It makes life fun.

**XvX**

Boring days past the boys by. Their distaste for the hidden detective living under the same roof as them decreased. L spent more time with them, wether it was eating chocolate, solving puzzles, or hacking computer systems. He was there, and was learning how to understand children more. Failure was the outcome but L was getting better, after all, Nate, Miheal, and Mail liked him.

The boys enjoyed watching the detective make a fool out of himself. It let them understand that they were not meant to be perfect (or imperfect as L was) and all they had to do was try their hardest. Their grades rose as A and B's dropped. Everyone was worried for the teens when they stopped walking together to class and altogether just stopped going to classes.

Nate, Miheal, and Mail were on their way outside to their tree. They were going to sit, talk, and indulge themselves in their so desired addictions. Nate stopped in the middle of the hall.

"What's up, Nate?" Mail asked.

"I left my puzzle in my room. I'll catch up to you both later." Nate explained. Miheal crossed his arms in annoyance.

"You better hurry up. I won't wait around all day." He stated and then continued on his walk. Mail just smiled at Nate and then followed after Miheal. Nate turned around and started walking through the hall. He couldn't help but think.

He had two best friends. He was in a good home. He was working for good. He had someone nice and unexplainably weird to look up to. He was... overwhelmed. Things were much too perfect for him for he never had an even remotely happy time back home.

He couldn't help but smile.

Then he turned a corner and the smile faded away. Nate didn't understand what it was in stomach, tightening it to such a degree that he had to hold it with one hand. Suddenly everything was different, but it all looked the same. As he took more steps his stomach got worse and worse, his forehead started to sweat. He wanted to puke.

The bells of Wammy's sounded out and through the halls. They sounded much louder than he ever heard them before, as if the waves of sound were hitting against his skull.

He heard a scream.

A scream?

That's when two doors down, the door was shot open, nearly falling off it's hinges. Nate jumped up in shock as B ran out the door, screaming.

"Help her! Help her! Somebody stop her! Where's L?! L?!" B yelled as he ran down the opposite hall of Nate, not even noticing the scared albino who just couldn't comprehend the frantic teen. Nate wanted to know what was happening, and he knew the only way to do that was to investigate.

"B-Beyond..! P-Please... Don't..." A weak voice cried out. Nate stepped closer and closer to the door, trying to peek inside but much too scared to. A groan of pain was heard and a bloody hand came out of the door and lay weakly on the ground.

Before he knew it, Nate was running to the door. He was worried and his fear would just have to be put aside until he could help the poor soul inside the room. He made it to the door and froze at the sight.

Laying on the floor was A. Knife in her stomach, pool of blood surrounding her body, eyes so dull. Nate gasped and fell to the floor.

He's never seen anyone in pain, he's never seen anyone hurt, and he most certainly has never seen anyone die. What was happening? Why was he shaking? Why couldn't he move? Why couldn't he help her?!

"B..." The body cried, taking the knife out. It didn't notice Nate, it was far out of the same world. "I want to go. Let me go."

With those last words the body slit it's own neck in front of the albino, blood spewing over the shaking child. He let out a cry and crawled away backwards as the body fell limply to the floor. Nate made it to the opposite side of the hall, shaking even more pronounced, and started to cry. He held his legs close to his chest and buried the white locks in his pajamas, sobbing in the hallway while covered in crimson red.

"Hurry, L!" B's voice called from just down the next hall. Finally the copy and it's original reached the albino and stopped. "A? Allison?! No!"

Beyond jumped to the dead body, tears streaming from his red eyes, blood covering him from head to toe. L starred at Beyond for a moment and then noticed Nate, curled up in his ball. The detective bent down to the albino and hugged him the best he knew how. Nate leaned into the gesture, it was comforting and safer feeling.

He just saw death, and it was scary.

"Y-you!" Beyond cried, getting up and looking at L. "Your the one who did this! If you didn't just shut up! We- She- I!" The younger copy shook his head to try and focus and force away the tears. "It's all your fault!"

And then B ran, and he never came back. L and Nate stayed there in silence and in shock before L said anything.

"Let's get you cleaned up, Nate." L offered and Nate shook his head.

"It's Near."

**XvX**

Matt's cold was very minor, perhaps it was because he never had a cold before. Whatever the reason was he was up, out of bed, and handed in his report only two days later.

"I am so amazing." Sun sighed at her achievement. Matt rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, your a miracle worker, now get out." Matt ordered, sarcasm showing his annoyance. Mello and Near sat on the couch.

"You don't love me anymore, fine. I see how that is. Bye boys, see you all in class tomorrow!" Sun sang as she skipped out of their room. Matt sighed in relief and closed his eyes behind his goggled.

"Hey, Matt. We wanna talk to you." Mello stated in the voice that meant he would allow no shit to pass. Matt looked up, curiously at the two that seemed to have not killed each other, and then walked to them.

"Yes?" Matt asked, still curious. Near curled his hair.

"You remember what happened between the three of us two days ago?" Near asked and Matt raised an eyebrow.

"Yes. You both kissed me." Matt stated.

"Well, we resolved this problem." Mello smirked, scaring the redhead.

"How?" Matt asked, being very patient with the two.

"Mello and I shall be dating." Near stated, also grinning just a bit now. Matt's jaw dropped. The two boys that kissed him while he was sick, for no reason at all, were going to date each other? Not to mention they were enemies not even a week ago.

Near's twirling stopped and Mello's eyes squinted just a bit. Matt caught these gestures and smiled.

"Don't ever shock me like that again. You dirty little liars." Matt smiled as he saw the two slightly twitch.

"What?" Near asked innocently.

"Liars. Your not dating." Matt stated. Mello quickly rose to his feet.

"How'd you know we were lying?" Mello asked, making Matt smile more.

"Sixth sense?" Matt guessed, way beyond amused now. "I know you like each other, but your not dating. Why would you lie?"

Then there was a silence in which Mello and Near shared glances before smiling yet again.

"We were hoping you'd get jealous. It was a funny thought for us to think about." Mello stated, nonchalantly, hoping Matt would catch what he was secretly saying.

"So while I was sick you both were spending your time thinking of weird things to say to make me jealous? Thanks." Matt stated sarcastically. Mello frowned when Matt didn't understand Mello's reasons for his specific wording.

"Wait..." Matt looked at Mello and then to Near. "Jealous?"

"You finally got it?" Near asked. Mello sighed.

"Well, excuse me for not being so great with understanding my two best friends who use to think sharing the same soda was disgusting!" Matt yelled and Mello laughed, putting a hand on Matt's shoulder.

"The thing is, Matt. You made us wait for this for two extra days. So don't waist our time anymore and lets just get to making a... 'reunion'." Mello ordered, pushing Matt on the couch next to Near who climbed onto Matt's lap. Mello sat down next to them and watched as Matt and Near shared a kiss of battling tongs. The blond chuckled as he took off Matt's goggles.

"Hmmm... Maybe watching is just as good as taking course." Mello stated. Near rolled his eyes at Mello but soon made a small squeak when Matt moved so Near was laying down and he was on top of the albino. "That doesn't mean I want to be left out though!"

"Join in when you see fit." Matt said as he started unbuttoning Near's shirt. Mello got up onto his knees and leaned over Matt so he could suck on the redhead's neck. Nibbling earning a few moans.

"Your right, watching is good." Near smiled at Matt's blush. Mello released Matt's neck so that Matt could work on Near's chest, licking, sucking, and nibbling at the nipple. Near twitched a bit and let out a groan.

"It does have emotions!" Mello yelled in a mock as he pulled down Matt's pants, earning an eep in response. Mello just chuckled.

"I think Mello's having all the fun." Near stated.

"Wish to help me change that?" Matt asked. Mello didn't have time to react before he was pushed onto his back, vest, shirt, and pants pulled off. Near sitting on his stomach and Matt in between his legs.

"Oh, Mello's hard." Matt smiled as he saw the tent in the blond's boxers. Mello blushed.

"Like your not enjoying this as much as I am?" Mello asked and Near grinned.

"Of course we are. Now shut up." Near ordered, permenantly silencing Mello with a kiss. Toungs fought with each other until Mello gasped and his head was brought back, panting and trying to find air.

"M-Matt..." Mello managed, and Near turned to see Mello's member wrapped inside of Matt's mouth. Near smiled.

"That's an interesting position." Near stated and then went to work at Mello's chest. Matt sucked on the tip, slid his toung up and down the shaft and lightly let his teeth brush against the member. Mello's moans got louder, breathing faster, and he was sweating.

Finally Mello came, and without any warning to Matt, it filled the redhead's mouth. Matt simply swallowed what he had as Mello tried to catch his breath. Near smiled and kissed Matt quickly.

"Fuck." Mello finally said. Matt laughed. Near was then pushed onto Matt who was on his back with Mello on top of them, pulling and tugging at the pajama pants. The pants came off and Near blushed when the boxers soon followed.

"Aw, Near's shy." Matt chuckled into Near's neck, causing the white haired boy to shiver and smile.

"I don't let just anyone touch me, you know." Near stated as Mello opened his legs and moved his head lower.

"We're not just anyone." Mello stated, and then closed his mouth on Near. The albino shifted and twitched at the sensation running his body wild. He never felt anything like this, and he was glad that it was Matt and Mello who were causing it. His member got harder as Mello moved and licked, and as Matt sucked at the pale neck.

Near realized that Mello was very good at this. Maybe he picked up some tips from when Matt went before. As he thought this, his legs buckled, and he knew he couldn't hold on any longer, and he came into Mello's mouth. Mello swallowed and licked his lips of the taste as Near caught his breath.

"Now, you understand, don't you?" Mello asked, and Near nodded, turning over to face Matt.

"Your turn." Near whispered, making Matt blush as his shirt and boxers were forced off. Mello got on the floor next to him and bit into Matt's collarbone, softly. There were already enough scars there, Matt didn't need anymore.

Near really didn't know what to do, this situation was not his strong area. So he decided to copy Mello and hope that he did good. Matt was hard when Near first licked completely up and down the member, getting many moans and groans. He finally put as much of Matt as he could inside his mouth and sucked and licked as well as he could. Matt's breathing hitched, blush permanently on his face, until he released himself in Near, who also swallowed the glorious taste.

After that they let everything go. They were no longer Near, Mello, and Matt. They were Nate, Miheal, and Mail.

And they were happy.

XvX

Mello woke up first. Only remembering pounding. Lots and lots of pounding. He hoped Matt and Near's butts didn't hurt. They were still asleep and he enjoyed watching them for a bit but he knew he had to get changed. So, he took a quick shower to clean himself off and got dressed.

Chocolate would make the moment perfect so he went to find some when there was a knock at the door. He ventured to it, chocolate in hand, and opened the door to see Roger.

"What's wrong? I swear I didn't do anything." Mello stated, leaning on the doorway. He took a bite of the chocolate. Roger's eyes fell to the floor in a worrying manner.

"L... is dead." And the chocolate fell to the floor.
