Chapter 6: Memories Gone
Three hours later
Naoki's POV
I awoke slowly to find Ryuzaki staring at me blankly with a hint of concern hidden in his eyes.
"R-Ryuzaki?" I groaned as I sat up slowly, only to discover that I had been lying in a hospital bed with Ryuzaki and Light sitting either side of me.
"Glad to see that you've rejoined us in the land of the living. I was beginning to get worried."
Ryuzaki explained as he readjusted himself in his chair.
"Yeah, you gave me a scare when you just passed out like that. I thought you were going to die." I heard Light say from my left. I looked at him in confusion and then back at Ryuzaki. "What-how did I get here?" I questioned.
"Light called an ambulance and as soon as you both got here, he called me. After that I asked Watari to take me to this location so that I could be by your side." he told me, monotone voice remaining.
I laughed and placed my hand upon his cheek.
"How heroic of you."
I turned to Light and nodded to him with a slight smile. "Thanks Light."
He smiled and grasped my left hand in his. "No problem Naoki. I know you would've done the same for me, were I ever in that kind of predicament."
I laughed nervously then gasped as I felt a strange pain coming from my head.
"Ah damn it."
Ryuzaki looked at me with a concerned look as did Light. "Naoki are you alright?" he asked me as I looked up at him with a sad smile.
"I have this weird feeling like something's behind my eyes? That and I have a killing headache."
Ryuzaki nodded and looked into my eyes.
"Shall I call a doctor in or shall you be alright?" he asked me.
I shook my head and blinked a couple times, but still the pain did not go away. Placing a hand on my forehead, I looked up at him again.
"A bottle of aspirin would be nice, I feel like my head is going to explode. I usually keep some in my bag. Where is it?"
Instead of answering Ryuzaki got out of his chair and walked over to the corner where my bag lay and, picking it up carefully handed it to me. I smiled and thanked him as I began searching through the dark pockets, looking for the small bottle.
Suddenly the pain got worse and I cried out in pain. Now it felt like someone was clawing at my eye sockets, trying to get out.
"That's it! I'm getting a doctor." Light pronounced as he rushed out of the room.
Ryuzaki held my hand tightly as I tried desperately not to tear my eyes out. Moments later, Light came back with a doctor who came over to me with a needle in her hand.
She sterilized a spot on my arm before sticking me with the needle.
"Don't worry, I'm just giving you some morphine to dull the pain" she explained as she emptied the needles contents into my body. It took a few moments to work but eventually the pain did subside and the sensation of something behind my eyes and my headache were gone as quickly as they had come.
"Thanks that's much better." I told her with a slight smile.
She smiled at me and nodded.
"That's okay dear. Now because this pain is sudden and you've never had any history of sudden attacks like this, I'm going to have to arrange a CT scan for you, just to make sure everything up there is good and healthy. Okay.?"
I nodded and she left to arrange the scan leaving the three of us alone again.
Or at least I thought it was the three of us, for I kept getting this strange feeling that someone else was sharing the room with us.
It was strange but the presence felt, for some unknown reason, welcoming and usual. Like it had been there my entire life. I shook it off though when the sound of a phone ringing echoed throughout the room.
Light laughed awkwardly as he reached inside his pocket and pulled out his phone.
He looked up at myself and Ryuzaki and said.
"It's Misa, she's probably wondering where I am."
Ryuzaki nodded. "You should answer your phone then."
Light got up from his chair and walked quickly out of the room to answer his phone, leaving me and my lover alone.
I looked at him with a smile and held his hands.
I could see deep unaired worry in his eyes and hugged him the best I could whilst in the bed. He returned the hug and whispered in my ear "I was so worried that Kira had gotten to you."
I felt him hug me tighter and kissed his neck.
"Well, I'm still here. With you, and nothing is going to change that. Promise?" I asked him gently.
He looked at me with a serious expression just as the doctors came in to take me for my CT scan and whispered.
"I love you more than I can say Naoki, but I can't promise anything."
I stared at him with a shocked and hurt expression as I was wheeled away from the room.
'Why didn't he promise?' I thought as I was placed inside the scanner.
Lights POV
"Oh Light I was soooo worried! Where are you?" I heard Misa scream from the other end of the line.I held the phone away from my ear and waited for her to stop rambling before I began to talk to her.
"I'm at the hospital, Naoki passed out at school after..." I stopped mid sentence, a smirk crawling onto my face as the events at school came rushing back into my head.
I had told Naoki I was Kira, I had shown her my Death Note and she had seen Ryuk. So, why did she not mention it to L?
Then it suddenly dawned on me and my smirk grew.
'Oh Naoki, you poor girl' I snickered as I heard Misa moan about me not answering her and I laughed into the phone.
"Wha'? Light what are you laughing at?" Misa groaned.
"Oh it's just a joke that one of my friends told me at school the other day. Anyway, I'll see you tomorrow okay?" "I love you Light" she said lovingly.
"I love you too " I lied.
With that we both hung up.
I laughed again and walked back towards Naoki's room and sat down opposite my enemy thinking about my newest gain.
She didn't remember anything about the incident.
'What a strange and perfectly timed coincidence'
This will work to my advantage.
