Disclaimer: Oh my God, you guys I am so sorry for not updating! I've been very tied up and I've been very depressed lately and I've had major writers block because of it and my home computer broke down and died and, well, it's been a ride, let me just tell you that. But I'm back, I'm saving up for my laptop and chapter three is here! ^_^ (hands out cookies and cake) Again, I'm very sorry!! Well, let's get this thing started! I do not own Death Note or any of the characters. If I did…(smiles an evil smile) Warning: OOCness and a crazy chick! ^_^ Enjoy!

Isabella gasped into the towels she had buried her head into. Tears, bitter and burning, ran down her face as she gritted her teeth in pure hatred. "I could kill him, I swear I could." Her hands were shaking, so she balled them into fists to steady them. "Just grab his little chicken neck and strangle him until he's dead! And then Light would be mine, all mine and no one would be able to take him away from me! No one!" Ryuk's laugh got louder as he continued to listen to the doctor's rant.

'Humans are so much fun,' he thought as he watched Isabella scream once again into the towels. 'So ready to do whatever it takes to get what they want. Such selfish creatures.' Ryuk's laughter slowly died down until it was nothing more than a soft chuckle. 'But sometimes they need help getting what they want.' Ryuk moved closer to Isabella, so close that he was practically hovering above her in an almost protective manner, like a guardian angel sent from the pits of Hell. 'This human looks like a lot of fun. Maybe I'll help her. Help her to get what she wants. Could be fun.' Ryuk couldn't help himself, he started laughing again. 'This is going to be very interesting.'

L felt his heart skip a beat as he noticed Light waking up, despite his efforts to calm it. Though he knew that Light was going to be okay and healthy, that still didn't stop him from being just a little bit…protective. Immediately, L was at Light's side as the man's auburn eyes slowly opened. L smiled softly. "How are you feeling Raito-kun?" Light smiled back and let out a small yawn. "I'm fine L, that's the seventh time you've asked me that in the last five hours." L felt a small blush reach his face as he looked over to something apparently very interesting on the hospital floor. "Well Raito-kun. I just wanted to make sure that you are being taken care of. I mean, sometimes hospitals don't take care of their patients as well as they should and…"

L's rant was suddenly cut off by Light, who was laughing softly under his breath. L frowned at him. "What?" Light shook his head and gave L a warm smile. "It's nothing. It's just…" Light reached out with his good arm and took L's hand in his. "I guess I'm still kind of surprised that you still remember me." Light's smile slowly started to fade as he continued to speak. "When I first woke up in the hospital, I was so sure that you had forgotten what we had. I thought that…I never have you with me again, to care for me." L tightened his grip on Light's hand. "Stop talking like that Raito-kun." Light looked up to meet L's gaze and was surprised to find the detective glaring at him.

"Stop talking like that right now. There is no reason to keep thinking about what could have happened. I still remember you and you're recovering. We're both safe in the hospital and once we get to England, we'll be safe from any Kira follower who is after us." L's glare suddenly disappeared and was replaced with a loving smile. "I'm here with you Raito-kun and I love you. Stop dwelling in the fact that there was a chance that I could of forgotten about our relationship. It's not healthy and you need all your strength to get better."

Light was silence for a moment as he stared at L. How did he get so lucky? How was it possible that everything was going so well? Sure, Light was still in the hospital, but he was recovery rather fast. And besides, L was right. They were both safe, they were both together and more importantly, L remembered his feelings for him. Light's face suddenly broke out into a bright smile. "You're right L. Sorry about that. Guess I'm still a little fuzzy from my nap." L chuckled softly and looked over to examine Light's heart monitor. "Hmmm. Everything seems to be okay, but Dr. Coltrane still hasn't come back from her other patients. I wonder where she is." Light shook his head, not at all worried about the absences of his doctor. "I'm sure she'll be here soon L. She probably has other patients to take care of." This didn't erase the small frown on L's face as he reached over to the nurse call button near Light's bed. "I suppose. Still, I would feel much better if someone looked you over. I'm not a doctor, after all."

Light was silent as L spoke into the call button, a small smile still on his lips. He loved L. He loved L so much that it hurt. And though it would be slightly annoying to some, Light was moved by L's worry. He loved the fact that L was worried about him and he loved that fact that L was there every time he woke up. Light watched as L placed the call button back and sighed softly. "Sometimes I wonder if these people actually care. How can everyone be busy? Surely they must have a large staff available. If not then…" "L?" L's rant was, once again, shut off. But this time, not by a mere chuckle. No. L just could continue talking. Light's lips were currently making sure of that.

"D-Dr. Coltrane? What's wrong?" Isabella tried her best to give Scott a smile, but failed. How could she smile when her love was being brainwashed by some sick creature? How could she smile when her Light was without her?! "It's nothing Scott. It's just a family matter, that's all. So, if it's not a problem, could I maybe have the rest of the day off?" Scott bit his lip as he glanced over at his computer. "Well, I'm not sure Dr. Coltrane. I mean, you just got here and we've already had to let Dr. Childs out because of his daughter's school project and…"

Isabella felt rage fill up her entire being so fast that she actually couldn't breath. For a moment, she was so angry with the little bastard in front of her wasn't listening to her, that she almost screamed. But Isabella had more control than that. If she could smile at the thing that was controlling her Light, then she could play this little fool like a violin. So instead of screaming, Isabella just looked down at the floor with her hands clasped in front of her. "Oh. I see." Scott looked up from his computer and felt a pang in his heart.

'Poor Dr. Coltrane,' he thought. Isabella knew that Scott was staring at her. So, just to really drive the act home, she forced a tear to fall from her eyes and let in travel down her cheek so that Scott would see it. And see it he did. Immediately, Scott leaned forward in his chair, desperation printed on his face. "B-But if you want to go, that's fine Dr. Coltrane. Really!" Isabella jerked her head up in fake surprised and gave Scott a bright smile. "Really Scott? Thank you!" Scott felt a blush reach his cheeks and he looked down back at his computer. "Yeah! No problem. You just start feeling better, okay Dr. Coltrane?"

Isabella smirked as she looked down at the receptionist. 'You could never be good enough for me,' she thought. 'You'll always be just a bug under my foot. Just like Ryuzaki!' Isabella smiled again and reached out to hold Scott's hand for a moment. "Thank you Scott. I'll make it up to you, I promise." Scott couldn't speak, he was so flustered. Instead, all he could do was nod. Isabella just continued to smile as she walked away from the receptionist desk and as she walked out of the hospital doors. Only when she reached her car did she allow her rage to show through. "I'll kill him," she mumbled as she got into her car. "I'll kill him." As the car rolled out of the hospital parking lot, Isabella was unaware of the Shinigami resting on her car hood. Ryuk couldn't wait. This was going to be so much more fun than Aziz. He couldn't help it. He started to laugh.
