The next morning~

Your P.O.V.

I stretched, my body aching from last night. My hair a mess, I made my way to the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee.
I put the needed ingredients in the pot and let it brew, while I recalled the fun I had last night.

-flashback-

L and I had been working for hours after the task force went to sleep, talking about KIRA and the tapes, but after a while, L decided that we should take a break and have some fun.

"Beep!" My coffee was ready. I poured it into a cup, added lots of creamer and sugar, and started up another cup for the now asleep insomniac.

I stared at him longingly and he stuck his finger in and out licking it off his fingers. He seemed satisfied but I wanted more. Though I knew I shouldn't I pouted.

"L~," I cooed,"I want more."
"But mrs. (Y/n) I'm done."
"What?! We just bought that package of Nutella yesterday!" I pouted.
"Do you not recall? You finished yours too, and that's why you wanted some of mine." He gathered the remaining Nutella of the rim of the jar and put it on the tip of my nose. "You have something on your face."
I huffed,"Thank you captain obvious."
"Oh don't be like that. Here I'll get it." L leaned in and kissed the tip of my nose removing all the Nutella. "So sweet~."
-End of flashback-
As I poured the sugar and cream, I looked at the detective. Unlike me, he fell asleep in his office chair, while I had taken refuge in the couch. Big mistake.
I placed the hot liquid in front of him and played with his soft black hair.
"What do you find so interesting with my hair, Mrs. Nakanishi." L spoke, causing me to jump 20 feet in the air.
"L, please, call me (y/n) when we're alone." I said, returning to his hair. It was too fluffy to resist!
"You still haven't answered my question" L whined, sipping his coffee.
"Fine. It's because it's so fluffy and soft!" I exclaimed, now braiding it.
L hummed, "I have seen coupes interacting in this manner. By doing this, are you suggesting that we become a couple?"
"No, I think best friends is fine for now." I squeeked, sitting down immediately, no longer playing with his hair.
"This coffee is very good."
"Thanks, oh wait! I need to fix my hair! Please excuse me." I got up and ran to the elavator, going to the basement.
I reached my room and pulled out a pair of blue jean short shorts and a white, loose long sleeved shirt. I removed my jewelry and hopped into the shower. I stepped onto the cold tile and wrapped my towel around me. I put on my undergarments, clothes, and jewelry. I quickly did a side braid with my wet (h/c) hair and admired my self in the mirror.
God, I look like L!
I had formed large eye bags, and I was not wearing any socks. Not to mention the fact that I had developed a slight slouch.
I shock off the fact, stood up straighter, and made my way back to L.
I sat down next to him and we continued to talk about second KIRA, when Matsuda burst into the room.
"Guys!" Matsuda screamed," Something came in for Sakura T.V. today!"
L and I both spun around in our seats, facing Matsuda as I beckoned for him to continue.

But he didn't. Matsuda just stood there and gestured to us." I didn't know you two were a couple!"
"WHHHAAAAAT?!" I screamed.
"Yes, I agree with Ukine, what?" L cocked his head to the side.
"Aww... so cute." I whispered, looking at L,"Ahem, I mean, Matsuda, we are not a couple."
"Really? Then why are you wearing one of his shirts, Ukine?" Matsuda pressed and wiggled his eyebrows.
"Matsuda! These are my clothes!" I blushed.
"Y-yeah, I haven't lent Ukine any of my clothing." L stuttered a light pink gracing his pale cheeks.
"Okay~ whatever you say~" he teased,"now to make a ship name! Ryukine? Ukizaki? Yeah, that's it! Ukizaki! Aww you two are so cute together!"
L and I just rolled our eyes at Matsuda and his craziness.
"See you two just rolled your eyes in unison!!!! I ship you two so hard! Ukizaki! Ukizaki!" He chanted.
L cleared his troat." Matsuda, what did you have to tell us?"
"Huh? Oh right! We picked up some sort of diary from the second KIRA!" He exclaimed, holding out a package.
L shooed him away telling him to run it down at the lab,"Oh yeah, I should let the couple have their private time. To be honest, I'm jealous of you Ryuzaki."Matsuda blurted out and left with the package.
"So..." L said after some time.
"Yeah?"
"We have free time, if you want to record a song." L suggested.
"Okay." I got up, but L had other plans. He pulled on my sleeve, making me fall in his lap.
"(Y/n)~" L purred. "Can I come with you?" He placed his chin on my shoulder and his arms around my waist.
"S-sure," I stuttered, my face tomato red. "If you let go."
Now it was L's turn to blush as he detached himself from me.
We went to my studio as I set it up. This time, the song would be edited after the singing, so no synthetic voices were required. The only problem was that it was in English.
"Ryu, this song's in English, are you okay with that?" I asked.
"Yes I can speak English fluently, and why the sudden change with calling me 'Ryu'?" L asked interested.
"Uh, 'Ryuzaki' is a pretty long alias so I thought I could shorten it. That's fine right?"
L just hummed.
I started the background music
~ start the video now!~

She gave it her best
She tried to fit in
She tried to be cool
But she never could win
Her mom says she's great
The kids think she's weird
Honestly she wish she could disappear

Why you try, try to be like the rest of them
When you know there's so much more within
There's only one you
Here's what ya' gotta do

Whoa, whoa...
Anytime you feel alone, put on your headphones
Love, love's coming through your headphones
Anytime you feel alone, put on your headphones
Love, love's coming through your headphones
L-o-o-ove is coming through your headphones
L-o-o-ove is coming through your headphones

He gets in his car
He falls apart
It came to an end
And now it's breaking his heart
He wants to give up
Wants to try again
Honestly he doesn't know what he's feeling

Hey, you might not see it with your eyes
But keep your head up to the sky
The sun is coming through
Here's what you gotta do

Whoa, whoa...
Anytime you feel alone, put on your headphones
Love, love's coming through your headphones
Anytime you feel alone, put on your headphones
Love, love's coming through your headphones
L-o-o-ove is coming through your headphones
L-o-o-ove is coming through your headphones

So keep your head up high and dust off your shoulders
It's alright, no, it's not over
Love is here, it came to dry up all your tears
Oh, can you feel it
Gotta believe it, gotta see it
By your side in the middle of the night
So keep your head up high and the dust off your shoulders
It's alright, no it's not over

Anytime you feel alone, put on your headphones
Love, love's coming through your headphones
Anytime you feel alone, put on your headphones
Love, love's coming through your headphones
L-o-o-ove is coming through your headphones
L-o-o-ove is coming through your headphones

So keep your head up high and dust off your shoulders
Coming through your headphones
So keep your head up high and dust off your shoulders
Coming through your headphones

Twinkle, twinkle in your eye
Listen to this lullaby
The sun is shining in the sky
I see love it's in your eyes

This ain't the first time you felt like this
This ain't the first time, this ain't the first time
This ain't the last time you'll feel like this
But it'll be fine
If you can just, smile

L's P.O.V.

Her angelic voice filled the room, matching perfectly with the song. Her singing was so good, it even made me sway to the beat. But at the same time, it was depressing, as if she lived through the feeling. Then it hit me.
The reason her songs are so popular and filled with emotion, is because she has lived through it. Her songs are based off of her life! That explains why she was crying that one time!..I want to hug her so bad. I want to let her know I'm here for her, that I understand.... but I dont. I don't and I never will. Not until she tells me.
I must have been deep in thought because Mrs. (Y/n) had pinched me, causing me to yelp. "That was unnecessary." I stated.
"I know, but it was fun~" she teased. God I want to kiss her soft lips. No, L, she said we are best friends, that's enough.
She opened her computer, attached the new song and the one she recorded two days (if you forgot, check chapter 8) and sent it to her manager.
She got an immediate reply saying how they will be released first thing tomorrow.
(Y/n) beamed and shut her computer. Without thinking, I turned head to face me, and her smiled faded. Her eyes drifted to my lips and back to my eyes. She shook her head and muttered something under her breath.
"I get it now." I blurted out.
"What?" Her beautiful face looked at me again. "What do you understand? Is it something about the case?"
"No, it's about you." I pulled her into a passionate hug, or so I thought. She felt dead, lifeless. Her arms remained by her side and her voice barely a whisper,"Thanks for trying, but I'm afraid you don't."
She pushed me away. This wasn't (y/n). (Y/n) would never do that. I remember when I first met her, when she hugged me in the café. She hugged a complete stranger with more emotion than what happened just now. Now she seemed broken, like an angel who lost her wings. I couldn't stand it. I grabbed her hand, turned her around and pressed my lips against her soft ones. Her gorgeous (e/c) eyes opened wide, but soon closed melting into the kiss. It felt so good, being able to have her to myself, but due to something called breathing, we had to pull apart.
"Let me have the honors of trying to understand your life." I said, holding both of her hands.
"Sure, Ryu." And this time she hugged me.

But little did we know, a very angry mass murderer was watching everything.
