Dear Diary
By: Luunna
Chapter two! Okay, unrelated to this story or even Death Note, but I recently bought Grave of the Fireflies. Love it, saddest movie I've ever seen. Seriously, I never cry in movies, and this one did it. Anyways, I have a question. If you can answer it, please message me, don't give the answer in reviews. Why was their aunt such a huge bitch? Really, the kids just lose their mom and their whole hometown, and what do they get? "You lazy slugs don't deserve food. Cook it yourself." I wanted to punt that bitch in the face D
And now, onto something relevant to the story. Thanks for the reviews and favorites! Again, if you have plot questions or suggestions, message me and they may be used. Unless they're "Put my OC in your story paired with L/Light/Matsuda/Soichiro/Other random Death Note character," or "Pair Light with L/L with Matsuda/Sayu and Misa/Additional generic crack slash pairing." Those won't be used both in an attempt to keep it all canon. As said before, there will only be a slight undertone of LxMisa, and that can only be passed off as recollection and will be cute, light fluffiness. 'Sides, I don't like yaoi or yuri slash. Not my cup of tea. I'll respond to reviews and stuff here:
MattTheGamer: Is it? Well crap then. I'll change the dates and stuff. Thanks again!
Furvacatta: Thanks, I thought so too! Sorry about that, I'll put more into this chapter. In response to Sue is Justice, by the way, I think you should go for it. Your Pirates one made me laugh xDD
Ouin: Thanks D I tried to make it cute. Wait until later, it gets cuter with my plans for it x3 And by the way, if I haven't posted in the RP by now, feel free to hit me with a shovel D
DeathNoteFan: Thanks, I'll do my best
Michiyo Akimoto: Thanks :D I tried to make that chapter sad, but this one's pretty happy.
Now, we turn you to your scheduled Death Note fan fiction.

"Being thin is pointless when you're dead."
My brown eyes scanned over this sentence, scrawled in the margin of the last page I had read of the diary. Upon comparing it with the childish handwriting of the rest of the page, I concluded this was written once L was older and had come to terms with what had happened. The printing of these words was smooth and neat in contrast.
Just as I started to turn the page, I heard footsteps. I closed the book and placed it in the drawer. I managed to close it silently before whoever it was had come downstairs. "Light-Kun!" I heard Matsuda calling for me. I sighed at the interruption. So troublesome, when I was getting into L's past. (A/N: No, not L's pants, you pervs.)
"Yes, Matsuda-San?" I answered. I made my voice patient and smoothed it over with average contentness. If I was too happy sounding, he'd suspect something. Matsuda's an idiot, but he'd be suspicious of too much of one emotion on an average day.
Matsuda reached the bottom of the stairs. A large grin was plastered on his face. He stopped, straightened out his red tie warily, and said, "MisaMisa's here to visit!" He announced happily.
Well, that was good. Nothing too urgent. I approached Matsuda, who was eager as ever. "Where is she?"
"She's waiting outside for you!" He answered vigorously. Maybe he wouldn't suspect a thing about being too happy. I opened the door and started down to where Misa waited for me at the front door.

"LIIIIIGHT!!!" I heard Amane Misa squeal for me as I strode to the ecstatic girl. I wasn't complaining, but did the Second Kira have to be so air headed? This did make things easier, though: She was very easy to manipulate.
"Misa." I acknowledged her calmly. She didn't seem to notice, and dashed up to me and embraced me tightly. "Misa, I can't talk for long." I said to her. She pouted.
"But Misa wants to go on a date with her Light!" She whined. I hated when she did that. It was one of her more annoying habits, whining to get her way. She really fit the bill for a spoiled teenage model. But I'd never tell her this. I needed her to help me as Second Kira, and making her angry with me would only be a hindrance. As well, it would likely cost me my life.
"I'm sorry, Misa." I acted truly sincere during the apology. "We'll go out on a date nest week. I'm busy with school right now." I lied.
After hours of more negotiations on dating, Misa had managed to wrestle me into three dates next week. I stalked off inside and saw that L was once again missing from his chair. I took this opportunity to read more of the mysterious diary. I walked over to the desk and slid the drawer open. I removed the small red book inside and flipped it open to where I had left off.

I found a stray kitty today when I was walking to the store with Daddy. He was small and black with yellow eyes. I showed him to Daddy and he said we could keep him after he got his shots! He's at the Animal Doctor. That's what Daddy said when I asked him. We can't decide a name for the kitty, though.
[In between this entry and the next, there is a childish drawing of a stick person labeled "ME" and a doodle of a black cat labeled "KITTY."
November 9, 1985
Our kitty's home now! He's so cute, and Daddy got him toys like a toy mouse and a rainbow-colored fuzzball that makes crunchy noises when you squeeze it. Me and Bear like to play with him, but he still doesn't have a name. Today when we were playing with him, he made a funny noise. It sounded like "Nya." He doesn't like when I grab his tail, and he makes the funny Nya noise when I do it, so I try not to.

Daddy said he wants to name Kitty Oliver. I liked that name, so his name is Oliver now. He also said he was going to take me and Bear fishing in the summer. When I asked what it was, he said it was when you catch fish and that he'd teach me how when he got there! But Daddy said Oliver couldn't come because he could fall in the lake. I wondered if he'd Nya when he fell in.

Oliver sleeps on my pillow at night now. But he gets mad when I wake him up and scratches me, so I get up and leave him there on my bed until he wakes up himself. Daddy had to go to work early today, so he told me to feed Oliver. Me and Bear tried to, but the bag was so heavy that it spilled all over the floor. Oliver heard it and ran down and ate it all. I hope he doesn't get sick from eating all that food.

It snowed a lot today! Me and Daddy went outside and played in the snow. We made a snowman, had a snowball fight and made a fort! It was a lot of fun, but I was cold and wet after, so Daddy made hot chocolate for us. It tasted good, and I changed into my pajamas and watched a movie with Daddy called Alice in Wonderland. It was funny, me and Bear liked it! But I think Oliver is asleep now, so he didn't watch the movie.

Gahh, this chapter's pretty short too. And it took me awhile because I kept getting stuck and I went on vacation xx Sorry, but I'll be at camp later this month as well. And now to go watch more Higurashi Kai!
