And here it is. The conclusion to L and B's strange affair. I won't waste your time too long. Just long enough to say, Enjoy!

Slowly, as if cutting the air, he moved the knife closer and closer to L's body. The tension was incredible. He wanted nothing more than to tear into him. But he wouldn't...L was special. He deserved better than that.

Finally, the cold blade made contact with L's skin, sending a shiver through his whole body. He pressed gently, taking a breath as it sank in like fresh bread. L's mouth gaped and he clenched his teeth, as he pulled the knife along slowly, bringing it back once the cut crossed the entire left half of his chest.

He looked it over slowly, the silvery blade coated in dark red blood. He stuck out his tongue, licking from the bottom to the tip of both sides until there was no more. Laughing a little, he looked at L. "You taste just like my favorite jam...and I want more."

He dropped to L's convulsing chest. He wouldn't die from this. He'd made sure to avoid the lung, so there was no need to worry. Greedily, his eyes set upon the cut, a glint flashing over them as he pressed his mouth to it, kissing the bloody gash. L cried out in pain as he let his tongue invade his body, lapping up the sweet blood that was now rushing to it. He worked his way down, making sure to get it all as it left L's body. "Relax...you're all clean." he smiled as he took his mouth from the cut, his face dripping with blood and his teeth stained red.

The wound was now twice as thick, but it wasn't dripping anymore, save for the occasional drop, and all that was left was a red stain on his chest here and there.

"Why, B?" L tried to catch his breath.

His eyes lit up. "What did you say?" He lunged toward L's face. "What did you call me...?"

"...B..."

His eyes lit up. "Well, it's a start. Now say my name. My whole name."

"B-beyond..."

"Closer...say it...say it!" He grabbed L's face, holding it so close to his, he could smell each unsteady breaths.

"Beyond...Birthday." L practically spat it out.

"Beyond Birthday!" He nearly jumped for joy. "I knew you wouldn't forget, my love...you never forget anything." He wrapped his arms tightly around L, ignoring the yells as he pressed on the open wound.

"Now there's just one...last...thing..." He stared into L's eyes. "Say you love me...scream it to the heavens..."

"No..."

"Do it!" He grabbed the knife, holding it to L's throat, anger flaring in his face. "Say you love me!"

"Never..."

He growled, trying with all his might to cut off his love's head. But his arm wouldn't move. He couldn't do it. "Fine...it doesn't matter of you love me...because I love you. I love you so very much, L." He voice started to pick up, going faster as he sat up. "All I've ever wanted was to give you my heart, L...all my life, it's all I ever wanted!"

He cut open his own shirt with the knife. "All those years at Wammy's...training to 'become' the next L. I never wanted that! And no one ever could! From the moment I met you, I knew it. You are perfection. And no one has EVER copied perfection." He touched the tip of the blade to his chest, tracing the familiar pattern over and over, harder each time.

"I didn't want to be you, I wanted to be with you. Work with you, love you, do everything with you!" he pressed harder as blood ran down his chest.

"I knew then, what so many godforsaken people on this hellhole of a planet think they know now. I knew true, undying, unrequited love!" He felt the blade scraping against his ribs with each time passing.

"THAT is why I went crazy, L. They didn't understand it. They had no idea. All the pictures I made. All the stories I wrote. They said I was mentally ill. I heard them. While they sat there, all smug. Acting like I couldn't hear from across the room. 'How could he do all that with his blood? It's unheard of!' " he spat next to L's body. "Well, the blood was my passion! It made my love all the more real!"

He stopped, reaching the bottom tip of the cut. "So I ran away the night before. They'd have locked me up. Stopped my art. Tried to keep our love apart. I couldn't let them ruin something so pure...and then, I found you. For years, I waited for the perfect time and this is it, L! Tonight is my moment of pure ecstasy! My heaven!" He held the knife out before him. "For tonight is the night I give L-kun my heart..."

He plunged the dagger deep into his chest. "Tonight is the night the lovers become one! The night I die!" He drew with all his might, bringing with it his beating heart. "The night I become immortal!" He fell forward onto L, putting the heart in his face. "Eat it..."

L turned his head away, shutting his eyes.

"Eat it!" With his last strength, he held open L's jaw, shoving the heart in and making him bite it, rubbing his throat until he swallowed. "Now...I'm always with you." He grinned, letting his head drop beside L's and whispering in his ear. "You'll never forget this, L...you'll never forget...me..." he blood was draining fast. He'd be dead in under a minute.

:For you..." Dropping the knife, he drew a folded up paper from his pocket. "I...love...you..."His eyes shut slowly and he went limp, dropping the paper by the frozen L's face. "Do.....you........love....?"

And all was silent, save for L's heavy breaths. He shook with utter horror. "Watari..." it was just above a whisper. "WATARI!" he yelled for the one person in the world he could trust, but there was no answer. Just more silence, as tears began to stream down his face.

...there's nothing to say after that...I even got teary writing it...
