Fire Pits and Blue Skies

Intro

~Matt~

When my cigarette reached its end I flicked it over the second story railing and toward the little wall-enclosed garden in the middle of the rundown courtyard.

Hopefully the plants didn't catch fire but then I couldn't really bring myself to care about that. The plants were dead and I honestly didn't see anything wrong with a giant fire pit in the middle of the apartment complex.

It was enclosed after all. Plus I could make Mello some s'mores. Did he even like graham cracker?

Leaning against the railing I looked up at the blue sky and just stared. Have you ever wondered why the sky was so blue? Of course some nerd would say it was because molecules in the air scattered blue light from the sun more than they scattered red light but I'm not thinking about science.

I'm actually not even thinking about the sky. I'm thinking about the color of the sky. Why? Well because Mello's eyes are the same color.

That was what first drew me to Mello; his eyes.

Short, but I will have more up in a bit. Promise. This is just the intro.

I'm well aware of how lame all of this seems so far but please bear with me on this. It get's better.
