Smack! Once again L had said something to upset Bee and he was punched into the floor. L was beginning to get fed up. Bee and her best friend Aero had only been here two days, and he had been punched by Bee on multiple occasions.
"Could you please refrain from doing that long enough for me to acually get some work done?" L said in an irritated tone while rubbing his aching jaw. "You said you were here to help, not beat the crap out of me. Poor Aero has been doing most of your share of the work, because you spend most of your time beating me up, which I might remind you, I have done nothing to deserve."
Bee just glared at the detective, and took her seat at the computer farthest from L and closest to Light. Bee had recently been hanging around Light quiet often. You could always see the two talking or eating next to each other during breaks. This has put Aero and L both on edge. Aero, too, believed that Light was Kira, based off all the facts, it seemed pretty logical.
It was finally noon and that meant it was time for a lunch break. Light stopped typing on his computer, stretched his arms behind his head, and turned his head to talk to Bee. "How do you like it in Japan so far, Bee?" Light inquired.
"I'm not sure, L hasn't allowed me out of the building," she responded, her eye twitching irritably.
"Well maybe he'd let you leave if you, say...would like to go out on a date with me?" Light suggested, looking at his computer screen. When he turned back to see Bee's expression, he saw L glaring daggers at him over Bee's shoulder. The detective sat up-right in his chair like he was about to pounce on the auburn-haired teen. Light felt another ice cold gaze, and in his peripherals, saw the tip of Aero's eyes twitching in annoyance much like Bee's.
"Did you just ask me out?" Bee questioned with a slight smile, not noticing her friends disapproving reactions.
"That depends, is it okay if I did?" Light implied in a suggestive tone, smirking.
Bee giggled at Light's attempt to be suave and nodded her head. "Yes, of course it is. I would love to go out on a date with you, Light."
Light grinned slightly, stood from his seat, and back away slowly. "Good. H-how's tomorrow at 6?" Suddenly, he felt uneasy.
"That's fine," Bee replied with a confused expression, still oblivious to her friends glowering the teen down.
"I'm gonna go get some lunch. You want anything?" Light asked hesitantly.
"A jar of peanutbutter is fine." Light left to the kitchen as quickly as he could, not paying Bee's strange request any mind. As soon as Light was out the room, L jumped into his seat and gave Bee a stern and very serious look along with Aero who hovered by the girl.
"What did I tell you about Light? He's Kira!" Aero hissed, keeping her voice down, as not to alarm the boy's father of her thoughts about his son.
"No, he's not," Bee retaliated defensively, sticking her toung out.
"Bee, listen to Aero. All evidence leads to him, and I also don't want to see him break your heart," L explained.
"Oh, like you did?" Bee snapped. L was taken back by the comment. He'd may have not loved Bee, but he still cared for the girl, and didn't want to see her hurt any more than she already was.
"Aero, help me out here," L pleaded to the black-haired girl, but she didn't respond. She was caught in the trance that was Bee's puppy dog eyes. Those eyes that broke through her defense. "Oh, Bee, don't make that face at us," L said, trying to resist the adorable look.
"May I please go on a date with Light? Please L? Please Aero?" Bee begged, making her already animated eyes larger and sparkly. It distracted their trains of thought.
Aero and L looked away at the same time and sighed. "I guess one date won't hurt. Right, L?" questioned Aero.
"I guess so...but we'll be there as well, monitering, " L said.
"What? You can't do that! That's an invasion of privacy!" Bee screeched. Luckily the others left the building for lunch so no one overheard.
"Invasion of privacy? Like how you barged into my headquarters without my consent?" L retorted.
Bee blanched, feeling guilty about the true statement. He was right, but she was too stubborn to admit it.
"Fine," she said reluctantly, "but you can only monitor me through camera."
"And bugs," Aero slipped in resolutely.
Bee huffed. "Alright!"
L and Aero dispersed back into their original spots a second before Light came back in with food. L and Aero were casual as usual, but Bee seemed less happy, pouting.
Light sat down in his seat, appraising Bee curiously. He handed her the jar of peanutbutter. "What's wrong?" he asked. His gaze flitted back to L and the grumpy girl.
Bee weighed the jar in her hand and sighed, opening the container. "Nothing. I'm just hungry."
"I think the dinner date will be good for you tomorrow," commented Light in a hushed voice.
Too bad the auburn didn't know how good could it get with two spies on his tail.
