Chapter Six

Near gazed at the ring for a long while.

"Uh. . . Mello. . ."

"Nn?"

"How, when, where and why?"

Mello smiled sweetly. "Why is easy. I love you, Near, and I want to be with you for as long as I live." He brushed Near's cheek lightly.

Near closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead.

"I'm so tired. A lot has happened today.I can't tell if this is the worst day of my life or the best." He sighed.

"That's okay, love. Just go back to sleep." He kissed his forehead.

"What will you do?"

"Job hunt, I suppose. I don't want to leave you alone after what happened, but we need a source of income."

"I know. I'll be fine. I'll lock the door." Mello frowned at the thought.

"Still, I'll leave my gun here," He pulled his pistol out from under his pillow. "I got this in the mafia, before you ask."

"I kind of figured," He sighed and fell. Mello walked to the door. "Be careful, my love."

"Always. You too." Mello sighed, walked out of the door, and locking it.

Near tried his best to sleep.

. . .

Mello unlocked the door and slowly opened it, If Near was indeed sleeping, he definitely did not want to wake him.

"Near?" He whispered, just enough for Near to hear him if he was awake.

"I'm still here." He didn't move an inch. He was still staring up at the ceiling with that empty look in his eyes.

"Any luck today?"

Mello sighed and sat on the bed beside Near. "No, I tried three different places today. They don't want anyone under eighteen for liability issues."

Near sat up and wrapped his arms around Mello's neck from behind. "You're turning eighteen in three days, Mello. Don't tell me you forgot about your own birthday."

"Is it only in three days? Wow. I did forget. Well, then I can just go back then, and they should hire me. We can last that long on what we have."

Near nodded. "I went shopping for food yesterday. Chocolate is in the freezer. I know how much you love it cold." He kissed Mello's neck.

Mello hummed and leaned onto Near's touch. "You know me too well. Sometimes better then myself."

"It's called observation, Mello."

Mello chuckled and kissed Near tenderly, but shortly.

"Mm. At this time I would be preparing your 'Home Coming Gift'." Near teased.

"Should I leave and come back in?"

Near frowned. "I'm sorry. I'm still sore."

"It's fine, love. I understand."

"But it's not like I can't give you a fraction of it." Mello turned to face Near. "That would be nice."

Near pinned him onto the bed, kissing his sloppily, trailing light kisses downward, stopping at his shirt, removing it. He went lower, stopping right above his pants.

Mello looked down at Near, mentally urging him to keep going.

Near slowly started unlacing his pants. Teasing further.

"Dammit, Near. You're such a tease."

He smirked. "I want to enjoy this moment for as long as I can, Mello." Near finally removed Mello's pants, giving his member a teasing lick.

Mello's hips twitched, his eyes hooded with lust.

Near licked the length until Mello was fully erect, and finally took him in his mouth.

Mello's eyes rolled at the feeling, his hips bucked.

Near started bobbing and moving his tongue in erotic motions.

"Nnnn, haaah." He arched his back.

Near sucked harder, feeling pre-cum gather in his mouth and swallows Mello's erection, giving Mello the sensation of deep-throating him, making Mello moan loudly.

Near let go of Mello's erection and replaced his mouth with his hand, rubbing Mello's pride firmly. He leaned up and moaned Mello's name in his ear, along with sexual pants and moans he makes during intercourse. He ground his hips with Mello's.

Mello rolled his hips with Near's, moaning loudly.

Near caressed firmer, determined to get Mello to release.

Mello did, with a yell. He panted harshly afterwards.

Near smiled victoriously, and rolled onto the empty space next to Mello.

"Y'know. I love that smile you get every time. It's like you won the lottery or something."

"I like this better the the lottery." He cuddled closer to Mello, resting his head on his chest.

Mello wrapped his arms around him. "Yes, you're much better then the lottery as well."

Near looked at the ring and smiled. "I love you."

"I love you, too."

"Now, are you going to tell me when you got it?" Near smiled.

"Not long ago. I think. . . my first official day of the mafia. On my way home."

"What gave you the idea?"

"Someone else was bragging about proposing to his 'hot' girlfriend. I just figured it was a good idea to make you my partner."

"Mafia dogs propose?" Near raised an eyebrow. "He was the only one. His girlfriend was pretty hot. If you like big boobs and no brain types." Mello rolled his eyes.

"Ah, okay. I get it. You're just the opposite." Near laughed lightly.

Mello chuckled. "Yeah, I guess I am."

Near smiled and changed positions to be more comfortable.

Mello rolled over and wrapped his arm around Near, pulling him closer.

Near looked over his shoulder. "You're awfully handsy today."

"Is that a bad thing?" He buried his face into Near's back.

"Of course not," he smiled. "I love this."

"Just after this morning, it made me think of how precious you are to me."

Near blushed. "I feel the same way. It means we are truly in love. I love how you express that in every action."

"I try." He kissed Near's back.
