Broken link (LxLight Fanfiction)

Twenty One - Unknown

L, my L, raped. It must have been before he left but the question was, who did it?

{3rd person POV}
(L's childhood, Age 6)
The radio in the police car blared information that no listener could ever decipher, L's cold and barely clothed body shivered violently as rain pelted against the windows. He didn't know what was happening; where he was going or even why they'd took him away but he knew he was relieved.

L's self-acclaimed father had put up a fight with the men who'd took him; 'pigs' he had called them but L later found they were policemen. His dad had kicked, screamed and bitten his way to the police cars where he was cuffed and forced down into the car as he spat and demanded a phone call.

When they arrived at the station his dad was took into a small room where an even smaller (and very fat) man shouted at him for answers. L was taken into a separate room by a man in a long tan-coloured coat.

"What's your name kid?" The coat man asked.
"Its L..." Lawliet whispered, he didn't dare tell them his full name incase his dad found out and hurt him.
"L? Thats a letter, whats your name? Y'know what do people call ya?" The man said.
"My names just L."

The man's lips twisted into a confused frown and he continued asking other questions that L couldn't answer.

Meanwhile L's father or "Richard Fielding" was refusing to answer any questions, not because he didn't know the answers but because he knew he was guilty...

{Light's POV}
L's eyelids gently fluttered open, "what time is it Light?" He croaked as he rubbed his eyes. "Its 12..." I said with a slight giggle as L's red eyes widened im shock.

"I don't understand," he whispered in a monotone "I haven't slept for more than an hour at a time since i was a child and suddenly..." He trailed off into silence and looked off at the wall, deep in though.

"And suddenly?" I prompted. "Suddenly I feel like I could sleep for the rest of this year."

I looked at L, he was tall, pale, slightly anorexic-looking still but the bags that constantly hung under his eyes for the longest time seemed to lighten as though they'd never been there.

"L y'know I really love you and I want to help you. I need to know what happened to you I can't stop thinking of it." I suddenly said before I clasped my hands over my mouth.

"What happened to me? Oh you mean... that." He replied.
"I'm sorry for bringing it up I just want to help put him behind bars he needs to be brought to justice!"
"He's been brought to justice Light. It was very long ago. It happened a lot throughout my childhood. They found him out and he was put to death a few years ago." He said with no tone or feeling whatsoever.

He was silent for a moment and I felt terrible for even speaking of it until he said, "I don't need your help Light, I don't need anything from anyone. I just want to be loved because of who I am not for who I could be. I know I'm weird, I know im not all that attractive but I don't mind that anymore. Things change as you get older, you stop caring so much. Just don't treat me like a charity case."

Then he turned over and fell back asleep.
