::I am Kira::

Chapter 2:

Please, please, PLEASE, review! D: I need to know if it's worth keeping or not. :/

Oh yea, and I don't own Deathnote or any of the characters.

Light's POV

I lay sleeplessly on my bed, staring at the many cracks on my ceiling. Damn, Ryuzaki! I can't get anything done! I can't write a single name in the Deathnote with a fear that I'll kill you accidentally. 3 days without a single death. I'm positive L has noticed this by now… I sigh and turn to my side. Lord, Ryuzaki… You're all I can think about. Your mysterious dark eyes, beautiful pale skin and soft pink lips…

I sigh again and bury my face in my pillow. I haven't even talked to you, besides the exchanging of names, and it would be an underestimation if you called me a little obsessed…

L's POV

I sit with my knees at my chest, waiting for the teacher to enter the classroom. You think SHE would be on time to the meeting SHE set up. I glance at the clock and watch the second hand make its many dozen rounds.

Eventually, the teacher, fifteen minutes late, comes in. I glance at her. "I'm pleased to make your acquaintance this morning."

"No need for attitude, Ryuzaki… I actually invited you here this morning for YOUR advantage." She smiles a little and sets her purse down under her desk. "I was wondering if you'd consider entering an advanced class for the next semester."

I shake my head. "No." I simply say.

"B-But Ryuzaki…" She stutters. "This would look so good on your college transcripts. A-And it would make your family so proud. Don't you want to honor your family, Ryuzaki?"

I glare at her. "What family?"

She looks at me, astonished, as the bell rang and students start pouring into the classroom. Light walks in second to last and I blush slightly, trying to advert my attention to the contents of my backpack, pulling out a blank notebook, which is supposed to contain my math notes.

I sigh under my breath as Light takes his usual seat next to me. It's his entire fault I can't get anything done! I can't focus anymore; my thoughts are traveling at light speed, and not in the good way. Watari keeps sending me evidence, and I can't even find myself right in mind to fit two opposite puzzle pieces together. Near and Mello, my successors, probably have more of an understanding of the Kira investigation than I do…

Light glances at me, notebook and pencil in hand, writing the date at the corner of my page. "Taking notes today, Ryuzaki?"

I nod, trying to end the conversation that he's attempting to start. He looks at me with his beautiful brown eyes… "Wanna' borrow my notebook to catch up on your notes?"

I bite my lip and blush a little, "N-No thank you, Light-kun…" I say quietly.

He nods and frowns a little. "O-Okay then, Ryuzaki…" I watch him out of the corner of my eye as he pulls things from his backpack.

The teacher starts passing out graded tests, my focus still on Light's seemingly perfect face… My eyes finally leave him and I look down at my test, not surprised to see it with a perfect score.

Light turns towards me, "What'd you get?" He flashes his 248/250. I blush and flip my test over quickly. He rolls his eyes, "Oh it can't be that bad." He takes my test and looks at the score.

I blush, lean my head on my hands resting on my knees and look down. "Wow, good job, Ryuzaki!" he says, smiling. "It's nice to have a challenge for the high score now."

I smile a little, "Are you asking for a little "friendly competition"?

He nods, "Though I must admit… I'm pretty competitive… And I've had the highest score in the class for years."

I giggle a little, "Good luck upholding that."

Light's POV

Ryuzaki and I finally shared a conversation for the first time in days. Even if he was antagonizing my intellectual level, I don't really care. For the first time in days, I've actually seen him smile. And it's so beautiful…

I think I might ask him to study with me. I get nervous at the thought of speaking to him, afraid I'll mess up my words, let alone the thought of asking him out. And the extremely high chance that I'll be denied.

I sigh and start doodling in my notebook and find myself drawing a picture of Ryuzaki. I blush, tear out the page quickly, crumple it up and throw it into my backpack.

A few minutes later, I get a paper on my desk and am surprised to see perfect handwriting belonging to Ryuzaki on the lined paper.

Ryuzaki: Is everything okay..? :/

Me: Yea, I'm fine, you?

R: I'm quite well, thank you.

Me: Cool… I was wondering if you wanted to go with me to the library tomorrow..?

I scratch the second part of the note quickly, just leaving the "Cool" part.

R: Are you sure you're fine, Light-kun? What's wrong? You can tell me, you know. I won't betray my only friend.

Me: Do you want to hang out afterschool..? I might be able to tell you then.


Sorry I haven't been writing much recently, I lost internet connection at my house DX
