Chapter 1

10:00am- Mello's POV

"Matt, would you come here please?"

Mello called to his lover from the bedroom. Matt was in his usual position; on the couch with the latest portable games console in between his rapidly moving thumbs. He was engrossed in the battles of Avatar, and didn't hear Mello call.

"Matt?" Mello repeated.

At that moment, Matt's character fell off a cliff, so when Mello called, a loading screen was flashed up on the console and Matt's concentration had broken.

"What's wrong Mello?" Matt responded.

"Can you come here for a minute please?"

"My games almost loaded and I want to finish this level, it's been driving me mad. Can't it wait?"

"But… I want to talk… and that's just a game…" Mello lowered his eyes and examined his hands. They were covered in scars from all the fights he had gotten into over the years. It was all due to his over use of emotions, so everyone had always said, and he guessed that was what was happening now, but, Matt was Mello's boyfriend, and he was meant to be important, at least more important than a stupid game.

He had been toying with the notion of leaving Matt for a few weeks now, ever since Mello had fallen from the top of ladder trying to change a light bulb in the bathroom and, calling out for help, Matt had been too engrossed in his game to even hear him. Mello had crawled into the room, head bleeding from hitting it on the corner of the sink, and looked to see Matt's shocked look at his current state.

That was the first time… ever since then Mello had been noticing Matt's disinterest in him, and had decided that today, he would decide. He would simply call for Matt, and if he put the game before Mello yet again, Mello would leave. And that's exactly what happened.

"Ok Matt", Mello replied, getting up from the bed.

He made his way the wardrobe, got out a small travel bag, and stuffed as much chocolate and leather garments he could into it. He walked out into the living room and turned to face Matt.

"I'm leaving" he said, "Goodbye"

Matt simply responded with a cheery 'cya' and continued playing, his eyes never leaving the tiny console screen.

Mello stormed out the door, slamming it behind him. He seriously doubted that Matt understood his context of leaving. Maybe when the battery died and Mello wasn't there to make his dinner, or to congratulate him on his latest game , Matt might realise that he wasn't coming back. Ever.

5 Hours Later- Matt's POV

"Yes!" Matt exclaimed as a high-pitched musical tune sounded from his game announcing his victory.

I finally beat that stupid level! Mello's going to be so proud of me!

The red-head cracked a massive smile as he pictured the proud look on Mello's face whenever he told him of an accomplishment.

He loved seeing Mello proud of him. Mello was good at everything, he was smarter than Matt, and one of the two being chosen for L's successor, he had a lot more friends than Matt, like the Mafia, government officials etc, he was stylish and took time to make sure his hair was sitting correctly. If he got into fights, he always won. Matt had so many reasons to be proud of Mello, but Matt was just Matt. He wasn't good at anything other than games. Well, he was good in the sense that he could do things, but he wasn't talented.

Matt's games were his own way of feeling accomplished. Apart from the fact that the heroes in the games had all super qualities that Matt envied for himself, Matt was the best at playing games. If there were any gaming tournaments or just small competitions in general at Whammy's, Matt would always win. If anyone needed any help in one of their games, Matt would be the one they could count on to get them through it.

Games were only games, but they were what Matt needed to feel special, needed and wanted.

And to make Mello proud of him was the greatest feeling in the world.

Now where is that guy… He wondered to himself.

He took a stroll around their tiny apartment searching. The bedroom they shared, no sign of him, nor was he in the dingy little kitchen, or the 2m by 2m bathroom.

Where is he?

Then Matt remembered him leaving a few hours before when he was playing Avatar. Mello had wanted something, but Matt's attention was on the game and trying to finish the level in record time, so the blonde left, probably to go shopping or something.

Matt reached for his cell and dialled Mello's number, a timid voice answered and Mello sounded like he was exhausted and relieved to hear Matt's voice.

Awww… I miss you to Mel…

"Hey Mel, guess what? I finished that level in Avatar! I finally beat it! And it was in record-"

Matt's profession was cut off by a loud tone on the other end.

"Mello.. i.. I didn't.."

But the dial tone rang as Mello hung up on his relationship with Matt.

Matt sunk to his knees, distraught by what Mello had said. He loved Mello, how could he go so wrong?

Same Time – Mello's POV

Mello couldn't believe that he had just left Matt. They had been together since they were children, friends at that time of course, but they had grown to need and rely on each other so much that it was just natural that they end up together.

But he had just left.

How am I going to survive without my Matt? My Matt. Every time I've needed someone to support me he's always been there. But I just walked out.

Although, things have been different lately, that's why I did it.

Actually… things haven't changed a bit. Matt has always had his games, and he has always been engrossed in them. Have I really been the one who chased him all along? It always seen like I had all the control, but, I guess he doesn't need me as much as I thought.

Mello had been wondering aimlessly around the streets, not quite being able to bring himself to book into a hotel. It seemed he still had a little bit of hope that Matt would come after him, wanting, begging for him to come home, telling Mello that he loved him and that he could live without games but not without Mello. No such thing had happened.

Eventually Mello ended up in the middle of a random park, sitting on one of those picnic benches, head in his hands and phone beside him, waiting (but not admitting to himself that was what he was doing), for a call from Matt.

Then… after what seemed like forever, his phone started ringing and the name Matt flashed up on his cell's small screen.

Maybe he loves me after all! Mello thought as he made a fumbling grab at his phone, dropping in on the ground, diving after it and answering whilst on his knees under the table.

"Matt? I didn't think you were ever going to call" Relief washed over Mello, and he could practically hear his exhaustion saturating his voice.

God I missed you Matt.

His fleeting relief was quickly shattered as Matt proceeded to tell him about that stupid game. Did Matt even notice that Mello had left him, that he had broken up with him?

"You bastard!" Mello shouted into the phone, "You have the nerve to call me about that STUPID FUCKING GAME, when I just walked out on YOU! You don't love me anymore; you replaced me with a game!"

Matt started stuttering, his shock at Mello's outburst was obvious.

"No Matt… this time I'm not listening! IT'S OVER!"

Mello hung up, weeping, distraught that all his negative thoughts, all his doubts about Matt's devotion were confirmed, and every ounce of hope shattered.

Damn these fucking emotions. I'm weak because of them. Matt will be fine, he'll just disappear into another game while I sit here and suffer.

Mello crawled out from under the table, grabbed his bag and ran out of the park and to the nearest train station, leaving his cell on the picnic table. He never wanted to hear from Matt again.

Oooohhh... will they get back together, or will the famous duo be split forever?

I do appreciate favs and alerts, but i'd love to hear what you actually think (apart from assuming you like it from the reviws and favs) :P

I'll stop ranting now....

REVIEW!!!

If you don't i'll.... Mello will snap a chocolate on your head!!!

Yea you're scared now...

OK, now i'll really stop.

XDXDXD
