Wishing

Chapter 1

Ruki Yakahana walked in the snow-filled streets of Japan. The icy air whipped against her cheeks, reddening them until they were the color of cherries. With a slight, dreamy sigh, she pushed her fiery auburn streak out of her eyes and into the remainder of the rest of her black hair.

Ruki had been dreaming a lot lately. Of him. L Lawliet. Slightly creepy looking, with obsidian black eyes and coal-black hair, he sent her into shivers of timidity with one glance.

In her dreams, L called her name, pleading. He was begging her for her help. His cries made her want to run to him, but she could not because the atmosphere was too dark to see in.

More scenes of the dream appeared and differed throughout it: L, lying in a snow bank, with his eyes shut, unconscious; L, sleeping peacefully with a soft, pale blue, fleece blanket wrapped around him; L, shifting slightly as he dreamed in said bed.

Ruki sighed slightly, giving herself a gentle shake. 'Maybe my dreams are trying to tell me something,' she thought. 'But what? I hope nothing bad is going to happen to L.'

Indeed, it did seem as though something bad would happen to L. Ruki tried not to worry, though. After all, it was just a dream wasn't it?

She continued walking home and resumed her daydreams about her secret crush, L Lawliet.
