'Hmm, what would L want to have?'
Light was currently in the grocery store. He was carrying a basket in his right hand and looked at the various choices. He was in the snack aisle.
'I'm definitely not picking chocolate this time'
Light picked up a colorful bag of gummies, and looked at the nutrition facts.
'25 grams of sugar?! Are these companies smoking crack?!'
He put the bag back. And walked out of the aisle.
'Why is this so hard? I had no problem picking out something yesterday…'
"Hehe, hey Light! Liiighht. Light-kun. Oh kiiirrra. Aye I'm talkin ta ya." Said a playful sinister voice
"Shut up Ryuk. What do you want?" Light asked under his breath
"You should get your lover some apples." Ryuk said
"Apples. Ryuk, seriously? And he's not..my lover…" Light paused
"I beg to differ after last night. Tell me Light, are you into men?" Ryuk asked smiling
"Last night was his doing, and Ryuk, if anything, I'm probably bisexual. So apples huh? Yea, fruit…that gives me an idea." Light walked down another aisle
"Light. The fruits over here! What are you getting?" Ryuk asked
Light opened one of the freezer doors and pulled out a box. He looked at the nutrition facts, smiled in approval, then put it in the basket.
"You sure L would like that sort of thing?"
"Hey it's healthy and as far as L is concerned, I'm sure the sweetness fits his standards"
"Blah Blah Blah, buy me some apples please Light? You haven't bought me any since 2 days ago. My symptoms will start in a matter of hours!" Ryuk said starting to panic
"So..Red Delicious, right?" Light asked walking over to the produce section
Ryuk rapidly nodded his head
Meanwhile at Task Force Headquarters…….
L was laying on his bed. He had the extra chocolate bar in his hand and was taking small nibbles. He was thankful that Light brought him this, it was so hard adjusting to his new diet. He savored the sweet, then wrapped it back up in the aluminum foil for later.
'It doesn't quite taste the same..'
He thought back to last night. Was it really necessary to do what he did? L closed his eyes. At the time, he felt desperate. He was pretty hungry and he was losing it. Why did Light's chocolate taste different than this one?..okay that was a stupid question. It HAD to have tasted different, uh mean, it was in his mouth!
L shivered.
Exchanging body liquids was beyond him. He rubbed his bottom lip. Although, it wasn't unpleasant. It was…kinda nice. The intercom came on.
"Ryuzaki, will you please come down for dinner? You barely ate breakfast or lunch today" Watari said
"Erm.."
"It doesn't seem that bad"
"Well…"
"Light cooked it."
"I'll be down in 5 minutes" L said quickly leaving his room
L walked in the office. Aizawa, Mogi, Matsuda, and Soichiro greeted him
"Good evening Ryuzaki"
He smiled.
"Evening, did everyone eat already?" L sat down at the coffee table
"Well maybe around half an hour ago" Soichiro said
"I see…"
Light yawned and walked into the room. He placed a bowl on the coffee table before Ryuzaki then sat down in the office chair in front of the computer.
"Hope you like it Ryuzaki. I took it upon myself to cook that" Light muttered
"Manners Light!" Matsuda
"I'm just saying. I eat healthy, yet I wouldn't willingly eat what you were going to cook for him. The point of his diet is to reduce his sugar intake, not to go all out and have Ryuzaki lose weight. He has a fast metabolism to begin with"
Suddenly they heard a fork pick up. The room fell silent and all eyes moved to L. He was looking at the meal curiously. Just pasta, it was spiraled. Carrots, snow peas, and broccoli were in the mix. The meal was drizzled in mild garlic sauce. He clearly avoided the broccoli and brought a piece of pasta to his mouth. His eyes widened.
"Its..actually pretty good" L muttered
"WHAT?!" Matsuda ran over to Ryuzaki. He grabbed the bowl and took a large bite.
"Light, you putted butter in this didn't you?" Matsuda asked swallowing
"LIGHT! DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY CALORIES BUTTER HAS?!" Aizawa exclaimed
Light thought for a moment
"Maybe around 268 for a meal like that, and about 48% fat for the average 2,000 calorie diet." He said calmly
"ARE YOU CRAZY LIGHT?!" Soichiro asked
"But I didn't use butter…"
"Sure tastes like butter" Matsuda said eating
"Can I have that back?..." L asked
"It's 'I can't believe it's not butter'" Light said
"What do you mean, you can't believe? You're the one who cooked it"
"It's 'I can't believe it's not butter'" Light repeated
"I heard you the first time. What do you mean?"
"Matsuda." L said
"Huh? Oh, uhh sorry. Here" Matsuda said setting the bowl on L's lap "Light, this tastes very much like butter, how can you not believe it's not butter?"
"Because it isn't" Light said starting to get irritated
"I still don't get it."
"The BRAND" Mogi said
"Huh?"
" 'I can't believe it's not butter' is a brand. Butter substitute. You know, American stuff." Aizawa explained
"Oh..haha.." Matsuda laughed nervously "Sorry…"
L was looking at the bowl in front on his lap. Nothing was left. His dark eyes just stared at it. Everyone fell silent and looked at him unable to read the emotion on his face. Light got up, smacked Matsuda upside the head and took the bowl from L's lap. He rubbed L's hair.
"I'll make you some more ok?" Light said softly. Ryuzaki nodded. Light walked towards the kitchen.
"Oww…that…REALLY HURT LIGHT!" Matsuda yelled
"You deserved it" Everyone said
11:00pm
Light sighed. Here he was in the elevator again. He leaned against the wall. The elevator music was really corny. He looked down at himself. He was wearing a short sleeved gray shirt and black baggy sweat pants. Light shivered. L's "treat" was freezing his leg. He was so sure these sweat pants were thicker. He looked at the screen above the elevator doors. 2 more floors. The elevator chimed as he stepped out. He headed towards Ryuzaki's bedroom. Immediately, he was greeted by L in bed.
"Hey Light!"
"Hey." Light reached into his pocket and threw a popsicle at L.
He immediately opened it and started licking. Light got out another popsicle and opened it as well.
"You brought one too?" L asked
"Well, I figured if I'm wasting money on snacks for you then I should have some myself, " Light said "By the way, what did I trip on last night?"
L motioned to the giant stuffed animal on his bed.
"His name is Badtz-Maru. My..friend in England really likes toys and stuff, so he got this for me"
"Never knew you were into the Sanrio characters Ryuzaki," Light laughed "But it's kinda cute"
"I'm not cute" L muttered embarrassed
Light sat down at the edge of L's bed. He had his popsicle in his mouth and was moving the stick slightly so nothing would drip. L looked at him curiously and tried to copy what Light was doing. Light looked over at L and lowered his popsicle towards his lap.
"Uhh..something wrong?" Light asked
"No. Just seems like you're really enjoying that. Is there a certain technique you have for eating popsicles?"
"Err no. A popsicles a popsicle. You eat it however you like. I wouldn't say there's a technique to eat it."
"Hmm.." L licked his popsicle.
Light's eyes were glued on his lips. Was it him or was Ryuzaki's way of eating very..suggestive? L looked over at Light and smirked.
"Getting aroused Yagami-kun?" he asked
"No..no, it's just..you eat strangely. I wondered why" Light said avoiding eye contact
"I know you like the back of my claw Light. And THAT was a LIE! Hehe how's "Light junior" doing? Is he starting to stand?" Ryuk said laughing
Light scratched behind his neck. It was his code to Ryuk saying: Shut the f%&# up!
"I eat this way because I was never taught proper manners. I never go out so I didn't see the need to. Does it bother you?" L asked
" Naw..I've gotten used to it." Light said smiling.
L blinked at him a couple times. Then his eyes wavered down towards Light's lap. Light felt his heart beating faster and faster. He gulped.
"Uhh..Ryuzaki?" Light asked nervously
L bent his head down and leaned forward. Light pleaded that L couldn't hear his heart thumping. L pulled Light's hand closer to him. He slowly brought his tongue out and licked around the base where the popsicle met the stick. He ran his tongue up and down its length then withdrew. Light felt himself starting to harden. L's tongue seemed so..skilled.
"It was melting. You should pay more attention" L said
"Ah sorry, I was zoning out," Light looked at his popsicle "Great now it's got your germs on it"
"Can I have it?" L asked throwing away his popsicle stick. Light sighed
"Yea. Sure. Here." He said handing it to him. L happily took it and started sucking on the half eaten frozen treat.
"Oh don't look so sad Light"
"Oh? Are you gonna make up for it?" Light asked looking over at L
"How do you want me to atone?" L asked
Light thought for a moment. L sighed as he finished his popsicle. He walked over towards Light and rested his chin on Light's lap.
"I noticed how you were staring. Were you possibly fantasizing about something?" L asked
"No..of..course not" Light muttered
"That's a LIE!" Ryuk shouted
Light scratched behind his neck.
"Are you positive Light?" L asked "I'm pretty willing to-"
Light cut him off.
"No, it's fine. I can always get more." Light smiled and he got up to leave. "I'll come back tomorrow around the same time," Light came to the doorway and he turned back to look at L "And here's my revenge…"
"And what is it?" Ryuzaki asked
"Those popsicles..were sugar-free" Light made sure to make emphasis on 'sugar-free'. L's emotion came in shock. Light smiled and closed the bedroom door behind him.
"So Light, I take it your right hand will be very busy tonight?" Ryuk asked while they were in the elevator
"Yea" Light muttered
Ryuk snickered "Shall I sneak you some lotion or something?"
Light nodded his head.
"You remember where my room is right?"
"Uh huh," Ryuk flew through the wall "TO THE 19th FLOOR!" (reference to chapter 1)
