L's thoughts(when in L's POV)

"Normal talking"

Light's POV

Light sighed and closed the document with the list of Kira's most recent killings. It was complettely obvious even to an idiot like Matsuda that the killings were in favor of the Yatsuba corporation. The only problem is that we still can't tell which leader is Kira. They could arrest them all but that would make the public too suspitious. Also it's not like we can just hold them forever.

When L heard Light sigh he turing his head to look at him. Light immediately noticed this and stared straight back at L, while recreating and placing his mask. They continued to stare at each other for the next several minutes in silence. L was the first one to break the silence.

"Is something of the matter, Light-kun?" L asked curiously, while he nibbled on his thumb.

Light internally grimaced at what L was doing to his own thumb, but Light did not show that on the outside. Sometimes it seemed like L did that on purpose just to irritate Light. "Not really, it's just that we can't take action against Kira without knowing exactly which one of them it is." Light explained letting his head fall back at rest on the back of the chair.

"Hm, yes. That is why we will only monitortheir meetings for now. Does that bother you Light-kun? Do you want to place the blame on one of them and pretend you are not he real Kira?" L responded back to Light turing his chair so he faced Light with his whole body. Before Light could respond indigniantly, his father started yelling.

"MY SON IS NOT KIRA!" Mr. Yagami yelled, defending his son like the 'amazing' father he is.

When Light heard his father yell he flinched slightly. L instantly noticed this, but Mr. Yagami didn't and continued his ranting at L.

"I THOUGHT LIGHT HAD BEEN RELEASED! I THOUGHT HE WAS CLEARED OF BEING KIRA! SO WHY ARE YOU TWO HANDCUFFED TOGETHER?! IT IS CLEAR TO EVERY ONE ON THE TASK FORCE THAT LIGHT IS NOT KIRA!" Mr. Yagami yelled, finishing his rant.

Light knew that his father wasn't actually mad about him being accused of being Kira, at least not at the moment. No, he was angry because he couldn't get Light to himself. Light shuddered at the thought of what his father would do to him if they were all alone. Light glanced back and forth between his father and L to see what the detectives reaction would be. Please Light thought don't have the handcuffs removed. He repeated that in his mind over and over again.

L swiviled his chair to face the computer in front of him once again. "Do not forget, Mr. Yagami there was also a second Kira. Who is to say this isn't the work of a third Kira, as unlikely as it can be." L stated quietly while stirring his sludge like tea, that is if you can even still call that tea. "But I do admit that it is not really nessessary to continue being hand cuffed together. We are in a high security building built to help hunt down and contain Kira after all." mummbled L almost like he was talking to himself.

No...

"Does this mean that your suspitions of my son being Kira are gone?" Mr. Yagami asked L, taking a slight step forward. A step that clearly showed his excitement and hope.

No...

" Nowhere close. I still suspect Light-kun of being the first and original Kira. But we have camera's almost everywhere so I'm not very concerned about Light escaping or killing from this building." L answered, then took a sip from his 'tea'.

No...

" So you're going to take the hand cuffs off, Ryuzaki?" Matsuda questioned standing up from the couch.

L, Light and Mr. Yagami all turned and looked at Matsuda with wide eyes(well not L, I don't think his eyes can get any wider).

"...What?" Matsuda asked looking at them.

"It seem's that we all forgot you were in the room, Matsuda-san..." L stated slowly in a low voice.

I concure

An awkward silence settled over the room like a think fog. It must have the most awkward silence in the world, it could win a gold medal. It also ended up being a starring contest of some sort because nobody moved a muscle. Then...

"~Light~!" Misa sang as she barged through the door and ran straight to Light latching on like a leech. When she burst through the door it was like they broke out of a trance.(btw Misa is still the second Kira in here. She just kind of had a love at first sight kind of thing with Light. She is not actually dating Light; She's just craycray)

Oh god, Light thought, this day cannot get any worse.

But of course it could. I mean this phrase was created as forshadowing, it's practically the definition.

"Oh Light! Misa-Misa has missed you so, so, so much! Let's go out on a date now! We can go this cute little cafe just five blocks from here! Misa-Misa knows you will love it!" Misa screeched in her high pitched and slightly painful voice.

"AS I was saying earlier," L interrupted making everyone in the room look at him(Mogi is some where else in the building), "I agree to uncuff myself from Light as long as-"

"Oh, really?! So Light and Misa-Misa can go on dates together without you?!" Misa exclaimed joyfully. She was practically jumping in place.

God, no...

" Miss Amane, I would appreciate it if you would not interupt me while I'm speaking." L stated in a flat tone. Misa pouted but kept quiet, thankfully. "Thank you. Anyhow I will only let Light out of the hand cuffs is if he shares a room with Mr. Yagami." L finished with what sounded like a sigh.

NO! This can't be happening. This can't be happening! If I share a room with him, he will...There will be nothing to stop him!

Light turned his head slightly to look at his father with twinge of fear in his eyes. Though nobody noticed this because they were all looking at L.

"I completely understand, Ryuzaki." Mr. Yagamisaid, "I agree to share a room with Light if it means it will help get rid of your suspitions of him being Kira."

No...no,no,no,no,no,no,no. This is my worst nightmare.

L nodded and pulled a key out of his front right pocket. It was the key for the handcuffs.

I have to stop this, Light thought determined.

"Honestly, Ryuzaki if you still think that I am Kira, I think it would be best to stay handcuffed so you can keep an eye on me, to make sure I am no the first Kira." Light said while gently prying Misa off of his person.

Light could feel his father glaring at him. With that feeling Light knew that if he didn't convice L to keep the cuffs on, he would not live to see tomorrow.

L glanced up at Light from the cuff around his wrist in which he was about to unlock. He made a small humming sound. "Why are you so desperate to keep the cuffs on, Light-kun? That isn't like you." L stated leaning closer to Light.

Light started to panic inside of his mind. No, you can't figure it out L. If you do it really could be my end!

"What are you talking about Light?!" Mr. Yagami said, as he stared at his son with wide eyes. To any other person they would see the emotion in his fathers eyes as shock but Light knew the truth. The emotion in those eyes was rage. Pure, unadultured rage. His father knew what he was trying to do.

Light flinched and pryed Misa off of himself in one final push. Light kept his hads on her shoulders to make she didn't latch right back onto him like a disgusting leach. "As it is my sense of self is kind of depleted. I mean, I am not doing a lot of the thingsI used to do anymore!" Light exclaimed looking at L and doing what ever he can not to look at his father. "Anyway if I am just going to be stuck in this building where you will be watching me on camera anyway, so we might as well be chained together." Light explained in a clear crisp yet slightly irritated tone of voice.

L raised an eyebrow at Light.

L's POV

L raised an eyebrow at Light. This isn't like Light! The Light I know would be doing anything to get these handcuffs off! L thought to himself. L pushed his lip with his thumb and starred at Light.

Finally L spoke. "Well honestly it won't make difference whether or not we are cuffed together like you said. Anyway I think you could use sometime without me, to return to your usual sleeping patterns and such." L stated and swiftly released the locking mechanism in the handcuff.

L glancedat Light's face to see his reaction. Light's face was completely blank, even his eyes had dulled. Light almost looked dead, his skin had paled and he was frozen in place.

"Light-kun?" L asked starring at Light's face getting more concerned as time went by. L knew deep down that he loved Light. Without himself even realizing it, L had fallen deeply in love with Light when he was investigating him. Of courseWatari knew this as well since L went to him, seeking advice from his father figure. Sure, L knew a lot of stuff, about other people though. He was never good at analyzing his own feelings.

Light's POV

No! L did it... He unlocked the cuff. Light thought, I can't hate him though it's not like he 'knows' what my own father does to me... Light continued on losing focus with the outside world.

Then everything suddenly went... dark.
