A/N: Wow, I updated. XD

Okie, short chapter. I tried to add some humour in it... think of it as a filler of sorts. :P

The rest of the day passed by very quickly. After lunch the boys had a free double period, because the teacher didn't even bother arriving to class and the students happily took advantage of that.

Matt got a detention.

…No wait… Make that two.

"L, you traitor!" Matt whined, trying the puppy-dog look at the detective in front of him, but L was unfazed. "It's the first day of school, so why give me a detention now, let alone two, and not another day?"

"Because you deserve it," L deadpanned, "You ate the last sugar cube, and no one eats the last sugar cube except me." Behind him, Mello poked his shoulder.

"Why the hell did you give him two detentions?" He inquired, eyeing the insomniac questioningly.

"For eating the sugar cube and pissing me off." L quipped, smirking at the chocoholic.

"Meanie!" Matt stuck his tongue out.

"Do you want to walk home?" L threatened, his dark eyes boring into Matt's goggle-clad ones.

Matt immediately shrunk back, "N-No, sir!" He squeaked.

"Good," L smiled, his mood calming. "Now get in the car." He pointed to the shiny black car parked in front of the school.

Near paled, "Actually, walking sounds good right now." He piped up, Matt and Mello whole-heartedly agreeing.

--

"House… too… far…" Mello panted, collapsing on his knees onto the hard path below.

"Why did we agree to this?" Matt moaned, wiping some sweat off his forehead. The red-head then blinked, "Oh, yeah. L's driving. Right."

"It's only been ten minutes, and you two are already complaining." Near frowned, twirling a lock of white hair. "And I'm supposed to be the weakest here…" He muttered to himself.

"I heard that!" Mello growled, quickly standing up and catching up with the other boys.

"It wasn't supposed to be heard." Near retorted, turning his head to the blonde.

"Well, I heard it. So there." Mello stuck his tongue out childishly.

"It still wasn't supposed to be heard." Near pouted.

"Can you resume your lovers' quarrel once we get home?!" Matt snapped, throwing his hands up in the air.

"Shut up!" Mello fumed, flipping the red-head off.

Near blinked, "I have never heard you two snap at each other like that." The white-haired boy commented.

"God!" Matt wailed, "The stupid heat is getting into our heads!"

Mello looked from the corner of his eye and saw a shiny white limo stopping next to them. The passenger's window rolled down and behind it was Misa smiling at the boys.

"Do Mello and his friends need a lift?" She giggled, her cherry red lips curling up at the sides a bit more.

"It would be greatly appreciated, yes!" Mello grinned, opening the door and dragging both Matt and Near inside Misa's limo with him.

--

The limo stopped in front of the house that the boys and L shared. The three boys got out of the limo and waved at Misa politely.

"Thank you Misa-chan for the lift." Near smiled, waving at Mello's cousin.

"Anything for Mello and his buddies!" Misa waved, rolled up the window and the limo sped off.

"Your cousin is awesome, Mels." Matt grinned, "And hot too. That's a bonus!" Mello glared at him and the gamer immediately shut up.

"Uhh," Near nudged the two boys and pointed next door, "Crazy cat lady, 10 o'clock."

"Shit!" Mello cursed and scrambled to unlock the door. "Damnit, I forgot the keys!" He hissed.

"Hello children!" The cat lady greeted, a creepy smile on her wrinkly face. "Would you like to help me brush Mr. Fluffles?" She held up a fuzzy grey cat. The cat's red eyes gleamed and it showed its sharp teeth.

Matt pushed Mello out of the way and started banging on the door with his fists, "L! OPEN UP! WE'RE GONNA DIE BY MR. FLUFFLES!" He screamed, drawing the attention of passer-by's and neighbours. When they saw the cat lady, they quickly retreated back into their homes.

Suddenly the door opened to reveal L's panicked face, "Get inside, quickly!" He ushered the boys into the house and slammed the door.

The cat lady frowned and turned to her fuzzy cat, "I'm sorry, Mr. Fluffles. You won't be getting a brush today."

Mr. Fluffles mewled.

A/N: Since I don't have time... I can't answer your reviews, I'm terribly sorry!
