"His conviluted sense of right is appauling." you said, as your eyes scanned the computer monitor before you. L shot you a glance out of the corner of his eye. You had known L since you were kids. And while he was what you would call brillant, a genesis at everything. You were more computer brillant. As the cops spoke behind you, you were hacking three main frames that had servailence camera's hoping to catch a glimpse of Kira, or Light. Which ever one came first. Your hands ran across the keys to fast for the agents behind you to pay any attention. You scanned the camera's, frustrated you gave a growl.
"Shit." You leaned back in your chair, taking your glasses off your face, your green eyes looking up at the ceiling, your long brown hair falling behind the back of the chair.
"Nothing?" L said. You shook your head.
"No, I know it's that bastard Light. But he's no where in any of the cameras and neither is that idiot Misa." You felt your hair moving behind you. Knowing full well that it was L. When things got rough on you. He would start running his hands through your hair. You wore a long green tank top, with beige cargo shorts. You were bare footed just like L, but you prefered shoes when outside, unlike him.
"I need candy." He said suddenly. You let out a laugh.
"Ofcourse you do. You always eat that shit. And yet your like 12 pounds." You got up from your chair. He looked at you confused, then down at himself.
"I'm not 12 pounds." He said, matter of factly.
"I know L, I was just saying, like you know your still very thin." You went into your backpack and pulled out a bag of chocolates. Walking back to him, you handed him the bag. He smiled at you.
"You know Alex you don't have to call me L." You sat next to him on the couch. Looking around for the first time and noticing that you guys were alone.
"Where the hell did everyone go?" L looked at you.
"They all left awhile ago. You didn't notice?" He asked. You looked back at him.
"No I was far to busy hacking illegally into satalites to realize everyone left." You said laughing.He looked down thenback to you.
"Alex why do you call me L whenyou don't have too?" You looked at him as he stuck a piece of chocolate in his mouth.
"In a delicate situation like this, I wouldjust feel safer calling you L. Does it offened you?"
"No." He saidquietly. You closed your eyes, laying your head down on the back of the couch. You felt L shift, felt his hand grip your shoulder. "Do theyhurt?" You opened your eyes, only to find L extremely close to your face.
"Does what hurt?" You asked.
"Your eyes, their red." He said leaning over you more.
"Somewhat, they get a little dry after I stare at the computer screen for a while." L looked at you for a moment.
"I wonder." He said.
"Wonder what?" You asked.Then he leaned forward. His lips laying over yours, your eyes closed out of reflex. He leaned forward, which added more pressure to the kiss, as his tounge traced the outline of your lips. You opened your mouth, allowing him in. His tounge pressed against yours, and gently slide it to the side. He explored your mouth very throughly. This wasnt something that was odd for L, or suprised you in the least. When he was curious about something he just went for it. Then he pulled away. His face still close to yours.
"L?" You said.
"Yes."
"What did you learn?" You asked. His right hand snaked down, into the bag that lay between his feet. Then retracted with a piece of chocolate, he placed it in his mouth.
"You taste like chocolate." He said smiling. You laughed, a good loud laugh. His smile remained as he truley loved hearing you happy.
"No L, your the one that taste like chocolate. And that's why I taste like it." He tilted his head, reached down into the bag and pulled out a piece of candy, he raised it to your lips.
"Please." He said. You opened your mouth as he dropped it inside, watching as you chewed on it, and swollowed, his lips landed on your again. The same kind of kiss as before. He pulled away again.
"Well?" You asked. He smiled.
"Well you tasted good before, but now your much sweeter." He said smiling. You laughed at him. You were only a year younger than L, but you always felt somewhat older.
"I'll kill him. You know that right?" L looked at you.
"Kill him?" He asked.
"Light. If anything happens to you. I'll kill him. Even if I have to turn to Mello." L took in a deep breath, leaned forward and kissed you softly on your lips.
"This will most likely kill me. But please Alex, whatever you do. Don't let this kill you. It cut me to my very soul to not have you in this world." He said turning toward the T.V. and turning it on. You ment what you said, you would kill that bastard. You would kill Light the moment that L died. You loved this wierd brillant man, squating next to you. You always had. Even now as you watched him watch the news, you knew he was aware that you were watching him, as small tears slide from your eyes. His left hand found it's way infront of your face. Holding a small chocolate in his hand for you. You smiled.
"Chocolate doesn't always fix things, you know?" You said taking the piece.
"I know." He said never looking at you. "But when I'm gone, you'll still have chocolate." You looked down at the candy. So this is how I'll remember you huh? You looked at him, he knew he was going to die, he was planning on it. Your heart began to break, you stuck the candy in your mouth, as the sweet taste, lost to the bitter pain your heart felt, as you layed your head against his back, listening to his heart beat. Waiting for the night, that it wasn't your lullaby.
