A/N Disclaimer is in the first chapter.
First thing I felt upon awaking was pain. Pain everywhere. Haven't feel it in awhile. Then I heard beeping. Where am I? How did I get here? Who am I? Why can't I open my eyes? Or move?!
After some effort my eyes finally open. I look around, but still can't move my head. Its white, I'm in a room. Monitors? Oh, I'm in a hospital. Why am I in the hospital? Am I ill? Not likely... This is more of a reanimation room. Reanimation? Coma? Death?
A sudden jolt of pain in the upper back and then a flash of light in front of my eyes, my moment amnesia ends. Hospital?! How can I be in the hospital? We don't have hospitals! Shinigami don't need them! I'm on Earth? But how this can be a punishment?
I turn my head to look at the monitors. I'm alive. My heart is beating! But how is this possible? I groan and try to sit up. Everything hurts.
I hear the door open and look over at it. A nurse walked in.
"Good to see you awake. Such a tragedy to get into a catastrophe on the same day with your twin brother. He had woke up too, in the next room, but I can't allow either of you to stand up now, so please la-"
I didn't hear her after that. Twin brother? I don't have a twin, nor do I have a brother in a first place. She walks over and I let her press me back down on the bed. Twin...? L?! He is here too?! What kind of punishment is this?!
I sit up suddenly.
"I need to see my brother. "
"But you are still weak and-"
"I need to."
I repeat myself. She sighs.
"I can't let you stand up."
I groan quietly and start taking the wires taped to my arms off. Nurse gasps and tries to stop me. Well I just returned back to live and I'm not going to wait any longer! I get off the bed. Dizziness... It is gone quickly through. I hear her mumbling something like 'Even act same.' as I go to the door.
"On the left."
Oh, so she decided to help, not to interfere, good. I push the door open without knocking and freeze in the doorframe. Smile spreads across my lips without my noticing.
L stands across from the door, leaning against the windowsill. Some file is in his hands. He is already in the white shirt and soft looking white pants. Apparently he woke up yesterday, because I still was in a white long shirt without sleeves which was more of a dress actually. He looked a lot more fragile then I had remembered him, but he was alive...
I stumble forwards him, and he looks up. The look that he gave me made me worry a bit, like he has no idea who I am. But I ignore that, he probably is just startled by how I can be here, and doesn't know how to react. I walk to him quickly and hug tightly. Breathing in scent which I thought I never will be able to smell again. It mixed with the medicaments through.
"I missed you so much."
I whisper into his chest. His lack of reaction started to really worry me. But what he said next hit me right in the heart.
"Who are you?"
I freeze. What? What did he just ask? I had to have hearing problems, he just couldn't ask that. No. No, no, no. I look up at him, hoping he will finally react. Hug me back and say how he missed me too, maybe even kiss, he always didn't care for morals.
"Who are you?"
He repeats it. Firm and cold, unemotional. He doesn't recognize me? But how is that possible? Why did he ask that? My eyes started to water. No, I can't cry. I promised I won't cry in front of him. But.. he doesn't remember... I move away from him slowly. Not wanting to let go, feeling he won't let me hug him again. But at least he didn't shove me away at the very moment I hugged him.
"Y-you... You don't remember...?"
I feel like a moment will past and I will fall, my legs will give up. Nurse didn't say anything about amnesia, but how? How could he forget me?! I'm about to actually cry if he will answer now.
"I should? What should I remember?"
He sounds monotone, but there is a little hint of interest, no one would sense it, but I know him to well to skip over it. But his words cut to deep and I fall on my knees. Doesn't remember, doesn't remember, doesn't remember. It plays in my head over and over. Is this... oh... so thats what my punishment is. How cruel. I hang my head and blink away the tears.
"Me.. You don't remember me at all?"
I realize that my voice shakes and its harder to hold a cry in, but its to late.
"I see you for the first time, and don't understand why you are getting upset because of that."
Interest, confusion, masked by his usual monotone. I would love to hear that monotone, only if.. he wasn't speaking of that. I start sobbing. My happiness of seeing him again is gone. I shudder when someones hand lays on my shoulder.. no, not someones its L. And the sadness lightens up a bit, maybe his memory of me was erased, but the feelings are still there, I just need to find them and unlock again. But he feels it, and his eyes are saying that. Lifeless looking for someone, but full of that life for me.
"How do I call you?"
"B."
A/N Yes, I'm aware of the shortens of this chapter. But I'm trying to make it longer. I'm aware of the OOC acting as well. But I still would like to know what you think.
