“Do I really look that bad?” L slid off his chair and moved to sit on the floor next to Rachel. After all of this, even if she still left, he just wanted to be closer to her for at least a moment.
“I guess we both want things we aren’t supposed to.” If L wasn’t so drained from all this , he would have probably thought it was funny. He leaned against the wall sighing. “I really do work too much. In this world most of the time, nothing really comes of it. I am bored with getting nowhere, and I am tired of being alone and doing everything. I wasn’t entirely on my own in my world. When I needed someone to talk to that I could trust I had Watari. Here, there is you.”
He smiled weakly, “And without even realizing it I fell in love. I only know now because Lilly pointed it out. I haven’t slept at all since the malfunction day. Try as I like, I couldn’t. I didn’t know what to do. I tried to force myself to decide today but I cannot seem to let myself do what I would usually consider as the right thing. I don’t want to be without you.”
“I think I reached my decision. I am not going to say goodbye to you.”
