Wow, I'm sorry it took so long. Summer had just started when I posted my last chapter. My schedule got really busy, really fast. I had a week of freedom, but I needed it to rest. I hope that you enjoy this chapter as much as I did writting it. So yeah, go read... OR ELSE :D

Disclaimer: I do... NOT... own Death Note or it's characters.


L blinked a couple of times. "I'm sorry Miss Amane, but why did you just take some of my whip cream?"

Misa sighed, "Ryuuzaki, you have the whole pie, Misa just wanted some whip cream."

"Yes, but..." L didn't understand. Usually he got all of the pie.

"Ah, Ryuuzaki, don't be so uptight!" Misa giggled. "So, as I asked before, what do we do now?"

"Well, you see I have to work..."

Misa frowned, "Oh, that's right, Misa is sorry."

"Well..." L sighed inwardly. "How about I have Watari take you shopping?" He wasn't that sociable, but Watari had told him once girls liked to shop, no matter what.

Misa smiled, "How much money do I get Ryuuzaki?"

"You can have as much as you'd like that's on this credit card." In one fast movement he had pulled it out, and handed it to Misa.

Misa stared at it. Her smile got bigger and she hugged L. "Thank you Ryuuzaki! You're so nice to Misa!!"

L winced at the touch. "You're welcome Misa. Can you please get off of me now?"

Misa giggled. "Of course." She looked toward Watari. "Can we go now?!" She was full of excitement.

Watari nodded "Hai." He stated getting up, what seemed excruciatingly slow. He started to walk towards the car. When he finally had gotten there, Misa was already inside.

--

Misa stared outside the window as they passed a couple of shopping centers. She knew which one she wanted to go to, it was a tad far from here, but Watari said it was okay. She guessed he was used to driving Ryuuzaki around.

When they arrived she jumped out of the car and told Watari she would call him when she was finished. He had nodded and she ran off to he her favorite stores.

About an hour or so later, she had three huge bags. She was used to this, she never really had made anyone carry her bags for her. She practically skipped through the mall , she wasn't paying attention to where she was going. She had just bumped into someone and dropped her bags. Great.

"Oh, I'm sorry about that." the person who bumped into her said.

Misa looked up and blue eyes met with Hazel. Her heart fluttered. He was beautiful. He had chestnut hair, and an air of confidence around him. Not to mention a hot body. "No, it was Mis- My fault, I wasn't paying attention. Sorry." She didn't want him to think she was stupid, she would need to cut the cute third person talk for a bit.

He smiled at her. He let out his hand to help her up. She took it, smiling. "Well," He said getting her bags,"I think I should do something for you, I would feel bad for causing you trouble and not making it up to you."

Misa nodded. "We can grab some lunch, I'm a tad hungry." But, wait, wasn't Watari expecting her soon? She took out her phone. "Hold on, I have to tell someone they can pick me up a little later."

--

L sighed as he was typing. Where was she? She had been shopping for three hours now, wasn't that long enough?

He continued to type. Maybe that's how long it usually took them? Women were so confusing, not that he could talk. He'd only known one for about three hours.

He went through the files. Okay, so the man had been gagged and tied to a chair when they found him. He also had three shots in his body. One in the arm and another in the leg. She must have liked watching him go through the pain seeing how those two were about an hour older then the last one, which was in the chest- L thoughts were interupted by the ringing of a cell phone.

Watari picked up the phone, "why, hello Miss Amane, do you need a ride now?"

"... Oh, I see, so you want a couple more hours? No, that's fine we don't exactly have dinner here, it's okay to go with someone." He answered. "No problem, have a fun time." The old man hung up the phone and looked towards L.

"Um, sir, you see, Miss Amane had made plans to eat with someone, she says she will be back after."

L glared "Watari, she's a suspect, we can't have her just going around. All I agreed to was the mall, at least then I knew where she was and had security cameras watching her." He sighs, motioning to the screens with people going in and out of the stores.

"Yes, but sir, she needs a life. The gentleman was taking her out as an apology."

L sighed and shook his head. "Whatever you say Watari, just as long as she comes back when she said she would."

Watari nodded and went back to doing what Watari usually did on a normal day.

--

Misa followed the young man. "I'm sorry, but I didn't catch your name." She smiled at him pleasantly.

"Hm? My name is Yagami Raito." He smiled back at her, leading her to the restaurant. "What's yours?"

Misa looked at the floor. "My name is Misa, Misa Amane." She felt her cheeks get hot, he probably knew what had happened to her. She shuddered.

"Ah, you were the model, correct?" He smiled at her sweetly. There was no tension in the air. It seemed as if he either didn't know, or ignored it, or he was a gentleman and didn't mind.

Misa sighed happily "Correct." she followed to him and walked into the restaurant when they finally got there.

They ended up a pasta place. It had nice lighting. It was a small place, it was also quiet. Not many people were here at this time. Misa thought it was perfect.

Misa looked at the Menu, "Can I please have the... Cajun Chicken Pasta?" She smiled, handingthe waitress her menu. Raito looked at it and nodded, "I'll have the same thing."

"So Misa, what exactly did you do after you stopped modeling?" Raito asked politely, attempting to make conversation.

Ah, so he just didn't know... Should I lie? "Well, you see, Misa tried to get jobs, but she failed, Misa doesn't really want to tell you what she had to resort too..., but what do you do?"

"I'm still a student, but I do help my dad who works for the Japanese Task Force. I help them solve minor cases, nothing big." He said, taking a sip of his water.

"Oh, that's very cool! What are you studying?" She smiles at him.

"I'm studying law, I want to be an officer." Raito smiles at her.

"Oh, that's wonderful! Misa bets you're going to live a wonderful life."

"I hope so." He chuckles.

She grabs his hand and smiles. "Well, are you enjoying yourself?"

"I am, are you?" He chuckles.

She smiles at him and their food come. Misa stared at it. "It looks good." She smiles.

"Yeah, it does." He says, putting his napkin on his lap.

They talked for awhile. It seemed perfect to Misa, though some part of her, for whatever reason, missed Ryuuzaki. She wanted to know more about him, when he slept, what he ate..- No, she was spending time with Raito, why think of Ryuuzaki?

--

"Well, Raito, it was nice having dinner with you." She said getting up after they were finished eating. Raito lays the money on the check.

"As of you." He says, getting up as well. "So, do you need a ride, or...?"

"No, Misa has a ride, she just needs to call and go to the parking lot."

"I can walk to the parking lot with you, if you like." He smiles. Misa stared at him He seems so perfect. His smile is so genuine. I wonder what Ryuuzaki's looks like... Misa shook her head. She can think about him later.

"That would be nice." She says grabbing his hand, and noticing how he didn't pull away. It seemed like Ryuuzaki would flinch if he had any physical contact. She took out her phone and called Watari.

"Yes, Watari, can you please pick me up? I'll be at the parking lot... Thank you." She hung up

the phone. "Shall we go?" she asked smiling, walking toward the parking lot.

--

L looked up at Watari. "Is she to be picked up now?"

"It seems so, sir. Do you want to come?" The old man asked, grabbing his coat and hat.

"Yes, that would be fine." He gets up and walks over to Watari.

They get into the car. I wonder if she had fun. Maybe she'll tell me about it on the way home... L shook his head slightly and began to think about the case. It didn't really make sense, though there was 30 percent chance it was Misa. He was keeping an eye on other girls, but she seemed the most plausible.

They got to mall and he rolled down the window, a couple who had walked out gave him strange looks, he ignored them. He wondered what was taking so long. He sighed as he watched the door open and close, and it not being Misa.

--

Misa sighed in bliss. She felt spectacular, she was clinging onto Raito, though he didn't seem to mind. She could tell how the other girls were looking at her, after all, she did have the cutest guy in the mall. She sighs in contentment.

Though, she wondered, what would it be like to be seen in public with Ryuuzaki. Would people look at her in disgust, or would they not care? Ryuuzaki stood out if anything, he was almost an eyesore. She shuddered. Note to self, don't go out with Ryuuzaki unless it's dark.

They got to the parking lot and the black car was their waiting for them. L had rolled down the window and motioned for her to come over.

Misa smiled at Raito. "It was fun, maybe we can get together some other time?"

"Sure, just give me your number."

She gets a piece of paper from her purse and write it down. "Here you go."

"Thank you." He smiles and Misa heads toward the car he looked over at L and raised an eyebrow. Suddenly, he grabbed Misa's wrist and pulled her over, he kissed her on the cheek.

Misa blinked a couple of times What the...?


Is that considered a cliffy? Well, yeah. Leave me reviews people, I reply to them! Or, I try, but I will -determined-

Oh what will our famous little detective do? That damn Raito, I seriously don't like him with Misa, but it must happen for this story to continue!
