Blue.
Every time again I was overwhelmed by this color. Their clarity, their gentleness, their rest ..
Every time.
And yet I'm fascinated by their coldness, their strength, their power. The power to transform me into a jelly
Well, that was not quite right. It was more like the carriers of the colour, were responsible for this effect on me. Blue eyes. Ice-blue eyes. Mello's eyes.
Yes, Mello. My best friend since I can remember. I've often seen him in the eye, but only now realize their beauty.
But there was something else. They radiated something new, something interesting.
We sat in complete silence. The only audible sounds in the room were the flickering of the fireplace and our occasional whisper. Most of the time we just listened to the sounds and looked into each others eyes. Mello's eyes ..
He averted his gaze.
I leaned over to him, whispering softly.
"Mello? What is? "
"Nothing .."
"The truth."
"Your eyes ... I was ... lost. "
For a while I remained silent. Not a single movement .. I just looked at him.
Slowly I put a hand under his chin, turning his face to mine.
"Mello .. I .. "
"Yes ..." He looked at me again with this unfamiliar to look. It was positive in any case ... just ... new.
"I .. like you. " His eyes widened as if all the ice melted in them at this moment.
"I .. you too. " I withdrew my hand from his chin and laid it gently on his.
Gradually I realized what Mello's eyes expressed. It was something that would change our lives forever ...
It was love.
"I love you," whispered the two of us almost simultaneously, as the corners of our mouths went up in a smile.
He moved closer, looked me in the grass-green eyes. Tenderly, he held my hand, while our thin lips approached. We kissed and it was breathtaking. Then I knew it very well.
It was new for me to feel that way, but I would not deny it.
Blue is the colour in which I fell in love.
Blue is love.
