Anna's POV

"No," I whined as my phone went off obnoxiously once again. I rolled into L, who was still half asleep.

"Why do you leave your phone on in the first place?"

I sighed, "In case someone important calls." I turned toward my phone.

"Who would call you? Literally everyone you know lives with you." L argued pressing his face into the pillows.

"Obviously not if my phone's ringing." I said reaching to pick it up.

L hit me with a pillow, "Just answer your stupid phone and go back to sleep." He moaned.

I picked up the phone and checked the caller ID, squinting against the light. Sighing, I flipped open the phone. "Misa, it's two in the morning. Someone better be dying." Sobs erupted on the other end. "Fuck, I'm sorry, don't do that. What's wrong?" I listened and L sat up beside me, wrapping his arms around my waist. "Okay, Misa I'll talk to L and call you back alright? Okay talk to you soon."

"You gave Misa Amane your phone number?" He asked as I placed my phone back on the nightstand.

"Yes I did. We grew very close in the last few days of the investigation." I answered.

He pulled me back down and held me to his chest, "Well what did she want?"

"We need to fly back to Japan. Mr. Yagami died. He had a major heart attack."

I now had L's full attention, "Please tell me there isn't another Kira."

"No, nothing like that. The doctors think it was brought on by stress. After Light was convicted, Mr. Yagami threw himself into his work and he ended up working himself to death."

L stared down at me, "All that from a thirty second phone conversation?"

"She talks pretty fast. Matsuda wants us to go out for the funeral. They're having it in a few days."

L watched me, "I don't know."

I sighed, "L, it's not a case and I'm alright to fly, it's only the first trimester. Please, L?" I asked looking up to him.

He seemed to be thinking. "Let me talk to Wammy tomorrow and see what he thinks."

"Seriously, L? Tell me what you think." I said slightly annoyed. Ever since we'd gotten into that fight the night he came home almost two weeks ago, he wouldn't do anything without consulting Wammy. "I just want to see what he thinks so we can do what's best for everyone." I sighed to myself, burying my face into the crook of his neck, "L, you are fully aware that you and I are having a baby in about six months, right?"

L turned to me resting his hand gently against my waist, "Yes?"

"L, as much as I hate to inform you of this, Wammy's not going to be around forever. We can't keep running to him every time we have to make a decision. You've always been the one to call the shots, but if I have to start because you're refusing to make decisions I can do that. So I'm going to ask you again, L. Are we going or not?" I gave L a minute to digest what I had said.

Finally he sighed, "Alright. You can call Misa back in the morning and tell her we'll go. Just you and I, though. Not the boys and everyone." I nodded, happy to have him making his own decision.

"Sounds good." I pressed my lips to his cheek and cuddled into him. "I'm exhausted so I'm going to go back to sleep." I yawned, feeling safer as L wrapped his arms around me.

"Alright."

L's POV

I stared up at the ceiling. Mr. Yagami was dead. How Anna could sleep after that news was beyond me, not that I was complaining, she needed to rest. She insisted that I did too since we weren't going to be sleeping much once the baby was here. The baby…. I looked down at Anna in my arms and bit the inside of my cheek. I wasn't sure what to do about that. Don't get me wrong I was ecstatic to be a father, but… it was all so sudden. It's not like we planned for this to happen. I wasn't sure if I was ready to have a baby. I could barely take care of Near, Matt, and Mello and they were practically grown up already. There was no way I was going to be able to sleep. Not with all these thoughts running through my mind. I got out of bed, careful not to wake up Anna and headed down to the room of the only person who would be up at this ungodly hour. "Matt." As soon as I said his name, the light from his game went off and he was lying down. "Matt, I know you're awake. I need to talk to you."

Matt turned on the bed side light and pretended to wipe sleep from his eyes, "L? Hey, I was just having the craziest dream."

"Nice try. I want to talk to you about something." I said sitting on the edge of his bed.

Matt smirked, "If it has to do with Anna, Near's room is literally across the hall from yours."

"It's not Anna. It's this baby. I don't know if I'm ready for this." I confessed.

Matt moved away slightly, "I think it's a little too late for that. Shouldn't you be talking to Anna about this? She is the one who's pregnant after all."

I shook my head, "I can't. She's so happy and she's taken care of you three forever. She's good with kids. I can barely handle you three." I said.

Matt sighed, "Well, I'm no expert on this stuff since I'm, you know, fourteen, but I really don't think I'm the person who needs to hear this. Anna's always saying you guys are a team, right? I think this is a big part of that team thing. Also I think she'd be pretty mad if you didn't tell her."

I sighed, "I guess you're right."

"Of course I'm right. Now, I'm going back to sleep if you don't mind." Matt rolled over.

I sighed and held out my hand expectantly, "Give me the game Matt."

Anna's POV

I stirred as the bed moved beside me. I opened my eyes a little bit, "L? What are you doing?"

"I had to talk to Matt." L kissed me delicately as if he were afraid he'd break me if he was too rough.

"About what?" I asked, unsure of what he would need to talk to Matt about at three in the morning.

He didn't respond for a moment, "Anna, are you worried about having this baby?"

I blinked sleep out of my eyes, "What do you mean?"

L sighed, evidently not excited to have to explain himself, "Do you think we're ready?"

Now wide awake, L had my full attention, "I don't think ready is the right word. I don't think anyone is ever really ready to be put in charge of another life, but I think we'll be okay." I answered honestly.

"What if we're not?" L asked.

I ran my hands over my eyes, "L, where is this coming from? Do you not want the baby?" I asked starting to get concerned. Did he not want the baby? I thought he was happy about this.

"It's not that. It really isn't that, Anna. I've just been thinking… I can barely take care of the boys. I don't think I'm going to be okay." I sat up as he did. "I don't know if I'm cut out to be a dad, Anna."

"Hey, look at me for a second." He did, looking worried. "L, do you know why I'm not worried about this? I'm not worried because I know that we are going to be alright. You are going to be an amazing father. I told you that during the case when you were working with Near."

"It took me twelve years to do that for Near."

I cupped his cheek in my hand, "It doesn't matter. In the end you did it and you've always been there for him in one way or another. You've been there for all of them. Besides L, we're in this together alright? We are going to be alright."

Before I knew what was happening, L pressed his lips against mine and laid me back on the bed. My hands automatically entangled themselves in his hair, pulling him as close to me as humanly possible. When he broke away for lack of air, he rested his forehead against mine, "Do you promise we'll be okay?" He asked.

I nodded and brought him back down to kiss him once again, "I promise."

L's POV

"Yeah, we'll leave this afternoon. No, we don't need to be picked up, we got it. Alright I'll see you soon, Misa." I heard Anna's voice speaking softly.

I opened my eyes to see her already dressed sitting on the bed. "Anna?"

She turned to look down at me and smiled. "Morning, sleeping beauty."

I rolled my eyes, "We're leaving this afternoon?" I asked.

She nodded, "Yeah, so get dressed. I already packed for you and told Wammy we were leaving. He's going to take care of the boys." I nodded and pulled Anna back onto the bed. I kissed her sweetly, holding her tightly to me. "L, we really need to get up." She mumbled against my lips. I loosened my grip on her and she pulled away slightly. After a moment she kissed me again.

"Ew!" We broke apart to see Mello standing in the door, looking thoroughly disgusted.

"That's what happens when you don't knock." Anna said sitting up.

Mello scowled at her, annoyed. "Wammy said the car is ready to go. Where are you going?"

Anna looked to me then back to Mello, "I'll explain in a bit. Come on, let's find your brothers." She said ushering Mello out the door and then turned back to look at me, "You get dressed." I sighed but did as I was told. Within minutes I was outside next to the car with Anna. Wammy drove us to the airport and we said our goodbyes before Anna and I boarded our plane. Now all there was to do was wait to land back in Japan. Anna crawled up next to me, resting her head against my shoulder and just as always, she fell asleep before the plane could take off.

A/N: Yes, I know it's short, but I wanted to start the next chapter off in Japan. Anyways, I have a new one shot out called Tell Me A Secret. So if you want to go ready that you are more than welcome to! That's all for now.
