REALLY short chapter because I didn't want to leave you hanging for too long before I got into the main action-ey part of the story, so.. Here you are?

Enjoy this minuscule, bite sized chapter :)

It had been a couple of days since the painful car ride back to the rundown 'base'. Mello, who had secretly been shaken by watching a bleeding girl nearly die in the back of his best friend's car, had been completely ignoring her. He had, with a decent amount of effort, created a dam to push away all the thoughts about her, and now he paid no mind to her at all. He didn't even glance at her as he walked past her going to pick up Matt's car keys from the rickety table by the sofa where his friend had laid her while she was unconscious. She hadn't moved from there, even after she had woken up, realising that her legs were still too weak to walk without support, and she'd be damned if she called on Mello or Matt for help. So she suffered in silence, wincing and cringing on the dirty, sagging sofa.

When Matt wasn't busy hacking and playing his computer games, he would sometimes offer her a drink and some food. There wasn't anything but some order-in pizzas and instant ramen and the occasional glass of water for her to have, but that was enough to satisfy her. She would sometimes ask Matt to let her watch him play video games and even this small request made her cringe. She really wasn't used to relying people, and what had happened to her was almost like an omen as to why she shouldn't.

That day had been a day like any other. Jet was treasuring a class of icy water and a pot of ramen. Mello had secretly been watching her from the doorway to make sure her condition was improving. She was, but she seemed to be worrying over her condition more than usual. She kept on feeling her scalp, biting her lip and touching the bald patches shakily with the arm that was still functioning. This seemed to be another area of worry for her- her other arm had stopped working completely after the skin had healed over the bullet, leaving her with an ugly mark and a useless arm. For the umpteenth time she ran her hand through her patched hair and sighed, turning to spot Mello standing in the doorway peering at her curiously.

"Mello… How bad is my hair?" She said in a gravely voice, and he held back from cringing, pushing all the emotion from his face. He really didn't want to tell her quite how bad it looked, especially about how her hair was falling out more and more by the second, but he had to, really.

"Very. And it's still falling out." She scrunched her face up and rubbed at her temple with her hand, and tried to decide what to do. Finally, she had an idea.

"Have you got something I could use to shave my head?" She questioned in a meagre voice, avoiding looking at the blonde, who's eyebrows were rocketing upwards under his fringe.

It was then that Matt put Mello out of his awkward misery and came through with an electric razor (A/N I couldn't really remember what they were called… Hope I got it right. If not, let me know XD) and waved it to catch Jet's attention. She smiled half-heartedly and sat up and looked at the redhead fleetingly.

"Would you be able to help me?" The gamer frowned slightly but nodded and moved towards her with the razor, switching it on and putting it shakily to her scalp and shaving away the soft hair, wincing as he heard the razor run over a scab.

About ten minutes later, Jet was running her hand over her scalp with tears stinging at her eyes. She could feel her scar that she had been born with, but couldn't see the shocked faces of Matt and Mello who could see it shining bright on her pale skin.

Who is this girl? A better question would be… What is this girl?

Well, that was it. Hope it was okay for you! Again, I know it's short. I'm getting into the main part of the story soon.
So Jet shaved her head! O: And she doesn't seem to help beginning to trust Matty and Mels. Hm... I wonder what'll happen next... Well, I know, but you don't. xD
Okay, look out for the next chapter, and R E V I E W! Reviews= Rainbows and fluffy bunnies and naked Mello and Matt! Well, the last part is optional :P
Bye bye~! x
