A/N: I don't own Death Note
--
There were many of men in suits and one nerdy looking guy. The first shots came from the opponent; Matt quickly dove to the side behind a counter. Taking a breath, he rose and fired a few shots, catching some of them in the most vulnerable spots.
Matt was outnumbered, he knew, but in order to make his blond happy, he had to get through this and live just for a few more days. He could hear footsteps approaching and the exit happened to be on the other side, just beyond the suit looking guys. Matt cursed under his breath, he had only one shot to do this and he'd risk it all just to save Mello.
Bracing himself, Matt leapt up and right into the guys in suit, kicking two of them in the face. Others started shooting, catching the gamer in the shoulders, one caught his left leg and another managed to only scratch the surface of his right cheek. He tumbled and ran out of the door, blocking it from the outside. Matt found barrels of oil and dumped it at the door and all over the place and dropped his lit cigarette and the whole building went up in flames.
Outside, Mello had already gotten the information from Lidner and sent her on her way. Mello waited for Matt to appear. In a matter of minutes, the whole building was engulfed in flames. His heart stopped for just a second.
' No… Matt, he'll come out any second. Any second now, he'll come rushing out.' Mello thought, he didn't want his fear of losing his friend to overwhelm him. Seconds later he found a figure stumbling out from the side of the burning building. On instinct, Mello raised his gun. The figure stopped and cried,
" M-Mello…" Then it collapsed.
X-X-X-X-X-X-X
" Damn them guys." Matt muttered his vision blurred considerably due to the fatal wound on his shoulder and a not so fatal wound on his left leg and right cheek. His whole body felt like it was on fire and pain rattled his body. The gamer felt along the wall, opposite of the burning building and made his way out into the vast parking lot. The first thing he saw through his blurred vision, was a yellow-haired figure. One name registered into his mind,
" M-Mello…" Matt cried with every ounce of his strength and his vision went black. Hearing his name, Mello ran towards his friend who was laying in a heap, he quickly picked the boy up and hauled him down the road, feeling something warm and sticky run down the front of his chest, he stopped to find that Matt was seriously injured.
" Damn it Matt…" Mello whispered and he continued on his way, taking a detour to the hospital. There he screamed for a nurse to take his Matt in and a nurse came scrambling up to him with a stretcher and Mello placed the red head onto the contraption. She hauled him into a room where a doctor was just about finished with scrubbing himself off and getting ready for his next patient. Mello sat down in a seat, waiting for the doctor to come out and tell him what happen to his friend.
The information that he got from Lidner, was what he had already suspected; Kira was definitely Yagami Light. It was only natural that was the reason why he was the current 'L'. There could be no other explanations for this, other than that of being the next 'L' so suddenly and so quickly.
Hours passed by and Mello took out a bar of chocolate, unwrapping the paper, he took a bite from it. He was nervous about the results, he just hoped that his Matt would be fine. He didn't know what to do if his only hacker was dead; it would just mean that he'd have to find a new one.
Few minutes later, the doors opened and Mello immediately stood up. The nurse pulled Matt out on the stretcher and he went up to the doctor that was exiting last.
" What's his condition, doctor?" Mello asked. The doctor stopped and looked at the blond who had a chocolate bar in his hand. The doctor sighed and replied,
" Your friend, he has a serious wound on his left shoulder, if he had been hit a little further to the left where his heart is, he'd probably wouldn't be here right now. But he doesn't have long to live by the looks of it despite the serious wound on his shoulder."
Mello was confused, " Matt doesn't have long to live? Why?"
" You didn't know that your friend here has lung cancer and it looks like it's in the last stage too..." The doctor explained. Mello didn't hear the rest; he was so blinded in rage that he ran after the nurses that were taking his Matt to his room. He burst in after finding it and strode over there and pulled him up by the collar of his hospital gown.
" What the hell, Matt! Why didn't you tell me about this information?! Matt wake up, dammit!" Mello cried, shaking the sleeping patient. The doctor had ran after the raging Mafia leader and pulled him back, making Mello release the gamer. They pulled the blond outside and Mello cried out, staring at his red head on the bed,
" The hell Matt! I thought that if you loved me, you would tell me everything!"
The door closed, separating the two lovers.
' I love you, Matt. Please just don't leave me.'
