My Love With The Greatest Detective
Chapter 12: The Sickness
Asako's Pov:
It was still late at night before L came up with Light still handcuffed to him.
There was a knocked at my door and I got up and saw L and Light. I let them in and they sat on the couch and I sat on the chair.
They told me everything they found out about the notebook from the Shinigami.
"Well good thing we go it before anyone else could use it." I said.
"Yes." Light said.
Then I got up from the couch and sat next to L
"I'm glad you keep your promise like you said." I whispered in his ear.
"I always keep my promises. Especially to you." L whispered back and placed his hand on his heart.
He toke his hand off his heart and gently grabbed my chin and kissed my forehead. He gave me a weird look.
"What?" I wondered.
"Asako do you feel ok?" L asked as he placed his hand on my forehead, "Because you feel hot to me."
"I don't know." I said. "I feel fine, but it is a little hot in here."
"I don't know Asako." L said moving his hand away, "Why don't we go to the bathroom and take your temperature?"
"I guess." I answered him.
L got up from the couch, then Light, and then L helped me up from the couch and we headed slowly to the bathroom.
Me and L went into the bathroom, L closed the door on Light so we where alone. L took the automatic thermometer out from under the sink and put it in my ear.
We waited a minute till it binged.
"Asako you temperature is at 103. You must have gotten something not long ago." L said.
"I guess so. I have not been doing anything recently. I don't know what I could have caught." I said.
"I think you should go lay in bed for a while and see if you feel any better." L suggested.
"Maybe I should." I said, "I am starting to feel a little sick and a little weak to. Help me up."
I held out my hand, L grabbed it and helped me up. I started to feel a little weak at the knees and almost fell but I grabbed the counter.
"You ok?" L asked.
"Yea. I'm fine." I said.
L put his arm under my arm so my arm was around his shoulder. L open the door
"Light can you help me with her?" L asked him.
"Sure." Light said.
Light put his arm under mine also so my other arm was over his shoulder. They carried me to my room and sat me on the bed.
"Thank you" I said as I laid down.
L pulled the covers over me and kissed my forehead again.
"I hope you feel better in the morning. Maybe its just because its late." L said to me, "Get some rest and I will come see you in the morning."
"Ok" I said in a ruff voice and got comfortable in my bed.
L kissed me one more time and they left my room.
I tried to go to sleep but I was so hot. I moved the covers around so that I only had one blanket on. My stomach then started to hurt. I wrapped my arms around my stomach as I felt it tighten. I moaned softly for a little bit as the mussels tensed. I started to cry a little because it hurt so much. I wept and cried more. I coiled up into a ball under the cover.
It was not labor because it was not my time yet so I must have cough something lately to make me feel like this. Making me fell hot and sticky, making my stomach hurt so much that it felt like I was going to be ripped apart.
I held my arms around my my stomach as I felt the baby moving around. I knew that he was uncomfortable just as much as I was. It was probably really hot inside the womb then normal and there must have been a little pressure on him from my stomach mussels tightening.
That night I ended up crying my self to sleep because of the pain.
"Asako?" I heard someone say.
I was awoken by the voice of L in my ear.
I was still coiled up in a ball under my covers with my arms wrapped around my stomach. My stomach was still tight and hurt a little.
"Morning." L whispered.
"Morning." I said softly.
When I was fully awake I toke my arms out from under the covers and straitened myself out. I saw L knelling on a chair with Light next to him but back a little further.
"Asako," L said in a wondering voice and placed a hand on my arm. "How did you sleep? Do you feel any better?"
"I didn't sleep that well. I cried myself to sleep last night because I was in so much pain. And I do not feel well at all. I feel worse compared to last night." I said.
"What hurts then?" L asked.
"Well I feel week in my legs and arms. I feel hot and my stomach hurts a lot with my mussels tensing. Last night I felt the baby move around a lot from him being so uncomfortable just like I was." I said.
"It does?" L wondered and placed a hand on my stomach that was under the cover.
"Yes" I answered, "It does, a lot."
Then L moved his hand away and looked at his feet on the chair. I saw a tear roll down his check, he was crying, because of the pain I was feeling.
I managed to sit up in bad, even though its really hard to do. I put my back against the headboard and reached out to L. I managed to place my hand on his that was on his knee.
"L" I said trying to look down to see his face, "What's wrong?"
"You being in so much pain." He said sadly and lifting his head a little, "I did not realize that you where in so much pain scene last night. I should have seen it."
"L" I said lifting his head with my hand. "Its ok I will get better soon. I know I will."
"I hope you do." He said, "I don't know how much I can take of you being in pain."
I moved my hand away from his head and managed to lay back down on the bed.
The whole day L stayed by my side. He never moved from the side of my bed. Every once and a while he would check my temperature, which stayed at 102 the whole day. He took care of me and got me what I wanted. He got me food and stuff to drink, even though I didn't really feel like eating. I knew I had to eat something for the baby so I managed to eat what I could.
As it got dark and I got a little tired.
"I'm going to go to bed I'm kind of tired." I said.
"Are you sure? Will you be alright?" L asked.
"Yes I will be fine." I told him.
"Alright. I'll come and see you tomorrow." L said.
"Ok." I said.
He leaned down and kissed me. He left his forehead on mine.
"I love you." L said.
"I love you too." I said.
He placed his one hand on my stomach, that was cover by the blankets.
"Goodnight." He L said.
"Night." I said.
He gave me one last kiss. He then left with Light leading the way.
I got comfy in my bed. As I tried to fall asleep the pain came back again. My mussels tightened and I got really hot again. I curled back up into a ball just like last night and wrapped my arms around me. The baby moved as well from being uncomfortable.
Then I cried softly to sleep again.
L's Pov: (A/N: Really OOC then normal.)
I was leaving Asako in her pain and I couldn't do anything about it. I wish I knew what was wrong with her. I don't know what could make her stomach hurt so much and even make the baby uncomfortable as well. I could not understand it. It made me so sad to see her like this.
Once we said good night, me and Light left Asako's apartment and walked to the elevator.
We got in while Light pressed the button to go to the basement. Light just stood there while I had my head down and was looking at the ground. Thinking of what has been going on brought tears to my eyes. Soon I couldn't hold them back anymore.
The silence was lifted when I feel to my knees and cried.
"Ryuzaki what's the matter?" Light asked as he looked down at me.
"Its my heart." I said "My heart hurts from all the pain she is feeling. I don't know what to do. I can't do anything to help her pain. If she died I would not forgive myself, I would probably die with her."
I still knelt there crying until Light grabbed me by the arm roughly and lifted me up to my feet.
"Ryuzaki," Light said. "You have to stay strong in order for her to get better. If you don't have faith then she will never get better."
Tears slowly started to stop from my eyes.
"Your right Light. I have to get a hold of myself unless she will never be better and I will not wallow in self pity." I said.
I whipped the tears from my eyes from my eyes.
"Can we just say this never happened? That you didn't see me like this?" L asked.
"Sure." Light said.
I nodded.
Soon the elevator stopped and we exited and went back to work.
Asako's Pov:
I woke up by myself in the morning. I knew L would eventually come up to see me so I managed to sit up in bed with my back against the backboard and just stayed there for a little bit.
I wanted to see if I could get out of bed because I feel a little stronger today then yesterday. So I toke the covers off and slowly put my feet to the floor. I used my nightstand for support as I stood up.
I eventually found my balance and tried to take a step, which did not work well and fell back onto the bed softly.
Even though I was able to stand I was not able to walk yet.
As I laid back in bed I heard a knock on my bedroom door.
"Come in." I said.
Soon L walked in, by himself! Light was not with him, he toke the handcuffs off. L sat down in the same chair as he does.
"Why are the handcuffs gone?" I asked.
"We caught Kira," He said, "So it was time for us to take them off."
"Oh" I said. "That's good. I did not like him following you around everywhere."
"Yes," he said, "I know."
After a while we just sat in silence.
"So how do you feel today?" L asked.
"I feel better then yesterday. Although my stomach still hurts just a little." I told him.
"I'm sure you will be ok." L said.
"Before you came up and when I woke up I tried to walk but all I could do is stand up, but I can not walk yet." I said.
"So you're getting stronger then?" He asked.
"Yes," I agreed "I guess I am."
"Well that's good" He said.
"How does the baby feel? Do you know?" L asked.
"Well," I started "I have not felt him yet today so I'm not sure."
After I said that L lifted the blanket away and placed his hand on my stomach. He left it there to see if he could feel anything. Then I placed my hand on my stomach to and waited for the baby to move or kick but felt noting. We looked at each other and we both got a worried look on are faces.
L lifted my shirt and put his head to my large stomach and listened.
L sighed in relief.
"Its ok. I can hear his heartbeat I think he is just sleeping that's all." L said.
L keep his head on my stomach as he continued to listen to the baby's heartbeat.
I smiled down at him and I ran my hand threw L's hair.
He smiled up at me and rubbed my stomach as he still left his head on my stomach.
"You find a new spot?" I asked.
"It's vary comfy. Plus I know you like it. Don't deny." L said.
"Yea. I do like it." I said.
He kissed my stomach.
"I love you both." L said.
"I love you too. I'm sure are son will love you just as much." I said.
L nodded.
After a while he sat up and put my shirt back down.
L got up and laid on the other side of me. He pulled me into his arms and hugged me.
We embraced each other for a while and L keep kissing me on the forehead. We just cuddled with each other.
After a while L toke my temperature again and it actually went down today. I had a 102 yesterday and it went down to a 99 today, so I actually was getting better.
"L?" I started.
"Yea?" He asked.
"I want to get up. I want to try and go in the kitchen." I told him.
"Alright if you say so." L said.
L got up and to my side of the bed. I got to the side of my bed with my feet touching the floor.
I reached my hand out to him. L took it and helped me up.
"I will stay right behind you. If you start to fall I will catch you." L said.
"Alright." I said.
I took a couple steeps. I lost my balance for a second, but L helped me.
Soon I managed to get into the kitchen. L let go of me and I use the counter for support.
"Well that went better then I thought." I said.
"Yea. Do you want something?" L asked.
"Yea." I said.
I looked threw the cupboards and got some pretzels out. I went to the fridge and got the milk and put it in a big glass. L watched me as I ate.
"At least you got your appetite back." L said.
"Ahum." I said, my mouth full of pretzels.
L smiled at me and wrapped his arms around my waist from behind, his hands staying on my stomach.
I looked back at him and smiled. He kissed my neck and rubbed my stomach softly. We both felt a kick come from my stomach.
"Well I guess he's happy to get more food now." L said.
"I guess so." I said.
I finished my milk and ate more pretzels.
"Ok. I'm done. I want to get back to bed." I said.
"Alright. I'll be right behind you." L said.
I managed to make it all the way to my bedroom with out falling or losing my balance. When I got in my room L put his arm around me for extra support.
I sat on my bed for a while and L sat next to me instead of on the chair and toke my temperature again witch was back to it normal temperature, 98.6.
It was dark outside soon and it was time for L to go back downstairs and me to go to bed.
"Looks like I'm going to have to leave soon." L said.
"Do you have to?" I asked.
L stood from the bed.
"Yes I'm sorry." L said.
"Can't you stay the night?" I asked.
L sat on my side of the bed.
"As much as I would love too, but they will need me downstairs." L said.
I nodded sadly.
"Don't worry you'll see me later. I promise." L said.
I pulled L into a hug and L kissed my forehead. We put are foreheads together. L laid a hand on my stomach and he held it there for a moment. Soon we both felt a strong kick. It hurt a little.
L looked down at my stomach and rubbed it softly.
"That was a big one." L said.
"It was. It hurt a little." I said.
He looked up at me.
"Ever time he wakes up he is always active all the time. I always like to feel him move around under my fingers. It actually makes me remember that there is actually a human, growing in here. And that half of me is a part of you." L said with a smile.
"Yes I know,." I said, "Its actually a nice felling to actually have someone inside you for so long and to actually have it moving around is the best felling in the world. To know that your baby is right here."
I placed my hand on top of L's.
"Its just so amazing how life works." L said.
I nodded.
L kissed my forehead again then got up from the bed. I laid down and he put the covers over top of me
"Goodnight." L said.
"Goodnight." I said.
L smiled and left my room. I got comfy in bed and fell asleep in no time.
In the morning I was better, much better actually. I was felling better then I ever, I was 100% better. L came to see me but we did not do much, just cuddled with each other.
After I was better everything went back to normal, for now.
