hi, amaya!! :3 may i ask for a fluffy L x reader where the reader gives him a back massage? cuz there's no way his back doesn't hurt with the way he seats/walks. (o_o)
Notes: gah this was such a cute idea i couldn't help but write it before some of my other reqs I've never given or received a back massage so i didn't really know hwo to write the actual massage bits. 😭😩 but i hope this was fine
Warnings: n/a just pure fluff
Characters involved: L Lawliet
Gender-neutral reader, you/yours
Your arms almost automatically wound around his waist as you sat down on the couch beside L, with your chin coming to rest on his shoulder even as you felt his body stiffen below your hold.
"I'm working."
Even if he tried to sound stern, you could all but hear the blush in his voice as L continued fiddling with the sheets before him.
"You've been working all day."
He hummed at that but chose not to do anything else to acknowledge your words.
The sound of his silence had you letting out a sigh as you buried your face into his neck and tried to use your proximity to distract him from his work.
"C'mon baby, you're going to break your back if you keep on slouching like this for hours on end."
"Scientifically speaking, that is all but impossible."
You let out a small huff at his words, but were quick to swap out your annoyance for curiosity as an idea popped into your head.
L wasn't really one for physical affection, but over time he had come to get used to your touch. However, one thing he definitely wasn't used to was the feeling of your hands trailing over his shoulders and then moving down to his back, applying slight pressure as you went.
"What are you doing?"
You shrugged at that, paying no mind to his evident curiosity as you instead focused on massaging his back, or at least trying to.
"I told you, working like this for so long isn't good for your back."
You continued gently pressing down on his back and shoulders as you spoke, but were quick to come to a stop the second you felt him move away.
For a second you couldn't help but wonder whether you had done something wrong, but your worries were quickly quelled as you watched L set down his paperwork and return to your side.
"I suppose I could take a break for a while-"
he finally turned to you then, with a soft smile ghosting over his lips as he shifted his position to lean more towards you rather than the back of the couch.
"-But only if you continue for a bit."
You giggled at his request but chose to oblige as you once again let your hands trail over his back, this time with warmth pooling in your stomach as you realised L Lawliet had just given you permission to take care of him, something he up until recently only reserved for Watari.
