Hey everyone! First I would like to say: Happy Valentines Day! (Rhyme again..xD)
I'm sorry that I didn't upload in a while, but these school exams are such a drag. x.x
Thanks once again for my beautiful reviewers who are my inspiration and my will. =D Thanks to Newia, Lexcia, miriia and Insert-mello-related-name-here. BIG thanks to Newia who typed me a review with a length of the whole page. Thank you!
And I apologies for the crappy chapter without any romance, although it's Valentines Day. It's just not in the chapter people, but it'll happen! *Snicker*
On with the story!
Disclaimer: I do not own Death Note, but I own my OC's.
Chapter 12.
Mello's POV
"I know that you're furious but this is getting absurd." Matt said looking at me with his eyebrows raised.
"What?" I asked him, not in the mood for talk or arguing. And definitely not in the mood for advices.
"This is your fifth chocolate bar in 20 minutes!" He shouted at me, but I was too lazy to provide any kind of excuse. I was laying on my bunk bed, munching a chocolate bar. Man I was pissed! But sure enough, chocolate helped me.
"I know. Before I could eat 7 chocolate bars in 25 minutes." Man I'm getting lame.
Matt facepalmed himself and I raised my eyebrows again.
"That was only one time. When Near came and he beat you at every single exam. Yeah, that's when you ate 7 chocolate bars in 25 minutes. After that you almost barfed." Matt said in one breath, looking at me angrily.
"Calm down Mum! I'm old enough to decide what is good for me and what is bad." I took another piece of the chocolate bar as Matt stared at me, looking really pissed.
Oh, well.
"You are such a jerk Mello! You'll get fat and probably diabetes too!"
"I can't."
"You can't what?"
"I can't get fat. I always train and I'm in top shape."
"But you can get diabetes!"
"Yeah, whatever."
Matt stayed silent watching at me and my chocolate bar that was getting smaller and smaller. I finished my chocolate and I crumpled the wrapping paper in the small ball. I threw it at Matt's head, hitting perfectly.
"Bull's eye!" I yelled, starting to laugh.
Matt remained silent for a long time so I stopped my laugh and sat up. He was still standing there, watching me and I was sitting on my bed watching him back.
We glared at each other for 3 minutes and then my patience hit the limit.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I yelled.
"Nothing." Matt mumbled.
"Oh yeah right! Matt come on, I'm sorry that I hit you!"
"It's not that."
"Then what is it for crying out loud?"
"You like Jade, right?" My eyes widened and I almost gasped. He cut me off guard with this one.
"What? I do not like her!" I shouted, making him take a step back.
"Uhuh. That's why you went to search for her in the woods and that's why you're soo upset about her and her secrets."
"I went to search for her because she was my pair and I couldn't go to the finish line without her! You should know that! Plus, why would I be so upset about her and her secrets? Everyone has secrets so no point in digging them." I said, still watching Matt from my bed.
"And you were so worried about her, only because she's your pair? And you're upset about her secrets because she's hiding them from you and you want to know them."
What?
"I weren't worried about her! And I don't care about her secrets!"
"But you care about her, right?"
"I do not!" Matt shrugged and went to the doors.
"Whatever, if you do not wish to tell me then don't. I'll go on dinner now. You could use some real food too, you know?" And with that he left the room.
I was still sitting on my bed, completely stunned. What's with Matt suddenly? He accused me for liking her and he stated so many evidences. That was really weird.
Oh, come on Mello. It's not like you're worried about him finding out that you do like her, right?
Oh Man, I really can't rest for a bit! Here he goes again!
"I don't like her. Definitely and positively!"
Stubborn as ever.
I rolled my eyes, trying to ignore my stupid emotion. I jumped off my bed and continued to the doors. Matt was right in one thing; I really need some normal food. I could definitely live only on chocolate, but I think I would be so sick.
I shrugged again and opened the door stepping out of the room. I immediately bumped into someone who was running through the hallway. Because of my last bumping I remembered to stay on my feet as I reached for the hand of the other person to save him too.
My hand grabbed the persons hand and I pulled the person up, realizing that I saved Jade.
Jade?
I quickly dropped her hand as I watched her with my eyebrows raised.
What the hell is she doing?
"Uuh, I'm sorry. Thanks by the way." She muttered as she started to run to the stairs again, leaving me more confused than ever.
I'll never understand girls anyway.
I started to walk downstairs so I can find Matt and pretend like nothing happened. Or maybe I can pretend that I'm angry, so he won't continue to bug me about Jade and my emotions? Or I could threaten him?
That could work.
I turned to the canteen hall smirking like crazy, which resulted with weird glares from the other boys. I ignored them, controlling myself so I wouldn't punch them in their face. Huh, it's not easy to be an awesome strategist after all. Some people will never understand that.
I entered the canteen and walked to Matt who was sitting at our usual table. He was in deep thoughts and he was playing with food on the tray. Well this day is definitely the most horrible one. Not to mention one of the most confusing and retarded days.
I sat in front of him, placing my hand beneath my chin.
"So are you done with your little show? I don't like her and get over it. Leave her out of my life or I'll spread the word about you and Kim being together."
Wow, where did I get that from?
Matt dropped his spoon and it made clinging sound, hitting the tray. Matt looked down, silent.
Maybe I overdid the threat thing?
"Deal!" Matt said with a smile and I was relieved.
"I'm going to get my food now." I said and Matt nodded getting back to his own plate.
I stepped to the big line of the boys waiting for their food. I raised my head to the food part so I can see what am I going to eat. Well, this one surprised me.
We have a freaking chowder! Man, this is so lame!
When was the last time we ate pizza? I can't remember, because we didn't have any pizza in 5 years.
I was still pissed about the chowder thing that I didn't even realize that Bryan is standing in front of me. Oh God, he's such a pain in the ass! I waited a bit more when Bryan was suddenly first, me being second.
The cook lady looked at him and then she smiled, handing him the plate with sandwich on it.
"Here you go Bryan." She smiled.
"That's very kind of you. It's pretty bad that I can't eat chowder, due to my allergy on red pepper." Bryan said and the cook lady nodded. Then Bryan took off to his table and I just continued to stand there like an idiot.
The cook lady handed me my tray and I took it, walking over to Matt like I'm in some kind of a trance.
"What's with you?" Matt asked me, chewing a cookie.
"I think..I think I just heard Bryan saying his allergy."
"So?"
"Are you that stupid? I know his allergy! I can use that in my revenge plan. No, more like I'll definitely use it."
Matt stopped with his chewing as he looked at me, his eyes wide open.
"No shit? He said his allergy? So what is it?"
"It's red pepper." I smirked again as I started to eat.
Matt raised his eyebrows so his goggles were now messed up. I started to laugh, trying not to choke.
"Red pepper? I have never heard of an allergy like this."
I shrugged my shoulders, saying to him that I really don't care as long as it's real allergy. And for what I saw, it looks like it is.
"So how are you going to pull this off?"
"Probably going to put that in his room. Or maybe in his books."
"Why don't you put it in his next meal?"
"Maybe. But how am I going to pull that off?"
"How am I supposed to know? It's your revenge." Matt shrugged while I was eating my meal.
"So do you know what is Jade going to do?"
I almost choked when he mentioned Jade's name but I calmed myself down.
"Nope. But I'm sure that she doesn't have a plan." Matt nodded and I thought about it for a moment.
Maybe she does?
Jade's POV
"Oh my God!" I yelled as soon as I sat on the table next to Idri. I yelled so hard that she dropped the piece of the puzzle she was solving and Kim plugged her ears, making her fork drop on the floor.
"Whoops, sorry." I said as I picked Idri's puzzle piece from the floor.
"Why are you yelling so much? You know that I'm still shocked from the whole forest thingy. Plus my legs hurt like hell!"
Idri just rolled her eyes as she placed another puzzle piece.
"We had to run the last part so we can get away from the boys." I explained once again.
"Yeah! And that's why my legs hurt!" Kim yelled back at me, making the boys from the table next to us turn and stare.
"Go back to your miserable lives." I said as I started to eat.
"Why were you yelling anyway?" Idri asked, not moving her glare from the puzzle picture.
"Maybe she found some other way to torture me and my legs." Kim sighed annoyed.
"Nope. I found what am I going to do with the Bryan kid."
"Really?" Idri asked, looking interested.
Wow, Idri's interested? That's a first.
"So what are you going to do?" Kim asked impatiently.
I smirked, continuing to eat, which made Kim more annoyed.
"Soooo?" She asked me again.
I couldn't hold it any longer so I decided to tell them.
"He's allergic on red pepper. I heard that when I was standing behind Mello. Bryan was in front of him so I heard him very well. That's why he's eating different meal than us." I said, quite satisfied with myself and my good digging.
"Nasty. So how are you going to do the plan? What's your plan anyway?"
I smirked again, but Idri interrupted me.
"Does that mean that Mello heard too about the red pepper allergy? He was in front of you." Idri said and my mouth opened in shock.
Shit! I totally forgot that he was in front of me.
"Yeah. Now that I think about it, it's true. He was in front of you. And from what you told us, he wants to get revenge on him as well." Kim said while adjusting her goggles.
"Chances that he will use red pepper allergy as his revenge plan is..98%." Idri said.
"Thanks Brainiac. So I just have to make sure that I do the revenge plan before him. Right?"
Idri and Kim nodded in unison.
"And how are you going to put red pepper on him?" Kim asked.
"Or near him." Idri added.
"I...I have no idea." I said finishing my meal.
Kim rolled her eyes and Idri placed another puzzle piece, sighing.
"Oh, give me a break! I didn't have time to think about that."
"Maybe if you place it in his room?" Kim suggested.
"That could work, although I don't have a clue where his room is."
"Yeah that could be a problem." Kim said, scratching the back of her head.
"And if you put it in his next meal? If red pepper mixes with the meal, he won't notice it." Idri said.
"That is actually a good idea. But we have to think how are we going to place it on his food."
"We're going to make a scene." Kim said, excited.
"Aaand how?"
"Ok, ok. You're like walking through the canteen and then you see him, walking over to his table with his meal." Kim started.
"Then you 'accidentally' trip and you catch him by his shirt, stopping yourself from the fall." Idri proceeded with their genius plan.
"And when he's like: 'Are you Ok?', you place the red pepper in his meal."
"Without anyone noticing you, of course."
I started to clap.
"Bravo! You two should get an Oscar." I said sarcastically.
Kim sighed and Idri rolled her eyes, finishing her puzzle.
"I don't know how to do this, but I'll think of something. Oh and Kim? I have a special assignment for you."
"What?"
"You have to accompany Matt. That way I can be sure that he won't help Mello." Kim blushed as she started to protest.
"There's no way I'm going to do that!"
Idri smiled as she took her white plushie cat out of her pocket.
"Just lock him in his room." I said, wishing to end this.
"Oh, I can do that." Kim said, surprised by the simplicity.
"Fine then. I'll go study now. See 'ya later."
They both waved 'Bye' as I stormed out of the canteen.
One thing was bugging my mind and I couldn't take it anymore.
Am I going to lose to Mello?
So review please. You make my day better. =D
