Past
"Why do you always have to be like this L?" Light demanded as he was practically dragged into the bedroom by the black haired detective.
"Like what Light-kun." L asked as he walked further into the room.
"Don't play dumb Ryuuzaki! You know exactly what I'm talking about! Why do you always have to get everything your way? Why don't you ever take the time to think about others?" Light yelled, fed up with the way that the other man always acted.
L stopped on his way over to the bed that sat in the center of the room against the far wall, cocking his head to the side slightly as he seemed to think about this.
L stayed like this for quite sometime and after a few long moments of silence Light was sure that the black haired man was not going to answer the question, but suddenly he spoke up.
"I wasn't raised around a lot of people Light-kun." L started in a contemplative voice, as if he himself was trying to figure out the answer to the question as he spoke, "It was almost always just me and Wateri for as long as I can remember. Wateri always took care of me… I don't think he was really trying to spoil me or anything, but when I was younger if I wanted something he would always get it for me…" L went on uncharacteristically, "I don't know how to deal with people other then through work…" L trailed off at this and was silent for a few moments before he turned to look at Light over his shoulder with a small smirk on his lips, "Very claver Light-kun, trying to get me to talk about my past, but as Kira how exactly would this information be useful to you?"
During L's explanation and guessing on why he was the way he was Light had been relatively shocked that the older man was actually giving him a strait answer for once in his life and despite his better judgment through the detectives talking Light had actually felt himself starting to feel bed for the other man and for getting upset with him at all, but as L returned to his usual interrogation tactics Light became furious again.
"Gods are you ever going to drop that?" Light growled as he started his way towards the bed that he and L shared once again, "I'm not even going to humor you with a response anymore."
As Light angrily moved towards the bed it was now L who was the one being dragged by the chain that connect their wrists.
L laughed slightly at Light's reaction, not caring at all when the chain tugged at his wrist and he was forced closer to the bed, "You know, I think by avoiding the question all together there is actually a higher percent chance that you are Kira."
Light groaned, "I'm getting really sick of this Ryuuzaki." He said as he threw back the covers on the side of the bed that he usually slept on before climbing onto the bed and pulling the covers back over himself, he was laying with his back to L, "Can you just drop it for one night?"
L just stared at Light's back for a few moments in silence before climbing onto the bed in his usual strange fashion and settling down into his usual sitting position at the head of the bed, "Very well Light-kun." L finally said after a few long moments of silence, "But only for tonight."
Light would have let out a sigh of relief or made some other noise of appreciation had he not thought that there was a chance this would just bring about more hypothesis and percent raising, so instead he settled for smiling slightly and allowing his eyes to drift closed.
