((I'm going to try to make this chapter a long one. Again, please tell me how you think the story is progressing. I would love more reviews and I'm glad your enjoying this story as it keep going. :) ))

L kept staring at the moniter like it was the only thing he saw. It was like he was oppsessed watching Light. He sighed then looked at the bowl of ice cream though it looked like pink soup. He looked around again like he was paranoid then went to the kitchen grabbing two bowls and filling them with strawberry ice cream. He walked to Light's cell. Light looking like he was already dead though he looked up slowly and blinked as he saw L with the two bowls of ice cream.

"What are you doing?" Light asked looking confused.

"Giving you a bowl of ice cream. What else does it look like?" L asked putting the bowl through the slot where inamtes got their trays. Light took the bowl. It was rather stange of L to do something like this, but he was strange and it was one reason Light liked him. L then sat in his crouched position and ate a bit slower than normal. Light ate to. He hadn't eaten anything for two days. They both sat silent eating ice cream. L taking his figure and taking the rest of the melted ice cream that was on the egdes of the bowl and licking them.

"Thats rather kiddish you know." Light said finally.

"Being a bit kiddish isn't a bad thing." L said giving Light a small smile.

Light blushed a bit.

"Why did you come here?" Light asked.

L glanced away a bit putting his thumb to his lips.

"Tell me L." Light said.

"You've grown on me Light. I don't know how, but you did."

"How do you mean grown?"

L paused a bit before answering him.

"I mean...I love you to."

L said finally to him. Light's eyes widened. L's words gave him joy. He couldn't say anything in reply. Ryuk then came to Light's side. They had almost forgot about the Shinigami.

"Is Light going to die?" Ryuk asked somewhat ruining the moment.

Light looked up at him then down. Before he thought L didn't care for him. Thought he was just another criminal he had brought to justice. Which made him not very much care about if he died or not. He had nothing going for him anyway until L said those three words. Now he really didn't want to die. Knowing L liked him to changed a lot of things. Now he was afraid of dying.

L looked down to. He didn't want to lose Light, but they were on opposite sides of the law. He didn't even want to begin to think of Light being dead. He didn't reply to Ryuk. Though Ryuk chuckled at their troubles. Though instead of saying something to down them more, it gave them just a spark of hope.

"Instead of wallowing about it why not try to come up with something so Light wouldn't die. You two are smart enough to do something about Light dying aren't you?" Ryuk said almost saying the last words like an insult.

Light and L then looked at each other.

"That kind of seems hard to do though." Light said.

"Maybe, but I'm willing to risk it."

"Really?" Light asked him. He didn't even think it was possible for L to go against the justice system.

L nodded.

"I don't want to lose you, Light. I don't care if its right or wrong to get you out of here, I just want you to be safe and with me."

Light blinked, blushing a dark red. Who knew L could say something like that. It meant a lot to him that he was willing to go against justice just for him. Then Ryuk spoke again.

"Uh L? Could you go get me an apple?" Ryuk asked. His arms and legs already starting to twist.

L looked at him then at Light.

"Now I get it." L said. He got up and went to the kitchen finding an apple much to his surprise. He walked back to the cell and gave the apple to Ryuk who began muching on it immeidatly.

"So shall we begin?" L asked.

And so the two started to discuss a plan while Ryuk's muching was in the background.
