Chapter 8:

Think sexy, like whipped cream and towels.

Light's gaze was embarrassing. It was almost unbearable sitting and eating a full lunch with him. But Lawliet knew that if he left now, his job would be in jeopardy along with any chance of working in Japan.

'Maybe I should consider going back to England after all...'

As L nibbled on his strawberry an odd notion came to his mind.

"Hey Light?"

Light looked up from his lemon water quickly.

"Yeah?"

"You were blind drunk last night when it all happened right?" The teen nodded slowly.

L lowered his head to look at his half eaten cake.

"Then how do you remember that you erm..." Light burst into hysterical laughter causing not just L to jump, but even made one of the waitresses drop her order.

"As you have kindly pointed out before Lawliet, it isn't like I don't drink that much. I can handle my alcohol rather well. Well enough that my rational mind still works! Fufufu..." Light sipped his drink and gnawed on the small lemon wedge that had been placed on the side of his cup.

L sat gobsmacked. He was only trying to see how Light had managed to remember what had happened. But now he finds out that it wasn't just the alcohol doing the molesting? It was plainly all of Light's will!

"S-so you mean to tell me that...you wanted all of that to happen?"

"Think what you like. Because I know that you will lie in bed tonight, thinking this conversation over and over, trying to make sense of it all. Isn't that about right?"

"...No."

"Don't lie to me. I know how you work. You're the smart and mysterious type. So clever, with just an air of anonymity which attracts everybody to you. I on the other hand, am the clever and social type, the one that everybody wants to hate but cannot help but being taken under my wing with my charm."

"You're just a snob."

"Yeah. Pretty much."

There was a sudden silence between the two, and the rest of the patrons turned back to their foods. It was frustrating none the less. Light had planned all of this! The spoilt teen with no concern for anybody but himself, had pretty much just set his manager up!

Well he had to be given credit for it. The kid was intelligent. Wow.

'I think hell must have just frozen over.'

"Light are you saying what I think you are?"

The teen winked. "I shall not tell. You figure it out you smart cookie."

"Smart cookie?"

"Yeah. Smart...crumbly...cookie."

"...Miss can we have the check now?" L asked desperately as he grasped on a passing waitresses' sleave.

Light scowled and waved his hand, clearly annoyed.

L placed his money down on the table quickly.

"We're going Light. Get in the car."

"Will you at least listen to me?"

"Depends on what you have to say." Lawliet flicked his black hair out of his eyes as he tried to start the car to no avail.

Light rubbed his temple and watched he frustrated man out of the corner of his eyes.

"Will you come to my place then?"

"To drop you off, yes."

"No I mean for you to come and talk. Obviously me kissing you-" L flinched as the words were spoken so bluntly."-affected you to such an extent that you have been traumatised. Come back to my place and I guess we will have to talk."

"..." L grumble inaudibly as the car roared to life. He turned into the street and began his way to Light's apartment.

The teen smiled smugly.

'Everything is going to plan...'

...

"Well we need to talk." Light stated frankly and L rolled his eyes.

"Well thank you for pointing out the obvious." Light frowned as he motioned for his manager to sit on the plump sofa. He hesitated before he gave in and sat. Light smiled in relief. He could only encourage somebody so much.

"Light, are you going to fire me?"

"Hmm? Why in the world would I want to fire you?"

"Because every single time I've been let off everybody always started the sentence off with 'We need to talk.'" L shuffled his feet nervously. No matter how much he needed to lose the job, Light would be sure to screw him around and make sure that he would never work again.

A soft chuckle fell from Light's lips as he watched L in amusement. He was going to have a hell of a lot of fun with this! "Oh I wouldn't let you go! You're an awesome manager. I won't let anybody else take you away from me."

Lawliet's obsidian eyes widened in surprise. Light was sounding awfully possessive. Almost like he thought...

"You don't own me Light. Simple as that."

"I beg to differ. And I haven't stopped yet. You value your life in Japan an awful lot, right?" L nodded slowly in reply. A sly grin spread on Light's face. "And you would do anything to keep your job right?"

'Ah.' L thought as his mental light bulb flickered to life 'He does want to own me.'

"What do you want me to do." A loud sigh of defeat escaped from L as his temples began to throb. He was already developing a migraine.

"I have a few requests. Like I need you to pick up a suit for me, and bring it back here for me. I'll try and figure something else out for you to do for me, is that fine?"

"Yeah that's fine. I'll go and pick it up now. I'll see you soon."

"Yeah. Bye."

...

The shop that the suit sat at was very fancy. So fancy that L was surprised that even Light would shop there. The man at the cashier smiled his very white, very plastic smile, the woman in the pick-up area grinned and looked him up as she slowly undressed him with her eyes. Even the man who ran the elevator grinned just a little bit too much.

It kind of felt like the exact moment in a horror movie where the main character wandered into the wrong room where the mass murderer was waiting.

Ooh. Scary.

The suit itself was very nice, its dark gray stitching blending in nicely with the soft gray body. It was such a shame it would have clashed with L's hair. Oh the humanity.

...

Lawliet had always found that Light had convenient timing, especially when it was really inconvenient. Within moments of leaving the fancy department store a text message rang from his phone.

'I can't wait for you to shut me up oh baby you like badass! I can't wait for you to shut me up, shut it up!'

He wanted to ignore it. He just wanted to collect the stupid suit, go back to Light's house, and eventually return to his own and go to sleep. But no.

'Hi Lawliet its Light here! I need you go and buy me some salad from the shops. Any would do. Just don't get any with meat.

Thanks! Light XX'

L would have been shocked by the two X's on the end of the message if he hadn't of known that Light sends everybody messages with them on the end. Strange? Nah. Why does he do it? Who cares? It's Light remember?

So Lawliet stopped by the shops and bought salad. Technically he just bought lettuce and tomatoes. Oh well. Less is more when it comes to Light anyway.

...

"I got you your stupid suit and your salad." Lawliet yelled as he opened the door, is arms pack with random knick-knacks that Light had conveniently forgotten to mention. "Hello? Light! I got your crap!" a loud thud from the kitchen startled the dark haired man as he shut the door. It was followed by a smash and a yelp. L dropped his baggage and sprinted towards the kitchen.

"Shit Light are you oka-" he began as he was presented with absolute chaos. Light must have just gotten out of the bath, as his muscular chest was unclothed and e only had a towel wrapped around his toned grinned sheepishly as Lawliet's jaw hung open limply. Before L could even form a sentence, Light spoke.

"I had a case of the munchies. I felt like something sweet."

"Ahhuh. And that's why you asked me to get you salad? Oh and not to mention the fact that you decided to pig out right after washing yourself?"

"You took too long. And I wanted something nice and sweet to nibble on."

"Says the man who cried that he was nothing but blubber on the first day I worked for him."

"Get over it. Now will you help me up? I'll clean it up later." L mumbled grouchily under his breath as he extended his hand out to clasp with Light's, which was completely smothered with the whipped cream. On the first attempt, both of the hands just slipped from the other's grasp.

Both men grunted as Light slipped back down to the floor.

"Try again?" L said as Light tenderly rubbed his backside.

"Yes. C'mon." Light lifted his arms back up, clenching them in an attempt to coax L to grab them.

"We will count together, okay?" L said as he grabbed onto Light.

They began to count in unison. "Alright. One-" The both tightened their grips. "-Two-" Lawliet bent over a little bit so he would have more strength to pull the teen up. "And three!" They both yelled. Light tried to lift himself up, and L tried his hardest to keep a decent grip.

The cream wasn't of any help at all.

Especially when both of the men lost their footing and slipped. Light on his back and Lawliet sprawled over him.

"Oh shi-!" L cried as he realised what was happening. Light made a strangled noise of shock as the man on top of him tried to pry himself up and fell down again on the slippery surface, L's hands covered in the white froth and skidding on Light's muscular chest. Light's face reddened as L became paralysed in shock.

'What the hell am I supposed to do!' L's mind went into overdrive. This was exactly what he feared...right? He knew that everything that had been happening lately was screwing with his head big time. Light Yagami was the cause of every single problem in his life! He didn't like how Light had kissed him in the taxi, did he? He didn't like being sprawled over Light's firm chest right?

Both men lay frozen together, unable to move.

Light had no idea what to do. He had his plan, and now that his plan was so abruptly in action he hadn't a clue how to continue it!

Here he was, his manager lying on top of him, placed very seductively over his body, and he didn't know what to do!

"I-I-I..." L spluttered wordlessly. He realised slowly that he really didn't want to move from his position on top of his employer.

'Oh my god! Am I that sex deprived that I wouldn't mind-No!' Lawliet concluded and shook his head roughly. He was not turned on by this!

Well, not that much anyway.

An evil thought flickered through Light's mind at the exact moment that he felt L suddenly press into him. Accidently of course, but none the less, he still pressed hard enough.

'Aha! Lawliet's trying to pull away!'

"Stop moving right now Lawliet." Light whispered sternly. L did. Light could feel little shivers radiate from L's legs.

"Well you still want your job right Lawliet?"

Lawliet nodded slowly in reply. He was terrified of what his employer was going to as of him.

"Then I have something that I want you to do."

"What." He didn't even ask. He just spoke monotonously in an effort to keep his head steady and unclouded.

The head with the thinking brain.

"I want you to kiss me. You can walk away, but you know what will happen, ne?" Light's lips brushed against the other earlobe, his hot breath tickling his neck.

"W-what!"

"You heard me. So what are you going to do?" A malicious smile spread over the handsome teenagers face, eagerly awaiting the answer. It didn't matter which way it went. He would get what he wanted, no matter the cost.

"..."

"Your answer Lawliet?"

"..."

"C'mon. What's your answer?"

"Fine."

"Hmm? What was that?"

L wrapped his arms around the back of Light's head and mashed their lips together. After recovering from the initial shock, Light happily followed Lawliet's lead, even running his manicured fingers through the mass of unruly black hair that adorned his managers head.

Any nervousness Lawliet had been showing melted at that point, and he leaned into the kiss a small moan escaping him as Light's tongue delved into his mouth. Both men fought for dominance, both as unwilling as each other to let the opportunity slip from between their fingers. Light secretly revealed in the discovery of somebody who was as reluctant as himself when it came to the fight for dominance.

Oh was he going to take advantage of that.

L arched up as Light mouth once more descended on his, his tongue probeing into his mouth once more, its touch hot and insistent in his mouth. L brought his arms around Light to pull him closer and finally let out a groan as Light broke the kiss, his mouth moving to worry at his neck. He gazed with unfocused eyes at the tiles across the room a small smile creeping across his face. Then his eyes slipped closed as one of Light's hands moved to caress up his chest.

Every now and again small pieces of L's rational mind broke through.

'Why are you getting so into this! It was to shut him up not make it worse-'

"Nngg!" Light moaned as Lawliet's crotch rubbed against his own.

'and I had even thought of not coming to work today.'

Suddenly as Light began to fumble with L's jeans, he pulled away.

"Lawliet we can't do this."

"What?"

"I think that we might want to stop it here. Maybe if the time comes around again then we could, but not right now okay?" Light's face reddened again.

Lawliet was gobsmacked. Light had been so aggravating! How could he actually make Lawliet feel attracte-

No. He wasn't attracted to Light! No! It was just...hormones? He wasn't an adolescent anymore. He shouldn't just try to bed everybody who touches him!

"Light I think that I might go...home."

"Yeah that might be a good idea...don't come into work tomorrow." Light yawned and rubbed his eyes.

L looked at the other in fear.

"Am I f-"

"No, I just think that you have to sort some stuff out. Like with your friend Matt. And we need to think about...us."

"Oh yeah...bye."

...

"Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid!" An indent was beginning to form in the wall where L's head repeatedly smacked into it. It was beginning to hurt. A lot.

"Why in the fuck would I kiss him! And rub against him! This time last night I was going mad over how he did the same thing! How could I do it!" His voice rose louder and louder until it was almost a yell. There was no way that he was going to...do it again?

But...he wanted to.

'I think that bed sounds like a good idea now. I'm obviously delusional...' L took a glass of water and two sleeping tablets. He didn't trust himself to go to his bed wide awake.

God knows what he might do.

...

Light was grinning madly as he cleaned the mess on his floor. His plan went perfectly.

Lawliet Wammy would have to be the most conflicted person in the world right now. Light sang a song quietly to himself

"For the record my lover, I couldn't hold out much longer, so whaddya say when the calling calls?" His voice rose to a bravado and he threw his hands in the air singing happily.

'Lawliet Wammy might think that he is the toughest person on Earth. But I know how he works. In fact, I know that he would have gone straight to bed and probably continued what he hoped to do to me tonight.' Light sniggered and continued drying the floor.

"Oh Mr Lawliet, we will have a hell of a lot of fun."

'Let's see what you think about tomorrow on your day off now, ne?'

...

Is everybody happy with the pace of the story? If not leave your suggestions! I'd be happy to place in new ideas!

Thank you teB360 for giving me fantastic ideas for the coming chapters!

Ohh~ and can I just say that when Light suddenly breaks into song like in this chapter, they are normally my own lyrics from random songs that I have written. If they are not, I will give the performers their given credit.

(Lawliet's ringtone: Shut me up by Mindless self indulgence)
