"What?" I asked. My speech was slurring. "Stop staring at me. It's creepy."
L didn't say a word. I tried to get up off the floor but my body didn't seem to respond. Was it the medication? Had I taken the wrong one? I had I taken too much in my rush?
I felt my body start to go lax. No. This was not good. Not good at all. I was now leaning against L and my head was on his shoulder. My eyelids were drooping and I was feeling extremely tired.
"Light. Now is not the time to sleep. You promised that we would go to the movies." L said softly in my ear.
"Mrg." I groaned. Is that all he thinks about? L let out a breath and let go of my slack hand. I felt him move and his arms wrap around me. He picked me up and carried me bridal style. I had no idea where he was going.
He sat down somewhere and I tried to force my eyes open. It didn't work very well. I was still "blind" at the moment. Even after he sat down he didn't let go of me.
"You said we would watch a movie. We are going to watch a movie." L said firmly. He let go of my legs and reached for something. I heard the click of buttons and I guessed he had the television remote. We were sitting on the couch. Took me long enough to figure that out.
He flipped through the channels until he found a movie. All I could hear was some little girl squealing and a bunch of animals making noises in the background. A pig oinked and the girl called him "Wilbur". What the fuck was he watching?! I wasn't sure if the movie was just starting or ending or somewhere in the middle.
Since I was "sleeping", I didn't have control over my actions. At least that's what I hoped L would think. I snuggled into his chest and my hand grasped his shirt. I felt him stiffen.
I hoped he wouldn't move. It was quite comfortable here. He was very warm and I enjoyed having his arm around my back holding me. It was probably be the closest I'll ever get to L.
To my astonishment L put his over arm around me as well, embracing me. L, what were you playing at? Was this part of your big plan? Were you trying to get me to confess to you that I am Kira?
I let these thoughts slide as soon as they entered my mind. I didn't want to be bothered by them right now.
I didn't know how long we sat there in front of the television. It could have been days, hours, minutes. I had no sense of time. L picked me up again bridal style and carried me into another room again. This time, the bedroom. He laid me on the bed and pulled the covers over me.
"It's a good thing your asleep Light. Or else you would have surely killed me by now for this." L said solemnly.
No I wouldn't. I wanted to scream at L but I was "asleep".
I felt him get into the bed beside me. L was full of surprises today. He pulled me to his chest, my face on his shirt. I inhaled. L smelt good. I can't believe I would say something like that, even to myself. I grasped his shirt with both hands kind of like I had in front on the television.
He didn't stiffen this time, he started petting my head and playing with my hair.
L, why do you tease me? You make it so hard to think about killing you. I know I will have to in the end, so why do you so this to me?
I really was tired so I let myself drift into a very comfortable sleep.
My dreams were plagued with L and today's events.
It was still dark out when I woke up. I was about to sit up when I noticed that L was still holding me. I smiled silently in the dark and cuddled back into his arms. It was warm and safe there. I felt better than I ever had. Misa held nothing on what I felt for L, but still…
L shifted and hugged me closer almost to the point of me being crushed.
"Light." I heard him whisper. I froze, not moving in the least. Was he awake? Would he be mad at me? What would his reaction be?
The chain jingled slightly but L remained asleep. I wonder what he's dreaming about. He had said my name. Could I possibly be in it? This thought made me happy. L might be dreaming about me.
"No. Stop. Don't kill…" L's voice was raspy and I could hear his breathing speed up.
What was he dreaming about? Was I about to kill him in his dream? Was he dreaming that I was Kira?
"L wake up." I said freeing myself from his grasp and sitting up to shake his shoulders.
"No. Let go." L said his eyes squeezed shut.
"L! Ryuzaki! Wake up!" I shook his shoulders harder.
"NO! LEAVE ME ALONE! NOOOOO!" L shouted and bolted right up almost making us hit foreheads.
"L?" I asked tensely.
"Light." He said relieved. He threw his arms around my neck and put his head on my shoulder and stayed there.
"Um… What are you doing?" I asked.
"Nothing. It's strange isn't it?" He replied completely normally in my ear. His breath tickled my neck.
"Wh..what is?" I asked stuttering.
"How I was holding you and how you were returning my affection." Hold on a minute. Was he saying what I was hearing?
"L. What are you getting at?" I still didn't push him away.
"Do you… feel anything for me Light?" L asked nervous. He pulled away and laid his hands on my shoulders and looked at me.
I didn't say a word I just let my head drop and I looked down, avoiding eye contact with him. I hated it. I didn't have any control over this situation at all. We sat there for a while before L finally let his arms drop off my shoulders.
"Sorry." He mumbled.
"L. I think I do." I told him turning my face away. He just had to ask.
L didn't move, he just looked at me in silence. The silence was painful. I wanted him to say something, no I needed him to say something. This was another one of the times I wished I wasn't chained to L. I wanted to walk away and smash my head into the bathroom wall, take a shower, go for a walk, anything to get away.
After a while L finally spoke.
"Well now. This is a real situation." L bit his thumb in thought.
"Damn you L. I practically tell you that I'm in love with you and that's all you say!"
"Well. I am trying to figure out what I think about this situation, considering you might be Kira and could be coming up with a plan to fins out my name and then kill me. You could be scheming something. I'm not quite sure what I do think. I've never felt "love" before. I wonder if this is what it is or if I'm just so shocked. Hmmm. I wonder. I am a genius you know." L was still L. Always thinking of the Kira case first. "I'm hungry. Let's go get something to eat." He stood up but I didn't follow. The chain was stretched as far as it could go.
"I'm not moving." I stated.
"But I'm hungry!" L whined. He only ever did when it involved food, sugary food that is. I guess it was my fault he whines a lot since we've been chained up. I don't enjoy the sugar as much as him and try and avoid it as much as possible. Chips are my preference.
"L. You haven't really said much other than the fact that I might be Kira. You asked me a question so I want to ask you one." I stared intensely at him.
"Alright but be quick. I'm very hungry Light-kun." The dreaded "kun" was back.
"What do you think of me?" I asked.
