These halls we walk
Chapter 10
I looked with a daze at the sun rising along the skyline as I sat in the apartment of and Matt and Mello. They had welcomed me into their home, and I took the offer at sight being.
I stirred my coffee with my index finger and thumb, gripping the base of the cold metal spoon.
"I have to tell you the real reason I'm here, Mello…" I sighed, shifting my eyesight over to the blonde who was gnawing on the edge of a chocolate bar.
His sight set on mine and our eyes locked, he looked at me waiting for an answer.
"I'm here to find beyond." My smooth British accent escaped my candy flavored pale pink lips like a shallow depressing song.
Mello's sparkling blue eyes widened slowly, his wrist moving downward and the chocolate bar moving away from his face, his tender lips parted just barley.
"Are…Are you serious?" The boy questioned, leaning forward quickly, seeming slightly angry.
"I knew it!" we heard Matt call from the other room. I chuckled slightly at his eavesdropping.
"Its true…When we were teenagers, Beyond told me he loved me, but then out of the blue, he left without saying goodbye. The last thing I heard from him is that he wanted to come here, To Los Angeles." I spoke slowly, staring at my own pale-faced reflection in my coffee cup, eagerly waiting for a slap or a scream from Mello for even being with this "Cold-blooded psychopathic killer" as Matt would say.
Mello stood up and I shut my eyes, waiting for him to strike me with the back of the hand for being so stupid. I let go of the spoon and put my hands down on the table, my small hands fisted slightly. I kept my eyes closed as I felt his strong hands grip my timid shoulders and pull me upward out of my chair. I stood there, my head tilted downward, but to my surprise, he wrapped his strong, Russian arms around my small body.
I opened my eyes wide as he kept holding me. My chin resting on his shoulder, I looked over and saw matt, cigarette in mouth, smirking dumbly and crossing his arms as he leaned on his right hip.
"Why?" I mouthed at him, trying not to ruin the moment with Mello.
Matt shrugged lazily, his hands now in his pockets.
Mello took a step back, Matt a step forward.
"We'll help you find him." They both spoke simultaneously.
My eyes widened and a large smile grew upon my face. I giggled sweetly looking at them. I then ran forward and jumped on both of them, causing both of them to fall backwards. "Thank you…"
