Oops :)

"Majvår? That's a very... Scandinavian name." L was left speechless as M reveals her true identity to him.

"It's Swedish, to be exact. Guess we're even now?" M teases and L nods. The two observe the bright lights outside on the romantic night in admiration.

They had been on the date for quite long now, and M was chuckling at L digging into the cake. L also gave up on sitting normally and went to his normal sitting position.

"I don't mean to ruin the mood," L suddenly speaks up as M stops and looks up at him with a puzzled countenance. What could L say that would possibly ruin this mood?

M had no response to this. "The reason I wanted to take you here was because..." L stops midway in his sentence and looks around. With a sigh he lowers his voice.

"I believe I don't have much time left. I'm sorry having to mention this now, I really am." L begins, brushing over M's hand with his thumb. The brims of M's eyes well up with sudden tears as she sits wide-eyed.

She was speechless. "If I die... I wanted to say that I love you. Don't ever forget that. If I do pass away, do not take over the Kira case, understood? It's not the fact that I don't trust you, it's just that I don't want such a young and beautiful woman such as yourself to share the same fate with me. And please, save your friend Skye too. I feel as if she is in a dangerous position with Light Yagami." L explains. M was startled by this random behavior.

"L... I can't just leave without an explanation if you were- dead. Which I refuse to admit you are going to even die in the first place-." L cuts M off as he places a finger on her lips.

He lowers his hand into his left pocket, wrapping his fingers around a small piece of paper. L slips it to M under the table as M raises an eyebrow in curiosity. She carefully unfolds it to see two phone numbers scribbled onto it.

"These two numbers are numbers of some good friends of mine that you can contact. However choose wisely because once you may only call one of these numbers. A person will answer asking what your name is, and I expect you to reply with Valentina. Make sense?" L's expression was blank. M shakes her head up and down swiftly, tears streaming from her eyes. Why was L doing this?

M couldn't hold back her feelings anymore. "I'm sorry L- I've got to go."

And with that the girl left leaving a dazzled L.

After that interesting night was over, L didn't dare speak to M. Light and Skye kept persisting the two to ask what was wrong. Neither responded.

Meanwhile, November 5th, a seemingly normal day for the the investigation. L was glaring at his boring old monitor screen, while Light was discussing something with Skye. M was reading over the note that L had given her. She was trying to memorize in case she needed to dispose of it.

The room flashes red as the computer monitor screens went blank. Everyone in the room turns in horror only to see all of the computers displaying the same message.

"All data erased."

L's eyes went huge as he scrambles to uncover this event. He stops dead as he hears Watari.

"I told Watari to delete the data in case of an... emergency."

The room fell silent. It was as if time itself had come to a halt. L fell off his chair and clutches his chest with a groan.

L was murdered by Kira.

M couldn't believe what she was seeing. L was right. She wasn't sure if it was staged, or if L was spot on. She could never come back now, not after what just happened.

M runs as fast as she can, nearly tripping from panic. Her heart pounds in her chest as she scrambles to grab her phone. M clicks, no nearly slams, the buttons as she dials the second number L had given her. If she knew L, he must have wanted her to do the second one, right?

The other side rings for a moment, and finally answers.

"Hello. Is this Melanie?" The voice sounds fairly young, about M's age. However, this person had an unfriendly sounding tone.

M clears her throat before speaking. "No, sorry, this is Valentina."


The other line gasps quietly, but tries hiding it. "I see... Valentina." They had a bit of hesitance in their voice as if they couldn't believe what they were hearing. "There's a coffee shop near, no not near, around," they begin, correcting themselves. "Sixth Street that just opened 'bout a week ago. You interested in coming with me?"

M pauses. Was this the right person L had pointed out? Guess it was worth a try. "Sure, I'll see you there."

But what would happen if M chose the wrong number?
