"Why does Light always ignore Misa-misa!? Or worse doesn't even act as if I exist! AMANE MISA IS YAGAMI LIGHT'S GIRLFRIEND!! And yet Misa-misa doesn't get the attention that she needs." Misa exclaimed stubbornly as she collapsed on her bed.

"Fictitious girlfriend…" Rem cracked bluntly.

It has been a while since Misa tried winning Raito's heart but all her efforts were futile. Raito remained cold, and even colder to her. She was seeking for his attention, his love and his devotion.

"Argh! Fictitious or whatever! Misa-misa doesn't care! I am still his GIRL-FRIEND!!" Misa cried out in annoyance.

She perfectly knew that everything was just a front. Raito's aiding L, her - writing people on her death note for L to be less suspicious of Raito being Kira, and the worst for her, being his girlfriend. All was just a play for Raito's gain. But still she hoped that somehow, beneath Raito's dark cloak was the love that she had been looking for.

'Why can't things work between us two? Argh! This can't be! Misa-misa wouldn't give up too easily for Kira's love! Kira… Kira… Kira… My Kira… spends more of his time with pervert Ryuuzaki!!' Misa thought to herself as an idea all so suddenly struck her like lightning.

"Ryuuzaki!!" Misa exclaimed with full excitement. "Right! Misa-misa will make Raito die of jealousy! Hai! Goodnight Rem!"

"…Goodnight Misa…" Rem replied without even bothering what was in Misa's mind knowing that everything was just a childish play or so she thought.

"My Light…" Misa whispered as she released a soft giggle before finally dozing off to a slumber sleep.

-OoO-

"Hmmmmm… la la la" Misa said in a sing-song tone.

She was in her apartment kitchen wearing a black ruffled apron and white quilted pot holders on her hands.

She slowly took out the cookie sheet from the oven revealing fancy and aromatic homemade chocolate cookies.

"Cookies?" Rem asked nonchalantly. She didn't actually care about it as long as it has nothing to do with Misa's life span, but she tried to be enthusiastic enough.

"Yup! Misa-misa made them with much love! …Too bad they'd all end up for pervert Ryuuzaki… If I'd give this to Light I think that they'd still end up with Ryuuzaki anyway… or worse in the trash bin." Misa said as she released a heavy sigh. Just thinking of what she said made her heart break into pieces.

"I see…" Rem said without any change in the previous tone that she used. She just felt required to reply.

"Well I guess Light is just not too fond of sweets." Misa tried her best to cheer herself up. There was no one to do it for her anyway. Not even the only guy she loves.

-OoO-

"…and yet again… another criminal dieds of heart attack…" Ryuuzaki, who was sitting with both feet on his chair turned to face Raito.

"I see… so that Kira is still in his regular job of killing people. But soon we'll have all his work in vain." Raito said in disdain. He had undeniably mastered the control in his tone, the preciseness in his speech and his all over expressions for his grand make-believe.

"All of your hard work in vain L" Raito taught to himself with an evil smirk in his face the very moment Ryuuzaki turned back to face his laptop on the wooden table in his work area.

'All of Kira's work in vain…' Ryuuzaki thought to himself as he slowly stirred his cup of coffee which was on the table beside his laptop along with a small plate with chocolate cake crumbs in it.

"You sure don't want anything to eat or drink? The cake is really nice." Ryuuzaki said courteously as he took the fork which he used for the cake, held it with his fingers and licked the chocolate which was on it.

"I'm fine." Raito said gracefully.

"Hi minna-san!" Misa greeted them enthusiastically and strangely without actually being clingy to Raito the very moment she entered. Her perfectly pink glossy lips were in its best smile.

"Misa." Raito greeted casually with not much care and it radiated in his whole being.

"Misa-san. It's good that you have time to visit." Ryuuzaki said in an L-ish manner.

"How's everything?" Misa moved on with a conversation.

"Same old story. Kira is still on the move. Another person died because of heart attack not long ago." Raito said in a business type tone to stop Misa from her usual useless blabbers.

Ryuuzaki sipped his coffee. 'All is well.' He took his cup down on the saucer after taking a sip and frolicked a cube of sugar in his fingers which he subsequently dropped it in his cup. He stirred his coffee and stared at his laptop monitor.

"Misa is sad to hear the same old story over and over again. I wish you luck and that Kira eternal damnation. And yeah I wished to stay longer but I'd be having a photo shoot minutes by now. Misa-misa just came to see how you two are doing and yeah," Misa said as she neared to where L was.

"Misa would like to give these home-made cookies to you Ryuuzaki." Misa handed Ryuuzaki a small white carton box with a maroon ribbon.

"Me?" Ryuuzaki asked with the fork still in his mouth. He was a bit puzzled for the sudden acts from Misa but took the box from her anyway.

"To pervert Ryuuzaki." Misa said as she stuck out her tongue. "Light is not really into sweets." She explained.

"Thank you." Ryuuzaki said in his pensive manner.

"No problem. Misa-misa would be out now! Bye bye!" Misa waved good bye and exited the room.

-OoO-

Ryuuzaki opened the box and found lovely pieces of fancily shaped chocolate cookies glazed with sugar.

"Light-kun,"

"Huh?"

"Your girlfriend is nice."

Raito did not reply with that matter.

'These are really nice cookies.'

Ryuuzaki as he is, who was endowed with great powers in deduction and reasoning, without further ado took a heart shaped cookie and started nibbling it.

"Really delicious. Makes it a perfect pair for my coffee."

-OoO-
