Chapter two

DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING

AUTHOR'S NOTE: I SORRY

….….….….…...

Light screamed as they dragged him down the hall after forcefully shoving him into a straightjacket.

"Let go of me!" he demanded, trying to hide his rising fear as he was strapped down to a contraption similar to the one Misa had been confined to so long ago.

"Today," Dr. Lawrence said, grinning. "We're going to be doing shock therapy."

Light opened his eyes to fire a response back, but the doctor was quick to shove a gag in his mouth, almost down his throat.

"I'll give you one last chance," Dr. Lawrence said calmly as he walked over to the controls. "Confess to being Kira."

Light felt his body trembling with fear and he tried to fight against his restraints. He heard Dr. Lawrence flip on the machine and a second later, he was in agony, screaming until he tasted blood and his throat burned.

He knew he must have bit the inside of his cheek or his tongue but all he cared about was the goddamn agony running through his veins.

After a moment, the shocks stopped and Light hung limp in his restraints. He flinched when his chin was grabbed and face violently yanked upwards to stare at Dr. Lawrence.

The doctor sneered and yanked the slightly bloody gag out of Light's mouth.

"These are L's orders, Light," Dr. Lawrence said, going from sadistic to caring in less than a second. He sighed, expression softening as he cupped Light's cheek in his hand and ran his thumb over the boy's soft skin. "We'll stop if you confess. It's just three simple words, Light. All you have to say is I. Am. Kira."

….….….….…...

Light woke with a strangled scream, sheets tangled around his legs as he sat up with a loud gasp. He was gasping loudly for air as he looked around in horror, trying to recognize the black and blood red room he was in.

He closed his eyes tightly as familiarity came back to him and he fell backwards with a quiet sigh. He wasn't back with Dr. Lawrence. He was hidden away with some L look alike called BB.

Speak of the devil and he shall appear.

Light peeled his eyes open when he heard the bedroom door open and BB trudged in a moment later.

"I heard a scream," he said, though he didn't sound like he particularly cared. Still, there was something in his eyes that seemed soft whenever Light was around. "Are you alright?"

"Nightmare," Light answered shortly, sitting up and untangling the sheets from his sweat coated body before swinging his legs over the side of the bed.

He wore a soft pair of pajama pants and one of BB's black shirts which hung off Light's malnourished frame. Taking a shuddering breath, Light was about to get up before BB walked over and cupped Light's face in his hand.

The nineteen year old went stiff as his dream flashed back through his mind before he forced himself to relax.

"What are you doing?" he asked, trying not to panic or lean into BB's hand too much. The other hummed softly before running his thumb over Light's lips.

"It's early," he noted, taking a small step back. "You should go back to sleep."

"I'm going to take a shower," Light said quietly, sliding out of bed and walking on shaking legs to the bathroom. He could hear BB trailing behind him but he didn't particularly care anymore.

"Perhaps a bath instead," BB suggested quietly. His voice was so much like L's and yet so much smoother.

He had yet to tell Light exactly how he could help the boy achieve revenge on L.

"Why a bath?" Light mumbled as he grabbed a towel from under the sink. He stood up too quickly unfortunately and would have collapsed to the ground had BB not caught him.

"That's why," the man said in a soft, silken voice as he gently helped Light sit on the ground before walking over to fill the bath.

"I can do it myself," Light said quietly, massaging his throat when his vocal cords stung with a phantom pain.

"I know you can," BB agreed quietly. "But the least I can do is help. You're my partner. We both want L dead. It wouldn't help if one of us knocks himself out with a concussion, or drowns, would it?"

"I don't know if I want L dead," Light mumbled. "I was just...mad that he...that he sent me there."

"And he'll do that and more to thousands of others," BB explained, a little too calm for Light's liking. "But if he's dead, he's out of the way. Innocent people-"

"I'm not innocent," Light said firmly, struggling to his feet. "I killed people, BB."

"And so have I," BB said calmly. "But we're still innocent in certain regards, aren't we? We're still virgins."

Light looked away at this and so missed the dark and cunning smile that spread across BB's face.

"You're not a virgin," the man noted, taking a small step forward. "So you gave it to someone you love?"

"I was raped," Light said bluntly. "Now if you don't mind, I'd like to take a bath by myself, thank you."

BB looked at him for a few seconds, before giving a short nod. "Very well. Scream if you need anything."

"Scream if you need anything." Dr. Lawrence taunted as he pushed Light's head beneath the water.

Light shuddered and looked over at the tub as BB left the bathroom, closing the door behind himself with a soft click. Suddenly, Light didn't really want to take a bath anymore. At least not alone.

"So he was raped," BB mused as he paced the room. He knew what Light had been through in the past two years and knew what the boy would think of when he'd said 'scream if you need anything'.

"I just need to get him on my side and against Lawliet completely," BB muttered aloud. "After that...oh...oh, this is perfect. I won't use force, not yet. But now I have a card in my deck to use against Yagami if he tries to contact L."

Grinning darkly, BB took his place on the edge of the bed to wait for Light.

He waited.

And waited.

And knew something was wrong.

Frowning, BB walked over and didn't even bother to knock as he stepped into the bathroom.

Light was unconscious in the tub, his head below the water.

Sighing, BB made quick strides and schooled his features into one of panic and worry as he grabbed Light's shoulder and yanked the boy's head above the water, pleased when the boy's amber eyes flew open and he began to gasp loudly in panic.

"Relax," BB ordered softly, brushing Light's soaking hair out of the boy's wide panicked eyes as he helped Light out of the bathtub and into a soft towel. "What happened?"

"Flashback," Light mumbled, shuddering at the memory. "Sorry."

BB cocked his head to the side, continuing to play his part. "Sorry?"

"You were probably busy," Light said quietly. "And I almost drowned myself."

"Light," BB said firmly. "I wasn't doing anything but waiting for you. I had actually planned to come in and check on you. And I'm glad I did, otherwise, you'd be dead."

Light nodded before throwing himself at BB who went stiff at the embrace. Light knew it was stupid but he craved gentle physical contact and part of him missed L.

The part that still loved L.

That same part couldn't get passed the fact that BB and L were carbon copies of one another.

"Sorry," Light said quietly after a few minutes. He pulled away and BB just barely managed to relax and school his features into something that didn't show disgust.

"It's fine," BB said, smiling. "Come. Let's get you something to eat."

"I thought it was early," Light said as he got up and padded into the bedroom to grab a spare pair of clothes.

"It is, but I highly doubt you plan on sleeping any time soon," BB mused aloud, politely turning his back so that Light could dress quickly.

"Yeah," Light agreed as he pulled on a plain black t-shirt and a pair of jeans. "Yeah, you're not wrong there."

With his back to BB and BB's back to Light, Light didn't see the dark grin that spread across the older male's face.

….….….….…...

Hey guys! Hope that wasn't crap! Sorry if it was!

Anyway, PLEASE REVIEW AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK

THANKS!
