Ryuzaki awoke laying in his bed his arm draped over one side feeling a slight tug from the handcuffs from his right arm as Light rustled in his sleep. It was awkward for sleeping arrangements considering he never slept much and sharing a bed with someone who sleeps longer than him left him with much of his time staring into the darkness of the room listening to the sounds around him. So soft sound of Light's breathing, the sound of the air conditioning kicking on, someone getting up to go to the bathroom hearing the soft rushing sound of the toilet.

He sighed racking his brain at all the information he had be given thus far but his mind still felt clouded and he turned to his side again the chain from the cuffs pressing uncomfortably against his side. He'd never been so close to someone for so long it was making him rusty he didn't like it and wondered at just what time this seemed like a good idea. He let out another sigh resting his hands behind his head staring at a ceiling that he couldn't see.

"You can't sleep either Ryuzaki," Light's voice sounded softly in the darkness making him jump slightly.

"Nope," He murmured still feeling ill at ease and in a foul mood due to his recent miscalculation in the Kira case and now here he was, sleeping in the same bed with someone who could be a mass murderer.

"Listen Ryuzaki..." at that moment Light was interrupted by the phone ringing in their room. A brief silence wafted through the room aside from a second ring and then a third.

"You should probably get that I can ask you later," Light would mutter as Ryuzaki reached for the phone in a swift moment holding it to his ear as he sat up quickly the chain pulling Light out from under the covers nearly bucking his head into the bed frame.

"Ryuzaki here," he would say in a soft mutter lapsed with a yawn that softly crackled over the phone. It was Soichro," Ryuzaki there have been more murders Kira struck again."

His eyes were automatically brought to Light who murmured in a sleepy tone," What's wrong don't tell me..."

Ryuzaki nodded in confirmation," Yeah...more heart attacks." Even though they could barely see each other in the darkness of the room a tension was felt as if there was in invisible presence that gave an uncomfortable aura. Both of them knowing the other was keeping as close an eye on the other through the darkness. Ryuzaki clapped his hands turning on the lights in their room and shimmied over so he was on Light's side of the bed draping his legs down over the side to the floor.

"Ryuzaki..." Light's voice was soft and composed wondering in his head if he actually was Kira the thought of all the killings out there and that one single person in the world was doing it and the prime suspect in the case was himself. He felt he might get an ulcer any day now just from the stress alone not to mention the sleep deprivation that always made sleep elude him. He wanted to be able to convince Ryuzaki that he wasn't Kira but it frightened him that he couldn't figure out a reason that he wasn't that could measure up to his standards. He wanted to find this killer and bring them to justice and he'd rather be Ryuaki's friend then his suspect. But at the current moment he felt more like a criminal than anything being chained to another person. He looked to Ryuzaki who was staring curiously back to him.

"I..." At that moment their room door burst open it was Misa squealing Light's name giving him a tackle hug nearly knocking him off his balance.

"Misa now's not the best time," Light said softly too much on his mind to be able to put all the pieces together all at once the recent death's him being

chained Ryuzaki thinking he's Kira it all was beginning to feel overwhelming to him. No, he thought to himself, I can't let this beat me I can handle this I can prove my innocence

"Aww Light-kun what's wrong?" She asked in a winey worried voice while latching onto him the gears turning around in Ryuzaki's head at just how these two managed to get together. Light didn't seem like the kind of person to just randomly get a girlfriend on a whim and why Misa? It occurred to him that this could be something he could have Light look into just for the sake of his own investigation on whether or not Misa could be the second Kira and in turn Light be the first Kira. How did she come to know him by name let alone how'd they even meet. There were pieces in place that didn't belong where they placed and it was eating at him.

"There's been more attacks Misa I'd rather try and keep catching Kira on the top of my list of priorities," he said in a hushed tone standing up and tried walking towards the door but is halted by a tug on the handcuffs.

"Misa do you think you could leave Light and I alone for a few minutes?" He was sure of it now he would ask Light about Misa to find out what she knew about Kira and see if he could make any connections between the two of them. This was starting to get frustrating to him he didn't like to have to deal with so many people yet here he was neck deep in a whole entire task division.

"Heyyy now Light is still my boyfriend you know?" She said in an angry huff putting her hands on her hips," We should be doing stuff together and."

"Misa stop, you know I'm part of this task force now and you need to know that I have to do my part to help with the investigation I'm not going to make any promises we'll be able to go out anywhere into this is all figured out you even have to have your own personal room because we're still under surveillance. I know it's unfair but you need to keep patient so please the more time we have to work on the case the sooner we may get to hang out again. Personally I really don't even remember how we met."

And there it was. The question right out in the open. Now was the opportune time to ask," Misa." He asked biting at the end of his index finger staring at her leaning in," How did you and Light meet and how did you know his name before meeting him?

"I...I don't know," She couldn't put her finger on it but it felt as if there was a blur where their meeting had taken place. As if something was blocking her memory"

"And what would you think...if Light here was actually Kira?" He was getting more and more interested filling in the blanks of what would lead him closer to the closing of the investigation it's like all his hunches eventually turned out to be true so could Light and Misa still be the first and second Kira?

She looked to Light and hugged his arm," I'd love it I respect Kira because he killed the murderers who killed my parents." A memory of hers that still remained a life changing event for her whoever Kira was at this time she wished that they never did catch him but if they didn't catch Kira then she and Light couldn't be together. She sighed looking at the two of them a flush of red went across her face still annoyed feeling as if Ryuzaki was taking him away from her," Okay fine...call me if you get the chance okay Light-kun?"

With that she left the room going into hers laying back on the couch sighing. When the door closed Ryuzaki looked back to Light now was the time to ask.

"Now Light I need to ask you something. I need you to use Misa to figure out any more information on Kira."

What?! Was that his question? He wasn't surprised but he would still feel all the more annoyed that he could make such a raucous request.

"Are you kidding me? I'm not going to play with Misa's emotions like that you may have the social bounds of a teaspoon but I refuse to be like that."

Ryuzaki hadn't expected such a response on Light's part it felt like a whole new character about him he was kinda impressed that he declined.

"But I've vowed this before and I'll vow it to you Ryuzaki. I will do whatever it takes to capture Kira," Light's face now serious looking back towards

Ryuzaki feeling like he made the desired effect on him. Light would sit down and pull out a laptop from under the bed logging onto the main server of the task force to see what information had been figured out so far getting caught up in recent events. Ryuzaki would sit on the other corner of the bed with his own laptop feeling silly his plans at creating a bridge of friendship failed because he once again put the case before understanding or something like that. He didn't really have much of a social life when he was younger and not too many friends. What am I going to do? He thought to himself as he looked through the information on the case and it struck him. He switched to an alternate window to go onto to search for book possibilities that could help him better to understand how to make friends and influence people. He actually saw a book labeled just that and he stared at the screen looking through the possibilities biting his thumb murmuring to himself.

"Perhaps I'm over thinking this. It shouldn't be this hard," he looked over to Light who was working deligently not making a sound. How does he do it? He thought to himself. Even though all of this he still manages to have a cool head I've accused him of being Kira on numerous counts and he always seems to be accepting in the possibility of it being true. Maybe I was wrong in thinking Light is Kira maybe he was just happened to be a coincidence. But he knew deep inside that he couldn't just drop his hunch based on morals and yet he was starting to feel just how a friendship with someone effected his judgment. Great I have to be smart and nice too. Prehaps if I just learn how to deal with social situations that come to pass then I can act out how a friend would act. He decided to push it out of his head and got back to work on the case.

A day passed and they still were nowhere near to gaining any information on catching Kira the only bright side to the day was that Ryuzaki's package arrived and he felt for the first time in awhile a sense of excitement. He decided to wait until night swept over until he opened it so he instructed Matsuda to place it under his bed to open later.

Night shone through the windows of the cool room the moon light sending it's rays along the floor of the room and Ryuzaki had the parcel on his lap with a small reading lamp turned on. He carefully ripped open the package and there was the book. He felt silly and a crooked smile swept across his face as he opened the book. The title was straight and to the point, Friendship. He began reading through the various chapters of the book figuring out the different paradigms to friendships depending on how sacred the friendship was. By the time it was 1am he even felt the tug of sleep at his eyes looking back to Light. Light Yagami, he whispered to himself, friend or foe. He put a bookmark to keep his place where he had stopped where a new chapter had begun a chapter labled with one word, Love. He carefully placed his book under the bed and stared into the darkness of the room until sleep swept him away unsure of what the future may hold in his newly acquired "friendship."
