Okay so this is just a quick story I decided to make, so I apologise if it's not as good as expected or something. But please enjoy and review :)

It was about 8:30pm at Wammy's house and all the orphans were getting ready for bed as the curfew was 9:00pm.I was walking through the hallway back to my room, I happened to pass Mello's room. I could hear faint murmurs coming from the slightly opened door, being as curious as I was at the time, I peeked my head in just for a second to catch Mello kneeling on the side of his bed. What is he doing? I peeked my head in again, realising Mello was only going to catch me if I made a sound because his back was facing me.

"…and I pray that one day Near will…"

Huh? Did he say my name? What did he say? Is he praying? Well he does wear those rosary beads but I never thought of him as the praying type.

"…I know he doesn't really like me, but give me the strength to be kinder to him and…."

This was a side of Mello I didn't know. I thought it would be strange if anyone walked pass and saw me poking my head in Mello's room, so I opened the door a bit more to allow myself to squeeze into his room.

"…start of as at least friends…"

As I was slowly closing the door it creaked, my heart skipped a beat and my body froze.

"Huh? Is someone there?" I could hear Mello using the bed to pull himself up. I need to get out quickly. This time I quickly opened the door again, but as was walking out I heard Mello call my name. I turned around and face Mello, trying not to panic.

"Ahh…Hi Mello..."

"W-what are you doing here?" His cleansed face was confused and looked for an explanation on my face. It was obvious that he looked well after his clear skin, as a teenage girl would do he probably moisturises just before bed.

"I…just came to say goodnight…so… goodnight." With that I tried leaving but Mello grabbed my arm.

"Wait. Did you hear what I was saying?" His hand gripped tight around my wrist, he was slowly trying to pull me back in his room.

"Uh…nope. No. Not really. If you don't mind I really have to be going now. Goodnight." Mello loosened his grip so I pulled my arm away.

"Well...okay but I just want to let you know, that I was praying for you." It's noticeable he was trying to act as he said in his prayer, kinder to me. I had to act as if I didn't know what he was talking about.

"Oh…really? Well I thank you, I'll be going now." I walked out of his room and he began to follow me.

"I want to be…friends with you." I was trying to walk down the hall as quickly as I can without making it look suspicious but he kept at my side, looking at my face that was hidden from looking down.

"Do you…think it's possible?" He questioned me without looking away, he kept his eyes fixed on my face. I stopped as I had reached my room, I opened my door and stood between the hallway and my room, facing Mello.

"Yes, it's possible that I want to be more than friends with you."

And with that I saw a glimpse of Mello's shocked face, walked into my room and closed the door. I leaned on the door and gave a big sigh, I froze as I realised what just happened.

Wait…did I just say more than friends?
