L Lawliet & Angel (Death Note Love Story)

Chapter 4: "Childhood Friend's"

I open my eyes staring up at a dark ceiling, lying on a white couch I sit up shading my eyes from the glow of a wall filled with computer monitors. A man sat in a chair with black hair, a white shirt, and baggy blue jeans. I start to cry “Lawliet?” I gasp. He doesn’t turn around. But, keeps typing away on a computer. I stand up crossing my arms over my chest; I look out a window seeing the rain pitter pat.

“if you don’t turn around I’m going outside”

Silence

“I’m not kidding!” I start slowly walking to the elevator “I will, just watch me” i hit the button

“you kept it” I turn around to find Lawliet sitting in his chair facing me looking blankly at my teddy bear holding it up in the air with two fingers “its pretty old now”

“It was the last thing I had of you” I say shyly. He looks into my eyes hopping off his chair walking up to me, our faces only inches apart.

“How can something so small be so loved?” he smiles a little.

“because even though he’s small he’s been there for me, no matter what; during the good and bad times in life. I love him”

He looks down at the ground, back hunched like it’s always been. His face filled with sadness. “but it’s just a stuffed bear, nothing special about it.”

I put my hands on his shoulder’s “listen, no matter what anyone says I will never believe that he isn’t special, or important. That ‘bear’ means the world to me”

I hug him close “you and Watari are all I have, if I lose you… I lose my world”

“Emily was right” he blankly says backing away sitting back in his chair with his legs close to his chest grabbing a piece of strawberry cake taking small bites. “I do love you” I gasp following 3 other gasp. 3 men stand in front of the elevator. Watari, a young man, and a middle aged man. My face turns bright red, trying to hide my face with my hands.

“You must be miss, Angel” the middle aged man says. I bow

“It’s a pleasure to meet you Chief Yagami”

He chuckles “please just call me chief”

I try to smile as my skin starts to slowly cool down. “And you must be Masuda” I say to the younger man “it’s a pleasure to meet you as well”

“wow how does she know our name’s?” he asked Chief

“she’s done her homework” Lawliet says taking another bite of his cake

“Ever since she was brought to Wammy’s she followed in secret of every investigation that L has done since he has resigned from Wammy’s” Watari says smiling at me. I start to daydream as always while Watari explains in more detail about how he found me, the car wreck, my parents dying on impact, my two year coma, Lawliet and I becoming friends, him stopping a boy from hurting me, the carnival trip the day before L left. Everything. It takes a few hours as Watari now sit on the couches, Watari sits with me while Masuda & Chief sit across listening and asking questions every once and awhile. I have my headphones on with “a thousand years” turned up full blast not caring if Lawliet hears it because I never told him that the song was about him and me. I’m sure he isn’t paying attention, I can hear the fading sound of him typing away, probably still busy with the Kira case. I remember when we were in school I would watch him play tennis, I wasn’t very good but Lawliet determined to teach me. So, when it was a sunny day he and I would spend hours outside on the tennis court. One day as we were playing it suddenly started to pour down rain; Lawliet grabbed me, pulling me tours the house. I stopped him.
