Light sat there on Ryuzaki’s bed. He peered down at the sleeping boy before him and sighed. He rested his hand on his lover’s ebony hair as he slept, stroking it gently. Though Ryuzaki did not know it, Light had regained his memory as Kira. Whether his partner knew it or not was not his concern, the fact was that Ryuzaki was L, and L was Kira’s enemy. Therefore he should kill Ryuzaki. However, even though Light’s original goal was to use Ryuzaki, he eventually fell in love with him.

Ryuzaki sighed inwardly. It was his first time. He was certain; completely certain, that Light was “Kira”. Yet, somehow, he was unable to find much more proof that he was, other than the terrible sinking feeling within his heart. He had said that he wanted a confession, or at least a suspect that he could be sure of. Now, the last thing that he wanted to hear was Light, admitting that he was “Kira”.

Ryuzaki didn’t want Light to leave; however, his inner detective told him that it was for justice. Was justice really worth giving up his lover? There was no turning back. He had said that he would capture “Kira”. He needed proof though, without proof they couldn’t convict Light.  He didn’t want to find proof though. His only friend, and loved one, would die then. It was all that he could say.

All he needed was the slightest proof that Light was “Kira” and the case would be solved. If Light was condemned as “Kira” by himself, nonetheless, then that would mean that Light would die. He had trouble surviving without Light for a few days after that chains had been removed, how would he live without Light for the rest of his life?

Ideally he would have never met Light, still be the same L that he saw in the mirror only a month ago and have nothing to worry about. But he wasn’t. He had changed inside. He was no longer the carefree detective he had been. He was in love. That was all. It was just love; somehow it had entangled his whole being. His feelings had gotten the better of him.

Light regretted everything; becoming “Kira” falling in love with L. He leaned forward, towards L and whispered a soft 'I love you' before gently kissing him on the cheek. He blushed after realizing what he had just done and jerked his head up. His eyes were wide with shock. Ryuzaki admitted his feelings to him but he had just brushed them off, at least that was what he thought. He found himself falling for the insomniac before him.

Ryuzaki stirred a bit but did not open his eyes. Light sat there and looked at his co-worker. He was supposed to be his father’s boss? He wondered to himself as he dipped his head towards the pale boy’s face.

Ryuzaki’s eyes shot open. Light’s eyes widened as he realized Ryuzaki had been awake the whole time. A soft blush covered his face.

“Light-kun...” a soft voice whispered; it was Ryuzaki’s.

“Y-Yes?” he stuttered in reply.

“Why did you kiss me?” Ryuzaki asked; his eyes unfazed.

“How long were you awake?” Light questioned, obviously embarrassed.

“Ever since you woke me up at 4:30, I’ve been awake.” He stated.

‘4:30...?! Then he must have heard everything I said?!’ Light thought to himself. His face was turning redder by the second.

“I love you too.” Ryuzaki said, though it sounded more like a laugh. He smiled at Light. He knew that “Kira” was standing right in front of him. He laughed at the irony of it all as they kissed. He had chosen to take the poison, there was no turning back for him.

the lips laced with poison change your very soul...
It’s about L who is the best detective in the world and Light is “Kira” a “ruthless” killer that L is trying to catch, the two fall in love and then it gets really complicated because L doesn’t want Light to be “Kira”, but Light is “Kira” and Light regrets becoming “Kira” and then it gets even more complicated because L finds out that Light is “Kira” and doesn’t want him to go though. L has to maintain the fact that he is the best detective in the whole wide world and cannot show his emotions. This is a story filled with complicated convictions and heartbreaking judgment...

It was a poison that he had chosen to take

He had taken the poison willingly

Now he was ensnared in his own trap,
But not without his prey

Torn between love and justice
Love is truly a thorny path

If we wish to drink this poison called Love
We must prepare for the consequences

He no longer held his head high
He became lowly and miserable

The consequences of the poison always take affect
They always strike when you least expect

In the end your spirit will disappear into the dark void we call Love
There is no happily ever after
Poison is poison
No matter how it is taken.

This is sad and sweet, but I absolutely love it. I seem to be reading a lot of sad fanfictions lately...
