I do not own Death Note.

Thoughts

"Speech"

L's POV

L was overjoyed in the fact that he now knew that Light returned his feelings, but unfortunately there were some less joyous matters to take care of at the moment as well. He took a deep breath to prepare to tell Light on how this situation was going to be handled. "Light," L began making Light's smile drop a little at the serious tone,"I have sent some associates of mine to pick up your mother and sister to keep them safe in the event that Soichiro does make it out of the building before we confront him. I have decided to arrest him myself, but seeing as he knows my face, he will not be taken to a normal jail. He will have to be kept in solitary confinement and in a special cell to keep him from ever telling anyone who I am." Light nodded in understanding though he looked a little nervous, as if sensing the question in the forefront of L's mind. "Will you be willing to come down with me to arrest him? I think it would be beneficial for you to see that he will not be able to hurt you again after today." L finished, analyzing Lights face for negative emotions.

"I..." Light stopped for a second, as if gathering his strength, "I would like to go with you. While I am not comfortable with being in the same room as him when I know that he will be very angry, I also think this could do me some good. To see him go away for ever..." Light looked at L, and while L could see nervousness and fear in Light's eyes, he could see hope and a tinge of happiness.

"I am glad that you are able to stand up to him," L stated, gripping Lights hand. "But know that Watari will be there as well to make sure that nothing goes too wrong. I have also contacted some of my guards to be on standby and to be ready to take him down and take him to his new 'home'." Light showed some relief at that, and a little curious.

"You have private guards?" Light asked him. L mentally face palmed, he should have known that Light would have picked up on that. He gave a little grimace before answering.

"I...do. Though I do not have them with me regularly, I called them in just for this specifically. They are hand picked people that I have chosen to reveal myself to." L responded explaining a little more than what Lights asked for, but Light was not complaining. Light gave him a small grin, showing that he noticed L hesitance, and therefore his nervousness to reveal this information.

"I am glad that you have trusted me with this information, Ryuzaki," Light commented leaned forward a little to wrap his arms around L. The detective gained a little blush on his cheeks (though he would deny that it) knowing that Light knew how he felt about revealing that.

"Unfortunately," L spoke, interrupting the moment between them,"I do believe that we need to make our way downstairs so that Soichiro does not get to upset so early on in the game." Light nodded and them both stood and made their way to the door to the room. L opened the door to find Watari waiting with two bullet proof vests in hand for L and Light to wear. Light realized that Soichiro was in fact armed all the time, and would likely try to put a bullet in someone, that someone most likely being Light. Both of them put on the vests under their shirts and made their way to the elevator with Watari. Light grabbed L's hand tightly, for support and strength through this. L held his hand just as tightly back, fearing that Light would get hurt (even if the percentage of that happening was low). The Elevator dinged upon reached the chosen floor, the ground floor.

They stepped out into the hallway that led to the main room. Down the hall, there were two guards on each side of the doorway that led to their destination. As they approached the doorway, Light could feel the hair on the back of his neck standing up and his heart started to they were close to the door, one of the guards stepped forward, holding out a handgun to L to take just in case it was needed. L took it and tucked it into the back of his pants so that Soichiro would not see it. They waited out there for a few minutes, waited for the message from Aiber and Wedy saying that they had successfully retrieved Sachiko and Sayu. After about 10 minutes of waiting, the message came saying that they had them secure and were ready for whatever would happen after this confrontation. Watari nodded at L and glanced at Light, he saw a slightly vacant expression on his face telling L that he was freaking out.L pulled Light close and rested his forehead against Lights.

"Focus on me," L said bringing Light back to the world of the living, "Whatever happens I will be right there by your side." Light gazed into L eyes checked to make sure that he was telling the truth, and he saw no lies in L's eyes. He took a deep breath and nodded sharply.

With their hands intertwined, they pushed the door to the room open. Soichiro's head shot up from where he had been resting it in his hands. Once his eyes laid on Light he stood up. He took a step forward, his arms raised a little bit as if he were preparing to give a hug, but then he froze. His eyes locked onto the connected hands of L and Light. His arms lowered to his side and his face began to go red.

"Light," he bit out, "Why are you holding hands with Ryuzaki? You don't have to do everything he says just because you are afraid of him raising the chances of you being Kira." L could see that Soichiro was angry but trying to hide it.

"I am not forcing Light to hold hands with me, Mr. Yagami." L stated coldly. "If you have a problem with homosexuals you should just say so, and not accuse me of something so heinous." At that Soichiro's face became even redder and his hands clenched at his sides.

"What is the meaning of this Light?" He demanded, turning to look at Light right in the eyes. "Is Ryuzaki telling me that you are fag?" Light flinched at Soichiro's slowly loudening voice, but responded anyway.

"I like guys, yes, though more specifically, I like Ryuzaki." Light slide a little closer to L when he stated that, and L nodded in agreement. L could feel Light's hands start to sweat, and rubbed his thumb soothingly over the back of Light's hand.

"I don't see the problem," L began, his face morphed into something more menacing, "seeing as you didn't have a problem with raping a man." Soichiro's eyes went wide in suprise, until his expression morphed into that of absolute fury. Matsuda and Mogi silently watched as this went on, but also made their way out of the room, seemingly being able to sense the seriousness of the situation.

"I would never do something li-" Soichiro began.

"But you did," L interrupted, "and I have a confession from the victim." Soichiro shifted his gaze back to Light, glowering.

"You," Soichiro paused for a moment before continuing, "conniving little bitch! I have done so much for you, and what do I get!? A little lying whore of a son! You stupid piece of-"

"That is enough, Mr. Yagami." L growled out. "You are under arrest for sexual assault of a minor." At that moment, the guards that had been in outside the door, entered. Soichiro appeared to panic for a second, before whipping out his gun and pointing it at Light.

Everyone in the room froze.

"I am not going anywhere! I haven't done anything wrong! I will not let some fags win!" The guards that had pulled out their own guns, inched forward, ready to take him down.

"I am afraid you don't have a choice," L said, eyes narrowing at Soichiro. His other hand slide behind his back, gripping the handgun lightly. Soichiro had a wild look in his eye as he grinned at L.

"Maybe not," He said, "But that doesn't mean you still win."

BANG!
