Hello wonderful readers!
Hopefully you enjoyed the filler chapter:) This chapter was a fun one to write although also quite difficult as I am not someone who is good at writing fluff realistically.
So here's hoping that this chapter at least makes you smile a bit^_^
Gasp, Blind Faith will be over in just three more chapters! I don't know what I'm going to do with myself! I always look forward to the weeks after I post the next chapter when I get to hear what all you wonderful readers think.
The next chapters will be much longer then this one and the last one since there two are more fillers then anything, bridging between the end of the cannon story and the next couple of chapters dealing with...teenagers!
Still going for a hundred reviews by the time this story is over so don't forget to tell me what you thought of this chapter!

Faith- 19
L- 24
It had been just barely a year since the case had come to a close and Faith still had yet to move home. She, Watari and Ryuzaki had fallen into a easy pattern and every day that she stayed with them she wanted to leave less.
Faith had her name now on the wait list for surgery in hopes of returning her sight but still had a ways to go. Ryuzaki had offered to get her bumped to the top of the list but she had declined. She didn't think it was fair to all the others who had waited much longer then she had.
All that aside Ryuzaki had been acting strangely and she was starting to get concerned.
Faith climbed out of the shower and quickly changed before rubbing her head with the towel before walking out of the bathroom. She tossed her pj's into her laundry bin and grabbed her brush before heading down to the monitoring room where she knew Ryuzaki would be.
She jogged down the stairs before walking over to where she knew he would be sitting and taking a seat on the couch.
"Your hair is wet."
Faith laughed.
"Well since I just had a shower I would hope so."
Ryuzaki have a soft huff and then she heard him stand and come over to sit next to her.
"Faith, do you ever plan to marry one day?"
Faith went still for a moment and thought about the question.
"I don't know. I mean I would love to one day get married but it depends on the other person. Right now I'm more than happy as is and don't expect anything else."
Ryuzaki hummed in thought.
"Why do you ask?"
Ryuzaki shifted in his seat for a moment.
"I am ready to go out and solve cases all over the world."
Faith nodded sadly. She knew that Ryuzaki would get restless eventually and want to go back to solving international cases. It would be hard for her when he left though.
"What does that have to do with marriage and me?"
"I do not wish to leave you behind. I was thinking...would you be willing to marry me and come with me on my cases?"
Faith felt her jaw drop in shock.
"Wh-what?!"
"Will you marry me and come with me on my cases?" He repeated.
"Your asking me to marry you?"
Ryuzaki was quiet for a moment.
"I understand if you do not wish to leave your family behind or if you are not ready for such a big step. If you say no nothing will change, we will continue to date unless you wish to break up."
Faith stared in shock in his direction. He wanted to marry her!
"Faith?"
"Yes! I would love to marry you!" Faith cried before reaching over and wrapping her arms around his neck, hugging him tightly.
Ryuzaki laughed softly and returned the embrace before letting go. She released him and sat back, knowing that the grin on her face would be massive.
"Have you talked to my family yet?"
"Yes. They are all fine with this."
Faith grinned and half bounced in place.
"I never thought you would propose to me."
Ryuzaki wrapped one arm around her.
"Neither did I. But I did, and you said yes. I assume this makes us engaged now correct?"
Faith laughed.
"Yes. We are now engaged."
The wedding was a quiet affair. Faith's family attended of course as well as the task force members. and Watari did the ceremony. She had convinced Ryuzaki to invite Misa who she had become close to despite the fact that Misa had been Kira. She also convinced him to invite Wedy and Aibar.
After the ceremony and dinner Ryuzaki surprised Faith by taking her to Paris, France for their honeymoon.
Once they returned from their two week honeymoon Ryuzaki restarted his solving of cases, making their penthouse in Japan their home base of sorts where they lived between cases that took them out of Japan and while he was solving smaller cases.
It was easier then Faith had anticipated to share a room since she had been living in the penthouse with Ryuzaki and Watari for so long before getting married and moving into one room.
Once thing she highly enjoyed about being married is Ryuzaki made sure to come to bed and cuddle with her while she drifted off to sleep at least once a week. Often they would talk about random things and Faith found it to become on her favourite time of the week.
One of those such conversations had taken one night as Faith entered the bedroom with a Braille book, already in her pj's and had slipped beneath the covers to read.
Suddenly the bathroom door opened and she smelled a faint hint of the minty shampoo that Ryuzaki used.
"Ready for bed already?"
"Yes. You know, it will never cease to amaze me that there is a guy capable of taking longer then Light in the shower. You had to be in there for over a hour at least." Faith teased.
Ryuzaki chuckled and pecked Faith on the lips before she heard him climb into the bed. Faith giggled and slid over next to him, nestling down under the covers and curling into Ryuzaki's warm side. He had taken to the habit of not bothering with shirts to bed which sometimes drove Faith nuts when he didn't bother towling his torso off and got the covers all wet. Luckily he had dried off so Faith didn't get water on her pj's.
"How was your day?" He asked quietly.
"It was good. Light and I left early and spent the day together just hanging out. I also got to meet the girl he's been going on about. She's a real sweetheart and the perfect balance for him."
"Oh?"
"Yeah. He's been a mess trying to get up the courage to ask her out. It's really quite funny to see my suave brother acting like a stuttering schoolgirl with a crush. It's particularly funny when Light and I are walking out of the class and someone comes over to talk to Light and catches sight of my wedding ring. They all end up teasing Light that I'm married and he's still single even with all the girls who would be dying to go out with him."
Ryuzaki chuckled again and ran his fingers absently through her hair.
"Faith, have you ever wanted to have children?"
Faith thought for a moment.
"I don't know. I mean I've never really thought about it before. I guess it would depend. Why? Are you wanting to have kids?"
Ryuzaki shifted slightly, his other arm coming to rest lightly over her waist.
"Well, I've been thinking about whether maybe you would want to perhaps adopt. The orphanage I was raised at allows people to adopt and I have three boys in particular that I've always wanted to take in. I never did because I didn't want to take them out if a place where they had both male and female influence. All children need a mother figure or even just older sister figure of sorts in their life and if I had taken them in I would have depraved them of that."
Faith hummed to let him know she was listening as she drew lazy patters on his chest.
"I wouldn't be apposed to that idea. The idea of taking in kids that don't have families actually makes me really happy to be honest. As long as they were old enough to understand my blindness and rules that needed to be followed to prevent me from getting hurt."
"The ones I'm thinking of are old enough to understand that."
"Then I think I would be more then willing to do that one day. I think that I would eventually enjoy having some kids around the house." Faith said with a soft smile as she closed her eyes and rested her head on Ryuzaki's shoulder.
As Faith drifted off to sleep in time to her husbands breathing she couldn't help but think that she was so glad things had finally calmed down in their life since the Kira case.
Which is why it was really to bad it wouldn't last.
Do you have a guess on what sort of chaos is coming next chapter? Tell me in your review! Those who are correct will get a cyber cookie and I'll mention them next chapter:)
So what did you think? Reviews are welcome! Flames shall be laughed at, posted for others to laugh at, and ignored as I continue the story.
