I knew it!
Once his mind settled down a fraction, that was the first thing that flew through Light's head. Mocking him for taking the initiative to test his, now obviously false feelings, was L's plan's downfall. He just couldn't believe his luck. This just seemed too good to be true. He could hardly believe that the detective would put an end to whatever he had been trying to do, and so soon...
That bit of information gave him pause. Why would L give up a plan so easily? Just to mock him? That didn't sound like the man at all. Unless, somehow he was using Light's reaction to fuel another idea of his? How the hell would that be possible? He hadn't even came up with a reasonable idea as to why Ryuzaki kissed him in the first place! Great, now how was he supposed to think of a reason for why he had abandoned a plan that he had no reason for?
Light knew his eye had to be twitching in annoyance.
Pulling himself out of that train of thought, he looked down at L pinned underneath him. It was with a smile, albeit a none-too-friendly one, that he noticed the man's expression.
Solemn. And just almost defeated.
With a blink Light's retribution was replaced by confusion.
What was with that look L was giving him? What sort of trickery was he planning this time? All of this, this back and forth, these mind games, those thoughts, the physical fights, the uncertainty. It was all getting to him.
L was getting to him!
And Light just couldn't believe it. How could he let that detective get to him like this? Berating him and making him out to be some criminal. And not just anycriminal, the criminal! A mass murdering tyrant who thinks himself a god! How could L be so devious as to use Light's own feelings against him?! Did the man have any respect for him or anyone at all?!
Now shaking in rage, Light could only stare murder into the eyes of the detective still below him.
A/N: Sorry if anyone doesn't understand the beginning. Started this at 5am, with no sleep. To clarify, Light believes L's kissing him was indeed a plan (of what he doesn't know) after he mocked (asked about) him for being angry about kissing him in the last chapter. For any other questions, feel free to message me.
