Yagami Light clasped a hand to his aching head, glaring deftly at L. Nothing was worth the splitting migraine he received every time Misa ventured into his presence. He could have been spared, too, if it wasn't for the detective who rudely decided to answer his cellular phone on his account.

Holding the device delicately up to his ear with only his thumb and pointer, L chewed on his bottom lip as he was addressed by the blonde girl and listened to her spiel obediently as Light could only stare at Ryuuzaki's back in bland horror.

It had taken her just seconds to arrive, almost as though she had been waiting just outside the door for permission to enter. Light would have submitted himself to Kira-questioning for an hour with L rather than having to spend five minutes with the girl. Instead of picturing this scenario, however, he strangely ended up with an intimate image of…

Stop. Just stop it, he directed himself firmly.

Misa threw herself into his unwilling arms, giggling and demanding, "Say you love me!" L stood off to the side with his hands in his pockets, contemplating the scene with undisguised interest. "Say you love me," she exclaimed once again, much to Light's aggravation.

"You love me…?" Light repeated, easily side-stepping the request and simply echoing back to her like a parrot. He smiled darkly over her head.

Misa pulled back, puzzled. "Huh? But-"

Light shrugged innocently. "I said it."

While Misa continued to look befuddled, L seated himself on one end of the couch, causing the chain between the two males to become taunt. When Light felt the slight tug, he followed behind loyally, more than willing to sit next to the raven haired detective. Instead his plans were foiled as Misa bounded forth and placed herself in the center of her hosts, causing the boys to have to stretch their arms out behind her back to keep from reaching their bind's limit.

"May I hold your hand, Light-kun?" The model inquired sweetly, her voice sugar coated.

The teen in question simply rolled his eyes. "No, thanks, it isn't heavy."

Behind her back he laced his fingers with L's.
