1This was a dare. Just for the record, I don't support this pairing. -twitch-

Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note, and no matter how many times I asked Santa for it, he wouldn't fork it over -mummbles-

"Watari, can you get me a cup of tea?" L asks, scrolling on his computer and waiting for the always-given answer of "Hai." But it didn't come. L looked up to find his senior companion daydreaming. AGAIN. Not to complain, but it was getting in the was of his eating schedules.

"WATARI!" he barked, and Watari jerked back to attention.

"Hai, Ryuuzaki-san?"

"Daydream again and I'll pour tea into your ear," L said, and went back to work. Behind him, Misa giggled. Watari felt himself begin to perspire out nervousness, and quickly walked to the kitchen to fetch L's tea.

"Whatcha doooin', Watari-kun?" Misa asked, elbows propped up on the counter, holding her head. Oh, her pigtails looked so cute in the morning sun, and how the youth glittered in her eyes...

No! Watari practically shouted. That's wrong! She's a taken young girl, and you're a respectable senior citizen who works like a slave for a genius. No way it could work out, but...His eyes drifted to Misa's exposed cleavage, and quickly darted back up to her face.

"I-I'm, umm, making tea for mastr Ryuuzaki, o-of course!" he stammered, blushing a bit. Misa giggled.

"Misa likes tea. Green tea! It's good for Misa's metabolism." Watari smiled so warmly at Misa... She thinks, blushing a bit. She shakes her head violently. Snap out of it, Misa! You love Raito, not this old bag!

Misa walked slowly over to Watari, hands clasped together in front of her. He's kind of handsome...And his eyes are so pretty...She found herself staring into them and seeing a handsome young man, the lively spirit of youth Watari always hid away inside. Suddenly, and felt bristles against her upper lip, soft, withered lips on hers. She slowly closed her eyes, envisioning the youth that was seen in his eyes and losing herself in the moment.

Age...is just a number...She thought, and the two, together, elder and junior, shared that realization.
