Chapter 3

He's mine and I won't share him

I sat down next to Ryuzaki and he blushed deeply as I leaned onto his warm side, he wrapped his strong arm around my waist reluctantly. I smiled widely without revealing my teeth and pressed against his side. He pulled me closely into him and I rested my finger tips on his heated chest a light pink brushing across my cheeks because of his heartbeat.

"I like you." Ryuzaki whispered softly.

"I love you." I replied playfully smirking now.

"I love you too." Matt butted in and I rolled my eyes.

"Hi Matt." I said and glanced back at my brother.

He sat down next to us and leaned against my side causing Ryuzaki to glare and childishly pull me onto his lap.

"Mine." He mouthed.

I giggled.

"Fine, Fine, lovebirds." Matt said and got up.

"What did you want to talk to us about?" I asked Matt before he could leave.

"Nothing really I'm just bored, Mello damaged my charger again and Mr. Quillish has to go buy a new one." Matt explained slowly.

"Hm. Then go away." I replied and laid down on Ryuzaki's chest.

Matt rolled his eyes and walked back into Wammy's House as me and Ryuzaki sat on the patio.

"I have to work on a case soon, I've been investigating it for a while from the laptops but soon I'm going to have to leave." Ryuzaki informed me.

"Let me come!" I begged him.

"You can't it's too dangerous." He replied in a caring but serious tone.

"Danger is my middle name!" I replied excitedly thinking of the adventures we could have.

"Ava." He growled in a tuff tone.

I frowned, "Ryuzaki… Aishiteru." I said the words I love you in his native tongue.

"I love you too." He said in his monotone, mysterious voice and I couldn't help but wonder if he meant it.

"Hey… are cases like this why you've sheltered everyone but Matt?" I questioned because I was rarely aloud on the computer.

"Yes, I suppose you could say Matt and I share a special relationship. It keeps everyone from finding out who I am."

"Oh, it's not a special relationship! Don't lie to me! He just has no damn sense of time!"

"Hnn, I'm not to sure about that Uni."

"You know, I own like half the worldwide companies here and I demoted the original owners to vice president."

"Oh? Is that why 500,000 dollars randomly appears in my bank account every month?"

"It was either you, Mr. Quillish, or Watari-san. Mr. Quillish would get it mixed up with orphanage stuff, which sucks. Watari would spend it on your cake, which also sucks. Though you being more responsible than I am in some sense would place it in a savings account I can open up later."

"Why do you have to do it in the first place?"

"I'm a minor…"

"Oh, I see Why only the three of us?"

"Er, well I got a letter from the government. It told me because I'm under the age of 18 I have to send the majority of my money to my relatives and or legal guardians. I presumed legal guardians meant, my caretaker (Mr. Quillish), the owner of the orphanage (Watari-san), and/or staff (you, Ryuzaki-kun)"

"Actually Legal Guardian would only mean the caretaker."

"Oh well Minnie will fix it later she always does even if I ask her too or not, her father used to be a lawyer."

"I see."

"Ryuzaki, tell me about yourself."

"Eh?" Ryuzaki was pretty taken aback by the questioned nobody had ever cared about him other than Watari.

"Why do you like strawberries so much?"

"They are the only sweet but healthy food I know of. It's how I keep myself from going over-weight."

"Didn't you tell Watari you burn off calories from thinking?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"It seemed to be a good idea at the time."

"You don't seem like it but your silly Ryuzaki-kun, very silly."

"-kun?"

"It fits. If you were anyone else I'd call you Ryuzaki-senpai, but your just not mature enough to fit the senpai category. Your too childish, especially with the fact you hate to lose."

This also took Ryuzaki aback, nobody could ever guess he was childish or that he hated to lose just from talking to him. How did she know him so well although they had only been together for a few months, this distracted him for what seemed to be eternity.

"Uni, what is a word that can describe a slightly irritating yet at the exact time amazing girl?"

"Bellum."

"Isn't that latin for beautiful?"

"It's Latin for Beautiful and War."

"Yes, that must be the word I was searching for. It's perfect."

"Sum Bellumne?"

"I'm sorry I only knew the word bellum could you please tell me what that means?"

"Sum meaning I am Bellum meaning beautiful/war and –ne basically forming it into a question. You were talking about me, right Ryuzaki-kun?"

"What is yes in latin?"

"Ita."

"Then… Ita. I was talking about you. May I ask how you know latin?"

"I don't. I picked em all off of old Latin phrases and animal names."

It wasn't a lie. I knew this would surprise him also, the best thing about Ryuzaki is if you take a moment… just a moment to care about his daily life. He is so easy to read, because whether he likes it or not, he's just human.

He stared for a while his mouth slightly open, and his eyes widened only a little. I could just barely tell he was surprised even now. You may think I'd get bored with this being I can already tell what he's thinking, but I need to make him crack completely. Call me evil, but I want to hear him scream and beg, and perhaps even cry… just a little.

We heard tiny footsteps. It was easy to recognize as Near's, he was the tiniest child here after all.

"So I was correct. You are L." He said staring down at Ryuzaki, our eyes widened.

"How did you know?" I asked him because I wanted him to know, more than anyone else in this orphanage.

A/N: CLIFFHANGAAAA! Haha, Sorry Sorry. Long wait and short chapter. I'm working on the next one I promise… is anyone even reading this? Like… please review. I know I know you hate my OC and L is OOC (only a little ((I hope)) I try my best).
