So, it's been two months since I've updated last. I apologize. I've been surrounded with lots o' schoolwork.

Psst: Review please. I love me some reviews. :DD

Light had dragged an unwilling L out of the building and shoved him into the car. Light jumped into the driver's seat, slammed the keys into the ignition, and sped off.

In the car, L stared out the window, and proclaimed "Now this doesn't seem right...to let you control me so easily. You are probably bringing me somewhere where I will be uncomfortable."

Light just cooed, "Shhhhhhh."

They arrived at a shady-looking petite store, titled "Couples Paradise." L stared up at the flashing neon title from his window and sighed. Light opened the car door for L and put his arm around his thin waist, leading him to the store front.

"I think this will be good for the both of us. Well...mostly you. Actually…I guess I'm just here for support." Light grinned widely at L's inquisitive face. He opened the door.

L deduced this was not a couple's yoga class. L looked ashamed as he stood in front of the crowded room, and the blood plastered itself against the surface of his cheeks. All of the couples, who had previously been chatting with each other, turned their full attention to Light and L the moment they stepped in. Whispering ensued.

"No, no, no." L threw up his hands in defeat and turned to the door. Light grabbed his shirt, turning him around.

"Come on." Light sang.

"This is ridiculous…" L said as he retracted from the door and pulled off Light's strong hand.

"Oh, just try it. It can't hurt you…I guess." Light chuckled.

A mid-aged, lithely, Bohemian woman ran toward the two men.

"Oh-ho! Hello and welcome to Couples Paradise! I am Jackie...your humble instructor! You are just on time!" The woman said enthusiastically.

She handed them a mat. "Please, please, take a spot."

"You are...unbelievable." L whispered into Light's ear, with a hint of anger. He stared at the graphic posters on his way down, and bit his lip.

"I know." Light whispered back with a smirk on his face.

They set out their mat and took a position next to a young teen girl and an older man, who both looked gravely appalled at the sight of the two men together.

"You have a problem?" Light asked contemptuously, staring down the young couple.

"Hmpf." The girl just said in annoyance and turned to her boyfriend. Her boyfriend, who was far from a teenager and looked very old, ragged, and devilish, forcefully turned his girlfriend's eyesight to Jackie instead toward him. He eyed the two men and sneered.

"Okay class!" Jackie clapped to gain attention. "We are going to begin!" She brought over an assistant, and pointed to the floor. "Will the man please lay down on the floor with his back facing down?"

The men, including Light, did so.

"Who says you are the man?" L asked, lowering his voice because he was embarrassed to say it.

"You don't have a choice, babe." Light spoke proudly and winked.

"If the man can do a bridge, go for it! If not just place your hands on the floor behind your body and push up. Make sure the legs are far apart, boys!" She smiled as she watched the men struggle. "Oh come on, work for it!" She sang, walking around to aid those who could not do the pose.

Light did a bridge, and his back was arched perfectly. There was no struggle.

"Light is strong." L stated the obvious. The teen girl looked annoyed as she helped her boyfriend into position. She looked back at Light's artistic pose in envy. She was slightly disheartened at her partner's lack of skill.

"Okay. The woman, uh, or whoever will now take position in between her...or his partner's legs!" L sighed again, but took position. Jackie continued, "Then you will bend down and touch your toes, keeping your bum attached to your partner's crotch."

L turned back to look at Light's face, who was smirking again. He bent down and touched his toes easily. Some of the women tried hard, but could not do this so easily. Jackie supposed Light and L were the most limber of the group.

"Beautiful!" She exclaimed, looking at L. "Okay, moving on to the next position! Both of you should sit down!" She yelled. "The man should put his right leg on her left shoulder, and vice versa! This might be a stretch!"

All the couples followed her instructions, laughing as they bumped their heads and intertwined their legs.

L and Light were now face to face, each man's leg over the other's shoulder. They wrapped their arms around each other.

"You know...we're going to put all this to the test when we get back home." L watched Light's soft lips move tantalizingly as he said this. They were an inch from his own. Their sweaty foreheads were pushing each other with a strong force, and Light could hear and even feel L's heart beat fast as he must have been thinking of their return home.

"HAH! UNO!" Near cheered, as he held up his last card close to his face.

"Shitface." Mello spat.

"Mello, relax. You can't get so worked up over a simple card game...every single time." Matt consoled Mello.

"But...this is the fifth time he's gotten Uno!" Mello said angrily, looking at the twenty cards he had left.

Near's cellphone rang. "Hah. Excuse me fellas. I need to take this." He cleared his voice, and held the phone to his ear. He said professionally, "Hello Gevanni."

"Good Evening Near. I have gotten an update on the latest case."

"Yes?"

"There has been a strange murder of a student at To-Oh University."

"What are the details?"

"Said student was an exchange student from America. His head was chopped off his body, while he was sitting innocently at her cafeteria. Apparently this murderer has been on the run for awhile now, killing in the same manner. He is good at not being found. His murder victims have just been reported missing, but it's obvious that they are actually missing….their heads."

"This is not the time to make a joke, Gevanni." Near answered in a grim tone.

"Excuse me then." Gevanni said, lowering his voice in shame.

"Farewell. Oh, and thank you." Near hung up and ran into the living room.

Mello and Matt were laughing at some trivial matter, and Near got angry at the sight of this.

"Listen up. We have gotten our first big case! It is imperative to find a work space and try to solve this case before L does! It's most likely he hasn't gotten word of this case yet so we have time. We're moving out."

"Huh?" Mello asked.

"No questions, no time. I'll be out in the limo." Before Near ran outside he went to Mello's desk drawer, pulled out the notebook and put it under his shirt.

Mello grabbed all his important belongings, included Matt, and jumped into the limo. Then, they were off.

L wobbled out of the store and Light followed gracefully.

"Feeling a little sore there?" Light asked kindly.

"Indeed." L said, holding his back in pain. "I'm not exactly used to doing intricate sexual positions that require such flexibility…"

"I'm sure you aren't." Light said putting an arm around L's neck and leaning his head in. He began to suck on the crevice of his neck, biting and salivating all over his partner. L's eyes were lively with pleasure. "When we get home" He sucked harder. "…I'm going to have to see what you learned today."

The same couple that was next to Light and L stopped in their tracks when they saw this going on.

"Excuse me, but could you not do that in public? Have some manners, god." The girl said haughtily, looking at her boyfriend for approval.

Light discontinued his biting, and turned to the girl, ready to lecture what he wanted to lecture all two hours long.

"You have been ostracizing me all day, even without words. I think you need to learn to drop your ideals and start to accept things that cannot be changed. Do not concern yourself with our doings, okay?" Light said very angrily. "Come on." He turned to L, leading him to the car.

The boyfriend stepped in now, acting all high and mighty. He smoothed his hair back and scoffed.

"Hey faggot queen, don't speak to my girlfriend in such a tone. You don't have the fucking right!"

Light clenched his fists, and bit his lip. L looked at his face, which was contorted into rage.

"Light forget it, let's just go." L tried to soothe him.

"Get in the car, L."

"Bu-"

"Get in the car." He said firmly. L didn't move.

"Look at this, the queer is protecting his little boyfriend from me. Am I that scary?" His girlfriend chuckled behind him.

"Oookay. Listen, buddy." Light took a big step and was face to face with the man. The man did not flinch at Light's intimidating visage. "You shouldn't call people such names. I see you have some insecurities, and want to feel macho in front of your vapid girlfriend. I feel sorry for you that you need to prove yourself in such a callow manner. Now run along and leave us be." Light took a deep breathe and turned toward his car.

The man was dumbfounded by Light's sudden calmness. He was so dumbfounded that he did not know what to do. So, he grabbed Light by the shirt, spun him around, and held a knife to his neck.

"I'll fucking slice you, gay boy. And your asshole boyfriend too." The man said between clenched teeth. The girlfriend gasped and fainted right on cue.

"Leave him out of this." Light said, shaking. "You will not touch him." There was a pause, and the man pushed the knife harder into Light's neck. Light's eyes shut tightly.

L took this as his one opportunity. There was a pause, so he ran behind the burly man and round-kicked his neck. The man's head snapped violently to the side, he dropped Light, the knife, and his body to the floor. He screeched in pain and yelled out profanities and mumbled something like "Fucking got kicked by a fucking queer."

L rubbed his leg. "Let's go. Now." Light stumbled to move and ran with L to the car and were off in a split second.
