Author's Note: Matt and Mello's story in song form!! YAY!

Here is how this works: The lyrics are in normal font and the italics are the directions for the video. Listen to the song first, then read the music video design, then listen to the song and read at the same time. Might take several tries, but trust me; IT ROCKS!!

Disclaimer: I do not own Death Note. If I did...SAY HELLO TO SMUT!! teehee. I also do not own Cry by Hilary Duff.

A Matt/Mello music video

((This video starts with the present day for the two guys, during the middle of the Kira investigation, but while they are separated still. Then it flashes back to when they were kids together, then Mello leaving, and back to the beginning again, going on to finding each other, then dying together. All in all: story of Matt and Mello))

Cry love

Zoom in on Matt waking up in a king sized bed and finding next to him empty, perfectly made

Cry war

Pan to the television, with the Kira name on it in the fancy lettering

Cry innocence

Switch to Mello, who has a gun pointed at the camera

That is lost forever more

Rotate around him so his back is to the camera and he shoots the gun ((person not seen))

Cry joy

Matt is sitting in front of the couch, playing video games in a very messy room; he just won something

Cry thief

Mello takes a chocolate bar from an unsuspecting child

Cry beautiful

Nighttime: Matt's lying in bed again; rolls over to see picture of younger Mello on nightstand

That is just beyond belief

Nighttime: Mello does the same thing, but w/ Matt's picture from when they were younger

So I...

Cut screen: They both roll over to their other sides and begin to cry

Cry at the end

Cut screen: Both being led ((a lot younger, about 6)) into Wammy's House, tears in their eyes

Cry cause it all begins again

Flash between: Mello looking around nervous, but with a mean look; Matt just scared

Here you are,

They spot each other from Matt's point of view in a large playroom

and so am I

Rotate to Mello's point of view, somehow they're closer, and in their room

And we cry

Both hold out hands to shake, but end up hugging instead, crying

Cry alone,

A couple of years later ((12 years old)) Matt is sitting on his bed alone, crying

Cry to me

Mello appears and pulls Matt close

Cry freedom

Mello pulls away ((now about a year older)) and looks at Matt

Then let yourself be free

Pulls Matt back in for a kiss

To shed the tears

Mello pulls away ((now 15 years old)) with tears streaming down his cheeks

That have to flow

Matt wipes them away with his thumbs

To hold somebody close to you

He pulls him back onto the bed, falling backwards and wrapping his arms around Mello

And then to let them go

Mello pulls out of his arms and walks out of the room, closing the door behind him

Cry at the end

Matt jumps up, knowing Mello has left him; now he's crying

Cry cause it all begins again

He throws a pillow at the door in a rage

Here you are

Mello is in front of a council of men ((THE MAFIA!!)), rotate around him

And so am I

Another rotation and Mello's in front of Soichiro, ((Now several years later)), bomb button in hand

And we cry

Pushes the button and the building blows up; he cries out in pain

(Instrumental Break)

Matt's lying w/ a bunch of beer bottles and cans around him on a bed and a bunch of cigarettes ((also several years later)) and he gets a phone call (from Mello). Switch to Matt getting Mello out of the rubble of the blown up building. They embrace, then kiss, ROTATE AROUND THEM!

Cry peace

They are lying together in Matt's (now clean) bed

Cry hate

They both sit up, startled by something on the TV (Kira's logo again)

Cry faithlessness

Mello turns to Matt with a grin, but Matt shakes his head and refuses something

Then just have a little faith

Mello smiles sweetly and holds out a hand; Matt gives in and grabs the hand, Mello pulling him up from the bed

Cry at the end

They kiss one last time, then turn and walk to their respective vehicles

Cry cause it all begins again

They get on/in their vehicles (motorcycle and sports car) and nod, saying their ready; they drive off

Here you are

Pan passed Matt's head in his car

And so am I

Pan past Mello's helmeted one on his motorcycle

And we try to be true

Cut to now Matt's outside his car, about to be shot; Mello's in the front seat of the truck, eyes widening at the piece of paper w/ his name on it in the window to the back of the truck

Try cause we're only passing through

Flames engulf Mello and bullets are shot at Matt and they cry out each other's names

Music at the end: Their eyes close and they die; cut to a black screen with Matt and Mello walking away, hand in hand, slightly glowing around the edges
