L gave the investigation team a break. A break. (Misa is going to a filming, meaning Matsuda doesn't get the day off.) Technically this means the three of us are on a break as well, but I refused to go anywhere where Raito was, so L and Raito were alone. Sighing, I was bored. Then a fun thought surfaced, and I decided to spy. This is what L gets for putting video cameras in every room. I think he deserves it.
So anyways, back to the monitors that now display the room the two are in. Five minutes into watching and I'm already bored. "Argh!" I hit my head against the metal table, the pain distracts me for about two minutes and then I'm bored again. How hard was it to get rid of boredom now a days!? Apparently very difficult.
I'm brought out of my musings by a sound from the monitors.
"The.. The hell was that Ryuuzaki!?" On the monitors L and Raito are in close proximity of each other, and the younger looks very bewildered.
"That was a kiss, Raito-kun." Wait- Wait- Wait- Time out. I need a good... Well a very long pause to work this out. Okay! Got it! No. Wait- Wait- Wait for it- Not here yet-
What. The. Fuck.
"Why!?" I want to know too, Raito.
"My friendship with Raito-kun seems to have escalated to... attraction. 'Love', if you must."
I really hate repeating myself but, just... what the fuck? That didn't make sense at all- well it did- if this was any other person, it would. But L? I was missing something here, wasn't I? No, I wasn't. If I thought about all the things L has done, and said over the past week; this was bound to happen. I didn't like that.
Looking back at the monitors they were kissing again; and they were both enjoying it. Well. Well. Well. I might as well do them a favor and when they are done edit todays security feeds... No, L would do that on his own. If L didn't... Well I wonder how this would go over with Yagami Soichiro? Not very well. I began to eat some strawberry jam to calm my nerves. Four slow handfuls later, I set the half empty jar on the table and look up at the monitors.
I regret it instantly. Things had gotten... 'heated'. I turn off the monitors immediately, I do not need to see this.
Ever.
There is one thing else I know; and it is very important fact. To me at least. That scene felt as if something was missing. No... As if it should have been something else.
But what? I closed my eyes and decided not to think until those two came down.
-
The two come down about an hour later; dear hell. I hate myself right now, but I look over and just stop. L's hair is even more disheveled than usual, and his shirt exposes a bony shoulder. His pants reveal a thin line of pale flesh- No. Not going there. Raito looks... well smug, and he's the one with the limp. Hmm... Not much of a shocker there, L's always been a bit of a pervert. (Anyone who's met L knows he's a bit of a pervert, this is common knowledge for them/us.) The Raito is wearing loose jeans, and a dark t-shirt. It looks like one of mine. A frown dances across my face.
I'm going to shoot myself later for this but, I wing it. "Did Ryuuzaki and Raito-kun have fun?" I sound mocking, and I know it. Also I'm damned pleased with myself for sounding mocking.
"You... heard?" Is Raito's awkward squeak.
I decide to be truthful. "Saw the first part. 'Attraction' Ryuuzaki? No, my friend, that is an understatement for what I began to witness. Don't worry I didn't watch past that, friend. What you both are feeling, friend, is something much worse that. So don't flatter yourself, friend, with such a small feeling."
L flinched each time I said 'friend'. Once more, I believe he deserves it. Raito is glaring at me now because I made his boyfriend (I earn myself a mental relapse at the idea of the two on a romantic date) feel uncomfortable. Please. I could do much worse, and L knows that. You don't treat someone who can kill anyone without batting an eye, passively.
"You have no right to say that, Rue!" Raito is angry with me. Well. I'll show the boy angry.
Removing myself from the chair, I walk over towards them, and focus a cold impassive look on Raito. I could have sworn the room got colder from my cruel intent. "Listen. Listen well, Raito. I do not like to teach lessons twice. I've known L longer than you would think; meaning I know him better than you. Just because you are in an intimate relationship, it does not mean you know everything about L. You may know more about him than the average person; but you still know little. Don't think you are higher than others because you know a tiny percent more. That tiny percent is irrelevant to the much larger percent you don't know. So, I think I do have the right to say what I feel the need to say, since, oh, I know more than half of what you don't know about L? And it was simply friendly advice."
I return to the laptop I was at and continue to work. The lesson was taught. To both of them.

L had an announcement. He had an announcement to make. I wonder what it was? Was it about his romantic endeavors with Raito? I hope so. It would be fun to see the other's faces. The perfect son was gay? Oh no! The world was going to end! Next thing you know a five year old is Kira! That's a bit sarcastic, but that's beside the point.
I'm not really paying attention to the first half of the announcement; it's just that Raito (it really was me who pointed out the stocks) found out that Kira was working for or with or in the Yotsuba group. Joy. Raito is just the one getting compliments from everybody at my expense. Wouldn't want to ruin his little world; no really. If I did anymore than I already had, L just might reveal my name and face as the real culprit behind the LA murders. That wouldn't be very good, would it? Not really.
I start to tune into the conversation once L mentions my false name. "...Rue helped point to the Yotsuba group, but did little past that. I thank him for..." I tune out once more; L was cruel, wasn't he? Not that I mind. If that's the game he wanted to play, let him. I listen to the next part, though, since something about successors is mentioned.
"I have decided to have my successors come to Japan to help on the Kira case, as the first actual case they get to be apart of."
That's interesting, name's please?
"Oh! Oh! What are their names?" Thank you, Matsuda.
"Near, Mello, and Matt."
a/n; This is the third chapter! :D Is it how you expected it would be? I hope not! But I hope it is as good as I hoped it to be. So, uh, yeah... L and Light... Not that I have anything against the pairing its just... The main good and main bad guy? Yeah. Much too common for my tastes, though it is a good pairing, its to common. So why not the neutral/somewhat bad guy and the good guy? Less common, no? Yeah. Anyways moving on.
I also am working on a Mello/Matt fic. :) It goes along with the DN storyline... just altered circumstances like this one. Joy! Joy! You may see the first chapter of that tomorrow. I think it is a bit different than normal M&M fics. So you may want to read it when I post it. Yep. Anyways it is going to be in Matt's POV. It may seem strange, but I get more inspiration from writing two or more fics at one time. I don't know why... Perhaps because I can swap ideas between the two? And I can always one idea that didn't work so well with one on the other? -shrugs-
This is kind of short, but I felt it good to end it there. It just fits, ya know? -shoots self for saying that- Anyways, I probably will be working on the M&M fic for the next few days instead, but at least I have four chapters up, no? Well the fifth will probably pop up anyways.
I got my hair cut on my birthday, and I just let the lady cut it how she thought it would look good cut. I like it, 'cause it looks like Matt's haircut. 'Cept for the bangs. I mean what the hell lady? Who has a small amount of bangs that are short and just get long? Really. WTH? So I plan to sometime fix my bangs after a shower or something, wish me luck. No really, I've never cut my own hair before. T.T
Ja ne! R & R please and thank you!
