Disclaimer: I do not own Death Note. I wish I did but the sad truth is that I'm not that good at drawing or writing.
Disclaimed: About a week ago I looked at the calendar and when, "shoot! It's nearly Valetine's day!" I'm covered for a valentines (as if any of you would have asked me), but I still needed to write a chapter in my Holiday fic. I also recently started watching Death Note. Great series and thought provoking. If you have any suggestions for anime, couples or holidays, send them in a review and I'll take a look. Sorry to any of you who read my other stuff. My life is hectic right now so I'm trying but failing to find time. Please let me know your thoughts. But understand, flames and reviews alike will be responded to.
L, or as he was known to the members of the investigation, Ryuzaki, was in his regular thinking position: toes shuffling and hands picking a chocolate from among its fellows.. He bit into the chocolate and found it contained rich caramel. Ryuzaki though about the very interesting day he had just had.
It had started like most days had now that head quarters were in the large building he had commissioned. Light complaining about how the hand cuffs were a real pain especially since it meant he could not go more that four feet without L being right behind him. "I mean, I know we're friends and all Ryuzaki but I wouldn't want even my closest friend chained to me for over three months."
L's expected reply was, "The cuffs will be removed when I'm certain you are not Kira."
"Sure." Light said turning towards his bowl of cereal. "But sometimes I wonder if you don't keep them on me just so you have some one to talk to."
"That may be true." Ryuzaki shrugged. "But for all intensive purposes let's stay with the case." Turning back to his own bowl of much sweeter cereal, the world famous detective proceeded to 'dig in'.
Just then, the equally as famous model, Misa Misa thundered down the steps from her upstairs room and dove at Light.
"Light-kun!" She shouted as she grasped her arms around his neck. "Happy Valentine's Day! Want to see what I got you?" She quickly pulled a large, heart-shaped box from behind her back. "I hope you like it. Now what did you get me? Hu? Hu?"
"Um." Light scrambled for a response as Misa lent closer with each 'hu'.
"Actually Misa," L interceded over his bowl of surgery breakfast, "Light ordered a large stuffed bear for you. It should arrive tomorrow."
"Really! Oh thank you light! Thank-you-thank-you-thank-you-thank-you!" Misa was bouncing up and down with her arms still around his neck.
"Y-you're welcome Misa." Light replied a bit stunned.
"Come and visit me later Light. We'll have a romantic dinner. You can even bring you're little pet." She winked and ran back up to her room.
There was a moment of shocked silence in which all that could be heard was the crunch of L's cereal. Finally he broke the pause by saying, "I really wish she would stop calling me your pet."
"Ryuzaki, thanks for saving me there."
"I'll ask Watari to have one delivered to her room."
"How can I ever thank you?"
"That box of chocolates looks good. That will due for now. That and if you would have a word have a word with Misa about referring to me as a pet I would be most appreciative."
"Uh, Okay." Light said slightly confused. He handed over the box and famed detective took it and placed it to the side for later.
Sitting outside the door to Misa's room at dinner time, L continued his slow progress through the heart shaped box of chocolates. "Yes, this has been a strange day. Why it is necessary to have a national day celebrating love is beyond me. It seems much simpler to just do it on a day of your own choosing. Oh well. Might as well enjoy it while I can." He shrugged and popped another chocolate in his mouth.
A.N. Hope you had a great Valentine's Day. Or, as it is known to the rest of us, singles appreciation day. I know it's the day after but I kinda procrastinated. Say what you will but you know you do the same thing. I would greatly appreciate it if you would send me a review. Even flames have some cinder of truth to them.
