God.. is this what heartbreak feels like..?

The somber, broken look in his eyes and the way his loving expression had turned to tear-stain skin.

Where's the smile?

The laugh?

It had been overcome with guilt and anxiety:

Heartbreak

You wince every time they had to move you, an inch, even a centimeter, it ached with this feeling that shred throughout every muscle in your body. You tried to cry, but you couldn't sob. It hurt. Everything did.

But despite his mistakes, Ryuzaki didn't leave your side for a second. His hands were even covered in your own blood as he was quick to help with your bandages and gauzes even when he himself was terribly hurt.

"Baby, you can do this, alright..? You're strong, I know you are.."
L whispered into your ear as tears streamed down your eyes, though you nodded.

Finally, after every cry and every yelp you let out, the doctors finally got you in a wheelchair. Your entire body shook immensely, but you made it. All you wanted now was to go home.

However, your body couldn't handle all the pain coming in so suddenly. It was too overwhelming. And slowly, your vision started to fade..

~~~

"Y/n.."
That velvet voice called out to you, you could feel the warmth of his palm cupping the cold skin on your cheek, and the softness of the silky bed sheets under you.

But your eyelids were so heavy..

almost too heavy.

But you got them to open, and there he was. Bruised face, busted lip and all. His arms stayed carefully, yet securely around your body. It was warm, and the blankets were soft.
He then leaned forward to press a slow kiss to your forehead as his fingers ran through your hair.
"Where-...Where am I..?"
You asked barely in a whisper, you felt so unbelievably weak and you couldn't do anything about it either.

"Home..I checked you out last night.."
His voice was soft and gentle, trying his best to be as careful with you as possible. Ryuzaki was afraid; terrified that if he made even one small mistake, he'd lose you. The entire incident left him so traumatized and scarred, it made your heart ache.

"Home.."
You repeated in a whisper, slowly resting your head against his chest as you let out a relaxed sigh.

That's right

Home..

Something you had never once thought you'd find in a person.

He wasn't perfect, and he made mistakes, but he was your home and always was. Ryuzaki took you in and gave you everything, and you were forever grateful. Nothing could ever compare to the impact of what he had done for you.

"Yes, baby...home.."
He reassured in a small whisper, only slightly letting his head lean against your own.
You still couldn't get the word out of your head, and still remember those days where you always came back to that house with fear in your eyes and anxiety in your stomach. It was miserable, yet it felt so far away from you now. That living nightmare was thankfully all gone now.

No matter how many people you lost throughout all of this, you truly and honestly cared about L. He felt like home for the first time in years. He always gave you that warmth, kindness; he was that someone waiting for you.

You loved everything thing he did. The way he ran his fingers through his ebony locks, his laugh, his smirk, the way he called you 'love'..everything.

You of course didn't want to have that fight in front of so many people..especially his people..but it was unavoidable.
You just..never wanted to lose L..Losing him terrified the living shit out of you.

Thinking about when you first saw him..after everything..how you watched him tremble made your heart ache in ways you couldn't put into words.
Everything was just so overwhelming. How could it get this far?

L's actions came from a good place, you understood that, but his selfishness and his lack of acknowledgment for your own feelings was what got him. You couldn't leave him..ever. You knew he must worry about everything, but all he need to do was ask you.

You understood he was just wanting to protect his girl, but he dug too deep too soon...

Deep deep down, all you just wanted was to be loved unconditionally and to feel safe in someone's arms. She wanted those arms to be L's..truly.

His somber gaze stared deep into yours with a longing; a broken, yet loving look in his eyes that seemed to have melted your heart.
"I love you...so much."
L gently whispered in a soft tone, his finger coming up to tuck a piece of hair back behind your ear.
"I'm going to take care of you..and treat you like a queen.."
A faint smile showed up unto his lips as his warm palm gently cupped your cheek.
"I promise, baby.. I'll be here for you..always.."
L pressed a gentle kiss to your forehead before slowly sitting up and pulling the blankets up over you before he got out of the bed.

He gave you that warmth that nobody else did, he just felt like home to you.

"L.."
You spoke out his name in a soft tone as your cheek stayed pressed up against the pillow.

L was actually over at a dresser towards the other side of the room, walking over to grab some pill bottles. He turned back over to you and came back over to you, crouching down to your level on the white-carpeted floor whilst he remained at your side.

A small smile creeped up at the side of his lips as his head tilted a bit to the side.
"Yes love?"
He asked with a soft, gentle voice as he looked over at you.

"I love you.."
You wanted to say..and even after hundreds of times, it wasn't enough. Saying it a million times to him just still wouldn't even be close to truly meaning how much you love and appreciate him.

It put a gentle smile on his face, making a small chuckle escape from him. He leaned forward and pressed a kiss to your cheek.
"I love you more.."
L quietly whispered into your ear before pressing a kiss to your lobe. His head looked down at the floor as he picked up a bottle taking two small round pills from it.
"Now, I need you to take two of these every six hours, they're for your pain.."
He said to you as he then grabbed a glass of water that he must've brought in there earlier before you had woken up.

"Do I need to sit up..?"
You asked, your voice still quiet and soft from everything, slowly beginning to move up with your expression in a slight wince. L widened his eyes and shook his head, his hand coming over to gently hold unto your shoulder to stop you.

"No, no, no. You're fine as you are, love. Sit still, alright?"
He let out a soft chuckle, only slight adjusting soft white pillow that resided behind you. You nodded in response while he took the glass and grabbed the pills, looking back over at you.

"Open.."
He gently spoke with you opening your mouth a bit in response. L's fingers came up to carefully place the pills into your mouth where he then let you take a sip of the water, downing the pills in one go.
"There.."
L gave that small smile to you once more, though a doorbell could be heard right before he could have even sat up.

He stood up to his full height and sighed, running a hand through his hair. L didn't exactly look ecstatic, so of course you were instantly curious.
"Who is it?"
You asked as your eyes looked up at him.

L ended up letting out one more sigh, walking over to the door and opening it.
"Somebody's come to see you, love. I'll be right back."
He walked out before you could say anything, and it wasn't long before you could hear his footsteps coming back up towards the room.

"L?"
You blinked a few times before the door to your room opened up, though it wasn't L..

"Mihael..?"
