Chapter one:
I had gotten into a fight with another one of the students and since the nurse was on vacation we had to go to the hospital to get healed up.
The nurse would be back in a few days but it wasn't worth the wounds getting infected according to Rodger.
I had gotten my wounds healed which was just a small scratch on my cheek and one or two bruises since I had over powered the other. I didn't care enough to know the kids name that I got into a fight with.
He was just a weak big mouth who thought he was a hot shot.
I am sitting in the waiting room with Rodger talking to a nurse as the other was getting healed. I think he said he wanted to see how long it'll be but I didn't care either way as I sat in the chair slightly slouched with my arms crossed. I glance away from Rodger and who my eyes land on just in the hall just outside of the waiting room, which has no door, makes me blink as I feel surprised at all these good feeling emotions wash over me. I get up and go over to the boy. "Um excuse me."
He was walking down the hall just strolling but stopped when I spoke. He looks to me and I swear my heart stopped for a second or two. His wide stormy grey eyes are captivating and his white curly hair, pale skin with a white button up shirt with white slightly baggy pants with finally white socks make him look angel like. "Yes?"
I can't keep my eyes off of him.
He looks to be maybe two years younger than I am.
"What's your name. If you don't mind me asking." I ask.
He blinks and his calm look on his face hasn't changed. "I am Nate." He says tilting his head softly.
"Hello Nate. I am Mihael but everyone calls me Mello." I can't stop the words tumbling out of my mouth but at the moment my mind is too lost on Nate to really care.
"Nice to meet you Mello." He greets.
No one's P.O.V.
"Well Mello." Rodger turns to where he left Mello only to see the blonde is gone. "Mello?" He looks around only to notice the blonde in the hall talking to a mostly albino boy. He blinks and watches them for a few moments as they talk there in the hall.
The mostly albino boy suddenly raises his arms and covers a cough the best he can.
The cough slightly shakes his body.
Mello moves closer and the way he is Rodger can tell the blonde is worried now.
The cough only lasts a few seconds then the mostly albino boy lowers his arms only to turn to Mello again but this time as a very slight shake to his body that he is quickly working to get under control.
Mello says something, most likely 'are you ok?' in which the boy answers with a soft nod then a few words.
"Seems he has come to a liking with one of our patients." The nurse comes over to Rodger's side making Rodger jump.
"I guess. Who is that boy?" Rodger asks.
"I'm not allowed to give out personal information." The nurse replies simply.
"Mr. Rodger?" Another nurse speaks up making Rodger turn to her seeing the other boy he had been waiting for with the other nurse. "Keep him doing more relaxing things keeping him away from more physical activity for at least a few days." She warns him.
"Ah yes thank you." Rodger goes over to the boy more beat up than Mello. "Let's go back now." He says glad that the health care is free thanks to taxes. He turns to lead the other boy out of the hospital and sees Mello saying his goodbyes as a doctor leads the mostly albino boy away. He and the other boy go over to Mello. "You ready to go?" He asks the blonde who is watching the mostly albino boy walk away.
Mello looks to Rodger. "I guess." He shrugs and with that the three of them leave the hospital.
Though on the ride home Mello seems really distracted.
Rodger wonders what has gotten into Mello.
Was it seeing the boy at the hospital and meeting him that brought up something inside the blonde?
After all the blonde hasn't been to a hospital before since his parents preferred to take care of wounds at home then when they died the Whammy's house orphanage nurse took care of all things medical.
So it's possible this may have been an eye opener in some sense to Mello.
Rodger tries to shrug it off as he keeps driving the two back to the orphanage.
However the next day when classes were going on and Rodger was sitting in his office doing some work when he gets a call from a teacher…. The teacher that has Mello in her class now…. Only Mello isn't in the class right now!
He's skipping.
So Rodger tells the teacher he'll figure out why Mello is skipping then hangs up. He gets up and goes to Mello's room first knocking then when there was no response he enters glancing around not seeing the blonde. "Strange. Usually he is either in class or studying to make sure no one beats him so he stays as number one." He says to himself closing the blonde's room door. He checks the library but the librarian who knows who comes into the library at the exact time also for how long says that Mello isn't in the library.
She's never been wrong on who is in the library, what time they entered and how long they were in there for so Rodger leaves disappointed.
He wonders where the blonde could be as he looks all over the orphanage coming up empty handed.
Until a teacher with no classes right now passes by seeing him looking for someone. "Rodger are you looking for Mello?" He asks the older man.
Rodger looks to the teacher. "Yes. Where is he?"
The teacher gives a gentle smile. "Oh I saw him leave a little while ago. When I asked him where he was going he said he was going to meet with a friend and promised he'd be back then he left."
Rodger sighs softly. "Well this is new. Where has that boy gone off to? It'd better not be to get into any trouble." He rubs his temples.
AN:
Since Near, real name is Nate, in this story never went to Whammy's he is a little different.
That's that. Ok?
Hope you are enjoying.
Reviews are awesome and flamers will be used to make cupcakes!
Mello.
