Glimpse of the Past: L Chpt. 2
A few weeks later, after going to stay at Watari's, L gets some well deserved news. Watari woke L up a little pat 8:00. "L, it's time to get up. You're going back to Dr. Kurosaki today." L pulls the covers over his head "No, I don't want to go." Watari walks to l's bed "Don't be like that. He says your bandages can come off today." L throws the covers off "Ok, maybe I'll be healed enough to have something sweet." Watari helps him out of bed "Maybe. We'll have to see.
Watari helps L get dressed. "All right, we don't have to go until this afternoon. So why don't we take a trip to the park?" L looks at him "Ok, that sounds good." They head down to the kitchen. L jumps on his seat and a stack of pancakes is placed in front of him. He eats as much as he can and stays in the chair. "Watari, are you sure this will be the last bandage change? They really bug me." Watari rests his head on L's shoulder "I believe it should be. Relax, L." L smiles and jumps off the chair.
"L, get ready. Try putting your shoes on by yourself." Watari says yelling down the hall. L comes out of his room "Why do I have to do it myself? It's easier when you do it." Watari sits and puts his shoes on. "One day, I won't be here to do this." L stares at him "One day, I'll learn but until then you'll have to do it." Watari smiles "All right, let's go." L grabs Watari's hand and they walk out to the car. Watari opens the car door and L scrambles in. Once buckled in, they head down the road to the park.
Once at park, Watari runs into a friend of his. "Mr. Roberts, hello." He yells. Mr. Roberts turns around "Why hello, Watari. Who's this?" Watari looks at L "This is Lawliet. He's been staying with me since his parents were killed in a car accident." Mr. Roberts looks at L "That's a shame. I have a son now. Did you know?" Watari shakes his head "No, wonderful news, Mr. Roberts." Mr.Roberts smiles "Yes, his name's Alex." Watari looks at his watch "Well, we're going to be late. Nice seeing you." Mr. Roberts nods "Yes, see you later." That was a long conversation. Are we going to be late?" L says with his thumb on his lip. Watari smiles "No, we won't be late." L grips Watari's hand ad they head back to the car.
They drive for a while and then stop. "Ready, L?" L nods and gets out the car. They walk in and are instantly taken back to Dr. Kurosaki's examination room. "So, L, feeling better?" l nods "Lots." Dr. Kurosaki smiles and takes L to the back room. "All right, shirt off, L. Let's get these off." L does that ant the doctor slowly removes the last bandages "There, done. Those stitches will dissolve in a few days. Other than that, you're healed." L gets big puppy-dog eyes on his face "Does that mean I can have sweets again?" The doctor nods "Yes, go ahead." L hugs Dr. Kurosaki "Thank you." The doctor walks L back to the waiting room. "He's all healed, Watari. Do one thing for me. On the way home stop for some ice-cream." Watari nods "Yes, thank you." The two wave as they leave the doctor's office.
They stop at the closest restaurant and get dinner. After that, they each get an ice-cream cone and head back home. "Watari, thank you. This tastes really good." L says finishing it up. They get home and Watari checks the time. "Wow, 7:00. You have to get ready fpr bed." L nods and goes back the hall to the bathroom. Watari starts running water in the tub. "Let's see those stitches; L. Dr. Kurosaki said I had to wash them." L climbs in and Watari checks them out. "They look good, right?" L says submerging his toy duck into the water. "They look pretty good. Now let's get that dead blood off around the cuts. This should feel a lot better." L relaxes as Watari scrubs him down. "All clean, L." L climbs out and dries off. Watari helps L into his PJs. "Ok, hands up." L holds up as high as the go and on they go. He let's out a long yawn and stretches out his arms. "Tired, huh? I'll take you back." L wraps his arms around Watari's neck and is hoisted up to his shoulders. Watari walks back the hall and lays him down. "Night, L." L squirmed down under the covers "Night, Watari." Watari ruffled his hair a bit and leaves the room.
That's the end of this little tale. Review please.
