"Watari, I am going to follow a lead on Koi." L said, pulling on a jacket. Watari didn't even look up.
"Do you really have a lead?" he asked gently. L stared straight ahead.
"Yes."
Watari smiled. L had no idea, but he would be doing something that would give him an idea.
L turned back to the old man and asked quietly, "Do you have tickets for the subway?"
She opened her eyes, feeling as though she was stoned or something. She tried to roll over and strech, but she couldn't. Her legs and arms were bound together.
"What's wrong, Koi?" B asked, his hands deep in his pockets. She looked up at him.
"I'm just a little tight, that's all." B grinned.
"Are you now?" She shrugged.
"Yeah, I guess. So how long do you plan on holding me here?" BB smiled sweetly.
"Just until you die or L get's here."
He swung back and forth from the standing grip, as Koi stared down at her novel intently. They were on their way to the warf with A, B, and Matt and Mello. Watari had accompanied them for once, and was wrangling the younger ones as L and Koi rode together. L swung over to her and poked her nose gently and swung back, but she still didn't move. He swung back and snatched her clip out of her hair, and swung back again, clipping it in his own ebony tresses. She smiled softly to herself, but refused to look up. Finally, L had enough of her ignoring him. He swung over and planted a chaste kiss on her smiling lips, and swung away. Koi finally looked up and giggled at the sight of her panda-eyed sweet loving sort-of boyfriend with a tuft of hair clipped up in her hairclip, swinging back and forth. She just shook her head at the 17 year old boy and said,
"I can't take you anywhere, can I?"
He smiled at the memory, and began swinging on the standing grip, hearing her voice say again and again,
"I can't take you anywhere, can I?"
It hit him.
I can't take you anywhere, can I?
The warf.
That's where B had her.
WHEEEE new chappie!!
