A/N: I've picked out various songs for each chapter but given there's not a way to link it, I'm just going to put the name of the song and hopefully you guys can look it up.

Someday You Will Be Loved-Death Cab For Cutie

Tapping her pen against the table, she watched as the teacher continued to lecture on and on about today's current lesson. This was a trivial topic, something everyone had already been introduced to, why he was going over it? No one knew why, perhaps he assumed everyone had forgotten over the years of high school and enrollment. With a sigh she pulled out her own little sketchbook and doodled on the small sheets of paper. The neighboring student watched curiously as she drew out simple images such as faces and cartooned people. Was this really the girl that had scored in the tops like himself? She hardly ever took notes and rarely payed attention. He wondered what type of person she was.

"Hey," her eyes looked to him while her head still downcast to her book "do you have an eraser?" she asked before shaking her pencil slightly. Had she already gone through a whole eraser?

"Um, yeah." he responded before sifting through her own bag; in it he found his own spare and handed it to her. Mouthing a thanks she continued to doodle and tune out her professor, or at least he presumed she wasn't listening.

Watching her draw more in that little black book of her's, he noticed the likeness to his own face. Was she drawing him? After a good five minutes, she tore the page out, which was filled with his own profile, and handed it to him. He took it and stared for a moment.

"A compensation of sorts, if you don't like it throw it away." she shrugged before continuing on with another page.

"Thanks." he responded simply "You're talented." he complimented her before tucking the image away into a paperclip which was then attached to his current notes. She smiled slightly and thanked him again, but before he could say anything else, the bell rang as students packed away notes and hurried to their next period. He, however, had a free period; usually he'd go and see Ryuzaki or be visited by Misa but today he was more interested in this girl. Perhaps she would make a good candidate for him to see on the side, as he had told Misa.


She sipped on coffee before tapping her notebook and looking off deep in thought. With a sigh, she thought about the argument that had been brought up between her and her step-father. While she didn't want to hate him for her mother's sake, everything he did simply angered her. He was thickheaded and thought with his heart, and was never very logical, especially when it came to fighting with her; he always said that since he was older, he knew better. She hated people like that, the people who can't be reasoned with.

"I'm not saying I support him, I'm just trying to see from both sides of the story." she responded before taking a bite of her food. The man huffed.

"He's evil! Kira is evil and all he's doing is murdering people! Either you support him or you don't!" he yelled, clearly he had drank too much sake.

Did she really feel indifferent? Part of liked the fact that someone had finally taken the responsibility to clean up this world, but then, she also felt that people should be given second chances. The whole topic is so hard to pick a side with... Then someone came to mind, a far too perfect student, a far too perfect person; Light Yagami. He sat by her often and would look to see her draw, but they never spoke much. Why was she thinking of him now? Shrugging it off she took a final sip of her coffee before standing and tucking her papers away. The jingle of the door alerted her, usually no one comes in this early; people are usually in class.

"Yeah, I'll just have small cup of your coffee. No sweeteners." that voice and that hair. Light Yagami? Speak of the devil and he...

The younger man turned around before looking to the girl he often sat by.

"Hey, Kaminari-chan." her face dusted with pink upon hearing her first name with the intimate suffix. Just what was this guy playing at by going on a first name basis? They hardly ever spoke.

"O-Oi," she smiled awkwardly while a light shade of pigment lasted on her cheeks "are you always so cheeky?" she questioned and he chuckled before taking a seat across from her.

"Depends on who you ask." he replied with a smile before knitting his hands together. Raising a brow, she looked down to her fingers and spun them around one another pointlessly.

"I really think you're a talented artist, are you majoring in some art?" he asked with genuine eyes. What was with this guy? Usually he seemed to bored and standoff-ish, but now he's curious about her and wants to chat over a cup of coffee? She should be careful here, even if he is a grade A student, there's no guarantee he won't try to pull something.

"U-Uh yeah, I'm taking business and advertising along with a general art class; I want to sell my art and be hired for concept art or creating business logos. What about yourself?" she asked before tapping her finger against the table.

"Well, I'm working on joining the police department like my father. We'll actually be working on a case together." he smile before knitting his fingers together and resting his head on the entwined digits. He just looked so genuinely interested she didn't know how to react.

"Oh wow, that's pretty cool. Is it something exciting like the Kira case?" she asked before pulling out her sketchbook.

"Nothing like that, but, that has become quite the popular topic. In one of my classes a student and a professor started debating on who had the morally correct stance, it was quite laughable." he chuckled to himself while she faked amusement "Say, what do you think of Kira?" he asked with the slight tilt of his head. The light in his eyes changed.

"Kira? Well, I'm not sure, I'm just so curious how he kills. While part of me likes the idea of ridding a society from major crime, another part says people deserve another chance to be reformed. But then again, that doesn't always work..." she trailed off before returning to the topic in her head. What a puzzling person.

"Ah, seeing both sides? Very insightful of you, I'm sure there would be many people who are blinded by their own beliefs." he compliment her and she thanked him.

"What about yourself, Yagami-senpai?" she asked with empty eyes.

"Well, I suppose I personally lean more towards Kira's side, but I do see where his tactics are unethical and could change. Like you said, I dream of an ideal world." he brought his finger to his chin as if deep in thought.

"Interesting, I thought a smartass like yourself would lean the other way. I'm surprised to say the least." she responded jokingly. He laughed lightly before taking a sip of his coffee. She took a sip of her own before returning to a drawing she had been working on for another class. While it wasn't graded, a daily sketch was given for the week. This one was more fantasy like and surreal.

"We should do this again, Kaminari-chan." again hearing her first name, she blushed before nodding. He said his goodbye and explained his next class would start soon. As he left, she wrote down his name with a question mark. Was he trying to take advantage of her?
