.::Of Changes and Renewals {Light}::.



When Light lost his memories everything seemed to get better for his girlfriend and, unknowingly, himself.

She lay now, curling into Light’s side and she took in his once-more-gentle scent. They were still in the headquarters, in Light’s room. He was asleep but she wasn’t. She watched him in his sleep and giggled with the way his mouth hung open gently. That’s how he always slept before he went Kira-crazed… But after he got the Death Note he slept lightly and kept a pen on the night stand at all times. Every change in position she made when she slept over made him flinch.

Now, she had him completely relaxed and at peace. She couldn’t remember the last time she got to just lay and watch him sleep and she didn’t know when she’d be able to do it again. That’s why she relished in the moment. Because she didn’t know how long it’d be before Light was writing names down in his “little black book” or when he’d make her fall asleep before he did, or when she’d get to cuddle into him again like they had no other care in the world. She didn’t know when she’d hear his stern voice barking out her name, rather than the honey-sweet voice laced with innocence again.

“________…are you alright?” he asked, suddenly waking up.

“Yeah, Light, I’m just worried about Kira is all.”

“Don’t worry, ________, I’m here to protect you. Right?”

“Right.” and they fell asleep together, but she didn’t want to wake up just incase it was all a dream.
