L Lawliet x reader oneshots 2 // Series 2 • DEATH NOTE [COMPLETED]

Oblivious

A/n: AHAHISJIAHDISHIS OMG I JUST GOT A BUNCH OF DMS COME THROUGH SUUPPEPRR LATE. Like from months ago??? I'm so so so so so sorry if I never wrote your request, for some reason I couldn't see it. I'll get on them ASAP. In the meantime, have some Misa-steps-in-to-make-these-losers-realise-their-love action.

Hc: you've been so hung up on trying to make L proud with your work, you failed to notice how in love he is with you. And even though she's meant to be on Lights side, Misa decides enough is enough...

You'd been working so hard over the past year, Kira was really beating everyone's asses and it was a tough case. You had always looked up to L, so you wanted to make him proud by being the best worker on the taskforce.

L, on the other hand, was finding it so hard to focus. Why? He'd fallen head over heels in love with you.

It took him a while to realise that what he was feeling was love, since he'd never really experienced it before, but when he realised, his whole world had flipped upside down. He didn't really know how to talk to you about it, so he was hoping you'd pick up on it yourself. But... it seems you weren't.

You were just too wrapped up in trying to impress him that you failed to notice you already had. Long ago.

It upset him, he just wanted to like... sit on the sofa and watch anime and laugh at stupid stuff with you. Hold hands while walking down the streets... fall asleep in your arms. That's all. But none of his affections has been picked up on by you yet.

Even if you were totally oblivious, the others weren't.

Misa found it painfully obvious L had a major crush on you and it was just soooo painful to watch you be so blind towards it.

So when L didn't come downstairs from his room this morning, she knew exactly what was wrong. The night before you'd both been on night shift together, and judging from the fact L was hiding away upstairs, his endeavours had flown over your head again. Even thought Light would tell her to not side with the enemy, she felt bad. She could tell L wasn't the best at handling emotions, he's good at keeping a straight face, but not at controlling what's inside. She wanted to help.

The taskforce were all distracted with their work, not paying attention to the cameras so they wouldn't see her trying to get into L's room. She snuck upstairs and knocked on his door.

"L? Are you ok?" She asked.

No response.

She sighed, he was so stubborn.

"I know this is about (y/n)"

It was silent again for a moment.

"Don't worry about it Misa..." he said, from behind the door.

"I am worrying about it. Remember how I said any friend of Lights is a friend of mine?"

L sighed.

"It's fine Misa..."

"It's obviously not if you of all people are hiding away in your room in sadness... I know (y/n)s totally oblivious, and you know why? Because she's so focused on trying to impress you that she hasn't realised that she already has" Misa explained.

It was silent for a moment, but the door opened. L looked tireder than usual and super stresses. And judging by the red tint in his eyes, he'd been crying too.

"Why are you trying to help me? You're meant to be against me..." L asked.

"Because... I'm just such a sucker for love. And if Kira does get to you, I at least want to see you happy with someone for once. Look, I know I'm a suspect but can be just put that aside and talk as humans for once? No suspect-detective-Kira stuff?" Misa replied.
