Author's Notes: Okay, this is my second Death Note fic and the first Death Note M-rate)) It was supposed to be a one-shot, but I think I'll stretch it out for you, guyz) I'm so excited))
"Mmm?"
"And good morning to you as well, Raito-kun." Mumbled L from behind his laptop. He was sitting on their bed in his usual position, typing away, trying to find something, anything to help solve the case. So far, nothing. Raito-kun is good at feigning innocence - L mused.
"Working so early? Ryuuzaki, you're a maniac." Raito stretched his tense muscles, trying to get his tired body to wake up for a new day of torture.
L couldn't help but watch as Raito stretched his taut limbs, groaning. He tried not to let his stare wonder up to his adversary's long neck.
Raito-kun, you think this is torture? Imagine not being able to feed normally... Imagine being so close to what you desire, and never getting it...
Ironic, wasn't it? L was chasing a mass-murderer, when he himself wasn't as innocent as everybody thought. Only Watari knew his true nature, having made him this way. Not by his own free will, of course.
The world's greatest detective... A blood-sucking monster.
"Ryuu?"
"Hm?"
Since when did he have a nickname?
"Do you still think I'm Kira?"
He asked the same question every day, hoping for a different answer. L never changed his mind, if not only to keep the potential killer as close to himself as possible, but also to keep Raito with him. His smell was the most delicious pain L had ever felt - smooth, sweet, spicy and silky - just like Raito himself - composed of many different scents - all of them unique and wonderful.
L felt his gums prickling with anticipation and ordered himself to calm down. Or course, he knew it was only for a while. The need, the craving, the want would come back three times as worse as it was now, and one day he would reach his breaking point.

"What are you doing, standing out there in the rain?"
Trying to wash off your scent, Raito-kun.
Despite himself, L decided to taunt Raito a little more - he cupped his hand to his ear, smirking.
Raito, frustratedly, took a few steps towards Ryuuzaki. He couldn't help but admit that the older man looked angelic in the rain. Ethereal, beautiful... Where are you going with this, Raito? This guy wants you behind bars. This guy is your worst nightmare. This guy...
Is everything you've ever wanted.
"Raito-kun?"
Raito came closer to L, so close, they were almost touching. Almost...
L tried to stop breathing, but he knew all was in vain the second he saw Raito on the roof. Today had to be it. Even is Raito were to kill him (which he, by the way, couldn't unless he put a silver bulled through his heart), he wanted to take a sip of Raito's blood before death. He never did anything for himself, always fighting evil. He could be a little selfish from time to time, right?
He started into the younger man's amber eyes, unable to tear away his gaze. He was surprised to find Raito couldn't, either. An old legend came to mind, though... No, it couldn't be...
"Ryuu, let's head back. It's freezing." Raito whispered,his lips barely moving, not knowing why he was so mesmerized by the detective's face.
For you, not for me...
"Let's stay here a little longer, Raito-kun." he murmured in answer, still not looking away. He didn't feel the coldness of the raindrops that cascaded onto him, he only felt their slight brush over his skin. Gentle, almost teasing. Never fully touching, always leaving him wanting for more... Just like Raito.
"Ryuu... You seem so lost in thought. Like you're in pain... Tell me, what's wrong?" Raito reached out to put his hand onto L's shoulder, surprised to find his concern was genuine. Strangely, the latter didn't pull away, but seemed to lean into the touch slightly, though not completely. "Did something else happen?"
"Raito-kun... I know I probably won't live through this case... It might happen soon, you know." L stated, the lie not showing in his eyes. "But, since the beginning, I was always wondering about one thing. All I'm asking is to let me try something. Will you?"
Raito hesitated for a split second. What did L want of him? Did he know the truth? Despite all his instincts, all his logics, Raito nodded, waiting for whatever L had in store for him.
"You trust me that much?" L asked, not taking his eyes off Raito's. He couldn't believe what he was about to do - it was against all his rules, all of his existence. But was it so wrong for a man to give into his wishes once in a while?
Raito nodded again, feeling his face heat up.
"Then close your eyes."
Taking a shuddering breath, the younger man slowly closed his eyes, his heart beating violently against his rib cage. Though this was probably the scariest moment of his life, his whole body shook with desire, as if his very blood was laced with anticipation.
L circled his enemy in small steps, trying to find a flaw in him. None. It's as if for once L's shrewd eyes couldn't find anything out of place.
To me, you are perfect...
He stopped in front of Raito, breathing in his scent, a whole lungful, enjoying it and then pressed his lips to the younger man's.
Raito's breath hitched as he felt soft velvety lips on his own, massaging them gently. Not knowing why he was doing so, he opened his mouth a little further, allowing Ryuuzaki a little exploration, letting the latter's soft tongue caress his own...
He'd never felt anything so gentle, so loving... He'd never wandered what it would be like, to be pampered and loved. That's right, he could feel from the way L's lips touched his own, that the older man was in love with him. And somehow, he felt the same way about him...
Throwing away all his inhibitions, Raito kissed L back, a little shyly. The moment felt magical, like it would disappear, and both of them didn't want to do anything to disturb it.
Finally, as oxygen became crucial, they pulled back, breathing heavily. L looked up at Raito, trying to read some kind of emotion, some kind of fault... No, he was still perfect.
That's when he decided he would take the plunge.
Pressing his body to Raito's completely, he found himself staring at the crook of Raito's neck - suddenly so tempting, so beautiful. He breathed in sharply, zeroing in on the pulse point.
Then, acting on pure instinct, he bit down gently. He heard Raito's painful whimper, and then, when Raito's blood hit his tongue...
He'd never felt this way before. In his 396 years, he'd never enjoyed a human's blood so much. It was magical, pure, fantastic... His world exploded into zillions of pieces, and the only thing he could think of was Raito - the man who filled his body, his heart, his soul...
It was when he heard Raito moan softly, he realized what was happening. He remembered being told by Watari, though he didn't ever believe in it...
"For a vampire, there is always someone special out there - a mate, a human whose blood would sing to you, someone who would stay by your side forever, provide you with sustenance, and in return, share your immortality and live the eternity with you..."
When he felt he couldn't drink any more, he reluctantly pulled his fangs out, licking the tiny wounds to heal them.
He suddenly felt Raito's arms around him, hugging him close. He found himself trapped in the delicious scent that was Raito and felt his head spinning.
"Why?" Raito's voice came out as a hoarse whisper.
"I don't know... But somehow, I don't care." Answered L, burying his face in Raito's shoulder and putting his arms around Raito.
"Me neither." Answered Raito. He then pulled back and L was surprised to find a smile on his face. "Let's head back. You have a lot of explaining to do, don't you think, Lawliet?"
"How?..."
"I don't know."
End Notes: So what do you think? Review, review))
