A/N: Hey second chapter up. I don't usually post with barely any reviews.
Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note or it's characters.
Friends
Matt chased after Mello. If he told Nora that he liked her, he would beat the living tar out of him. Matt didn't want her to know just yet.
Mello suddenly turned a corner. Matt turned to follow and ran straight into Nora, knocking her down. He landed on top of her, his face just about two inches from hers. Time just froze like that, and Matt and Nora's faces had both turned a deep red.
Matt scrambled to his feet, embarrassed. His heart was beating so loud that he wouldn't doubt that everyone who was there could hear it. Nora still sat on the floor like, shocked. Jasmine bent down to help her up and Nora slowly climbed to her feet.
Matt finally screwed the courage to look up and saw that Jasmine and Near were both there, along with Mello, who was in hysterics on the floor. He was laughing so hard that he had tears coming out of his eyes.
"Whoa, I so did not see you coming," Nora said quietly, laughing. She was surprised that Matt had been that close to her. He was cute, and by the way that he looked, he was a gamer.
"Well, we'll see you later," Jasmine said as she pulled Nora and Near away. Matt looked at Mello, who was still laughing. "That was not funny," Matt said.
"Yeah, your right," Mello said, "that's wasn't funny, that was hilarious." He started laughing again, making Matt angrier and angrier. "Oh good god, you should have seen the look on your face! That honestly just made my year. Oh boy, you really screwed up now."
Matt stomped away to his room. It was bad enough that he ran into the girl he had a crush on, but Mello just had to laugh about it. Matt didn't see what was so funny.
When he got outside his room, he could hear noises coming from inside. It sounded like someone was playing video games. His video games. He slammed the door open and was surprised to see Nora sitting there, playing Resident Evil so calmly. She had half a chocolate bar in her mouth, and the game controller in her hands. "Hey, how are you doing?" she said with a mouthful of chocolate.
Matt did, indeed, have a huge crush on Nora. But nobody, and he meant nobody, messed with his stuff. When he didn't answer her, she turned back to the television, and started playing again.
"You do know that's my video game, right?" he asked.
"So," was all she answered.
"And that's my junk food?"
"So,"
"Are you asking for a death wish?"
Nora paused the game and turned toward Matt. "I dare you," she said tauntingly.
She stood up as Matt walked toward her and tried to take the game console out of her hand. She twisted her body and flipped over him. She then did a quick spin kick. She hit him square in the back and sent him flying over the bed.
Matt got up, dazed. He had never been hit by a girl before, much less one that was strong enough to send him airborne.
"How did you learn to do that?" he asked her. She did a back flip and landed on her feet in a ballet motion. "With lots and lots of practice," Nora said. "So, are you going to let me play or not?"
Matt nodded his head, fearing she would do it again. She sat back down and started up the game. Matt got up and sat down by her, watching her play.
'She's really good at this game,' Matt thought. When she finally died, the scoreboard came up. She signed her name as number one of the top ten, beating Matt's highest score by over a hundred.
"You've got to be kidding," he cried. Not only was Nora cute, but she was also a good fighter and an excellent video game player.
"What, are you jealous?" Nora remarked. She seemed to be rubbing it in his face. "You know, I can help you get a better score. You just have to do what I say."
Matt looked at her as he replied "Thanks." 'I'm in love,' Matt thought dreamily.
Sorry the crappy chapter ending. Please review.
