Chapter Four: Forever
"Again! Again" Kitty cheered with a childishness that L had never seen in her. He sighed loudly, hoisting the smaller girl up higher on his back.
"I suppose...just once more," The detective tried to sound tired and achy, but Kitsune protested the minute she heard him speak.
"Two times!" She leaned her face in close to his ear.
"Kitsune, I'm--"
"Two."
"One,"
"Two!"
"Once, Kitsune,"
"Three." She wrapped her arms around his neck once more. L growled in frustration, a rare thing for him to do.
"Fine. Twice. But that is it for the night," He warned. Kitty smiled, nuzzling her ear into his back. She hummed a song as he walked around the lifeless city block, carrying her on his back. After a few minutes, he could feel her enthusiasm lower and her eyelids droop. The pair began to get closer to the entrance of the building. The detective slowed his pace, his arms still holding her tiny legs.
"Kitty..." He whispered, feeling her sudden arousal. She made a small noise before answering softly, "What?"
"Only once more?" He asked. She gave a drowsy smile and kept her ear to his back.
"Yeah...once," He grinned, heading for the doors, hoping that the feeling in his stomach would stay forever and so would Kitty.
