A.N. Hey everybody! Sorry it's been so long..writer's block kinda sucks. However, I am definitely continuing with this one! I know we're all sad about this, but I'd just like to add, I don't own Death Note or anything. Which sucks. But I know you're all bored with this, so I give you the long awaited...CHAPTER-FREAKING-SEVEN!!!
Three days later...
"Yoki? You seriously fell asleep...here? Wake up!"
The sound of Ryuuzaki's voice roused Noyoki from her rest. She opened her eyes to find herself draped in an unsightly way across one of the couches. Well...across wasn't the best word; she was mostly hanging from the small couch, her fingers touching the cold metal floor. A smile flashed across her face, and she saw it mirrored in his. He went to lift her fully onto the couch. As his strong arms wrapped around her small frame, she felt a light blush begin to tint her cheeks. Luckily, he didn't notice. She relaxed and started to let herself drift off again.
Just as she was about to slip into unconsciousness, the door of the office flew open, hitting the wall with a bang. Ryuuzaki jumped up, whirling around from his computer screen, trying to figure out who was there and if there was danger. Noyoki, however, twitched and fell off the couch with a thump, letting out a small 'ow!' as she hit the floor. For the slightest moment, Ryuuzaki was distracted. Then, seeing she was alright, he turned again to the doorway.
"Who are you, and how did you ge-..." Ryuuzaki stopped in the middle of his sentence. He seemed incapable of speech. His mouth moved, but no sound came out. A gunshot rang out, echoing in the metal room. Noyoki screamed as Ryuuzaki fell to his knees, clutching his chest. She got to him just as he was about to hit the floor. Tears ran down her face, landing on his wrinkled white shirt. He gasped for breath, his eyes trying to focus on her face. "Yo-...Yoki...don't c-...cry...It's...okay..." His head rested on her arm as he slipped into semiconsciousness. The door slammed behind her, but she didn't even notice. She ripped off one of the sleeves of her jacket and pressed it firmly into the wound, staunching the blood flow. She lowered her head to his chest, trying frantically to find a heartbeat. She could hear it, but just barely. Ryuuzaki was getting paler by the minute. Noyoki pulled out her cell phone, just as Matsuda raced in.
"Holy hell...Ryuuzaki!" Realizing what Noyoki was doing, he moved swiftly to her side and pressed his hand on top of the fabric, which was slowly turning red. Noyoki made contact with the hospital and they sent out an ambulance. Ryuuzaki was barely conscious, but his eyes never left hers. Looking into them, she realized just how deep and mesmerizing they were. She stared into those eyes, willing him to live, whispering comforting words to him, telling him it would be okay, that he had to be okay. When the paramedics arrived, they hooked him to tubes and loaded him onto a stretcher. She went with them as they loaded him into the ambulance.
Yeah, I'm ending it here. I have a good reason, though, because the next chapter's in L's POV!!!!! Aren't you all just so excited? RxR, please! Let me know that there's someone out there reading this! XD
