A/N: I am being way too stupid I mixed up the chapters and put chapter fifteen as this chapter I am so so sorry about that.

Chapter Fourteen: Shocking Problems
Light's POV
'Why does Soichiro make me do this? Then again he told me to get a girlfriend on the phone' I thought as I released her and sat on my bed reading a book again. I gave her a piece of Ryuk's Death Note and she was very pleasant with him "hello, pleasure is mine" I heard him say as I handed him an apple.
"Yes" I said when she asked me if I knew how to kill a Shinigami, I winced at the question as well prompting her to say 'oh' in a depressed tone. "Can you call me Tsuki Hon instead?" I asked and she nodded happily before talking about Rem and other Shinigami which I ignored since I know everything about them anyway.
I explained to her what Soichiro told me even though I know it won't go well with his plan before I made her promise to keep it a secret and she did, I was glad for the moment until she mentioned something that made a shiver go up and down my spine. When I explained why we can't go on a date I almost growled at her for believing false rumors "L is solitary and can't trust easily, it would be harder to trust a model he doesn't know" I said making her nod.
"This isn't a game alright? You'll be risking your life so you can't do that" I said putting my hands on her shoulders ignoring the pain until I noticed the thin lines of smoke before I cautiously pulled them away. 'This is why I can't date girls' I said in my head as I looked at the blisters on my hands and the red on her shoulders which is a blush.
As I let go she started asking if I've felt love at first sight "yes" I said but it was for L, a male, not a female like she means. Then she started rambling things that were preposterous "guess your popularity has increased" I heard Ryuk comment and snicker before I glare at him.
"You and I both know I can't kill her and I can't be killed Rem" I said before Mrs. Yagami knocked on the door "yes mother?" I said before she walked in. "yes of course, I lost track of time studying sorry" I answered before we both left the house, Misa saying goodbye to Mrs. Yagami and Sayu.
"Suicide" is a valid cause of death. Basically all humans are thought to possess the possibility to commit suicide. It is, therefore, not something "unbelievable" to think of.
Whether the cause of the individual's death is either a suicide or accident, if the death leads to the death of more than the intended, the person will simply die of a heart attack. This is to ensure that other lives are not influenced.
"I need to take a shower" I said and quickly ran to the bathroom ignoring Mrs. Yagami asking if I've already taken a shower which of course the answer is yes. When I was done I realized I forgot to grab clothes because of this I walked into my room with only a towel around my waist.
When I got dressed I looked Misa up again seeing her updated modeling photos which annoyed me because of the comments which are entirely false 'she's so beautiful even gay men will fall for her' one had said making e *tch* at it. The next morning I asked Mrs. Yagami and Sayu to not say anything about me studying with Misa including her forcing me to be her boyfriend.
"Wow, I'm impressed you got a model to be your girlfriend" I heard Sayu say and I almost growled at her "I don't really have a choice" I said earning confused expressions from them both. "Father said I needed to find a girlfriend and she suggested it last night" I explained getting a disapproving look from Mrs. Yagami and a pout from Sayu.
As I twirled my pen I heard Mrs. Takada say something making me smile at her "I love looking at you, your conversations always hook me, and I don't have to dumb anything down for you" I said gaining a few guys attention which I enjoy a lot. I almost shivered again when I felt a pair of eyes on me like the cursed day with Mr. Penber.
"Hello, sorry I'm late" I said putting my bag down hearing that a tape from Misa arrived not too long ago which means I'm too early. L says that from the tape he thinks they've met already and I think the same but only cause of the wording since I know they have yet to.
"Kira seems quite care…" I tried to say before I looked to Soichiro to see he was glaring at me so I stopped talking and pulled out my book again "What was that Light?" I heard L ask but I said it was nothing. L said he doesn't suspect me of being Kira which I was glad for before Mr. Yagami spoke.
"How do you mean?" I heard him say and I cringed at the force in his tone, L explained his reasoning and I cringed again at his thoughts of me wanting him killed. "T-That isn't true Ryuzaki" I said cursing myself for stuttering "Light are you alright?" I heard Matsuda ask as he handed me a napkin making my eyes go wide. "Yeah I'm fine this book is just emotional" I said hiding my face behind my book "I don't have a reason to want Ryuzaki dead, I don't have a reason to want anyone dead" I said glad that my voice was back to normal.
"That's a shame because I feel that you're the first friend I ever had" I heard L say feeling my heart stop for four seconds which worried me since I know I have heart problems despite being a Shinigami. "How can you have heart problems?" I heard Ryuk ask and I know Mr. Yagami heard because he came over and asked about it.
"I can't die from it, blame Ryuzaki" I said knowing everyone heard me say it causing me to close my mouth "what did Mr. Asahi ask Light?" I heard L ask and I continued reading as if I didn't hear him. "Light?" I heard L ask in a firmer tone making me jump "nothing, he just asked why I needed to go to the hospital earlier today" I lied as I turned the page.
"I do feel the same Ryuzaki and think we should hang out outside of work again" I said hiding the blush behind my book when Ryuk sniggered at me for said blush when L mentioned going to Izanagi (1) café again, which I was very pleased about. As I walked home reading my book, or at present holding it in front of me not reading a single word, Ryuk asked me if I was happy "of course I am!" I yelled forgetting I was being followed.
"I hate that I can't hear bells signaling that I'm going to die, I hate that no matter what I do I can't die" I said aloud rubbing the tears in my eyes away as I rambled deciding to make an apple float despite that being part of the reason I'm rambling. Right when I was able to compose myself again I heard Misa come up from behind me and I turned around just in time to fall on my back almost hitting my head on the ground.
"You might as well come over" I said smiling sympathetically to the couple who witnessed everything "I'm doing this because it's convenient remember?" I said noticing a man behind a lamp pole. "Yes yes I know because your father wants you to date a model" I heard her say before we started walking towards my house picking up a confused 'what?' from the tailing investigator.
"Welcome" I heard Mrs. Yagami say as Misa walked in and Sayu say that she saw Misa in a lot of magazines "can you make some tea please?" I asked I asked as I walked up the stairs and shut my door. "Misa?" I asked in a stern tone making the tense atmosphere intensify "yes Light?" I heard her ask and I turned around punching the wall in front of me making a dent which I feel terrible for and scaring everyone in the room.
"Did you even think of the possibility that I was being followed?" I asked removing my hand from the wall "n-no I didn't, are you?" she asked stuttering and I grabbed my book forcing myself to calm down. "Yes I am" I said stabilizing my tone and heart beat in the process "why?" she asked me and I sighed turning the page.
"Don't know and I don't care, in fact I'm glad" I said knowing I was going into hysterics "Light calm down you'll get a heart attack that way" I heard Ryuk say and saw Rem look at me oddly. "Yes Rem I have heart problems is that so wrong?" I asked thinking of something to get my heart rate down "Light! Misa needs to go home now" I heard Mrs. Yagami say and I led Misa to the door.
A/N: Hello again I am so so sorry about this chapter, I finished writing this on March 2, 2016 at 10:51 P.M.
1) When I looked up Japanese gods this one came up as the god of creation and life and that's the one I wanted for this.
In this episode it doesn't look like Light truly wants L dead, that's what I think anyway.
