~Your POV~
I brought home my numerous photos of the boot print and the broken lock. No fingerprints on the lock, only the print on the floor.
I immediately opened up several online shoe stores and looked for boots that matched the print in the photos.
I eventually found the pair.
"Lawliet, come look!"
Lawliet leaned over at my screen. The two separate windows open. One of the photos, and one of a pair of Mudd boots priced at 35$. (Using American $ bc I don't know anything about foreign countries money and the average price of things using that currency.)
"They're the same aren't they?" Lawliet said.
"Yeah. What shoe size do you think that print is?" I asked.
"Definitely a wide fit shoe. Probably a 7-8 in mens."
"Okay...." I opened up a document and typed in my new information.
Mudd boots, 7-8 men's wide fit.
I inserted a photo of the print and a screenshot of the boots that matched. I checked the time.
"It's 11 P.M.?!" I quickly shut my computer.
"I need to go to bed," I sighed and got up.
"Alright, goodnight Yume." He gave me a quick kiss on the cheek and I blushed.
I found my sheets not nearly as comforting as they used to be. I was drained from my work, but plagued but the thought of Misa, kidnapped, afraid.... Or worse.
I got out of bed. There was no way I was going to get a peaceful sleep. I was going to go to Lawliet, but I stopped in my tracks.
There, on the floor, was a muddy boot print. The exact same one that was in Misa's house.
I grabbed a towel out of the bathroom, and wiped up the print. Nobody needed to know. (Y/N behavior, like- sir you are being ignorant and stupid) I walked out and sat down at the table next to Lawliet.
"I can't sleep," I told him.
"Do you want me to come to bed with you?"
Before I could respond, I saw another one. Another print, next to Lawliet's chair. Identical to the previous ones. I didn't say anything.
"Yeah, that would be nice I think," I told him finally.
He closed his laptop and stood. He took my hand and guided me to the bedroom.
We laid down on the bed, and covered up nicely with the blankets. I laid close to Lawliet, but I didn't touch him.
He then wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close to him.
"I love you Y/N. You know that don't you?"
"Of course. I love you too."
He kissed my cheek and we finally went to sleep. Or, I did, at least. However, even though I slept the whole night, I was plagued by nightmares. Boots, muddy prints, and Kumo. I hadn't even thought about Kumo for a long time.
I suppose I was afraid.
Afraid Misa would end up like Kumo did.
Dead.
