Death Gods Only Eat Apples

[nokotchi]

Sakura was purely shocked. Her eyes were wide and her face was a bright pink. "Y-you like me?" she stammered, unable to grasp what was happening.

 

[.chasm.]

L stared at Sakura for a while with wide eyes, chewing his thumb, then nodded. "As much as I like cake," he said quietly, sliding his chair even closer to Sakura.

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura met eyes with L, knots beginning to tie themselves inside her stomach. "As much as you l-like cake? ... Really??"

 

[.chasm.]

L nodded, tilting his head again. "As much as I like cake." He paused, looking down for a second. "Maybe a bit more." He looked back up, chewing his thumb.

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura's eyes were still very wide and her face was covered by a heavy blush. She opened her mouth to say something, but was speechless.

 

[.chasm.]

L tilted his head further, chewing on his thumbnail. "Do you like me as much as cake?" he asked quietly, sliding forward in his chair again.

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura shook her head. "No, I don't..." she paused for a moment or two before adding, "I like you much, much more." She gave L a faint smile.

 

[.chasm.]

L stared down before Sakura elaborated, then looked back up quickly and pulled his hand away from his mouth to smile. "Really?"

 

[.chasm.]

L stared down before Sakura elaborated, then looked back up quickly and pulled his hand away from his mouth to smile. "Really?"

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura's smile grew and she nodded briskly, a bright red blush intensifying over her face. "Really."

 

[nokotchi]

Double~

 

[.chasm.]

L slid his chair so it was right next to Sakura's, still staring at her. "What does this mean, then?" He tilted his head. "What happens now?"

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura didn't answer, but instead she leaned in and kissed L.

 

[.chasm.]

L was a bit taken aback, wobbling on his chair before steadying himself by plaching his hands on Sakura's arms. He started to pull away, leaning back.

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura placed her hand on the back of L's head, deepening the kiss and not letting him pull away.

 

[.chasm.]

L tried to pull away again, sliding his chsir back and dropping his hands from Sakura's arms.

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura still held L solid, not wanting him to pull away.

 

[.chasm.]

L finally relaxed, closing his eyes and leaning in towards Sakura again. He lifted his hands to Sakura's shoulders, not knowing what else to do.

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura smiled gently in the kiss now that L had relaxed. She deepened the kiss slightly more, snaking her arms around L's neck.

 

[.chasm.]

L, still clueless about what to do, pulled Sakura a bit closer, keeping his hands on her shoulders. He shifted on his seat again so it was easier for his to keep his balance.
