Misa cuddled Light closely as they traveled down the hallway; L not too far behind. The detective and the brown haired college student were still chained together and despite Misa's dismay, L still had to accompany them on their dates.
Misa gave the detective another glare from the corner of her eye, she wanted to spend Christmas alone with Light but now that pervert as she called him, had to ruin that. Besides that everything was exactly what Misa wanted. She went through it all in her mind making sure it was pretty much all perfect; there would be a nice fireplace for her and Light to snuggle in front of, they could open each other's gifts underneath the tinkle of the Christmas tree so perfectly decorated and the best part of all Misa set up a mistletoe just for the two of them so they could share a Christmas kiss. She almost squealed because of how excited she was to spend her first Christmas with Light.
Light on the other hand was not at all excited. He felt nothing towards Misa and there was no way he ever could. She just wasn't the right person for Light and he knew that all too well. He didn't have the heart to tell her but he wanted to be with someone more like him; someone as smart as him and with a strong sense of justice. Only one person appeared in Light's mind according to that description: L. Light blushed wildly and pushed the crazy thought out of his head. He couldn't love Ryuzaki or could he? The detective was always on his mind lately and Light couldn't always shake the thoughts away.
Light sighed; the only thing Ryuzaki seemed to love was sweets. He was eating a peppermint candy cane as they headed to Misa's room. That was the one thing L loved most about Christmas. The special treats like candy canes and gingerbread men. They were soon almost to Misa's large whole floored bedroom when Misa suddenly stopped in the door way of her room causing both L and Light to almost knock into her.
She immediately looked up mistletoe that hung above them all, looked back at Light and giggled.
"Oh look at that" She sang, "it's mistletoe! That means you have to kiss someone" she said referring to herself as she puckered her lips and closed her eyes waiting for Light to kiss her; a kiss that would never come.
Light was more focused on L to really care. He stared deeply into the detective's eyes only one crazy idea going through his mind; just kiss him. This was an opportunity for Light to L how he felt and he was going to take it. Light's stomach twisted and turned every which way and his heart beat faster until the point that Light thought it was about to burst out of his chest. He leaned in closer to Ryuzaki who failed to move at all. L just stared back into Light eyes totally lost in them. Light went in closet to L until his lips brushed softly against the detective's in a short
lived kiss.
It had sent a spark, a wave of heat spread between them as they touched. Light still tasted the sweet taste of L on his lips but he carved more. It wasn't enough. Light pressed his lips against L's passionately and the rest just faded away. They were the only two people in the world. They only saw each other.
They didn't even notice Misa when she finally opened her eyes and yelled at Ryuzaki for being such a prevent and for kissing her boyfriend. They didn't even notice when she ran out as fast as she could away from the new couple with tears down her face.
