Venice/How To Save A Life (Death Note Fanfiction)

Chapter 6 L

The front door slammed.

"Siena, I'm home!!" I heard in the hallway. The sudden noise woke me up but my eyes were still closed. I pretended to stay asleep.

"Now now. You won't feel a thing." A raspy voice said coming from the tv. The door opened, Lucille gasped.

"Eh... Hello..." Mom said doubtfully.

"Shh, she's still asleep." Light whispered.

"Who are you, if I may?" Light chuckled.

"Ow, my apologies. My name is Light Yagami. You are Siena's mother? Nice to meet you.." Light told her politely. I could tell from his voice he was tired.

"You are Light?" Lucille's voice sounded stern. Obviosly she was angry with Light. I told her I didn't want him followed. Like every other mother she took it the wrong way.

"Well, yes." He said hestitately. Mom paused, clearing her throat.

"Well, I can see you two made up."

"Yeah, Siena insisted to watch a movie together. I couldn't turn down the offer." My mom hummed suspiciously.

"What are you watching? She sat down on the edge of the cough. Light thought.

"The texas chainsaw massacre." My mom gasped.

"Ow dear. That was the first movie Siena's father and I watched together." she held her hand to her heart. Light chuckled.

"I see. I'm sorry for your loss." Lucille sighed.

"Well.. it's time to wake her up, don't you think?" She said enthousiasticly. Light nodded.

"Siena? Siena..... Sieeenaaaaaaaaaaa..." The truth is I was so relaxed I couldn't move. I was basicly glued to my seat. My seat? Come to think of it.. It doesn't feel like my couch.

"I bought cookies and Nutella." I sat up with a jerk.

"Wha- ooh!" I banged my forehead to my moms nose.

"Oh! Siena!" Light couldn't hold his laugh. When I recovered from the shock I noticed Light's arms wrapped around my waist. I looked up and he let me go.

"Cookies?" I asked. Light gave me a strange look he was confused I only cared about cookies after waking up in his arms.

"Don't eat too much! We are eating pizza!" My face was stuffed with cookies.

"Let me live my life!" I whined. Mom turned to Light.

"I don't know how she does it. One moment she's anorexic the other a food addict."

"Mom!" Mom chuckled eventhough I really couldn't laugh with her comment.

"Anyway.. Would you like to join us, Light?" I frose. Mom picked her phone. Light closed his eyes and smiled.

"Sure. If that's okay with my mother ofcourse." My mom paused.

"How old are you, Light?"

"Seventeen." My mom smiled sarcasticly.

"MOM! Be nice to Light."

"I am! Did I say something that offended you, daughter of mine?" Light enjoyed the stupid cat fight between me and my mom.

"Not me this time, mother sweet. Ow, come to think of it. Have you bought the litterbox for Toulouse? I would rather not make my bedroom smell like a pussy's bathroom if I have more men come to visit me." I played. Light raised his brow.

"Yes I have, daughter."

"Good. If you don't mind. I'll be in my bedroom changing my sheets. What a woman should be doing with her life." Mom gasped but then laughed understanding I wasn't serious. I stood up but Light  kept on watching the end of the movie. About an halve an hour later the pizza guy arrived. Light and I watched the end of the movie and talked about it afterwards. I saw he was interested in the gore and story behind it. It was a murdercase nevertheless. We ate the pizza while watching a few episodes of Little Britains. Light enjoyed my company, or so I hoped. After all I still knew his enthousiasm could have been an act but I tried to forget that. He looked tired and stressed out when I met him. During my compainy that slowly changed. I noticed he was slowly becoming friends with Toulouse. She clawled upon his lap or rubbed her head against his leg when she had the chance to. Mom told Light he could call her Lucy. That was her alias from that point on. I was surprised because dad called mom Lucy. Even when my dad and she had a fight he still called her Lucy. Mom complained about that sometimes. She told us hername was Lucille and didn't want us to call her Lucy. But my dad knew that she didn't mean it. Her name was given by her parents and our family knew very well her family was the past. It hurted her whenever she told us to call her Lucille but she kept on doing it so she reminded herself where she came from. So she could give herself a break from her current self. Slowly mom allowed herself to trust Light. When Light left mom offered to bring him home. He gave a look which I think he wanted me to bring him home and then turned down the offer.
