Luck and You

Chapter 40



L went to Patrice's apartment that same night. He couldn't help it. He wanted to know if she is safe.

Everything in his mind is all about the worst case scenario.

What if the note was a trap and Patrice was kidnapped, raped, killed?

She didn't even tell him she loves him.

What will L do?

He waited until he saw Patrice step out of the elevator with a man.

L narrowed his eyes at the two. He clenched his fist. And darn, how he wanted his fist to land on that man's face.

How dare he talk to Patrice and laugh with her like that?

HOW COULD HE?!

Patrice stopped in her tracks once she noticed L looking at them. "Lance." She muttered.

L gave her a look. "Who is he?" He asked.

Patrice looked at Patrick who doesn't even have an idea on what is going on.

"I am Patrick Kwon." He extended his hand for a shake.

But L rolled his eyes. "Whatever." He replied.

Patrick raised his brow. *He asked who I was and he replies 'whatever'? Tch. I don't like this guy! Is he my sister's boyfriend?*

Patrice glared at L.

L glared back. "I just passed to see if you are alright. Seems like you are having a good time." He said as he turned to leave. "Good night. See you at school." He said as he walked on. Patrice and Patrick were shocked at L's attitude.

"What is wrong with him?" Patrick asked.

Patrice shrugged.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Patrick asked.

Patrice shook her head. "No." She replied.

"Then why is he jealous?" Patrick asked.

Patrice's eyes widened. "He's jealous?" She asked clueless about everything.

Patrick looked at Patrice. He couldn't believe his sister is this innocent. Or is she just numb to not feel that L is jealous?

He chuckled. "Okay. Go in. I'll see you tomorrow morning." He said.

Patrice smiled. "You take care." She replied.

Patrick nodded. "You can call me 'oppa' now." He suggested.

Patrice smiled awkwardly. Well, it is hard for her to call him Oppa right now because it is their first meeting.

He laughed. "Okay. I understand. But if the DNA test tomorrow tells us that we are related, then you have to call me oppa." He ordered. Patrice smiled and nodded. "Sure." She replied. "You have to go. It's late." She said.

Patrick nodded. "Okay. See you tomorrow, sissy." He beamed as he left.

Patrice smiled. "Brother." She mumbled as she went in.

"HOW COULD SHE BE WITH SOMEONE ELSE WHEN HERE I AM WORRYING THE FUCK OUT OF MY SENSES FOR HER?!"

The Infinite members gathered once again at the club because L is really disappointed tonight.

L drank his fourth bottle of beer.

"GOSH! I CAN'T BELIEVE I WORRIED THAT MUCH FOR HER?!" L screamed once again.

The Infinite members just looked at each other, shaking their heads at their visual who is shouting his heart out right now.

The club is noisy but L is definitely noisier.

And duh, this is the first time L had been this way, depressed and lonely and angry and disappointed.

Who would think that the girl who made his like this is the girl he used to despise the most?

"But really, L, are you sure there is something going on with Patrice and the guy?" Dean asked. Well, he is the only one who could talk to L like that when L is raging.

He isn't the best friend for nothing you know!

L sighed and messed his hair. "They are obviously laughing together and to me they really look sweet. Tch. I hate that Patrick Kwon guy." He said before drinking the bottle straight up. Alonzo narrowed his eyes on him. "What did you say? Patrick Kwon?" He asked.

L nodded.

Night laughed out loud. "Seriously, L? You are jealous of her brother?" He asked laughing out loud.

L stopped for a moment and absorbed everything in. "Brother?" He mumbled.

Jeric shook his head. "Patrice Kwon? Patrick Kwon? Does that ring a bell?" He asked him.

L's eyes widened. "HOLY SHIT! I have messed with the wrong person!" He beamed as he stood up and ran to his car to Patrice's apartment.

"WHAT THE FUCK, LANCE KIM! HOW COULD YOU BE SO DUMB LIKE THAT?!" He exclaimed as he stopped at the red light, muttering a string of curses about traffic laws. He drove really fast to Patrice's apartment, which he reached in no time.

"PATRICE! Patrice! Open up!" He knocked nonstop.

Damn. He should have been nice to her brother. What would her brother think of him now? He wouldn't approve him for Patrice!

*Damn you, Lance and your short string!* He thought as he continued knocking.

After a while, the door opened, revealing a half-lidded Patrice Kwon.

L didn't even waste time and hugged her tightly. "Sorry. Sorry." He repeated.

Patrice was shocked at L's gesture but she let him hug her like that.

"Sorry for what I have acted earlier. Sorry, I didn't know. Sorry, Patrice." He repeated.

Patrice smiled and nodded hugging him back. "It's fine." She replied.

L broke the hug and looked at her. "Are you sure? What if your brother doesn't like me for you and he will pull you away from me?" He asked nervously.

Patrice laughed at him. This is the first time she actually saw L this nervous. And seriously, she likes it to the bones. She couldn't believe that L actually has someone to fear. "Why are you laughing at me?" He asked.

Patrice looked at him. "Because you sound like you are my boyfriend. No. You sound like a husband." She replied and continued laughing.

L blinked at her. How could she think of this as a joke?

Patrice looked at him and held his cheek. "Oh, and if you want to apologize to him, you can come tomorrow morning. We are going to undergo DNA testing." She informed. L looked at her. "Really?" He asked.

Patrice nodded. "Yes." She replied. "So, can you go now? I feel really sleepy." She said yawning.

L nodded and smiled. "Okay. I'll see you first thing in the morning." He said as he turned his back on Patrice. "Oh. I forgot." HE said as he turned back and gave Patrice as kiss on the cheek. "Good night, Karate Kid." He said as he rushed out of the door.

Patrice stood still, stoned in her place, absorbing what happened. She touched the spot that L kissed and felt butterflies in her stomach.

Damn. What magic has L casted in her to make feel this way?

"Why are your eyes like that, Patrice?" Patrick asked her as they walked to his car.

"Yeah, Patrice, why do you have the eyes of a panda?" L asked.

Patrick raised his brow at L. "Hey, you. Are you courting my sister?" He asked.

L's eyes widened and bowed. "Yes, sir!" He beamed politely.

Patrick was preventing a laugh from escaping his mouth as he looked at L, who was an aggressive hguy last night, become a puppy now.

Patrice sighed as she saw L act so weak in front of Patrick. "Stop it, Death note. Stop your front." She told him.

L pouted, much to Patrice's disgust. "UGH! STOP IT!" She beamed as she hopped in Patrick's car.

L was about to sit beside Patrice when Patrick called him.

"YOU!" HE called. "Seat beside me. Don't even dare lay a finger on my sister." He ordered.

L stood still and walked to the passenger seat.

*Damn.* He thought. *Can't believe Patrice having a brother is a part of the obstacle!* He screamed in his thoughts.

Patrick smirked. *This is going to be fun. I'm going to tell the boys.* HE naughtily thought. *We'll see what you got, Lance Kim. Let's see if you're good enough for my baby sister.* He continued as he revved the engine.
