Chapter 14
They followed their nautical butler down into what turned out to be a rather spacious main room, there was a large, circular cream colored leather couch in front of which was a large table which appeared to be mahogany, a small bar to the right of it, and large screen television in front. There were leather chairs and to the right of the large couch was a table with two large leather seats on either side that could seat at four or more. Behind the bar was a beautifully draped table on which were several different types of hors devours, wine and two glasses.
"Further on this way," the butler was saying as he walked past them, "a full bathroom with a shower and a full bedroom available for your use." L tried to ignore the sideways leer from Light as he looked into the bedroom but he couldn't stop the grin.
"We will begin cruising along the bay in just a few moments, you can enjoy the cruise from inside the cabin here and also enjoy the panoramic view from here, or you can go up on deck and enjoy it from there at any time. We will stop above the Magic Kingdom when it is time for the Wishes fireworks spectacular and you may also watch from the deck or from here as well. The music from the show will be piped aboard so you won't miss a thing," he poured them both glasses of wine and then smiled, "I am going to check on your dinner, please don't hesitate to call if you need something before I return," nodding towards an intercom.
"This is pretty amazing," Light said looking around after they were alone, "How long do we have to enjoy?"
"It is open ended, but technically we have it for the entire evening if we wish, at least until 11:00 p.m." L answered kicking off his sneakers, "The butler is only here during dinner and then he will either stay with the captain or perhaps be returned to the dock. In any case, he is no longer obligated to us after dinner."
"Oh really?", Light said gathering the detective in his arms and holding him close, "Then we'll be alone?" L nodded smiling, his hand going into Light's hair.
"For a couple of hours after the fireworks at least, just cruising along this bay," he answered.
"Oh I think I'm going to enjoy this a great deal," Light answered bringing his lips to gently touch L's and then realized that L's gaze was past him and trained on the large dish of chocolate covered strawberries on the table, "Those strawberries more interesting that I am?" he asked feigning hurt and L snorted at him.
"Don't be ridiculous, I'm just hungry," he said kissing him quickly and just as quickly moving towards the table. Knowing exactly how much L had already put away that day Light found it hard to believe he could put more inside that thin frame of his and not be sick.
He followed him to the table and perused the hors devours: a platter of fresh fruit and an assortment of cheeses with crackers, at least a dozen chocolate covered strawberries, proscuitto wrapped breadsticks and red pepper hummus with pita chips. He reached for one of the breadsticks and took a bite.
"What?" he asked as L peered at him, a finger at his lips.
"What do you think of it? I tried to pick things that you would enjoy." He asked and Light looked surprise.
"You chose the food?" he asked and L nodded.
"They told me what was available and I picked."
"L these are delicious and it all looks great. Didn't know you had it in you." He said grinning and enjoyed watching that nose raise into the air.
"When will you realize there is more to me than you know," he stated reaching for what seemed to Light an alarming large chocolate dipped strawberry. Before he could answer he felt the soft movements of the yacht beginning to move away from the dock. He went to the window and watched as the dock and the Grand Floridian Resort began to fall behind as they moved out into the bay. L walked next to him and watched as well, his hand reaching for Light's and squeezing it.
"Light, I have to tell you that this trip is turning out to be so much more than I expected it to be, and I thought I should surprise you for a change." Light leaned forward and kissed him, tasting the combination of chocolate, strawberries and wine and finding it incredibly intoxicating as those flavors would forever mean L to him.
"That makes me really happy to hear," he told him and was about to kiss him again when they heard the butler coming back.
"As you can tell we are underway," he said happily picking up the wine bottle and refilling their glasses, "Your meal is onboard and ready for whenever you wish it." He added and L nodded.
"Thank you. You may bring it down at any time and we will require another bottle of wine," he said and the butler nodded and left the room.
"More wine? You trying to get me drunk and have your way with me?" Light asked grinning and L rolled his eyes.
"As if getting you drunk would be necessary," he said , "Why don't we go out onto the deck, I believe the fireworks are going to be starting soon. Take your wine." He suggested and as he walked past the table he grabbed the plate of strawberries and carried it with him, causing Light to snicker behind him.
As they made it out to the deck they looked across the water to the Magic Kingdom, marveling at how beautiful it looked from the bay, all of the lights seemed to twinkle and glow magically across the water and the castled was bathed in a dazzling blue light, and appeared to be twinkling.
They watched as the lights lowered so that only the castle was bright and music began to play. A woman who introduced herself as the blue fairy began a story about how when stars were born they had the power to make a wish come true, which was followed by a child's voice singing the old rhyme of 'Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight'…Light heard L groan slightly and squeezed his hand.
"L…behave," he admonished .
"Could they not just show the fireworks and go without the singing children?" he asked .
"Why-is it getting to you?" Light asked and L looked shocked.
"Getting to me? As in sentimentally? Of course not…"
"Liar..." Light told him and turned back to the fireworks that had begun simply and had grown to large ones that looked as if they were dripping down from the sky. They listened to someone who introduced himself as a cricket who never believed in wishes until recently. Then suddenly they saw what appeared to be a fairy flying from the top of the castle across the sky, her wings and outfit brightly lit with shining lights, as she waved her star topped wand. The castle changed colors with each different themed firework display to go with the voice that told a little more about wishes coming true, which were obviously well known characters to those that follow the movies, but not to the two of them although they could follow the story line easily.
They watched brightly colored fireworks that accentuated each character, that exploded into different shapes and sizes and finally culminating in the beginning song again with an added chorus with the most brilliant, explosive fireworks at the end. From where they were in the bay they could still hear the screaming and applauding from the crowd onshore.
"That was…" L began but couldn't finish as Light had pulled him against him and attacked his mouth. Once his surprise had passed he melted into the kiss, his arms coming around to hold Light against him. Light smiled down at him after he released him.
"I wanted to do that so badly the other night after the other fireworks and couldn't that now that I had the opportunity I didn't want to wait a moment longer." He explained and L nodded.
"Am I complaining?" he asked and then frowned when Light brought a hand up to his own face, moving his jaw slightly, "Are you in pain?" he asked and Light shook his head.
"Not pain, but once in a while it feels odd where it was dislocated, as if it's snapping back into place." He answered and L's eyes narrowed in anger as he pulled away.
"Being shot by Matsuda was too good for Kenji after what he did to you," he said noting the scar from where the murderer had hit Light with his gun and running his fingers across it. Light started slightly and pulled L's hand away from his face, his honey eyes suddenly clouding over.
"He did a lot worse to others but I don't want to think about that right now," he told him looking away and moving towards the food on the table. L grabbed his hand as he began to move stopping him.
"I'm sorry, I should never have brought that up, I'm ruining the evening," he said and Light forced a smile that L could see did not reach his still troubled eyes, running a hand through his hair.
"It's okay, I have my own issues to deal about that whole incident I guess, no harm done, and you're not ruining anything." Before L could answer they both looked to the door after hearing it open to see the butler had arrived with their dinner, placing the steaming food on the table between the large leather seats on the other side of the room, setting up the plates and pouring wine in fresh glasses. He also set up a small urn, leaving two coffee cups and condiments on the hors devour table.
"As requested I brought another bottle of wine and the mini-dessert plate which consists of Key Lime Pie, New York Style Cheesecake, Tiramisu and Chocolate-Hazelnut Mousse Cake. I know you had requested that my services were no longer needed after dinner, but please do not hesitate to contact me if you change your mind before we make a stop at the dock to let me off." L smiled and shook his head.
"We will be fine, thank you very much," he stated and then was surprised when Light walked past him and to the butler, reaching for his wallet and then pressed bills into the man's hand with a smile.
"Thank you," he added and the butler smiled, nodded slightly and left them. L watched, his thumb to his lips and head cocked slightly.
"I had not thought of the tip," he said and Light smiled.
"Well as you don't carry cash you wouldn't think of it. Another reason why you can't live without me," he said sitting down at the table, "Come on let's eat I'm starving," he added. L nodded and then suddenly went back to the hors devours table, finding the plate of mini desserts and bringing it with him to the other table where Light was sitting causing the young detective to chuckle.
As Light tucked into a meal of skewered beef and an herb salad, L watched him silently for a few moments, still feeling slightly uneasy by his reaction to the mentioning of Kenji's name. With everything that happened directly after his getting out of the hospital, he hadn't stopped to think that perhaps Light would have some residual uneasiness about the brutal beating. He had already admitted to having issues with having Kira resurface and take him over, but nothing about the actual beating he took at the hands of the murderer.
"Light, I know you don't really wish to talk about the attack…" Light stopped eating and looked at him, eyes narrowing slightly.
"If you know that why do you bring it up?" he asked.
"Because I noticed an unfavorable reaction when I mentioned Kenji that I had not noticed earlier. While we are having this quiet time, perhaps you might wish to express…" Light shook his head almost violently.
"No, I do NOT wish," he said sternly and then sighed and smiled at L, his hand reaching out to hold L's, "This trip is about you and us together, not about whatever problems I might be having. I promise you when we get back home if I feel I need to deal with this I will, I will share it with you but not now, okay?"
"Why is this different than what you did to me while we were in the Jacuzzi?" L asked and Light closed his eyes for a moment to keep from getting angry, withdrew his hand and then stared at L.
"Because I am not suffering from PTSD, nor am I harboring unsaid deep anger about something that you have done! Can we stop now?" L stared back at him defiantly for a moment and then decided he would wait until a later time to pursue this.
"Fine." He answered and stuffed a piece of the chocolate mousse into his mouth in obvious anger. Light watched him for a moment and then reached for his hand once again.
"Don't be angry with me L, I know what you're trying to do but I just don't want to go there right now, it isn't necessary and all it's going to do is make things difficult when all I want is for things to be good between us. There'll be time when we get home. I love you, please?" L nodded and smiled.
"I love you Light, that's the only reason I brought it up. But you are correct; we can deal with this another time. Unlike myself you are not having ridiculous reactions to simple actions," his smile became wider, "Also, there is the question of what to do once we have finished eating."
Light's smile became almost predatory, the heat from it radiating across the table and directly into L's veins. Light pushed his plate aside and stood up, leaned across the table and attacked his partner, one hand reaching behind the raven's head, holding it steady as he desperately plunged his tongue into the detective's mouth, moaning into it and receiving one in return.
"I take it we are done eating?" L panted when Light finally released him, and Light's answer was to pull him up from the chair, reach down and pull the white shirt up and off of him in one quick pull. He grabbed L's head again; attacking his mouth as if it were the last time he was going to touch him. He then pulled L away from the table and towards the bedroom, pushing him through the door and onto the bed, shutting the door with his foot. He stared down at L; his desire etched in his features and in his eyes as his hand reached down and gently touched L's face, and ran his hand through the unruly hair.
"I love you L Lawliet," he whispered and kissed him again, moving his kisses down his body, avoiding his neck and moving directly to his chest. He stopped long enough to pull off his own shirt as L's hands worked on his pants so that when he pulled off his shirt, all he had to do was kick off his pants and shoes. He then grabbed L's jeans and slid them off, boxer and all in quick pull as L lifted his body. Light then pulled him into his arms, devouring his mouth once again, before lowering him back onto the bed and lying on top of him; slowly grinding against him. He slowed his movements as he felt the gentle rock of the bed as the yacht moved through the bay, and it only heightened his excitement.
L closed his eyes and concentrated only on the pleasure he was feeling, the rush going through his body, the excitement heightened by where they were. He whispered his partner's name as Light's hands and mouth roamed his body, finding all the places he knew would set him senses on fire and drive all coherent thought from his mind.
Hearing L whisper his name and react to every touch and kiss spurred Light forward, he never tired of hearing and seeing L this way. He reached between them and began to stroke him as he licked down the porcelain body, stopping to dip his tongue in L's navel before licking and swirling it around the head of his cock.
He continued to gently suck, as one hand slid down L's thighs and then up again gently massaging his balls, which he then moved his tongue to, then taking each one into his mouth, sucking and licking gently, feeling L tremble in ecstasy below him. He continued he felt L was close then reached up to kiss him again, then replacing his lips with his fingers that L greedily sucked into his mouth, licking and sucking in earnest, knowing what was coming next.
Light closed his eyes as L's tongue worked his fingers, enjoying the feel of it and moaning out loud as L sucked hard. He finally withdrew them, kissing L again as he moved them to L's entrance and began to push two of them inside. L's eyes snapped open at first at the intrusion, surprised at the feel of two fingers, but then closed them again as they reached his prostate and lightening went off behind his eyes and intense pleasure stopped his thought.
Light continued to attack L's prostate, his mouth going back to L's cock practically making L leap from the bed. L's hands reached down and found Light's hair and he held on as hips pushed himself deeper into Light's mouth. Light added a third finger for just a few moments, as his own need was nearly over powered him and he withdrew them, grabbing L's hips and positioning himself at his entrance.
He slowly began to push in and was surprised when L's hands left his hair and grabbed his own hips, pushing him inside L's warmth faster causing them both to cry out. Light then reached down and pulled L up as he swung his legs in front of him, sitting L on his lap. They moved together, the gentle rocking of the boat adding to their movements. L took Light's face into his hands as he rode him, kissing him fiercely in between moans of pleasure, eventually pulling away, his head falling back as Light increased his thrusts upward into him.
As Light felt his release rushing through him he growled deep in his throat, pushing L back onto the and moving his legs over his shoulders as he began to thrust hard and fast into him, making L cry out as he also rushed headlong towards his climax. With sound of each other's cries ringing in their ears they both came powerfully, everything around them disappearing into a haze of ecstasy.
Light fell forward onto L's sweat covered body, kissing him deeply as L's hands found their way into his hair again.
"Do you think they'll penalize me for having to change the sheets?" he asked Light when His mouth was freed and Light laughed.
"If they do it was totally worth it," he answered and kissed him again, "I love you," he added and L smiled up at him.
"I love you," he answered and then sighed, "But I fear we need to get up and get dressed, our time will be up soon." Light nodded and rolled off of L with a sigh.
"Now we get to use the shower, does the fun ever end?" he said and L joined him in laughter as they got up.
Once redressed and sitting back at the table, they were having coffee when they heard the voice of their captain announcing their arrival back at the dock, and thanking them for being aboard. As they stood from the table, Light grabbed L's hand and pulled him to him and kissed him.
"Thank you for a spectacular evening," he said and L smiled happily.
"I am glad you enjoyed it," he said as they walked to the door and eventually off the yacht and onto the dock, "When we get back to the hotel I need to check on the boys," he added as they made their way back to the monorail and Light nodded.
"Then perhaps back to bed?" Light suggested and L laughed.
"You are insatiable!" he said and Light shrugged.
"You only have to say no," he suggested and then laughed at the horror struck look on L's face at the suggestion as they pulled out of the station.
