It's been two months since Misa left Light and they have been the best two months in her life. She doesn't remember being this happy since her parents have been murdered. No longer does she wait up long hours of the night for a man that never comes home. No longer does she feel worthless, used, and broken like she did all the time with Light. No she was finally truly happy and it was all because of Matt. Going to that club that night had been the best decision of her life.
Not to mention her career has skyrocketed. Thanks to the film she shot over in California she was now slowly gaining popularity over in America as well. She was even headlining the Pop Music Awards! Yeah Misa was incredibly happy and it was showing.
Today she was going into NHN for a meeting about the upcoming show preparations. She was slightly dreading it since Takada was Kira's new spokeswoman and she was positive she was going to be stuck with stupid Kira questions. She already knew what they would say. It was always the same with those stupid companies. They always treated her like she was fucking retarded. That was kind of of her fault since she always acted that way but god sometimes it really pissed her off when they treated her like that. Which is why she was bringing Matt with her, to make sure she controlled herself.
"Misa, tell me again why I have to sit through another one of these boring meetings." Matt complains leaning his head against her shoulder as they approached the building.
"Because if you don't I'm not having sex with you tonight."
"So cruel."
"I love you Mattykins." She coos wrapping her arm around his waist.
"I love you too my little psycho blond." He laughs replacing his head with his arm.
They shared a quick kiss before walking through the door. About an hour later they walked out of the meeting room with smiles on their faces. Throughout the whole meeting Matt made faces and whispered things under his breath that only she could hear. She about broke a rib trying to contain her laughter. Now that it was over she let it all out. Laughing uncontrollably the two made their way haphazardly through the halls.
Their fun was ruined however when they turned the corner and ran smack dab into Takada and Light. The controlled look on his face made it obvious to Misa that he didn't particularly like being where he was but had to do it for "business". She almost pitied the poor guy, he knew nothing but work, and it saddened her. Though he had hurt her terribly she still loves him. Not the way she used to but you don't just stop caring for someone who was such a big part of your life for so long, hell he was her life then.
"Well this is awkward." Matt whispers in her ear causing her to giggle.
Light sends the couple a glare. Misa averts her gaze too frightened to look him in the eyes. She remembers all too well the power he has in them. Matt sensed her unease and tightened his grip around her waist. He then picked her up and spun her around before running off back in the direction they just came. Misa couldn't help but let out a loud squeal of delight as they rushed through the hall. However her fun was cut short when Matt suddenly stopped.
"I honestly can't believe you dated that douchebag." Matt says leaning to rest up against the wall pulling out a cigarette. He didn't lite it, he just sucked on it, an odd habit of his. It was something he did if he couldn't actually smoke and felt nervous.
"Well love quite a few of my 'friends' honestly can't believe I'm with you."
"That's because most of your 'friends' are superficial whores." He retorts.
"That's true."
He laughed, "I fucking love you."
"I love you too. Now time to go I want out of this place."
As they made their way to the exit they once again ran into Light. He was standing in front of the door talking on his cellphone. The look on his face was aggravated and he was pacing furiously. Misa guessed poor Matsuda was on the other end; she could tell by Light's actions, he always did that when Matsuda called about something stupid.
"What the fuck is this guy following us or something?"
"Let's just pretend he's not there and walk out." Misa suggests half-heartedly.
"That would be fine except Mr. Psycho is blocking the door."
"Don't call him that!"
Matt gave her a disbelieving look but otherwise ignored her attitude. Instead he simply took her hand in his own and made his way to the door pulling her along with him. Her protest fell upon deaf ears. Matt completely ignored her as he dragged her behind him. Light looked up at the commotion coming his way. He stared dumbfounded at the approaching couple shocked still.
"Out of the way pretty boy!" Matt shouted.
"Matt stop being an asshole! I work here you know!"
"But you love it when I'm an asshole so it's okay." He laughs.
"That's not the point asshole you're making me look bad."
"I love you too babe." He reply's sarcastically.
"Oh don't even start!"
Light smiled at the bickering couple once he got over his shock. He was glad to see that Misa had found someone that truly cared about her. Not that he would admit it but he felt horrible about the way things ended between them and to be honest he missed the girl. She annoyed him to no end and there were times he truly wanted to kill her but he missed her obedience and just having someone love him. In a way he was jealous of the redhead currently latched on to her hand, he wanted that to be his own. Upon realizing he seriously just thought that Light frowned.
Misa feeling his gaze on her she quieted and just stared at him leaving Matt to stand there awkwardly. After a long pause she broke down and spoke, "Light?"
Hearing his name Light broke out of his trance. He gave her a sad smile which worried her more. She's never seen him act like that before. The look on his face unnerved her. She could feel herself feeling guilty about not being with him. He looked like he needed her with him. A warm feeling spread through her body as she thought of how miserable he must be without her. It lead to thought of them getting back together and finally being happy. Those thoughts however were quickly cast aside, she knew Light well enough to know that he would never truly change. Besides she loved Matt and was going to spend the rest of her shortened life with him, not Light.
"So are you just going to stare at me or are you going to say something?"
Light shook his head to clear it, "Oh sorry I just," he paused, "It's good to see you again Misa."
"Yeah you too."
They both awkwardly went in for a hug. Misa pulled away first feeling weird being in his arms again. That and she could feel the daggers Matt was shooting into her back. Light wasn't having it though and quickly pulled her closer to him.
"I miss you." He whispered.
"No you miss the ideal of me."
"Heh that may be true." He agrees finally letting her go.
"Well uh nice seeing you Light, bye."
"Bye." He replies adding fake sadness to his voice. Before turning away from her he made sure to conjure a few fake tears as well.
Misa couldn't tell the difference though and felt guilty. She knew he couldn't live without her. Matt however could and shot Light a death glare before taking Misa by the arm and dragging her out the door. Light just smirked, Misa would be his again before the end of the month.
