Light Yagami, My Savior- Chapter 2/ Trust Me
Light stormed out of his home with no more than a jacket over his body despite the fact that it was snowing. He had so much in his mind… and most of it was about L. In fact, all of it was about L. He couldn't help but feel terrible for the poor panda like male. He tried to help him, but all L did was reject him, and Light knew why he had rejected him. L was too afraid to embrace anything or accept the fact that he was actually being cared for by someone. This made Light angry. He growled and let out a huff of smoke in the cold weather.
'Even if L rejects me, that doesn't mean that I'm going to stop trying,' Light thought to himself. 'I'm going to save that neglected soul whether he likes it or not.' Light stood at a bus stop and entered a bus once it arrived. He didn't feel like taking his car today; the snow caved it in anyways. Light felt eyes on him in the bus but didn't pay mind to them. The eyes probably belonged to a desperate girl or maybe a desperate boy. Light swore mentally and before the person who was staring at him found the nerve to speak to Light, Light stepped out of the bus. He didn't turn around once the bus stopped; all he did was thank the driver. Once on the street, Light started to walk towards the home L was confined in. In about 30 seconds, Light opened the door with a pair of keys. He entered, only to see Rangel, a male with blood red hair, and two other men.
"Hm, I thought you weren't coming today," Rangel said, smiling. Light's right eye twitched; he hated Rangel already.
"Well I'm here, aren't I?" Light said sharply. Rangel nodded slowly and continued to stare at Light with lust in his eyes.
"Tell me, Light-kun, do you enjoy pain?" Rangel asked in a seductive voice. The men around him dispersed immediately; they knew where this conversation was going other than Light. The last man who lingered was Alexander. He stared at Light for a while, then ascended the stairs. But Light was too disgusted to pay mind to anyone.
"Did you just call me Light-kun?" Light gagged. Rangel nodded. Light rolled his eyes and said, "I do not enjoy pain. I am not a masochist nor am I a sadist. Why?"
Rangel's eyes widened in interest and his smile grew wider. "Do you have something against sadists, Light? Do they disgust you?" Rangel entwined his hands together.
"Yes they do," Light flatly said. "I hate them. I hate people who find pleasure out of watching people suffer."
Rangel's smile twitched and he was now smiling from ear to ear. His eyes were wide with surprise and… something else. This scared Light in such a way that he took a step back.
"Sadists usually find sexual pleasure in hurting their victims," Rangel said suddenly. Light grimaced and took another step back. "Do you want to know who my victim is?" He leaned his head back on the couch with the same sinister smile on his face. He was gorgeous in such a terrible way.
"I don't want to know who your victim is you freak," Light spat. He was getting real angry real fast.
"It's L," Rangel sighed, ignoring Light. "And he can't do anything about it." He stood up from his couch and stepped towards Light. The brown haired male backed away from the red head. Light usually stood up for himself, but he was shorter than Rangel and most likely more weak. When two people fight, it would usually end to the sound of someone crying out in pain. If Light were to cry out, Rangel would enjoy it…
"Have you ever brang a whip down on someone's back, Light?" Rangel said in a wicked voice. Light shook his head. "How about multiple times? I have… and I simply love how L writhes in pain on the floor." Rangel smiled as Light frowned.
"You're nothing but a demon!" Light shouted right in Rangel's face. The red head stared down at Light and said, "Doesn't matter what I am. L will remain my little voodoo doll. You can try and help him but he will always be mine." Rangel's face was inches from Light's. The auburn haired male felt his hands trembling, but he didn't want Rangel to see them.
"I fucking hate you," Light hissed. Rangel raised an eyebrow.
"This is only your second day on the job and you already hate me? Hmm, I guess it can't be helped. Just watch your language, Light-kun. Wouldn't want to get fired, okay?" Rangel winked at Light and walked back to his couch. Light stood standing for a couple more seconds, then ran up the stairs.
'He better not be hurting L!' Light's mind screamed as he remembered the blood red male walk up these stairs. He threw L's room door open only to see L pressed against the wall and Alexander in front of him, shirtless.
"Ever heard of knocking?" Alexander asked, annoyed.
"Shut up and get out!" Light yelled. Alexander pulled on his black shirt in an instant and in seconds he was looming over Light.
"I'm not going to take shit from the noob in this house," Alex growled. Originally Light would back away from someone so tall, but he was so angry. Too angry. His blood was boiling and his entire body was shaking.
"Leave him the fuck alone," Light said in a shaking voice.
"Why should I?" Alexander asked. "I've known him longer."
"I don't care; L doesn't deserve any of this. Physical, emotional and mental pain? Really? That's too fucking much! He's the one working his ass off and you just decide to come up here and molest him?"
Alexander's face grimaced and he took a step closer to Light. Their chests were touching. "I'll do what I want, when I want. Got that?"
"No! I know that L hates what you're doing to him as much as I do! We ALL know that he hates what you're doing!"
"He doesn't resist me! So why should I give a damn?"
"He doesn't resist because he's too scared to do so! If he resists you, you will hurt him! If he resists Rangel, HE will hurt him! Even if he DOESN'T resist anything, you people will still hurt him! It's always a lose-lose situation for him, and he always blames himself for what you people do to him!" Light was infuriated, so much so that his entire body seemed to be shaking. He swore that if someone told Light to calm down, he'll get angrier.
But while Light and Alexander where arguing, L stood in the corner of the room staring wide eyed. He couldn't believe it… was someone actually… standing up for him? L flinched when he watched Rangel enter the room. He grabbed Light from behind and attempted to throw him out of the room, but Light was struggling too much. One thing that pissed him off more than being told to calm down was someone touching him while he was fired up. In the blink of an eye, Light flipped Rangel over his shoulder and the man hit the floor on his back. Alexander grabbed Light around the neck and literally lifted him off of his feet. All that came out of Light's mouth was a choking sound. But that didn't stop him from fighting the people off. He lashed his leg forward and nailed Alexander right in between his legs. The blood red head man released Light and fell to the floor, grunting.
"Say goodbye to your kids," Light coughed. He then looked at L. L was staring at Light with tired but surprised eyes. Without even thinking, Light ran towards L and grabbed the detective up in his arms. "Wrap your arms around my neck," Light gasped. L did as he was told. Light struggled to open the window as more men ascended the stairs.
"What the fuck happened!" A man yelled from the hallway. Panicking, Light's fingers slipped while trying to open the window, which seemed to be glued shut. Wait… Light stared at the windowsill. It WAS glued shut! This made Light scream, mostly out of anger. Just then, three men entered the room. They were all bigger than Light and L, and Light knew that he couldn't take them all on. Rangel stood up on his feet and ordered the men to take L from Light. But the brown haired male held on to L as if he were his child.
"Back off!" Light shouted. The men disobeyed and they all charged at the two adolescents. Thinking frantically, Light leaped up onto the bed and bounced off like a rabbit, L still in his arms. He hit the floor and ended up on the other side of the room where the door was. Making sure to step on Alexander, Light charged out of the room in a hurry and flew down the stairs, leaping over the final four.
"GET BACK HERE!" Rangel shouted, close behind. For the first time ever, Rangel was pissed. Light paid no mind to the call, grabbed his jacket, and bolted out the door of the house. He knew he needed his jacket; if he left it behind, his wallet, ID, and everything would be theirs.
"Can you run!" Light gasped as he made his way through the snow. L gave Light a confused look and shrugged. "Never mind," Light said, thinking of himself as stupid. Of course L couldn't run, he was malnourished and beaten. "I'll just hold on to you and bring you home with me." L continued to look up at Light; he did not know what to think. Was Light kidnapping him to save him, or to use him as his own slave? L closed his eyes; all he knew was that he was finally out of that house.
~Light finally made it to his home without even taking the bus. He was so exhausted as he let L and himself fall to the floor. Even though L was safe, he still kept his arms around Light's neck. Light was on top of the detective with his arms around L's waist. Both of them were extremely cold, and L had never found warmth in an embrace before. It felt so… nice to him, but weird too. After a while, Light asked, "Are you okay, L?" L nodded and released Light. Realizing the position they were in, Light hopped off of L and smiled shyly.
"I'm sorry, L," Light mumbled. His hands were numb, his feet were numb… he really needed a bath. But before Light took one, he wanted L to take it first. "Would you like to take a bath, L?" L stared at Light but nodded, not wishing to disappoint him. Suddenly, L's entire body tensed, and Light noticed this.
"Are you alright?" Light asked, putting a cold hand on L's shoulder. L didn't respond and ran his hands through his body, then sighed.
"Thank God…," L said. Those were the first words L had said since Light picked him up.
"What is it?" Light asked, being somewhat nosey.
"I thought I left my picture…," L mumbled. He pulled out a slightly crumpled picture from his pants and showed it to Light. Light made a face and stared at it oddly, then smiled.
"It's a picture of you, your brother and your friends, right?" Light asked. L shook his head.
"It is a picture of me, and my best friends. I do not have a brother."
"Then… who is that?" Light pointed to a guy that looked just like L.
"That is one of my friends. I know it is strange that he looks just like me but we were all best friends. He loved Strawberry Jam… his name was Beyond." L showed Light the photo. Light raised his eyebrows in fascination. Then reluctantly, L continued, "The white haired boy was named Near, he was quiet, smart but caring. The blonde id named Mello. He, well, he had a colorful vocabulary and he was very outgoing. The red head playing the video game is called Matt. He never removed those yellow goggles from his eyes, and he was never seen without a video game in his hands. He was also caring and unique. And like I said about Beyond, he liked Strawberry jam and he had a somewhat psychotic personality. He always loved the color, smell, taste and texture of blood. He'd bite his lip occasionally to taste the blood. He bit me once, too."
"Jeez," Light said, a little more interested in this particular character. "Were you closest to Beyond?"
L nodded and put the picture away in his pants.
"So how about that bath, huh?" Light said kindly, standing up. He couldn't feel his toes, but he didn't care. He just wanted L to be alright. This actually made Light feel a little weird. Why did he care so much for one person…? Light decided to shrug it off and he held his hand out towards L. L took it and both of them stood up. Light brang L upstairs and led him to the bathroom. It was huge and smelled of cinnamon candles. L loved the smell every since he was a child and he breathed it in.
"I love this scent," L said quietly.
"Me too," Light replied with a smile. "I'll make sure to buy more if I run out then." Light patted L's head and turned the faucet. Warm water began to pour out into the white tub and in about a minute it was full. The room was a soft orange/brown color, just like the color of Autumn. L began to undress himself while Light was still in the room and Light blushed. He so wanted to see the rest of L's body but, well, he had to respect him.
"Take all of the time you want, L," Light said, walking out of the room. "When you are done, just let me know."
"Okay," L mumbled, but Light was already out. The panda like male sank into the water until only his eyes and hair were visible. He missed the feeling of warm water on his skin, and he missed the smell of cinnamon. L took it all in, he loved it all. But L wanted Light to continue to hold him. Already he missed Light's hugs. L hugged himself and closed his eyes, God had heard his prayers. No more Rangel, no more Alexander, no more anything. All he had was Light, and he was happy with him alone.
Light sat in his room with his hand on his head. He couldn't believe what just happened today. He actually attempted to jump out of a window to save L! Light shook his head and looked down, then his mind began to wander until he thought of L. Then L's body… Light blushed and shook the image away from his head. 'Don't think of that!' Light thought to himself. He lay down on his bed and yawned. He wanted to be in the bathtub with L; he was so cold. Just then, Light heard L's voice from the bathroom. He hopped out of bed and walked to the bathroom. Opening the door, he saw L still sitting in the tub.
"Yes, L?" Light asked the detective.
"M-may you… come into the bath tub with me?" L asked with reluctance. Light felt his face heat up as he stared at L. Light nodded and began to unbutton his shirt. After stripping himself, he climbed into the white tub as L looked away from him. Light loved the feeling of warm water on his body. What he didn't expect to feel was L's body atop of his own. Light almost jumped out of his skin, but he decided to embrace the panda-like male around the waist. L wasn't trying to "get it on" with Light; he just wanted to hug him. L snuggled his head against Light's chest. Light couldn't help but blush; the guy that was once scared off his ass of Light was now cuddling up to him. Light blank mindedly kissed the top of L's head. L's face was hidden from Light's, but if Light were able to see the raven's face, he'd notice that L was blushing, too.
'Thank you, Light,' L thought, but he couldn't find the courage to say it out loud.
