"This day does not belong to one man, but to all. Let us together rebuild this world that we may share in the days of peace," Matt whispered along, in sync to the newly crowned King of Gondor and Arnor. He mumbled along in Elvish as Aragorn descended the stone steps and stopped in front of Legolas. The redhead could barely contain himself when the white-clad Arwen appeared in the crowd.
Matt bit his lip, holding back tears of pure fanboy from rolling down his face. His hands propped up his head by the chin and his toes bounced up and down as he kicked the bed behind him, making sure not to hit his blonde roommate. It didn't work. His socked foot ricocheted off of the other kid's stomach.
Mello groaned tiredly, shoving the other's foot away. Matt, hearing his sleepy voice, craned his neck around. To his dismay, Mello was, as he fearfully expected, drifting off. Matt pushed himself up, exclaiming, "Hey, you can't fall asleep now!" Mello only groaned. Taking it as a lazy question, the redhead shook the bed beneath him. "Because!" He whipped an arm out toward the small TV on a chest of drawers between their beds. The King held the Elf princess in his arms and they shared a passionate kiss as he spun her around. "Look!" Matt pouted in the general direction of the television, "I would love to be—well, either of them…" He gave up on trying to get Mello's attention and sighed dreamily.
"Wait, what…?" Mello mumbled, his face scrunching together, though he kept his eyes closed.
"Uh…" Matt's eyes widened, realizing what he'd just said. "I said, I would love to be Aragorn right about then—Arwen's a fucking babe."
"Mmhmm," The blonde only moaned and rolled over onto his side. "I still don't see why you couldn't have watched this in your own bed," he murmured, trying to expend as little energy as possible. Three and a half hours of Lord of the Rings can really tire a person out, he observed in his mind.
The redhead only sighed. "You have a better view," He stated matter-of-factly, this time purposely nudging his roommate's elbow. The blonde's head bobbed as its support was bumped. "And anyway, there's plenty of room on here for the two of us."
"It's a fucking twin-sized bed, Matt."
"And?"
When Mello gave an exasperated scoff, the gamer pulled himself to his knees and crawled up the bed until he plopped down beside him. "It's fine. Now watch the rest of this; it wraps everything up!" He whacked Mello in the chest, hoping to get him up to watch the last ten minutes of the movie.
With a glare burning brighter than the Eye of Sauron, Mello punched him not-so-accidentally as he struggled to a sitting position. He eyed his shoulder, which was uncomfortably squished against Matt's beside him. "And you say this is big enough for the two of us."
"Shh!" Matt was as enthralled as could be as two Hobbits stood at the altar. He grinned like a schoolgirl, despite having watched the movie dozens of times before.
"Wait, who's that?" Mello questioned loudly, finally focusing back in to the end of the movie.
"That's Rosie—the girl Sam wanted to dance with at the beginning of the first movie? 'If I were to get married to someone, it would be her,'" He quoted, mocking Samwise Gamgee. "Come on, Mel!" Matt threw his hands up, slightly annoyed with Mello's inattentiveness to the most wonderful movie on the face of the earth, in his opinion. He sighed and shook his head. "Just watch."
Matt sat, riveted to the television screen for the remainder of the movie (read: about ten minutes). When the credits finally began to roll, he luckily managed to keep his tears of happiness from doing the same.
And then there was the sudden weight on his shoulder.
Matt glanced up, keeping as still as possible, and saw his roommate, arms crossed, passed out. His head had fallen to the side, knocking slightly with Matt's as it came to a rest on his shoulder. Wide-eyed, the redhead could only bite his lip and hold his breath. This was happening, right? Normally he would have been pissed at anyone who fell asleep during Lord of the Rings, but this was Mello. One did not simply turn down a rather sexy, sleepy blonde.
"Uh, Mel?" Matt whispered nervously.
There was no reply. Only the quiet rush of air from Mello's nose as he slept.
"Melloooo…?" His voice rose a bit, but not enough to wake up his roommate. He only kept on sleeping as peacefully as ever.
Shit. Matt quietly peeled himself from beneath the slumbering Mello, making sure not to move him too much, aside from adjusting the pillows so his head didn't flop over. Laying both hands over his shoulders to steady him, Matt stepped away nervously. Luckily, the blonde stayed upright.
Sighing softly, the redhead pulled back the blankets of his bed only a couple yards away. He looked back longingly at Mello, sleeping relatively peacefully in a slumped sitting position. At least he has pillows to prop him up, Matt thought with a shrug.
He looked at the cold, uninviting bed and paused. His eyes slid back to the nice and warm blonde-occupied bed behind him. His heart ached as he pouted to himself, bouncing his leg up and down like a small child as he tried to make a decision.
The next thing he knew, Matt was curled beside Mello on the small strip of bed the blonde had left. The geek beside him didn't care in the least. Matt snuggled up to Mello's arm, humming another low, "Mel?" There was no answer from the deep sleeper.
Glancing around the room to assure himself that the TV was off and everything was in order, Matt turned back to Mello and placed a tiny peck on his lips before tucking his head down, settling in to sleep.
Mello's lips twitched into a small smirk.
A/N: Wow, really late update today. Sorry guys, heh! ^_^" What with my mom's rather spontaneous organ removal and an essay I didn't want to write due, it took me a while. x3
In the end though, this makes me chuckle. :3 Can you tell someone just finished the Lord of the Rings trilogy? Bahaha, nooo, not me, silly. ;)
I'm sorry Legolas, where are they taking the Hobbits? Heh.
So I really hope you enjoyed, and thank you all for reading and reviewing! :D
