapping sound it made.

"He's fine I guess. I don't know where he's staying but it's certainly not here. He can find his own place to stay; we're crowded enough here as it is." Mello plopped onto the couch and lounged across it. "And I'm not babysitting some fifteen year old little brat."

I took the chocolate bar that Mello was eating and said, "My cousin is not a brat! If I'm your girlfriend then stop being an ass."

Julie, Matt, and Sebastian froze and glanced at the argument between the blonde and me. Sebastian put down his X-Box controller and walked over to Mello who was still taking up the entire couch. "You're my cousin's boyfriend?"

Mello sat up and scoffed at Sebastian. "What the hell does it matter to you if I am or not?"

"I was just wondering." Sebastian looked at the floor. "Sorry."

I glared at Mello and pushed his legs off of the couch so I could sit too. Sebastian continued playing video games with Matt and Julie went into the kitchen to make all of us tea. Mello reached for the television remote and changed the channel, cutting off Matt and Sebastian's game.

Matt threw potato chips at Mello and said, "Turn it back!"

Kiyomi Takada was on the television announcing something about Kira. Sebastian glanced towards me and then back at the screen; he didn't know I was working with Matt and Mello on the Kira case. I didn't even know if I was allowed to tell him.

"Hey Sebastian, you know we're working to catch Kira right? To avenge the deaths of our Aunt and Uncle and-"

"L right? I've been following the Kira case since Aunt Sara and Uncle Aleks were killed. Anyone could tell the difference between L and this new imposter claiming to be L." Sebastian said almost the exact same thing I said when Matt told me about the Kira case.

Matt and Mello gaped at Sebastian. I wasn't too surprised that Sebastian knew about L's death. I may have gotten the psychic gene, but Sebastian was still our blood cousin. All of a sudden my cell phone blared and vibrated from the pocket of the leather pants Mello made me wear after that dare. It was extremely difficult to jam my cell phone into the pocket, let alone pry it out. After I managed to retrieve my cell phone, I read the name on the front before answering it.

Mello sat up and looked at my phone. "Kane? As in your abusive prick ex-boyfriend Kane?"

I nodded slowly. "I don't know why the hell he's calling me. I haven't talked to him since we broke up, and I don't want to."

Mello flipped open my phone, hit the end button, and slammed it shut again. "Problem solved."

As soon as he closed my phone it started ringing again. Kane. Mello grabbed my phone and snapped it in half. He didn't even ask me before he took the initiative and broke my phone asunder. What the hell was going on? Why was that asshole calling me?

The phone in the apartment started ringing next as did Mello and Matt's cell phones. The number was the same on every phone...Kane. Kane Falls. And then I felt the head pain coming again, the vision head pain...

A/N: If you want a background profile on Kane check out my story called Sue vs Non Sue OCs. What did you all think of Sebastian? Should I make his character profile as well? Also, what do you all think of instead of Light being Kira, Kane is Kira? I am working on a backstory for Sebastian right now. He reminds me of Ciel from Black Butler a little bit; that's probably why he's only a kid and why his name is Sebastian XD
