"A Simple hug" LxLight fanfic
The computer monitor's
glow of light reflected off against the detective's lifeless, black
eyes, dark and weary from lack of sighs, as he scrolls down
the information and evidence that he has read multiple times the
previous night. He raises his free arm into a position that in which
he pulls his thumb against his soft, creamy, pale lips and nibbles
upon the thumb.
" I just don't understand."
He thought, "I'm not getting any closer to a break-through like
this."
The older detective's thoughts
were cut off by a clanging sound of the rattling movement of the
chain, bounding him and the younger Kira suspect, Light
Yagami.
Ryuuzaki, other wise known as L,
shifts his eyes slightly towards the source of the rattling. Light
meets the eye contact of the other man and sighs
wearily.
"Ryuuzaki," Light
mummers gently. "It's getting a bit late once again, shouldn't
we quit for the evening?"
L
glances at Light briefly and mummers something under his breathe
before speaking again.
"Fine then,"
he speaks. " To be honest, I must agree, I am feeling somewhat
fatigued myself."
L clicks
multiple buttons onto his computer screen to save any data he has
come up with for the past days. He stretches slightly, standing from
his usual sitting position from his mobile chair, walking to the bed,
laying next to the younger male, the chain rattling in the blank
darkness, the only source of lighting coming from the glare of the
computer monitors. Light eyes the other man's activity, his wide eyes
locking onto the other's gaze.
"What
is it, Light-kun?" L questions, tilting his head slightly at the
other's glare. "You've been looking at me for quite a while. Is
something wrong, are you ill?"
Light
looks down slightly, biting down on his bottom lip softly, a flash of
red fading from his cheeks.
"It's
nothing, Ryuuzaki."
"I
see," he mummers, almost unaudible. L turns his back towards the
other man gazing upwards to the celing, scrolling his eyeballs, as if
he were in deep thought, doing his best to fall asleep. The chain
that rattles between them breaks a moment of silence.
"Hmm?",
L blinks and shifts his head, looking towards Light, who meets
contact with him once again.
Light
looks at him back, gripping onto the sheets, pulling them up to his
chest, seeming to look as if he was holding onto it for comfort, as a
young child would in fright of a short thunderstorm.
"I-It's
nothing, Ryuuzaki, don't mind me."
"Ah,
very well then."
Light
could sense that unexplainable feeling into the depths of his heart
once again. He could not really comprehend what he was feeling. Ever
since he had been chained to the older detective, his previous
feelings of mere friendship had transformed into an unexplainable
feeling of attatchment, or in other words, love. Light cared deeply
for the other male, as strange as it seemed to him, but it was true,
no matter how many times he tried to deny it. His heart raced, his
thoughts swarmed like angry bees in his mind, his hands shook, and
his cheeks blushed, almost every time L would enter his thoughts. And
over the time, these thoughts and feelings were screaming inside of
him, desperate to set them free. Light was also somewhat serious
about this as well, he wanted to pull L into a hug, at least for a
few seconds, to satisfy his current desire. But, it was driving the
man to the point were, he wanted to break those feelings free, to
release them, And that's exactly what he wanted to do, he decided he
had the courage enough to show Ryuuzaki how he felt. Light reached
out to L slowly, his arms trembling and his heart racing at the speed
of sound. Wrapping his arms around L's body, he pulls L close against
his body, resting his head against the back of L's neck, burrying his
head into Ryuuzaki's soft, ebony hair, breathing in his unique
scent. L is a bit alarmed by Light's action, his eyes
growing wide and his concentration of thought
broken.
"Light-kun," Ryuuzaki
whispers like the invisible wind. L felt his cheeks flush, this being
the first time that anyone has shown any kind of affection toward's
him. Ryuuzaki had acutally had been in love with Light the moment he
had himself chained to him. For some reason, it was if Light had
really cared for L, but the change of attidude was alarming him as
well. Putting his feelings of suspicion away, he had grown closer to
the other man. L felt his heart race faster, having Light so close to
him like that, the other's hands pressing firmly against his stomach
to bring him closer.
"L-Light-kun,"
he whispers gently. "Wh-What are you doing?"
Light
blinks, his cheeks growing even redder and brighter, as he
reluctantly answers. "I-I want to h-hold you," he mummers.
Light shyly hugs L tighter and closer to him, as if a mother
sheilding her child from danger. L turns his body so that he is
facing Light, he smiles gently as Light wrapped his arms against him,
bringing he head against Light's chest.
"Can
you hear it?"
"What
am I hearing?"
"My
heart. The heartbeats, Ryuuzaki."
L
heard them loud and clear, like drums beating into the silence. He
smiles and takes Light's hand in his own, pressing it to his own
chest.
"Can
you feel it?"
"Y-Yes
Ryuuzaki, I can. And I never want them to stop."
L
smiles, almost so moved by Light's words, he could have lost control
of his emotions and cried. A shade of red creeps over both of their
faces as L places his hands firmly on Light's shoulders, leaning in
and pressing their lips together softly. As the kiss breaks off ,the
two stare in awe of each other in each other's arms. It was one of
those nights were L was able to sleep peacefully, each man keeping
the other in their thoughts and dreams.
