[A/N] Thanks again for the reviews, and i'm going to try to put up 2-3 more chapters this weekend, but no promises!

...

[A/N] So I was prepping myself to write than, well, YouTube. Let's try this again!

...

[A/N] Ack. YoutTube again. Now I have to go read chapter two to remember where I was going with this...

...

Matt yawned, waking up on Sunday morning, but smiled as he felt a body next to his. The beds were pushed together. He got up and went to take a shower.

Mello woke up shortly after, feeling cold. He looked next to him and sighed, hearing the shower running. He got up and began sorting through the papers he needed for the day while waiting for the bathroom.

Shortly Matt walked out of the bathroom, a towel around his waist. Mello blushed again than grumbled, rubbing his cheek, willing the blush away. Matt chuckled.

Mello stood up and leaned into Matt, giving him a peck on the lips. Matt's eyes widened and his cheeks darkened a bit. His fingers subconciously found their way to his lips, brushing them lightly. He smiled and waited for Mello to step into the bathroom to take off the towel and change. He wore his usual stripes, jeans, and googles around his neck. His gameboy shoved into his pocket. His papers in a bag slung over one shoulder. He pulled the gameboy out and played while he waited for Mello, leaning against the wall near the bathroom.

Mello had hopped in the shower, careful washing and brushing out his hair, and towel drying it. He brushed it out once more and brushed his teeth, than walked out in a pair of boxers.

Matt's eyes widened but said nothing. Mello almost always wore atleast pants.

Mello smirked and tossed on his shirt looking for a pair of jeans. He found what he was looking for and pulled them on, slipping a chocolate bar into his pocket and his pre-set bag over his shoulder. "Ready for breakfeast?" Mello asked.

Matt mumbled a response, assuming it was a yes Mello walked out. He walked down to the cafeteria (dunno if the Wammy's house had a cafeteria or what XD) and took his normal seat, and matt dropped down next to him, shoving his gameboy into his pocket and picking at a bowl of fruit he had grabbed.

"Your diet is so plain." Mello said rolling his eyes.

"Not everyone is a freak and eat whatever they wanted and still be skinny and muscled." Matt retorted.

"You work out enough..."

"So? If you want me to remain sexy don't question my diet." Mello's eyes widened and Matt smirked.

Mello said "Fine, eat your fruit..." Defeated. Something he wasn't fond of being.

...

After classes Mello walked into the room, and Matt yawned, dropping his books on the desk in one corner of the room.

Mello copied him with the books. He walked over to Matt and pushed him against the wall he was near and pushed his lips to the red head's.

Matt pushed back against him, but Mello was stronger, pinning him against the wall. The two boys' lips moved against each others, almost as one, when Matt gently bit Mello's bottom lip.

Mello pulled back a tiny bit and whispered "Impatient much?" As he smiled. Matt pouted and pushed his lips against Mello's again. Mello chuckled but gently slid his tounge into Matt's mouth.

Matt responded quickly but wasn't settling for bottom. They 'tounge wrestled' for a little while when, somehow, Matt won. He smirked and bit Mello's lip. Mello just groaned and pushed him against the wall again. "Silly boy. Thinking you can top me? Good luck." He said, pulling away and leaving Matt pouting again.

...

Mello stretched out, putting on his pajama pants and settling in for bed, when Matt pressed against him and kissed his neck. Mello groaned quietly than asked "What the hell are you doing?"

Matt chuckled and said "Accepting your challenge." With a devilish smile.

Mello groaned and said "Tomorrow i'm tired."

Matt growled and said "Too bad." As he pulled Mello into another kiss, while straddling his chest. He pulled away when Mello moaned.

Matt grinned. "Looks like we know whose on top." And smiled a cute little smile, rolling off Mello to his side of the bed.

Mello whispered in his ear as he was almost asleep "I love you."

...

The next day Matt told Mello he wouldn't be around till later in the night.

"Hey Near!" Matt said cheerily as he sat down next to Near, helping him with his puzzle.

"Does Matt need anything?" Near asked, looking at him, but a small smile on his lips. He enjoyed his time with Matt, but Matt and Mello had been together more. He inwardly frowned because that meant... Matt and Mello were together. He didn't know what Matt saw in that hot headed blonde. He was mean, and annoying. But, he considered, he himself wasn't much company. Mello and Matt got along, and hung out, and actually conversed rather than the sparse conversation he and the red head had.

"Nope, just missed the little albino." He said, smiling. Near mentally sighed, knowing he only meant it as a friend but smiled wider. Matt knew Near liked hanging out with him, but hadn't had time lately. He enjoyed hanging out with the intelligent kid. He was only a year younger, 12, but he acted much older. Matt didn't mind.

"Mmm..." Near said, placing the pieces strategically. "What do you think of me?" Matt asked suddenly.

Near considered this. Well, I suppose I do like him a lot, but I wouldn't say I have a crush on him. He certainly was fun to hang out with, but we were just good friends. Besides, if I did have a crush on the red head I couldn't tell him. Matt would just tell Mello and Mello would hit me. He mentally cringed. It extremely unpleasent. I hate how much the blonde beats me up. I'm just smarter than him. He wasn't going to dumb down for the blonde to like me, but I did wish the hot head would see that I wasn't Near the genius all the time, I was also Nate Rivers, the kid. And Nate needed friends. The other Wammy's kids aren't intellectual enough to interest me. But Mello, being his close second, intrigued him. I could have more than a one sided or simple conversation with him. I could have a nice conversation with Matt without having to watch what I was talking about, which made the other kids think I was showing off. They didn't frequently talk to me because of that.

"I consider Matt to be a good friend of mine." Near said while twirling his hair, a nervous habit. He plunked some more pieces into the puzzle.

Matt smiled and said "You're a good friend of mine too."

Near considered this. Did he just say that, or did he mean it? And did he really like me? That's good news. I have been lonely lately. I missed him. But I have my action figures. I don't get lonely, I can always call L or something. L can usually make some time for me... It sucks that he's older and working all the time. I missed him. He was here last a year ago. I liked when he lived here. He was like a big brother and best friend I never had...

Matt looked at the albino who had stopped his work, which was a very rare display of sadness. Probably his lack of friends.

Matt got up and walked over to him, pulling the smaller kid into his lap. He may have only been a year younger but acted a lot younger. Not really, but emotionally, he never had a parent figure or friends to help him grow. Matt felt really bad for him. He hugged Near and said "I'm always here for you if you want to hang out, ever."

Near's eyes widened but he smiled softly and fisted a hand in Matt's shirt leaning into him. It was a very rare display of any emotion, and of them all, affection.

"Thank you." He said and smiled up at Matt, than leaned over and slid off to the floor. He continued the puzzle, which was enough to tell Matt that he had helped the younger kid feel much better. He smiled and continued his assitance in the puzzle.

...

[A/N] Ahem. I don't know if I just added to much Matt and Near for a MattxMello story.

I edited and re-edited this last part a lot, so if it has grammar/spelling mistakes, thats why. Sorry about that ^^;

I need to add more Matt and Mello fluffiness. I think I lost that in this chapter. Next chapter will jump to the weekend, and there will be plenty of Matt and Mello fluffiness. I think that I will probably start a NearXMatt or NearXMello story soon...

Flames will be used to dry my hair.

Taking a shower after I publish this.
