Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note, nor do I own Matt, Mello and Near.
Okay, I lied. I own L and he is on my bed, handcuffed, and surrounded by sweets and roses.
Comments are more than welcomed! Also, I have a pen name, and if you read closely, you'll see it in this chapter. O.O
Also, thank you Shinsetsu13 for being the first person to comment. XD
"I'm glad you could make it, Matt" Ryuuzaki said as he reached over the coffee table in order to retrieve a strawberry tart. "Please, have a seat" Matt felt his cheeks burn as he sat in the chair next farthest from L. Out of the corner of his eye he spotted Mello raising an eyebrow. Matt felt his cheeks turn a deeper shade or red. Dammit. How am I going to survive this?
There was an awkward pause while the group (except for L, who seemed to be oblivious to Matt's blushing) tried to make sense of the situation.
L cleared his throat. "I've wanted to talk to you three for a while. How is the Wammy house treating you?" Mello stood up and pointed to L. "I'll tell you how they're treating me! They're treating me like they already know I' going to succeed you!" Mello crossed his arms and sat down with a smug look on his face.
Matt did a face palm and Near chuckled. L however was staring wide eyed. "You seem to have only grown more confident over the years. That's a good trait for being a detective." Mello beamed. "It is, isn't it?" He looked at Matt, who was starring at the floor. "Matt, is the only person who's more confident than me." Mello spoke with am evil grin on his face "He announced the other day that he masturbates. And he said it right in front of the Nurses during the check-up!" Matt could feel his face was on fire. His cheeks were beyond blushing.
"No I didn't! I-I- I never said that!" Matt stole a glance at L. He was unfazed by the vulgar comment. L opened his mouth and everyone stared at him; making sure to absorb his every word. "If it's alright with you" L took a large bite of his second tart, then added "I'd much rather we change the subject.
Mello crossed his arms. "Well there goes the night" he said as L stood up to leave. After the topic of Matt masturbating died off, the four of them talked about L's past cases, Materialism versus Vitalism, and how they were dealing with pressure.
Mello was too preoccupied with self praising to notice matt had been silent almost the whole night. Near, who only spoke when spoken to by L, had said more that Matt.
When the group stood up to leave Ryuuzaki cleared his throat "Matt, I hope you don't mind, but I would like to discuss something with you"
Matt gulped.
