A Few Days Later…

Light wakes up early in the morning, stretching out his arms. He gets out of bed. It's Saturday, which means I have plenty of time to talk to Raven today… He puts on one of his T-shirts, as Ryuk says, "What are you going to do today, Light?" Light's lips rise into a smirk,

"I'm going to play Raven right into my hands…"

…..

Raven has been up for a while now, trying to think of a way to get into that drawer in Light's room. If he really is Kira, it must be his tool to kill! But how can I get to it without him knowing…? Light isn't an idiot… She yawns, having not gotten much sleep. She jumps, startled when her phone rings. She looks down, seeing that it's Light. Calm down… Take a deep breath and answer it… "Hello?"

"Hey Raven." Light's voice sounds normal, but has a small touch of excitement in it. Strange… What would he be excited about?

"Hey Light, what's up?"

"I was just wondering if you'd like to go out to dinner with me tonight." Raven is speechless. Is he… Asking me out? She takes a deep breath. Breathe. Stay calm. He's a teenage guy; it's normal to go out on a date. Now answer him…

"That sounds like fun. What time?"

"I'll pick you up at seven thirty tonight."

"Okay, see you at seven thirty." She ends the call and sets her phone down, thinking about this. No… I shouldn't think too hard about this. It's just a date. I can investigate and deduct when I see him. For now… Relax.

…..

Light's mouth moves up in a smile. "Perfect..."

"So," Ryuk says, "What did she say?" Light grins,

"We're going out to dinner tonight. And after, she's going to help me make this world a better place…" He thinks about Raven, feeling his heart race a bit. No… His hands clench into fists as he tenses up. I can't have these feelings about her… That would be weakness. Kira doesn't have any weaknesses… Stop thinking about her. Think about tonight, when you'll be another step closer to being the god of the new world.

I'm so sorry! I've been so distracted lately that I haven't been focusing on this! But now that it's summer, I don't have school to worry about, so I should hopefully be updating more often. Sorry for the short chapter; I feel bad for making you wait so long, and there wasn't much to write. But the next chapter will be when they have dinner, so it should be longer. Thanks for reading, and don't forget to REVIEW! Thanks. :D
