A/N: Ahem, I think it's very important that I let everyone know I AM FOREVER IN DEBT TO YOU FOR REVIEWING! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! YOU ARE ALL MY SUNSHINES, MY SWEETHEARTS, MY CAREBEARS!

.now that I'm done being extremely affectionate towards people I've never met….

Chapter 4, ladies and gents! (Mainly ladies, I believe) (Gents should totally read too, though)

Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note

Misa tapped her foot impatiently. "Well? What was that guy talking about?"

"Who knows?" I laughed nervously. "He probably mistook us for someone else," I shrugged. "Let's get some cotton candy," I tried to change the subject. Ryuzaki's face lit up at the sound of sweets.

I bought Misa and Ryuzaki both sticks of cotton candy. Ryuzaki stuck his tongue to it, letting the sugar dissolve on his tongue. He looked positively adorable. When they finished eating Misa spotted the shooting gallery and begged me to win her a stuffed animal. The three of us walked over and I paid for a turn. I got five shots to hit at least two moving targets, and I'd win a prize.

"Come on Light, win for me!!!" Misa giggled. I hit a target on my first try, but missed the next three. I shut one eye, aimed, and pulled the trigger, hitting the final target with a bang.

"Yay!" Misa screeched.

"Congratulations, which prize would you like?" the operator said with a bored expression.

"Uh, the bear, I guess," I said. The operator handed me the small stuffed bear and Misa took it before I could give it to her.

"Oh thank you so much!" Misa hugged the stuffed animal tightly. "You're the greatest!"

"Uh, yeah," I scratched my head awkwardly.

"Impressive. I bet you can't win the ring toss," Ryuzaki challenged.

"Oh yeah? How much do you wanna bet?" I squared my shoulders.

"If you win, you have to give me the prize," he bargained. "If you lose, you don't have to give me the prize."

"What? That makes no sense. If I win, my prize is giving you the prize?" I asked, confused.

"I understand if you can't do it," he looked away.

"Of course I can," I marched over to the ring toss and asked for ten rings. A huge container of empty glass soda bottles was set up, and all I had to do was get one small ring around the top of the bottle to win an enormous stuffed animal.

"Bring it on," I gritted my teeth and threw the first ring. I missed. I missed the second one too. And the third. And the fourth. And the fifth, and the sixth, and the seventh, and the eighth, and the ninth.

I only had one ring left. I whipped my sweaty palms off on my pants, sneaking a glimpse of Ryuzaki. He had a smug look, but I also caught the slightest glimmer of hope in his eyes.

I closed my eyes, crossed my fingers, and flung the final ring, praying I'd win. I kept my eyes closed even when the ring left my hand, scared it hadn't landed on a bottle.

"WINNER!" the operator bellowed. I opened my eyes, shocked.

"Huh?! No way!" I gasped when I saw the ring, barely clinging onto the edge of a bottle top.

"You won! Would you like a dolphin, a panda, or a husky?" he asked.

"I dunno. Ryuzaki?" I looked at him.

"WHAT?!" Misa interjected. "YOU'RE GIVING IT TO HIM?!" her jaw dropped.

"That was the bet," I nodded.
"A panda, I suppose," Ryuzaki scratched one leg with the other.

"Here ya go," the worker handed him the largest stuffed panda I'd ever seen. It was easily four feet tall, and he had to struggle to wrap his arms around it.

"I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!" Misa stomped her foot.

"Relax, Misa, I'm just following through on my bet," I said. Ryuzaki hugged the panda, smiling up at it. I crossed my arms arrogantly. "Told you I'd win."

"Yes, well, Kira does hate to lose," Ryuzaki mumbled.

"MY GOD! I'M NOT KIRA!" I groaned.

"Could we ride the Tilt-A-Whirl? I enjoy the spinning," Ryuzaki requested. Now Misa and I were both upset. She and I sulked on the way to the Tilt-A-Whirl. It didn't help that there was a line of people waiting to ride. We got behind two attractive college-age girls.

"Hi," one of them looked at me and smiled. "I'm Hideyo, and this is my friend Sugi," she introduced herself and the girl next to her.

"Oh, nice to meet you. I'm Li–" I stopped talking when I felt Ryuzaki's elbow hit my rib.

"Alias," he whispered.

"Matsuda," I said, using the first name that came to mind. "I'm Matsuda," I grinned nervously. Misa coughed loudly. "Oh, this is Misa, my, uh, girlfriend," I added.

"Girlfriend?" Hideyo confirmed.

"Yeah," I nodded. Misa snaked an arm around my waist. Ryuzaki rolled his eyes.

"I'm Hideki," he introduced himself, using one of his many aliases. He gave the girls a slightly perverted stare.

"Uh, hi," the girls looked away uncomfortably. Ryuzaki hunched over even further, now grouchy. Even though she knew I was taken by Misa, Hideyo kept giving me flirty looks. Eventually it was our turn to ride.

"Four to a car," the operator sighed, looking uninterested. Misa, Ryuzaki and I slipped into a car, and Hideyo rushed in behind us. Ryuzaki and I sat next to each other, leaving Misa and Hideyo across from us.

"Hey, don't you wanna sit with your friend or something?" Misa glared.

"Huh? No, I'm fine here," she winked at me. I cleared my throat and looked away. Ryuzaki continued to stare at her, and I almost laughed aloud when I noticed a spot of drool coming out of his mouth. I snorted and nudged him gently, to remind him where he was.

The ride started and we began twirling around and around at a sickening pace. Ryuzaki smiled and put his hands in the air, dragging my handcuffed hand along with him.

"Whee!" he cried like a child. I couldn't help but chuckle. The girls groaned, thoroughly embarrassed. When the ride ended Misa and Hideyo hurried to get out, but Ryuzaki wanted to ride again.

"You two go on ahead. It's past lunch time anyways, we should be heading home soon. Ryuzaki and I will just ride this one more time," I excused them.

"I don't wanna wait around!" Misa complained.

"I suppose you can take the car home. Light and I will find our way," Ryuzaki scratched his cheek with his index finger. Misa crossed her arms but complied. Hideyo blew me a kiss before catching up with her friend, who appeared pretty pissed.

This time Ryuzaki and I had the car to ourselves, and we both put our hands up, shrieking and laughing. When the car spun away from everyone watching, I leaned over to give Ryuzaki a quick kiss. He kissed back, even though he was clearly surprised.

When the ride ended for a second time we got off, heading for the exit. On the way there we passed some picnic tables set up outside with paper plates topped with pie set up on them.

"Pie eating contest in two minutes! Two minutes! Winner gets their choice of five free pies! We've got em all! Apple, blueberry, raspberry, strawberry, pumpkin, chocolate, cinnamon, everything!" an announcer boomed from the picnic tables.

"Hm, that sounds interesting," Ryuzaki licked his lips.

"Those contests are disgusting, Ryuzaki," I wrinkled my nose.

"Be that as it may, I want to try," he made his way over to the picnic table and paid the announcer for one slot. The other spots were quickly filled, and it was Ryuzaki against nine others. Seeing as we were handcuffed I had to sit next to him. The announcer took pity on me and gave me a free piece of pie.

"Alright, contestants, on the word 'eat' you are to consume your entire chunk of pie without using your hands! Fastest person to finish the pie is the winner! Okay! One…two…three…eat!" the announcer shouted.

Ryuzaki bent over the pie and practically inhaled it, chewing as fast as humanly possible. I started to laugh, and my chuckles quickly morphed into a full on belly laugh as Ryuzaki devoured the pie. By the time he finished my sides hurt from laughing so much.

"I'MFF DUSH!" Ryuzaki yelled with a full mouth when all the pie on his plate was gone. He was the clear winner. Pie covered his chin and cheeks, and some had even made its way into his hair. His enormous smile was enough to inspire anyone to giggle, and he chose his five pies after much thought. I led him into a corner under a tree, examining his pie coated face. Checking to make sure no one was watching, I brought his face close to mine and licked down his cheek, cleaning off the pie. I ran my tongue across his chin, scooping the pastry off. When I finished I gave him a gentle kiss, and his tongue slipped into my mouth as he tasted the pie.

"Mmm," he moaned. I made a mental reminder to eat more sweets to get more moans from a kiss.

"We should go, L. Misa will wonder where I am," I whispered.

"Hm. So you're going to call me L now?" Ryuzaki raised his non existent eyebrows.

"Does that bother you?" I asked.

"No," he said.

"Then, yes, I will," I smiled.

"Yes. Well, would you like me to call for another car?" L offered.

"Why don't we walk?" I shrugged.

"It's a far walk. I'll require at least…two more pies and three more sticks of cotton candy to make the trip. And you'll have to carry my shoes," L took his shoes off and handed them to me. I sighed and held them.

"Fine, I'll go get the food and meet you at the carnival entrance," I said, turning back in the direction of the cotton candy stand.

"Hey, it's you faggots again. Making out in public?" the same hefty man from before approached us. "You're disgusting," he sneered.

Suddenly L's foot was in the man's face. He stumbled and fell backwards from the strength of L's kick. When he stood up again I rocked my arm back and socked him in the face, causing him to fall over again. L and I high-fived and hurried out of the carnival before the man could catch up.

Yay, chapter 4 is finished! Yes, Light has made the fateful switch from Ryuzaki to L. Gimme your feedback! Tell me what you wanna see in the upcoming chapters (I love catering to my fellow DN fans).

I will not, however, "kill Misa", as I've received numerous requests to do.

LOL REVIEW, PLEASEEE!
