Chapter Four- Flawed
Light's POV
"I'm sorry I was so late" I smiled charmingly at Kiyomi. She smiled back with glossy lips and ran her fingers through her dark hair "You're here now and it's just nice to see you" I sat down beside her taking her hand and said "We need to talk"
She nodded and leaned in listening closely "Kiyomi you're a very beautiful, intelligent woman and I feel I could….use a woman of your talents on my side" I tried to coax her with my eyes and voice, she seemed to be falling, Sheesh, women are easy to manipulate….just a little more and she's mine. Kiyomi's eyes glossed over and a pretty smile curled her features "Light I-"
"I want you to be the queen of this new world, stand at my side, the wife of the god, Kira" She covered her mouth with her hand and nodded slowly as my fingers coaxed her wrist down to her lap so I could lean in and seal it with a kiss. I could hear petit footsteps coming down the hall…Kiyomi had fully served her purpose to me already but now that Sakura TV station has burned so will she….as our lips touched Right on que… The door burst open and in walked…Misa. Soaking wet…probably from the rain water…her hair was falling from a messy bun and eyeliner smeared around her brown eyes. The way her chest heaved told me she was beyond pissed.
Good now Misa will kill her….Now I just have to act surprised….this worked out just like I planned. "Misa…before you" She cut me off slapping me good and hard across the face, this time it was hard it actually stung and my head whipped to the side with her hand as a bruise formed on the side of my face. Kiyomi practically shrieked. Misa hissed "Your dead…Light Yagami"
Ryuk chuckled "Now she's gonna kill you"
Kiyomi stood up "Misa don't be so shrewd…just learn to back down when you've lost…Light is-" Misa lunged forward and I caught her by the waist, holding her against me as she fought to get away digging long black nails into my arms in a manner that was drawing blood, the petit blond shrieked "LIGHT IS USING YOU JUST LIKE HE USED ME AND I'LL KILL YOU TO YOU STUPID WHORE!" Misa's small body writhed and her legs kicked, her torso leant over and she forced her elbow into my stomach "You wanna fuck with me….watch me Light…" she swung her body around hard and brought her 7 inch heel right into my ball sack throwing me back.
"Misa your acting like an animal stop it" Kiyomi screamed getting ready to pick up her phone. I smirked "You wanna call 911? Your manwhore lover here is fucking Japan's most wanted…do it Takeda…do it" I rolled over on my side and watched Misa turn and finally walk out the door…oh my god…that didn't go as planned…since when does Misa get mad….since when does she curse…since when can she fight?
Kiyomi rushed to my side "Light…" I frowned and tried to force myself to sit up "I have to go home…I need to sleep and think some things over" was all I said as I stood on weak shaking legs. Kiyomi nodded kissed my cheek and watched as I walked down the hall toward the parking lot. Stopping in the hallway I pulled my death note from where I kept it hidden in my pants against my stomach and wrote in neat hand writing.
Takeda Kiyomi….Suicide; hangs herself in her hotel room at 3:00 am after receiving news of the Sakura TV station burning down.
"Misa" I said quietly knocking on the door of her pent house….which she recently moved back into. She ignored me. I could hear her crying softly. For some reason that sound was causing my chest to feel tight. God damn it since when do I care…why am I hear again? Ryuk was leaned against the hall way wall with his arms crossed over his chest "To apologize?" he muttered. I shook my head…I'd have to care about her….but if I don't why am I here…oh right…because I care about me…she'll kill me if I can't earn her forgiveness. I kept beating on the door obnoxiously only to earn a 'GO AWAY LIGHT' from the stubborn blond. Who knew Misa was stubborn….suddenly it's occurring to me that I don't know much about her. And maybe….just maybe…I might….just a little bit…like these traits that I kept overlooking because every time she yelled for me to go away something grew inside of me….hope…I think…hope for the fact that she would open the door.
"Misa…please" I said finally and the door opened slowly, a little chain could be seen just above her head, a second lock on the door keeping the door just ever so slightly cracked. I smiled up at her, I'd been sitting in that hallway for the past two hours and standing that entire time was getting tiring so I was sitting criss cross on the floor. She frowned down at me. "What could you possibly want?"
"There's my Misa" I tried to earn a squeal or a giggle or something that would make her resemble the dumb blond I know so well. She rolled her eyes "Think again" She moved to close the door but I jumped up and caught her hand by reaching my arm through the crack between the door and it's frame "Let me in….I want to talk to you"
She stared at me a long time, or at least it felt like a long time before she undid the second lock and opened the door letting me inside. I felt slightly accomplished. She walked across the living room into the kitchen, she was clad in tight red skinny jeans and a black form fitting sweater, her tiny feet were bare but her toenails were painted black and white. Her hips swayed, she was delicate and soft looking….attractive….Misa is kind of attractive…guess I didn't notice that before.
She stopped at the stove, I had no idea what she was cooking but it smelled better then burnt toast and I was getting hungry. Still I wanted her to turn and look at me and smile like she used to every morning. Now I was thinking about it I had no clue why I thought that plan was going to work out.
"You had something you wanted to say?" Misa asked bluntly.
I could lie to her….but what to say wait no…the truth works in this situation….yeah I can tell her the truth….why dose that seem so odd to me….in my head I imagined Ryuk saying 'Because you're always lying' "Oh right….well Misa…It wasn't like it seemed, I wanted you to kill Kiyomi…I thought you would but obviously I upset you and I'm sorry…it wasn't supposed to be that way….it was…well you know"
She turned to me putting her hands on her hips "Say it"
"Say what?" I was confused.
"Say your plan was flawed" She sat down on the counter top beside the stove. Wrong? Flawed? Not in my vocabulary. I made a mistake? Impossible….but…I did…no gods don't make mistakes…it's nature when god makes a mistake…Misa made a mistake in her reaction Misa is wrong…I walked over to her and placed my hands on her hips ready to convince her that she made a mistake and should be the one apologizing….ready to romance her back into my bed…."Misa" I said slowly as ours eyes met.
When I looked into her eyes….when I saw that pain and confusion, the skin around them red from excessive the scrubbing away of makeup I felt my chest tighten up again and I knew immediately who was flawed….and for once it wasn't the pretty little doll I so easily tainted with my dirty hands.
