„No, seriously! Nothing is going on! " You fought back against Watari's allegations. He kept pestering you about your relationship with L, and it was about time you would defend yourself.
„A/n, I'm a lot older and more experienced than you. I can tell when something is up. Talk to me. "
„.. This feels a little childish.. It's like I'm in high school again." You chuckled to loosen the air.
„Not at all. Just be honest. "
„..." You stared at the floor and fidgeted with your fingers. It was like you forgot how to speak all of a sudden.
You didn't want to admit anything, but denying it wouldn't be right either. You hoped Watari could piece the signs together.
„I think I get the idea now. " Watari flashed you a closed-eyed smile.
You let out a deep sigh. „What do you think I should do?"
„I think you're on the right path. I've talked to L about this as well. I have a sneaky suspicion that the feeling is more mutual than you think."
Your gut twisted at those words.
Really? So, all along, L was hiding his feelings? But why? That isn't like him at all. I feel he would be more straightforward than that. Is it maybe the whole Kira investigation that threw him off? No, thats not it.
Quickly snapping out of thought, you had to find the quickest way out. L was waiting!
„-I better get going. I don't want to keep him waiting, right? Bye!" You waved and ran off with the chocolates.
At least that was the plan. Your heart skipped a few beats when you were greeted by Matsuda standing at the door, eavesdropping. One thing about L is that he takes his sweets very seriously, and you taking a 5-minute delay probably ticked him off.
Did he send Matsuda to eavesdrop?
Whatever the reason was, there was no way you could let ANYONE hear about that.
Quickly closing the door behind you, you pushed Matsuda to the side where no one could see you.
"Matsuda! What were you doing?!"
"Uhh.. I was about to go in!"
"Did you hear anything..?" You asked nervously.
"Maybe a thing or two.." He scratched his head.
"Whatever you do, Don't. Let. Ryuzaki. Know. Promise?"
"Promise!" He raised his hand as an oath.
"Alright then. Let's go back."
The walk back was short, but awkward.
"So.. Did I miss anything?" It was more of a filler question to get the conversation moving.
"I'm responsible for appearing on SakuraTv... We have a whole plan to frame Higuchi." Matsuda stated confidently.
"Is that so? I'm sure you'll do great." You complimented.
Now in the room with everyone else, you saw Light on the telephone with who you assumed to be Namikawa.
You quietly made your way to L, tapping his shoulder. He looked up at you with his tired eyes, and you silently slid the plate next to him so as to not make any suspicious noise.
"Thank you, A/n." L grabbed your arm and sat you down next to himself, nodding toward Light as if he was telling you to listen. The unexpected contact reflected on your cheeks.
