Enjoy, leave a review on the way out!
After dinner, Light decided he had to ask, he hated questioning his trust in her like this but he needed some reassurance to ease his mind.
He watches her gracefully place the dishes in the dishwasher, turning it on, she noticed the heavy glances he gave her, she smirks and giggles mischievously.
"Light? What is it? You've been looking at me strangely all night.."
She slides her hands onto the smooth surface of the counter, her bare lips twisted into a large smile.
He snaps out of his trancelike state, standing from the dining table he clears his throat and steps aside to push the chair in.
"I've been meaning to ask you something. You need to be honest."
"Okay..what is it?"
Her smile falls as he inches toward her.
"Did you get that shot? From your doctor? So you didn't have to take the pill everyday?"
Each sentence formed a nervous question, it was evident in his eyes.
"Of course, why? You don't believe me?"
She raises a brow and sassily places her hands on her hips, tilting her head to the right slightly as she watched him.
"No. I was just curious is all. Now, have you made that appointment for tomorrow?"
He felt a sense of great relief brush over him as he heard her response.
"I'll call early tomorrow, I really hate to bother my doctor though, especially for a stupid note of health…stupid producer!"
She grumbles and moves from the counter to stand beside her lover, he opens his mouth to respond only to be hushed by a soft pairs of lips.
"I've missed you…"
"I know." He breathes and pulls in for another kiss, sliding his hands down the silk fabric of her slip on dress, trailing lower to her exposed thighs, a knock interrupts the heating moment. His fingers tense up in annoyance as he retracts slowly, watching as Misa sighs in the shared dismay and heads to the door.
"Of course." She pouts as she opens the front door, revealing a familiar figure, as he takes a step inside Light holds a sigh as he sees L, nonchalantly making an entrance into the couples' home.
"Hello, is this not a good time?"
Misa closes the door with a soft click, turning her head in his direction quickly, another pouty response blows passed her lips.
"You need to learn how to call, Ryuzaki!"
"I called last time."
Misa's cheeks flare with crimson and she narrows her fiery blue eyes. "You have to call every time!" She grunts as he ignores her fuss and returns his attention to Light.
"I figured I should get out, I'm not used to having friends."
He admits, his head hanging low, his painfully nail bitten thumb tucked under his lip, his gaze on his rugged sneakers that were untied and skidded with dirt.
Light stares silently along with the blonde girl who made her way back to his side, as usual she breaks the heavy silence.
"Ryuzaki…that's so sad!"
She presses her hands against her cheeks, tiny buds of tears brewing over the rims of her large eyes.
"You know, why don't you stay for a bit? I have some wine for the occasion!"
"I don't drink."
"Wha! Why not?" She gawks and halts mid step.
"I don't like the taste. I enjoy sweets. Cakes especially."
Light chuckles and beckons L to the couch as he sat on the left side, watching as the messy haired detective took off his shoes, no socks. It made Light wonder how seriously L took in his appearance, especially to others. Evidently not so much.
"Well, I can always go down to the bakery to buy something! They should be open another hour!"
Misa chimes as she enters the view of the two men, L tried his best not to delve his eyes into the natural curve of her cleavage, which was difficult to do so with how low-cut her dress was, he never had an issue keeping eye contact though. She was quite the provocative woman.
"I'll go." Light insists, standing.
"No, it's not right for a man to be alone with your girlfriend." Misa watches him grab his coat from the rack.
"Then Ryuzaki and I will go. You can stay here."
Light pulls on his jacket and slips on his shoes, waiting for L to join him.
"Great idea. Watari is waiting outside anyhow, we will be back momentarily."
Misa waves to the two as they leave, closing the door behind them.
/
"So, uh..what's with the new getup?"
Light refers to the sunglasses and black baseball cap that L lazily placed on before getting out of the car and into the store that was brightly lit with harsh yellow lights and bright photos of every sweet imaginable, his teeth were hurting from just browsing the selections.
"Just in case, I wear these when in public."
"Oh..I see."
The two nod to the happy women dressed in maid uniform, they quickly showed their bestsellers and new products offering samples, L didn't pass this up as he sampled every cake they owned.
Light shuffles his in hands in his pockets, unsure of what to get. He wasn't much of a dessert person.
As he decides, he notices a woman step beside him following by the click of the entrance door, he hides the grimace in his face as he turns to see Kiyomi, this time with Hideki, Misa was right; they were dating.
The women behind the counter along with the handful of customers squeak and huddle to him like fish on a hook. It was almost embarrassing.
"Ah look, Amane's ex."
"Do you have to say it like that?" Light grunts as he turns away from the crowd of girls and the woman who smugly looked at him, L noticed this too.
"Don't you know her?"
"I did. What did you want to get? I don't want to keep Misa waiting."
Light was now eager to get whatever the hell L wanted and leave. Fast.
"I'm not sure."
"The chocolate one looks good."
"It's too high in percentage."
"Okay, what about the raspberry?"
"Hm, I think I'll get the strawberry shortcake and the cheesecake cupcakes."
"Good choice."
Just then, Kiyomi butts in with an index finger against the glass, pointing to a piece of cake with a candied orange on the top.
"That one is my favorite. I think you should try it as well." She smirks, L could sense the irritation from the man beside him. He nods and adds that to his list.
"Hi Light." She adds on, stepping away from the buzz Hideki reeled in.
"Hey.."
"I didn't know you liked sweets. Where's Miss Amane?" Her grin just kept getting wider.
"At home, I'm just going to pick her up something. Nothing for myself."
"Oh? I thought she was a model? They aren't allowed to eat sweets? No?"
Light had never wanted to harm a woman, not once, it never crossed his mind until now. That snide remark accompanied by her sly expression, Misa would be hurt by her words and that boiled his blood.
"She works hard at what she does. She deserves something sweet from time to time."
Again he hides the annoyance in his face, itching to be home and be with the woman who waited so eagerly for him.
"Hm, that's very generous of you…tell her I say hi."
He nods as she walks away, linking her arm with Hideki, who notices Light immediately giving him a strange stare. The two whisper for a moment before taking a seat.
L pays as Light picks out a small heart shaped cupcake with pink icing and candy glitter. It reminded him of Misa oddly enough.
"You are quite the ladies man."
"Don't mention it."
/
As Light unlocks the door he is greeted with a gleeful hug and a surprised squeal. L couldn't understand how Light got used to her loud outbursts. He sure didn't.
"Aw! I love it. I won't eat it now, I'll wait for tomorrow."
"Why not now? I got it for you."
Light sits back on the couch as he watched Misa undo the tiny cake, jealously peeking over at L's strawberry shortcake.
"Hmm too much temptation! I think I'm going to bed. I'll eat it tomorrow, okay? I don't want to completely ruin my diet!"
Misa places the delicate cake back into the pink box and into the fridge, she spins around to meet Light at the couch, leaning in to kiss his cheek.
"Goodnight!"
"Goodnight, Misa."
There was a bout of silence after she left, just that familiar sound of silverware clicking.
"So, how is it living alone, without your parents?" L says as he finishes the piece of cake. "I like it. I like having my own space. Misa understands when I want alone time."
"Hm, I see. I enjoy it too, though I'm continuously on the move. Right now I'm looking into a case in America, the police contacted me. I'm not quite sure if it's Kira or not."
Light makes a sound in disbelief, staring at him with wide eyes. "What? And you haven't said anything?"
"I'll probably go by myself if I need to investigate there, don't worry you'd still be working under me. In fact, you'd make a great decoy 'L' for my absence, I'd hate to worry the police here."
"Ryuzaki, you can't just drop something like this. If you go to the United States I'm going with you! Especially if Kira is involved…by the way, what makes you think that?"
"There's been a two week period of inmate suicides. All had the death penalty. Not too sure about the deaths yet. They haven't reported that to me, they didn't release these deaths to public, to avoid a panic I assume."
"I can't believe this…do you think it's Kira?"
"Possibly. But suicide in prison isn't uncommon, especially when you've already got the death penalty..so I want to wait before assuming it's Kira, there's a five percent chance, even so, it could still be him."
Light rests his back against the couch, his heart racing. He hoped it wasn't Kira, but then again, he did. He needed to know.
"I'm going with you, if you go that is."
"No, I need Japan's government and police force to think I'm still here."
L waves the fork that was clutched between his thumb and index finger in Light's face, he looks at him again with the same shocked expression. "You need me. You know it. Especially if it is Kira."
L doesn't say a word as he gets up, placing the dessert boxes back into the bag, he shuffles to the door, slipping on his shoes.
"Goodnight, I'll see you tomorrow."
/
Misa awoke, absentmindedly reaching for the warmth of her lover's body next to her, instead she was met with the sharp edge of paper and the smooth sheets that lay underneath.
She sits up slowly, her heart sank, she wanted to at least say 'goodbye' before he left! She grabs the paper and flips it over. A note left from Light:
'I had to go in early, I didn't want to wake you. I'll see you after work, I'll be home around 6pm, don't forget to call the doctor. I love you.'
"Aw, I love you too Light!"
She clutches the note to her chest, reaching for her cellphone beside her on the nightstand.
/
Light sat at the task force, biting his tongue whenever L spoke, hoping he'd spill the new information, it was odd when he never did. Did L just want to keep it between the two of them? It was wrong. The rest of the team deserved to know.
When everyone went on a small break, leaving the two alone. Light spoke up.
"How come you aren't telling them about the suicides in America? Shouldn't they know?"
L taps a few keys of his laptop before answering
slowly.
"No. I told you out of trust. I can't tell anyone else, even Watari. Out of agreement with the President of the United States."
Light turns to him with the intent to speak, he doesn't. Instead he folds his arms and returns his attention to his own laptop screen.
"Why don't you take the rest of the day off? You're here from morning till night. I'm sure Misa misses you greatly."
"Now why would I do that? I made a commitment to stay and catch Kira."
L lets out a breath of irritation. "I highly doubt we'll find anything new today. In fact. I know we won't. I'll tell the others as well. I'd like to research on my own for awhile.."
"Fine. If you're going to act that way, I'll leave."
The sound of the wheels of Light's chair skid loudly against the flooring as he stands, tugging at the cords of his laptop and wires.
"Don't be so dramatic."
Light furrows a brow in defense. "I'm not."
"You're so serious…enjoy the rest of your day. I will contact you if I find anything." L says, almost sarcastically.
As the young man leaves through the elevator and to the garage, he thinks of Misa briefly through his tame fit of anger, how happy she'll be to see him. It made him smile. He pulls his cellphone from his coat pocket, sending her a quick text.
The doors slide open, revealing Matsuda and Aizawa, both wielding coffee. Matsuda smirks as Light exits, holding his arm out to keep the elevator open.
"That's a nice suit, Light! Where do you go to buy them?"
Matsuda points a pinky out from the hand that held the drink, almost spilling it. Jumbling quickly he regains his grasp with a look of embarrassment.
"I buy them at the local menswear shop. They're pretty expensive."
Aizawa laughs at Light's snide remark as the two enter the elevator.
/
Misa's phone buzzes against the porcelain of the large gradient counter of the bathroom, she emerges from the hot shower just in time to see her phone light up, she quickly grabs a towel, wrapping it around her small form, hopping to her phone she swipes it from the counter, opening it quickly she giggles in glee:
'Misa I'm coming home early. Wear your best dress, I have a surprise for us. See you soon.'
"Oh Light, you have such good timing.." she swoons as she snaps her phone shut. Making her way to the bedroom, she glides open the closet, tapping her lower lip as she stares for a dress.
"Aha!" She exclaims as she pulls a dress from the stuffed rack.
/
Light parks in his spot at the apartment's sparse underground parking lot, he locks the car as he gets out. Hiding the excitement in his walk as he reached the elevators, he knew the moment he saw her she'd be dressed in the most ravishing dress she owned. Bursting with joy when she sees his face, it was bliss.
He gets up to the first floor with ease, quickly getting to his apartment room, waiting for a moment before opening, he expected the bouncy blonde to run to him with open arms, screaming his name. Nothing.
"Misa?"
He calls as he closes the door behind him, the living room was clean and he could tell she'd been burning her candles again. She was no where in sight, strange for a woman who usually sat by the door for his arrival, no matter how sadistic that sounded. It was true.
The sound of rustling came from their master bathroom, he slowly inches in, smiling as he catches his girlfriend, swiping red lipstick over her lips. She groans in dismay when she sees him.
"Light, I'm not done yet."
He raises a brow. "You look…amazing." Taking in her iridescent dress the shade of the night sky, it was if she were wearing the stars themselves. She looked out of this world.
She smiles as she turns to him. "Thanks, so what's the surprise?"
"I was thinking we should go out to this restaurant I read about, it's French themed..I believe it's called les amoreux…" he struggled to pronounce the foreign title, emitting a short giggle from the blonde who excitedly clapped.
"Yes! So many couples go there! That's perfect, I haven't been sick at all today!"
"Did you see the doctor?"
"Nope. He wasn't in. I see him tomorrow."
"I see, well…let's go. I made reservations."
/
"Hey Light?"
Misa nods to him when he opens the passenger door for her. "Hm?" He watches her hold the skirt of her dress down so the material wouldn't ride up as she got in the car. "Why did you leave work so early?"
He didn't want to tell her L gave him the time off because he worked so much, that'd make this night feel forced. So he twisted the truth a bit, to fit the charm he was graced with.
"Ryuzaki wanted some time alone and gave the team the rest of the day off, I had a choice..but I figured I should come home to you…"
Light leans into the vehicle, closing in on the blonde she grins as he presses his lips against hers, thankful she wore a lipstick that didn't budge and transfer.
A silent peck on the lips transformed into a heated one rather fast, Light was amazed at Misa's force, pulling him onto her, he didn't complain or stop her, she pulled the lever on the side of the seat to lower the backrest allowing her lover to hover over her in a dominant fashion.
Their lips never stop, hands carefully roaming bodies and soft moans echoed throughout the underground lot.
"Oh Light…!"
A higher pitched moan slips passed her as a hand quickly slides up her thigh, wasting no time in teasing her clothed sex, he runs his thumb over the soft silky fabric, feeling the sensitive skin beneath, applying pressure to the highest point of her center.
"I want you.." he breathes, kissing her open mouth again, she arches her hips upward trying her best to feel more of him.
"Please…" she presses her mouth against his neck, a hand clasped against the wrist that hid under her skirt, toying with her, his masculine scent aroused her further, it was intoxicating, she needed him. So bad.
Light nods at her, allowing the blonde beneath him to unravel his belt, her hands were shaking as she unbuttoned him, trying her best to keep their lips interlocked, he laughs against her mouth as he aids her in undoing himself.
She wiggles her panties down, her heart racing as she anticipated the nearing pleasure.
He aligns himself against her entrance, dipping in to kiss her again as he pushes in, a groan of approval erupts from the two, Misa wraps her arms around his back, locking him in position with her legs, she cries for him to move faster, it was a bit of a battle being in a vehicle, with such small space, but he wasn't going to leave her unsatisfied.
He thrusts forward fast and quick, focusing on the feeling of her walls progressively clenching around him, she was slick already, he could feel himself nearing the unavoidable climax, especially with how risky this was, the thought that anyone could catch them in the act like this only made everything that much enjoyable.
The sound of Misa's suede heels clanked against the dashboard as she wriggles in ecstasy, loud and breathy cries echo around the couple, she grips him tighter, her lips pressing against the side of his cheek placing small kisses against his soft and warm skin.
"Misa…" he groans, his usual stoic and well spoken voice had crumbled into shaken words and gasps for air and the lips of hers, it was the thing that got Misa the most, the way he sounded during sex and the way he looked, so broken in lust and need for her.
The blonde reaches up to run her fingers through his chestnut hair, even during sex it stayed so in place, aside from his bangs of course, which strays of red-brown hair would stick to his damp skin, nonetheless, he looked so proper.
"That feels..amazing..!" She grits her teeth and the hands in his hair turn into fists as he hits the special spot inside of her. "Oh..God..don't stop!" She whines, he groans as he continues at the desired speed, his left hand slides down against the rough material of her dress, squeezing the thigh that was wrapped around his waist.
"I'm close..please.." she watches him turn to her, his lustful eyes meeting her half lidded ones, he kisses her again, demanding entrance into her sweet mouth, she complies without complaint, allowing him to explore her mouth, she grips the polyester beneath her as she came, her eyes rolling back as the euphoric high surged through her veins, her entire body felt electric and weak, he thrusts upward a few times before allowing himself his own high, he came, pumping the sticky liquid inside of her, he stays like this for a moment, regaining strength.
"I love you.." she whispers as he moves from atop of her, getting out of the vehicle he revels in the cool air that hit his reddened face, he adjusts his tie and fixes his belt.
"I love you too.." he says under his breath, he checks the time on his watch, they had 15 minutes before their reservation would be voided. He clears his throat sternly.
"Alright, lets go."
He shuts the door of the passenger, circling behind the car to the drivers side, still winded by the incredible sex he'd just partaken in.
"You must be Ryuzaki's favorite.."
Misa says as Light enters the car, he shoots her a puzzled glance. His face was still red.
"Why do you say that?"
"Well, isn't it obvious? He gave you the choice to go or stay, he actually leaves that dungeon to come see you…duh!"
"He's just being nice because he feels bad for keeping us in lockdown for so long."
"Whatever you say.."
He starts up the car and heads out, thinking on Misa's words. Should he tell her about what L said? If Light did have to go to the U.S. would be able to take her? Or decoy as L? He'd be busy 24/7.
"We haven't been on a proper date in so long!"
Misa rolls down the window to catch a glimpse of the darkened sky, specks of stars began to show, with how strong Japan's city light was, it was difficult to see the tiny sparks of light.
"I know, I'm excited."
He says, sounding the opposite. Misa turns to him. "Something on your mind?"
"No, why?"
"Just curious."
"How was your day? You said you're feeling better?"
"Mhm! I mean I felt kinda dizzy today and exhausted..but I feel okay now."
Light kept his eyes on the road. "At least you're not as sick as before."
"Yeah, Maybe…" Misa turns to him briefly. "Have you seen that stuck up Kiyomi? She was in the lobby today while I was checking our mail, she smirked at me! Ugh, I could have wrung her neck dry!"
Misa rambles, it was as if anything that came to mind slipped passed her lips. No filter.
"Don't be like that. I'm sure she just wants to get under your skin. You're smarter than that."
Light's words of wisdom hush her for a moment, the street lights beaming in the car's windows, rays of bronze hues showcased the now miffed blonde.
"Misa, I have to say...you're cute when you're jealous."
"I am not jealous!" She exclaims, her cheeks puffed out like a bratty child, her pigtails really painted the picture well.
"You expect me to believe such a lie?" He chuckles as she lets out an exaggerated grumble.
"Yes, because I am above her. I could care less that she's going into NHN. All that stupid Ryuga does is talk about her and how she's such a great reporter…that's no talent! Just reading off a screen? I have to act out scenes and work my butt off!"
Light holds a small sigh, it was no use, she needed to vent the pent up anger.
"Misa. Let's not ruin our dinner talking about her. I love you. Only you."
He pushes on the brakes at the red light, turning to his left to look Misa in the eyes, he leans in to kiss the corner of her mouth.
"Oh Light…I love you so much."
/
They arrive at the fancy restaurant, greeted by hosts dressed extravagantly, it almost felt as if the two were entering another world, country, or even a celebration of a celebrity's special appearance.
"Woah, this place is amazing. How'd you even book it?"
"I guess I was lucky…"
"Hello, Miss Amane! We are thrilled to have you here! Please, the best spot for you and your date."
A man dressed in a noir suit and tie bows to the couple, he smiles elegantly, showing off his white teeth. "This way, please."
Misa shoots Light a glance. "How did they know I'd be here?"
"I may or may not have mentioned that over the phone."
He says shrugging as they followed the man through the maze of round tables, full of expensive looking individuals, some of which gawked at the multimedia starlit and whispered in awe, pointed or waved.
On each surface there was a single red rose, with two stalks of baby's breath, white candles lit the tabletops and the ceiling even had murals of cherubs and clouds. It was so romantic, like a dream.
"Here you are, a private suite."
"Thank you…" Misa whispers as they enter a room that shut out the loud crowd, this room was lit in a soft hue of red, they sit at the round table that was identical to the others, except there was a bouquet with Misa's name attached to it.
"I'll leave you two to the menus, I have a wine that was imported from France itself, it's complimentary. Free of charge."
"Oh wow, that'd be great. Thank you so much!"
Misa says as her jaw drops slightly.
"Perfect, I will return."
He leaves the two alone now, Misa turns her gaze back to the man before her.
"Why did you go through all this trouble? Just to…please me?"
"Because, we haven't been on a real date in well…ever, I figured this would really make a great first date."
"Light, we're already moved in together!"
He chuckles lowly, he could tell she still wasn't used to his affection, or maybe this just seemed to out of the ordinary for her.
"And I've never taken you out to dinner."
He adds, smiling as she hides the joyful giggle that begged to be heard. She looked so beautiful, so happy. He couldn't imagine a better woman, a better feeling than this, looking at her.
"I guess there's a first for everything.."
She whispers as she sips on the iced water, each time their eyes met they shared the same feeling of peace and love.
Once the wine arrived and the two ordered their dinner, Misa began to feel that annoying sickly jab in her stomach.
She pours the wine into her glass and downs it rather fast, this catches Light's attention quickly.
"You should slow down, I don't want you to get drunk." He jokes, watching her hazy blue eyes catch his, her cheeks were already flush and she began to giggle.
"I'm fine..don't worry about me…"
"I will, remember when you got drunk at the housewarming party? I had to stay up with you all night."
He shoots a glare of warning, even in her drunken state she got the severity of his seriousness and pushes the wine bottle away. She looks down to the grilled chicken with lemon on her plate, it's smell bugged her, it was rancid.
"What is it?" He asks, noticing her disgusted expression.
"This smells bad.."
"I got the same thing. It's good and healthy..it looks fine." He says, looking at his own plate.
"I'll take it home. I'm gonna get the chocolate lava cake, doesn't that look good?"
Light blinks at her, almost surprised at her words. Before she was on a strict diet and now she's passing up a 4 star entrée for dessert?
"Uh yeah..don't you want your dinner first?"
"Nope, this looks good, oh! They even have tarts! They look good too…" she clutches the menu, it must be due to her having a few too many drinks.
She goes on to order the lava cake and a small platter of macaroons, he was dumbfounded.
He didn't want to be rude and stop her, he'd seem like a shallow jerk, of course even if she did eat all of that, it'd take a lot more than a piece of cake and small pastries to actually cause a lasting effect on her body. She was so thin already…
The waiter came and placed the desserts down, Light had to agree, they looked delicious. But he couldn't give in, he had to keep his health up and in shape, besides, being around L all the time made him sick of sweets.
Misa ruptures the cake with her fork, thick chocolate glaze pours from the fluffy spongelike dessert, she giggles and takes a bite. Her eyes light up in glee.
"You have to take a bite! It's soo good!"
She insists as she takes another large bite, he shakes his head, he'd rather watch this in awe.
"Misa, how's the work going for the new movie you're in?" He asks as she digs into the macaroons.
"Great…! I play as a villain in this one. It's a thriller.."
She says between bites, thinking before speaking again.
"Light…I don't feel so good."
/
They left soon after Misa spoke about her sickness, Light immediately suspected it was the alcohol, despite her only having 3 glasses, she whined as they drove back to the apartments.
"We're almost home…hang on."
He says, trying to keep his eyes on the road, thankfully they were the one on it.
"I'm gonna-" she gags covering her mouth with her hands.
Light curses under his breath as he quickly pulls over next to the closed strip mall, a city dumpster was her destination, she hacked into it, crying as she did so, she felt so embarrassed! Here she was, dating the man of her dreams, living with him! A man who works under L himself and she's drunk puking into a garbage can next to a closed down clothing shop..
Light put the car in park and slowly walked up behind her, placing a hand on the small of her back. Rubbing in circular motions.
"You're fine, don't cry…" he turns away as she gags again, letting loose into the trash beneath her.
After some time she feels better enough to get home, once there, Light runs her a bath; tossing in random body wash he found under the bathroom's cabinets.
"I'm sorry Light…" she says as she enters the bathroom, she didn't look drunk anymore, just pale and weak. Sick.
"Misa, if you get sick again we're going to the ER."
He says hastily as she unravels the robe from her around her body, he helps her into the tub of heated water, flooded with bubbles. He crouches down to level with her face.
"Here, I'll get you something for your stomach, I think there's some in the drawer over here…"
Light stands again and retreats to the drawer, he pulls it out, quickly scattering through the already messy compartment, he hitches a breath when he finds a box, an at home pregnancy test.
He picks it up slowly, turning to his right to look at the blonde who rested against the tub's surface.
"…Misa, why do you have these?"
She perks up and her eyes widened. "Oh, I take them sometimes, just to be sure…"
"When was the last time you took one?"
His voice began to crack again, not in the way Misa liked, she hushes her voice as she lowers herself in the bath. "A month ago. It was negative like the rest."
Light clenches his jaw. "Can you take one now?"
"What? Why? I'm not pregnant."
"How can you be so sure? You haven't taken one in a month, you're nauseous. You've been sick the last few days…just..do it." He says calmly, placing the cardboard box on the edge of the counter. He doesn't look at her as he turns for the door.
"I'll be waiting in the bedroom."
Misa opens her mouth to speak, but doesn't. She glares at the box and grunts. "I'm not pregnant. He's wrong.."
She says to herself as she stands from the now warm water, stepping out of the bath she nervously reaches for the test. Taking a deep breath she breaks open the box and follows the instructions…
"Okay..wait three minutes." She says to herself, placing the test down on the counter she grabs her robe and wraps herself in it. Angry at Light for doing this and that attitude he gave her…
She waits and waits. Checking the digital clock by the door, it'd been 4 minutes. She turns around and grabs the the tube shaped stick. Gasping as she saw a vibrant pink plus sign.
/
Light sat on the edge of the bed, reviewing his life so far, he was not ready for a baby.
Especially with Kira on the loose and his growing position in L's workforce, not to mention, what would his parents say? His Dad would avoid him at all costs and his Mother would cry…Just the thought alone scared him. And not much scared the young man.
Just then his phone rings, startling him, he pulls it from his pant's pocket and breathes out a sigh when he sees it's L. Flipping it open quickly.
"Hello?"
"Light, I think you were right. I'm going to need you to come to the United States with me."
Light stands fast, pacing to the living room.
"What happened? Why do you say that?"
"Can you come in now? I'd like to explain in person."
The sound of the bathroom door opens, causing Light to turn around, his heart sank when he saw Misa, who was crying uncontrollably.
"Uh, Ryuzaki…I'll call you back. I'll see if I can come in, if not I'll be in tomorrow first thing."
He doesn't wait for L's response, instead he snaps the phone shut and watches still as Misa inches to him slowly.
"I'm so sorry Light…"
She whispers, her voice was so void of her usual chipper self it frightened him.
Misa raises her right hand, showcasing the plastic object. He raises his brows and takes it from her.
"I'm pregnant."
