1...2...3...4...Tell me that you love me more.
"Ryuuzaki, you've been rather quiet about Kira lately," the boy and possible mass murderer Light commented to the man with the wild hair. "Have you been depressed?"
"I have been feeling rather unmotivated, Light-kun," L answered, piling up little marshmallow atop of one another. Light smirked and sat down on the chair next to him.
"And why would that be?" he asked.
"Good morning!" came the light and sing song voice of the Gothic Idol. L did not turn to look at her and she did not acknowledge him.
5...6...7...8...Tell me he's the one you hate.
"Light-kun," she cooed and wrapped her arms around the hesistant teen. "Mou, Misa Misa is so happy to see you! You've been so busy lately!"
She was gesturing her words. Again, she was lying.
"Someone has to," Light responded grudgingly. "Ryuuzaki here has lost any motivation."
Misa's blue eyes forced themselves to look at the gangly man who was sitting in his own peculiar style. She cleared her thaot and plastered another smile on her face.
"Has Ryuuzaki-san lost interest?" she asked rather politely. L turned to look at her and grinned.
"Other things have piqued my interests," he shrugged. Light only looked confused and Misa's face twisted into one of rage, embarassment ...and flattery.
Matsuda-san then came in and called for the boy. He excused himself and left a smug L and a nervous Misa alone. She realized her dilemma.
"You stay where you are, pervert!" she cried, inching away from him.
L only looked confused. He was mocking her.
"Why Misa-san?" The corners of his mouth twitched. Misa only flushed.
"You think horrible thoughts involving Misa Misa!" she accused. L only shook his head and let out a small chuckle.
"Any thought I have of Misa-san is far from horrible."
Whether or not that implied anything sexual or romantic, Misa couldn't help but be stammered by such a response. No one had ever said such words to her before. Worse, Light never even came close to romancing her the way L did. It was as if he was the only one in the world who saw her for who she really was; a woman in search for love.
And he was the man willing enough to give it.
1...2...3...4...Tell me that you love me more.
"Ryu...Is...Is Ruuzaki-san...in love with Misa Misa?" her voice was small. The words came out in a whisper. L only jumped from his seat and grabbed her by her shoulder, propelling her up to her feet.
Then his lips took hers in a passionate kiss.
Tell me that you love me more...
