Teasing To Please

By: Kikyo1027

Some people ask me how I felt when Mello left. How would I feel if he came back. How would I feel if I got news that he died. I looked at the concrete beneath my feet. Truth was, I would probably feel just like that. Cold, hard, and walked all over.

I wasn't all that surprised when Mello left. He always talked about leaving. How, if he was going to beat Near, he would need a bigger space. Somewhere where the playing field was even. I just always thought I would go with him. In the video games, the hero always comes back for his lover, no matter what.

" Matt?"

I saw the white-haired boy look at me blankly.

" Yes, Near?"

" You should come in. It's getting cold."

" Right."

I gave him I smile. Trying to show him that I was all right here by myself. That I would be just fine without Mello here. My smile must have failed, because Near shook his head as he walked away.

No wonder why Mello didn't like you.

I took another drag on my cigarette and watched as the smoke appeared in the air. Some stranger walking down the street coughed and looked at me like he was going to kick my ass if I didn't put it out. But at that moment, I didn't care if he did….

" Admit it, you missed me."

" No, I didn't actually. I was pretty content sitting here playing Halo 3-"

He kissed me harshly. Making me go weak for a second. Pressing me onto the carpet floor as he played with my belt buckle.

" Tell me the truth."

I looked him straight in the eye.

" Your right. I missed you."

He smiled. Probably feeling a sense of triumph, like he always did. I smiled. As, long as I gave him what he wanted, he would stay. I was sure of that.

Just as I was going to kiss him again the phone rang. He groaned as I got up to get it.

" Hello?"

" Hello, Matt?"

I paused. The voice sounded so familiar, but yet I couldn't identify it. A million faces popped into my head all at once. But then it stopped at one…

" Mello."

" Yeah, it's me. Listen, you have to do me a favor…"

He continued, but I didn't listen. I couldn't listen. I just felt cold, hard, and walked all over…
