"What If you could?" Light whispered, crazed eye's staring into my soul. I let a deep sigh out, pushing Light away and roll my eyes, as I ignore the demons laughter. He gave me a frown and I pointed to the door of his room, getting up to open it, as it revealed his mother about to come in.
"Oh! Dear, I've brought you your snacks. Would you like me to call your mother, if you'd like to stay over? Little Deiji- Chan has already made herself comfortable, haha" She asked. I thank her and sheepishly apologized for the inconvenience, which she just patted my head.
"Your family Kobi-Chan! Your always welcome" She cooed and left the tray of snacks with me, before leaving.
"Family?" I mumbled in awe and Light let out a chuckle. His honey gaze shining from the sunset, coming in from the window of his room, as he grabbed the tray out of my grasp.
"Sorry for scaring you there" He said with a smile, but something about it seemed fake.
"Light, are you okay?" I asked and he flinched.
"Why do you ask?" He said, setting the tray on his desk. I walked over to him and take an apple as He grabbed a bag of chips on the tray. I shrugged and bite into the sweet fruit, knowing that Light hated it when he didn't get a straight answer.
"Kobi..." He said in a warning tone, but I only smirked back at him.
I and light knew each other very well, with all the play dates our parents set up for us, how could we not? But, something seemed off with him since they last met.
"You just, seem off light" I confessed, slouching in his chair. He gave me a raised eyebrow, giving me his oh to familiar "oh-really- look".
"So, what about ya, take over the world yet with that brain of yours?" I fire back and scratches his neck, looking at the floor.
"I guess, a little bit at a time though..."
"You're still nuts as always I see" I sigh and he glares at me. "So are you" he said.
"Ya got that right!" I tease, giggling.
The demon had long since sat on Lights desk, just staring at us, as I question why he was near light at all. They never form attachments to humans, thinking we're boring creatures and all. unless...
"Light, think fast!" I yell, throwing my apple at him. But, he's not fast and it hits him square in the face. "Kobi, what the hell!" He screamed and I frown. "Your so slo-" I start to say and freeze.
"Black butler reference!" I yell, pointing a finger at him and he face-palmed. "Seriously Kobi!" He yelled and I pouted.
"What?" He only glared at me while the demon laughed it's ass off behind us.
"Do you live just to annoy me?" He said, sighing and I smirk. "What next? You'll go out posting my darkest secrets on the net!" He mumbles.
"Well no, but that can be arranged" I tease and he groans. "So, where am I going to sleep?"
Light frowns, likely thinking.
"Hey, Light! why not let her sleep with you?" The demon asked, giggling like a creep. Light pretended to yawn, stretching out his arm in a rocket motion, as he punched the demon that hovered above him, into the ceiling.
"You can sleep on the couch down stairs, it pulls out" He recommended with that fake smile and I returned it.
(One Day Later)
"Kobi-Chan!" A voice yelled down the hallway. I was making my way to the office to deliver a box of spices to ease illnesses, when I was called. Risuna ran up to me in a hurry. Her long black hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to her face as her body heaved over in exhaustion. She looked to have ran all the way across campus.
"What's happened?" I asked her in worry. Risuna never ran for anything, even if a teacher asked her too, as she had serious asthma, so this was a first. She tried to tell me, but I could only make out a few words, as she coughed and choked on gasping for air.
"Amai-Chan has... she's not breathing... heart-" And that's all I needed to know before I demanded her to tell me where Amai, who was also our close friend, was.
" get to the nurse's office" I told her and left in a hurry, clutching the box in my hand. Amai was in the schools gymnasium when it happened, I ran as fast as I could. But, when I got there, no one was helping the poor girl. They all just stared as she crawled towards them, chocking out silent helps.
"Amai!" I scream, running to her side, as I trampled threw everyone to get to her. She gave me a panicked look as I knelt down beside her.
"It will be okay, Amai. Calm down and breath for me, in and out now" I soothed her and she listened to me, following my actions, as I went to work. I was furious with everyone watching, they all knew and were taught for emergencies like me, this place was for firkin to be medics, and yet no one but me was helping her.
"All of you get lost!" I screamed at them and they backed away in shock at my fury. I was known to be mild and a chill person, always happy to help and understand. But at this moment my friend was about to die and I couldn't give a shit about anyone except Amai.
"Someone do something useful and call Nine one one!" I shout and one girl grabs her phone from her pocket in a hurry. 'Good' I thought, watching them do as I said.
I snapped back to my friend, who was scared and crying. It saddened my heart to see anyone in pain, may it be a criminal or elderly. No one should feel pain.
"Cayenne pepper!" I shouted out, remembering the box that was now sat beside us, and everyone looked at each other.
I quickly unlocked the box and looked through every flask, holding it's had the spice. It had to be in here!
"You think it was Kira?"
"It can't be! Amai wouldn't hurt a fly, right?" Voices of people whispered to each other around me as I shook in anger.
I prayed for help and the box tipped over, letting a flask roll out of it. I grabbed the glass in my hand, studying if it was what I needed, and opened Amai's mouth wide. I place the cayenne under her tongue, a few drops at a time. After, a few bone chilling seconds, she had stopped painting in pain and became steady for the time being. But, she had also gone unconscious.
"Kobi-Sama, the ambulance has arrived!" A girl called out and I sighed in relief, finally!
I yelled for the stronger male students to help carry her to the ambulance, but a few others felt other wise...
"Kira wouldn't want us to help her, she was chosen!" A snotty girl yelled out as others agreed and I punched her in the face.
"You all are sick!" I yelled.
Who needs their help, I pulled her onto my back and piggy backed her to the medics myself. She was smaller then me so it wasn't too hard.
"Take her!" I cried out and the medics ahead noticed me, before darting over to help.
"She'll be okay now, dear. Why don't you go-"
"No, I'm coming" I said and there was no buts in my tone. They let me in with Amai and I held on to her hand as the medics helped her. I prayed for my friend to make it, she didn't deserve to die! Suddenly the whole ambulance was wrapped in a bright light as my hands, started to glow green. But in a snap everything stopped.
"Her breathing, blood levels, and heart rate is stable" a shocked medic said.
The chief medic looked towards me in awe and snapped his gaze to my friend, checking her.
"It's impossible! How did you do it?" He asked, looking up at me and I frowned in worry.
"Do what, is Amai okay?" I asked and the medics looked at each other.
"Dear, she's been cured. You some how stopped the heart attack!" The chief exclaimed and I paled.
'No way' I thought in horror, shaking as I looked down at my hands. The voice of that demon repeated in my head.
"A strange one you are, such a long life span for only a human, what are you?" It's voice had rang in my ear as I had tried to sleep last night.
"W-what am I, I'm only a human... right?" I whispered to myself in fear as the ambulance suddenly felt cold. A bad omen, the nurses were to busy celebrating in awe to notice it. But, I did and shivered. 'Only a human…'
