It seemed like hours before one of the two spoke again. Jealous was leaning on Rem's chest, and Rem leaning her head gently against Jealous's. Both of there minds were fluttering and thinking about the current situation and how to deal with it. Jealous was thinking more along the lines of how he would tell Rem, his "Guardian Angel", how he has felt about her all these long years. While Rem's mind continued to figure out how to tell Jealous that she just wanted to wait this whole thing out…but how could she say that to him…she would never admit it but she didn't have the heart to, but something was telling her that she really did want to be with Jealous too.
"Um…Rem, I have something I would like to show you… I don't need an answer right away from you, but it's something I think you should know…" Jealous mumbled, his words stumbling upon his own breath. Slowly he tugged on Rem's arms, signaling he wanted to be let go of. Rem, of course, had no problem letting the smaller shinigami go as she let him slide back to the harden ground. Quickly he pranced over to the collarbone he was hiding behind earlier. He disappeared for a few second before he reappeared on the other side of the collarbone, and the other side of Rem, with a small black box in one hand an a small strip of paper in the other. He carefully handed the tiny strip to Rem, "Here Rem." His little voice was shaking more than before. Rem carefully took the paper and quietly read the contents to herself.
"Dear Death God To Who This May Concern: As you know our numbers are dwindling and the creation of the new Death Gods and Goddess is almost at a stand-by. I am issuing the removal of rule XXXVII until this problem is solved. I have issued only the Gods with a pair of silver rings with matching numbers. With this you may claim your mate. Any successful pairs may keep the ability to breed and no longer have to worry about Death Notes, they will now be Breeders. Also I have contained you into areas; this is to monitor the pairs. Thank you for your cooperation, and remember, please do not take the first Goddess you see, take the time to woo her and prove you're worth her, because once your Breeders you'll never be apart." Rem could not believe what she had just read, this really was happening. She glanced over at Jealous, who was nervously glancing between her face and his feet; he was blushing and holding on to the box as tight as he could. That's when Rem noticed something she didn't see before, a small little silvering on Jealous's left hand, she only had to guess that the matching ring was in the black box he had a grip on.
"So is that the…the other ring? Jealous, you are really serious about this…" Her voice trailed off as she looked down at her own feet to hide her face behind a bit of her hair. What was she to do? Could she really be considering spending the rest of her life with Jealous? He's small, shy, quiet, and cute…wait a minute…cute? Rem couldn't believe that thought ran through her head. She stared harder and harder at her feet and the ground around them, searching for some sort of answer.
"So is that…is that…a no? I'm sorry; I should have never showed you this. Please forgive me Rem." Jealous's voice came out in a trembling mess as he carefully walked closer to his "Guardian Angel." Carefully he set his free hand upon Rem's pale leg, yanking her from her panicked thoughts.
Rem whirled her head around to face Jealous's trembling face. She could see a small tear forming in his one golden eye. Jealous's eye was golden, just like her eyes, only much kinder and more emotional. Rem hated herself right then, how could she make such a loving face cry? Without a second though, she reached down and pulled the shaking shinigami into her arms and gave him the biggest hug she could possible do. Jealous buried himself against her and held on tight, Rem just continued to hold and cradle him. They stayed like that for a while before a deep, raspy voice pulled them back down to reality.
"Hey Rem, did expect you to react to this whole situation this way. The last thing I ever expected you to do was to run to Jealous" The voice teased with a hyuk. Rem lifted her head up slowly towards the all too familiar voice, it was Ryuk.
"What do you want now?" Jealous piped up, he shoved out of Rem's arms and stormed off to yell at Ryuk. Rem had never seen him act this way, it was kind of cute…there it was again, the cute factor.
"Oh just wanted to see where my Apple had gone. Why? Do you really think she ran to you after hearing the news, the news that I went into the Human Realm to tell her?"
"Shut up! Who cares if Rem didn't run to me! She's here with me now!"
"Oh is your ring on her finger already? I didn't think so. So how about we let her decide who she will be with." Ryuk taunted as both he and Jealous turned to face the female in question. Rem had never been so embarrassed and confused in her whole life, what was she to do now? Stay with Jealous, or run off with Ryuk? Either way she would be hurting the other one.
