Death Note Fan Fiction ❯ It's Not Love, I Swear ❯ Fooling ( Chapter 2 )

Mello had been in the shower for hours now. Matt was starting to get worried, but he knew Mello was smart and he wouldn't do something to harm himself. The red-head had thrown some clothes on and had left his room. His room was stuck right in between Mello's and Near's, they shared the three bedroom apartment.

 

He decided to get some pop tarts and sit in front of the TV to watch a random show. It was weird he didn't want to play some videogames, but after last night, he didn't feel like himself at all.

 

After a few minutes he heard footsteps coming from the bedroom area and then much later, Mello appeared through the hallway door wearing black leather pants and a black wife beater. In his mouth was a piece of milk chocolate, making him look just like normal.

 

“'morning,” Mello said casually, taking the chocolate away from his mouth.

 

Matt looked at him oddly. “Good morning…” he slurred.

 

He jumped in the couch without looking at Matt. “Do you know where Near is?”

 

“He left yesterday morning, remember?” Matt answered.

 

Mello nodded, and then looked directly at Matt. “You have to promise you won't tell him anything!!”

 

The sudden change of mood startled Matt a bit but he decided to nod. “I won't.”

 

“Perfect,” Mello said to himself and took another bite from his chocolate bar.

 

“May I ask why?”

 

“It's just…” he looked at Matt, then at his chocolate bar. “I just don't want him to know.”

 

“For no reason?”

 

“You have to promise you won't tell anyone!”

 

Matt raised an eyebrow. “Sure…”

 

“Well, I kind of like Near,” Mello confessed, his cheeks redder than ever.

 

Matt almost choked on his pop tart. “Like?! As in… Oh my god!!”

 

Mello got even redder. “Don't react like that!!”

 

But how could he not? Mello freaking liked Near. His Mello liked Near. “I'm sorry,” Matt managed to say. “I didn't expect it, I mean, I… I don't know.”

 

“Yeah well…”

 

“Does he know?” Matt asked.

 

“No,” Mello quickly answered. “Well, at least I think he doesn't. I haven't told him.”

 

“Do you plan to?”

 

“I…” Mello paused and looked into Matt's deep blue eyes. “It would be useless, after all, Near is asexual.”

 

Matt laughed. “Maybe he is, but wouldn't you like to know for certain.”

 

Mello looked away. “Not really, I'm satisfied with the way things are.”

 

“You can't possibly be,” Matt retorted.

 

“You know Matt,” Mello said, getting closer to him. “I don't understand you.”

 

“Due explain.”

 

“Why aren't you jealous?” Mello asked.

 

“Jealous?!” Matt blurted, his cheeks turning red. “Why would I be jealous?”

 

“Last night you said you loved me,” Mello answered. “That's how we ended up together.”

 

Matt looked away. He couldn't remember a thing while Mello seemed to recall every detail. “I was drunk last night.”

 

“I know that, but I don't think you were lying. Besides, your face right now says everything,” Mello commented. “So, do you admit it?”

 

“So what if I love you, huh?!” Matt suddenly exclaimed. “You love Near.”

 

“Yes, but I wouldn't mind fooling around with you once in a while.”

Mello is a slut. Lol.
