L was sitting on his rolling chair sucking on a lollipop when Mogi interrupted his thinking session.

"Alright Ryuzaki, I'm going home."

L blinked, slightly confused at first, but then realized that today is Thanksgiving.

"Okay, happy thanksgiving."

Mogi walked out the door. L looked around the room and just realized that he was alone. Everyone went home for the day to celebrate thanksgiving with their family. Even Matsuda went home because he got a girlfriend recently and is celebrating it with her and her family.

Family..

L can't remember a time where he celebrated thanksgiving with someone else other than Watari. Except this time Watari had to go back to the orphanage to check on a few things.

Which leaves L alone.

L sighed, stirred his tea, and remained sitting in his chair for a few moments. L sipped his tea and went into the kitchen. He pulled a chocolate cake out of the fridge, cut himself a nice big slice, and put it on a plate.

He opened a drawer and grabbed a fork. The shuffled back into the work room.

"Happy thanksgiving.." L murmured to the empty room. Then he dug in and continued working, not noticing a tear making it's way down his cheek.

He also didn't notice the door opening, or a figure making it's way into the room.

"Ryuzaki."

L's head snapped up to his alias and relaxed (on the inside).

"Hello, Light-kun, what brings you here?"

Light seemed to be taking a good look at L, the look in his eyes show sincerity or pity.

"Well, I forgot my charger to my phone and decided to come back and get it," Light said. He walked over to his side of the desk and grabbed the charger.

"I see," L turned back to his laptop.

"Hey, Ryuzaki?"

"Yes?"

"Would you like to come and spend thanksgiving with us?"

L almost dropped his cake and looked up at Light with wide eyes, "Light-kun, I don't want to intrude.."

"I insist. You shouldn't be spending thanksgiving working and alone."

".."

"C'mon Ryuzaki."

L hesitantly got up from his chair, slowly, and looked at Light, "Are you sure? I honestly don't want to-" He was interrupted by Light who walked over to him and yanked him out the door.

L couldn't help but let out a small smile.

I guess this changes things, he thought. L looked up at the sky,

Happy thanksgiving.
