This one's kind of long... My b...

OH! And Hideki is a famous pop star... just for those who didn't know...

Disclaimer: I do not own death note. The only things I own are Suki, Kaori and Denji.

Kaori was finally able to force herself out of bed around noon the next day. Even though it was Sunday, Denji had gone into work to play with a new product he was creating. She quickly took a shower and ate lunch before she called Light up.

"Hey Light, it's Kaori," she said once he picked up.

"What's up?" he asked.

"I was wondering if you could help me study for the college entrance exam that is coming up."

"You mean you haven't started?"

Kaori gave a nervous chuckle, "Well, I've been pretty busy lately."

"Well I must agree, looking at motorcycle magazines do take up time."

Kaori didn't say anything as her face turned red remembering the incident at the bookstore yesterday.

"It's fine, you can come over now if you want," Kaori could practically hear the smirk on his face.

"Thanks, I'll be over soon." With that, Kaori grabbed her school bag before heading out the door and to Light's house.

Kaori found herself on the familiar bed of Light Yagami. But this time, her school work as scattered all over the bed with Light sitting across from her. He had been testing her knowledge and giving her pointers on what would probably be on the exams. After two and a half hours of relentless studying, they finally took a break.

"I bet my brain would make a great plate of scrambled eggs right now," Kaori sighed as she leaned back against the head bored of the bed.

"If you actually studied like this every day, you would be as smart as I am," Light said, placing all the papers that were on the bed into a stack on the floor.

"Why would I want to be a self-centered prick who everyone is practically in love with, including teachers?" she half teased. How do you half tease? No idea.

"The real question is why would you not want to be someone everyone is practically in love with?" Light watched closely as Kaori's eyes started to drop.

"Because…" It was hard to fight off the urge to sleep, "…then I wouldn't be who I am today nor would I be… friends…with……you…."

Light smiled and shook his head as Kaori fell asleep practically falling off the side of his bed. He stood up and adjusted her body so it was lying properly in his bed before he went over to his desk to do some more studying.

Kaori woke with a start when a notebook smacked into her back.

"hummnah!" was her exact mumble as she twisted her head to the perpetrator who had woken her up. "Light, what's up?" she muttered rubbing her eyes.

"Although I think I like you better when you're sleeping," Light dodged an on-coming pillow, "it's dinner time and mom would love it if you ate with us."

"I love your mom," Kaori got off the bed and stretched her tired muscles before following Light down to the kitchen. "Mmmm. Something smells good!" Kaori said as she walked to the diner table

"How are you Kaori dear?" Mrs. Yagami, also known as Sachiko, asked hugging Kaori before going back to setting the table.

"Amazing now that my brain's become play dough," Kaori joked sitting next to Sayu at the table. Light was helping Sachiko set the table while Sayu and Kaori watched the music channel. The food was finally on the table, so Light sat across from Kaori and Sachiko sat across from Sayu.

"Hideki is sooo gorgeous," Sayu gushed, eyes glued to the television.

"I must agree," Kaori said, "I take a piece of that any day." Sayu and Kaori giggled while Sachiko just laughed.

Light scoffed, "Not another music channel. You two would be better off watching the news."

"No way"--"Not in your life" Sayu and Kaori said at the same time.

"Why don't you like anyone?!" Sayu asked. Light's eyes flickered across the table, before looking at his sister.

"We interrupt this program to bring you a NKK News Bulletin." All heads shifted to the TV screen just in time to see 'Interpol to send total of 1,500 detectives from various countries to Japan to help solve Kira case' flash across top.

"1,500 detectives? Wow…" Sayu commented rather shocked.

"Interpol is so stupid," Light said, "What's the point if they announce it like this?" He continues on to say that they're bluffing because it would be pointless to send that many detectives and announce it to the entire world, therefore alerting Kira that they're coming for him. But during his entire explanation, Kaori started to wonder if Light knew more about Kira than any other person or he was just damn smart. "But it's pretty obvious. I'm sure Kira's figured that out too."

"But how would you know what goes through Kira's head?" Kaori said, gears in her head turning rapidly.

"I don't," Light replied, eyes narrowing slightly.

"Then how can you assume that Kira already figured it out within five minutes of the broadcast?"

"He's already shown his intelligence by not being caught when he's killed so many." Kaori caught heard Light's tone had started getting a edge to it.

She just sighed, then feigned a yawn and checked the clock, "Gosh, I'm tired. I guess I better head home unless you want me to sleepover." She got up from the table before saying her goodbyes. "Thank you Mrs. Yagami for the amazing dinner. Sayu, I'll make sure I stop by and see you soon." Kaori paused while she turned to Light. She had a feeling he knew she was faking her tiredness. "And thank you for helping me study for the entrance exam, Light. I owe you big time."

As soon as Kaori was outside the Yagami property, she slowed down her steps. 'I'm really glad I didn't bring up Kira before I saw him react to the broadcast,' Kaori thought to herself. 'He got a little to 'passionate' about that subject at dinner time. And how would he know what Kira thought… unless he was Kira himself. But… that's impossible, right?'
