Chapter16: (Don't) Spare me the details

"What did you do before you came to Japan? I overheard you and your father's conversation while I was looking for the vacuum."

"Well I lived in England."

Light rolled his eyes. "I caught that much. I mean, what did you work as?"

L gulped.

"I-I was a..."

An extremely loud thump interrupted the discussion and the two men jumped.

...

"What was that?" L's brows furrowed in confusion, looking over his lover's shoulder hopefully looking for the source of the noise. At least until his cheeks were grasped roughly by soft hands, his attention being brought straight back to his partner, who was slowly but surely losing patience with his raven haired manager.

"I'm not letting you leave until you tell me what you did, you never speak about England. What was there that was so goddamned traumatic!" An aura of fury surrounded the two, and Lawliet suddenly felt very, very, cold. Light's normally melted honey eyes were hard and crystallised and had almost formed the colour of solid amber.

Lawliet gulped. He really didn't like this side of Light. It was quite terrifying.

"Look Light, there's nothing to really tell." Narrowed eyes bore through the older man's head.

"Stop lying. I want to know!"

L's face heated up and he moved his gaze to a blank area on the wall. He really wished that he could have had a better excuse than just the loud, consistent pounding that was slowly being overridden by panicked shouts.

"Someone sounds like their dying!" Lawliet protested weakly.

"No one will die if you tell me what you did!"

A loud screech of pain erupted down the hallway.

And then there was nothing.

Light, despite his taller stature was pushed away and L ran as quickly as his long legs would take him. He was met with his bedroom, completely torn apart, his pillows strewn across the room, his comforter torn and two unconscious bodies on the floor.

Matt and Mello were lying over each other, Mello's half open eyes glazed and unseeing while Matt lay on the ground, his nose dribbling blood slowly.

And Near stood over them, wincing as he shook his hand in pain. His silver eyes looked hurt and he pouted towards L.

"They tried to assault me." He whined softly.

"Who tried to assault you Nate?" Lawliet jumped as he heard Watari's voice, soft but powerful with authority in his ear.

With small, shuffling footsteps the albino cautiously poked the redhead's nose gently. There was a squeal of pain and another loud thunk on the ground as Near fell on his butt and grasped his injured toe in shock. Matt's body writhed under Mello's as he tried to grab the shocked albino's foot again.

"H-he bit me!" Near cried as he pulled his hand away to find blood on his palm. Matt snarled and thumped his head on the carpet in anger.

"He slept with Mello!" The gamer protested heatedly, snapping his jaw towards the young boy again, who quickly shuffled away, fear clouding Near's vision.

L could hear another voice in his ear, a more familiar once. He turned his head expectantly to see his auburn haired lover frowning and rubbing his chin. A light flickered behind his eyes suddenly indicated that Light had had a thought.

"When did you sleep with Mello?" Light asked curiously. L sighed and rubbed at the bridge of his nose. Leave it to his boyfriend to ask that.

Near blinked, apparently thinking about it as his bloodied hand began to twirl his snow white hair.

"At least a year and six months ago the first time, and the eighth and last time about two weeks prior to you're leaving for Japan." The boy smiled in satisfaction, seeming happy as he thought the statistics through again. Light made a small noise of surprise, obviously taken aback that the boy had kept track.

Matt whimpered again.

"Matt?" Light spoke again, obviously not caring that the teen was emotionally distraught and furious.

"What the fuck do you want...?"

Light pouted slightly. He utterly hated being spoken to like that. But he would take the brunt from a nineteen year old redhead than his homophobic father any day.

"You might want to clean your nose. It's bleeding." Matt's hand rose to his nose and wiped it absentmindedly. That brought a more pressing question to mind...

"How did you two get knocked out?" Light asked as he shot a hateful glare at the white haired boy who hissed as he tended to his toe. "I very highly doubt that Nate knocked you out." L added helpfully. Matt's face reddened sheepishly.

"Uh well...I kind of...um..."

"Matt tried to attack me, and Mello so kindly tried to stop him. Unfortunately," a smug smirk crossed Nate's pale face. "Both of their heads collided after I pushed Matt away." He shrugged humbly as he rubbed his still bloodied hand.

'There is no way to win this fight.' L thought as he left the teenagers alone. He honestly didn't feel up to dealing with the raging testosterone at the moment. At least until he felt his lover's familiar hands grab onto his arm and twirl his body around. Light's eyes stared expectantly at the older man, and when he received no reply, let go of the baggy white shirt and instead found comfort in sliding his hands up the shirt. L gasped in surprise when Light's long fingers started to roll his left nipple. He moaned into the touch and he felt a familiar urgency to press his lips against Light's.

Light happily returned Lawliet's pressing kiss and opened his mouth to accommodate his partners and pushed his raven haired lover into the wall, until he pressed his strong hands into L's chest.

"Not here." Light frowned down at his lover, who was blinking stupidly. "We are in the hallway, remember?"

The hallway indeed. It was a desperate few moments between the two as they looked around for a room to 'accommodate' themselves in. L's room was still taken by a smug albino, a near-concussed redhead and an unconscious blonde, who was being attended to by Watari.

"We could always use the bathroom?" Light suggested eagerly, but closed his mouth after obvious disapproval radiated from the other man.

There was only one more room. The guest room. L grasped Light's hand quickly and dragged him to the unused room and kicked open the door quickly.

Light moaned as he was pushed onto the bed, arching into Lawliet's soft touch as the older man dipped his long fingers under the popstar's waistband. A devilish grin crossed L's porcelain face as he discarded Light's pants completely, throwing then to god-knows-where in some hidden corner of the room. L hurriedly pressed his lips against Light's, who parted his lips willingly and slid his eyes shut as he got lost in the moment of L's warm tongue brushing over his own. Spidery fingers entangled themselves in Light's tie, which Light had only worn to make a decent impression on Watari.

It in all honesty just got in the way when it got to the 'good' things. L smirked in victory as he threw away the silky red fabric and began unbuttoning Light's white shirt. Light allowed this as he slid L's baggy shirt over the mass of black hair on his lover's head. He grinned when he saw L straighten his body, as if to show off his chest. He had to stifle a laugh as L raised his eyebrows and pouted.

A loud bang echoed through the apartment again, but the two were much to occupied to bother with it. If the kids were going to kill themselves, then so be it. It wasn't going to get in the way of them having sex.

At least until the door flew open.

"LIGHT!" Light sat up immediately, causing Lawliet to fall off him. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!"

Light just stared ahead, his eyes wide like a deer in headlights.

L watched the fiasco unravel before him. Soichiro stormed into the room furiously grabbing his son's arm and began to pull him out of the room. Light protested fiercely and grabbed a pillow from the ground and used it to cover his tight white briefs from view.

"What the hell are you doing here Dad!" Light cried out as he searched for his pants. L cringed as Soichiro's fury turned to him.

"YOU!" The older man pointed, and L had to resist rolling his eyes. L was about to reply when Light cut him off.

"Dad how did you get here?" A smirk crossed the older man's wrinkled face as he pulled a small blue book from his back pocket and the auburn haired teen visibly paled.

"My address book? How did you get that?" The teen asked, a panicked look crossing his features.

"You left your apartment door unlocked Light. I recognised your manager," Soichiro shot another dirty look at the still half naked man on the bed. "and flicked through the book until I found the name Lawliet surrounded by hearts."

"You surrounded my name with hearts?" L laughed incredulously and held onto his stomach as light's face went the colour of a beetroot. Soichiro's eyes narrowed again and L stopped laughing immediately.

There was a heavy silence between the three men until the raven haired man ran his hands through the unruly mess on his head. He stood up, quickly grabbing his shirt and slipping it over his head, inside out. He could almost hear Light's brain howling in protest.

"Mr Yagami, is it a fair question to ask how you found out about myself and your sons relationship?" Lawliet knew exactly how the ageing man had found out, but he thought it would be fair to let the man rant about it before he kicked him out. It did seem unfair to kick him out now as all it would create is a broken window or two, and a very hefty bill being sent to the Yagami household.

A dark shadow seemed to creep through the Chief's eyes before he flew into a rage.

"You and Light were on the front of a popular magazine having-having..." there was a huge intake of breath before the sentence continued. "with you two having sex!"

Light hung his head, dropping the pillow to the ground and hiding his face. Lawliet had to resist the urge to burst out laughing again.

"And is that really a crime?" Light stared at his boyfriend in horror. A vein on Soichiro's forehead was teetering on the point of an explosion.

"Of course it's a crime!"

"Well it is on mine and Light's behalf, it is a terrible invasion of our privacy;" L tsked unhappily. "But it gives you no excuse to barge into my apartment with malicious intents."

"I-I had no malicious-"

"You are off duty, no?"

"W-well yes bu-"

"And I believe that having a gun on your person while off duty is not acceptable?"

It was an amazing show of bravery in Light's eyes the way that his boyfriend stood up to his father, not avoiding the fact that his father was the chief of police and also had a gun on him. It was nothing short of amazing.

And what astounded the teen even more was the rational way his father was taking the show of defiance. He only looked like he was going to mutilate Lawliet a little bit.

Soichiro sighed heavily, rubbing his eyes under his glasses roughly.

It took a few moments for the man to compose himself, before he spoke softly.

"I do not approve of this r-relationship on any level." His tone was so defeated that his son almost patted his hand with sympathy. Almost.

L waved a hand in dismissal. "You don't have to. Honestly, we don't care if you do or not."

Soichiro's mouth hung open before his arms began to flail ridiculously and he stormed from the room, a large crash escaping the kitchen before the front door slammed.

"That was rather disturbing." Light jumped and grasped at his chest at the new voice, his eyes wide and staring at the hallway. Near smiled and entered, his small Lego man clasped in his hand.

"I just thought that I should tell you that Miheal has woken up. And that Mail might ask you where I am once he has finished tending to Miheal. I'd appreciate it if you did not tell him that I spoke to you, if that's fine?" Near turned to leave before he looked at the blushing auburn haired teen and poked him in the stomach.

"Also Mr Yagami, you seem to have put on a few kilograms and I think it could be from your serious Daddy issues."

As Near left L sighed and began to remake his father's bed. Light rolled his eyes and slid his long arms around his lover's thin waist and breathed into his ear.

"L just because my father is a wackjob, doesn't mean that you can't tell me what your previous job was."

L pulled away quickly before he slipped into the kitchen, ignoring the broken plates on the tiles, and flung the refrigerator open and began stuffing himself with cake.

Sometimes he really hated Light.

...

Alrighty guys, there is a really good reason to why I haven't announced L's previous occupation.

Know why?

Because I don't know myself. So I decided, the readers can have some creative control.

So I have a new competition:

Name L's previous profession!

Leave a review with your suggestion, and the best submission wins a mention in the next five chapters, and a story-changing amount of control.

(I mean with the job, not willy-nilly suggestions of change.)

I will notify the winner before the release of the revealing chapter!

And also don't forget about the one-shot competition!

HUGE THANKS FROM:
