I'd like to say thanks to my reviewers so far! You guys rock! ^^ Anyway, on with the show!

P.S. Sorry it took so long, I've been busy/lazy XP

You leaned over and you kissed me
I felt my knees go weak
You leaned over and you kissed me
I couldn't even speak
You leaned over and you kissed me
With a passion flowing free
You leaned over and you kissed me
Sparks flew that we could see

Thank god Matt was there to hold me up because I swear if he wasn't I would've fallen over by now. This would explain why he was so jealous, even though I thought it was because he thought Anna was going to become my new best friend but I was way off. I felt so happy, even though I still didn't really know how I felt about him. Then I realized I should probably tell him why I was trying to kiss him shouldn't I?

"Matt, the reason I was trying to kiss you was… Because… I wanted to find out if I loved you or not but it kind of malfunctioned so I couldn't tell…" the blush on my face grew a darker shade of red.

Matt smirked. "Still wanna find out?"Just then I realized Matt hadn't moved his mouth from where it had been. His warm breath sent shivers down my spine. I couldn't speak, I tried but the words got caught in my throat. Desperately I wanted to say: 'Yes Matt! That's more than I could ever ask for!' Instead I quickly nodded. He smiled sweetly. Slowly, ever so slowly, he brought his lips to mine.

I closed my eyes and leaned into the kiss. It felt… Right. Like our lips were two pieces of a puzzle and they fit together perfectly. No matter how cheesy it sounded, it was true. We pulled apart and for awhile we just stared into each other's eyes like they were the most fascinating things in the world.

"Feel anything that time?" Matt asked with a grin.

"I don't know, I think we should kiss again" I said.

Weird how it was meant to be a joke but Matt took me seriously I guess 'cause I felt his lips against mine once more but they were less gentle this time. More hungry then before. It's not like I minded. After all, I do love him. I decided I would appease his hunger. My tongue glided along his bottom lip. Asking politely for entrance. Matt obliged, he opened his mouth only a little ways but it was just enough room for me to slip my tongue in.

They battled it out for dominance, in the end I won. Funny how a mistake turned into a make out session. We stopped, out of breath and awe struck. Well, I might be the only one awe struck 'cuz Matt just stood there with a childish grin on his face.

"Gee Mel, all that practicing with your stuffed animals really paid off didn't it?" he asked

"Shut up! You swore you would never speak of that again!" I growled at him.

He started laughing and fell backwards onto my bed. It wasn't that funny, I'm sure Near does it all the time. His laughter started to die down and he wiped a tear from his eye. Matt smiled when he saw the intense glare I was giving him.

"So Mel, does this mean were boyfriend and girlfriend?" he asked before he burst out laughing again.

That bastard, how dare he make fun of my girlish stature! I swear to god sometimes I wanna hurt that boy. My face was turning 13 shades of red and not just because I was embarrassed.

"Feh, keep that up and it'll just be the girlfriend, the cops won't be able to find the boyfriend." I huffed, as I sat down at the desk, facing away from Matt. Wasn't joking either, I had a gun, one that Rogger hadn't confiscated from me yet. "Besides, I don't play the female part, I prefer top."

Matt sighed. "Mel, we both know top isn't your place in this relationship."

I glanced back at him, my eyes dared him to say another word. "Well, maybe we should have a contest." I said.

"Winner is the dominate one?"

"Yep."

"What is it going to be?"

"A game of my choosing." Matt smiled most likely thinking how stupid I was for choosing that. Though it wasn't as stupid as it sounds. I know, I know. He is king of all video games and no one can defeat him, but there was hope with one. It was a trivia game, Matt may be the all time champ when it comes to video games but in smarts he was one step behind me.

"Ok, so whoever wins the game is the contest winner right? What game were you thinking Mel?"

"Buzz!" Matt's smile fell a bit then he picked it right back up. That made me nervous but I knew I was going to win still.

"Ok, go put it in then."

***************

"Fuck…" I held the controller, staring dumbfounded at the screen. No way.

"So it remains: Matt- Male. Mello- Female!" Matt exclaimed with a huge grin plastered to his glowing face.

"How…?" I started but Matt already knew what I was going to ask.

"Mel, you may be smarter than me 99.9 percent of the time, but honestly, did you really think I would lose at any video game ever? "

"I don't believe this…" I mumbled.

"Well believe it, it's right here," He got up from his bed and pointed at his score, "Matt-345" then my score, "Mello-334."

"Screw this, I'm getting food." I purposely threw his controller onto the ground as hard as my non masculine arms would let me. Note: I am a very, VERY, sore loser. The thought of being on bottom when we grew up didn't help it much. Though, the chocolate lava cake they were serving in the cafeteria today might.

****************

Today they were serving hamburgers, man I detest the hamburgers here, they don't even taste like beef. Matt, apparently, had no problem with it though, maybe because the awful taste had drowned in all that ketchup and mustard he had slopped on it. He took another bite without bothering to clean his face up, it's like it didn't bother him at all. I know it would bother me, if there's anyone who cared more about their appearance then me, it would be a 16-year-old girl. "Jeez Matt, use a napkin much?" I said, handing him one of my napkins.

"The way I see it, Mel," he started after swallowing, ", is that I might as well not wipe anything off my face till I'm done eating 'cause then it'll just get all messy again."

Then he grinned at me and continued eating. Slowly I set the napkin back on my tray and picked up my fork. I was already done eating, I didn't get much considering I didn't favor the main course today, so I just stabbed the place on the tray where my lava cake used to be. My mind wandered back to a few minutes ago. The kissing scene played clearly in my mind and as it a slight blush grew on my cheeks. "Hey Mello, are you ok, do you have a fever?" Anna asked.

My mind snapped back to reality when I felt Matt's hand on my forehead. His hands were warm and it felt nice. "Nope, he's fine." I think I looked disappointed as his hand slid off my head and went back to stuffing the remains of the burger down his windpipe. The blush stayed on my face for a few minutes until Matt spoke up.

"Hey Mel, there was a problem on last night's homework I didn't quite understand. Would you mind helping me?" he asked with a cute, childish smile that I could just never say no to.

"Fine, show me the problem." I said with a sigh as Matt hastily took out his notebook, opened it to the page his homework was on, and pointed at the problem.

"I got every single one but this one." He looked kinda pissed, he usually understood every question and wrote the answer down like that, give or take a couple of errors in said answers.

"Don't worry," I assured him as I took out a pencil, ", I had some trouble with this one too, ok, first, all you have to do is-"

"Hey Mello, Matt, Anna." A voice said from behind me. I sighed angrily, knowing exactly who the slime ball was standing behind me. It was none other than the infamous Near. Mr. Straight A's. Mr. Perfect. Mr. I'm so much cooler than you so back off or I'll bite you. Everyone in school looked up to Near, he was kind of like the new god in this school. I say new because, remember, once L resided here. Though everyone else seemed to respect him ever so much I just couldn't stand the sight of him. The way he mocked me with a sly smile every time we were handed back homework or a test, almost knowing I did worse than him. Normally I did too, sure we tied once in awhile but that was an uncommon phenomenon. The worst part was, I think Matt, now officially my Matt, respected Near.

Now I know having respect for a person and liking a person are two different things but still, Matt having any good thoughts about Near AT ALL just didn't sit right with me. I seriously loathed Near that much.

"You still working on your homework Mello?" Near asked, glancing over at the paper with a bored look on his face, the same face he had on every day except when he was rubbing his 100% in my face.

"What if I am?" I challenged.

"Let me see that." He said. Before Matt or I were able to protest he snatched the paper right off the table and started looking at it, "Did you really not get this problem? It was so easy a dead squirrel could do it. Mello, what happened, you used to be so smart. Ah, these questions are wrong too."

Bastard. I knew he saw Matts name on the paper but yet he was still directing the insults at me. Not that I wanted him to insult Matt. Also, he wasn't just insulting me, he was insulting both of us, Matt and I. Knowing that just pissed me off even more. I wanted to stab him multiple times. Wanna know the worst part? For the first time ever I had no kick ass comeback to shove in his face, my brain was in a dead lock. Could I just punch him? Did that count as a comeback? Lord knows how long I've wanted to hurt him in some way, didn't matter how, mentally or physically, I just wanted it to happen but as long as we're in Wammy's House I could not do so much as even poke Near.

"What, you're not going to shoot your big mouth off at me. Good, I'm tired of listening to babbling idiots today anyway." Near said with one of his mocking smiles.

I gripped onto my chair. Hard. Trying to control my range. Slowly I started to get up from my chair, fists clenched, ready to knock his brains out of his oversized head but someone pushed me back down. Matt. Opening my mouth, I was going to say something but then Matt stood up and looked at Near with a death glare.

"Listen, just because you're a super smart whiz kid who thinks he knows everything, that gives you no right whatsoever to just come over here out of the blue and start insulting Mello for no apparent reason. So why don't you be a good little Near and scram before someone decides to rearrange that pretty little face of yours, hm?" He said venomously. Ok, now I take back what I said before about Matt respecting Near.

"That isn't scary," Near said, twirling a piece of his snow white hair with his index finger, ", before you stand up for your bitch maybe you should figure out some better threats, ones that are actually scary."

Matt just snapped. Before he, I, or anyone in the cafeteria knew it his fist had connected with Nears pale face. Near fell to the ground with a thud and suddenly everyone who wasn't already looking our way was.

Heh, yeah, you may have noticed my lack of poem and let me just say the reason for that is I have absolutely no idea whatsoever as to what the next chapter will be called or will be about but I'm working on it. ^^'

Anyway, I am SO sorry for my lack of updating for a very, very long time. With school and everything I don't really have a lot of time anymore so my updates will be less frequent then when I had just started this fic. Though I won't take a year to update or anything this time. So please look forward to the next chapter. :D
