You sat on the sofa in the hotel room watching tv and it had a been 8 days since Beyond Birthday had been arrested.

Matt and Mello were packing away their equipment as it was being transported to Japan in two days time for a new case that L had been working on for the last four days.

Near sat by the coffee table playing with a toy car, everything was relaxed again and to quiet.

Matt jumped over the sofa's back, then landed half on the sofa and half on top of you.

' Matt.. ' You said with a giggle as you pushed his legs off you. ' That hurt a bit you know..' You then playfully punched Matt's arm.

You then flicked over the tv channel.

' Sorry..' Said Matt. ' What you watching ?' He then rubbed his arm where you had punched him.

Near glanced over his shoulder at Matt. ' A idiot... ' He said as a little smile crept across his face.

Matt leaned forward and ruffled up Near's white hair. ' Awww you're so funny... '

Near pushed Matt's hand away from his hair. ' Idiot...' He said as he then ran his toy car up Matt's arm.

' I'm agreeing with Near for once.. ' Said Mello as he sat down on a sofa chair and put his feet up onto the coffee table. He then took a chocolate bar out of his jacket pocket and ripped off some of the wrapper. ' I'm watchig a idiot too. '

' Play nice boys.. ' You said with a giggle as you put the tv's remote control down onto the coffee table.

Matt leaned back onto the sofa and crossed his arms. ' Blondie and albino just went tag team on my ass... ' He said as he then leaned his head on your shoulder.

' You'll live...' You said as you patted Matt's arm gently and tried not to laugh.

Near watched Matt as he put his toy car to his lips. ' Baby. '

' I'm agreeing again. ' Said Mello with a laugh and then he took a bite of his chocolate bar.

You put your hand over your mouth as you tried not to laugh and you looked to the tv as the news came on.

In todays news the serial killer behind the murder case know as L.A. Serial Locked Room Killings as been given a life sentence and will be serving his sentence in a California prison. His identity is still unknown...

' At least Beyond Birthday is behind bars now. ' Said Mello as he watched the tv. ' Just another couple of thousands criminals to get of the streets and we could live in a perfect world. '

' Would you really want to live in a world like that ? ' Said Matt as he lifted his head from your shoulder. ' L would be out of a job, you Mello would be getting fat of chocolate, Near would be studying school work, _ would be helping out at The Wammy house and I'd be gaming 24 hours a day. '

' Speaking of L as anyone seen him for the last few days... ' Said Mello. ' Whats he been doing in his room ?'

' L as been investigating a number of unnatural death that have been taking place in Japan. ' Said Near as he played with his car. ' All the victims have been criminals so far. '

' Yeah we know of the case Near. ' Said Matt. ' But I see what Mello is getting at, he as not been acting like his normal self. '

' I'll go talk to him and see if he is okay.' You said as you got up and walked off to L's bedroom.

You stood outside of L's hotel bedroom door and knocked on the door three times.

' Yes. ' Said L from the other side of the door.

' It's _. ' You said as you opened the door and peeped inside of L's room. ' I'm checking if you are okay. '

L was sitting in the middle of his bedroom on the floor as he typed on his laptop and he was surrounded by cases files.

' I see. ' Said L as he stood up and glanced over to you. ' Please come in. '

You stepped into L's room , then shut the door behind you and walked over to L.

' So how are you feeling ?' You asked as you stepped over a case file.

' I'm fine. ' Answered L as he watched you stepped over another case file and then put his thumb to his lips.

You sat at the end of L's bed and smiled at him.

' We just wondered if you were okay L. ' You said.

' We ? ' Said L as he gave you a curious look.

' Yeah me and the boys... ' You said as you picked up a piece of paper of the bed next to you.

L walked over to his bed, then sat next to you and reached for the piece of paper. ' I see. ' He said as took the paper from you between two of his fingers and then studied it for a moment. ' _ there is something that I have been meaning to talk to you about. '

You glanced towards L. ' What is it ?'

' I was wondering if you would like to accompany me to Japan. ' Said L. ' Watari as been delayed longer than he thought at The Wammy House on business. '

' Really ? ' You said with surprise in your voice. ' I thought I was going back to England.'

' Well the choice is up to you _. ' Said L as he placed the piece of paper down beside him.

You sat and thought for a few moments. ' I loved to come. '

' Really ? ' Said L as he put thumb to his lips and glanced at you. ' You'd accompany me to Japan ?'

You nodded your head at L. ' Yeah, who else is going to look after my boys.' You said with a smile.

' Thank you. ' Said L as a little smile crept to his lips.
