Listen as the wind blows through the trees
As our hearts beat as one
As the wind whispers in your ear
As I say I love you
Forever and Always

-----------------------------------------------

We're best friends. I'm his only friend. That makes me feel special, considering I have something Near doesn't. Every day I don't think there's a minute we're apart, except for class but that doesn't count. We do homework together, we eat together, and we even play together (not in that way you freak...). He looks like a male angel next to my girlish excuse for a boy's body. Somehow I know we'll be together forever. Matt and I. I know we will. It's just one of those feelings you get in your gut sometimes.

I glanced at the clock, then at Matt. We shared a room, but not a bed. I wish we di- Scratch that. Just because I look like a girl doesn't give me the right to think like that. The room is kind of small but is large enough to hold two twin-sized beds, a dresser with all our clothes, a desk, a fair sized T.V., and all of Matt's video games (shocker huh?). Maybe it's not that small now that I think about it.

Matt stirred a bit in his sleep and muttered something I was unable to hear. Sometimes he was so cute; I don't see why he doesn't have any other friends. Strangely, Matt doesn't seem to popular around here. Sure the teachers like him like they like Near and me, but none of the students like him very much and I just can't see why. They don't particularly hate his guts and want to stab him repeatedly; they just won't ever talk to him.

Well, they're missing out. Matt's a great kid and I would do anything for him. The wailing of Matts alarm broke my trance and made me fall off the desk chair which I had been sitting on. I heard Matt groan. His arm flopped around, looking for the alarm. When he found it he slapped it a couple times, not really looking for any button in particular. It turned off. Thank god, I hated the noise his alarm made. Slowly I got up off the ground and walked over to Matts bed. I shook him, which I normally did if his alarm failed.

"Matt, Matt wake up it's time to get ready for school," I said as I gently shook him. He stirred around a bit.

"Mmmm… Just five more minutes mom…" He replied.

I sighed. Matt has never been a morning person nor do I think he ever will be. Me, being the complete opposite of Matt, loved the mornings to death.

"Oh no," I said in my marvelously crappy acting voice, ", it looks as if all your video games were stolen."

Just then Matt bolted upright. He hopped off the bed and went straight to his video game cabinet and took quick inventory. I heard him growl slightly. As you can tell he's very protective of his video games.

"You liar, they're all here!" he exclaimed.

Did he really count them all? Had he just done the task I had thought impossible? Of course he did, he was Matt after all. Once again I sighed.

"If I hadn't lied you'd still be in bed right now, I sure as heck am not covering for you in class again," I said.

The last time I had covered for Matt not being in class, I pulled up some last minute, lame excuse for why Matt wasn't there. "He was outside all day in the rain and caught a cold." I had said. Yeah you may not think it was terrible, it actually would've been a good excuse had it actually been raining the day before. The teacher laughed at me and told me to go kick Matt's lazy butt out of bed.

"It's not my fault you can't come up with excuses from the top of your head," he replied grumpily, sitting back on his bed.

"I wouldn't have to if you'd wake up on time," I threw a pillow from my bed, which hit him square in the face. A smile tugged at my lips, ", go get dressed so we can go eat breakfast."

Matt sighed and dragged himself over to the dresser. Slowly he opened the bottom drawer and took out a black and white striped shirt, jeans, and a belt. Form the dresser he then dragged himself to our bathroom, opened the door, and closed it behind him. He was never the one to lock the bathroom door. Did that mean he trusted me? I thought about it sometimes, going in there when he was taking a shower.

But I'm not gay! It's just, I wonder if he'd trust me still. Why am I questioning our relationship? Of course he'd still trust me; I'd never go in anyway. Even if I did I know we'd still be together forever and always. I went to go sit on my bed. The T.V. remote, as usual, was lying by Matts bed on the floor. Quickly I snatched it up and clicked the T.V. on. It was some weird anime show. "Anna would like this," I muttered to myself.

Anna was our friend, well my friend, even though she was a year younger then we were. Matt and I were 14 and she was 13. She wasn't the smartest kid at Wammy's House, not even close to Near, but she's a smart kid. Always on the A honor roll and always a few points behind me on tests. I think she may be the closest thing Matt has to another friend, I don't think Matt likes her all that much though.

Whenever she's with me he gets a weird, sorta angry, look on his face. Gee, if Matt would allow it they could be like brother and sister. Like Matt, Anna has a strange love for video games. She doesn't have nearly as many as Matt but she has close to about half his collection. Also she has a strange thing for anime and I swear her anime collection matches Matts video game collection! If that's even possible.

Just now Matt came out of the bathroom.

"Ew, what is this crap Mel?" he asked, wrinkling his nose as if he smelt the inside of a dumpster, he also used my nickname, which I actually kind of like.

I looked over at him. The towel, I now prayed was around his waist, was being used to dry off his maroon colored hair. He was completely naked. Something I thought Matt, of all people, would NEVER do in his whole existence here on planet earth, he just did. My eyes had a will of their own so they started to scan Matts body. Not only was his face perfect, his whole body was perfect! 'No, stop Mello, this is weird, Matts gonna think you're weird and never talk to you again then he won't have any friends!' my brain screamed at me.

The last part repeated over and over again in my mind.

'…He won't have any friends…'

'……… He won't have any………'

'………………Not any……………'

My eyes shot back at the T.V. before Matt had noticed. Unfortunately that didn't seem to matter.

"Heh, hey Mello, how come your face is almost the same color as my hair?" Matt asked with a little, uncomfortable, laugh.

"Uh," Oh god I had to come up with something fast, ", I'm embarrassed you caught me watching this show, I've kind of liked it for awhile and I watched it sometimes when you were gone."

"Oh," he seemed to have bought it, though he seemed kind of sad, "So the almighty Mello watches Sailor Moon?"

I was gonna say something, a comeback, but I decided against it and just shrugged and smiled at him. He stared at me for a little then went to go change. I sighed quietly in relief and turned off the T.V. Wow, I'm surprised he bought it, it was a terrible lie. The option of Matt having no friends was just terrible.

"Ok Mel, let's go eat now!" Matt said, emerging once more from the bathroom.

We walked down to the cafeteria together in an awkward silence. I can only imagine how many gay babies were born. My head was racing with conversation starters, jokes, anything I could think of to break the wall of silence between us. Matt broke it before I had the chance.

"So, what do you want for your birthday Mel?" he asked, looking at me with a smile that could break an angels heart.

"Oh, um," I had completely forgotten about my birthday, I think it's three days from today, "I don't really want anything special, maybe like a Hershey bar or something."

Matt sighed. "God Mel, I get you chocolate every year, why not think outside the box?"

"Can I think it over, I'm sure by the end of the day I'll have something in mind" I offered.

Matt nodded. I was really looking forward to chocolate. Thanks a lot Matt. We entered the breakfast room. A majority of the Wammy House kids were already here. We went to go get breakfast which was pancakes and sausage. I scoped the cafeteria for Anna, we always sat by her. Finally I spotted her sitting at a table in the corner.

I smiled and waved, Matts expression turned from cheerful to livid just like that. Ignoring that, I walked over to the table, Matt shuffling behind. "Hey Mello," she said, smiling as I sat down beside her, "Hey Matt." Matt completely ignored her, he didn't even glance in her direction, he just sat on the other side of me. She looked hurt, even though he did this every day, but she forced a weak smile in his direction then turned her attention back towards me.

"So, Mello, what do you want for your birthday, it's three days away isn't it?" she asked.

She wanted to know too. "Yeah, well, I really wanted a new set of prayer beads, mine are kind of beat up," I admitted.

There was a crash. The cafeteria got quiet. Slowly I turned my head to the right, where Matt was sitting. His food, instead of being on his tray, had been strewn across the table and the tray was overturned. The chair had been knocked over. Matt was on his feet, his hands on the table were clenched into fists.

"M-Matt, what's wrong?" I asked grabbing his arm.

He jerked away from me. "I'm not hungry anymore, I'm going to class early today" he said. He walked towards the cafeteria doors then left. That one line played in my head again.

'…He won't have any friends…'

We travel our separate paths
Meeting when we feel a need
So why does your seeking of others
Create this confusion in me
Am I jealous
