Death note fanfiction:

In sickness and in health

Chapter Seven/Epilogue: Hospital Beds

Light woke up. His neck was hurting after sleeping in an uncomfortable position, and he reluctantly got up from the bench. There was no one around. The brown-haired boy walked to Ryuzaki's room's door and knocked three times.

"Come in", a silent voice answered. Light opened the door and stepped inside.

Ryuzaki was in a white hospital raiment. He was laying on his bed, at least ten different wires attached to his arm. The monitor was slowly beeping. There were IV's just next to Ryuzaki's bed.

The detective himself had an air mask on his face, but Light could see him smiling behind it.

"Hey, Light", he said with a hoarse voice. His eyes were foggy – probably because of all the medication he was getting.

"Hey, Ryuzaki", Light answered, smiling back at him. "How are you?"

"Better already, thanks. And also, no one seems to be suspecting that my ID is fake", L said. The brown-haired teen nodded.
"Perfect. You'll get out of here and back to work sooner than you think", Light smiled. The black-haired detective laid back his head and closed his eyes.

"These meds are making me kind of sleepy… you can stay here though", he said with a fading voice. After just a couple of seconds L's breaths were regular and deep – and the detective was asleep. Light sighed and looked around in the room. There was an armchair in the back of the room and he seated on it's soft pillows.

He was feeling sleepy himself too. This was thousand times more comfortable than the bench in the corridor. Here he could sleep some more.

. . . . . .

Light woke up when the doctors came in. His mind got brighter when he saw the old man who was with them. Watari.

"Ryuzaki! Are you alright?" he asked with concern in his voice – though the answer to his question was pretty obvious.

"I'm feeling better already, don't worry", L answered. He had also woken up when all the noise came in the room. Doctor Haru took L's blood a little bit for some more tests.

"What does he have?" Watari asked.

"It is some kind of variation of pneumonia. We're not sure yet – but the medication is working and he will recover perfectly", doctor Haru smiled.

Watari sighed. "Thank God."

. . . . . .

After Watari had left, Light and L were alone once again.

"Hey, look what I found", Light said and took out a chessboard he had found from one of the board drawers. L's eyes brightened.

There was a small table on the back of L's bed, and Light placed the chessboard on it.

"I'm white", Light announced.

"Fine by me."

So Light started the game.

"Light, you that the world's best detective owes you his life, right?" L started the conversation.
"Yeah?"

"So if there's anything you need..."

"Just focus on getting better", Light laughed. "I'm sure I'll figure something out later."
