Kira means killer.
"Your neighbour is… eccentric." He takes off his shoes, one hand on the wall to steady him.
"Eccentric?" She repeats, amused, because that's certainly one way to put it.
Mrs. Kobayashi is a retired widow in her late sixties. She's more than a little paranoid and firmly believes people are out to get her. It's not uncommon to see her peek outside her window with binoculars or have strange deliveries in the middle of the night, huge cardboard boxes filled with metal detectors and hidden cameras.
But once you get passed her initial defenses, which takes a while, she's a lovely lady who feeds you tea and cookies and tells you about all the stuff that happens in front of your apartment when you're at work.
"She's a little wary of strangers." She tells him and wants to snort at her comment. He's obviously not used to it – people not instantly falling head over heels for him. Modesty would do him some good.
"Am I stranger?" He throws at her, with a tilt of his head, bright eyes staring at her. He's pushed himself upright, at least eight inches taller than her in his full height.
She doesn't know much about him, not much, but a lot at the same time.
Kira waits for her daily and follows her home. He sits on her couch and watches movies with her, scatters his notebooks on her coffee table. He carries her groceries and eats her food, drinks her tea.
Kira means killer (the ink that stains his hands is the same as blood and what does it really say about her, that she lets him).
"I don't even know your first name." She tells him, rolling her eyes.
"I don't know yours." He answers easily with an amused smile. "It's Raito – my first name."
She blinks, considers him for a moment and then smiles at the irony.
"Nice to meet you, Light." She holds up her hand and gives him a mocking smile. "I'm Eden."
He takes her hand with a smile that is too wide and too perfect, as if he's just found something pleasant in her name. She doesn't care to know what it is.
Ryuk floats inside the room, materializing through the wall. He licks his fingers.
"That Kobayashi lady has good apples." He tells them, eying their joint hands with a bored look and a raised eyebrow.

'We interrupt this program to bring you a special broadcast.' With a sigh, she shuts down the TV.
"Don't you want to know what that was about?" Kira, Light, asks her.
He's seated on the floor, textbooks she hasn't laid eyes on in years opened in front of him. He's meant to do homework, even she has the feeling that he doesn't actually need to study.
She shakes her head.
"Not at all." She's sprawled on her couch comfortably, Ryuk dozing off where she rests her feet. She hates it, especially since she was actually enjoying the cartoon she was previously watching. "Let's watch a movie."
"Sure." He tells her, twisting his body towards her. She gives him a lazy grin.
"Put it on, please." He rolls his eyes at her, but stands up anyways.
a/n : And history has just been rewritten. I'm tempted to do L's POV just to find out what he thinks about Kira not falling for his plans. What did you think of her name, haha. I find it really funny, Eden and Light. Sorry for the late updates, I'm just been feeling under the weather. Thank you all for your lovely reviews and let me know what you think of her name. Thank you all for reading and I hope you enjoyed.
