Well, here's chapter 8. And if you're wondering, I have decided who Grace will have a romance with, but don't worry, it's only a little bit, and there won't be any lemons. (I can't write lemons, I suck at them ;_;)
Anyway, I already have the story planned out, I just have to write it.
Today, I shall post at least three or four chapters, it wil make up for the days I've missed.
I do not own Death Note or it's characters.
Enjoy
"Another Death Note?" Light asked. "Don't you think that's going a bit too far?"
"Think about it. You five somehow managed to come to this world from your own. If you could, a Death Note could too." I explained.
"She could be right, Light. To tell you the truth, Grace, I haven't said anything about the cause of deaths for these people. Forty-five-percent of the victims died by some kind of accident, the other fifty-five-percent died of heart attacks."
"But, how did you know that these deaths weren't normal deaths?"
"Well, it first hit me when a few people died at exactly 4pm from heart attacks. Coincidence? No, of course not. Plus, these deaths were in one area."
"So, if could be a single person killing for fun?"
"Maybe the killer thought that it would be wise to kill them using heart attacks or accidents, this way it won't seem suspicious." he explained, dropping a few sugar cubes into his tea. "I already have a plan as to how we're going to capture this killer. Since we know his location, well, we know the area. The killer is somewhere in the U.S. So, we'll be splitting into three groups of two whilst moving to different states, looking for people with a Death Note."
"Ryuzaki, that will take too long, especially since there's so much ground to cover, and with only six people." Light said.
"Yes, you're right. I must be thinking too far ahead, besides, if the killer knew that we were onto him, he would most likely move to another area, it will turn into a wild goose chase, we'll have to think of something else." he said, dropping more sugar cubes into his sweet tea. He picked up a teaspoon and stirred it. He took a sip and added. "If only we had more people, it would make our job much easier."
My phone began to ring.
'Crap, I forgot to turn it off. L even said that I needed to' I thought.
I took it out of my pocket to turn it off, but L grabbed it out of my hands and pressed it against his ear. "Hello?"
"Ryuzaki, give that back!" I yelled, trying to get the phone off of him.
L stood up and wandered to another part of the room. "Oh, I see." he said, he turned and gave the phone back to me. "It's for you."
I took it off of him and pressed it against my ear. "Grace, who in the hell was that?" Ellie asked.
"He's just a friend."
She gasped. "Is it one of those guys you stayed at the hotel with?"
"Kind of, what did you want?"
"I can't believe it, you have a boyfriend! When can I meet him?"
"Ellie! He's not my boyfriend." I yelled a little too defensively. A little too loud too, since the others overheard me.
"I totally knew it! What's his name?"
"Ellie, seriously, we're just friends."
"Lies! Come on, what's his name?"
"We call him L. Listen, Ellie, I really got to go, what did you want?"
"Well, I was going to ask you to come have lunch with me or something, but maybe we could have lunch with this L person, he sounded kind of cute."
"I don't think that's such a good idea."
"Why not?" she asked.
'Oh God, this is not going well, I'll just have to go along with it. Ellie's smart, she might figure out the truth if I try to convince her like this.'
I sighed and moved to a different room so they couldn't hear me.
"I was planning on keeping him a secret from everyone, but since you already figured, I guess I have no choice."
"I knew it!"
"But, you can't tell anyone, okay? Especially, my mum, she'll freak out."
"Got it. So, can he come along too?"
I sighed. "Fine."
She told me the location of a café that was nearby, then I hung up the phone, put it in my pocket and I dragged myself into the other room, trying to figure out a way to tell L.
"L, could I speak to you a sec?" I asked.
L followed me into another room and said. "I'm sorry about that, Grace-san. But I can't stand it when someone's phone goes off when I'm in the middle of speaking."
"Well, thanks to you, my friend thinks that you're my boyfriend. And, now she wants to go out for lunch with the both of us tomorrow. You have no choice to go, since she heard your voice, if any of the others go instead, she would tell instantly."
He put his thumb in his mouth. "I see. Well, I guess I have no choice but to go." he said, smiling at me.
'Why the hell is he smiling like that at me?'
Grace is screwed. XD
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter, the next chapter will be up in an hour or so.
