(A/N): I did NOT write this in hopes to offend people who are deaf or have problems hearing! People who are like that are just as awesome and special as everyone else! We should all be treated equally! But if you are offended by this oneshot, I do apologise. I never intended for it to be offensive. I just want to get a message across!

(Y/N)'s Pov

"You shouldn't be working on this Kira case!"

"How do you expect us to work with you if you can't even communicate with us?!"

"We're getting no where here! And it's all because of you!"

'What are they saying? I can tell they're angry, but...'

"You even made Ryuzaki quit! He hasn't been in the taskforce building for weeks! It's all your fault!"

I didn't know what they were saying.

I reach for the notebook on the desk and write something in it.
I hold my notebook to everyone.

Could you write that down for me please? I'm not quite sure what you're saying.

"Whatever! I've had enough of this! I can't stand you anymore (Y/N)!"

Misa, the blonde girl I worked with, stomped upstairs.

I wrote something in my notebook again.

Did I upset Misa?

Light, the brunette boy, stormed over to me. He snatched my notebook out of my hand and started ripping the pages out of it.

"You've upset everyone! Kira should kill you!"

I didn't pick up on his words, but I could tell he was angry with me. I probably have upset Misa.

I could feel tears coming to my eyes...

"Stop staring at me!"

Light pushed me, causing me to fall back onto the floor. He then left and headed upstairs too.

"You're such a crybaby!"

Aizawa, an older detective, stormed upstairs too. I was all alone.

Why does everyone get mad around me? Have I done something wrong? Is it because I can't hear?

I gathered all the torn pages from my notebook and hold them tightly to my chest, sobbing loudly.

I soon spot the entrance to the taskforce open. My eyes were drawn to a familiar figure walking in...

'Is that L?'

"(Y/N)?" L rushed over to me and knelt down beside me.

I wiped my eyes, but I still continued to sob.

L's eyes were drawn to my torn up notebook, then back to me.

L took my notebook from me, then brought me into a warm hug, causing me to gasp in shock.

Once L had broke had broke the hug, he started moving his hands and fingers around.

He was communicating...through sign language...

How did L know sign language?

I looked closely at what L was trying to tell me through his sign language.

'What's...wrong? What...has...happened?'

I look up at L who had a concerned look on his face.

I used sign language to communicate back to L.

'I...think...I...have...done...bad...things...and...people...hate...me...for...it'.

L communicated back.

'You...haven't done...anything...bad...What...makes...you...think...that?' was what he was trying to tell me.

I feel the tears come back to me.

'Everyone...is...bullying...me...' I sign back.

I notice L's face go from concerned to angry.

'Why...are they...doing...that?!' He signed back.

I just shrugged.

L put his hands on my shoulders and looked me in the eyes. He then stood up and stormed upstairs.

Soon, Light, Misa and Aizawa were coming back downstairs. They looked very disappointed. L was behind them, still very mad. He must have said something to them.

"How could you all be so cruel?" L said. He also signed so I was able to understand what was going on.
"You can't respect someone because they're different from you? They have some kind of problem and that's what makes it okay for you to bully them? No! It doesn't work like that! I can't accept those who bully other people! Learn some manners and stop being so disgusting!"

L really said that?! He did sign that so...

I never thought L was that kind of person...

"I'm sorry..."

The words came out of Misa's mouth. L kept using sign language so I knew what everyone was saying.

"It's just quite hard to work with (Y/N)!"

"So what? Learn to deal with it".

"I don't know any sign language, so it's hard to communicate with (Y/N) too".

This time, Light was speaking.

"You could have written in her notebook!"

This went on for some time. I could tell L was obviously very annoyed with everyone and wanted to help me. I'm grateful. He's the only one who excepts me.

"We really are sorry", the three of them said.

"Now, get back to work", L stated. "I don't want to hear or see you bullying (Y/N) ever again!"

Everyone quickly got back to work.

L turned back to me and gave me a small smile.

He knelt back down beside me and put a hand on my cheek.

'How...did...you...know...how...to...sign...in the...first...place?' I sign to L.

L signed back.

'I...thought...it...would...be...easier...to...communicate...through...sign...language...That's...why...I...left...for...some...time...I...tried...to...learn...as much...as I...could...'

He went out of his way to stop working on an important case, to learn sign language to help communicate with me. L really is something else.

Without really thinking, I lunge at L and kiss his cheek, making him jump and put his hand to his cheek.

'Thank you...' I sign.

'I...care...deeply...about...you...(Y/N)...' L signed back, making me blush.

'I...feel...the...same...about...you...' I sign back, giving L a big smile. 'You're...the...only...one...who...excepts...me...'

I noticed L's cheeks go slightly red as he scratched the back of his head and gave me a small smile.

'I'm sorry...I...wasn't there...to...help you...sooner...' L signed.

I shake my head.

'It's okay...' I sign.

L wrapped his arms around me and pulled me into another hug.

"I...I...wuv you..." I say quietly to L, although I was pretty sure he couldn't understand what I said.

L pulled back from the hug and looked me dead in the eyes, before signing:

'I...love you...too...(Y/N)'.

I feel tears forming in my eyes as L leans in and connects his lips with mine.

(A/N): I wasn't quite sure how to end this one, so I apologise if it's quite bad. Also, this oneshot was based around the movie A Silent Voice. It's very good and I recommend it if you haven't seen it.
Also, please do NOT bully anyone! Whether they have a disability or not, it's wrong to bully people! I hope this oneshot makes people understand that because someone may be different, they still deserve to be treated fairly, just like everyone else!
