"Ne, Reborn?"

"What is it, ______?"

"Tell me a bedtime story!"

"............."

"Please! I can't sleep, and I'm really tired!" you pouted, clasping your hands and giving the slightly amused hitman your best puppy eyes. He sighed, and sat on the bed next to you. You cheered, and snuggled down under your blankets.

"Once upon a time," he began," there was an intelligent, handsome mafia hitman. He was the best in his business, number 1 to everything he did. He-" you interrupted him with a poke on the cheek.

"Can we please get past the part where you praise your whole being, and get on with the actual story?" you huffed. Reborn smirked.

"Since you asked so nicely...Okay, so this hitman was happy for awhile, before he realized that something was missing from his life. He wondered everyday what that something could be, and the answer didn't come to him until that fateful day when he met a very special woman."

"This woman," he continued, watching your eyelids droop slowly," wasn't your everyday, boring female. She was very stubborn, childish, and feisty, but she was also smart, funny, and beautiful. She, too was wondering what was missing in her life, until she met the hitman. When their eyes met for the first time, they knew that they were looking at the very soul that made their being whole. When they touched for the first time, they knew that nothing would ever come between them. And when they kissed for the first time, there was only one thought that came to mind: true love." He chuckled softly as your eyes finally closed shut, and your breathing slowed down to a slow, quiet rhythm. Reborn leaned down to kiss you on the lips, brushing some loose hair strands away from your face.

"True love..."

L-chan: Ah, true love! The one thing that makes life worth it for some, and the major pain in the butt for others! So, again, there will be no RQ of drabble 27, because I would like people to vote for the RQ of drabble 26! Thank you!
