I don't own anything, etc, etc. Hope you like it!

Ryuuzaki flinched noticably as two soft, delicate hands snaked around to the front of his head, covering his eyes. As if he didn't know who they belonged to.

He sighed. "Misa-san, I apologize but I have no time to play right now."

The petite blonde giggled. "Ryuuzaki-san never has time to play! That's why Misa must force him to!"

Misa Amane had taken a liking to bothering the detective. He was peculiar, staying up into the late hours of the night working on the Kira case…or did he even sleep at all? Regardless, there was something insanely cute about him. He reminded Misa of a puppy, or maybe a small child. She figured it was the silly way he sat, with his knees pulled up tightly against his chest, or perhaps the innocent way he chewed on his thumb when he was working something out in his mind. He was just so nice, which was a huge contrast to the man she loved.

Light Yagami. He was working with Ryuuzaki to solve the Kira case. She had promised her life to him, and yet, he didn't give a damn about her. She longed for his love. She wanted it more than any modeling opportunity or movie role. She allowed this hope to fill her being, to take over her life, until the truth was no longer visible. Yes, deep down, Light must love her, she often thought to herself. He's just really busy with the investigation…after it's all over, they'd be able to start a life together. Yes! That's what would happen! Right…?

She didn't like thinking about this. Maybe it was because deep down, she knew he didn't love her, and every time she pondered it, a cold feeling would creep up her spine, gradually filling her whole body like an ice storm. But that's not what Misa-Misa was supposed to feel. Misa-Misa is fun and bubbly! She was forced to hide her unhappiness. Bothering Ryuuzaki was a good way of achieving this. She didn't know why, but being around him filled her with a warmth, a sense of comfort.

"Misa-san, please. I request that you remove the 'blindfold'. This investigation requires all of my attention right now. Why don't you go talk to Light? I'm sure he'd desire your company."

Misa's posture slackened slightly at the mention of this, but still, she did not let go. Ryuuzaki attempted to brush her hands away from his eyes, and at the contact, Misa felt a jolt of electricity travel from her hands to every nerve in her body. That's why, Ryuuzaki-san. Light can't make Misa feel that.

"But Ryuuzaki-san, Light is always busy too, and Misa is lonely. What is Misa supposed to do?"

"Well Misa-san, why don't you read a magazine? You could look for all of the ads featuring you. Or perhaps you could listen to some music in your room."

Misa felt her heart sink slightly. "You don't want Misa around either? Is Misa not cute enough for you? Not smart enough? Not fun enough? Why doesn't anyone love Misa?" Her eyes were filling with tears, both from the overflow of emotions and the embarrassment of expressing them to Ryuuzaki, of all people.

"Misa-san…you are a very cute girl, you have many fans and admirers who love you, and if there wasn't so much to do, I wouldn't mind having you around. But at the moment, there are some things that have to come before human emotions. This case is more important than anything you're feeling, to put it bluntly. Now, if you don't mind, Misa-san, please go occupy yourself in another manner."

Misa put her hands on her hips and scowled. "Hmph! Fine Ryuuzaki-san. Misa will find something better to use her time on!" And with that, she flounced out of the room, but not without throwing an unseen look of hurt at Ryuuzaki before she rounded the corner.

While walking down the hall to her room, Misa racked her brain with ideas for something entertaining to do. She considered Ryuuzaki's magazine idea, but she had already done that with all of the month's issues of her favorite magazines. She then thought about Ryuuzaki's second idea. Suddenly, the corners of her mouth upturned into a sly grin. Oh, she had an idea alright. Ryuuzaki will be the one wanting to play with her.
