Recap.
"That didn't go as planned...now did it?" He cackles manically. Light growls menacingly and walks down the sidewalk.
That should have worked. I could of sworn she was about to cave. How it of could backfired so...so bad? Light stops walking. No... No, no wait. This is good. I can use this to my advantage. She won't feel comfortable around me now, and I can use that... Perfect. Light smirks and looks at Ryuk.
"I'm going to need you to do some more spying for me," Light says softly.
Ryuk just chuckles dryly.
"I just don't understand, I really don't…" Karasu mutters while pacing in her room. She growls and throws her hands up, tossing her head back staring at the roof. What the hell is he thinking? Just randomly kissing me? Does he honest to god like me? Or what? Fucking hell!
"Hyukyukyuk…She seems a little flustered after what Light did…Does he really have that big of an impression?" Ryuk says looming ominously over her shoulder. He shakes his head and watches.
"Wait!" Karasu says suddenly. "He's just trying to get under my skin. There is no way in hell I'm going to let him do that. No way," She says, slowly slinking down onto her bed, bringing her legs up. "No way in hell…"
Ryuk chuckles and disappears.
Terror, death, demons…Ripping through the shreds of today's society…Causing everything to crumble, slowly and painfully…Enemies rising and the forsaken falling…There is no end to this tyranny..Everything will soon come crashing to a devastating end…
"What!?" Karasu yelps, jolting up in her bed, tangled in the sheets. A cold sweat clings to her body, as her chest rises and falls, shaking. "A-A dream..That's all..Just a dream," she says to herself in a small squeaky voice.
'5:37am… I still have a few more hours to sleep…I don't think I'll be able to after that,' She sighs and untangles her legs from the sheets, standing up slowly. 'I could go for a walk to clear my mind…Yeah.. .' Karasu stretches, and grabs her coat, slinging it over her shoulders. She checks for her keys and then heads down the hall. The floor creaks with every second step, as she glances out a window, noticing the sun just peaking over the building, casting a dull orange glow.
Karasu reaches out and opens the front door, stepping outside shivering instantly at the cold morning air. She lets out a long breath and starts on her way down the steps, cautiously glancing over to where the side door is.
'That's where he…No, shut up!' She growls and rubs her temples, opening the gate. 'You're acting stupidly. Just don't think about it…' Karasu opens her oceanic eyes and blinks slowly, looking around. She had only walked a few steps, but she could have sworn she heard something. Somebody.
"You're overreacting Karasu…There is nothing there," She mutters under her breath. She didn't even believe herself. 'It would take less that 5 second to get to my house…but I locked the door, so add a lot longer to that.. .' She bites her lip, walking slowly, her hand straying to her coat pocket. She cringes slightly realizing she forgot her cell phone.
Thud.
Her entire body freezes, as the hairs on the back of her neck perk up. She definitely heard something, and it wasn't small.
Thud.
"Who's there?" Karasu says, spinning around, looking around frantically.
Clank.
'Who the hell…I can't see anybody, but I swear to god there is something there....' She bites her lip, brushing her long hair over her shoulder. "Don't play games with me."
Thud. Thud. Crash.
With a slight shriek she jumps back, and falls into a bush, her eyes widening as a huge buck streaks past, knocking over a garbage can. She gapes, then bursts out laughing, blushing at her own stupidity.
"How stupid can I be…Like really, it was just a deer," She smiles and stumbles out of the bush, picking leaves off her coat and nightgown. The sun had risen higher and the temperature has warmed slightly. With a soft sigh she turns and walks back towards her house. "Stupid stupid."
"That's not nice to say about yourself," a cool, calm voice says. Karasu screams and spins around, her eyes huge. Those familiar liquid amber eyes gaze into her oceanic blue ones, as she stares.
"L-Light?! What the hell are you doing here? At this time?" Karasu asks quickly, instantly putting her guards up. He just rolls his eyes.
"Don't get too excited, I'm not here to see you. I live across the street, I hope you do realize this," Light says, motioning to his house. Karasu slowly turns and looks.
'I am such an idiot..' Karasu groans and rubs her forehead.
"I..Sorry Light, but still, why are you…Here, across the street. Near me?" Karasu asks, looking up at him.
"I heard some crashing and noises so I came to investigate. Mrs. Yakupata has been complaining about dogs getting into her garbage, so I just naturally thought it was a dog. But it turns out it was just you." Light says, blinking his face remaining partially emotionless.
"Well, sorry for wanting to go for a walk, but if you'll excuse me, I feel like I should go," Karasu says, turning.
"What's the rush? Look, I'm sorry for kissing you so suddenly, I just couldn't help myself," Light chuckles and smiles a warm (fake) smile. Karasu looks at him suspiciously. "You're just such a gorgeous girl."
'Wait, what?' Karasu gawks at him. 'Gorgeous? Is he out of his mind? Maybe he's sleep walking and talking..'
"...Hey are you alive?" Light asks after Karasu remains silent for over a minute, her mouth hanging open. She snaps back and shakes her head.
"Oh, sorry, I just, what?" Karasu asks sheepishly, blinking. The confusion flushed over her face. Light just smirks.
"Well, I don't lie," Light says, shoving his hands in his pants pockets gazing over her face blankly. She blinks and huffs lightly.
"Hyukyukyuk…you are a nasty liar," Ryuk cackles as Lights eyes quickly glance up to him in a cold dark glare. Ryuk just chuckles dryly.
"S-sorry…This is just kind of…awkward, don't you think?" Karasu mutters, fidgeting as somebody opens a blind, letting the sunshine in. Light blinks and looks at her with a fake innocence.
"I don't think it's awkward. Yes, I acted out of hand yesterday, but that doesn't mean you have to judge me, or hate me for it." Light explains, and then glances at his watch. "Though, I have to get going. I'll talk to you at school."
"Ahh..Yeah alright," Karasu says, blinking with confusion. Light smirks and waves slightly before sauntering off across the street. She waves back and stares. "That was slightly awkward."
She shakes her head and quickly runs back to her house, unlatching the gate before bolting up her steps. She opens the door and steps inside, letting out a long breath. While she made her way up the hallway, Light stood outside on his front porch, gazing at her house.
"Well Ryuk, it appears you were right," Light mutters, reaching behind a pot pulling out a ruby red apple. Ryuk perks up and nods.
"I am always right," Ryuk says, staring at the apple. Light nods and tosses it into the air, as Ryuk grabs a hold of it chowing down. Light blinks and his smile tightens into a thin line.
Finally updated. Enjoy.
