Light watched carefully
as Rem left the room… Just as the last bit of him was through the
wall, the countdown started…. Before L's death, before he won the
non-stop battle between the word's greatest detective and
Kira…
Light smirked as he watched L crunch another Hello panda
in his fingers, as he continued to watch the screen with those wide
dark eyes… A sudden feeling of Guilt shot through Light's
heart.
Each moment he waited as L sat there unknowingly… he was
going to die within seconds…
Light's stomach clenched tightly,
each second hurt even more and more... He clenched his fists, the
thought was unbearable, and he couldn't take it anymore…
He
turned and started running as quickly as he could to the room Rem was
in, each second counted…
"Light?!" His curious father
called to his retreating son.
Light's heart pounded as he thrust
the door open to the room… the death note sat still in a pile of
sand. He rushed to it and took the Death Note, opening it with such
force he thought it was about to rip.
L Lawliet had been written
in black ink… He pulled a pen out of his pocket, and scratched the
name out over and over again, his heart pounding…. He heard a large
thump in a room over… screams fallowed it… He threw the note down
and ran to the other room.
L Lie silently on the floor, his chair
crooked, a fallen spoon, and the agents' faces absolutely
horrified…
Light ran to L's side, holding him in his arms, L's
eyes stared into Light's, but slowly closed…
What felt like
tears prickled at Light's eyes, the erg to cry over his fallen
enemy was hitting him with tremendous force…
"...D-….DAMNIT!!"
Light screamed, and then pressing his ear on L's chest, the
heartbeat he wanted to hear so badly wasn't there… He grinded his
teeth and yelled in L's face,
"WAKE UP! I KNOW YOU'RE
ALIVE!! I scratched your name out…. You ARE SUPPOSED TO
BE ALIVE RIGHT NOW!!" Tears dripped onto L's pallid cheek as
Light cried silently, hoping the other agents wouldn't see his
tears.
"Light…" Matsuda whispered quietly, "Wait, if L is
dead; the Shinigami will surely kill us next--…" Aizawa's
suggestion was cut off quickly, "THAT DAMNED SHINIGAMI IS DEAD YOU
FOOL!!"
Everyone was silenced at the sight of Light's tear
stained face. Light slowly turned away, he couldn't take the sight
of L's blank face any longer, and he cried into L's chest, his
feelings about him coming into realization for the first time…
"L…
I couldn't make it, I'm so sorry…." He gripped L tightly in
his grasp, resisting the want to sob.
"I love you…" He
whispered into L's chest… he didn't care about the stares he
gained from these words, but he meant each one…
