Chapter 2 : What A Trip!
At the airport we gave the Air assistant our tickets, she ripped a
piece off, gave them back then we got on the plane. She also stamped
our transports. We got on the plane, walked back to seats 25a and
16a. We packed our luggage on the luggage holder above the seats. My
mom let me have the window seat. Oh boy, I get to watch my life fly
away.
I still remember the first time I met Ryuzaki. It was the
third time I took Matsuda to work. At first, I was kind of wierded
out by him. Sitting in that odd position, eating all that junk food.
I could'nt understand how he was so skinny. The whole time I was
there, all he did was stare at me, I felt really akward. But, One
other thing I noticed about him, He was cute. I remember Matsuda
introducing us after he introduced me to everyone else, ''Hey,
Ryuzaki! This is my cousin, Elizabeth. She's going to bring me here
often" Ryuzaki replied, "Is that so? Hello Elizabeth, I am
Ryuzaki, obviously," He smiled. That was when I first got a
crush on him. I knew he was intelligent, it was obvious. I went in
the next few times when I took Matsuda to work. Then, Ryuzaki decided
to ask me something, "Elizabeth, would you like to join me, in
desert tonight? Here, at seven?" Of chorse, I replied, "Yes.
I would like that." The rest was history. We loved eachother
more each day, as we learned more about eachother. 'Ryuzaki,' I
thought to myself, 'I love you. And I miss you so much.' The worst
part about leaving Ryuzaki wasn't so much not being able to see him
anymore. But I wouldn't be able to call him neither. Someone might
have caught on. But I was allowed to call Matsuda and check up on
things, Matsuda worked as Ryuzaki and my pigeon. Hah. And the best
part, Matsuda loved how Ryuzaki and I were in love, so he didn't mind
at all. About an hour went byon the flight, and I got a phone call.
It was from Matsuda, I was quick to answer. "Hello! Matsuda! How
is everything?" "Hello, Elizabeth," It was Ryuzaki! I
had to make sure I didn't say anything that made my mom start to
guess anything, "I miss you so much," I love my cousin,
that should be fine. "I miss you too! I hope this Kira case is
over soon," I know what that means. It was code, saying that he
has Light in a knot. "So do I," "Elizabeth, I love you
so much," I wanted to say 'I love you too, and soon we'll be
together again,' But my mother made that impossible, "So do I,"
He understood compleately. I went on, "So, Matsuda, How's
everything going?"Ryuzaki replied, "It's all go-" He
was interupted by a screaming, "I've got to go I love you,"
Then All Iheard was a click of thephone. What was I supposed to
think?I kept telling myself 'Ryuzaki's fine, It was just some kind of
accident,he's fine. That wasn't a gun shot.' This didn't help me at
all. Infact, it made things worse, Itput ideas in my head that
Ryuzaki was shot. my phone rang again,it was Ryuzaki from
Matsudasphone again, "Elizabeth! It's okay, please don't get
anyideas in your head that I got shot," Wow, I almost forgot how
smart he was, "Oh," I laughed, "What happened then?"
He replied, "Oh nothing, Matsuda was just watchingthe news,
Checking forthe Kira invetigation. Guess what,Misa is in ,
Misa, The second Kira, I knew it, Light isKira, "Wow, Soyou
pretty muchhave this?""No, You know I can't say very much
on here," Oh, I almost forgot, what if the phone is bugged? "Oh,
Sorry," "Don't get the wrong idea, but I have to go for
now. I love you, and call you later," "Me too, Talk to you
later," I replied. I missed Ryuzaki so much. I was so glad that
he thought of using Matsuda's phone instead of not talking at all. I
loved hearing his voice.
It's been three hours on this flight, we
still had 4 hours to go until we land in America. I just watched the
clouds go by as Ryuzaki's words went through my mind, 'This isn't
goodbye...' On that note, I fell asleep. I had a wonderful dream. It
was about Ryuzaki catching Light and Misa, Then comming to Ohio to
marry me. That was the best dream I could have had. By the time my
mom woke me up, We have landed. I couldn't believe how long I'd been
asleep. We got off the plane, we were in California, I don't know
what city. I didn't really care. This really sucked for me. It was
like a wake-up call, saying, this all is really happening. I wanted
to cry. I never wanted to leave, but I had no other choice. I still
couldn't get Ryuzaki out of my mind."We have to wait an hour and
a half until our last flight, what do you want to do?" My mom
asked me. "I don't really care." I was honest. "Well,
you must be hungry, you didn't eat the entire flight here," I
can't eat right now, I'm too upset, "Well, I'm not. You can eat
if you want to, but I'm not hungry," I was pretty harsh about
that, but Oh well. "You'll have to eat sometime," She was
getting annoying. "I WILL, mom! Get off my back!" I
responded. "Fine, fine. Whatever, I'm eating at Wendy's. We
havn't had Wendy's in forever!"She remembered that I used to
love Wendy's."Okay, whatever. I don't care." She was really
getting on my nerves. The rest our time in California was silent. I
didn't want to talk, and she could see that. Took her long enough.
She ate like she was starving. She had one of them new baconater
meals and a Coke. She was done in two minutes. After she was done
eating, we went to the waiting room for our flight and sat. I just
listened to my MP3 player. I was listening to Still Doll by Kanon
Wakeshima. That song was one of my favorites. After that song was
over, I listened to What's up People? by Maximum the Hormone. That
was another one of my favorites. I had a very wide range of music
that I liked. While I listened to music, my mom played Mario Bros on
her Nintendo DS. She was addicted. Before I knew it they called our
flight ready. We repeated our plane routine, for the last time. This
flight would only take 3 hours. I got the window seat again. Lucky
me. I fell asleep on the flight again. I was waken up this time, by
my phone. It startled me, It was Ryuzaki again! "Hello," My
voice was still scratchy from sleeping. "Oh, Elizabeth, I'm
sorry for waking you," Ryuzaki was being so sweet. "Oh no,
it's no problem really," I got up as if I were going to the
bathroom, so I could actually talk to him this time. I can'tbelieve I
didn't think of it the first time, "I love hearing your voice,"
I said once I knew I was out of my mom's hearing range. "I love
hearing yours too," He made me blush. "So, What's up,
Ryuzaki?" "Oh, nothing, really. The case is going
wonderful. We have light in custody now, also. But he's up to
something, because he requested it." "Oh, Ryuzaki, that's
awesome!" "Not nessesarily, All he's trying to do is clear
his name. I'm sure he's up to something," He said it so
seriously. "Be careful, Ryuzaki." "I will, Ipromise."
"So, how is Misa doing?" I had to know, she was my best
friend. " fell asleep, then when she woke up, she began
calling us stalkers. And she won'tbelieve uswhen we tell her who we
truley are. It's like she don't remember anything" "Wow,
that is wierd. I wonder whatthat's all about.""I don't
know, Somehow, I believe it'sLight's doing, I just havn't compleately
figured it out yet." "I bet it is.""Elizabeth, I
love you so much, but unfortunately I'vegot to go. I'll talk to you
later," I could tell by his tone, he really didn't want to get
off the phone. "Okay, I love you Ryuzaki, Bye," We both
hung up at the same time and I went back to my seat on the
've already been riding the plane fortwo and ahalf hours, We
were inIllinois. Scince we only had a half an hour left, I tryed my
hardest to stay awake. It worked. Barley. I still havn't ate
anything, and I was actually begining to get hungry. I ate my bag of
peanuts and then I felt fine. My mom was asleep, so I didn't want to
bother her. I just listened to my MP3Player. This time I first
listened to Vanilla by Gackt. Then I remembered, one time, Ryuzaki
and I went to one of his concerts. It was amazing! We had so much
fun. Remembering this made me want to cry...I held back though. I
guess we made it to Columbus, I had to wake my mom up. "Mom!
Wake up, We're in Ohio now," I shook her some to get her to wake
up, it worked, "We are? Where at?" that was a stupid
question, "Columbus, Where we planned." "Oh, yeah. I
forgot." "Who'd a though?" I said it sarcastically and
faked a laugh so she wouldn't get affended. We got off the plane and
entered the airport.
