Chapter VIII: Yukinori Shinohara

              It's been a couple weeks and I have finally caught up on some sleep, although I've been having a weird dream. No matter what type of day it was, it would always start off with me being around everyone I cared about, then my right eye would turn into that of a ghoul's. I can't remember what would happen after that, but I let it slip from my mind after a while. 

         I woke up one morning to find my right eye as it was in my dreams. I walk over to my mirror, thinking that I was hallucinating. After realizing that this wasn't my mind playing tricks on me, I figured that my eye changing was a side effect of the excessive RC cells now in my body, but that was about all that I knew. 

        It may seem like a stupid thing to do, but I decided to tell L. No point in keeping secrets anyway.

       'He would understand... right?'


         I made my way to where L was. He currently had a room in Whammy's but it was top secret. The only person that knew was myself, and Watari of course. It was early in the morning but I knew that he would be awake since he almost never slept. I knocked on his door lightly and heard a quiet voice respond.

         "Come in." I take a deep before turning the knob. 

            I enter the small room and close the door behind me, leaning against it. I was confident about this decision a moment ago, but that confidence seems to have turned to anxiety. L, having noticed my quietness, turns his chair to face me, a piece of cake resting on a saucer in his hand. He signals for me to come closer and after a moments hesitation, I do.

          I stop a few feet in front of him, not willing to meet his piercing gaze, I turn my attention to the floor. 

          "L... there's some I've been— there's something I want to tell you." I stutter, trying to find the right words. 

          "Is it about your past?" He injuries, to which I nod silently. 

          He gestures to the seat beside himself. I walk over and take his offer. After sitting down, I;m able to work up enough courage to look into his charcoal eyes. He's staring at me with an eyebrow lightly raised. I sigh, looking away again. 

          "How much do you know about me?" I question him timidly, may voice shaking. He contemplated his answer carefully for a minute before giving me an answer. 

            "Only what happened to you after you came into contact with BB. Nothing more, nothing less." I nod, seeing that the response was perfectly logical. There was no other way that would know more about me unless he was there. Or he was spying on me for some reason... 

I swallow the lump in my throat, afraid of what I'm about to say.

"L, I don't know how to say this but... I'm not fully... human." There! I said it!

 'Subtle, way to go, (y/n).'

  'Now he's either going to reject me or say something like I know.  Probably the first one.' As much as I was trying to look on the bright side, I couldn't help but think the latter. I hold my breath as I wait for his response. It felt like an eternity before he finally spoke.

"...I know..." He admits, softly.

My eyes widen at his words. "Well, actually I guess I should say I suspected.

 My jaw falls open as I look at him in disbelief. 

"What?!" I shout before throwing my hands over my mouth.
