I'll Always Have You
Chapter Eleven: L's Secret Revealed
If you guys haven't noticed, I'm taking elements from the movie && series. So please don't be confused by some of the characters surviving when they died somewhere else. If they're still in the story, just go with it, mkay? Another note I thought I'd have to add after thinking about putting in Mogi-san after he died in the beginning of the second movie. -sweatdrop- So, here's the next chappie, don't be confused.
Two weeks passed by and all the officers gathered at Misa's apartment. She seemed flustered by all the attention and kept close to Light at all times. "Who are we waiting for?"
"An old friend of sorts," came from L. Everyone turned to him, wondering who this old friend could possibly be. "You'll see when they arrive." It was like he read everyone's mind. Light and Misa looked at each other and shrugged.
"When will they arrive?"
"Sometime today. They're traveling from England." The doorbell rang and Watari went to answer it.
"Hello Ms. Ahtasan. L is in here." They heard the door shut and a giggle come from the door. It sounded womanly, not girlish. Watari walked back in living room with a tiny blush over his cheeks. "May I introduce, Sakura Rivers. England's number one pop star and part-time detective. An old resident of Wammy House and friend of Ryuuzaki's." L jumped up and looked at the girl with a dark blush. She was tall and thin, almost like a model. Her smile was more beautiful than the sun and framed by light brown hair. Those blue-green eyes were captivating and she could have been Misa's alter ego. L grabbed her hand nervously and she giggled.
"Everyone, this is Sakura Rivers, as you just heard. She goes by Ahtasan Takahashi in public to hide her identity though. So outside this room, she's Ahtasan."
"Gosh, Ryuuzaki, you sure do have a pretty friend. Were you both orphans?" They nodded and L led her into the living room.
"Konnichiwa," she said in soft voice. Light noticed that L's eyes didn't stray from her once. He looked like a tomato. Light suppressed a snicker and cleared his voice.
"Welcome to the team, Sakura." Light shook her hand and she bowed a little. She turned to L and embraced him. Everyone watched curiously as she placed a chaste kiss on his cheek.
"Took you long enough to call on me, Ryuu-chan. I was beginning to think you'd forgotten about little old me." L saw that everyone was staring and cleared his throat pointedly.
"Not right now, please?" Sakura stepped back and threw her hands in the air. She pulled out a tube of apple red lipstick and started to apply it her full lips.
"Umm... Ryuuzaki, were you going to say something?" L shook his head and looked to his fellow workers and investigators.
"Yes, we're all here because Kira's back. If everyone's been watching TV, they would know that Kira isn't killing as he or she was before." L looked to Light and Misa and they bowed their heads. This was no time for guilt trips. "There have only been three deaths recently, but we can safely say there will be more to come. The questions are, who's able to rejoin us and where do we start searching for clues as to Kira's identity?"
"We need to start by using headquarters again."
"Agreed," chanted everyone.
"Until we get back there, there's no point in us meeting," pointed out Soichiro.
"So, meeting adjourned?"
"Yes." All the investigators marched out of the apartment save the ones who lived there and Sakura. Misa threw herself onto the couch with a loud sigh and L pulled Light to the side. "I'm going to give you a number I want you to contact. Call them for me, please?"
"Now?"
"Yes, if you don't mind." Light nodded and walked off.
"Miss me, Ryuu-chan?" Misa peeked around the corner and watched the couple interact.
"It's been forever since we've even talked, Sakura-chan." L was holding Sakura's face in his hands. They were staring at each other smiling. There was a glitter in L's eyes that Misa had never seen before; it looked almost like love... "Can... can I kiss you, Sakura-chan?"
"Don't ask, silly. Just take it." Sakura leaned into L and kissed him slowly. She put her arms around his neck and he slid his arms around her waist. Misa couldn't tear her eyes away, they seemed so at ease with each other. Two long lost lovers of a sort, finally reunited, putting all their love into one makeout session. Misa could almost cry, it was so romantic. She noticed that L held Sakura the way he held everything else, with care. It was as though he considered her a piece of china that would shatter if he didn't handle her properly. His hands traveled up and down her sides. Sakura would give a giggle and bite L's lip, causing him to give a low chuckle.
'Why doesn't Light do this to me more often, and like that?' They broke away moments later, foreheads resting against each other.
"Aishiteiru, Sakura-chan."
"Aishiteiru, Ryuu-chan." They shared one more short kiss and broke away, still holding hands.
"Shall I introduce you to my roomates?"
"Of course," the brunette said breathlessly. Misa hurried back to the couch and pretended that she was merely laying down from all the exhaustion. She laid down and L peeked around the corner.
"Misa-chan?" She looked up. "I want to properly introduce you to Sakura-chan." She came out from behind the corner and waved.
"I know you, Misa Amane. You're even cuter than Ryuu-chan made you out to be." Sakura held out her hand. Misa shook her hand and L kissed Sakura's cheek.
"Be right back." Sakura sat down beside Misa and gave her a big friendly smile.
"So, tell me a little about yourself." The girls talked about each other's career in turn. 'This could be good,' thought Misa as she listened to her new best friend talk about her wonderful life and old friend.
