OMG DISCLAIMER: I don't own Death Note or its characters. I doubt that in any of my chapters I will ever end up owning Death Note. Call it a hunch, but I'm pretty sure ;).
McFuzzy: Welcome back my loving readers! So, guess what movie I just watched?
Light: Why don't you humor us and not tell us?
McFuzzy: Kung Pow! I love those ninja movies, especially Kung Fu Hustle. Those two are my favorites.
Light: Why do we care?
McFuzzy: I figured that if you were bored those would be some good comedies to watch…
Light: You control me for Christ's sake! Why would you make me watch a movie?!
Ryuuzaki: But what do you de when she isn't writing?
Light: Nothing, I guess.
McFuzzy: See, there you go. Movie time is anytime.
Light: Why do you two always gang up on me?
McFuzzy: You started it…
Light: Just end this torture already. On with the story!
Chapter 7 - A Rose for You -
Light got home and flung himself on his bed. It had been one hell of a long day, and he wasn't interested in anything but sleep.
"Humans sleep too much…" Ryuuzaki mumbled. Light ignored the comment and slipped under the covers, wriggling in comfort. He loved the feel of soft sheets. Ryuuzaki slipped out of the bedroom with his laptop and shut the door behind him.
Light was falling fast. His eyes snapped shut, and just like a log, he rolled into silence.
--
Light darted up out of his bed in a gasp. He felt cold; very, very cold. He patted his arms around his shoulders and exhaled through his shivering. He could see his breath.
"What the hell?" His voice was breathy and soft. Light whipped out of bed and opened the door to his bedroom and crept out, silently sneaking into the living room where he thought Ryuuzaki was.
"Ryuuzaki?" He could barely even whisper; he couldn't raise his voice. He looked around his couch and there saw a coffin, black with golden embroidery. Light thought it was beautiful when he looked at it. Is this where Ryuuzaki sleeps?
From inside Light could hear a very deep breathing, almost like moaning if he didn't know any better. He ran his hands over the top of the coffin to feel its smooth edges. His body was shaking violently at this point, from fear and from cold.
He tapped on it, almost like knocking. Light felt silly for doing that but when there came no reply, and Light started to worry.
He pried at the top of the coffin to try and get it open, but it was increasingly heavy. The more Light tried, the heavier it seemed to become. "Ryuuzaki?! Are you in there?"
"No." He whipped around to see Ryuuzaki standing behind him. His eyes were cold, almost to the point that they froze Light in his tracks.
"What's going on?" He jumped back when he felt the coffin shake underneath of his hand. He looked at it in horror. Something inside began pounding the top of the lid, sounding frantic and desperate. He heard screaming inside.
"Fuck, Ryuuzaki! Who the hell is in that thing?"
"Take a look." He watched as Ryuuzaki lifted the lid, very slowly and very tenderly. He let the lid slide off the top and hit the ground with a crash.
Roses. The inside of the coffin held a bed of roses, pure and deep red, like that of blood, all sitting inside of a golden interior.
Light picked one up and smelled it. It had no scent. He let his fingertips brush across the silky petals of each and every rose inside, feeling each thorn graze over his skin.
When he rested his hand on them and looked to Ryuuzaki, he could feel the roses moving under his fingers. Before he could pull back, a hand jutted out of the rose bed and grasped Light firmly by the wrist.
Light tried to scream, but when the body emerged from the roses, he saw himself.
Light was holding Light's wrist. He screamed violently, thrashing against the grasp he had on his hand, but when he closed his eyes and opened them again, he was staring up at Ryuuzaki.
He felt soft roses cradling his face and his entire body, every now and then getting pricked by thorns. When he struggled, he hit an edge; he was in the coffin.
Ryuuzaki leaned over and let his hot breath brush across Light's face, then down to his neck. He gently suckled the flesh right on Light's vein, causing a sharp gasp from Light. He could feel Ryuuzaki take in a deep breath, almost as if he was smelling Light.
"Fall." Then he bit.
--
Light burst out of his bed panting. He had another bad dream; it was becoming something of a routine. He put his hand to his chest and froze immediately when he felt something shifting on the other side of the bed.
He looked over to see Ryuuzaki sitting there, eying Light with his thumb to his mouth. He sighed in relief.
"Raito-kun was having a nightmare?" He never shifted his gaze. Light nodded in reply. That dream he had made him especially nervous because in his new found powers, could he really trust anyone?
He fell back and let his head land on his pillow. Ryuuzaki couldn't bite him; he had no blood.
"Do you have blood, Ryuuzaki?"
"Indeed. That is what makes you and I different." Light was pondering some things.
"Why would you need blood and I don't?"
"I infect humans with my own blood when I suck their blood. That is what makes them vampires. However, since Raito-kun's body is supposed to be that of a God, you reacted differently towards the bite."
"So I can never make other vampires. Your blood is inside of me then?"
"It was at some point, yes."
"Was my blood pure?" Ryuuzaki shifted at the question and faced Light. He gazed deeply into his eyes with his own coal orbs.
"The purest and sweetest I have ever tasted, Raito-kun." Light smiled at this. He liked the idea of having a delicious blood.
"Can I taste your blood, Ryuuzaki?"
"Raito-kun is not ready to drink my blood. In six months, I will consider it." Light sat up, now scowling at Ryuuzaki.
"What do you mean, 'not ready'?" He practically fumed.
"When a 'subordinate' is turned into a vampire, they are servant to their master. Raito-kun would be the servant and I am the master." Light scowled even deeper.
"In the event that he drinks my blood, Raito-kun will become very powerful. This signifies the 'graduation,' as you would call it, of the servant. Seeing as how I've only known him for about a week, though, I do not deem Raito-kun worthy of my blood." Light sat there gaping at L.
"You bastard!" He reached out and punched Ryuuzaki square in the jaw, watching him as he flew backwards and tumbled off of the bed.
He jumped up and lunged at Light, who was still sitting on the bed, and they both ended up flying off of the bed, landing hard on the floor.
Ryuuzaki then flung himself over and pounced on top of Light who retaliated by jabbing Ryuuzaki hard in the stomach with his foot.
He landed on the ground with a thud, then once again leaped at Light. Light wasn't quite ready for Ryuuzaki's quick reaction as he felt a heavy body land on him, crushing his lungs and knocking the wind off of him.
Light coughed for air, but he quickly rolled both of their bodies so that Light was on top now, taking heavy jabs at Ryuuzaki's face.
Ryuuzaki flung a very surprised Light off of him with incredible force and bounced up. Light landed on his stomach and he groaned in pain.
"Shit, Ryuuzaki! That hurt!" He squirmed on his elbows and attempted to get up when Ryuuzaki snaked in behind him and grabbed Light's arms, jerking him to sit up on his knees.
Light shifted and squirmed as he felt Ryuuzaki's chest heave on his back Light was panting to catch his breath, but froze as he felt ghostly lips trail up his neck from behind.
"Ahhh!" Light closed his eyes and blushed, feeling goose bumps rise on his skin as Ryuuzaki tenderly licked his sensitive skin.
He wriggled around, trying to free himself from Ryuuzaki's hold, desperately trying to quell his groin.
The position he was in was making him very aroused. He felt Ryuuzaki suddenly suck very hard on the skin above Light's vein, then he bit down hard and unmercifully on Light's flesh.
"Shit," Light panted out. He lapped at Light's swollen flesh, but stopped when nothing came out. Ryuuzaki suddenly let go of his grip and let Light fall onto his stomach again, still blushing.
He didn't want to get up at the risk of Ryuuzaki seeing a partially hard member that he was carrying.
"I apologize, Raito-kun. It seems as if I have lost control." He turned over to see Ryuuzaki slouching above him with hands in his pockets, still breathing raggedly, but wearing an emotionless expression.
He realized that even if Ryuuzaki seemed composed all the time, he was still a blood sucking undead. His instincts must have made him try to suck Light's imaginary blood. He also remembered that he hadn't had any blood lately.
What the hell is wrong with me then!? Light mentally smacked his head. Situations like that should not make him horny of all things! Light willed away what erection he had left and stood up, then went to lie on the bed.
They sat in a shrouded silence, the tensions growing a bit thicker every second. It was making Light uncomfortable because they were just staring at each other.
He looked away, blushing a bit. "I suppose I lost control as well." He saw an eerie smile spread across Ryuuzaki's face, then he crept into the bed where Light was.
Light curled up and turned so that his back was facing Ryuuzaki. He didn't understand why Ryuuzaki still stayed in bed when he never slept.
Light felt a soft squirming at the other side of the bed, then felt Ryuuzaki's presence get uncomfortably close. He jumped a bit when Ryuuzaki's arms snaked around his waist and then forcefully reeled him in so that his body was cupping Light's.
"Ryuuzaki, what the hell are you doing?"
"Raito-kun has been having bad dreams, right? This will ensure that he does not have them anymore." Light blushed again, this time furiously. Was this guy just making up excuses? He could never tell because his voice was always so monotone.
Light just shrugged to himself, deciding to ignore the position, and figured he would need the sleep.
He rubbed his neck where Ryuuzaki had bitten him. That bastard. Light made a mental note to get back at Ryuuzaki.
