Before long they were heading out to pick up one 'dead' body and one very much alive, Matsuda. The drive back to headquarters wasn't a quiet one as the average height individual kept apologizing. It made Koneko chuckle inwardly. Once back inside everyone tried to settle down, Matsu explained what he had heard.

"Honestly, you've done a great job. Without you taking such a risk we wouldn't be jumping ahead like this. Don't beat yourself up so much, alright." Those kind words caused a slight blush to creep onto his face. "Thanks, Koneko."

"No need to thank me. I am simply saying what the others are thinking but are too prideful to say." Shrugging, she winks before taking up her normal seat.

One by one the task members started to head off to their own quarters. Leaving L, Light, and Zia behind. Watari was already in his side room within the main area.

"How did you know what Ryuzaki was planning?" Asked the younger man, yet both males turned to look at the female. She was already looking up other connections.

L being the closest to her, stared intently, his thumb pressed up to his upper lip. Those dark eyes, almost black in color, seemed to be looking into the streaked haired woman's soul.

"I didn't." There was a pregnant pause before the soft-spoken person continued. "If one is going to fake a death, they'll need an ambulance at least. Judging from the height of the building, we'd need a heavy sack, one close enough to a human's weight. And of course, another body to load into our fake ambulance."

"Impressive. You were able to deduce that much from just being told what items would be needed." Light said with a small smile. "No, I'm not the impressive one, Ryuzaki is. He came up with that plan on the fly." At some point, the lanky yet oddly athletic person had gotten closer to Lee. Completely invading her personal space with little to no regards.

Glancing towards the chained together males. Silver, gold and spotted midnight blue orbs widen before their owner turned fully to face Ryuzaki. With a curious tilt of her head, red locks mixed with gold/blonde, black, and white swayed. Innocently she asked, "trying to get into my head or pants?"

A loud sigh could be heard coming from the brown-hair, caramel eyed boy. "Why must you do that? Always teasing." After what felt like the world's longest pause, the messy-haired man spoke. "She's not teasing, she's serious." If he could, Yagami would have left at that moment, as a ping of jealousy hit him hard. Why was unknown, since he had no feelings outside of friendly ones for the pervy young lady. "Let's get back to work or let me go to bed. It is getting late, unlike you, I can't stay up for days on end." His words came out with a bit more edge then intended. "There's no need to be jealous, Moon-Kun. So cute when he's shy." Brown hues filled with confusion before their owner replied. "W-What are you talking about?"

"Yes, Light there's no need to be shy." Joked L in his usual monotone voice. "I'm not being shy." Bottomless pit like gems glanced over to the male on his right. "No need to be so serious either."

"You never answered my question, Ryu-Ryu, but that's okay. I think I already know the answer. Or at least what I should do next time you go all space cadet while staring at me." Chuckling the female got up to leave to her own quarters.

~~Light's P.O.V~~

Is there something going on between those two? Every since Zia joined us, no, since the day we all meet at university, L has been acting a bit differently. Koneko has been different as well. A lot more relaxed around others, staying close, and she pretty much hates human interaction. So why is it that she's so open with him, with everyone? Could it have anything to do with the time they had spent alone together? Did something happen during this time? Lee normally only flirts and teases me. Is this some kind of joke or maybe they're a couple?
