I do not own Death Note
Chapter 8
Light was laying on his bed with his hands clasped over his stomach when Aaron walked in. His big, black boots echoed in the hallway and then halted in Light's doorway. His shoulders were squared and his head held high. He stood like a solidier, with his hands clasped behind his back. "I will find this significant other of yours and I will kill him mercilessly." His low voice made Light jump. Aaron stepped forward with one of his extremely long legs and placed a grimy hand on Light's inner thigh. "Don't worry, I bite." He winked at Light, a wink that made Light's skin crawl. Aaron smirked and backed out of the room before turning and heading on his way down the hallway.
Light was furious and he had to keep from screaming by gritting his teeth. "Ryuzaki, I need you to stay inside until I get back and check in with me every thirty minutes even if I'm sleeping."
"But-" L sighed.
"Do as I say! I need to know you're alive."
L paused. "Whatever you need."
Light nodded but then realized L couldn't see him, "Okay."
"Get some sleep or else no deal."
Light smiled at L's commanding tone. "Yes, sir." He mock saluted no one and snuggled into his warm covers.
Back at headquaters L heard Light's quiet snoring and it made him smile. He's been a mess since Light left, he hadn't showered in days. He was wearing the same thing he had on when Light left. The control room was littered with all types of trash and man did it reek. L was twitchy and Watari took notice. "Sir, you need to rest."
"I'm fine!" he snapped, then he covered the microphone and repeated himself quieter. "I'm fine."
"Light will be fine if you were to take a nap." L nodded slowly. "Give the monitering a break, he's asleep." L finally gave in and set up a little bed on the floor of the control room to sleep in.
"Wake me in thirty minutes."
"Yes sir."
Light woke from a start. "I'm fine!" was shouted into his ear. Good, L's finally getting some sleep. Light slid out of his bed and tip toed out of the room, careful not to wake Jordan. The lights blinded him as he got used to them. His bare feet slapped on the cold tile floor. He took out his earpiece and put it in his pocket, just in case L woke up he didn't need to know what he was doing.
Light suddenly stopped when he heard shouts coming from an ajar door. "I swear to god once I know your true name I'll kill you!" Aaron shouted at someone.
"That won't be necessary, I doubt we'll be together that much longer." came Ace's calm as ever reply.
Crap, Light thought, he knows I'm busting them. Light hurried down the hallway past the door and sprinted down the stairs, two stairs at a time. He was breathing heavier when he reached the bottom and extremely glad the hallways were vacant. He quietly continued down the hallway and walked into the lounge room. Light stared at the desk in the middle of the room it was dark with very little light seeping in through the windows.
Light carefully walked up to the desk afraid that someone would jump out with a gun. He ran his hand over the locked drawer, the Death Note had to be in there, there was no other place it could be hidden in this damn building.
He scanned the floor and spied a stray bobby pin, he scooped it up in his hand and knelt in front of the desk. Light slid it into the key hole and easily got it open, lock picking was a handy skill to have. He opened the drawer and gasped at the sight, the Death Note. He nervously glanced over his shoulder, someone could walk in at any second.
Light stared at the black book, then he reached into the drawer and picked it up. It felt like he had been zapped, memories flashed before his eyes and his head pounded. He saw everything. Light was horrified, he was Kira.
There was a growl behind him and the light snapped on, "Welcome back, Kira."
