-1A/N: Heeeey. I swear I am working on my other current works as well, but I felt the need to write this. Why? Because I'm the author, which means I can. Heh. This isn't really all that graphic, but just to be safe, it's rated M.

Light is wearing a jeans and T-shirt ensemble … because…uh…I say so. You can choose whatever color you want (I kept seeing white, naturally). And although L does top, it's not because he's really dominant or anything…Light just relinquished power for a bit. Also, the song is interwoven into the fic. If it is for any reason deleted, you can find it on Forever Fandom, where my name is Love Bites.

Disclaimer: L and Light and Death Note are not mine…Best Of You by the Foo Fighters is not mine either, because it is too good.

L placed both hands on Light's shoulders. Light paused in his monotonous key tapping to look up as L shoved him down.

I've got another confession to make / I'm your fool.

Light crashed to the floor, the chain sliding across itself to gather at Light's side, his shirt rising up a L's hands brushed over his chest.

Everyone's got their chains to break / Holding you

Light's fingers strayed to L's chest reflexively, trying to hold him back.

Were you born to resist or be abused?

L pulled his hand up, pushing it under Light's shirt, a ghost smile gracing his features at the feel of smooth skin. The was a shudder from Light and he let out a breath of laughter at the touch.

Is someone getting the best the best the best of you/ Is someone getting the best the best the best of you?

Ah, L realized, Light's ticklish. He ran his finger tips down to his naval. Light flinched, trying to wriggle away. L was pressing down on him without thinking, and Light briefly thought of Misa.

Are you gone and on to someone new?

Any thought of his supposed girlfriend was swept away when L leaned down and kissed his neck.

I needed somewhere to hang my head / Without your noose

L sighed against the neck under his mouth, content.

You gave me something that I didn't have / But had no use

Light began to try to get away again, clutching L's wrists, but lost the will to move.

I was too weak to give in

L moved his hands to the side of Light's shoulders, wrists never released.

Too strong to loose

L lowered his head, catching unprotected lips.

My heart is under arrest again

Light gasped into the kiss, and L pulled back.

But I break loose

L stared at Light, gazes locked in silence, neither wanting nor willing to look away.

My head is giving me life or death / But I can't choose

Light swallowed, his hands slipping away, pushing himself up to meet the other's lips.

I swear I'll never give in / I refuse

L opened his mouth, letting Light nibble at his lower lip.

Is someone getting the best the best the best of you/ Is someone getting the best the best the best of you?

Light's mind was grasping at straws, trying to cling to Misa, the Death Note, the investigation, Kira, anything, as it all spun violently out of control.

Has someone taken your faith?

Light reached up, tugging L closer to him.

It's real the pain you feel / You trust / You must

"L-!"

Confess

L thrust his hands beneath Light's shirt, pealing it up and off him.

Is someone getting the best the best the best of you/ Is someone getting the best the best the best of you?

Somehow they were on their feet, stumbling back to their room, falling readily onto the awaiting bed.

You gave me something that I didn't have

Without reluctance, Light position himself on his back, L crawling over him.

Is someone getting the best the best the best of you?

One last thought that he could stop this came to mind, and Light pushed it aside.

Has someone taken your faith?

There clothes were already littered on the floor, and there was an instant of pain as L pushed into him.

It's real the pain you feel

"Oh gods-"

You trust

"- be careful-"

You must

"I will, Light."

Confess

L set his hands on Light's shoulders, dragging himself up the lean body under him.

Is someone getting the best the best the best of you/ Is someone getting the best the best the best of you?

Light flung his head back on the pillows-

It's real

-and raked his nails down L's forearms.

The pain you feel

"-ah-Light-"

"-sorry-"

The life the love you'd die to heal

L thrust again, making Light claw the sheets and arch up.

The hope that starts the broken hearts

Light desperately tried to control his breathing, but let out a gasp, and then released the last shreds of sense as it all slipped away.

You trust you must

The two bodies clutched each other, quivering.

Confess

Light's strength gave out, and he fell back again.

I've got another confession to make

L collapsed on him.

I'm no fool

L edged up again, head resting on Light's shoulder, gasping softly.

I'm getting tired of starting again

Light tilted his head to look at him, sighing sympathetically.

Somewhere new

Light tugged the other half of the blanket over their bare bodies.

Were you born to resist or be abused?

Light briefly thought of Kira again, then glanced down at L.

I swear I'll never give in

L wrapped his arm over Light's waist.

I refuse

L suddenly leaned closer again, and Light closed his eyes, and met L's lips with his own.

Is someone getting the best the best the best of you/ Is someone getting the best the best the best of you?
