I'll Always Have You
Chapter Five: In A New Light(his POV)
Okay, so I lied. Maybe I'm gonna be slow at updating. But today's the last day of school, so I'll be able to do more over Christmas break. Yays for breaks! Anyways though, this one's gonna be short too. Meh for short chappies. So before I rant on too much more, here's the fifth chapter. Enjoy faithful readers!
Light found himself walking down this same street he had walked everyday for a week. He could still hear himself screaming at Misa, the only person who had ever cared for him besides family. He couldn't count how many holes were in the walls of L's apartment. L had yelled at him on every occasion possible and it was starting to get annoying. So he did the only thing he could do, walk. Every day. He was going insane, he just knew it. "What was I thinking walking out on Misa like that? Neither L nor Misa bother to explain what they were doing spending so much time together while I was gone. So what am I to think?" Light looked up and found himself in front of Misa's apartment complex. "I must be crazy or going crazy," he said to himself as he climbed the stairs to the main doors. He climbed every set of stairs until he got to the top. Light took a deep breath and knocked on the door. He tried his best to smooth out the wrinkles in his clothes, but to no avail. Misa would laugh at him when she saw him. The door opened slowly. "Misa-chan, can I come in?"
"Mistress Misa isn't home right now." The door swung completely open and her butler was at the door.
'Damn!' "How long has she been gone?"
"For the most part of the day. She does this every day and typically stays gone until late in the evening. Would you like to come in?"
"Sure." Light stepped in and sat down on Misa's couch. Her scent lingered in the air. God, how he longed to talk to her and explain his actions from before. The butler brought him a cup of tea and told Light about Misa's odd actions day after day.
"She constantly says she's going to her recording studio."
"But she has one here in her place, doesn't she?"
"Yes, but she insists on going downtown. She let it slip about meeting that L fellow." Light's insides bubbled furiously. He put down his cup and got up.
"I'm sorry to leave so soon, but I have some things I need to take care of." He didn't really, he just wanted to come home and settle down before he socked L a good one.
"Of course sir. You're welcome to come by any time and hopefully Mistress Misa will be home next time." Light nodded stiffly and walked out the door. This was just ridiculous! So they were probably still having an affair behind his back. Light walked back to L's apartment in blind anger and pulled out his laptop. He just surfed the internet until he heard the front door open. L came into Light's room and smiled.
"Back, huh?"
"Have a fun day?"
"Always do. I'm gonna go take a shower. Do you need the bathroom before I do?"
"Nope. Have fun." Light forced a fake smile on his face and L left his room. "I'm really starting to hate this living arrangement."
