This will be the last chapter for today. My creativity today has run out. ;_; I promise that I'll write more tomorrow.
I do not own Death Note or it's characters.
Enjoy
Dear Diary,
Ryuk was telling me of the Shinigami Realm being a real thing. Could it really be true? If he did lie, how would it benefit him?
He told me that the others will be gone in a few months, and that I can't get attached to anyone since I can't follow them back to their universe. I guess I don't really have a chance with Mello then.
It doesn't matter anyway. I'm sure I wouldn't get the confidence to tell him anyway.
I have to go now. - Grace
I closed the diary and put the pen aside.
I rubbed my eyes, stood up and left my bedroom. I walked towards the office.
'We only have two to three months to solve this case' I thought, sitting down on the sofa. I was alone, but the computer was left turned on. There was a cup of tea on the coffee table. Still warm.
Suddenly, music started to play. It was loud and it was coming from Matt's room. It sounded like something I would listen to. Then, I remembered that Matt liked the music in this universe.
I looked at my watch on my wrist. It was 5pm already.
I rolled my eyes and sat closer to the coffee table. Opening the pot with the sugar cubes in, and I started to stack them on top of each other, singing along to the music coming from Matt's room.
Music was like a motivational coach to my everyday actions. I often had my ears plugged with headphones, listening to music. Whenever I was upset, I would listen to music, singing along would often make me feel better. Sometimes I wonder if it really is the music helping me, or me singing did the trick, either way, it worked.
I was about to put the second last sugar cube on the top of my tower when I heard a voice from behind. "You have a beautiful singing voice."
I jumped and accidentally knocked the tower over. Mello chuckled and walked to the coffee table and started to pick up the sugar cubes that were scattered across the floor.
"Thanks." I mumbled, getting on my knees to pick up the sugar cubes. Mello looked down at me with an amused look on his face.
"Sorry about your tower." he said.
"Don't worry about it." I muttered, putting the sugar cubes I had collected onto the coffee table. I felt my cheeks warm up as he continued to stare at me.
"You look kind of flushed, are you felling all right?" he asked, pressing his hand against my forehead.
I nodded.
"L tells me that you found out how we got here and that the killer has a Death Note and is using it to kill." he said, putting sugar cubes onto the coffee table.
I nodded. "It's a long story."
"Don't worry, L explained everything to me."
He reached into his pocket and pulled out a wrapped chocolate bar. He ripped the silver wrapping off of it and snapped a bit off and handed it to me.
I took it and mumbled a thanks, as I put it in my mouth.
He took a bite out it himself and said. "I haven't been able to eat chocolate for ages. This case is really time consuming."
"Yeah, I haven't been able to see Ellie or my family in a while. I've been so busy."
"I bet your mother is worrying about you."
I nodded. "She worries about me too much."
"She doesn't want to lose you."
"I know how she feels." I said. I didn't want to watch the others disappear into the other universe, knowing that I can't follow them.
"I'm sure everyone has been put in a situation like that. At the moment, I'm put into a situation similar to that. But, I know that it's going to go in a few months and I can't do anything about it." he said.
I looked up at him, wondering what he meant.
"Are you afraid to lose someone, Mello?" I asked.
"Isn't everybody?"
"I suppose you're right." I muttered, as I continued to sing along quietly to the music coming from Matt's room.
We put the last of the sugar cubes onto the coffee table and we stood up.
"Thanks for helping me." I said.
"No problem." he said, smiling before he turned and left.
I sighed and sat down on the sofa. It was no use. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't get over Mello. I guess I really was in love.
D'awww. Grace and Mello make such a great couple. XD
I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I'll write more tomorrow. (If I have the time)
