"The last time I went out to eat was to the Sweets and Bake. The best dessert and pastries you'll ever had..." Ryuzaki answered back to staring forward.

There was a hint of a thick blush appearing across the man's cheeks. A very first.

"Ah, that's interesting," Light remarked, as the taxi slowed down in front of the restaurant. "I guess it's the first time you've come out with a friend, in that case. Some would call this a date." He shrugged, smiled and paid the taxi fare.

"A date.? Why not." Feeling the taxi going into a stop and gets out. Just then, it hit him to what Light said blinking in shock. 'A date...?'

Light chuckled as he led the dark haired man inside.

"Think of it as you will. Me? I'm not too concerned with definitions and boundaries. The food here is nice, that's it."

The duo enters the restaurant with a waiter there addressing them and guides to an empty booth handling some menus too. L in the position was holding the menu using his thumbs and index finger scanning the pages.

Light chuckled.

"I've brought a lot of my dates here in the past, and I know what I like. A nice pork pie with barbecue sauce. Have you settled on something?"

Everything on the menu looks good but L has been eating nothing but sweets, the taste would be nasty. However, it's a try. "..I'm not sure.." The blacked haired said looking down showing off his emotion for a first.

"No worries," Light said smoothly. "I've ordered for my dates before."

He called the waiter, placed his own order, and ordered chicken in honey barbecue sauce for the detective. The dish was both sweet & savoury.

"Also, please give the handsome young man a Sakura Fountain drink. With extra sugar & ice."

Setting the menu on the table hearing Light placed their order thinking about that chicken in honey barbecue sauce. Will it taste very sweet? Sour? Gulping to the thought resting his chin on his hands that was laying on top of his knees pants.

Light was closely studying the other man, and smiled.

"Hey, just relax. It's lunch, not an interview. Though of course you'd ace any interview. And don't worry, I think you'll like what I ordered for you."

The waiter came carrying the detective's drink, a Sakura Fountain, with extra sugar and ice. It was a colourful and pretty drink.
