L had been away for almost 10 weeks now. He was stationed in a foreign country in Europe while he was working on solving a case that had taken way too long, and it required him to be there in person. You missed each other intensely as the time away grew, and kept up your contact by phone and video calls, but you'd be lying if it didnt put a strain on your relationship. It was rare that you got an opportunity to chat, and even when you did, it didnt last overly long due to L's tight schedule with no down time.

But tonight, he had the entire evening off, which was an extremely rare occurance, and the icing on the cake was that it was valentines day.

After organizing the call together and waiting all day, you finally see it connecting as you smooth your hair out, unable to wait. After a second of buffering, a calligraphy L pops up on the screen, making you frown.

"Hello darling."

You hear, noticing he had the voice filter applied as well. You then look to the corner of the screen, seeing that you were visible to him.

"That's no fair. I can't see you but you can see me? And you have the voice filter?"

You pout, and he pauses.

"I know....It's for safety measures. You know that."

He mumbles, and you look away as you sink into the pillow, quite disappointed.

"I was just really excited to see you.."

You softly say as you draw small circles on the sheets with your fingertip.

"Awe, (y/n)...please don't be sad..."

He says, and you pout even more.

"(y/n)...."

He whines, and you don't budge. He then sighs, and you hear a click.

"Is that better?"

He asks, the voice filter now turned off, but he was still behind the calligraphy L.

"That's still not fair!"

"I dont have a camera on this laptop!"

"That is a goddanm lie and you know it!"

You retort, but cant help but laugh.

"I'm sorry (y/n). But no camera on my end, okay? We'll be able to see each other in person very soon, you just have to be patient for 2 and a half weeks."

He says, and you finally sigh and give in. He was stubborn as it was, and there was no use wasting time you could spend catching up.

"Fine... you win. Anyway, besides the workload, hows Europe been? Is it pretty there?"

You ask, settling into a comfy spot on your bed as you look into the small dot that was the camera on your laptop.

"Yes, it is. They have me constantly moving locations to have extra security and avoid being tracked, so I've done a fair bit of traveling. I'm currently in Paris, and it's quite beautiful here and I've especially enjoyed all the bakeries. My French is pretty rusty though, so talking to detectives and working on the case has been a bit of a challenge in that aspect."

He says, and you smile.

"I'll send a few photos when I get the chance. But I wish you were here with me, sweetheart. It would be quite the valentines day if we were both in France together."

He continues, and you picture how romantic that would be while you feel your heart flutter a little.

"Yea. That would be lovely...very romantic to spend valentines in the city of love."

You smile, and he continues.

"We could go sometime. I could take you to the bakeries, see the sights, all that.. it would be perfect for a honeymoon."

He says, and your eyes widen slightly at the mention of the word 'honeymoon'.

"You're really thinking about that already?"

You laugh, and he does so as well.

"In time, perhaps."

You hear him answer, and you smile as you look down. Things are silent for a moment or two, before L speaks up again.

"Happy Valentine's day by the way, Did you get everything I had sent a few weeks ago?"

He asks, and you look over to the bouquet of roses and box of chocolate strawberries that he had sent that arrived for you yesterday.

"Yes, thank you so much. I wanted to send you something but... what with the constantly changing locations it became a bit tough."

You laugh, shifting just a bit.

"That's alright, All I need is to see you and I'm happy as can be."

He says in his mellow voice, and you blush.

"Well I actually...Sort of got something for you, if you'd like to see..."

You then mumble shyly, and he takes a moment before saying something.

"What's that?"

He asks, and you shift a little before looking at the camera.

"You know how it's Valentine's day..."

You begin, and he says a small 'yes...?' Before you continue.

"Well I....have a surprise for you.. It's moreso for when you get back, but I'd be happy to show you now."

You then mumble, and you hear him shift a little.

"What is it?"

He asks, and you look up before slightly smiling.

"Wait a second, okay?"

You say, then jump off screen and out of sight before he can say anything.

The 'surprise' you had for him was that you had bought a new set of red lacy lingerie, and along with it a sheer fur bordered dressing gown to go with it. Your boyfriend usually went crazy over you wearing this kind of thing, especially if it was red, which is half the reason you got it.

Putting it on, you make sure that you look amazing before you turn back toward your laptop.

Taking a deep breath, you shuffle back into view, covering yourself with your dressing gown.

"Show me what's underneath, (y/n)~"

He flirts, and you blush. You then look into the camera as you let the silk sleeves gently slip down, revealing a brand new Valentine's themed lingerie set.

He was silent as you stood there. Not being able to see his face, you shift a little before looking to the screen.

"W-well? Say something..."

You mumble, and you just hear him whisper a '...wow...'

"You look amazing....It's truly a shame I can't be with you..."

He purrs, and you shiver.

"Well, I needed to let you know what you're missing out on back home..."

You say as you lay down, and you feel him smirking, even though you couldnt see him.

"Are you teasing me?"

He asks, and you smile.

"Maybe. What are you going to do about it?"

You remark, trying to be cheeky.

"You know what I would do if I were there..."

He flirts, and you smile as you twirl your hair around your finger.

"What would that be...?"

You ask, and he laughs lightly before sighing.

"First, I wou-"

The call disconnected suddenly, stopping him from finishing his sentence.

"No!"

You say as the calligraphy L disappears from the screen, and your home page replaces it as a crash report pops up.

Scrambling slightly, you open it up and call again, and before long the L pops back up.

"(y/n)? Are you there?"

He asks, slightly worried.

"Yea. I'm here."

You say, and he sighs.

"Good."

He says, and you smile as you pull on the dressing gown.

"Ah-what are you doing putting that back on?"

He asks flirtatiously, and you smile lightly as you let it slip back off.

"You look so amazing.."

He says, and just by his tone you could tell he was getting hot and bothered.

"This really isn't fair....I need you so bad now..."

He says, and you laugh lightly before running your hand down your hair.

"You can have some fun with yourself if you want~"

You purr, and you could tell he was surprised.

"That's certainly bold of you.."

He says, quite obviously turned on by your little suggestion.

"I can give you a little show, since I'm not with you in person..."

You tease, and he lightly laughs.

"How could I say no to that?"

He asks, and in response you begin to get into a more sexy mindset, honestly acting as if you were a little lingerie model that was on a bit more of the naughty side.

You then hear him slowly unzip his pants as you smirk, and you hear him start to breathe a bit heavier as you feel his eyes on you. It was enough to get you going a bit more, as it had obviously been a long time since either of you shared time like this together. Soon enough, you find your own hand creeping down as well.

The next little while was fairly self explanatory, as he watched you while you listened to him. But it had a level of connection that almost led you to feel like he was more there, which only drove you more crazy.

Eventually, you could hear his heavy breathing behind the screen become more rapid, and you continue while you feel like you're getting closer as well.

"Mm-(y/n)..."

He mumbles, his breath hitching for a moment as you hear him speed up just a little.

"(y-y/n)...I'm-"

He whispers, and you smirk as you exaggerate a little, making sure he knew what he was missing. You knew the fact that he couldn't touch you was driving him crazy, and you run your hands up your body as you look into the camera.

"S-stop teasing..."

He says between heavy breaths, and you only do so more in response, before you cause yourself to reach your peak. Obviously seeing this set him into overdrive, and not moments later his heavy breathing pauses for only a few seconds.

"Ngh..A-Ah!"

He yelps as he presumably reaches his as well, and you relax lightly while you cool down a little.

"M-mmh..."

He groans, finishing up as he sighs softly, and you you both catch your breath as you relax just a bit.

"I love you sweetheart..so much..."

He pants, and you smile softly.

"I love you too."

You sigh, and you lie down again.

"Ah-Damn...."

He mutters, and you look up to the screen as you wrap yourself in a blanket.

"I made a bit of a mess..I forgot to...Nevermind."

He mumbles, and you laugh lightly.

"Did you now?"

You ask, and he sighs.

"I'll be one second..."

He mumbles, and you can't help but laugh while he mutes his mic. After 5 minuets or so pass, he unmutes while you hear him settling in again.

"Are you all better?"

You tease, and he sighs.

"Yes."

He says, and you stretch as you yawn, glancing down at the time. You were 8 hours ahead of him, and it had gotten rather late without you realizing.

"Are you getting tired my love?"

He gently asks, and you stretch again as you sigh.

"Yea...Just a bit. It's almost three am here."

You mumble, and he shifts lightly before speaking.

"Would you like me to go so you can get some sleep? I didnt realize how late it was for you, I'm sorry."

He asks, and you shake your head.

"If I go to sleep soon will you stay on with me? If that's okay..."

You ask, and he laughs lightly before speaking.

"Of course."

"Thank you. I'm going to go get into something more comfortable, I'll be back in a second, okay?"

You say as you shift out of the blankets, and he lets out a small dissatisfied groan.

"But you look so amazing...."

He mumbles, and you smile.

"That may be true, but this stuff is not all that comfortable, and you couldn't pay me to sleep in it."

You laugh, and slip off screen to change. You come back a few moments later in your more comfortable PJ's, and snuggle back into bed as you move your laptop next to you.

"Is that my shirt?"

He asks as you bring the blanket over yourself, and you look down.

"Oh, yea, it is."

You laugh, and he sighs as you snuggle into the pillows.

"I wish I was able to be there with you..."

He says in a saddened tone, and you look away as you sigh.

"Me too...I miss your goodnight kisses...Your hugs...I just miss....You."

You say, looking into the camera while you smile, but it soon fades as you realized how much you did miss your boyfriend.

"I miss you too (y/n). Every day I think of you more."

He says, and you draw circles on the sheets with your fingertip as you sniff.

"Hey, it's only a few more weeks until we get to see each other again. Don't be sad darling. I'm sure the time will fly by."

He softly tells you, and you nod while you look away.

"I'm with you now..."

He says, and you look up for a moment.

"I-I know...But it's not the same..."

You respond quietly while you shift a little.

"...I understand fully my love.. But for now, just...Try to get some rest, okay? I'm right here if you need anything at all."

"Okay."

You answer softly, and close your eyes. Even if it was apart, and even if it made your heart ache that you spent so long without seeing one another, it was a lovely Valentine's day.

~♡~time skip~♡~

Finally, the day arrived that L was coming home. After so long, he finally was on the way back to see you again, and you couldn't be happier.

Anxious, you wait at the airport terminal for your boyfriend to arrive, smoothing out your hair as you look at the time. Any minute now.

After what seemed to be an eternity, you see him coming out of the arrivals, wearing a grey zip up hoodie over top of his plain white shirt. He then looks around for a few moments before spotting you, and unable to contain yourself, you run up to him before he opens his arms for you slightly bracing for impact. Once you get there and almost tackle him into a massive hug, he spins you around as he accepts the gesture with his own warm embrace.

"It's so good to see you again."

He mumbles as he sets you down, taking your hand into his while you gently cup his cheek. Without warning, you then push your lips to his, and he melts into the gesture almost immediately as he traces your jaw.

"Let's go home, okay?"

He smiles, and you look up before nodding, wiping some tears from your eyes.

"Yea."

You gently say, and he softly takes your hand, guiding you to the car.

"Oh, right, I got you a souvenir too. This ones from Paris, I found it for you after we talked that night"

He says, unzipping his backpack he had brought on the plane before pulling out a small thin box with an elegant bow on top.

"You didn't have to get me anything."

You smile as he passes it over, and you open it gingerly.

It was a small necklace with a rose shaped pendant delicately hanging on it.

"It's beautiful..."

You say, and he kisses your cheek as he brings you in closer.

"Not as beautiful as you (y/n)....I can't describe how it feels to have you in my arms again."

He mumbles, and he rests his head on the top of yours.

"Its great to be finally home. I missed you so much sweetheart."

He then continues, kissing your lips very softly before entering the car along with you, heading back to your house that truly didnt become a home until the both of you were there.

(And yes, he did get to see your new lingerie in person once you two got home)

A/N: HEYYYY SOOOOOO IM NOT DEAD GUYS WOOHOO

alright, but real talk I'm really sorry I left so suddenly, I fell into a bout of bad writers block that became somehow almost a year long, and mostly I felt uninspired to write. On top of that I've been a busy bee in my personal life🐝! I honestly didnt know if things would be continued for this book, But i have been keeping up to date on comments and reads, and I feel like it's time to start updating again! (Especially since I rewatched DN and saw that spindly emo frog we all love so much again lololol)

Now, this doesnt mean regular updates will be on the horizon, but the fact is that this book is not dead!! It's just going as slow as a snail going upstream a river of molasses in an ice storm. So sorry that it's been so long!!

Ps, theres a whole load of chapters in the works, but none of them are done yet and it's a whole ass mess. But there are at least a good 10 that are still a wip, so stay tuned!!
