The Detective [Death Note] (L x Reader)

Chapter 1

It was a fine sunny day on a Monday morning, and though many would say it was the perfect day, there was nothing perfect about it. Exams were close by, and Kira was still on the loose.

You walked to school, wearing the normal school's uniform. You had your hands on the straps of your F/C backpack, your H/C, H/L hair blowing in the breeze. You loathed school. It was boring, and it wasn't like you needed to go there. You already had an extremely high IQ, higher than an average student's.

You were F/N L/N, the 4th best detective in the world, known as S/N (Second Name, kind of like "L"). You solved cases which L didn't take up. You weren't as popular as L, of course, but you knew you'd be better than him one day.

You had always looked up to L, ever since he became famous with his work. The murder of your parents also made you want to become a detective even more.

You had moved quite a bit after the death of your parents, using the money from the cases you solved. Now, you were in the Kanto region for 'further studies,' as you told everyone. What else would a Y/A (Your age) year old girl be there for?

No, you weren't here for further studies. You were here for the infamous Kira case. You knew L had taken it upon him to solve this case, but you felt that it would take more than just one person to do so.

Your school entered your field of vision, and you sighed. You really didn't feel like going, everyone seemed to hate school, except Yagami Light, a classmate of yours. His high grades and always being the top of the class made it seem as if he actually liked school. No matter, you just had to survive the day.

You entered the school gates, your friends rushing to your side.

"Hi, Y/N!" They said. You looked at your friends, Matsura Kanjiro and Iwasa Harumi.

"Hey, guys," you replied, looking towards Harumi, then at Matsura.

Harumi was short, about 5'3. She had brown hair which reached her waist, but she usually tied it in a ponytail. Harumi had a bubbly personality and was very cute, which was why she was loved by most of the students.

Kanjiro was tall, around 6'2. He wore black rimmed glasses and had blonde hair which was swept to the right. Unlike Harumi, he never really talked to people and was the quiet, mysterious one of class. Most of the girls, and some of the boys, were head over heels for him.

"Y/N, can you come over to my house after school?" Harumi asked you, a skip in her step, "Exams are close, and we could have a study group. We can easily learn from each other, too, since I'm good in Science, Kanjiro's good in Math, and you're good in English."

You thought for a second, thinking of going, but then shook your head in reply. You can't go, of course. You had to find some leads on Kira. Besides, you guys probably wouldn't study and would mostly likely waste your time on watching movies.

"Sorry, guys. I, uh... have to go somewhere today," you replied, trying to think up a believable excuse.

"Oh, where?" Kanjiro asked, casually removing his glasses and cleaning them with his napkin.

"Um, my, uh, Aunt is coming over today. I have to pick her up from the airport." You heard a sigh from Harumi.

"Y/N, you hardly ever hang out with us anymore!" She exclaimed, frowning.

"I'm sorry, guys! I just have a lot of work." You tried to explain, looking down at the ground.

Another sigh. "Fine. Come on, Kanjiro. We have to get to Science. See you, Y/N."

"Bye, guys. See you at lunch." You saw Kanjiro nod at you before he walked away with Harumi. You sighed once more, and made your way to Math.
