Holy crap...it's been forever since I uploaded for this story...O: Sorry...been working on other fan fictions...XP Plus I couldn't come up with a good plot for this story after Light returned and I considered deleting it for a while...good thing I didn't...XD (right?) Thank You: XxCrimsonXXAngelxX, Azura Soul Reaver, SweetToothedSleuth, xXGoody Not-So-Great-MeXx, Random Girl 3, Amiru Chan, arisu rin and AkashaCullen26!! :D
The treadmill beneath Katsu's feet hummed as she trotted on it, her scarlet pony tail swinging from left to right and her arms pumping at her sides. She decreased her speed, the air becoming easier to breath and she slowed the treadmill to a walk, Mello clearing his throat from the couch beside her and Light stretched out in midair on her other side.
"So what fun stuff shall we do next?" Matt asked and began to light a cigarette.
"Well, I'm going to kick you if you even think about smoking in my basement," Katsu growled but smiled when she saw Matt slip the cigarette back into his pocket.
"Sorry..."
Katsu flashed him a forgiving smile and Light touched his feet back to the carpet as Katsu stopped the treadmill all together, her hands plating on her hips as she caught her breath.
"You know you guys, there's something I've been wondering something," Akasuki stated from the chair, her legs crossing beneath her and Matsuda's eyes connected with hers.
"What is it Akasuki?" Katsu asked, her golden brown eyes quizzing the brunette.
"Hirota-san, I don't mean to bring this up again...but...your parents...when you told me how they died, something didn't seem right," she started and Katsuko stared at her.
"What--? Do you know something about them, Akasuki?"
"No, I don't but the way they died...it seemed so strange to me," the brunette replied and Light raised an eyebrow, waiting for an explanation.
"What's your hunch, Akasuki?" Matsuda asked and she bit her lip.
"I think someone might have written their names in a Death Note," Akasuki almost whispered and Katsuko felt Light's hands support her back as her knees began to weaken.
"S-someone could have...but what makes you say that?"
"Think about it Katsuko. The way your parents died is so screwed up...I mean, an envelope opener? Really? It would have been more realistic if it were a knife but--"
"Who do you think did it?" Matt cut her off.
Akasuki paused and Katsuko's eyes glued to her friend.
"I don't know...that's why I didn't want to say anything but now...I really think something is behind the deaths of Fajra and Bishamon Hirota. I'm almost one hundred percent positive that someone might have done something behind the scenes," Akasuki explained, her heart pounding as her eyes met Katsuko's. Mello chewed his lower lip and then shot Light a dirty look.
"Out of all of us here," he growled, "you're the only one that had access to a Death Note," he accused and Light opened his mouth, his eyes blazing.
"Why the hell are you accusing me?! I would never do that!" the shinigami exclaimed and Mello scoffed.
"You didn't hesitate to kill off her idol slash fiancee so..."
"That was entirely different! I wouldn't kill her parents! I had no reason to!"
"Oh, so you're alright with murdering the one person that actually made her happy and helped her become the woman she is today, but hey, her parents, who were whack jobs to begin with--"
"Mello that's enough. We're not going to go throwing accusations at anyone okay?" Katsu defended, stepping in front of Light protectively and Matt made an irritated clicking noise.
"However, I wouldn't be shocked either--"
"Matt, are you deaf?"
Mello crossed his arms, his eyes signaling Matt to stop and Matsuda stood.
"I suggest we stop for the night. It's getting late...I think we should leave and restart this tomorrow," he tried to sooth and Akasuki followed suit.
"I'm sorry Hirota-san...but I will look more into it," she promised and trailed behind Matsuda to the stairs. "Good night everyone."
"See ya tomorrow Akasuki, Matsuda," Matt waved as she and Matsuda climbed the stairs to head out.
"I guess we better leave too. See you tomorrow Kat," Matt said and Katsu hopped off the treadmill to give him a hug.
"Bye Matty, bye Mello," she said and gave Matt's head a sisterly rub. "See you tomorrow."
Mello flashed her a smile and the two men left, leaving Light and Katsu alone.
"Light," Katsu turned around, seeing him behind her and his head bowed, "I know you didn't."
He raised his eyes to hers and stepped over to her.
"I promise you, I didn't," Light stroked her face and Katsu leaned more into his body, not saying a word. "I promise you I didn't--"
"Shut up," Katsu breathed and kissed the corner of his mouth.
"Katsu--"
She didn't respond and kissed his lips as he pulled away, his hands on her shoulders.
"Katsu--" Light's brown eyes were heavy and Katsu pushed his hands off her shoulders.
"Listen, I know you aren't proud of what you've done in the past, but I don't want you dwelling on it forever. I really miss L, I really do. I would give anything to have him back. Mello's right, L is my idol but he's gone. If I didn't accept the fact I can't bring him back, then..." she trailed off and Light embraced her.
"Katsu, believe me, if I could do it all over again I would. I never wanted to hurt you...ironically enough I tried to shield you from it and ended up only using everyone as a pawn to satisfy my own possessive love for you..." he clutched the back of her shirt and buried his face in her shoulder. Katsu felt a soft smile spread across her face and she stroked Light's hair lovingly, inhaling deeply.
"Light, I know who you really are, alright? I promise you, I'm not holding any grudges. Yes, you've done your share of sins but...anyone could have been corrupted by the power of the notebook. Anyone could have found it...anyone could have become Kira...it's not like you asked to obtain that kind of power."
Light barely raised his head off her shoulder and Katsu felt his lips kiss her neck tenderly. She lowered her arms to around his torso, her embrace tightening so his body so her own pressed more against his. Light inhaled the innocent sent of her rose conditioner and ran his fingers through her scarlet waves, his breathing rate beginning to accelerate.
"Raito..." Katsu breathed, her fingers gripping the back of his shirt and Light kissed her neck again, her back arching more and her body leaning willingly into his.
I love her...
Light finally gave into his need for her, picking Katsu up, her legs wrapping around him and she kissed him full on the mouth. His hand traveled up her back under her shirt as he carried her up the stairs effortlessly, her sweet, pure taste not leaving his lips.
I love her...
Katsu didn't show any signs of protest or hesitation when Light finally came to the top of the second flight of stairs and her bedroom. She felt his body on top of hers, the two of them laying on her bed, the white moonlight seeping through the darkened room. Light pinned her wrist down at her eye level, his fingers intersecting with her and she let go of his lips momentarily, panting heavily. Light hesitated before doing anything else, wondering if he was pushing her too far and she raised her free hand to his face, caressing his cheek.
"Did I do something wrong?" she asked softly and Light cocked his eyebrows.
"No...I just wasn't sure if you were ready..."
Katsu blinked, seeming bewildered.
"How long have we been in love with each other?"
"Good point...but still..." Light said, realizing his other hand had Katsu's knee bent up by his hip. Katsu smiled at him, somewhat mischievously, and her eyes seemed to flicker with a sort of lightning Light had never seen before. He couldn't help half smiling back, very pleased with her reaction and Katsuko closed her eyes, her fingers wrapping around his tie and pulling him closer to her.
"Love me, Light Yagami," she whispered into his ear and felt her hand travel down his shirt to the front of his pants, her fingers unbuttoning them. Light let a quiet laugh escape passed his lips and Katsu began unbuttoning his shirt, his tie now off and cast aside. Light pushed her shirt up over her head and arms, his hand sliding back down her side to her shorts and gripped the elastic.
I want this woman all to myself...I love her so much...
Katsu gasped lightly as Light began to pull her shorts off and she removed his shirt, her chest pressing against his then going back down again, her breathing rapid and Light could feel her heart pounding in her chest.
Her innocence...her beauty...she's everything...
Light's mind raced, his body and instinct completely controlling everything he did. Katsu's body underneath his...his fingers tangled in her scarlet hair...her arms locking around his lower back, encouraging him...her back arched again, her body pushing against his even more, both of them forgetting where their boundaries were...
I love Katsuko so much...I'd do anything for her...she's the reason I'm here now...she traded half her life span in order to keep me living...to make me a shinigami...she gave up half of her life for me...
"Raito...!" Katsu gasped every few minutes and Light had to stop one or twice in order for the both of them to catch their breaths, Katsu's innocent, golden brown eyes staring up at him. He panted, her fingers flexing on the back of his neck, running through his hair and Light laid his forehead against hers, his minty breath breezing across her slightly parted lips.
"I love you, so much, Katsu," Light whispered to her, breathing heavily and Katsuko smiled, resting her hand at her eye level. Light's hand found hers, his fingers gliding up her bare arm and his fingers intertwining with hers. He swallowed, his eyes looking into hers then closing, and Katsu lifted her head off the soft pillow and kissed him.
...after all the men she could have had...she chose me...
Katsu's kiss became more enthusiastic, her head dipping and her lips synchronizing with Light's in the same passionate rhythm as before. Her hand ran through his hair and Light felt a tear slip out of one of his closed eyes as Katsuko's warm tongue brushed against his. She gripped his hand and flipped him over, her hand traveling through his brown hair and his arms wrapped around her waist. Katsu let out a soft moan, Light keeping one of his hands over hers as she kissed him.
After all I've put her through...all the pain I made her suffer...she still loves me...
"Raito..." Katsu breathed and he sighed, "Raito...!"
...her heart is so pure...
"I love you, Raito..."
My sweet Katsu...
They continued, Katsu kissing the lips of the man she loved so dearly, and he returning the love she had for him. The covers made light sweat dampen both their bodies, the scarlet waves spilled across her body and partially his until he had her laying on her back once more, the sensations of the brief pain making Katsu gasp his name once more. Light paused for a moment, hoping to not hurt her but she allowed him to continue, her thoughts fully on him.
My sweet, gentle Katsu...
Half hour later...
Light clenched his teeth without her noticing, his arm underneath her back, holding her close to him as he slowed, both of them breathing heavily. Light stopped, Katsu's free hand gripping the corner of her pillow and she kept her big, innocent eyes on his. Light pressed his lips together, feeling exhausted but extremely pleased, and Katsu scooted over so he could lay comfortably next to her.
"Six years," he said to her, and Katsu's eyebrows creased.
"Since what?"
"You told me you loved me for the first time," Light smiled tenderly and Katsu returned it. Light propped his head up on his elbow, his fist half curling against his brown locks, his other arm around Katsu's waist.
"Hey, Light?"
"Mhmm?"
Katsuko cuddled up to him, feeling safe against his bare chest and Light tightened his arm around her.
"About my parents...do you think what Akasuki said about them...do you think that could be true?"
Light felt slightly taken aback, even though he had been expecting the question to come up, but even so, he hadn't thought of an answer to give her.
"Well," he started after a few moments of thoughtful silence, "I wouldn't see it as impossible."
Katsu shuddered and Light began to stroke her hair to comfort her. She closed her eyes, kissing his chest and relaxed after another handful of seconds, Light kissing her.
"Don't worry, Katsuko," he soothed and she felt herself begin to drift off to sleep as he stroked her scarlet hair, "everything is okay. I promise you, if your parents were being manipulated, we'd find out who was behind it. Near, Matt, Akasuki, Mello and Matsuda would help you too."
"Arigato, Raito," Katsu whispered, sleep almost consuming her and Light kissed her lips again.
"You're not alone, Katsu," he said and the red head smiled tiredly.
"I love you, Raito."
Light felt another smile spread across his face as Katsu fell asleep next to him, the silver moonlight still seeping through the shadows and onto Katsu's face when he had laid down. He caressed her sleeping face and ran his fingers through her hair as she slept peacefully, the shadow of a smile on her angelic face. Light snuggled close to her and then slipped into a serene rest as well in the arms of the woman he loved.
