Insecurities

(Y/N)'s Pov

"Okay! I want to go to the next clothes store we see!"

Misa had decided that the taskforce needed a break from working constantly. So she took us all out shopping. I wasn't particularly comfortable with this, but I didn't complain. I was getting time of work for the first time in forever!

We approached another clothes store and Misa rushed inside. Everyone followed her, but I stayed outside the store. I was looking at the clothes in the window.

I then spotted a beautiful sleeveless top on one of the mannequins. It was a nice light grey colour. It looked really pretty. I wanted it!

I then stopped and looked at the ground.

No...I can't buy that...
Sure, it looks cute...But something like that has to be worn by the right person...

I will NOT look pretty in that...
I'd just look gross...like always...

I look up to see L come out the store.

"You weren't wrong (Y/N). Shopping with Misa is actually harder than some of the cases I've tackled before", he sighed.

I giggle lightly as I look back to the mannequin.

"Are you alright (Y/N)?" L asked.

He then spotted the sleeveless top in the window.

"Is this what you're looking at? Looks nice", he said, putting a finger to his lip.

"Yeah. I'm just having a look", I say.

"Are you going to buy it?"

I shook my head.

"No"

"Why not?"

"It's not really my style", I mutter.

"You think so? I've seen you wear something like this before", L said.

"Yeah, but..."

"But...? Is something bothering you (Y/N)?"

"Nevermind. We should go and check on Misa and the others", I say, heading into the store, only to be stopped by L grabbing a hold of my arm.

"I asked you a question (Y/N). Please don't ignore me. What's wrong?" L said. "If you don't have enough money to buy that top, I could buy it for you".

"It's not that..."

"Then what is it?"

"It's just...I could never wear something like that..." I look down to the ground again.

"What? Why not?!" I could tell L was surprised.

"I'm not...pretty enough...I don't have the perfect body...the right hair...beautiful skin...I just look like a-"

L cut me off by wrapping his arms around me and smashing his lips against mine, shocking me for a second.

L then pulled away and cupped my cheek.

"Don't even try to finish that sentence!" He said.

I sigh.

"Why on earth would you think that?!" L asked.

"I don't think it, I know it!"

L put his finger to my lips.

"You shouldn't say such negative things about yourself", he said, then pulling me closer.

"B-But-"

"(Y/N), maybe you don't know it, but you are absolutely incredible! You have a beautiful smile, a perfect body, everything a man could want. You are perfect (Y/N)!" L said, his cheeks going a very light shade of pink.

"Y-You think so? Well...I-"

"I'm going to buy you that top!" L didn't even let me finish my sentence before he grabbed my arm and led me into the store.

"Wait! L!" I call.

"What? You want it, I'm buying it. I'm sure someone as smart as you are has picked up on the fact that I like to spoil you (Y/N)", L said.

He found the sleeveless tops stacked on a shelf and picked one up. He then held it to me and inspected it for a few seconds.

"Perfect", he said. "Now go and try it on, so we know which size to get you".

L started waving the top in my face, demanding me to put it on.

I sigh with a smile and shake my head, taking it from him and going to the changing rooms to change.

-Soon-

I come out of the changing room wearing the sleeveless top. I look over at L, my face went bright red. I was slightly uncomfortable.

I notice L's eyes widen as he looked me up and down. His cheeks turned slightly pink but it was hard to tell.

"You look...amazing!" He said, a big smile on his face.
He sounded truthful too.

"Y-You think so...?" I say.

"I know so! We're definitely buying this! Quickly, get changed back so I can buy it for you!" I had never seen L so happy. Was he serious? Did I really look that pretty?

I went back and changed into my regular top. I gave the top to L and he immediately went to the counter to buy it.

"Why are you buying a women's shirt L?" Misa approached him.

"It's for (Y/N)", he said, matter of factly.

"Really?! Wow! You've got good taste for (Y/N)! I bet she'll look beautiful in that shirt!"

"She already tried it on, and she looks stunning".

I kept listening to the conversation as I blush.

"You didn't even tell me?! I would have loved to see (Y/N) in that top!" Misa said.

"Oh, you can still see her wearing that top one day", L says as he finished paying for the top.

He walked over to me and handed me the sleeveless top. As all of us left the store, I grabbed L's sleeve.

"Th-Thanks", I say.

L just smiled at me as he patted my head.

"Did you really mean what you said there to Misa?" I ask.

"Of course. Why would I lie about you? That's low, even for me", he replied.

I giggled.

"Well, thanks again for making me feel a little more comfortable".

"I'm glad I was able to help you out", he replies.

'I'm so lucky to have L'
