A/N: Hello sorry I haven't updated in awhile, I'm trying to catch up on anime I haven't finished or even watched since I have a lot of animes I want to watch even though I watched I think over forty animes already. While I was going to write this my sister and her friend asked me to draw an anime character for both of them, Zyro Kurogane from Beyblade Shogun steel for my sister and Dan Kuso from the Bakugan series which I finished that series and I love it. They asked me since I'm apparently good at free drawing Pokemon and some anime characters, I say some because I tried to draw Koujaku from Dramatical Murder and his face is too wide and the lines I drew for him are unaligned so to me it looks horrible to my sister and her friend along with my mom and dad it looks good. I was also confused on a future chapter of this story since I accidently saved two of the same word papers and I couldn't remember which one was my original one. I know those are no excuses but I wanted to inform you in case you wanted to know.
I do not own Death Note if I did it would be horrible the only thing I own would be this story line and the characters that aren't in the anime.
Please enjoy this story which because I haven't wrote this in awhile and I couldn't sleep I stayed up till eight a.m. writing this and got done rereading it at eleven something a.m., I know it was before eleven o' six though. this chapter and following ones might not have similar wording plus I haven't watched Death Note since sometime last year. Okay on with the story since I'm taking way too long with this author note.
Chapter 3:
Sachiko's' POV
"They sure are taking a while" I heard my eldest twin say in I think an exasperated tone, I wonder what's taking them so long as well I thought as I heard soft steps from the ceiling signaling there was movement upstairs. I looked towards the stairs to see Light walking down but he had a worried expression in his eyes, I wonder why he's so worried.
Lights' POV
"Hi everyone sorry we're late getting down here I was talking with Ryuzaki in my room since he was wondering about the picture near our room on the side table" I said looking at my father to see that he was still annoyed with me for not coming back down earlier than I did. "At least your both down here, I was getting worried that one of you got hurt somehow" father said but I never missed the small smirk he tried to hold back, he was probably hoping that I was the one that got hurt, oh well I did but that was emotional not physical so he can't get much amusement in that.
"No father nothing like that happened to either of us, right Ryuzaki?" I asked said person who was coming down the stairs "correct Light, nothing happened while we were in Lights room, all we did was have a conversation about the photo on the table near Lights room" he answered seeming lost in thought which worried me somehow. "Would you like a piece of cake now Ryuzaki? I'm sure you've been waiting a while for it, it must be torture for you" I said ignoring my mom's glare of annoyance as Ryuzaki nodded his head and said of course.
"I'll go cut you a piece while you take a seat" I said as I walked over to the table with Ryuzaki so I can cut him a piece of cake with chocolate filling and chocolate chips which is my mom's favorite. As I went to cut a bottom piece of the cake Aries flew over my head scaring me resulting in an uneven cut of cake, which I don't think will go well with Ryuzaki much.
L's POV
After Light cut my piece of cake I was surprised when a plate fell in front of me with a slice of cake on it, I was surprised because I was thinking of the scars, cuts and bruises on Light when I walked in without bothering to knock first. When I snapped out of it I kept hearing Light's family including Light asking if I was alright or not to which I nodded the answer I normally give people. When I finished the cake I thanked Light for it since it was heavenly like his cooking seems to always be like if he gets money for it, after a few minutes of silence I decided to call my guardian Watari who complied instantly with what I said without any questions like he always does.
"Was that your Guardian?" I heard a voice from behind me which scared me a little bit though I just turned my head to see that Light was very close to my ear, closer than I thought he was which made me jump slightly causing him to laugh. Did he forget about what happened in his room or did he forgive me for asking those questions already since I haven't said anything he didn't want me to talk about.
Ding Ding Dong
"I got it" I heard Mrs. Yagami say as she opened the door "I'm here to pick up Ryuzaki" I heard a familiar voice say as a man entered the room. "Hello Watari it is good to see you again your son was a delight to have here, he was so polite during dinner and while he had dessert as well" I heard Mrs. Yagami tell Watari as they entered the dining room that Light and I were in. "Ryuzaki we have to head home now, tell everyone goodbye until school tomorrow" Watari told me and I did just that as I exited the Yagami household, when I did I entered the car that Watari ushered here and we headed to the hotel so I can work on the KC gang case.
"Have you decided who you're going to ask to assist in the case L?" Watari asked me during the car ride to the hotel "yes I have" I answered as I looked out the window still wondering about Light and I have no idea why I'm worried about him, he doesn't exert any bad or evil aura at all so I don't think he's in league with the KC gang but an aura can be masked and I don't know that much about Light either so that makes it harder to trust him. "L? L?" I heard Watari say over and over again but I didn't answer until he opened the door and his words didn't really register either as I was lost in thought.
"L?" Watari said again this time it registered because he shook my shoulders which snapped me out of my thoughts and back to reality "yes Watari" I finally responded and as a result he let out a breath of relief I think for me finally responding. "I was worried when you didn't respond to my question and when we arrived you were still not responding to my inquiries so I grew even more worried" Watari answered after he breathed the sigh of relief. "Sorry Watari I was thinking about Light and his life that I've observed so far to see if he fits the requirements of a suspect" I said seeming to have quenched Watari's worries slightly.
"Who do you have in mind to assist in the case?" Watari asked me as I exited the car and we headed on our trek to my hotel room "that you'll learn when he arrives at headquarters tomorrow that is if his father allows him to do such a thing" I said not really expecting much from Mr. Yagami for how he treats his son at home. "Sir don't you think I should know so I can search for more information on him while you're at school?" Watari asked me which surprised me a bit since he never questioned my motives before now.
"I don't think that is necessary Watari, I have enough information to classify them as a friend and foe" I said as I took a seat in front of my computers, I know the KC gang is behind the killings but I don't have any sufficient evidence or suspects to match with any of the victims to the KC gang. No one knows anything about the KC gang or their members except the members themselves so we can't investigate or track the gang members to get evidence we just have to find clues on where or who they are by the crime scenes which is proving to be difficult the longer the case is at a standstill. "Have you got into contact with Mello, Matt or Near at all?" I asked Watari as he handed me a medium sized piece of strawberry shortcake "no I haven't been able to contact them at all for the past few months the last I heard of them they were adopted by a man in the vicinity of your school and here so I assume they're going to your school if they aren't going to school at the Whammy institute" he answered as he stood a few feet behind me.
I figured they would've gone to school here, but I don't have anyone in my class with their names or their aliases so I won't be able to find them there if I don't have them in any of my classes (1) I thought as I took a bite of my cake and typed in key words that could hopefully lead me to the KC gang or Lights past history or even present history. After a few hours I decided to call Mr. Yagami and ask him if he could bring his son to the headquarters tomorrow, I decided to call instead of email since it's quicker and because I have nothing else to do since I won't be able to find out anything new about the KC gang. I did find something out about Lights past though and it said that he was missing for about a week and even though Mr. Yagami knew Light was missing he claimed he tried finding him, but couldn't after a few days of trying though Kira said that his father knew but didn't try to find him which is strange to me that Light went missing when he was fourteen and that was the same time that he informed his parents about a job.
As I dialed Mr. Yagamis phone number and it rang I tried again and he didn't pick up again I wonder where he is or what he's doing, maybe I can call Light and see if he could get his father on the phone. I dialed Lights number and it rang twice before a tired and I think pained voice answered the phone "Light is that you?" I asked the opposition who answered yes and I continued to talk once I was sure it was Light. "Are you okay? You sound like you're in pain" I asked he just said that he fell down the stairs but I couldn't believe that because I heard glass falling in the background but it was too far away to be from Light trying to get up or from him moving around.
"Why'd you call Ryuzaki?" he asked still seeming to be in pain but seemed slightly scared as well "I was wondering if your dad was busy since my father would like to talk to him. "My father is busy at the moment" Light answered before another crash sounded seeming to make Light tense since I remember that when Light tenses he takes a short deep breath close to a gasp when he does. "Light where are you? Are you sure you're okay?" I asked him again getting no response for a while before he finally answered. "I'm fine I'm at home, my mom is out with Kira shopping for more schools supplies and my father is at work at the moment" he said which surprised me since I don't remember seeing that Mr. Yagami has to work a late shift or night shift for the rest of the week let alone today, so why is Light lying?
"Well I'll tell my father that your father was wanting to speak to him, you can tell your father to email my dad's work or private email address, now I have to go, I'll see you at school tomorrow" Light said as another crash sounded and the call ended. What just happened? Why did Light lie? And what or who was causing the crashing sounds? I wondered as I stood frozen in place still trying to process the call before another question popped into mind as I realized Light was whispering the entire time. Was that Mr. Yagami that caused the crashes? I thought as I called Watari back into my room to check Mr. Yagamis schedule to see if I was correct about Mr. Yagami not working the late or night shift.
Soichiros POV
"Light come on stop hiding I have to tell you what you did wrong as a host today, so come out already I heard you whispering earlier, were you talking to Ryuzaki? If you were did you apologize for your poor hospitality before he left this afternoon?" I asked loudly so my son could hopefully hear me for once. "He said his father was wanting to talk to you, I told him you were at work and he was to tell his father that he is to email your work or private email to reach you at the moment" I heard my son say which barely surprised me at how he worded that to a friend.
I know this is cruel but I have been crueler to him, he needs a strict guidance to pass college and get into my task force and take my spot as the head officer on the force. His mother is way too lenient on him to teach him how the real world will treat him, he may be smart but that doesn't mean he'll survive the cruel reality that is his life. Once he gets a real case solved then maybe I'll be more lenient but that won't happen for a while now I know that for sure "come on Light I promise I won't punish you if you apologize to Ryuzaki and his father tomorrow" I said hopefully baiting him out of hiding.
"Are you serious father? As long as I apologize for my in etiquette hospitality towards Ryuzaki and his father tomorrow I won't be punished for being an in etiquette host?" he asked seeming to have been baited slightly but not all the way. "Of course Light you just have to have reliable bystanders observing your apologizing" I said to which he answered "you mean you" and I replied yes which seemed to be the only way he'd come out and he did, though I kept my promise to not punish him for his horrible manners if he apologized.
The next morning
Light's POV
I feel so grateful for father's merciful actions, I don't need any more cuts on my body and he really doesn't need to see the tattoo and scars from the KC gang either or at least not until I move out or catch those criminals or even better both of those options. "Hey Ryuzaki I was wondering if I could see your father so he can meet my father after school today?" I asked Ryuzaki when we were in lunch since I forgot to the other classes I had with him "of course Light, and are you okay? You don't look so good" Ryuzaki asked and I figured he was correct since I got another note from the KC gang this time from 213879, in other words from Merrik Merrill and not Paris or Greg like the last time.
"I'm fine Ryuzaki, how's your dad doing? Did he get ahold of my dad okay?" I asked hopefully changing the topic to something less painful "yes he did, thank you for the help Light" he answered which I'm glad I was able to help but I can't shake the foreboding feeling that something I might like yet not like is going to happen today afterschool. I finished my Raw Kale Shiitake Salad and Apple Cider soda a little later than Ryuzaki finished his Strawberry Shortcake Delight which he finished in about five minutes or at least close to five minutes anyway. After lunch Ryuzaki called his father and asked for him to meet my father again and while he did that I tried calling mine but he didn't answer "that's weird why isn't he picking up?" I asked a loud absentmindedly which caught Ryuzakis attention.
"Isn't he right there?" Ryuzaki asked me pointing to a figure in a task force uniform that was walking towards the school, it looks like fathers uniform but I'm not quite sure since they're too far away for me to see clearly. "Hey Light why aren't you heading home? Don't you have to make dinner tonight?" I heard my brother ask from behind me which scared me half to death "Kira don't do that you scared me" I said shocked at my words since I'm not supposed to be scared or have any feelings that are said to hold me back from school or my life outside of school.
"Light did you say you were scared just now?" I heard a stern voice I immediately recognized as my fathers as a shadow stood at a standstill next to mine which scared me more than a punishment from him right now. "No father I did not say I was scared I… I said I was prepared for a test I'm supposed to be taking in AP History" I said stuttering slightly which seemed to make my father's shadow grow bigger in comparison to my own. "Ok I will buy that for now Light but there are many trusted bystanders nearby who heard what you said and if I find out you were lying you know what will happen" he whispered in my ear which almost made me shiver from how cold his voice was.
"Hello father" I heard Ryuzaki say as a black 2004 Cadillac CTS V Sport parked beside us which allowed me to get away from my father for a bit which I was glad for since he was way too close for a whispered chat. "What is it that you wanted to meet with me about Mr. Soichiro Yagami?" I heard Ryuzakis father ask mine "actually sir it's Light who has something to say I just wanted to be here to verify he did what he was supposed to do on the phone yesterday but didn't" my father said which seemed to surprise many of the others around me. "And that would be Light?" I heard Ryuzaki ask as I turned to face both Ryuzaki and his father "I wanted to apologize for my in etiquette hosting yesterday afternoon" I said as I bowed to be more polite as my father had told me to be when I apologize.
When I didn't hear anything other than feeling my father's smirk I looked up just enough to see everyone present had gaped in surprise at quite possibly my bluntness at my apology. "Why are you apologizing Light? You weren't a bad host yesterday" I heard Kira and Ryuzaki say at once which seemed to have surprised them "yes I was a bad host, I left with no explanation before cutting the cake, I didn't ask if Ryuzaki wanted any, I worried my guest, I didn't answer the door for Ryuzakis father, and many more things" I said hoping I didn't forget anything my father said to me.
"Light who told you how to be a good host?" I heard all of them except my father ask at once "to be a good son I have to do everything correctly and for that I failed to do, I wasn't a good host towards Ryuzaki or his father and the one who taught me those lessons is my father" I said looking Ryuzaki in the eyes as I spoke. "Good Light, a promise is a promise so you don't have anything to worry about" I heard my father say before he spoke again "Kira, Light and I have business at the task force headquarters so you may head home, Light prepared a dinner for us last night so all you have to do is heat it up or not heat it up, it's up you" is what my father said before waving goodbye to Ryuzaki and his father as well as Kira.
L's POV
What the frick? Light was a good host how the frick was he a horrible host? And what the frick did Mr. Yagami mean when he said a promise is a promise so Light doesn't have to worry about anything anymore? I wondered as I stood on the schools sidewalk still frozen in place from Lights apology. "Son we're going to be late for the task force meeting remember?" I heard Watari say as I was being lightly pushed into the backseat of the car. We arrived at the task force headquarters where I'm to meet Light again, I wonder what he'll think of me once he finds out I'm the great detective L.
We reached the floor where I'm to meet with Light as L instead of Ryuzaki but before I opened or even reached the door knob I heard a scream and a lot of rustling which made me fling open the door to find that the cause of the commotion was Lights snake Cleo. "Oh dear" I said a loud making everyone turn to me after I heard a hiss I recognized as Cleo's and not someone being annoyed or relieved "Ryuzaki?" I heard a surprised gasp before I realized that it was Lights.
"Hello Light, it's good to see you now if all of you may, please sit down and do not mind the cobra around Lights neck it won't hurt you though if it does than it will have to be sent to the animal shelter or a zoo so I don't think it will harm any of you" I said as I walked around the table to the he head of it which was near Chief Yagami and Light. "Actually she would be experimented on or poached not sent to a docile place like a shelter or zoo" I heard Light say with a hint of disdain towards something or someone "now why am I here?" I heard Light ask but this time he was tense and Cleo was repeatedly hissing something to Light which was now getting annoying.
"You are here because I need help capturing the KC gang and I think you are smart enough to help me do so" I said not missing that Light tensed at the name but relaxed when Cleo hissed something again, what is it with Cleo that is so relaxing I mean she seems to not trust many people yet Light is so calm around her. "She protects me from people that are a threat to me Ryuzaki and she calms me because she is always right in her assumptions so stop thinking about it and please continue" I heard Light say and I noticed that Mr. Yagami glared at Light when he got a bit rude which is strange to me.
"Do you know anyone who might know where they are or who might even know them?" I asked since I'm quite sure he would know such things if he wants to be a detective like his father. "Yes I have an old friend who tends to keep track of gangs such as the KC gang which by the way KC are the initials of the leader of the gang" Light said which had me curious how he knows such things as this. "If you're wondering how I know, I'm not telling you in front of the entire task force that's something I don't like talking about since it isn't exactly public knowledge" Light said which gave me a good idea.
"Ok everyone has to exit the room for a few moments while I speak to Light about something" I said which caused an uproar in commotion especially from Chief Yagami. "No buts, ors or ifs everyone" I said and they dejectedly exited the room so I could talk to Light "I'm not saying anymore until I speak to my old friend L" Light said and it sounded strange coming from his lips since he sounded like he knew that was my name.
"Since Cleo doesn't trust me because she thinks you don't know my name what do you think it is?" I asked him even though I'm quite sure he doesn't know "S Sssssss" I heard Cleo hiss but I don't know what she said. "She said it's L Lawliet" Light said which more than surprised me since she actually knows what my name is "how does she know that?" I asked not bothering to hide my surprise.
"You don't need to know now I have to go or else I'll get a lecture for being a bad host and bother to my dad's boss, goodbye and I'll talk to my old friend tomorrow about where they're going to be but I have a feeling I know where I just don't know if the schedule is the same or not so again goodbye" he said getting up and heading out the door. I was too stunned to say or do anything, first there was my name, being a bad host again, his old friend, a feeling like he actually knows them, their schedule being the same which definitely sounds like he knows them and another goodbye.
Lights POV
I looked up to L, my father isn't the reason I wanted to be a detective L is and he turned out to be a liar, to think I actually liked him, he deceived me the entire time and that hurt more than anything else. As I exited the room and the door was all the way shut I noticed no one was in the hall way "Light, what is wrong with you I thought we taught you better than that, you could've got me fired" I heard my father say in my ear as he walked off towards the exit. "Oh great more people who don't want me around or want me just to use me" I said a loud but very low so any passerby's, if possible, were around.
The next day after Lights and Ls study hall
After study hall I decided to find Jason so I could see when his gang head to Seven Minutes in Heaven so I could help L in his case so I won't get a worse punishment than I already have I thought as I moved my hand to my face to feel the gauze that covered my burn. I really don't like lying to my mom and brother but I have no choice, if I told them I might just get kidnapped by my own father instead of by strangers.
"Oh hello Light… what happened to your face?" I heard Jason ask as I got closer to him "parent disagreement on treatment of others" I said coldly as I glared at the brunette in front of me. "Ah so you got abused by your father again" Jason said smiling but I could tell he was pained by it, after I broke up with him once I found out about him being a co-leader of the KC gang he said he'll change his personality if it meant I would keep dating him. I still said no though after that he changed rapidly but kept being in the gang which was what really bothered me.
"What days do you, Kamen, Paris, Merrik, Cerik and Greg go to Seven Minutes in Heaven?" I asked very bluntly after he said that not even bothering to answer him since he knows how abusive my father is with me when I don't follow rules. "We go there every time it's open so you don't have to ask that Light" he said surprised I asked him that quite possibly because he thought I would know their schedule without having to ask. I was glad their schedule hasn't changed though but that means I have to head there every day with L, I don't mind going there and working there again but I don't want to with my idol, crush and deceiver I thought as I thanked Jason by kissing lightly on his neck which caused him to whimper before I left.
I know I tease him and he doesn't like that but he can ask his gang partner for stuff like that, that was the other reason I didn't want to date him anymore because I heard from Cleo and the regulars of the bar that in their gang their partners are also their relief for that sort of thing when they need it to work. Because I finished lunch before I talked to Jason I decided to head out to the Calla Lilly gardens and look at the various flowers (2) in the garden, when I walked out I got a text so I reached into my back pocket to grab out my PalmOne Treo 650 from my back pocket (3) and saw that L texted me saying that it had to do with a meeting after school.
I decided to open it and I read that I had to head to headquarters so I can tell everyone what I learned from my old friend, it wasn't that big of a deal but I want to avoid L as much as I can, I don't want to be rude to L since I was and still am friends with him but I just don't want to be deceived by any more people. I decided to head to headquarters now since there was only a few seconds left before the bell rang and because the school guards won't bother me about it since my mom made a deal with the school board that I could bring Cleo to school if I made lunch for the whole school the rest of the year, which isn't very hard.
As I headed to exit the gate I felt Cleo move from my waist band to my neck to nuzzle my chin "sss sss ssss sssss s" (4) Cleo hissed as she kept nuzzling my chin as I walked home to drop off my bag since I finished my homework when I was in study hall. When I reached home I unlocked the door, after I placed my bag in my room and wrote a note to mom and Kira that I was going to task force headquarters for a job and that dinner was in the fridge if it was late by the time I get back, I headed to headquarters so I can talk and hopefully leave right after.
Ls' POV
Lights' been avoiding me all day or at least hasn't been talking to me, maybe I shouldn't have said my name was Ryuzaki and just told him the truth then Cleo would trust me and Light would stop ignoring me. I need to get to know Light more so I need him to stop ignoring me but I don't know how I'm going to do that and even if he does stop ignoring me it won't guarantee that he'll actually answer my questions.
When I entered the cafeteria so I could eat my lunch I noticed that Light was heading out of the cafeteria when I sat down to eat my lunch that consisted of the food Light made for me two days ago that I asked Watari to make. I decided to follow him and noticed that he was walking towards a male with dark chocolate hair and glass forest eyes (5) that I recognize as Jason. They were talking about the KC gang I think but I wasn't sure so I'm not going to assume anything by their conversation, after their conversation finished I got a little close to very angry but not quite when Light kissed Jason's neck, I mean why would he do that? There's no point in it.
After I saw Light leave towards the gardens which are beautiful in my opinion I decided to remind Light of the upcoming meeting at headquarters, but how I don't know his email then I remembered I got a new phone from Watari yesterday after the meeting with Light. I grabbed out my black Nokia 2720 S40 Flip Phone and texted Light when the meeting was as I also hoped he would text back, I sent him the text as I followed him to the gardens and saw that he jumped slightly from the vibration of his phone and his whole body went rigid as he went to grab his phone. I wonder what he is so scared of I thought as I saw him relax and put his phone away before looking at his watch and then walk towards the gate probably to drop his bag off.
Five minutes before the meeting starts
Lights POV
"Light have you found any new information on the KC gang?" I heard someone ask me as I headed to my seat near the head of the table as the owner of the voice, who I think is named Matsuda, sat next to me. "Yes and I was correct about where they hang out and the times they show up and leave" I said as the other detectives and my father plus L arrived and took their seats; Mogi sat across from Matsuda, my father sat across from me, Ukita sat next to Matsuda and Aizawa sat across from Ukita while there seemed to be someone missing who if I remember correctly goes by the name of Ide.
"Light what new information do you have for us since I believe I remember you saying that you would have to ask an old friend for information on the KC gang" I heard my father say which made me look to him as I spoke since I also did not want to look at L either. "Well I'm happy to inform that my assumptions on the KC gang are correct" I said not at all sounding arrogant like most would expect from someone who knew something barely anyone else knows.
"And what assumptions would those be? Since I remember hearing a lot of them yesterday" I heard L say and this time I looked at him because father would hurt me if I didn't. "My assumptions I was correct about would be where they tend to hang out at and the days they hang out there" I said which seemed to interest him a bit as I noticed he moved forward slightly. "Do you have a plan on how to get to them Light?" I heard my father say which resulted in me turning towards him as I spoke "yes I do have one plan in mind since it would work better and I have connections that would help in the plan but I don't know if the plan will go well with any of you" I said slightly uneased if my plan won't work with the others.
"Let's hear your plan Light it can't be that bad since you've helped us in many cases before that were close to par with this one" I heard Aizawa say and I noticed he leaned in closer as well to show that he was interested in hearing my plan. "Yes please do Light" my father said and since I know there was something else after I looked towards him to see him mouth the words "and make me proud to be your father if L likes it as well" so in other words if L likes the plan and agreed to do it I won't get punished as severely, or at least I won't lose a pint of blood from the punishments.
"My plan is to hopefully go undercover at the place where they go every time it's opened and to maybe join it to get evidence using an alias of mine" I said gaining gasps from my father,Ukita, Aizawa, and Mogi but a "good plan" from Matsuda and a nod from L. "I think it's a good plan but someone has to go with you to make sure you won't be in any danger doing the undercover work" I heard L say and it made me dread the worst. "That's a good idea L, who do you think should accompany him on his plan?" I heard Aizawa say as he looked towards my father and then to L, please no please no please no I chanted in my head hoping L won't volunteer my father or himself. Even if L isn't known by outsiders it would be a pain since the dress code there isn't up to par with his clothing choice and if my father goes I'll get in trouble for working there in the first place.
"I volunteer myself" L said, I internally groaned, I saw my father smiled at his words, heard a relieved sigh from Ukita and Mogi, and a "good choice" from Aizawa and Matsuda which made me groan even more in annoyance. "Ok L but the dress code there isn't exactly… your style" I said and saw his left eye twitch slightly and his left eyebrow raise a bit in confusion. "I mean the dress code is close to skin tight or even skin tight not loose like you wear" I said getting a "what do you mean?" by Matsuda, Aizawa, L, and Ukita while I heard my father ask "what kind of place is this? A club?" in an annoyed tone.
I'm so dead I thought as I looked towards my father and then to L. "I mean it's a…" I didn't finish as I was uncomfortable saying it in front of everyone especially my father "Light what is the place they normally go to, do you want to be a good detective like your idol or what?" I heard my father say in a voice I'm used to hearing when he's angry with me since it was a voice he uses when he threatens me. "Just don't over react ok" I said before I heard their responses which signaled me to continue "it's a gay strip club" I said and heard gasps from everyone except my father who only glared at me, I'm dead, and a slightly wide eyed L.
Ls POV
I was surprised to hear where the KC gang hanged out and was even more surprised when I remembered how Light was acting before he actually answered, when I was finally over the shock I started talking again. "Ok what's the bars name so I can look more into it?" I asked him, when he turned around he looked at me with a shocked expression. "Umm that would be… Seven Minutes in Heaven" he answered which almost made me laugh at the name since that seems like a clichéd name for a strip club.
"Ok so when does it open and what time and date do you want to meet there?" I asked and he didn't seem to want to answer that "everyone could you please exit the room so Light and I could talk? I don't think he wants to answer any questions in a room full of people" I asked and they complied with the usual denial of Chief Yagami which is definitely getting annoying. "So… can you answer my question now?" I asked when everyone departed. "it's opened 24/7 but because a majority of the customers have work, school and homework it doesn't get many customers until about eight o' clock, and I would rather prefer any day but the KC gang normally get there at about eight since someone the leader seems close to infatuated with worked from eight to ten o' clock every day except weekends, Mondays, and holidays" he said without taking a breath for some reason. How does he even know their reasoning? That is the only thing that doesn't make sense to me, the only reasons I could come up with is that Jason is in the gang or Jason works there, Light is in the gang or he's a regular there.
The only reason out of those would be that Light is a regular there or he's in the gang though the gang one fits more into it since he knows the reason for their frequent occurrence there. Though I can't rule out the opposing choices like if Light works there or Jason is a regular there so there are multiple scenarios that could explain Lights knowledge of the KC gang.
"Do you think that the undercover work will take a while Light?" I asked him to which he answered "I think it could take a while yes, but I think I might have a way to make it quicker with the tattoo on my neck" what he said surprised me since I didn't see a tattoo on Lights neck, I only saw a bruise then again I was a bit far away so it could've been a tattoo. "I think you should stay with me in case they find out your identity and it would also make it quicker for you to decide a date for the mission to start" I said which surprised Light and then he was angry for some reason "might I ask why you would suggest such a thing L?" Light asked definitely sounding angry.
"I just answered your question without you asking and I talked to your father about it since I figured this case would take a while and as you just said it may take a while and you're also not sure of a date for us to meet there and I don't think my father would know where any strip clubs are at" I said seeming to make my point. "I do not agree with your logic as much as my father or anyone else would but because I don't want to be seen as a bad son for not listening to my father's orders I will do as you say in reason of course" I heard him say and what he said made me confused which rarely happens and normally what Light said I would've gotten easily, but I didn't.
"Ok so I guess you're living with me until the case is over" I said and I think I caught a glimpse of a smile but it only lasted a second before it disappeared and he frowned which confused me. "Ok let's go then" I heard Light say as we exited the room to see an empty hallway which surprised me but didn't seem to surprise Light, I wonder why he wasn't surprised and then I felt a chill on my spine before Light started walking again.
After we grabbed Lights stuff and he explained to Kira and his mom the reason for his pack and backpack we headed to my hotel to unpack Lights things, when we got there I told him there was only one bedroom so we would have to share a room he stiffened beside me as if he was afraid of something. "Light you okay? I could stay in the living area if sharing the bed makes you uncomfortable, I don't sleep much anyway" I said and he seemed to relax a little but said he was fine and he was going to make dinner for himself and I, I didn't turn down the invitation because I know there's ingredients in the fridge and cabinets for whatever Light is going to make.
After a little over forty-six minutes Light walked out of the kitchen holding a tray with two plates and two drinks "here you go L" Light said as he placed a piece of pie in front of me. It looked delicious and just like two days ago it looked like it belonged in a fancy restaurant "what did you make Light?" I asked and he stopped with his fork in midair making a remorseful expression as he placed his fork down and was about to speak.
Lights POV
How did I at all forget to tell L what I made that isn't at all polite my father will seriously hurt me for forgetting to be polite to his boss "I apologize for my bad manners and impolite attitude towards you since I came here L" I said as I got up to bow slightly and tell him what I made for him. "I made you a No-Bake Fresh Strawberry Pie for dinner and to drink I made you a Strawberry Lime Shake" I said as I went to sit down "and for yourself Light?" I heard him ask which made me look up to see a sight that almost took my breath away.
To many people what I'm seeing would be a strange sight to take someone's breath away but to me it wasn't strange at all, the way Ls face was laced with a childlike confusion just stole my breath for some reason and with his head cocked to the left and not the right with the sun setting in the background just increased why it was breath taking to me even though I was still mad at him.
"Umm I-I made myself a Sunshine Hummus Melt and Dandelion Root coffee" I said and I didn't miss Ls reaction which was a bit funny to me since he scrunched his face a bit at my drink but I don't see a reason for his reaction other than what the name indicates. "I think I know when I would like to visit Seven Minutes in Heaven" I said which resulted in L shaking his head slightly to get his thoughts together before taking up a serious expression which made me smile before talking again.
"Friday which is in two days but at a different time than what I said at headquarters" I said and L nodded before finishing his pie and drink "your cooking is amazing Light" I heard L praise and I nodded in thanks hopefully hiding my blush as I took a bite of my melt finishing it in that bite. After I cleaned up I headed towards Ls bedroom to see L sitting on a black Alaskan King bed with white pillows while he was on his MacBook pro that was introduced this year and gave away fifty copies to the first fifty people to buy one.
He was one of the lucky ones I'm guessing, I did get a new laptop though a Sony VAIO VGN-TX27GP (6) which I think is alright considering it hasn't crashed majorly or at all since I got it so I'm glad for that. "Are you going to bed Light?" I heard L ask as he looked up from his laptop "yes I am I'll be right back but first where's the rest room at?" I asked and he pointed to a large sleek black door and I nodded as I went to my black Izod Varsity 28-inch Expandable Spinner Upright Suitcase and grabbed my black night robe so L won't see my tattoo and my cuts I don't want him asking about what the tattoo means just yet.
Though the other reason is so he won't see my scars and KC gang kill numbers that I'm pretty sure he's seen before that are located on my lower back, I was changed into my robe when I entered the room not missing the stare L was giving me. "Yes L?" I asked when I got into the bed making sure my tattoo was covered by the piece of fabric connected to the robe "why are you wearing a bath robe to bed?" he answered with another question which annoyed me slightly.
"If it bothers you that much then can you sleep on the couch" I said more than asked "you don't want me to see your tattoo?" he asked me making my blood turn cold. "No I don't want you asking questions" I said falling asleep without hearing anymore words from L which I was sad and happy about.
A/N: Please tell me if this is horrible or I need to change this in anyway because most the reviews I got in my other stories I'm trying to implement into my other stories such as this one that have to do with the advise, and I have no idea what to call this chapter so if any of you have any ideas please tell me in a review because I'm at a loss for a chapter name since I want it to have something to do with the chapter but mainly to do with Ls' decision to go with Light instead of Kira or both Light and Kira. Plus as usual my least popular multi chapter story is this one while my most popular multi chapter story is Demon but Human.
1) He won't be able to find them because he has to do well in college courses so he can gain information on Light and Kira because if he does bad in that school he'll get suspended or expelled, and because he chose Light as the ally in the case he doesn't have any reason to ask Kira anything about them.
2) tulips, roses, chrysanthemums, tiger lilies, petunias, orchids, bluebells, buttercups, daffodils, about five other flowers and of course Calla Lilies. (Not included in the other five flowers)
3) Sorry I forgot to mention this in the first chapter I basically just started saying what exactly the things the characters in this specific chapter use and I'm going to continue with that so the image you get when you read this if you get an image at all. I'm mainly saying that because of how creative I am I see way too many stories as a motion picture instead of as a story so I tend to get them confused with a show or the anime, I'm mentioning this in case there are others that are like that as well.
4) She said "are you okay light?"
5) I know this isn't a normal eye color, I have a link to the eye color chart I'm going to use for characters I made up such as the KC gang but because I'm not sure if I'm able to paste it on here I'm going to ask if you want to know what the eye color looks like and you want the link for it you can PM me for it if you're able to because I have anxiety about breaking rules and I can't find any rule about pasting a google picture link on here.
6) I would have gone with an Alienware laptop but the years that they were introduced because of working with dell doesn't match the year I placed this in, the year that I saw that an Alienware laptop which is by the way durable which is the reason I wanted to use it was introduced sometime in the year of 2011. Which I chose the year 2006 because Light would be fifteen and I know the age in college for the real world is around eighteen or higher and in the anime Light was eighteen when he entered college but for some reason I didn't want him to be the age he was suspected of being Kira in the anime to be in this at this time because at the moment Light doesn't have the Death Note and also because the age that Light broke up with Jason and the year Light graduates doesn't calculate either.
So as I mentioned earlier please review ideas for a name for this chapter because I don't want to leave the chapter name blank, that's strange to me because I don't want my stories to have a no name chapter or title, and also again if this is horrible please tell me I like to hear any review whether it's bad or not so please review and thank you for reading this story it means a lot more than many could imagine. Goodbye for now thank you again for reading.
