Near was sitting in the common room –ironically, no one else frequented there- playing with his white puzzle that held no picture when the game was finished. There was no point to the puzzle; it was only extremely complicated, which might have been the reason Near always played with this particular puzzle.

He only focused on his puzzle, nothing else and never bothered to notice the spying child behind the corner to the common room's entry way in Wammy's house. The spy went unnoticed day after day, always silently watching Near play with his puzzle, until today.

"Near," the spy showed himself with a scowl on his face. He was only an inch above Near's height, dressed in a black-clad outfit with long sleeves, and long pants that covered his cold, bare feet. The boy wore a girlish haircut, his blond hair grazed his shoulders, and his bangs covered his eyebrows completely. "Have you seen the exam's results? You being first place all the time pisses me off! I should have paced as the top; not you!"

The other child who played with his blank puzzle ignored the blonde and his usual complaints about being second in Wammy's house. Near was the polar opposite of his rival, Mello, and was dressed in white button-down pajamas that clearly didn't fit the small child. He sat with one knee raised and the other at his side. His finger curled around his natural snow-white hair with his left index finger, as his other hand reached for a white piece and with great precision, accurately placed it on the board, snapping it into place.

The irritated blonde was beginning to grown from his jealousy to anger by this other pale, small child who took a vow of silence emotionlessly.

"Damn you, Near!" Mello kicked the other child's puzzle, scattering all the pieces that had been placed so carefully on the board. "I hate you!" He grabbed the collar of the pale one's buttoned shirt, lifting him from the linoleum. "Just go and DIE!"

Near didn't flinch, not even slightly, nor did he speak one word.

The blonde cringed, afraid that if he just let the small boy go without something that would leave a mark, it would count as another loss against the pale child, and he couldn't let that happen. He needed something that would cause some sort of emotion to cross against the boy's expressionless face. But what had the blonde not done already to this introverted child?

Near sighed impatiently and took Mello's head in his own hands.

The shocked blonde froze; the usually quiet, introverted boy actually took action!

Near slowly drew in the blonde's face, just enough so they were only centimeters away from each other.

"N- Near!?" Mello's face heated up and his voice broke as his blush spread.

"Shh…" Near quieted the blonde with a small kiss, but didn't pull back, neither did Mello.

Mello would have to do something that would top the pale boy's actions, but his shock was still in play. Then as Near pulled away from the kiss, Mello pulled him back with a more forceful, passionate kiss. Mello tangled his hands in Near's white locks, keeping Near's lips pressed against his own.

"Nnngh.." Near's eyes squeezed shut and his cheeks grew pinker from Mello's sudden intensity.

Still powerful and in control, Mello parted Near's lips to make way for his tongue into Near's mouth, turning the kiss from an innocent peck to an intimate play of the tongues that stunned the usually emotionless child into a startled one.

But Near didn't want to be this vulnerable towards the blonde; he searched for some strength to hide this uncomfortable feeling. In his fight for emotional blindness, Near was able to kiss back the blonde with more intimacy than expected.

Mello still didn't want to lose to Near, even though this was beginning to excite him in unexpected ways, and there was a high chance that another Wammy orphan could catch them both as they were. So Mello pulled away, both boys heavily panting, and dragged Near into a corner of the common room, away from prying eyes. Once hidden, he ignited the kiss from before and began to slide his hand up Near's over-sized shirt, searching for a place that would make Near just as excited as Mello. Then without delay or time in between, Mello grinded against Near's lower region with his own.

He couldn't help but gasp in surprise, his mouth parted from the blond child's. His complexion graced with a heavy red blush could now be seen by Mello, vulnerable once again. "M- Mello. . ." Near looked at the blonde in confusion with ecstasy in his dark grey eyes and his legs turned inwards to cover his manhood. "Don't you think that this might be going way too far for your childish games?" He looked right into the eyes of the blonde without flinching away and showing no signs of embarrassment even in his current state.

In an attempt to hide both his humiliation and growing need of touch, Mello cringed then replaced his feeling of being scolded with a mischievous grin. "Too far, Near? But don't you like this?" Mello cupped the front of Near's pants with satisfaction. "Don't you like being touched by guys, Near?"

Unintentionally, Near bent towards Mello's hand and moaned slightly, unable to control his arousal. "D- Doesn't this m- make you queer as well, M- Mello?"

Mello pulled back slightly because of Near's accusation; he wasn't sure himself of this possibility, but he did appear to turn towards homosexuality. 'Am I?' Mello thought. 'No, it's just a game, Mello, get a hold of yourself, damnit!' Frustrated, he slammed his free hand right next to Near's head. "Fuck you! God damn homo!" The hand on Near's erection squeezed hard, forcing at whimpers from the unfortunate Near and creating a huge smile on Mello's face. "I am not like you."

Near winced a little at the blonde's words, but it went unnoticed.

Finally feeling that he had topped Near, Mello was able to leave with a grin of accomplishment, but before he left through the archway he added, "Oh, and Near?"

No response came from the pale boy left in one of the common room's corners, just like any other child's toy; quiet and abandoned.

"Come to my room after everyone is asleep. I'm not quite done with you.

This time Near looked up. "What will happen if I don't go?"

The blonde smiled. "Then I'll just have to come up to your dorm."

Then Mello left without another word, leaving Near with more emotion than Near had ever felt before.

'This might just be a game to Mello,' Near told himself. 'There's no reason to give Mello what he selfishly wants. If I don't go, I'll be safe. Mello isn't that irrational.'

Satisfied with his thought, Near went back to his puzzle and began to piece it all back together again. That's when Near noticed a change in his blank puzzle, Mello's chocolate had stained one of the pieces, perverting the rest of the game.

Was this what Near was going to become; what Mello had wanted?

Near had really met someone that equaled to himself, a rival, someone predictable in his unpredictable behavior. Someone who Near found of interest.

Maybe he would visit Mello's room that night after all.
