Hello Mi is back. With the next installment as promised. xD
Thanks to Sashocirrione to reviews. HUGGIES!!!

So this is dedicated to Sashocirrione!

Ready or not, here it comes: THE DECISION – L LAWLIET


Greed POV

Light really is interesting. Greed thought. He had learnt more than enough curses to last him for a good 20 years or so. But even to Greed the sadist, it was getting boring.

Light had been repeating several ideas, thinking, pounding, reasoning etc. For all that, Greed was bored. He wanted action. ACTION NOW! Repetition was not interesting to Greed.

'Light," Greed said as he approached. "I don't know what you're stressing out about." Light turned to him and fired him a get-away-you-******* look. 'Ooi, I'm helping you kay? Chill. This situation is as simple as ABC." Greed smiled as he floated directly in front of Light's eyes.

"really simple. Either you die or L dies." A smirk.


Light POV.

Damn Greed for saying it. Light was a genius. Of course he knew that. But he didn't want to die, neither Ryuzaki. He had been trying to avoid that and that's why he's stressed. Moron. Light thought to Greed.

But despite the strong front, Light was tired and hurt. He knew it but hearing it 'aloud' from someone else really cause the fact to sink in hard.

Ryuzaki or me?

Light cringed at that thought.

Kira: OF COURSE ryuzaki. Get rid of him and voila, you are the god of the new world.

Light: But… Ryuzaki is my friend and… (I … love him) silently added

Kira: Who's your friend? And who's your love? Love is superficial. Get over it. And Ryuzaki is G-U-Y. Which part of GUY do you not understand. And he is your E-N-E-M-Y! Not your friend.

Light: ….

Kira: And do you really think he'll be your friend after he officially concludes you are Kira? Duh no. So just kill Ryuzaki.

Light: (protest) But how? Grab a knife and stab him and get myself in jail?

Kira: Where did your brains go? Death note of course.

Light: (feeble protest) but I don't know his name….

Kira: Idiot. You are a genius, for goodness sake. What's with this cowardice?

Light: but.. but…

"L Lawliet." Came a haughty whisper. Light froze in mid breath, eyes opened wide in shock. Turning pale and weak he turned to Greed, the source of the whisper.

"That's L's real name." Greed smiled, devilishly. He pointed to his Shinigami's eyes for prove.

Kira: See. Just kill him now. So easy.

Light lost his last reason for not killing Ryuzaki. L Lawliet, he muttered softly, inaudibly. Killing L is possible. The thought passed through every nerve of his body sending a shiver and feeling of anticipation down his spine. So maybe, it is best to kill L now. After all, he won't be my friend after he finds out I'm Kira. And this love of mine is superficial and unrequited anyway …

A world without L. To kill or not to kill?


'Ryuzaki, I need the toilet." Light said weakly, practically on the verge of insanity. Forget it, I'll just be Kira, trying to Light and Kira is going to kill me. Light concluded. Ryuzaki looked at Light, surveying his sincerity.

A queasy feeling rose up in Light as he waited as though for his verdict. "Alright." Ryuzaki said after a good 10 seconds.

Light and Ryuzaki then headed to the washroom. "2 mins." Ryuzaki said. "I'll be on the other side of this cubical door." Ryuzaki said as Light headed inside.

Kira: Ha! 2 mins is more than enough. Today you'll be wiped off the page.

Light went in and locked it. Feeling nauseous all of a sudden, he sat down on the toilet seat. Shakily, he reached out for his watch. Pressing a hidden lever, a piece of white paper came into view. Greed snickered. A piece of death note.

Light's breath became heavier. Using the small hidden needle, he pricked his thumb and began to write.

L

He took deep breath. A throbbing feeling of pain and ambition waged war within him.

L La

He continued to write. His hand shaking so much at the 'a' almost became an 'o'. Beads of perspiration formed on his forehead.

L Law

Unbearable feelings of guilt, sorrow and pure agony filled his body. Tears were pricking his eyes. Light blinked to keep them in.

L Lawli

A single tear rolled down his cheek. Knowing that in 2 more letters and 30 seconds, L, the first person ever to rival his intelligence is going to die. Vanish from the world.

L Lawlie

1 more letter. Memories of their first meeting, the lame fights, the smiles and teasing and whole journey with Ryuzaki until now, the urge to kiss Ryuzaki in the cafeteria. "You're in love with L." Greed's words.

Light paused. He can't write anymore. That's right. L, Ryuzaki was and is his first love. Even if by saving L means killing himself, fine. Whatever. Dropping to his knees, Light buried his face in his hands as tears streamed down.

Forget it. He didn't care anyway. He would rather die than live in a world without Ryuzaki. A world even with 'god' status doesn't mean a single thing without Ryuzaki. It would mean nothing…. Nothing…


Light woke up in his bed, or rather Ryuzaki's bed, since it wouldn't be his in a few hours time. He blinked trying to adjust to the light in the room. The first time he registered was the familiar crouched person beside him. "L" He murmured. Today might just the be the last day he could call him 'L'.

"Light – kun is finally awake." Ryuzaki said, Light smiled inwardly, at the words 'Light-kun'. How sweet, Light realized, to be called that by Ryuzaki. A smile formed on Light's lips. A true smile which Light hasn't smiled for a good few years.

"What happened?" Light asked finally. "Light –kun fainted in the toilet." Ryuzaki, or rather L said. Light noticed his wristwatch was gone. So L probably knows everything, Light thought. He looked at L. L Lawliet. Least he dies knowing his lover's real name.

Light waited for L to start accusing or something. But L simply waited. So L-like, waiting for me to say it Light thought.

"L, I have a favour to ask." Light began. L looked at him, still emotionless. "please…" Light added when L did not respond.

"depends on what Light-kun asks." L replied finally in a sigh. Light smiled, the second genuine smiles in ages.

"call me 'Light-kun' till the end." A simple favour. At the brink of death, to Light, everything is suddenly to clear. What is important and what is not. In life, Light realized, it is these simple things that makes life really wonderful.
