Light Yagami, My Savior- Chapter 3/ Am I Safe?
L lay in bed motionlessly as he watched the sun slowly rise from outside of the window. He was always somewhat fascinated by it, even though he had seen it countless times. He was used to staying up all night, even if he was now out of that Hell cave those men called a home. L was in a room right next to Light's room, and as much as L denied it, he couldn't help but feel alone without the brown haired Yagami by his side. Still, he sighed and turned in bed, trying to forget the thoughts that were tormenting him from the past. He did not want to think of them… those 2 red headed men that tortured him day after day without any mercy in their cold eyes. Sighing, L turned in bed again, only to see Light standing at the door.
"Oh… good morning Light," L flatly said even though he was surprised. He sat up in his bed and assumed the Neko position again. Light smiled at L.
"Good morning L," Light said in a soft voice. He walked over to L and hugged him. L's body tensed under Light's grip; he was far from used to affection. "How did you sleep?" Light asked.
"I didn't sleep," L simply said. Light released the raven haired male and looked him square in the face.
"You didn't sleep?" Light mumbled. "Why? Nightmares?"
"No, insomnia." L climbed out of his bed and looked to the side. "May I use your bathroom?"
"Of course," Light said with a smile. "And you don't have to ask. Just go ahead."
L smiled at Light and walked to the bathroom out in the hallway. He stepped inside and looked around the cinnamon scented room. It was one of his favorite places in the house. It made him feel at peace… well that and Light. L stood in front of the mirror and slowly removed his shirt. He studied his body with disgust; it was covered in scars. They were not too noticeable, but they were noticeable. L diverted his attention away from the mirror and washed his face in an instant so that he wouldn't have to see his body anymore. As L poured water on his face, he thought about how Light would react if he saw his entire body. Would Light dislike L after seeing it…? L hesitated and thought of yesterday when he and Light shared the bath with each other… L lightly blushed. As he reached out to pick up a tooth brush L claimed as his own, his hand began to tremble, and he wasn't sure why. It was probably because of two reasons; one, because he was not used to all of the hospitality he was suddenly receiving or two, L was too afraid and continued to think that Rangel would find him again…
"You alright in there, L?" Light asked from outside of the bathroom door. L startled and almost dropped his tooth brush. Then he answered, "Yeah, I'm fine Light." He turned on the water faucet and applied tooth paste onto the brush. Ever so slowly he brang the object up to his mouth and began to brush his teeth.
~Rangel punched the wall with such force that the concrete crumbled beneath his fist. The men around the enraged red head inched away; all except for Alexander. He remained still, with a straight face, and did nothing but stare at nothingness. Rangel turned his entire body around in half a second and faced all of the men around him.
"Was it too hard to catch ONE man carrying ANOTHER in his arms!" he shouted. Everyone cringed as Alexander stood his ground, his eyes still focused on nothing.
"Are all of you that weak? That slow? To the point where you couldn't even catch him?"
"Well, if it was so easy, Rangel, why weren't you able to catch them?" A bulky man sputtered out, not trying to insult Rangel at all. Instead, he was actually speaking the truth. Rangel stared at the man with a flustered and blank expression as if he'd just got the final question wrong to a million dollar game show. His hair a fuzzy mess, Rangel simply said, "This is WHY." He pulled out a pistol before anyone could react and shot the man 2 times in the head. The once standing male was now on the floor, dead. Alexander was unfazed.
"Does anyone else want to ask me a fucking question?" Rangel spat, pointing his gun around. All of the men remained still and did not say a word. "Good."
"He had a point," Alexander suddenly said, breaking the eerie silence. All of the men in the room turned and looked at the man with the blood red hair, as if their eyes were saying good bye to him, too. Rangel immediately glared at Alexander and said, "Oh, so you agree with him?"
"Yes," Alexander flatly said. "I stood in front of Light and tried to prevent him from leaving. But it seemed as if he was too much for me. Maybe you should have tried and stopped him too before they left, Rangel."
Rangel pointed the gun at Alexander's head.
"Oh Rangel…," Alexander mumbled. "Do you really want to do that? Or do you want to get those two guys back?" Alexander eyed Rangel in a sinister way. "Because if you shoot me, it's one thing I know you will ALWAYS regret." Alexander kept his gaze with Rangel's as the two stared at each other. Then, arm slightly trembling, Rangel but the gun down. Alexander cracked a smile.
~Light stared out of his window for a while as he watched the snow continue to fall to the ground. He sighed and thought of how great the snow was at first, but how annoying it was to maneuver through when you desperately needed to. Light then turned around and glanced at his fire place, which was burning wood and glowing a mesmerizing orange. Light began to think of L for a while and what he must've gone through in his life with all of those men. He frowned and instantly knew that it would take L a while for him to get completely used to Light's company. Light turned his attention to the snow outside one more time before standing up and rushing towards the kitchen. On his way, he rammed into L pretty hard.
The panda like detective almost fell over and looked up at Light with wide eyes.
"Oh, I'm so sorry L," Light apologized. He helped L up on his feet again and stood in front of the male. L only shook his head and tried to smile at Light. It was obvious that L wasn't used to smiling that much. Light looked down at the floor and realized that the picture L had kept so near and dear to him was on the floor again. "Uh, L you dropped this," Light said, handing L the photo. L's eyes widened in worry and he grabbed the image from Light's hand like a child.
"You should keep that in a safer spot, L," Light warned L. L only shrugged and said, "I think it's safest when it's closest to me." Light smiled and a feeling of warmth poured out inside of him.
"It's alright if you keep it atop of a drawer or if you want me to hold on to it," Light offered. L simply shook his head and preferred that he'd keep it. "Hm, so are you hungry, L?" Light asked.
"Yeah," L answered, placing the photo in his shirt and walking into the kitchen right next to Light.
"What would you like?" Light asked the detective.
"Cake," L stated, keeping his head down.
"Well then we'll have to make some…" Light said, taking out cake mix from a cabinet. L perked up to the sound of making cake, but his heart somewhat sank when he thought of the very thing, too. It reminded him of Alexander, who always used to bring him some sort of sweet when everyone else paid no mind to him. L was confused about him; Alexander would always treat him so wrongly, but then other times, L would hunger for his company when he felt truly alone. L didn't know why, but he knew that deep down in Rangel, there was a good side to him. L just knew it, and no one was going to tell him otherwise.
~Out of the eight men that stood in the room, only 2 remained. Alexander stood in front of Rangel and scanned the area with half- surprised eyes. "Why did you freak out, Rangel?" Alexander simply said.
"Shut up," Rangel growled, putting his hand to his head.
"You don't have to answer, anyways. I already know. It's 'cuz you hate losing, don't you?"
"I haven't lost!" Rangel snapped. "Not yet! I am going to find those two, and I am going to kill the brown haired one first. Then I will make that stupid detective suffer."
Alexander couldn't care less about Light, but when it came to L, he was protective. He didn't like the whole "suffering" idea Rangel had planned, but he was silently going with it. "So it's just you and me now, hm, Rangel?" Alexander questioned.
"Obviously," Rangel spat, putting his gun away. "So that means you're the only one I'm counting on. Let me down even ONCE, and I'm going to blast your head off."
Rangel only smiled, then said, "And if you let me down…," he whispered something into Rangel's ear. Rangel glared at his partner, venom in his eyes, but after a moment, he said, "Fine, you asshole."
"Then it's a deal," Alexander smiled.
