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

Body pillow

A/n: kinda a crack?? Tbh, after literally four years of sleeping with an L pillow I've gotten so attached to it 😂 it's hard to even sleep without it now.

Your best friend is an artist, and the one you complain too. All year you'd been complaining to her that L never sleeps and not only do you worry about his health, you wanted to be able to cuddle with him. But noooooo... he just had to do work all the time. During the day he would make the effort to mooch on you but you still wished he'd come to bed with you more often. Eventually your complaining got repetitive and it gave our friend an idea.

She drew and printed you a body pillow.

A body pillow of your own boyfriend.

"What the he-"

"(Y/n), hear me out" she said.

You gave her a confused look as you held the pillow in your hands.

"This way you have something to cuddle, it has to do with Ryuzaki AND, AND. If he sees you've replaced him with a pillow of himself, maybe he'll finally get the message!"

That... was actually well thought out.

"Wow... you're right actually. Thanks! You know you didn't have to do all this for me" you laughed.

"It was too funny not to, but do you know how hard it was to figure out how to draw that mans hair?! I looked at so many reference pictures, has he even met a hairbrush?" She asked.

You laughed at her statement. She was right, L's hair was a total mess.

"He's got that hair where if you try and brush it, it goes poof, so he never does" you explained.

"Ooohhhhh that explains it"

After a few more hours of giggling, it was time for you to head back home to taskforce. You didn't want to disturb the taskforce with their Kira talk so you took the back way in and went up to your room where you lay the pillow in L's spot on the bed. You got a better look at the art now that it was actually laid out properly. Your friend had done a good job, the signature blue jeans and white shirt, the eyebags, the mess of hair, all accurately done. She's turned him into an anime pretty boy and boy did it look good. Both sides were safe for work, thank god. Who knows how L would react if it wasn't?

It was already pretty late, so you decided to take a shower and just get to bed as you'd had dinner at your friends house. Every night L does come up to say goodnight, you wish he'd stay but he'd always pull the Kira case card. Maybe this time he'd get the message...

You showered up, put on your pyjamas and slipped into bed, wrapping your arms and legs around the pillow. You wanted to stay awake to see his reaction but boy... you were just too tired. You were asleep pretty much the second your head hit the pillow.

A few hours later, L made his way upstairs to say goodnight. He opened the door to your shared floor and walked into your room, and froze in his tracks when he saw you.

He had no idea what he was looking at.

You... hugging... himself... on a pillow?

"She replaced me with a body pillow... of myself" he questioned.

He walked over to take a closer look, he recognised the art style as your friends and sighed.

"Of course... those two are always up to something..."

Now he was just wondering why. Did you ask her to make it? Was it just a joke gift? Why on earth did you need a body pillow of your own boyfriend. He just started at you sleeping while his mind tried to process everything.

Aannnddd that's when it hit him. He sighed and facepalmed himself.

"L you dumb fuck- she's been wanting to cuddle this whole time..." he sighed to himself.

He came to the conclusion you'd been complaining about it to your friend and she's given the pillow as a joke, but you could use it to send the message. And it worked, he understood now.

The next morning, you awoke to the feeling of being squished in between something. One soft thing and one thing wrapped around you. It took your mind a moment to process and wake up, but you soon realised you were in an L sandwich.

Body pillow in your arms, L his his arms around you.

Looks like he finally got the message. Your movement woke him up, and he pulled at your arms to turn you to face him.

"Good morning" you smirked.

"Good morning you traitor" he joked.

You laughed and have him a smug look.

"You finally got the message?"

"Yes, Yes... shut up. I'm sorry"

"Don't worry about it. (Friends/n) just gave it to me as a joke. I thought it would be funny, is actually really comfortable though" you giggled.

"Well, can you at least hug the real thing now? I'll actually come to bed now..." he replied, wrapping his arms around you and pulling you in, burying his face into your shirt.

"As long as you end up in bed, I'll cuddle you every night"

Of course, you kept the pillow, it often migrated from the bed to the sofa, and you kept using it to get under L's skin when he'd work late and leave you hanging. It became kind of a running joke. You'd say things like 'I'll break out the pillow' or 'I'll cheat on you with your pillow self' and he'd instantly get the message. But even then, the funniest thing that came out of that pillow was catching him passed out after long shifts... hugging himself.
