Obsessed – 5



Suki watched as her boyfriend played with his chopsticks and never actually brought any food to his mouth.  She had tried starting a conversation twice, only to see him nod absently at her words, never actually joining in the conversation.  He had been completely preoccupied since he sat down with her in the cafeteria.  It wasn't something she hadn't seen before; if he and Light were in the middle of a really difficult case, he'd behave the same way, but she hadn't heard anything about a case.  Also, on those kinds of days, Light himself would be here as well, continuing the discussion of whatever it was they were working on.  But Light wasn't here; it was just she and Matsuda, well actually, it was just she; Matsuda was definitely somewhere other than with her.  She reached across the table and touched his hand, making him start and look up at her.

"Touta, what's bothering you so much?" she asked and he sighed deeply.

"I'm sorry Suki, I don't mean to be preoccupied, it's just that I think something terrible is brewing."

"About what?" she asked.

"Light and Ryuzaki," he said, "Misa showed up at the office today and invited him to lunch…"

"He didn't go with her did he?" she asked and Matsuda nodded.

"He did! And that's part of what's bothering me; but I think he probably wanted to talk to her away from prying eyes; everyone in the office was staring when she came in."

"I can imagine," Suki said, "She's a celebrity, she's quite attractive and she knows it."

"Yea, she is attractive," he said and Suki kicked him under the table making him cry out in pain.

"You're not supposed to notice such things!" she teased as he rubbed his leg.

"OW! I'm sorry, but I couldn't help it!," he said.

"I'm the one who told you that I thought she was up to something last night," Suki added, "And now that she showed up at the office and took Light to lunch, I guess you agree."  He nodded slowly.

"I know Light can handle her, but…I remember what she used to be like during the Kira case.  She was so infatuated with Light; she couldn't see anything else but him.  She was absolutely crazy over him!"
"She was involved in the Kira case?" Suki asked and Matsuda nodded, annoyed at himself for mentioning the case by name.

"Well, yes she was seeing Light at the time and Light was helping out like he often did as a teen.  She helped lure Higuchi into confessing he was Kira," he said quickly covering his tracks and not mentioning that both Light and Misa had been suspects.

"Oh, I see.  Well, did he lead her on, I mean knowing he wasn't really interested." Suki asked.

"Not that I could see, I mean he was dating her but he spent a lot of time telling her he didn't love her, but she wouldn't listen."  Suki looked down at her lunch with a frown.

"And apparently still won't," she said.

"Ryuzaki's not going to be happy when he finds out they went to lunch," Matsuda said as Suki nodded her agreement.

"Then we also have that one that seems to have the same problem with Ryuzaki from the restaurant." She added and Matsuda rolled his eyes.

"I don't really know about that one, I didn't pay any attention to her."

"Believe me she looked as enamored of Ryuzaki as you say Misa is about Light."

"Maybe, but she only sees him when he goes to the restaurant, it's not like she can just show up like Misa did."  Suki reached up and rubbed the frown lines on Matsuda's forehead with her finger tips.

"Yes, well that is a good thing," she said, "Come on, eat your lunch.  Light will be back soon and you'll know for sure what happened; sitting here and worrying isn't going to help anything."  He nodded and smiled at her.

"Yea, you're right.  Thank you for understanding," he said and she smiled at him, noting the trace of worry still in his eyes.

"Touta, don't worry I'm sure they'll be okay. Besides, they also have us to look out for them. What can happen?"  he laughed and nodded again and finally began to eat his lunch.

Misa yawned as she prepared for the tedious task of signing autographs.  Although she appreciated her fans, she wouldn't have her career if not for them, it did get boring after a while writing her name over and over again.  It had been a rather long shoot after her lunch with Light, but she plastered on a smile and did it anyway, her manager watching over her to make sure she did.

"Thank you Misa Misa," one young man said as she returned the picture she had signed for him.

"You're welcome!" she bubbled and lifted her head to smile at him…and stopped dead.  In the crowd she saw him; his hands in his jeans pockets, his back bent slightly, and his head down so that all she could see was all that wild hair. He slowly looked up at her, his large eyes staring at her with such intensity that it nearly took her breath away.  She looked away for a moment to take another picture that was being handed to her, then looked back and he was gone.  She blinked for a few moments; maybe she hadn't really seen him, he couldn't just disappear like that.  She quickly signed her name on the picture and handed it back, her eyes darting back and forth looking for him, but she saw nothing.  She sighed and turned her attention back to her fans.

"You have no idea who you're playing with," a familiar soft voice said from behind her and she froze as another picture was handed to her, "Do not think for one moment that I do not know what you are up to because I do.  But I warn you, it will not go as you want it to, and you will suffer the consequences of your actions."   She turned quickly to see him, she knew that voice, but when she turned he had disappeared into the crowd and she couldn't find him.  She turned to her manager trying not to panic.

"Where did he go, did you see him behind me?" she asked and her manager looked at her in confusion.

"Who?  I didn't see anyone in particular behind you, there are a lot of people behind you, how would I notice just one person?"

"If you'd seen him you would remember him," Misa snapped.

"Could you make it out to Hideki?" the fan in front of her said and she turned back so quickly the young man backed up a step.

"Oh…yes…Hideki…" she stammered as she continued to look around, but Ryuzaki was nowhere to be seen.  At first she considered calling Light at his office and letting him know that Ryuzaki was stalking her, then she decided against it. This was a war between her and Ryuzaki for Light's affections, and she would handle him herself…with Maki's help.

L moved quickly through the crowd, staying low until he was out of her field of vision. He turned and watched her look around trying to find him and smiled.  She now knew that he was aware of what she was trying to do, and that was exactly what he wanted.

Light checked his watch again as he moved quickly down the hall towards the squad room.  He would only be a few minutes late as he had made good time after leaving his apartment.  He walked into the squad room and was not prepared for the reception he received when he did.

"Well look who's back late from lunch!" one of the detectives said and they all laughed, followed by cat calls, whistles and applause, "And did you change clothes?" that just created more laughter.

"Never thought you had it in you, Yagami!" another called creating more laughter.

"I guess this was your week for girls!" one more called out and for a moment it was quiet as they wondered if maybe they'd gone that one step too far.  Light had continued walking when the comments started, arriving at his desk when that last statement rang out.   He hadn't minded the good natured jibes, but the last statement hit him the wrong way.  Matsuda, who was sitting at his own desk across from Light's, saw his eyes narrow in anger for just a moment before going back to normal, a small smile suddenly appearing on his face. That smile unnerved Matsuda…he had seen it before and nothing good came after that particular smile.  He reached up and grabbed Light's arm, shaking his head. Light merely winked at him as he pulled his arm back and turned to face the group of detectives.  He began to walk slowly to the detective who had made the final remark about it being his week for girls, that smile growing wider as he did.

"You're not mad are you, Yagami? It's just a joke you know," the detective said as he watched Light walk towards him, his grin still wide.

"Well Akita, if it were indeed, as you say, my week for girls, isn't it lucky that your girlfriend isn't here right now?" he walked to Akita's desk and picked up a framed picture that was sitting the corner, "She's quite the attractive woman after all, and she does visit here quite often," Light continued to stare at the picture and then turned back to face Akita, "She's quite intelligent and I recall having a really interesting conversation with her.  I rather enjoyed her company."

Matsuda barely masked the laugh that was threatening to escape, as the other detectives all made assorted noises from nervous giggles to gasps of surprise that Light went there.  Akita's face went from amusement to nearly pure fury in seconds.   He reached out and snatched the picture from Light, which only made Light laugh.

"You're not mad are you Akita? It's just a joke you know," he said walking away from him, "And in case you're wondering, I don't have weeks for girls, so you needn't worry about your girlfriend."  Matsuda finally allowed the laughter to break free, as did the rest of the detectives…except for Akita.  He stared for a few more minutes at Light; his face colored in anger, then turned and left the office.  The others went back to whatever they had been doing before Light had returned, as Light sat down at his desk and exhaled deeply.

"Wow Light, that was brilliant!" Matsuda said still laughing, "I bet he'll think twice before making jokes like that again!"  

"Maybe, but only until the next opportunity to ridicule me erases his memory," Light answered and Matsuda nodded sadly.

"You're probably right about that," he moved closer to Light and asked quietly, "If you don't mind telling me, what did happen that you had to change your clothes?"

"Misa decided to share her new self-named perfume with me," Light answered, "I smelled awful, so I had to change," he laughed, "Can you imagine how much worse it would have been if I'd come in here smelling like that?" Matsuda giggled and then noticed the mark on Light's hand as he reached across the desk for a folder.

"Did Ryuzaki see that when you went home to change?" he asked and Light sighed.

"Yes, and as you can imagine he wasn't happy about it.  She grabbed my hand and kissed it before I could stop her, showing off her new line of make up. I don't know what it's made with but I tried everything to get it off.  I guess I'll just have to wait for it to fade."

"Light…I know I'm not as smart as I'd like to be, but all this looks like she's trying to cause trouble between you and Ryuzaki, don't you think?"  Light nodded, but smiled at his troubled partner.

"I think she had it in her mind, but I made it quite clear to her that I wasn't interested, that there was nothing that would come between me and Ryuzaki.  I think she understood that, at least she said she did. And stop putting yourself down Matsuda, you know I don't like that."

"I know, I'm sorry, it's just habit," his partner apologized with a grin, "I feel better now; Misa showing up like that really had me worried."  Light smiled as he went through papers in the folder.

"Ryuzaki and I will be fine.  Compared to what we've already been through, Misa's about as much of a problem as a pimple on my ass; annoying but not life threatening."

They both laughed, and Matsuda nodded his head towards the door as Akita returned to the office, glaring at Light as he went back to his desk.

"How much you want to bet that he just had a conversation with his girlfriend which included instructions never to talk to you again?"  Light shrugged.

"Then that would be her loss," he answered, "Probably missing out on the only intelligent conversation she ever gets.  Now come on, let's get this done before my father comes in and chews me out…again."  Matsuda nodded as he laughed again.

As L neared his apartment building, his phone vibrated in his pocket.  He pulled it out of his pocket, holding it in his way against his ear.

"Yes, Wammy?" he answered.

"Young man," he heard, a term he hadn't heard in quite some time and one that always meant his mentor was displeased with him.

"Have I done something to upset you?" he asked and heard an exasperated sigh in response.

"First you left the restaurant without a word to me that you were leaving, making me sit outside the restaurant for at least half an hour before I finally call and you tell me then that you decided to walk home.   Now, I have come home and after getting a little work done, I go in to bring you something to eat and you are nowhere to be found, again without word one to me.  Did you not think that I might be concerned?"

"Oh…yes, I'm sorry Wammy, I guess I wasn't thinking properly," L answered, feeling all of 10 years old again.

"Obviously.  Although the possibility of anyone knowing who you are is nearly impossible, it is known that you are in a relationship with Light and if he has made any enemies during his work, your venturing out on your own without me knowing where you are is not advisable, you know this is true."

"Yes,  Wammy but…"

"Now I see by GPS that you are very near the apartment and I expect to see you shortly," Watari told him and then hung up.  L sighed and put his phone away.  Even at this age Wammy still had the power to shut him down and make him feel like a child, he didn't think that would ever change.  He smiled and picked up his pace; he wouldn't have it any other way.

Light dropped his keys into the bowl by the door as usual and sighed, happy to be home.  It had been a ridiculous day; between Misa and the incredible amount of paperwork he felt as if he'd run a marathon.  He looked towards L's office hoping to see the door open and was thrilled to see that it was.

"Welcome home," he heard from beside him and turned to see L walking towards him, a glass of wine in each hand.

"How did you know I'd need this?" he asked taking one of the glasses.  L smiled at him, leaning forward to kiss him, Light accepting the kiss hungrily.  "I needed that too!" he added when they parted.

"I just had a feeling," L answered as they both headed towards the couch in the living room, "Was the rest of your day as eventful as your lunch?" he asked sitting down.

"If eventful you mean up to my neck in paperwork, then yes," Light answered as he sat next to him, "I'm still behind and all I did was paperwork all day.  I'm surprised I can sit down with the way Dad was chewing on my ass."   L laughed as he toyed with Light's hair.

"Ahh, the joys of being the Deputy Director's son," he said, "I still don't understand why you enjoy enduring that kind of treatment."

"I don't enjoy that part of it, but it's just part of the job.  Don't start…" Light warned and L shook his head.

"I'm not saying anything else, it would only be wasting my breath anyway," he said then took a sip of his wine before continuing, "Have you heard anymore from Misa?" he asked.  Light shook his head as he sipped his wine.

"No, but I didn't expect to.  I think I made it clear enough to her, she seemed to understand." He answered and L nodded with a smile.

"Good, although I'm not completely convinced she is going to give up this easily," he answered draining his glass.  He stood up to get more only to be grabbed by Light and pulled into his lap.

"Whatever she's got up her sleeve I'll handle," the young detective told him, "But I don't want to talk about her anymore."  He pulled L into a deep kiss, his tongue forcing it's way deep into his mouth, completely overpowering L's tongue and taking it over.  L accepted the domination happily, mocking Misa in his mind that Light was his, and always would be, no matter what she tried, and that he was ready for whatever she might come up with.

Maki looked up from her station to see Misa coming into the restaurant, and she didn't look particularly happy.  She walked over to her, bringing a cup of coffee just in case.

"You don't look very happy today Ms. Amane," she said as she sat down the cup on her table.

"That ridiculous Ryuzaki came to my photoshoot today and threatened me!" she said angrily, "Why would I look happy?"

"Oh, I see," Maki said, "So he knows what you are planning?"

"He has no idea what we're planning, he's just afraid Light's going to realize he wants me instead," Misa told her, "Which means we have to make sure we really start working."

"Well, he did come in earlier today, he looked very upset.  As a matter of fact, he didn't even eat, he left before I could bring his food to him."  Misa smiled as she heard.

"That's good, that means he's really worried.  He realizes Light is no longer a teenager he can mold into what he wants.  Maki you have to make a move while he's in this state."

"What can I do? I only see him when he comes into the restaurant…" Misa thought for a moment.

"We have to find out where they live, Maki.  I'll work on it, and you do the same.  If they come in before I get back to you figure out a way to find out.   But I'm sure I can find a way.  Once we have that information we can work on phase two, getting you and Ryuzaki alone together."    Maki nodded, the idea of finally being alone with Mr. Ryuzaki making her feel warm.

"And once you are alone with Ryuzaki, you have to start making him really warm up to you, do whatever you have to do."

"Of course, that's exactly what I want," Maki answered, then excused herself as she was called to wait on another table.  Misa smiled as she took a sip of her coffee.

"If Light realizes that Ryuzaki is interested in someone else, I'll be the one he'll come to for support because it won't look as if I'd had anything to do with it. It will be perfect! Now…who can I get to tell me…wait I know…his mother, or his sister!  We got along really well before, they'll be happy to help me."  She reached for her phone certain of her next move.
Finally, next chapter of Obsessed is up, I apologize for the delay!
