But with this one, I pretty much have to whole story in my mind, so i am planning on finishing it. I hope you enjoy.3 x]


"Dammit, Dammit, DAMMIT." Mello sweared, looking at the placement list, once again.

"Hm..." Matt said looking at the list. Third again, and he wasn't even trying hard. "You know Mells, it's the same every week, I don't see why you're always surprised that you're second."

Mello glared at Matt. "You don't understand, idiot. I work fucking hard to get first, and Near is always first, and all he does is play with his fucking toys." Mello said through his teeth. They had started to walk back to their room by then.

"Whatever…" Matt said as they got to their room, not caring about the conversation anymore because he found his Gameboy Advanced laying on his bed.

Mello went over to his bed to get his chocolate stash from underneath his bed. He hung over the side of his bed to look under his bed and- "Fuck.."

"Out of chocolate, again?"

"Yeah… you have any cash?"

"… I lent you cash two days ago." Matt said, pausing his game and glaring at Mello.

"I'm gonna pay you back, I swear."

"Pfft, sure you will."

"I really am, when we get allowance."

"Whatever…" Matt said again, reaching into his back pocket to get his wallet.

"Thanks, man." Mello said, grabbing the money and running out the door to go to the convenient store across the street.

Mello began to toss and turn in bed, again. He did this a lot. When your mom and dad get murdered in front of your eyes, you're not likely to have a healthy conscience for a while.

His tossing and turning woke up Matt. He got up and walked over to Mello and shook his shoulder. "Mello, wake up."

Mello shot up, causing Matt to jump back from the sudden movement. He was all sweaty, and there was one single tear rolling down his cheek. Matt stood a few feet away from his bed, staring. Mello had never reacted this bad to one of his dreams.

"…Uh… you okay, Mells?"

Mello wiped the tear off his cheek. "'Course I am, faggot." The way his voice broke at the end of his sentence didn't really help him.

Matt gave him a worried 'sure you are' look.

"No really, I'm fine." Mello said as he turned on his radio. Music helped him fall asleep a lot of the time. Some weird song was just ending as the Mello laid back down, and Matt crawled back into bed.

The next song came on this a soothing tone, perfect to lull someone to sleep.

It's the way that you blush when you're nervous
It's your ability to make me earn this
I know that you're tired, just let me sing you to sleep.

Matt could already see Mello's chest rising and falling in a steady beat. But the song had caught his attention, and he continued listening.

It's about how you laugh out of pity
Cause let's be honest, I'm not really that funny
I know that you're shot, just let me sing you to sleep

Matt hoped Mello didn't laugh at his jokes because he felt bad they sucked so much…

If you need anything, just say the word
I mean anything
Rest assured if you start to dose
And I'll tuck you in,
Plant my lips where your necklaces close

Matt always gave Mello stuff, but it seemed like Mello never gave Matt anything... not even a birthday gift… he paid him back money he owed him, of course, but that was his to begin with.

It's those pills that you don't need to take
Medicating perfection, now that's a mistake
I know that you're spent, just let me sing you to sleep

This just got weird, because Mello had rapid cycling bipolar disorder and had to take Lithium pills, but Matt liked him better without them.

It's your finger and how I'm wrapped around it
It's your grace and how it keeps me grounded
I know that you're weak, just let me sing you to sleep

… No comment on that one..

If you need anything, just say the word
I mean anything
Rest assured if you start to dose
And I'll tuck you in,
Plant my lips where your necklaces close

While you were sleeping I figured out everything
I was constructed for you and you were molded for me
Now I feel your name coursing through my veins
You shine so bright it's insane, you put the sun to shame
Oh, no.

They were the perfect friends, Matt was calm and Mello was loud. When they were together they were neutral.

If you need anything, just say the word
I mean anything
Rest assured if you start to dose
And I'll tuck you in,
Plant my lips where your necklaces...

If you need anything, just say the word
I mean anything
Rest assured if you start to dose
And I'll tuck you in,
Plant my lips where your necklaces close

Matt liked the song for some reason, even though it was a little cheesy. It was nice, it reminded him of… no, no. It didn't remind him of ANYONE. Matt decided he should go to sleep before any other weird songs came on.
