Chapter 18 | first gig
You were flopped across L as he typed away at his computer, you were reading a book and everything was quiet until you heard the tune of your ringtone go off. Groaning in annoyance, you rolled off L and picked up your phone.
"Hello?"
"AYANO YOU'LL NEVER BELIVE IT!"
It was Misa again.
"What?"
"My modelling company is having a 10 year anniversary and they want you to sing at it!" She squealed into the phone.
"WHAT? REALLY?!" You yelled back, making L jump and look at you.
"REALLY! PLEASE DO IT! YOU'LL GET A HUGE OPPORTUNITY IF YOU DO!"
"WHEN?!"
"Tonight..."
You paused to think for a moment, you had songs to sing and a guitar to use... and you could use the extra publicity...
"I'll do it!" You said.
"YAY! Wear something fancy or they won't let you in, I'll see you tonight I'll message you the address" Misa said.
"Ok! Bye!"
"Bye!"
You hung up and jumped to your feet, staring to bounce around and squeal. You jumped into the sofa and smashed your face into a pillow as you screamed.
"Woah, (y/n) what happened?" L laughed as you screamed.
"I got a gig! Misa's modelling company wants to to play for them tonight!" You exclaimed.
"What? Seriously?!"
"Yeah! Seriously!"
"(Y/n)! That's great I'm so proud of you!" L said as he pulled you into a tight hug.
You smiled uncontrollably as you hugged him back, squeezing him half to death.
"Please come and watch me perform!" You said.
"Sweetheart I wouldn't miss it for the world"
"There's a catch though"
"What?"
"Well... you have to dress fancy or they won't let you in..." you said, knowing full well L doesn't like formal clothes.
"Hmm... I guess I'll have to pull out my old suit..."
Your face lit up, despite L absolutely hating anything but his normal clothes he's still willing to suffer for you.
"THANK YOU!"
You threw you arms around him again and gave him a kiss on the cheek before jumping up and running down the hall.
"I need to find a dress!"
You heard L laugh at your exited state as you closed you door, you pulled out your many suitcases and started to pull things out, throwing them all over the floor. You only had about three dresses but you had to make a mess because they were all at the bottom of your bags.
You had a short black one, a long blue one and a knee length dark blue one. You held them all up to yourself, trying to pick. You then suddenly had an idea.
You got out a piece of paper and wrote down your set list.
1. Angels
2. Can't help falling in love
3. Cosmic love
4. Blue jeans
5. Talk me down
6. Dreaming alone
Six songs seemed to be enough for the time being, you went through your bag again and couldn't find what you wanted. You grabbed your wallet and phone and headed out the door, leaving L with a kiss on the forehead.
You walked down the street and into the closest dress shop, you looked around for what you needed. A white dress. You grabbed three and tried them on, you ended up liking the knee length one the best so you bought it. Next you went into a costume shop and bought some angel wings and white stockings. You checked the time and saw it was 4:00, with only an hour until you have to leave you ran home and burst through the door.
"Start getting ready!" You said pulling L down the hall and into his room.
You walked into your room and pulled on the dress, you pulled on the stockings and shoes and put on a small amount of makeup so you looked like you sparkled. You put the instrumental versions of your songs on a USB and shoved it in your bag.
You knocked on L's door and he answered it with his tie over his shoulder and a half buttoned up shirt.
"Can you do up my zip I can't reach it" you said.
L turned you around and zipped you up before going back to his outfit. You sat on his bed and watched as he buttoned up his shirt and pulled on his jacket. You had never seen L in a suit before, let alone other clothes, you just had to stare. As he tried to do up his tie you laughed and walked over to him.
You pulled his ands away and did up his tie for him. He looked up at you and smiled.
"You look amazing..." he said.
"I'm not done yet" you smirked.
You pulled him out of his room and into yours where you pulled on the angel wings.
"I always knew you must have been an angel" he said.
You smiled and gave him a hug.
"You look absolutely wonderful you know" you said.
He smiled and hugged you back.
"We should get a picture"
You nodded and pulled him out to the main room where you saw Watari enter the hotel room.
"Watari! Perfect timing! Can you take our picture?" You said.
"What caused the formal clothing?" He asked, grabbing a camera.
"(Y/n) got a gig, but the company won't let us in unless we dress formal" L said.
"Ah, congratulations (y/n)" Watari said.
"Thanks"
You stood next to L in front of the camera as Watari snapped a picture.
"I'll print this as soon as possible" he said.
"Thanks" you replied.
You grabbed your bag and guitar and L's hand.
"Ready to go?" You said.
"Yeah, let's get going" he replied.
"I'll drive you" Watari said.
You all piled into L's extremely fancy car and drove down to the address Misa sent you.
As you approached the building you saw fancy lights, signs and a... red carpet?
You quickly dialled Misa, she picked up instantly.
"Um, is it the place with the red carpet?" You asked.
"Yeah, I just found out that we're having some extremely famous models so there's a red carpet. They want you to walk down it for the company photographers" Misa said.
"Oh... ok?"
"I'm waiting by the door I'll see you soon"
And with that she hung up.
"They want me to walk down the red carpet, but I'm worried about L..." you said.
"That could be problem. These photos would have to be burned..." L said.
"You can get out around the back"
"But I want to be here for you..."
There was a moment of silence as you both thought.
"I know, go around the back and wait for me by the door next to Misa" you said.
"Good idea"
You took a different turn so L could get out and go around through the back, you drove around the front and watched out the window as the car pulled up by the carpet.
You took a breath and grabbed your guitar. You opened the door and stepped out only to be blinded with flashes.
"Angel! What do you have to say about your overnight popularity?"
"Where are you from?"
"Angel do you work here?"
Misa never said there'd be reporters... maybe they only just heard you'd be there and crashed the place. It was all a bit overwhelming but you saw L standing by the door along with Misa and... someone else?
You just smiled and waved to the cameras as you walked down the carpet toward Misa and L.
When you reached them you saw the buildings security try to control the crowd.
"Angel you look amazing!" Misa said.
"Thanks"
"I'm sorry about the reporters they came out of no where, they must have heard about you coming and wanted to get here"
"It's fine, it couldn't be helped" you said.
Misa had a short black dress on and high heels with heavy make up and the guy beside her had a suit and brown hair, you felt L's arm around your waist, you looked at him. He seemed to be glaring and the brown haired boy.
"Oh! Angel, Ryuga, this is Light, my boyfriend" Misa said.
"Nice to meet you" he said.
"You too"
"I'm not going to lie I'm actually a pretty big fan" Light said awkwardly.
"Oh, thanks?" You replied, not really knowing how to respond.
"Was that weird?"
"No! No! I just haven't mat a fan before" you replied awkwardly.
"Anyway let's go inside" Misa said pushing the doors open and walking along side light.
"Ayano listen" L said, using your alias.
"Hm?"
"Light, Light Yagami, son of chief Yagami, I don't want you near him... he's been a suspect for a while now, I should tell the taskforce..." L said.
"Suspect? So you think he's Kira?"
"It's highly likely... which is why I took the entrance exams a few days ago, to watch him"
"That makes sense"
"And please don't take this the wrong way, but is Misa has suddenly taken instead in light and she came out of nowhere into his life, she could be the second Kira..." L explained.
"I understand, but she seems a little... not to be mean, dimwit-ed to be the second Kira" you said.
"True, but a suspects a suspect. Listen don't think about to too much now, you have to perform soon"
"Exactly Mr. Detective, stop thinking for a while we're here to have fun" you said, wrapping an arm around him.
"Ok, ok. Just be careful of light"
"Don't worry, I will"
You followed Misa backstage where L helpled you set up the music and spotlights. About five minutes before performance, you were given a good luck kiss from L and he walked out to be part of the crowd.
So there you stood, behind the curtain, under a spotlight with a guitar in your hands. Ready to play your first ever concert.
