[[A/N Ok, I'm going to clear up a few things here because I think some wires got crossed. This is and AU/AT (Alternate Timeline). I didn't think it was important before but a reliable source tells me that it's confusing because I haven't given a back story, so here it is.

Misa has been arrested on suspicion of being the second Kira. She is released (kinda.) (I know what you're thinking; this is just like the anime/manga, yeah… WRONG.) Unlike in the anime/manga, L doesn't handcuff himself to Light and Misa doesn't have cameras in her room. L continues to question her without surveillance and without Light present and, obviously, since Misa has given up her ownership of the Death Note, she has no memories of being the second Kira. During this time, (before she gets actually released,) L and Misa start a sordid affair. Light has no idea and neither gives anything away. The end! (Well, almost.)

Final chapter, I know it's a very short but I hate writing Misa and I cannot write L.]]

'How do you do it? How is it possible for me to feel like this? Somewhere between the silly little fights, the kisses and the jokes, I started falling, and now I can't stop. I don't know what to do. And I know that you leave and go back to… him and that's when I make you think it's not hurting me.'

He looked out of the window at the newly setting sun. Each night was a battle against his rising emotions of which he never dealt with before.

This woman…

This girl…

She forced him to see what he was truly missing in life.

She forced him to realise that there was more to life then what he saw.

She forced him to take into account everything that he had ever done.

Walking slowly towards the window, he listened carefully to the howling wind. He closed both locks below the window.

He closed both blinds and turned away. It took a few moments for the realisation to slip in. He had to leave her. Sometimes solutions aren't so simple. They figured that one out the hard way. Turns out, sometimes goodbye's the only way.

He had to make her stay though. He had to know she would be alright. He had to know she was safe. And she was. Until the end.

He knew he was her's. Until his dying breath, he knew it.

And the last thing on his mind.

The final thing in his thoughts.

The last breath he would breathe

It was always her, it was all for her.

[[There you have it… please don't kill me]]
