Love Me Closely

Chapter One

I Luv You

Day by day, night by night, my life went on without change in Wammy's House. I went to class when I had to, did the bare minimum work, and played games the rest of the time. It was nice and I had finally grown content with the way things were. But Mello, he always like to throw me for a loop, especially when things were finally normal and routine.

"Hey Mel, what the Hell are you doing?" I asked as I walkeded into our shared room. Mello, the boy I had been rooming with ever since we both came to Wammy's, was balancing on several boxes in order to reach into his closet.

"Oh fuck-" Mello gasped as he lost his balance and fell onto the floor.

"You okay?" I questioned as I hurried over to help him up. It was no secret to the other boy that I help feelings for him, though he chose to deny any advances I made. None-the-less, I kept at it, if only for myself and to at least let him know that someone cared about him and thought he was the best.

"Th-Thanks," Mello blushed a bit as he took my hand and stood up.

"So what the Hell were you doing in there" I asked once I had seated myself on my bed, PSP in hand.

"Looking for something," Mello huffed, still slightly red in the face. "Or at least I was until you came in and ruined my concentration."

"Hm," I nodded. "Whatever. Go back and look for it now then."

"That would mean you leaving," Mello stated.

"And why's that?" I asked, looking up for a moment.

"Why do you think?" Mello demanded as he pulled a chocolate bar out of who knows where and started eating it in his normal angry-looking style.

"I dunno," I shrugged. "You get yourself another girlfriend?"

"No stupid. Why would I care if you were here then!?"

"Dunno," I shrugged again. I knew I was being mean, but I really did not care. I was bitter that he was always going out and having random flings while I was always stuck watching him from the sidelines.

"You're an idiot Matt," Mello snapped, turning to me briefly before rummaging through the boxes on the floor once more. "Put two and two together for once."

"No need to get moody," I sighed, going back to the discarded game on my bed.

"Just leave."

"Whatever," I said, rolling my eyes behind my goggles and leaving the room. Maybe Near would be in the Lounge and offer me some sort of entertainment.

I did not end up going back to the room until nine o'clock, seven hours after Mello had originally kicked me out. I figured that had to be enough time for him to find whatever he was looking for.

I wandered slowly through the halls and toward my room. There was a eerie silence since it was study block for the entire orphanage. I never liked study block very much and opted more toward playing games through the entire time and cramming only when I had to. Some people said if I could be third while barely studying, that I could surpass Near if I actually tried. I usually just shrugged and ignored those comments, especially since they annoyed Mello to no end.

By the time I made it back to the door I had killed another ten minutes. That had to be enough. I opened the door quietly since I know Mello would be studying like everyone else right now, and stepped into our room. Lo and behold I was not disappointed and saw Mello bent over what looked like history homework at his desk. The one thing that did surprise me was the gift-wrapped package sitting on my bed. I was used to Mello getting gifts from girls since it was a frequent occurance now, but it was a rare occasion for me to get one, especially one this big.

"Hey Mel," I announced as I went over to my bed to look at the package.

He jumped a bit at the sound of my voice before speaking, "Oh. Hey Matt."

"So do you know who dropped this off?" I asked, getting straight to the point.

Mello shrugged, "Dunno, check the tag."

I took his advice and looked all over the outside of the package to find a name. When I could not find one, I opened the gift to see if it was inside, but I gasped when I saw the PSIII there. I had been saving my money up to buy it myself, but it was still going to take me another few weeks.

As I regained my composure, I noticed the small card that had fallen onto my bed. It was written in a code of some sort, but it did not take me long to figure out what the name on the card was.

"Well shit," I gaped.

"Hmmm," Mello hummed as he continued to study.

"Don't play dumb Mel," I sighed. "What's this all about?"

"It's a gift," Mello smirked, turning around to face me.

"I mean, why are you giving me such a nice gift?" I asked.

"Why do you think?"

"Don't play this game Mello. What's with the gift?"

"Take a wild guess," Mello whispered in an oddly seductive voice in my ear. Sometime while I was talking he had moved over to me and was in front of my bed. "I know you can put two and two together Matty."

"What the fuck Mello?" I yelled, pushing the slightly shorter boy away.

"Damnit Matt," Mello shouted back. "I'm trying to say I fuckin' love you!"

"Oh shi-" I began, but Mello cut me off with a kiss.

Please read and review, it'll bring joy to my life!!
