Trouble At The Door

Colton's POV

'What?!'

"I'll grind the stone…" Dr. Callahan said, rubbing the stone. The soft glow emitting from the stone captured my gaze and I felt a pull…No, it wasn't from me.

L has been quiet ever since he heard the words Dr. Callahan said, and wondered what he was thinking.

Dr. Callahan ignored me, then placed the stone inside a bowl. He picked a jug and poured some water inside the bowl. My eyes watched his actions and a smile appeared on my face.

'He truly lives up to his name. Don't you think so too, L?' I asked, obviously trying to piss him off, and it worked.

' Watch your mouth! Do you think I'm scared of this mortal?' He sneered coldly, and I chuckled.

'Oh? When did I mention the latter?' I chuckled, and this time he went silent.

I slapped my thigh as I stopped myself from laughing. Who would believe it when I tell them a mighty being as L was scared of Dr. Collahan?
