Don't forget to review!!!!!!

When I woke up Ryuzaki had stopped watching the tapes and was sipping a cup of coffee. Some papers were splayed out on a table in front of him, and his laptop was open to a program I didn't recognize. He actually looked quite comical, seeing as he hadn't remembered to put his clothes on since I took them off of him the previous night. Looking down at myself I realized I was naked as well.

"What's that?" I asked, startling Ryuzaki.

"Kira research," he answered. "Coffee?" he extended the cup towards me.

"Huh? No, I'm fine," I shook my head.

"I figured you'd say that. I had Watari bring you some potato chips," Ryuzaki nodded towards the table. Sure enough, an unopened bag of potato chips was resting there. I took it and starting eating, shutting up my growling stomach.

"I haven't eaten anything with substance in days. Just potato chips and ice cream," I complained.

"Yes. That always makes me feel much smarter," Ryuzaki said quietly, swallowing some coffee.

"Look, I think we should talk, Ryuzaki," I said, cutting to the chase.

"There will be plenty of time for talking after I've solved the Kira case," he digressed.

"After you've solved it? You're not the only person working on this, you know," I reminded him.

"Yes, but I'm the only one who's going to solve it. I'm the only one working close enough with Kira himself," Ryuzaki stared pointedly at me.

"I'M NOT KIRA!" I shouted.

"Hm, you sure do protest a lot," Ryuzaki stroked his lip.

"Shut up!" I sat up. "Maybe you're Kira, not me! You're the only person on this case that hasn't been investigated and bugged and videotaped and followed! What's the possibility that you're Kira, huh Ryuzaki?" I pointed a finger at his chest.

"Zero percent," he replied, typing something on his laptop. "Trying to blame others. Also Kira-like behavior," he shook his head disapprovingly.

"I'M NOT KIRA!" I groaned. "Ugh, could we please just talk about what happened last night?"

"Go ahead," Ryuzaki shrugged.

"You might be right. Maybe I'm using you. But not deliberately. I just can't help myself. Please, Ryuzaki, we should continue how things have been going. It's a great stress-reliever," I tried to convince him.

"I've found that eating sweets also relieves stress," Ryuzaki drank his coffee.

"I thought my lips counted as sweets," I leaned closer to him. He licked his lips.

"You shouldn't be distracting me," he gritted his teeth.

"Please, L," I used his name persuasively. He didn't try to hide it when a smile flickered across his face.

"If I allow you to…relieve your stress, will you be able to focus on the Kira case?" Ryuzaki raised his non-existent eyebrows.

"Yes!" I nodded eagerly.

"Fine. But you owe me a banana split," Ryuzaki bargained.

"Deal," I said hurriedly before he could change his mind. I resumed munching on my potato chips and looked over Ryuzaki's shoulder as he worked on the case.

An hour later Misa bounded into the room, threw her arms around my neck, and squealed.

"Oh Light! I missed you so much!" she cried.

"It hasn't even been an entire day," I rolled my eyes.

"I have the MOST romantic thing to do today! There's a carnival in the city, and we can go together! We can ride the Ferris Wheel and eat cotton candy and you can win me prizes!" Misa beamed.

"Cotton candy is delicious," Ryuzaki licked his lips.

"You're not coming!" Misa scowled.

"He has to come," I said before Ryuzaki could respond. "We're attached," I held up our handcuffed wrists to remind her.

"UGH! You are MY boyfriend, not his!" Misa stomped her foot. I shrugged.

Ryuzaki called for a car which arrived quickly, and the three of us piled into it. Misa glared at Ryuzaki for the entire ride, who cocked his head to the side and stared back.

"You two are ridiculous," I snorted. Misa hmphed1. The carnival was somewhat far away, and it took a while to get there. When we finally did Misa rushed out of the car and took my un-Ryuzaki-handcuffed hand in hers.

"Let's go on the Ferris Wheel first!" she squealed. Ryuzaki got out of the car and looked down at his feet, frowning. He hated to wear shoes, but the ground at a carnival was just too unsanitary to go barefoot on. The three of us headed over to the ticket booth and bought wristbands. Misa giggled and asked me to help her put hers on, but I pretended I couldn't finagle it because of my handcuffed hand. Ryuzaki used his teeth to put his on for some strange reason, but I found he actually looked quite cute doing it.

Misa skipped over to the Ferris Wheel (Ryuzaki and I walked). We got there just in time for the next shift.

"Two to a seat," the cranky operator stopped us when the three of us tried to sit together.

"Oh. It appears Light and I will have to ride together," Ryuzaki said softly.

"Huh?! No way! I'm not riding alone!" Misa cried.

"Two to a seat," the operator sighed.

"Hey, hurry up, lady, we wanna ride too!" an annoyed person waiting in line yelled at Misa.

"I want to ride with Light!" she pouted.

"You don't have a choice, Misa, we're handcuffed," I said. Misa whimpered but reluctantly rode with a teenage fan boy that recognized her. Ryuzaki and I climbed onto the seat and the ride began.

The view was actually fairly gorgeous. When we reached the top we could see the entire carnival. (And Ryuzaki wasn't bad to look at either) I leaned in close to Ryuzaki and breathed onto his neck.

"I wish I could kiss you," I murmured. He couldn't hide his goosebumps.

"Yes, I wish you could too," he said back quietly.

I moved our handcuffed hands closer together, subtly slipping my fingers between his. Ryuzaki turned to look at me, appearing a bit bemused.

"That's interesting," he said.

"What?" I withdrew my hand.

"If you honestly are using me for simple sex, you wouldn't hold my hand," he stroked his lip. "Not something Kira would do. Although, maybe it is even more Kira-like than it seems. You want me to believe that you're not Kira, so you try to act loving and compassionate, two things Kira is not. But if you're only acting…" he let his voice trail off thoughtfully.

"I'm not acting! And I'm not Kira!" I defended myself. Ryuzaki stayed quiet.

Before the end of the ride, he slipped his hand back into mine.

When we got off of the Ferris Wheel Misa wanted to ride the Carousel. After that was the Haunted House. We were halfway through when a fake Shinigami popped out at us, causing Ryuzaki to shriek loudly and bury his head in my shoulder. I tried not to let Misa see my smile.

Ryuzaki wanted to go in the House of Mirrors, which turned out to be a lot of fun. We made funny faces, danced, and even snuck a quick kiss in the corner. It was hilarious watching ourselves distorted in the mirrors.

Next Misa insisted I pick a ride, and by then the sun was literally baking us. I chose the log flume, hoping it would cool us off.

Misa sat in the front, Ryuzaki in the middle, and I sat in the back. Ryuzaki had to bend his arm back slightly and I had to sit a little forward because of the handcuffs, but it worked out alright.

We reached the top of the massive drop, and all three of us couldn't help but scream and then laugh as we flew down it. We all got soaked. I shook my head like a dog, trying to dry myself off. Ryuzaki lifted up his shirt to dry off his face, and I caught a glimpse of his stomach. My stomach flew into my throat when I saw his well-built abs. He caught me looking and I whipped my head around, turning bright red. He smirked to himself.

"What a great choice, Light!" Misa smiled and kissed me on the cheek. "I feel so refreshed!" she skipped off to the next ride and I hurriedly wiped my cheek off. Ryuzaki was still sopping wet, his normally swooshy hair draped over his face. My pants suddenly felt a little too tight, and I blushed even more. Ryuzaki noticed my growing bulge and told Misa we had to go to the bathroom. She frowned but didn't complain.

"Ryuzaki, what are you doing?" I asked as he led me into a bathroom stall and shut the door. "This is a public place!"

"Once again, Light Yagami is a coward," Ryuzaki raised his non-existent eyebrows. I growled and locked the stall door, my lips finding his in an instant. Skipping most of the foreplay, we both dropped our pants and boxers to our ankles. I spun Ryuzaki around so he was facing the wall. I put my fingers to his mouth and he sucked them eagerly. I put one in his entrance and found his sweet spot, causing him to put his hands against the wall for support. I added another finger and he groaned loudly. At three fingers he was panting and begging me for more.

"Mmm, Light," he pressed his forehead to the wall. I grabbed his hips and leaned into him, my erection pressing onto his back. He moaned again. Finally I entered him, thrusting away with vigor. He matched my pace, sweat mixing with the water from the log flume. I started thrusting faster, deeper, harder, practically pushing him into the wall.

"Oh God, L," I cried, reaching around him to grasp his length. He moaned with pleasure and I exploded with a final thrust, releasing myself inside of him. He came seconds after, breathing heavily. I rested my head against his back, still inside of him. It felt so good, so right, to be joined with him that way.

Eventually we remembered Misa and hurried to pull our pants up, throw some water on our faces to wash away the sweat (and the smell), and find her again.

"You guys were gone forever!" she scowled.

"Long line," I shrugged. Ryuzaki looked down, hiding his grin.

"Hey!" a hefty man came out of the bathroom, glaring at Ryuzaki and me. "Clean up after yourself, faggots! You idiots left your nasty skeet on the fucking floor!" he yelled before heading back in.

Ryuzaki and I both blushed, avoiding Misa's curious gaze.

"Now, what, exactly, did you do in the bathroom?"

1 Yes, I'm aware the "hmphed" isn't a word. But you're all smart enough to figure it out, aren't you??

REVIEW!!!!! (please)
