Questioning

"Let us begin." He said coldly. I shrugged and rolled my eyes at his childish attitude.

"Name?"
"(Y/n) (last name)."
He sighed.
"Any living relatives?"
His questions bugged me but I still answered.
"No." I said coldly. The questions lasted for what felt like hours. He set down his laptop and looked me into the eyes and drew closer.

"Your eyes..." He started.
I gave him my best confused face.

"What?"

"They're red." I couldn't say anything.
"Explain to me." He said. It wasn't even a question, but I still answered.
"I don't know." I mumbled as my eyes averted his.
I saw a broad smile escaped from his lips and his eyes widened.

"This is finally getting interesting."

"..." He bit his thumb and drew closer.
"Miss (last name) in the name of myself I demand you to tell me why your eyes are red or be ready to face punishment."

He was enjoying my reaction.
"I can't tell you." I said quietly.
"Why not?" He asked while smirking.
"It's a secret." I said embarrassed.
His eyes drew closer to my neck.
"What's this?" He asked as he snatched my necklace from my neck.

Snap!

The chain had broke along with my sanity.

I flung on top of him trying to take it back.
"Give that back!" I yelled.
He quickly jumped up and I tackled him to the ground.

I yanked it from him, stood up and backed up. He stood up hunched over and walked over to me.

"(Y/n), I demand to see what that is."
He said in a bit of a more serious tone.
"No." I said coldly. He grabbed my arm and I tried to pull back and he fell on top of me.
"Get off!" I yelled as I desperately tried to get him off.
"Give me the necklace." He said coldly.

I punched his jaw and he immediately let his grip loosen. I jumped up and backed away slowly.

"No." I said again. He stared at me in shock as his playful essence drained from his face.
"You hurt me (Y/n)." He said. I could see blood on his face.
I had nothing to say.

"I...I..."

He stood up and slowly crept closer to me. I stayed there once again rooted to the spot. He was now in front of me.
I backed up but hit the wall. He pushed me into the corner.
"(Y/n) I'm not playing anymore. You must give it to me or else."
"Or else what?" I said.
"I will convict you of being Kira."
I sighed. "You don't have enough evi-"
He cut me off.

"Nobody cares what a commoner says. I'm L. I have power against you."
He opened his fist and I slowly opened mine. He took the half heart.

"Thank you for cooperating."

And he turned around. He walked to a drawer and pulled out a small box. I ran over to him as my hands trembled.

"What are you doing?" I questioned.
He said nothing. He opened the box.

It was the other piece.

He put the two magnets together and they formed a heart.
"Where did you get that!?" I yelled.

"Someone gave it to me.."

He said quietly.
He stared at me. "Do I know you?"
I shook my head. "I don't... I thought I did..."
L reached for his phone and called someone. A few minutes later a man had walked in. Watari. He merely smiled and stared.

"It's good to see that you've connected again...my, this is a rather awkward situation, isn't it?."

"Please refresh our memory." L said as he glanced at me.
Watari told us the story and then everything came back to me. Watari excused himself and left.

I don't need you...that's what he told me. Why is he here now? He hates me!
This is just a sick prank, isn't it?

I ran over to the door with tears in my eyes. L ran over to me and grabbed my arm. "(Y/n) I have to expla-" I cut him off and yanked my arm away.
"Don't touch me! I already know who you are!" I tried to open the door but L pulled me into a hug.

"I don't want to lose you again. Please... Let me explain."
I sighed and looked at my watch.
7:45pm.
I sighed. "Ok."
He pulled me over to the couch and we both sat down.
"What is there to say!?" I blurted out.
I thought I saw tears in his eyes.

"People were going to use you to get to me. I didn't know how to keep you safe. I had to protect you. The moment I shoved you away I couldn't take it and it destroyed who I once was. I miss you (Y/n). I don't want to lose you again."

He hugged me tight and I sat there in his arms.
"And now Kira will hurt you."
He said quietly.

"No he won't." I said. I couldn't think of anything comforting to say.
It was silent.

"(Y/n)...live with me!" He blurted out.
I jerked my head. "W-what?!"
"This way I can protect you...I'm sorry it wasn't a good idea..." He mumbled.

"No it's not a bad idea." I said.
"Does that mean you will?"
He asked quietly.
I thought about it.
"I'll stay with you."
I said as he hugged me tighter.
"Thank you!" He whispered into my ear.
I stroked his hair and looked out the window.
Kira will hurt me? Impossible...
