KIRA CASE: CONFIDENTIALS

Theme 12. Things only seen by starlight

By Just Akiko

They came together in darkness, total, complete; the occasional arm snaking through empty space to wrap itself tightly around flushed skin, accompanied by the scritch of bedcovers and a soft breathy moan,

"L, we shouldn't…"

"Raito-kun… please…"

…except for a glowing sliver across the nightstand. A flash of night sky in the crack between curtains, illuminating a shining china plate that holds a slice of the most exquisite chocolate cake; pristine, untouched… uneaten.

Such sights could only seen by starlight.

Note: I used the Raito spelling of Light's name here simply because it felt right in the context of it. Don't know why, I'm sure my muse has an excuse somewhere!

Thank you for reading! Any reviews/comments will be very much appreciated.
