A/N:Due to the fact that my boyfriend actually read the story so far, I have decided to update more often.

I was right! This was the expected answer! But why did it surprise me so much? Why were my knees locked in place? And why was my head spinning? All I wanted was for him to be in love with me as I am in love with him. But now that my fantasy was reality I wasn't sure how to handle it. I had spent so many long nights dreaming of different scenes with Ryuk and I being in love. My favourite was the one of us having a picnic late at night in the park, Ryuk eating his apples with the moonlight dancing on his skin. I would never eat in these dreams, I was too awestruck by the beauty that Ryuk possessed. We sat in silence while Ryuk ate. Then when he was finished we talked. We talked about everything and anything, about movies and criminals and our love. Nearing the end on the dream was my favourite, he told me how much he loved me and all of his favourite things about me, it was really sweet. I thought that was only a dream, but now I will make it come true. Tonight Ryuk and I will have our midnight picnic of my dreams.
"Uhhh..Light? Why aren't you saying anything? Did I screw up? I knew I shouldn't have told you that?"Ryuk said really flustered.
"No, it's not that. I'm just thinking is all. I don't really know how to say this Ryuk but..."I responded a bit nervously.
"What is it Light? Oh, you said you had something to tell me! Go on say it. Sorry I forgot like that"Ryuk replied.
"....Ryuk this isn't easy for me to say but..."I said trying to find the right words to tell him.
"It's okay Light, you can tell me."Ryuk said.
"Ryuk, I am in love with you as well."I said as calmly as possible.
"Well that's great Light! I was so scared you were going to give up the Death that we would never see each other again."Ryuk replied.
"Ryuk, I could never do that, I love you too much. Plus my perfect world will never happen without you and the Death Note."I replied.
I started to wonder if I should be asking him out on a date or something. This would be a difficult relationship we couldn't do any regular date activities. I would like to have a midnight picnic just like in my dream, but I don't know how to ask him. Should I start with talking about us, or what happens now. I have never been so nervous about asking someone out on a date before.
"So, uh, Ryuk...I was wondering if maybe...you would...like to...go..out on a...date with me?"I asked him hoping with all my heart he would say yes.
"I would love to Light, but how would that work? Nobody but you can see me. Don't get me wrong, I really want to, I just don't see how it could work."Ryuk Replied sadly.
"Ryuk, all that matters on our date is the love that we share. Besides I thought it all out. I would like to surprise you later on tonight."I said smiling slightly.
"Really? You have a plan? That's great! I can't wait! So what is the plan?"Ryuk asked.
"I told you, it's a surprise."I replied still smiling.
I walked to my bedroom door, unlocked it and walked downstairs. When I reached the kitchen my mother was waiting for me.
"Why do you spend so much time in your room now?"she asked.
"I'm studying a lot lately. School is very important to me I want to make sure I don't mess it up."I replied.
"Oh..okay. Just come out once in a while so I know you are still alive."she said.
"Okay, I will."I said.
I grabbed an apple and went back up the stairs to my room. I threw the apple to Ryuk who ate it right away. I checked the clock, it was 10:45 P.M I didn't know how late to wait to take Ryuk to the park so I decided to write more names in the Death Note. After about fifteen names I heard a scream. I ran down the stairs as fast as I could to find the commotion. Mom and Sayu were watching a horror film. Annoyed I went back to my room and continued writing names. When I looked at the clock again it was 2:00A.M, I decided now was a good time to leave. I went downstairs grabbed a few apples put them in a bag and went back upstairs.
"Hey, Ryuk. It's time for my surprise. Follow me." I told him.
The walk to the park seemed to take forever. When we got to the park I sat on my favourite bench, the only bench under a tree, and Ryuk did the same. I gave him his apples. He ate three apples in 2 minutes, but it felt like a lifetime. He finally finished eating and we began our conversation.
"Light, what's this all about?"Ryuk asked.
"It just seemed like our only possible date, late at night where nobody thought I was talking to myself."I replied.
"Oh, okay"Ryuk said.
When that was finished we sat, just staring at each other. Ryuk leaned forward it looked like he was going to kiss me, but I couldn't be sure. I didn't even know if Shinigami could kiss. He got closer and closer.

A/N:So I know, bad way to finish the chapter. But I don't really know where I'm going with all of this. I guess you and me both will find out sooner or later
