Star-Crossed Lovers
"Doubt that the sun doth move, doubt truth to be a liar, but never doubt I love".
-William Shakespeare. Hamlet.
Well passed noon when Light awoke it was to the cool wisps of a breeze that filtrated his nostrils with the intoxicating scent of something sweet. He forced open his eyes to find the source of the pleasant aroma; however, his sight was immediately captured by a sleeping face that lingered a breadth away from his own. Light was momentarily shocked to discover another person had been so close during his sleep and he worried that in his drunken stupor he had bedded a complete stranger.
However, as he registered the unruly black mane and the delicate, alabaster skin, he was relieved to find it was simply Ryuga. The raven was crouched beside him with his chin resting on the cushion of the couch Light had been sleeping on. Those dark, hollow eyes were closed for once, which led the brunette to believe he was sleeping. Meanwhile, Ryuga's breath was slipping softly from his plush lips and flooding Light's senses.
So that's what that sweet smell was…
He quite liked the scent, which was just as lovely as the creature it came from.
" Ryuuzaki…" he whispered quietly as if to confirm it to himself.
Light remained motionless, transfixed at the incredible vision before him. He had always thought the younger male's unique appearance was refreshingly attractive. Yet, now, with such a menial distance between them, Light clearly observed that the other's aesthetics were far more breathtakingly stunning than he had ever realized. So much so, that Light did, in fact, momentarily forget to breathe.
Suddenly, the slumbering form before him stirred awake. Owlish eyes blinked open and pink buds parted to release a silent yawn. Light watched mesmerized by the ethereal sight of the other. There was his Ryuuzaki, awaking at his side, like all those years ago. How he had missed waking up to find the other close.
" Ryu, am I dreaming?" Light questioned.
The college student sleepily shook his dark mane in response.
Light couldn't help the possessive streak that arose in him. The youth was just too alluring. He had to make the impressionable, young man his again. Certainly, that wasn't an impossibility. If only he could cross the gap between them.
Light reached out to cup the youth's pale cheek. H held the raven's face securely in his grasp as he erased the niggling space between them. Light's skin pressed firmly against the others smooth flesh as lips claimed lips in a kiss demanding reciprocation. At first, the youth attempted to break the kiss, but when Light's fingers clamped against the back of his head preventing him from pulling away, Ryuga relented and yielded himself to Light's voracious mouth. His tongue began to plunder the, now, unguarded sanctuary, the sleek movements of his moist muscle tempting the raven to surrender completely.
It was Ryuga's own delicious taste that thrilled Light as his tongue encouraged the other's to join his in a languid dance. The raven lazily responded by rolling his tongue around Light's and slipping it into the older man's mouth. Light permitted the younger male's lazy domination of the kiss, while his fingers gently grazed the column of Ryuga's neck in a stimulating caress. Chills ran down the ravens notched spine and a keening sound escaped the pale youth, asserting his pleasure to Light's receptive ears.
The noise excited the brunette even further as he severed the kiss and began to nip insistently at the crook of the youth's ivory neck. An eruption of delightful mewls poured from Ryuga's trembling pink buds and Light laved the pallid flesh with hot, wet kisses to coax more wordless praise from the raven. The dark-haired man groaned and huskily whispered Light's name. There was something almost pleading in the younger man's tone. However, Light wouldn't be satisfied till the wild, haired youth begged him shamelessly.
Light jerked the raven up onto the couch and slipped his hand beneath the youth's shirt, where his fingers danced across a warm, toned belly. Cold air hit the pale man's abdomen as Light tugged the shirt off him entirely and roving digits showered him in tingling sensations . The intensity of it all was nearly too much for the owl-eyed boy, who had began to pant quite discernibly.
The noise, didn't do much for Light's restraints. His primal instincts were screeching for him to just take the youth so fast and so hard that he wouldn't know what hit him. Yet, Light was certain the male beneath him was his very own Ryuuzaki. Thus, he wanted to make this experience memorable, since it had been years since the two of them had united in coital bliss. He was also trying to be considerate and not fuck the intelligent youth senseless, but his expectations for this union were plummeting fast. He was going crazy just kissing and touching his most desired partner.
Ryuga, watched in astonishment as a perplexing degree of emotion shifted in the other's eyes. He couldn't help but feel his heart strings being played by the sincerity he saw beneath the hunger in the other's appreciative gaze that skimmed the length of his trim, half-clothed figure. The younger man shifted uncomfortably due to other's immodest examination of his physique.
Light's attention tore away from the delectable sight of Ryuga's unblemished and slightly-muscular torso to meet the younger man's half-lidded gaze. Ryuga was titillated by the visible lust that consumed those golden irises.
A devious smirk beset the older man's lips as he lowered his head to Ryuga's chest to gather a pert, wine-colored nipple in the burning chasm beyond his lips. The pale youth cried out as liquid heat swirled around his pink nub. The same fiery attention was soon delivered to the other. Then, Light lifted himself to place a chaste kiss upon the raven's quivering lips. Yet, before the dark-haired man could enjoy any further adoration, Light pulled away from him and sat back on his heels. Light's eyes regarded him searchingly, and the raven knew not what answer he was being scrutinized for. Nevertheless, the younger man refused to look away from the other's alluring gaze. After a trying moment of probing inspection, Light finally spoke.
" Are you hungry?" he asked.
The wan male eyed Lightly uncertainly. Had he heard the brunette correctly. Did Light really inquire if he was hungry? Truly, that was an odd question to ask after such passionate actions. Did Light think the way into his pants was through his stomach? Wasn't the old cliché , " The way to a man's heart is through his stomach."
If Light wanted into his pants then he was going about the matter entirely wrong.
" Yes, Light-kun, pancakes would be nice." the raven responded while revealing one of the most painstakingly obvious fake smiles the brunette had ever seen.
Light felt a wistful memory blot across his imagination as he reminisced about an occasion long ago when his Ryuuzaki had asked him for pancakes. His lovely Ryu had gotten older, but he certainly hadn't changed.
Ryuga noticed the dazed look in the other's eyes, and feared for a second that Light would deny him his cherished pancakes. In desperation the raven loomed overly close to Light's face and peered into the elder's eyes. Light quickly snapped out of his reverie and blinked several times, taken aback by the sudden proximity of the youth.
" Ryu?" he asked.
" Light-kun will make my pancakes now, yes?" the raven inquired as he brought his thumb to his mouth and began to nibble on it.
Even though, Light didn't appreciate the unnecessary honorific, he nodded and headed for the kitchen, leaving the dark haired man to enjoy his thumb sucking alone.
Once Light was gone, Ryuga sported his usual crouch and persisted in gnawing on his thumb. His dark eyes flickered about the room in a lazy attempt to locate his missing top. However, his generic white sweater was nowhere to be seen. Thus, he felt a small disappointment, at his double loss of warmth. For now, he neither had his shirt nor Light to shelter him from the irritating chill of the air conditioned apartment. He stifled his anxiety by focusing on the curling and uncurling of his toes around the edge of Light's couch.
Quite sometime later, when the raven's boredom met an almost unbearable peak. Light re-entered the room with a silver plate of Ryuga's favorite and most coveted meal. The brunette handed him a plastic container of syrup and some silverware, and he took a seat beside the pasty man with the pancakes situated on his lap. The hungry Ryuga carelessly dove his fork into the scrumptious pile of cooked dough circles supported by Light's lap.
Light was at first shocked, then slightly repulsed by the other's aggressive nature toward food. However, Light couldn't help but be amused by the suggestiveness of the situation. Therefore, he decided he wouldn't rebuke the wild, haired youth as long as he didn't stab his crotch with his eating utensil.
Light, due to his curious musings hadn't noticed that the raven had ceased his voracious consumption of the slathered treats to eye the apparent bulge that had formed inappropriately close to his food supply. A wicked smirk suddenly graced the pale man's lips.
Ryuga carefully pushed aside the tray of pancakes and squirted nearly all of the syrup across the front of the brunette's brown corduroy pants.
"Oh, Light-kun, oops I'm so sorry." Ryuga cried out as he animatedly drew his hand over his mouth in what was supposed to be a shocked expression. His dark-eyes lowered to ogle older man's saturated pants.
Light looked down and to his own mortification discovered that his expensive, tailored corduroys had been coated in syrup.
" Damn! Ryuga, what did you do?" Light shrieked loudly as he jumped up from the couch and pointed in disbelief at his ruined pants.
Ryuga rose from his squatting position on the couch and kneeled down in front of Light to assess the damage he had done to the older man's trousers. A brief moment of scrutiny over the elder's crotch revealed that Light's arousal had vanished entirely. The raven felt dejected, but the brunette didn't understand the disappointed sigh that escaped the wan male. He simply knew the other had thoughtlessly destroyed his favorite pants. Suddenly, Ryuga's dark obsidians looked pleadingly up at him, but Light's anger was unshaken by the pitiable expression.
" Light-kun, I will assist in cleaning them." the raven stated as he began licking at the sticky substance coating Light's jeans.
" Ryu, …this won't logically…work." Light remarked with great difficulty spent in gathering his words.
The raven ignored the weak protest and continued lapping at the sweet fluid clinging to the clothing that adorned Light's thighs. His tongue swirled circles atop the unsmooth surface of the fabric, which didn't do much to block the moist caresses from Light's skin. The pasty man didn't waste much time finishing his 'cleansing' of both legs so his oral ministrations could be delivered to a much more personal area.
Light let out a groan as the raven's tongue slowly moved over his clothed erection.
Light entangled his fingers in the youth's feathery black mane and pushed Ryuga's face into the renewed bulge at the crotch of his pants. Ryuga smirked inwardly at Light's urgency and began to suck the brunette's arousal through the material of his pants, making sure to make loud smacking noises with his lips in the process.
Perhaps, the way into a man's pants is through the assistance of food products.
Light had began thrusting his covered need into Ryuga's face, who in response grabbed the brunette's hips and burrowed his mouth more securely around the tent in the man's jeans. The incessant suckling noises had reached an all time high and was succeeding in driving Light star-raving mad. He desperately needed release and although the youth's assistance was enthralling, it wasn't enough.
Light began unbuttoning his pants and succeeded in unfastening them; however, his attempt at masturbation was swatted away by the raven. Ryuga, yanked down Light's corduroys, leaving the elder in a pair of blue striped underwear. The youth withdrew Light's penis from the slot of his boxers and his onyx orbs silently appraised Light's massive size.
Ryuga curiously looked up into the brunette's half-lidded amber eyes as he licked along the side of his arousal till his mouth drew near to the swollen head. Without further hesitation, the raven took the tip of Light's penis into his mouth
" Aah! Ryu!" Light cried out as the most sensitive part of his body was encased in wet, sweltering heat.
Ryuga's slick tongue swirled around the receptive head as he swallowed most of Light's length before his gag reflex was irritated. He ignored the urge to cough and sputter and started to bob his head back and forth, imitating the motions of actual sex so he could accommodate Light's entire length into his throat. Light's hips jolted forward as he bucked mindlessly into the kneeling youth's orifice. He continued to suckle Light's erection as his mouth was penetrated by his wildly thrusting lover.
The sucking sounds of Ryuga's mouth in action created a beautiful harmony with the sound of Light's heady pants and moans. It amazed the dark-haired man how vocal Light was in confirming his pleasure, which he seemed to be experiencing a lot of. Therefore, the raven couldn't understand it, when the older man tugged at his smoky tendrils and pulled him away. It wasn't until, Light lifted him off his feet and carried him bridal style into the bedroom, that the pale man understood the other's intentions.
He was tossed onto the bed and while Light removed his blue striped boxers, he likewise divested his pants and his own plain white boxers. Now, both men were completely unencumbered by their attire and Light clambered eagerly onto the bed and leaned over the pallid form of the nude raven.
An unreadable emotion flashed in the elder's eyes as he leaned his face forward so that his lips were achingly close. Ryuga deeply yearned to close the distance between them and steal the kiss he so desperately craved.
Slowly Light's hand lowered onto Ryuga's bent knee. The brunette's deft fingers traced upward along the inside of the youth's creamy, firm thigh as it drew torturously near the raven's aching manhood. The soft caress of Light's fingers across his perineum caused him to thrash his to and fro. Just as Light wrapped his hand around the youth's pulsing member, his pit-like orbs alighted on a disturbing sight.
There on Light's nightstand was a red-framed picture of Misa's beaming face. The image of Light's girlfriend, suddenly made the raven much more feel much more reluctant. He pushed Light off of him and sat up on the bed, his owlish eyes starring daggers at the photograph.
He felt the brunette rest his chin on his thin, bony shoulder and a pair of strong arms wrap around his waist as Light huddled close behind him.
(1)" Koiboto?! What is it?" Light asked in a husky tone that was trying to undermine his anxiousness.
As Light's gaze peered curiously over the gangly man's shoulder his sight flickered onto the picture Misa had given him of herself. He, immediately registered the photo as the problem, reached over the slim male, and pushed the picture face down onto his nightstand.
" Light-kun?"
" Hmm?"
" Have you slept with Misa-Misa in this same bed."
The raven's tone was dry and undetached, but Light knew it was a ruse.
" I…" Light began, but he was cut off by the other.
" I can't be with you in the same bed in which you have also fornicated with Misa." Ryuga replied, and this time his bitterness lingered unhidden amidst his words.
" Ryu, please, she means nothing to me if I can have you." Light replied reassuringly.
" Light…"
The mentioned man placed a finger against the younger male's lips.
" Shhh!! Ryu, nothing else matters but you and me." he whispered as he tucked back Ryuga's raven mane and delivered a tepid kiss against his ear. "your body and mine."
Light's tongue darted out from between his smooth, velvet lips and traced along the outer shell to slip inside. The pasty youth shivered with pleasure. He truly yearned for Light, but he wanted him only for himself.
" Light, please, don't make this harder for me." Ryuga pleaded.
Light grabbed the raven's hand and pulled it behind his back so that the wan palm rested against his heated arousal as he mumbled breathlessly into raven's ear.
" But, Ryu, you've made it so hard for me."
" Oh, Light." he groaned as his fingers trembled a caress across the older male's most intimate anatomy.
" Yes, Ryu." The brunette hissed as he groped between the raven's legs and jerked playfully at his pinkened length. " There's nothing in the world I want more than you. I'm going mad with desire. Can't you feel how much I want you, Ryu? How desperately I need you?" Light moaned into the younger man's blushing ear as he thrust his cock into the eager hand that stroked him.
" Yes, Light, yes." he whimpered as he continued to grasp frantically at the throbbing member. " Oh, Light, take me! I want you inside of me!"
Light bit back the grin that nearly surfaced as he stroked the man mewling merely because of his touch.
" Can I really have you?" Light murmured as he quickened his pace on the man's needy shaft.
A gasp poured from Ryuga's throat as he nodded and threw his head back to be supported by Light's shoulder. His expression contorted with pleasure and his mouth wide open in a silent moan.
Light knew then he had to hurry. His partner was far too close to the brink.
He lifted his spare hand to the raven's parted pink buds and waited for the youth to take the three proffered digits into his mouth. Ryuga kissed each fingertip individually before sucking them into his mouth and swirling his tongue across them in a suggestive manner. Light felt his length throb at the remembrance of what that tongue had done to it previously.
Once his fingers were sufficiently lubricated with saliva, he removed them from Ryuga's mouth. The raven realizing he would need to lift his bottom of the bed to give Light the access he needed, did so by raising onto his heels and leaning further against the older man so that Light was now supporting all of his weight.
Light reached in-between his body and Ryuga's and a digit was immediately inserted into the dark-haired man's entrance where it commenced wriggling about. The foreign object irritated the raven, but he didn't notice it too much over the pleasure that was mounting in his stomach due to Light's continued strokes along his shaft. Soon another finger entered him and began a scissoring motion that stung slightly but still wasn't overly troublesome.
Light quickened the pace of his handiwork on Ryuga's arousal, in an attempt to distract him as the third digit was pushed inside.
However, Light knew it didn't work, due to the vantage point of having the raven's head resting on his shoulder, he perceived the pale man's gritted teeth and wincing eyes.
" Ryu." Light murmured soothingly as he leaned forward to kiss away the other's pained expression.
During the innocent kiss, Light pulled out his fingers, certain he had adequately stretched the man's entrance. He let his lips linger on Ryuga's for a moment, but when Light severed the kiss it was to look into the eyes of the wild, haired raven as he penetrated him.
Light guided his length against the raven's waiting portal and thrust forward filling the youth with his tip. Yet, that alone was enough to make the pale man howl in pain, Light slowly edged deeper into the dark-haired man, watching as his face twisted in agony, and tears dripped from the corners of his big, black eyes. Light paused his movement's to kiss away the crystalline drops, before sheathing himself completely inside Ryuga's incredibly hot and tight passage. A blood-curling scream issued from the raven's mouth and pierced the night.
" AAAHHHH!"
Goosebumps prickled Light's skin at the sound and he willed himself to remain still until Ryuga consented to go further. The raven's heated portal was clamped firmly against his length making it even more tempting to thrust into such incredible tightness. Yet, Light's patience managed to prevail s he waited for the pale youth to grow accustomed to the feel of him.
After what seemed like an eternity, the raven shifted his hips and nodded weakly. Light took his cue and pulled nearly all the way out before shoving himself completely back into that amazing heat.
" Oh, Ryu, you feel so good. So tight and warm." he moaned as he began thrusting faster into the raven, who blushed at the naughty praise.
Light noticed the scarlet hue that suddenly covered those porcelain cheeks and he launched several sloppy kisses across the pasty man's face.
" Light!"
Light felt his length collide with a bundle of nerves. Ryuga inhaled sharply, alerting Light to the fact that he had found his pleasure centre. The brunette aimed his jerky thrusts toward the younger man's prostate, enrapturing his youthful lover in a feverish bliss. The pale man began wantonly moving his hips backwards to meet Light's thrust. This both plunged the brunette even deeper inside the man and built momentum.
The dark-haired man keened Light's name repeatedly in the heat of his passion. Ryuga's constant cries and his snug entrance were pushing the brunette closer and closer. Light could feel something coiling in the pit of his stomach, which foretold of his proximity to the proverbial edge.
" Light!" cried the owl-eyed man louder than ever before. His lovely alabaster skin gleamed in a sheen of sweat as his opalescent orbs widened even further and he filled Light's hand with a sticky, white cream.
As Ryuga's climax swept through him, his entrance clenched down on Light's length, forcing him to come deep inside. Light's hot nectar filled the raven as his tight portal milked the brunette's member dry.
Light laid back onto the bed, causing the raven to fall backward with him. Ryuga lingered there for a moment, but when no arms enveloped him, he pulled himself off the brunette causing the softening member to slip from within his entrance.
As Ryuga shifted sideways to occupy an empty space of the bed, Light noticed the red and white fluid draining down the other's leg. The brunette became filled with guilt for having torn the other. He sat up and pulled Ryuga against him into a clutching embrace. Not noticing as the raven smiled happily to himself and brought his hands up to interlace his finger's with Lights.
" Ryu, was it good for you?" Light questioned a note of concern in his voice.
" Yes, Light, very much so" he answer pleasantly. A feint blush covered his wan cheeks as he snuggled deeper into the hold and was for once truly content.
They had remained in that embrace for quite some time, clutching almost desperately at each other, as if they feared that some circumstance may tear them apart again.
However, neither could permanently withstand the beckoning of the post-coital weariness that rushed over their senses and soon they drifted off to sleep.
"All the world 's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts"
-William Shakespeare. As You Like It.
The vexing noise of a familiar voice accompanied by a repetitive pounding awoke Light at an ungodly hour. It was far too early to be awake and he was far too tired to be bothered. Yet, he had experienced this phenomenon before. The irritating source of the ruckus, was undoubtedly Misa, who had come to inform him of some urgent news. Yet, he knew from experience that this supposedly significant information never was anything more than a trivial matter.
He arose with full intentions of dismissing the blonde woman from his residence. However, when he opened the door she waltzed passed him babbling incessantly about something. Light silently began to panic. What if she found Ryuga in his bed? Was she naïve enough to believe him, if he claimed they had simply been having a friendly sleep over?
" Misa, I'm so very tired, please leave." he sighed.
" Light, I just got here and you haven't been spending enough time with your Misa-Misa." she whined.
" Misa, I'm sorry. Can you come again tomorrow?" he asked.
" Liiighht, you told Misa-Misa she would be beside you when you became the god of the new world. Misa-Misa should be beside her Kira." she complained.
Light froze at her words. She was speaking openly about him being Kira and Ryuga was in the next bedroom sleeping. It was apparent that Misa needed to leave now.
Light pulled the blonde into his arms and delivered a quick kiss to her glossed lips. When he pulled away she was smiling with a lofty look in her eyes.
" Misa, I'm very tired." he stated.
" Oh, Light, your tired? How bout I come by tomorrow evening for a date, then?"
" Sure." he murmured.
" Okay! Goodnight!" she chirped before she dazedly stumbled out the door.
Light rushed back into the bedroom to make sure Ryuga hadn't awoken during the conversation. When he arrived the raven was breathing steadily and sleeping soundly as if no disturbance had ever occurred. Light sighed in relief and tucked himself into bed beside his unconscious lover.
"Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall".
-William Shakespeare. Measure for Measure.
However, Light didn't know just how incorrect he was. Ryuga had not been asleep and there was no reason whatsoever for the brunette to feel an ounce of relief. Because Light hadn't heard the raven call out to him in concern as he left the room in a mad rush to the door. It was also because Light didn't notice Ryuga's doting concern that the secret sleuth grew even more worried and silently watched the occurrence between a certain Misa Amane and Light Yagami from the bedroom doorway, which was the same room he and Light had made love in just earlier on that very same night.
Ryuga, who was also L, had heard the entire conversation between the two. He heard Misa's needy pleas for some of Light's time and he couldn't blame her. He personally knew what it was like to yearn for the handsome man.
He had seen the same man that had moved inside him in the throes of passion just a few hours ago kiss a woman, he claimed meant nothing to him. Then, he heard Light promise to go on a date with this woman that meant nothing.
Nevertheless, none of those revelations could compare to the most important one of all that night. Which was that Light Yagami, the love of his life, was Kira.
When Misa had gone L immediately went back to bed and feigned sleep. His heart was racing as Light entered the room and eyed him closely to make sure he had been asleep. Light hadn't noticed his lover's fretting heart and L knew why. It was because Light was Kira and Kira could never love him.
Now, Kira lay in bed with him. It was the same tarnished bed he had seduced Misa in. The same filthy bed where L had unknowingly submitted himself to Kira, because Light Yagami, the love of his life, was Kira.
