…Shi to Ai no Yakusoku…
Chapter 3: Ai no Riyuu
Today is a good day… the weather is pleasant. The cold winter is over as March begins to warm up for the start of spring. The Sakura blossoms are budding and by April the Sakura blossoms are going to bloom beautifully.
It is Light's day off today. Light decides to date with Misa since Misa is really eager to date Light. Light could have day offs every Sunday but when it comes to hard cases, he tends to work over time. Misa wanted to date Light at least once a week. So now is the chance for them to enjoy their youth.
"Light! Let's go there!" Misa drags Light.
They are in Space Land… the favorite place for dates. Misa drags Light to the roller coaster. Rarely, the line in the roller coaster is short. This is their chance to ride the roller coaster without taking too much time in waiting.
"You want to ride roller coaster? Are you not scared?" asked Light.
Misa tightly embraces Light's left arm, "That's why I want to ride the roller coaster! With Light, I won't be scared!"
"You won't freak out? Okay then, when you freak out let's ride the slash mountain." Said Light.
"Then if Misa didn't freak out, let's ride the Ferries Wheel!" smiled Misa.
Now, it is their turn to ride the roller coaster. They sit at the 4th row and wait for the ride to start.
"Isn't exciting, Light?" Misa is exited. Her arms are restless but still gripping Light's arm. Misa is as always the childish Misamisa just as they first met.
"It is. I want to know who's going to win." Light laughs lightly.
The ride starts. They begin to move upwards. Misa holds Light tighter as they go up. Here they go… they are at the peak. Let the fun begin!
"Kyaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" screams Misa.
They went downwards then soon twist to the right then goes through a loop twice. Misa keeps on screaming from time to time since she needs a break to have more air. Light didn't scream but laughs hard. It is about time the ride will be over… just another loop.
As the ride ended, Misa stops screaming; Light however, didn't stop laughing but just lightens the volume. When they get off the ride, Light still laughs.
This made Misa annoyed. "Light! Stop laughing!" shouted Misa. She still embraces Light's arm.
Light chuckles, "You freaked out from the moment the ride started, Misa! I win." He covers his mouth with his right hand. Maybe he might splatter saliva… hee hee.
"It's not funny! I lost but you don't have to laugh that hard!" Misa lifts her left arm and swings her fist in the air.
Light stops laughing but keeps smiling. "You know Misa why I chose the splash mountain? I like your freaked out expression. So cute."
Misa's cheeks blush pink. "Cute…? Light you meanie!" she hits her left fist lightly at Light's head.
"Hey, isn't that supposed to be a compliment?"
Misa's cheeks are still pink. "Yes so you deserve that hit."
Light laughs lightly, "I don't get it. Anyway, as decided, we're riding the splash mountain."
They continue to enjoy their stay at the Space Land, enjoying the park rides and gardens. In every ride, Light bets with Misa and in the end Light always win. The sun is setting; the west horizon shows a bright yellow-orange light while the east shows a very dark deep blue.
"Let's call this a day… after the Ferries Wheel." Said Light.
Misa jumps in joy. She drags Light again to the last ride. They soon take a capsule of the ride then lift upwards. The capsule inside is a round seat so Light and Misa seat beside each other.
In the middle of the ride, Misa looks out to see the sunset. "Isn't beautiful?"
"That's why I always win at the bets. If I didn't win, we won't have these nice views. Besides, before the ride ends we will be able to see the night sky. I calculated the time so we could see the best view."
Misa looks at Light with her cheeks bloated like a puff fish. "But you don't have to be mean on me!"
After that, they become silent. They enjoy the spectacular view of the sun setting sky. The sky turned deeper blue as the sun disappeared from the view. Night has come; Space Land turns the lights open. Another spectacular view has come, a park full of colorful lights.
"Nee Light… Misa always love Light from my very first sight of you. I'm really happy that you understand my feelings." Said Misa in a soft voice.
Light smiles, "Misa… Since the day I met you, I had this feeling that I should protect you… I don't know why but it seems that it shows how I really care for you."
The reason why Light though about it is because Misa is the second Kira at that time. If Misa was caught as the second Kira then Light as Kira, he will be in trouble. He needed to protect Misa from the police. But now, he doesn't remember anything about it.
Taking advantage of the scenery and the silence, Light slowly kisses Misa. Misa closes her eyes and kisses him back.
Misa remembers the first time Light kissed her. It was a one shot. It was so fast. But she could remember every detail except for the knowledge of the Death Note. 'Light is the greatest detective in the world…'
After the Ferries Wheel, they went home for dinner.
I'm happy to see the reviews from the last chapter. I didn't really care if this fanfic plot is too ordinary. It's a fanfic so I could calm down from the shock of reading the ending of Death Note manga. I'm happy that there are people who likes this fic. Arigatou Minasan!
