Case: Unsolved Past (Death Note Fanfic)

Chapter VIII

My eyes widen from the sudden affection. I soon relaxed from the comfort.

!!!

"You looked like you needed a hug", he said , looking down at me when he pulled back, "but there are other ways I can make you feel really good", he smiled slyly.

Blushing furiously I smacked him lightly on his arm but gave him a tight hug in return.

Thank you, Soryu.

"So you said you came here to drop something?", I asked him as we collected ourselves.

"Yes, " he said making his way to the couch were lay a large flat box. "And again you can can not open till...well tomorrow. "

"Sigh...I'm kinda afraid to know what's inside the boxes you've given me", I said when I took the box and placed it inside my room, returning back to the living.

"Well good. Cause I honestly can't wait" he said humorously but then grew serious, "it's finally going happen."

I nodded. The biggest drug cartel, finally catching the source of 'Mistress Blanc' an opium drug, will finally be resolved.

I also noticed how he kept it with just that. But when I got a look at his eyes....he knows there's cameras.

"I know " I said, meaning both which he understood. There was slight twitch in his eyes that does unnoticed from outsider, or this case a watcher, he nodded slightly.

"Let's just hope things will go smoothly. I don't want any unnecessary conflict especially with that man! It be good he was out of the picture."

"Yeah, I'm just glad you would do this for me, Soryu."

"Anything for you, Ayame. Plus we made a deal, I would help you any way I can and you would do the same for me."

"That's right ", giving a grateful smile.

A comrade is a comrade, as long as their trust.

"Well I should be going, I am to meet some clients at the club", Soryu stood up and made his way to my front door, I followed behind him. As he stood the entrance he turned back and faced me.

"Look, Ayame don't let what that guy said get to you. I'm pretty sure your just stress and the case that your dealing with me and the one of Kira. Just try to get some rest you need it I don't want you collapsing on me now."

I nodded and watched him leave.

....

...I'm alone...well sorta.

Mugen where'd you go?

"Hmm I wonder if I should skip work tomorrow...or just show up...maybe something new will come up."

Most likely L caught the hidden message from those note left by Kira.

Kira....

What are you going to reveal this time.
You don't know there is someone in the task force that knows about the Death Note...

But...

It's useless it all depends how much I will reveal without being question or accused as Kira.
...something is telling its not the right time to reveal it just yet.
....

I sighed.

"This sucks."

My shoulders slumped.

I feel so useless.

Mugen, come home.

The next day
