Caged chapter 21

A month and two weeks had passed, and Ryuzaki's successors were coming in a few days. Just about every Saturday, Sunday, Friday, and any other day when there wasn't much work, Misa forced a date of some sort. It was either the four of them, Ryuzaki, Alison, Light and Misa, or just Light and Misa. Light had to endure this about every day. It was bad enough he was handcuffed to Ryuzaki, and he had Misa attached to his arm too.

Alison and Ryuzaki's relationship pretty much just stayed the same. They spoke on dates, and played games. It was like the kiss had never happened...on the outside. Every time Misa brought up "Big double date", they'd immediately thought back to the day.

Ryuzaki remembered it clearly. They were standing in silence, when she leaned in. Ryuzaki didn't see it coming, and didn't do anything until he knew what was happening. He felt her soft lips on his, and his eyes widened. He didn't pull away, and was a little disappointed when she did.

She then skipped back to her room, leaving Ryuzaki standing there until Light came out.

Back to present day, Misa, Light, Ryuzaki and Alison sat down where they usually did. Ryuzaki in the centre on his computer, in his usual crouch. Light was sitting a to his right, the handcuffs hanging down, making a slight jingling noise when they moved. Misa was sat what was considered too close to Light. Alison sat beside Ryuzaki, about 120cm away. She typed on her computer, checking email, surfing the internet.

Alison looked at the time; it was 2:45pm. Alison hovered over it to see it was a Saturday. She sighed. She didn't want to have another double date tonight. She didn't mind hanging out with Ryuzaki in a meeting that was considered a date; she had just had enough.

"Okay..." Ryuzaki started. He pressed a button. "Weddy, have you got the cameras installed?" he asked. Over the month, he hired a female called Weddy for occasions like this. When he needed places to be bugged.

"Yeah." A woman replied calmly. "The Yotsuba meeting room is bugged. There are no blind spots what so ever." It was Weddy that was speaking. "I'm coming out now." She told Ryuzaki. There was a clicking of heals hitting against the hard floor as she walked. Unlike Ryuzaki's microphone, Weddy's was on all of the time. It was for her safety, as a horrible consequence may reveal itself.

"Well done, Weddy." Ryuzaki said. He let go of the button and got up. "Light, come to the kitchen. I'd enjoy some cake right about now."

Light sighed and followed the raven haired detective next door, leaving the young blonde and the brunette behind. "Why do you eat so many sweets?" Light asked.

"Think about it." Ryuzaki said. "I've already eaten a lot of sweets, if I take a sudden with drawl, I would end up unconscious."

"Good point." Light told Ryuzaki, and waited for him to open the door, and take his desired object. He took out the usual white plate, with a delightful looking cake with a strawberry on top.

The two walked back to the lobby.

"LIGHT I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!" Misa squealed.

"I was barley gone a minute..." Light said. Ryuzaki dragged him to his seat.

"Misa wants to go on a date tonight!" she said.

Alison hung her head, and hit her palm against her fore head. "Face palm..." she murmured to herself whilst doing this action. "Misa...Why...why?" Alison asked weakly, looking up slightly, her hand still on her face.

"Because it's fun! It's better than sitting down here like a total misfit." Misa looked to Ryuzaki whilst saying this word 'misfit'.

Ryuzaki shrugged it off, and put his fork into his mouth. He left it there, and continued typing, clicking and reading.

"Misa...seriously...whyeee?" Alison moaned like a five year old. "We go one just about every night. Why don't we give it a break?"

Misa thought for a moment. She smiled deviously. "Misa-Misa thinks that Ryuzaki and Alison want alone time."

Ryuzaki nearly spat his fork out. Alison and Ryuzaki exchanged a look. Alison's head fell to the side slightly. Alison walked into the middle of Light and Ryuzaki. "Misa, I think you're forgetting one thing." Alison held up the handcuffs, slightly pulling Light and Ryuzaki's hands up. "And we know Ryuzaki. I doubt he'll take them off."

"It seems that Alison thinks I have a very closed mind." Ryuzaki said. Alison turned around to look at him. She let go of the chain. There was jingly noise again. Ryuzaki stared up at Alison with his large, dark, beautiful eyes.

Holy crap... Alison thought. Those are...nice... "I'm sorry...Did I offend you?"

Ryuzaki thought for a minute. "You are right. I do have a closed mind...on some subjects." Ryuzaki was a determined guy. And he wanted to show people they were wrong...especially when he liked the said person. "If you would accompany me...I will take the handcuffs off for tonight, and tonight only."

Light's head snapped round, and a smile appeared on his face.

"YAY!" Misa yelled. Light looked up to her now. "Light is excited that he an Misa-Misa get to go on a date ourselves tonight!"

"Uh...yeah...sure." Light stammered. "And that I can get a few minutes of priv-" Light looked at Misa again. "Never mind."

A/N: Argh, 2am...I tired. =3

Hope you enjoyed this chapter. I would have finished sooner if I didn't get caught up in Ouran High School Host Club. My fangirldom expanded once more.
