Eating cake with L

((-takes the tissue gratefully-))

One long finger gently tilted her head upwards.

"Trust me..."

Slowly, his head bent down, his lips brushing against hers.

((....L's not a hormonal teenager like Near or myself, so the next part is up to you....-sweatdrops-))

The butterflies in her stomach were dancing even wilder then before as she looked up at him with big eyes. Had he really just kissed her?
She was hesitating what to do now... should she kiss him? Or should she tell him that she was not ready for this. Her heart was torn in two but as she looked into his eyes the decision was quickly made.

I know you'd want me to continue living, Ichiro... I know you would want me to be happy... I think this man can make me happy.

She stood on the tips of her toes as she pressed her lips against his... hoping he would response.

((indeed no hormonal teenagers but we do have two insecure young adults... so that makes the situation somewhat similar))

L's heart soared as she kissed him. He hadn't felt joy like this in many years. As he kissed back, holding her close, the entire world melted away. Kira, death- it all faded into the background. The only thing that mattered right now was the embrace that he and Mino were sharing.


And though he knew it would end, he fervently hoped there would be many more.

((......-snuffles- This made me tear up a bit....))

Minoushje rested her head against his shoulder, just enjoying the feeling of L's arms around her.
"Thank you..." She whispered softly.

((me too))

((She....I just realized I wrote he kissed him....o_O))

"For what?"

He was the one who should be thanking her...

((then correct the mistake >_>))

Minoushje stayed silence for a while.
"You are the first person who managed to open me up... in a way, you gave me my life back."

((wow this is deep, or is that just me?))

He continued to hold her close.

"I could say the same about you....now there's more purpose for me than Kira."

((It IS deep....but in a good way...))

It was a good thing that she could give him the chance to relax... not to worry about the Kira case constantly.
"Seems like something brought us together..." She said smiling as she gave him a soft kiss on his cheek.

((I wonder what that something is :p))

L beamed with happiness as she spoke.

"Indeed...."

((I have no clue. xD))

Near had really loved spending time with Zen, in fact, when the two of them walked in the house he thought it was a shame it had ended.
Together they walked to the kitchen and he held the door open for Zen so she could walk in first.

((I wonder what they'll find there XD))

Minoushje stepped away from L, her face bright red.
"Zen-chan, Near-kun!!" She called startled. "I... uhh... we..."
She honestly didn't know what to say as she looked up at L hoping he could give an answer.

((hmm someone as direct as L... that could be an interesting answer...))

L also looked a bit embarrassed.

"We were...we were....having a special moment."

He looked pointedly at Zen and Near's hands.

"And it would appear that you two have shared one as well."

Distraction, much?

((I honestly didn't know what to put. o_o))

"Yes we did." Near stated.
He wasn't one to avoid subjects like that... he was sure Zen knew that too.
He looked at Zen, who was standing next to him, and gave her a smile.

((I didn't know either... that's why I wrote that post *points up at Minoushje's post*))

She smiled back.

It wouldn't bother her if people knew.

"Well....we were just going to grab something to eat..."

((Now I really am hungry. 8| ))

"Oh, I don't know...I think cake would be okay..."

She looked at Near.

"But if you want something else, I'll be happy to help Mino make it."


((What time is it where you live? It has to be late...))

"Then how about the guys sit down and we prepare dinner for them?" Minoushje asked as she grabbed two aprons.

((It's ten o'clock in the evening... so I'm almost going to bed ^.^"))

((Aw....Near and pancakes.....-giggles-))

She squeezed his hand.

"It's no trouble. I'm sure you and L will want to talk anyway."

Zen took the apron Mino handed her and began rummaging through the fridge.

((-nods- I think we can stop after the next post...no need to write about us chewing. xD))

((Well you could start the conversation between L and Near and I'll reply tomorrow morning - in about 12 hours or so - I'm sleepy =_= so I'm going to bed now))

((Alright.....talk to you later.))

L sat down at the table.

"How are things going at the SPK?"

((This is so weird....the SPK didn't exist when L was around....8S))

"There's no progress at all... it seems as though Kira has completely disappeared from sight... which wouldn't be the first time." Near said as he sat down.

((Yeah I know... but then again Near didn't show his until after L died and we made it look like they've always remained friends >_>))

L bit his thumb and gazed out the window distractedly.

"I know....before I was brought here, there had been no progress made at the NPA."

((Oh, the RP universe.....I might have to be Light so we can get the plot rolling...))
