A/N: Hey everybody! I decided to do a series of songfics for the pairing Matt/Mello, and LightxL. You can suggest songs and which pairing of the two, the first fic I will do is going to be about LxLight and it will be based on the song 505 by Arctic Monkeys.

L is dead.

Light could be Kira now.

No more big obstacles.

So what were those tears?

Why?

Why on earth was Light Yagami mourning over Ryuzaki's dead body?

"Light, let him go." He heard his father's voice.

It sounded so far away.

Like an echo.

He wanted to hear Ryuzaki accuse him.

He remembered the number of the room he first met L. Number 505.

"Light...Please." He saw Matsuda's dark eyes looking at him pleadingly. Eventually, his father dragged him away.

His gaze was still fixed on Ryuzaki. He didn't resist. He couldn't.

He felt numb.

Light Yagami never cared about anything more than his new world.

This time he didn't care about Ryuzaki more either.

It hurt though.

"Hello sir."

"Hey. I want to book a room...505."

"I will check whether it is free." Light looked at the petite woman who opened a note with numbers.

He remember walking those stairs up to the last floor, to room 505.

It took him 45 minutes to get there by walking.

And it made him frustrated.

Now,

Even if it was a seven hour flight, he'd take as well.

"It is free. You can go. ID card please." Light threw it on the desk carelessly supressing a dry laugh.

He would pull off an act pretending he was scared Kira might learn his name and face but he wasn't in the mood even for that. He heard the girl say something as he got the keys and ID card and left for the room.

When he opened the door, he wished silently that Ryuzaki would be sitting on the couch as usual.

"Missed me, Light-kun?" Light's heart skipped a beat as he saw Ryuzaki with his arms between his thighs sitting on the couch.

He was dead.

But he didn't care.

Even if he was hallucinating.

"Yes, Light, I am dead. You had Rem kill me, remember?"

Light remained silent and looked almost pleadingly at Ryuzaki.

"What did you expect? You told me we were going to part on the roof. You knew I am Kira."

"When you looked at me like that, Yagami Raito, what did you expect?"

"What?"

"Your eyes had changed. You used to look at me differently. Like an ally. Then even your slightest glances changed."

"We were never allies."

"Then what are you doing here?" L's expression remained unreadable as he started gnawing his thumb.

"I guessed I'd still adore you with your hands around my neck."

"When did that happen, Light-kun?"

"The first and last time you ever slept normally, you turned around put your arms around my neck. I thought you were going to kiss me."

"Oh. I didn't know that one. And you adored it?"

"What's the point in lying, yes, I did, Ryuzaki."

"No need to call me Ryuzaki anymore. I am L. L Lawliet." L stood up, his posture as usual.

For some reason, Light shivered after hearing the name.

He wanted to look in Rem's note after he got it, but it didn't feel right.

It was Ryuzaki's last secret.

He didn't want to know it.

And it felt so unfamiliar to Light to hear it.

"You were never shy of a spark, were you L?"

"I am was always ambitious. But so are you. Even more than I am, I'd dare to say. Or at least, I was."

The knife twisted at the thought that Ryuzaki wasn't anymore.

"Did it hurt you when...I died?"

"It did. More than I imagined it would."

"Frightened by the bite though it's no harsher than a bark, Light-kun. You knew I was going to die. It just hurt to see it."

"I can't understand why. Why did it hurt. You were only an obstacle."

"Maybe."

"But...you came in the middle of my adventure. Kira's new world. Imagine how would it be if we met under other circumstances, L."

"Light-kun, the middle of adventure is such a perfect place to start."

"Would you ever give in to Kira?"

"Absolutely no, Yagami Light."

"Then it's not."

"It could be if you weren't delusional."

"I am Kira and also god of the new world, Ryuza- L." L's eyes turned dark as he absently grabbed a fistful of his white baggy shirt.

"Why did you came back to 505, Kira, then?"

"I guess...It brings memories. I'd come back even if it was a seven hour flight, instead of a forty five minute drive, Ryuzaki."

"It is L. And were you seeking me actually?"

"I...I wished for you to be here."

"And here I am. With my arms between my thighs."

Long pause.

One of those that were...dead. Light stood still at the couch with his eyes closed.

I just imagined him.

He couldn't be here.

Once somebody dies, they never come back.

And then he heard it.

A faint noise.

Like whimpering.

He opened his eyes to see the one and only L expressionless, tears running down his cheeks and letting out small sobs, he was trying to supress.

"Ryuzaki?"

"It is L! I don't need an alias anymore, Light-kun! I died! On Kira's arms!"

"I...I..."

"You regret it? No!"

"No. I had no choice, L. But...I crumble completely when you cry."

"It was you that had to greet me with goodbye."

"Will you let me do something for you? Please?" L looked taken aback but eventually nodded, wiping his tears. Light slowly moved closer and covered his eyes with his hands. "Stand up." L obediently, did so. Light went closer as his arms slided on L's back.

L tasted sweetly.

And L had a...cold taste. He tasted like death.

But Light hadn't realized he wanted that taste.

Surprisingly, L kissed back. Light noticed that L hadn't closed his eyes the whole time. Or at least he guessed so, when he pulled away. His expression remained the same as it always was and his eyes were open.

"You spoiled the surprise, Light-kun. You took your hands off my eyes too soon, before I closed my eyes. I feel disappointed."

"I never disappoint."

"Did I though?"

"L...no matter what, the reason I killed you was because you are no inferior from me."

"I should probably show you all the reasons this is sick, but I won't. Because, I was born sick."

"Promise me that you will be here when I wake up. Sitting as always next to me. And then go. But...I want this to happen one last time."

"I will. Sleep, Light-kun."

"Matsuda, bring my cell quickly. He doesn't answer." Light's eyes focused on the floor in front of him.

"Dad? What happened?"

"Forget it, Matsuda." Light saw the blurry form of Soichiro Yagami in front of him. "Light, you scared us. You kept on looking at Ryuzaki's body and even after the ambulance came, you wouldn't react. We thought about sending you too. You were in some kind of trance. Did Ryuzaki's death shock you that much?"

L Lawliet.

Was that really his name?

What was that?

"I want to go to 505, dad. The room. At Teito hotel." Soichiro Yagami casted a weird look.

"I don't think it's healthy for you to."

"I must."

Light closed his eyes and opened the door.

Empty.

It was almost like a seven hour flight to him until he arrived.

And there was nothing.

He brought the Note out of his back. And opened it.

L Lawliet. That was indeed his name.

"Missed me Light-kun?"

And he was there. With his arms between his thighs, and a smile.
