Chapter 2 - Letting it Blossom
Slowly his eyes opened and they immediately went to the bed-side clock. It was ten past ten in the morning. He looked back to the bed and noticed he was still holding hands with Light Yagami. He stayed still as he thought back to the night before when Light fulfilled him.
He was absorbed in his own happiness when Light opened his eyes and smiled at L.
"Morning." L said.
"Hey. How long have you been up?"
"A few minutes."
"And you've been staring at me all that time?"
"Pretty much." Light moved closer and kissed L tenderly on the lips before sliding out of bed and going to the bathroom, still naked.
L watched him leave the room before getting up and picking up his clothes, also still naked and following Light into the bathroom. He was in the shower. L walked purposefully to the shower, and stepped in. He washed his hair and body then he got the sponge and started to wash Light all over. Light held L's shoulders while L knelt to clean his legs and regions a bit higher up.
When they had both been cleansed, Light kissed L, placing his feet so that L backed into a wall of the shower. Once again Light inserted himself into L. Light thrusted harder, wanting to try harder for L. The sex was considerably shorter than last night, only lasting five minutes. Light drew away and got out, wrapping a towel around his waist. L followed and did the same. Light went into the bedroom and was dry and dressed after another five minutes, as was L. They walked the length of the sitting room and went to the monitoring room holding hands.
"Morning you two." Matsuda chimed, raising an eyebrow at L and Light as they held hands and entered the observation room full of monitors.
"Hi," L greeted back as Light nodded politely. "Light, I don't suppose you want to go somewhere tonight."
"Like…a date?" Light asked.
"Yeah. I thought we could catch a movie or go for a nice meal. My treat."
"Sure." Light smiled and allowed L to drag him over to the comfy armchairs placed in front of the monitors.
"Has anything changed?" L asked, sitting in his usual chair.
"No. She still refuses to talk until Light goes to see her." Matsuda admitted.
"Hmmm," L sat thinking for a while. "Light, Do you find it possible to go to Miss Amane's room and, how do you say…'wow her'?"
"L, I think I proved that I'm gay last night." Light replied as Matsuda covered his ears.
"True. But we need to know as much about Kira as we can. You and I both know that."
"I Know, but I really don't want to." Light's features drooped as he looked at L with big 'puppy-dog' eyes.
"I wouldn't ask if it wasn't vital." L replied with the same sad stare.
"Oh fine." Light said, cracking. He got up and strode out of the room appearing moments later in Misa's doorway, almost knocked over as she jumped into his arms and kissed every part of his neck that she could reach. Light casually let his arms fall so Misa had to get down. Instead accompanying Light into her room.
"You do realize we can't do anything. L is watching." Light said.
"I know, silly. Just seeing you is enough for me…now. Where did you go last night? I thought you were going to sleepover in my room."
"I completely forgot." Light replied in a mock-shocked voice. "Sorry." He added plainly.
"Well, want to have tea up here with me?" Misa asked eagerly.
"I can't. I've made plans to go out tonight."
"With who?" Misa demanded fiercely.
"My family." Light replied calmly.
"Fine, but you better come have tea with me tomorrow night."
"Wouldn't miss it for the world." Light quietly muttered. "Now that's out of the way, I wanted to ask you what you know about Kira."
"I've told you all I know." Misa smiled.
"Excuse me." Light had gone pale. "You said you had information."
"I do. But I've already told you it all." Misa started to un-button Light's Shirt. "But while you're here…"
"No thanks." Light turned away and walked to the door, presented a key and unlocked the door so he could slip out before Misa got near him. He returned to the monitor room. "I think a meal would be nice, L. Somewhere expensive. Call it compensation for that wasted journey to see Misa."
"Sure." L replied not taking his eyes off the monitors.
They went to dinner at the most expensive restaurant and as they sat eating their desired food, they got closer and closer to each other through light conversation. By the time Dessert came, it felt like they knew everything about each other.
As L tucked into two cakes and a strawberry cheesecake, Light decided upon something.
"I love you." He announced, making L almost choke on a mouthful of cheesecake
"I've loved you a long time."
L's eyes were wide and staring at Light. For once in his life, Light looked shy.
"Really?" L asked.
"Yes…really." Light replied.
"I-I Love you too." L replied holding Light's hands across the table. "I didn't think you liked me so I never said anything."
"Obviously, there are some things you don't know about, L. Love being one of them. But, you're no stranger to romance. It's only day two of our relationship and I feel I've fallen harder than I have for anyone else." Light admitted, colour appearing in his cheeks.
After dessert was eaten and the entire meal was paid for, the couple left, holding hands. When they got back to the giant skyscraper that they were staying in, they made their way to their bedroom for another night of passionate sex.
