"What was that top secret case about Light?" asked Matsuda, while at the same time receiving a glare from L. "Matsuda, it was top secret, that's why Ryuzakki didn't tell you anything about it." Light pointed out the obvious to Matsuda. "Well, I am part of the team! I should know." Retorted Matsuda. "Don't think yourself anymore important than the rest of the team Matsuda." L said, setting down his cream filled vanilla cake and turning to Matsuda on his computer chair. "So the others weren't told either?" asked Matsuda. "Its best not to think yourself special either." said L, his face giving no emotion away. Light walked over to L, relief spreading through him thanks to L interjection.

"Everyone can go home now." said L, looking at Light, joined to him by the handcuff. "I'm sorry Ryuzakki, but why are you and Light still wearing the handcuff. You trusted Light enough to send on a top secret case." remarked Soichiro, Light's father. "I had him under strict surveillance during the time he was away and I do not wish to trouble your family by having a guard in every single room, or surely you aren't suggesting that Light be put in prison again?" Lied L, his face still expressionless. "well, see you guys tomorrow then." said Soichiro, sighing heavily, wondering at what his wife and daughter were going to say.

L walked over to the couch and perched himself in his favourite seating position, still attacking his cake. Light went over and sat down next to L. "Say Ryuzakki, how about we go out tonight for dinner?" asked Light. "Are you asking me on a date?" asked L, amusement evident in his voice, he set down his cake. "Uhh n-no." stammered Light, L's gaze was making him uncomfortable. "Well no. I shall like to stay here tonight." said L, looking away. "Ok, it's a…… date." said Light, struggling to get the last word out. "Alright." murmured L, pressing the intercom button. "Watari, sorry to trouble you but Light and I are going out. If anyone comes say that I don't want anyone seeing me because I'm working on something. Also, could you prepare a taxi?" asked L. "What about we walk?" asked Light. L pressed the intercom button again. "Could you cancel the taxi Watari? Thankyou." said L, looking at Light.

They walked through a park, the street lamps lighting their way.

"What do you think the meaning of this date is Light?" asked L. "It doesn't seem anymore special than the other times I have been with you." "What is the meaning of us being together Light?" asked L. "I honestly have no idea." responded Light, looking up at the stars as they walked. "What do you think the meaning of life is?" continued L. "That's a pretty controversial question Ryuzakki." said Light. "I think everyone is put on this earth for a reason and that, no matter how pathetic a life is, it still has meaning." replied Light quietly. They had both stopped walking now and were looking into each others eyes. "That's one way to look at it." said L, resuming their walk. They reached the restaurant.

"What will it be? Asked the waiter. "I'll have a glass of water for starters and a chicken and avocado sushi roll." said Light. "I'll have a cup of coffee with six sugars and some vanilla ice-cream with a strawberry on the side." said L, grinning at Light's expression.

"So, what about you Ryuzakki? What do you think is the meaning of this date?" asked Light once the waiter had left. "Just a date Light." responded L. "What do you think is the meaning of Life?" "I think there is no meaning. No one has a special purpose and it is only chemicals in our brains that control what we say and do Light." said L. "What is the meaning of us being together Ryuzakki?" asked Light, his voice quiet. "I honestly don't know." said L, mimicking Light's earlier answer. Their food came and they started eating. Light noticed how L's face still remained expressionless when he received a strawberry but when Light was alone with him, his face would light up. He noticed how L, who had been known to ignore everyone around him when he had sweets now kept glancing at Light. He noticed how L would roll the blob of ice-cream around in his mouth before swallowing. He noticed that even though they were in public, L would still sit in his favourite position. "Shall we go then?" asked L when they had finished eating.

They walked back to the apartment in silence.

Light turned to L as soon as he had locked the door and caught him in a passionate kiss, cupping L's face in his hands. He noticed how L's tongue would move more slowly and deliberately when he was kissing Light than when he was eating sweets, so as to savour the taste more.

Light, still kissing L, walked them both toward the balcony outside. Once outside, L kissed Light more ferociously. Light stroked L's hair, relishing the softness of it. It started to rain, the drops were sliding down Light's neck raising Goosebumps but he didn't notice. He pulled L closer, as if to shield him from the rain.

They went on, ignoring the rain but savouring each other. Light moved his head to L's neck and he grazed his teeth on the soft skin on L's throat, his hand at the same time pulling on the chain between them, bringing L even closer, making him gasp. L broke away. "Please stay with me forever." asked L, grabbing Light's hand and laying it against his cheek. "don't worry, I will." whispered Light into L's ear hugging him close.
