"…still don't know what that ghost, smoke thing was that killed Aiber and Wedy." Matsuda said as the hero team finished filling out the paperwork that went with the case declaring it officially 'closed'. "I mean, it came out of nowhere. Not that I'm complaining, it saved our lives after all."
Chief Yagami stacked the paper work into a pile ready for it to be moved to the archives. "It's was a manifestation of Light's abilities. L explained that as Light ranked a high level Level 5, he was able to manipulate his abilities in ways other Levels can only dream about, Light didn't know Wedy's name, never saw her face never came in contact with her, so he allowed his ability to manifest instead." Chief Yagami's voice held exhaustion felt by the whole team, he wearily rested his hands on the files. "He saved our lives," He added softly, turning from the sympathetic looks his team wrestling giving him. "You all have my permission to take some time off, I want you all working at the best of your abilities when we return for whatever our next case may be." He grabbed the files and left with words of farewell following him.

Whammy's was just as it was when he'd left all those days ago. Misty rain fell in sheets across the open expanse of the grassy grounds reflecting the warm glow of solar lights. L was hunkered down in an armchair, laptop pulled up on his lap displaying a rare picture of Light and himself at one of the cafes they had visited before they became an item. Movement from the bedroom drew his attention and he placed his laptop onto the floor as he hopped to his feet and hurried into the bedroom, the glow of the bathroom light leading him to his lover who was hunched over the sink with a towel pressed to his nose as it slowly became damp with blood.
"I'd been hoping that I wouldn't have to deal with this for much longer. It's been two weeks." Light's eyes were rimmed red and bloodshot, black bags hung under them and his whole form was haggard. "Can you grab a glass of water and my pills?" Light asked and L hurried to comply with his lover's request.
Filling a glass and grabbing the medication for Light's migraines, waiting until Light had finished swallowing them before leading his lover back into bed. He rushed back into the bathroom, picking up an empty container and a fresh towel, retuning to Light's side and replacing the bloody towel with the fresh one and sitting the container onto the floor.
"Do you need anything else?" He asked, turning off the bathroom light and turning the bedside lamp on instead, dimming it to its lowest setting as he recognized the symptoms of Light's migraines kicking in.
"No, imma, try and…" Light's words became an indistinguishable slur even as Light closed his eyes and winced in pain.
L gently carded his fingers through Light's soft hair, setting upon the bed in a position he knew he could hold for hours if needed. Watari had managed to completely heal Light that night at the Yellow Box, the effort had been draining due to the mass damage, but Watari was a high level Level 5 healer and he managed to bring Light back in peak condition. The migraines and nose bleeds were due to Light's use of his ability and could not be healed away leaving Light suffering through the effects of the backlash even two weeks later.
He'd chosen to sell his home and the stolen items found their way back to their original homes once L had asked Light to join him and Light had said 'yes', following L to England. Whenever Light had been up to it they spent their time exploring the country. Light moved and leaned over to bed retching violently into the bucket, bringing the towel back to his nose to try and stem the blood flow. L brushed Light's sweaty hair out of his eyes and placed a kiss on his forehead, more than content to spend the night with his recovering lover.

Light smothered a laugh as he watched L struggle into the suit Light had set aside for him, managing to turn what should have been an easy process into a monster effort. They were currently in France working on a serial arsonist case, the death toll was low but as it was the first case L would be taking since Light had joined him they agreed it would be an easy one to get back into the rhythm of things.
"Okay, stop, stop, stop." Light said in between bursts of laughter, laughing even harder at L's expression when he stripped of the offending garments and stood stark naked in the middle of the room. Light felt a swell of lust overcome him as he looked at his lover, they hadn't had sex since before Light had been taken and Light was sorely missing the contact. 'To hell with it.' He pounced upon his naked lover, kissing him harshly and encouraging L to kiss back. L's touches were hesitant, almost as though he expected Light to be suddenly made of glass. 'Damn it L, I'm fine.' Light paused mid kiss and quickly divested himself of his own clothing.
"Light, what are you doing?" L asked breathlessly, and though his hands rested lightly on Light's waist, his straining erection told Light that his attentions were not unwarranted.
"I want you to fuck me." He said simply and plainly, grounding down upon L and earning a groan in response. "Because I'm fine," He repeated, leaning down and kissing L again, grabbing a bottle of lube and a condom from his own suit pocket. "I've even started coming prepared." He dropped the items at L's side, kissing his way over L's ribs and down to his straining erection. His kissed the tip before swallowing it whole, L bucking up and gasping at the sensation and causing Light to chock slightly at the movement before holding L's hips down and varying his attention between sucking and licking the heavy manhood in his mouth.
Hands wrapped around stands of his hair and pulled him off of L with a loud 'pop', meeting L's awaiting mouth with a groan. The sound of a bottle opening him hand him spreading his legs even as he kneeled over top of L, breathing through the first finger as it breached his opening and began to mimicking what was soon to happen. One finger became two, then two became three along with the burn of being stretched, both L and he were breathing heavily as Light chased L's fingers every time they retreated, groaning in disappointment when they were removed and kissing L's neck even when the sound of aluminum tearing had him whimper in anticipation. The head of L's cock pushed through and with a groan Light pushed back to meet it earning a gasp from L.
He sat in L's lap, the pair of them reveling in the connection for the first time in weeks. L's length burning inside him and calling him to chase after the sensation of pleasure. Instead he held still, locking eyes with L's lust filled ones.
"I love you. I don't care if it's too early for that, I love you." He traced his fingers over L's chest and flicked L's dusty nipples earning a low gasp of approval, purposely looking away from L's eyes. Fingers gently cupped his face and he looked back up to meet L's gaze.
"I loved you since that night you chose to give your virginity to me." L confessed kissing Light chastely bringing a small smile to his face which was wiped off when his face went slack when L rolled his hips and pressed against Light's prostate.
Clenching down around L's length Light began to ride him, lifting and dropping in rapid succession even as L pushed up into him. Completing a downwards thrust, Light yelped in shock when L rolled them over so his back was resting on the carpet and L hooked his legs over his shoulders, drilling rapidly into Light causing him to arch up and groan as L continuously hit his prostate. His orgasm hit him out of nowhere, vision going white even as cum splattered onto his chest, riding it out when L finished with a low groan, the condom swelling inside of Light even as L dropped to rest on his arms. Light dropped his legs from L's shoulders, panting heavily as he tried to regain his breath. He groaned when L pulled out from him with a squelch, tying the condom and throwing it into the bin, lying down beside Light and pulling him into his arms, their sweaty bodies sticking together as sweat and cum cooled on their skin.
"I love you." Light repeated, eyes dropping when he felt L's fingers lightly brush over the collar he still wore after all this time.
"And I love you." L stated, hand moving away from the collar to card through Light's hair.

Fin.
The sequel; if it gets posted, will be called My Fight for no other reason than it just happened to be the name of the song I was listening to when thinking of a title – again, don't hold your breath, it wasn't supposed to exist in the first place.
