((I do not own Magic Kaito or Death Note))
"What time did you say your dad normally gets home?" Light asked, biting Aoko's ear gently. "I could go another round." He explained, moving to nip at her neck.
"It varies, sometime after three, that's for sure…" She panted, her energy spent as she laid beneath the dark-blonde. "B-But I don't think I can-I'm really tired." She confessed. Light merely smirked, moving back up to capture her lips.
"That's okay, you don't need to do anything." He whispered, kissing the side of her face. "Now let me take care of you…"
Knock! Knock!
Light blinked, looking at the front door. Who was visiting Aoko this late at night? It was almost one in the morning! He tried kissing her face again but she pushing him off and feverishly hunting for her clothes.
"It's dangerous to answer the door this late, Aoko-chan, just stay with me..." He tried, catching her arm and nearly succeeding in pulling her back but she slipped out of his arms and quickly dressed, throwing his clothes at him.
Light decided to take the hint and got dressed as well, getting his shirt over his shoulders just as she pulled the door open.
"Kaito?" She blinked at the Magician standing in front of her. "What are you doing over here so late?" She asked.
"Got done with work early so I-…what is he doing over here?" his eyes fell on Light. The other boy yawned, having recently turned on the TV.
"We fell asleep watching TV." He shrugged, "that against the law?"
"…No, I-I guess not." Kaito decided, though he did notice Aoko's clothes looked a little rumpled but he didn't pay much attention to that. Light smirked and then moved over to Aoko, planting a kiss on her lips as if to say she was his.
"I'll see you tomorrow." He stated, ignoring the jealousy he could feel coming from the magician. He vaguely noticed she seemed a little reluctant to kiss back and he told himself to keep an eye on that.
"Y-yeah." Aoko agreed, watching as he left the house.
"You're –dating- that guy now?" Kaito asked as soon as Light was out of earshot. Aoko sighed and moved to the kitchen, leading him away from the living room she probably needed to clean.
"What's it matter to you?" The girl inquired, opening the fridge to find something to snack on.
"I don't like him, there's just something about him that doesn't sit right."
"You're jealous?" Aoko blinked, something akin to happiness starting to swell inside her.
"No I'm not jealous! He's a creep and you can do better." Kaito denied, privately thinking that he was better.
"Oh." The happiness was gone. "Well it's none of you business who I decided to date." She countered. "And what's wrong with a little casual dating? It's not like I'm going to be with him forever." Aoko said angrily, moving to the faucet and turning it on.
"No, but he's a creep, I just feel like you don't know what you're getting into."
"Kaito. Shut up. I'm dating Raito-kun, get over it." She said coldly. The magician debated arguing for several seconds but left the house in silence. Leaving Aoko to deal with a guilty feeling gnawing at her gut.
She stood still for several seconds, trying to get a grip on herself but felt the guilt turn to nausea. She tried to ignore it but before she could stop it she was hanging over the sink, washing the contents of her stomach away.
"How dare he." She wiped her mouth. "I've been dating Raito-kun over a month now and he chooses NOW to notice?" She demanded, becoming sick again.
She got the last bit of bile washed down and shut the sink off, sliding down to a sitting position and covering her face with her hands.
-
"Raito-kun, no… I don't feel well." Aoko tried to push the boy off of her. "Really, I'm going to be sick." Light pulled away from the girl to look her over, she did look a little green.
He rolled off of her and watched as she got up quickly and made for the bathroom, cringing as his phone went off.
"Hai?" He answered, already knowing who was calling him.
"Raito! Misa misses you so much." Misa Amane told him, her voice making him cringe more. "How have you been?" She asked.
"I'm fine, have a test, but that's nothing. Actually, Misa, I have a friend over, she seems to have… had a bit much to drink, I'll have to talk to you later."
"Raito-kun is very thoughtful." Misa commented. "Misa will just call you tomorrow. Misa loves you"
"Ah." He hung up, getting up to check on Aoko, as he figured he probably should.
"…Are you alright?" He asked once she was slumped on the floor, looking extraordinarily pale.
"I-Just stressed, I guess. Kaito's not really being very supportive."
"You need his support?"
"I-it'd be nice to have, but I guess not." She let him help her to her feet.
"Good." Light kissed the side of her face. "If the stress is making you this sick, that's a problem. You can clean up if you want, I'll see if we have anything for dinner."
"Look for an apple." Ryuk put in his two cents. Light rolled his eyes as he shut the door, heading down to the kitchen.
Aoko took a few breaths and looked towards the toilet, becoming sick again. She her eyes starting leak water and flushed the bile down. She wiped her mouth again and slowly stood up and used the sink to clean herself up, privately thinking about how embarrassing it was she got so sick at her boyfriend's house. "Mou..." She sighed, once she was cleaned up.
"Aoko-chan, if you want, there's an unopened toothbrush in the medicine cabinet, you can use my toothpaste." Light called through the door.
"Arigatou." Aoko answered back, opening the cabinet and quickly finding the mentioned tooth brush and toothpaste.
After brushing her teeth three times over she stepped out and headed back to Light's room.
He smirked and gave her a small kiss upon reentry, shutting the door before making the kiss deeper.
"I'm sorry… about getting sick like this." Aoko looked at the ground. Light shrugged, pressing his forehead against hers.
"You don't have a fever, maybe it is stress, and you can use that toothbrush for when you stay over." He told her, kissing her deeply and coaxing her to his bed. All he wanted to do was knock her out and start writing in the death note again, as had become his routine.
Aoko had to be exhausted to be able to sleep, so he did what he could to physically exhaust the girl.
"Are you feeling better now?" He asked, two seconds from pushing her onto the bed.
"Uh-huh." Aoko breathed, feeling him gently shove her down on the bed. He climbed over the girl and pressed passionate kisses against her lips and trailed them down to her neck, his hands reaching up her shirt.
-
"Aoko." Light sighed, standing outside the ladies restroom. "Aoko." He said a bit louder when she didn't responded. "You need to see a doctor. You've been sick like this off and on for the past few weeks." Light had accompanied Aoko to police charity Christmas ball. It was boring, Kuroba and Hakuba were giving him grief, and Aoko got sick. Again. She was always getting sick now a days. Misa was convinced she was a drunk, because that was the best excuse Light could come up with when she called.
"I know…" He heard her say weakly. "I'll go when I have time."
"When you have time? You'll go tomorrow."
"I can't. I have my exit exam tomorrow. I can't miss it."
"Go after."
"I have to study for my entrance exam." Light rolled his eyes, he was glad she was honestly concerned about her grades, he honestly thought she was one of the few who did in Japan, especially these days.
"You need to take a day off and see a doctor." He was not going to have a sick girlfriend who didn't know when to go to the doctor. He'd drag her there himself if he had too.
"If it doesn't go away by the time I take my entrance exam, I promise I'll see a doctor, before they making me take all the series of tests second years have to take." Aoko promised, stepping out of the bathroom.
"If what doesn't go away?" Light froze at the sound of a familiar voice he'd rather not hear and slowly turned around to face the world's greatest detective. Or so people said.
"Ryuuzaki." He greeted the other politely.
"Raito-kun." L acknowledged, chewing lightly on his thumb, dressed in his usual long sleeved white shirt and jeans. He looked rather out of place compared to everyone else. Light was in a tuxedo and Aoko in a purple cock-tail dress.
"My girlfriend, she's been getting sick a lot recently." Light explained.
"Hm." L turned to look Aoko over, stepping up close to her. "Perhaps you should see a doctor then." He stated, still studying her.
"A-ano, it's really uncomfortable with you standing so close to me."
"Aoko-chan, this is Ryuuzaki, a…friend of mine, Ryuuzaki, this is Nakamori Aoko-chan."
"A pleasure." He stepped back a step to shake hands with her. Aoko shook his hand cautiously, watching him carefully. "I envy you Raito-kun, Nakamori-san is very pretty." Aoko blushed and Light wrapped an arm around her shoulder, pulling her closer.
"Ryuuzaki is working on the Kira case." He told the girl.
"Eh? Good luck then, you'll need all you can get." Aoko said to the detective. Light hugged her slightly, wondering if that meant she was a supporter or what.
"…Ah." L watched her closely.
"Sorry Ryuuzaki, but I have to get her back to her father, so he doesn't think we're up to no good, or something." He shrugged.
"Ah, I'll go with you." L decided, Light rolled his eyes but didn't object.
-
"Raito-kun…" Aoko panted, feeling the teen's chest rising and falling against her own.
"Yeah?" He panted back. "Are you feeling sick again?"
"N-no, I was just thinking, about why I'm getting sick, or what c-could be the reason."
"Yeah?" He lifted himself up a little to stare down at her tired face, sure she'd pass out any minute now, but during the last week he had noticed her sex-drive had increased, it wasn't even him starting things anymore, really.
"Well-I was thinking that it might be-" She stopped, staring up at him before yawning. "It could be…" She was starting to fall asleep.
Light smirked slightly and kissed her forehead. "Tell me later, you need to sleep now." He told her.
"Mmhm." She agreed, asleep in seconds.
Light stared at her a second longer and pulled himself off of her, covering her with the blankets and moved to put his clothes back on.
"I thought she'd never fall asleep." He moved to his desk and pulled out the Death Note, opening to the page he left off on and started to write names down, having his computer opened to the police records.
He twitched in annoyance when Ryuk chuckled. Setting down the pen he turned to face the shinigami as pleasantly as possible. "What is it?"
"You should have listened to what she had to say."
"What she has to say is not any concern of mine." Light stated, turning to write again, pushing the pen a little harder then normal. "Aoko is a tool. She offers me an alibi and is the extra element to make L think I'm not perfect. That's all. Anything she has to say I don't care about."
Ryuk chuckled again and Light tuned him out, though in the back of his mind, he was curious since Ryuk thought he should have listened.
-
"Thank you for coming with me Keiko, it really means a lot." Aoko told her pigtailed friend as she stepped out of the connivance store with her.
"I don't mind doing it." Keiko promised. "Did you want me to stay with you?" She had noticed Aoko seemed shaky, and Keiko really couldn't blame her.
"A-actually, if you could-I mean-There's a heist tonight, are you sure you want to?"
"Aoko, I'm your best friend, of course I want to, forget Kid, this is more important."
Aoko didn't know what to say, she was touched. "…Arigatou…" she finally said after awhile. Keiko smiled and the two girls headed towards the Nakamori household.
"Ah! Nakamori-san." Aoko heard a vaguely familiar voice.
"Hai?" She turned to face Ryuuzaki.
"What a nice coincidence, running into you again." He approached the girls and glanced at the bag Aoko had in her shaky hand. Aoko narrowed her eyes and hid it behind her back. "What did you buy?"
"A-A birthday present for Raito-kun." She came up with quickly. L looked her over, figuring she was lying, either that or it was a very cheap present, or possibly a practical joke, but Light was not one for jokes.
"Ah, actually, I was just wanting to speak with you, do you have a minute?" Aoko looked over at Keiko nervously.
"I-I actually had something to do…" she gripped the bag a little tighter. L noticed her tense up and wondered briefly if it was because of him. He took a small step back to allow her a bit more room.
"It's about an important case, I can give you a ride home and we can talk on the way."
"B-but what about Keiko-chan?" L looked over at the other girl and then back To Aoko, making note that he was making her more uncomfortable.
"It's okay Aoko, just call me when you get home, we can take-take care of this then." The light brown-haired girl promised. Aoko sighed and nodded.
"Thank you Keiko."
"…Do you want me to hold on to that?" He gestured to the bag.
"N-no, that's alright, it's not like there's anything bad in here." She laughed nervously. Keiko offered a small smile and nodded.
"Okay, good luck then, I'll see you later." She headed off. Aoko took a deep breath and followed L to the waiting limousine. Considering the part of the town they were in, Aoko couldn't help the sneaking suspicion L had been following her. She gripped the bag tighter.
L opened the door for her and she slid inside, L got in after, closing the door and telling the driver, Watari, to start driving.
"So, Nakamori-san. How long have you been seeing Raito-kun?" He inquired.
"A-about a couple of months, I guess." She answered with a shrug.
"Only a few months?" L raised an eyebrow, "And when did you decide to start having a physical relationship with him?"
"Eh?!" Aoko gripped the bag sitting her lap tightly, her knuckles were starting to turn white. "P-please don't assume those things of me!"
"Nakamori-san, I should be honest with you, I suspect Raito-kun of being Kira. I would appreciate it if you would be honest with me. What you say could possibly clear his name." Though, L privately doubted it would.
"Y-you think Raito-kun is…?" She blinked and shook her head. "R-Raito-kun and I haven't done anything yet, and besides, I'm waiting for marriage, I do have some self respect." She defended herself. L stared at her for a long moment.
"Uso." He finally stated, the word biting like ice to the poor girl. "Nakamori-san is always lonely. The only reason you started dating Raito was because it would give you company. In actuality you have feelings for Kuroba Kaito, and possibly something for the detective Hakuba Saguru."
"I-" Aoko tried.
"But they're never around, are they?"
"N-no, but-"
"And Raito is. When he tried to farther your relationship you didn't object because you didn't want him to lose interest. You were willing to sacrifice your innocence if it meant you could have his company."
"N-"
"Nakamori-san. Please. Answer my questions honestly, you might have to rely on Raito-kun later and what you tell me will go into deciding if he is or isn't Kira."
"…Hai." Aoko hung her head.
"When did you and Raito-kun become physically involved?"
"…Maybe a week after we started dating." She confessed, trembling as she realized how bad that sounded.
"And how often would you say you're around him?"
"Almost all the time, I mean, I have to leave his house in the mornings, and I still have school, but other then that, I'm always with him."
"Ah… I see." L said thoughtfully. "How often would you say the two of sleep together?" Aoko blushed hard, twisting the bag in her hands.
"A-almost every night since we started."
"…night…" L made a mental note. "Does Raito fall asleep before you?"
"..No, I'm normally the first to fall asleep…" she explained.
"So it is possible Raito is purposefully exhausting you so he has time to be Kira and use you as a partial alibi?" Aoko took a quick breath and looked at the floor.
"I-I don't think so… I think he's pretty tired too, so I doubt he has the energy." L narrowed his eyes, she was lying, and he knew it.
"Couldn't he be acting?"
"A-ano, I really think he's not, and I-I'm not feeling very well, can we pull over?"
L blinked and nodded, having Watari pull over in front of Aoko's house. "Thank you for cooperating." He told her as she hurried out of the car and made it to the grass before becoming sick.
"Nakamori-san…" L winced, getting out to give her the bag she'd left in the emergency of needing to throw up.
"A-arigatou." She took it quickly and hurried inside, fumbling with the key.
"…Raito-kun is in trouble. It appears the real Kami-sama has decided to step in." He had seen what Aoko had bought, he saw it through the white plastic bag.
-
"Raito-kun… we need to talk." Aoko said seriously when he let her in his room.
"About what?" The college student asked, moving to sit at his desk. Aoko shifted her weight, not sure how to tell him what she needed too. "L's been making you uncomfortable?"
"N-no, Ryuuzaki is… he hasn't done anything."
"If you're really bothered by him following you around and asking you personal questions, I'll ask him to stop."
"No!" She snapped suddenly, wincing at her own tone. "I-I took a t-test to day." She muttered. Light raised an eyebrow, she was obviously unhappy, in fact she looked like she had been crying, extremely pale too…
"I take it you didn't do so well?"
"I-I didn't get the desired results, no."
"I'm sure you can retake it." He pushed it aside.
"I-I probably could, but I don't think it'd change anything."
"With as much as you study? I'm sure you'll pass the next time around." He said dismissively.
"R-Raito-kun, it wasn't that kind of test." She told him, starting to become annoyed with him for not listening. Light blinked, Aoko had never been angry with him before. This was new.
"Oh? Then what kind was it?"
"It was-you know what? I don't want to tell you. I'm going home." She turned to head out but he intervened.
"Sleep here. You've done it a million times by now and it's too late for you to be out alone." He told her, locking the door. He didn't want her leaving, L had talked to her and he had to know what she had said.
"It-fine." She sighed sitting on his bed a minute before curling under the covers and drifting off to sleep.
-
Aoko woke up to the sound of a pen on paper, writing furiously. It made her nauseous, her stomach curling and twisting uncomfortably, she was sure she was going to be sick. She sat up quickly and watched Light write furiously, his monitor was on and the internet was opened up to the police records.
'While I'm sleeping huh?' Aoko thought to herself. "…Raito-kun." She said after a long moment.
Light cringed and turned to face her, his face carefully blank. "Yes, Aoko?"
"Y-you… You are Kira-san, aren't you?"
"L got to you?"
"N-no, well... maybe." Light let out an annoyed sigh and studied her nervous little face.
"Well I'm not." He stated, turning back away from her and starting to write again. 'Nakamori Aoko, dies in accident at Kid heist.' He thought, writing in the first character of her name.
"No…" Something told her to stop him, that he was going to kill her somehow. "No!" She tackled him, trying to yank the pen away.
Light growled in annoyance as the pen was ripped from his grasp and he was knocked to the ground, Aoko on top of him.
"Get off." He shoved her roughly, trying to grab a new pen. "What's wrong Aoko-chan? Are you afraid to die?" He asked cruelly.
Aoko stared at him a second before knocking his penholder off the desk, spilling the pens all over the room.
"Damn it." Light cursed, going to get another.
"Raito-kun! Please listen to me!" She tackled him again.
"For what? So you can go on and on about how you don't want to die, how you're too young?" He shoved her off again.
"I'm Pregnant!" She bellowed. Light froze. Whatever reason he had expected her to give him it definitely wasn't that.
He narrowed his eyes at her, trying to debate if it was just a weak attempt to stop him. But now that he thought about it, he really should have seen this coming, she had morning sickness, that was obvious, and the sudden hostility she held toward him earlier.
Then there was that test. Not the kind you pass or fail and the results wouldn't change even with a retake. She had taken a pregnancy test.
Did he want the baby though? It'd get him in some serious trouble, and there was the superstition an unexpected pregnancy was a punishment from God. Ha.
God… Gods couldn't die, they were immortal, and Light, though he hated to admit it, was mortal. But he could pass the note on, and society would see Kira as immortal.
"….You tell anyone, and I mean anyone, I will kill you." He told the girl, standing up and helping her to her feet.
Aoko could only nod mutely, feeling a bout of sickness coming up. Light must have sensed it, because he led her to the bathroom and held her hair back for her. Nakamori Aoko, dies in childbirth.
