A.N: aaaah! I procrastinated through this…

Three Days Before Mello's 13th
"Mello, Near, please come with me to my office," Roger called from the doorway. He looked solemn and… just like my principal did… I don't like where this is going. Once inside his office, he told it to us quiet bluntly. And I couldn't help myself. I found myself screaming. And all it took was one little comment from Near. Just one. I was ashamed of myself. I tried to compose myself again. But however Roger thought we could work together was of no idea to me. Ridiculous.
I left the room and proceeded to mine. I was getting out of this place. I was going to find Kira myself.
...
"Mello?" Matt walked in the room. "Mello, why are you packing?" I was going to tell it to him straight. Don't let your emotions get a better hold of you Mello.
"I'm leaving, Matt," I stated bluntly. There's a lot of bluntness going on today…
"What? Why?"
"Because Matt. L is dead and I refuse to work with Near."
"Fine. But I'm coming with you." I looked up from my duffel bag and glared at him. Please Matt. Please don't make this harder…
"No. You're not coming." He glared back at me.
"Yes I am. And you can't stop me from not coming."
"Yes I can, Matt." I pulled out a gun and pointed it at him. "Just back off Matt. And you're not coming." I was so close to breaking down and giving in to that look he was giving me. But I had to keep it together. For Matt. For his sake. He gave me one final look of shock and sadness, it nearly broke me.
"Fine," he said. Then he turned around and walked out the room.
I'm so sorry, Matt. I'm so sorry.
…
Little did I know that I'd be repeating these word over and over again.
