Author's Note: I don't own Death Note, but I own Alex.
I woke up on the couch. The first thing I noticed was L sitting in the same spot, watching the videos from last night and eating marshmallows. He was also drinking coffee, probably just sugar with some coffee added to it. I tried sitting up, but found that that was a mistake. My back and shoulder were cramping from sleeping on the couch. I have a bad back which doesn't help the problem. I winced at the pain that shot up my spine. "Are you feeling okay? I don't think sleeping on a couch could be very comfortable." he said without even looking at me. "If you knew it would hurt me then why didn't you wake me up, so I could walk to my room and sleep on my bed?" I questioned irritated. "You looked peaceful, so I didn't want to wake you." he said childishly.
I ignored him and looked at the TV screen where the video was playing. "You're still watching them? How many were there?" I asked. "I have been re-watching the videos over and over to see if I notice anything different that I hadn't catch the first time. As you can see, I would like to go through any evidence thoroughly." he answered. I still couldn't see how it was possible to stay awake as much as he did. Especially in that crouched position of his. "How do you not lose balance in that position?" I had to ask. He glanced at me then back to the screen.
"I have sat like this so my deductive reasoning wouldn't decrease, so throughout the years this position became normal for me. It's similar to a 'normal' person sitting in a crossed leg position." he said. I still don't see how he does it. If he was in a car and that car jerked, he would fall over. The people sitting in the normal position wouldn't. I was about to voice my thought when L cut in. "I usually don't sit this way in a vehicle unless I have to." he said like he could read my mind.
"You really got to stop that." I said. "Stop what?" he asked as he tilted his head. "Stop answering me before I even ask." I demanded. He just ignored me. Meanie. I decided to jump in the shower before the tack force get here. I got up to leave and was at the door when L said aloud, "Light will joining us as well today." After that, I continued going to my room. I took a shower and threw on a white t-shirt with a Beetle's band logo on it and black pajama bottoms. If L could be comfortable, then why can't I? I dried my hair and threw it up into a messy bun.
I headed back to the main room and the tack force was there. I walked in at the same time Light walked in. He looked at everybody and then laid eyes on me. I suddenly felt self-conscious looked away. "Hey, Alex." he said. I froze for a second then turned to him. "Hey, Light." I spoke up. My face started to heat up. Was I blushing? I walked away and sat on the couch beside L nervously. I hoped Light didn't see me blush.
I had forgotten that he was coming today. Even though he told me just a few hours ago. I think I'm starting to develop short term memory loss cause this actually happens a lot. He came and sat down beside me. All of the sudden, the task force showed up just in time.
L asked him if he could watch the video that "Kira" sent to the tv station. After the video ended, Light gave his conclusions. His were just like L's. That would mean L would suspect him less. But I don't believe L's words when it comes to percentages. He seemed to make it less than it really was. I knew when he said there was a five percent chance of Light being Kira, he meant there was a seventy-five percent chance. L is never wrong, so why would be wrong about Light.
The conclusion was that this wasn't the original Kira, but instead a second Kira. I guess the killings were the same or how they went about it or something. I really wasn't paying that close attention. Light was sitting so close and I was blushing so hard. This is why I was surprised that I got the top three at To-Oh. I suck at concentrating. That was just straight luck.
The day went on and soon became night. I was tired from the tension I sensed between Light and L. I lied down and for once, looked back on everything that's happened. Kira really wears people out. I'm glad I'm not L. It would be too much trouble. L also has a tendency to wear you out too. I'm always on edge with him because you never know what he's thinking.
