Third chapter, today. I'm rushing it. Enjoy. And thanks for the views s, everyone. :3

O.o

Mason

Mari, went to his apartment. As he had given her the keys to it.

She figured out his combination, and opened the safe. In his bedroom, were it was. And she noted the manilla folder. And took it out slowly.

As she opened it. She noticed the notebook and took it out.

She didn't yell, but she felt shock running through her veins.

Similar to being shocked with a electricity.

She panted, all her memories returned.

As she did so, a white folded paper, popped off.

"Huh?"

Opened it up.

"Dear Mari,

I write to you, in regards that you would some day.

Find this.

I hope, you can give in, that way.

We can create a World, together.

Fulfill our lives together.

If you do this, I promise.

To love you. Forever and Ever."

She hugged it.

"He loves me. I've always known..."

"Long time, no see!"

She jumped up, from the floor.

"Ryuk!"

Hugging him, as he disappeared.

She was taken a back.

"Sorry, it's just that you grew up into a pretty girl. And... I'm a guy. And I get a little shy..."

Hyuk.

She flipped around, twirling. And handed him a apple.

He gasped.

" Apples!"

She was cheery.

"I think, you know what I want?"

As he kept eating.

He swallowed quickly.

"Huh?!" In mere confusion.

"Ryuk, I want to Eye Deal."

"Nah, huh. No deal."

"Come on, Ryuk. I'm doing this for Alex."

"If he wants them, he should cut his lifespan. Besides, I wouldn't mind taking half away."

"Ryuk, please."

"But you already cut it half."

"I don't care. I don't care about anything else. Other than Alex."

He sighed.

"You already know what that means, don't you?"

She shrugged nervously.

"Alright, then."

He touched her eyes.

She opened them, and it glowed crimson.

"I'm back."

(Crap, Light is going to kill me for sure... Wait shinigami can't kill other shinigami. Hyuk... But he'll be pissed, for sure.)

Ryuk was not happy.

She put on her coat.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to see Alex."

As she ran out.

"This girl... Again. Stupid shenanigans..."

Mari walked in, and saw Alex on the chair.

"Alex~"

Near stood up.

"What are you doing here?!"

"Well, your Guard let me in. Maybe you should fire, him for being incompetent."

She smirked.

And Alex just sat there.

"Ale~"

While she touches his hand, with a tiny piece of hidden paper.

He folded his hands, together. As Near glared at both, as he slowly sat.

He felt a strange sense, as both glared at him. Alex turned, closed his eyes, while smiling.

(I won.)

Mari, glared at Near.

Then looked over to ex. Near, was peering at her, by the side.

"Well, gotta go. Don't want to cause problems."

She left, happily.

(Something is wrong, here.)

Mari went to her current home. And began to write down Near's real first name.

Ryuk was in disbelief.

"You're actually going to do it?"

Mari went on memory recurrent of Near.

"I... I can't."

She stopped, mid way. As Ryuk looked at her.

"It is, too soon."

Ryuk handed her the Eraser. And she erased it.

"Also, it would be stupid."

"Huh?" Ryuk looked in confusion.

She was doing a equation.

"Near only has,... Two years to live."

"How did you figure it out? Even I didn't know how. I scared the shit out of all the people I've come by." Hyuk.

"Look, this number here is his lifespan. You round it all up, and you get human years. And Two years, tops... Well, actually a year, eleven months and three weeks, with four days."

"Whoa! Amazing!"

"So, it wouldn't be fair. I would rather let him live his time."

"That's keen of you, I guess."

Alex took Mari that afternoon to a date, at Starbucks.

Yeah Romantic,... Very Romantic, I know.

"Mari, well... Seeing that you and I are already engaged. I decided we live together to test the waters."

She got teary.

"Move in with me."

She was over joyed.

"Yes."

Some people turned to look. Annoyed.

"Sorry, everyone."

Hyuk.

"It's just that I'm so happy. First you ask me to become your wife. Now this... This is the best day, of my life!"

Alex was annoyed.

"Yeah, totally."

"So, he heh... That makes me your only one... No more, side bitches, for you."

He was flipping through many texts.

"Yeah, the only one for me."

He deleted several of those contacts.

She sighed out of relief.

Hyuk.

Several evenings later.

"So, how did you two met?"

Alex was trying to come up with something quick. As he looked at the ceiling.

"Well, we were..."

"Mari, I'll tell them."

"Sure my love."

"Well, pops. I was doing my work and huh... I spotted her. Believe it or not, she was a Kira Suspect. But turned out she was innocent. And the only thing stolen, was my heart."

His Father sat there, a serious.

"That's adorable."

"It really isn't."

"Oh, stop Harold. Don't need to be such a party pooper."

Mari held to Alex.

"Well, as long as you're happy... When's the Wedding?"

With his arms still folded.

"We still haven't chosen a date, yet. But I'll let you know. Front row seats for you pops."

"Yay." his mom cheered.

"Okay let's... " As his father stood up.

A knock was heard.

"Oh, it must be Mason."

"Great. I assumed, he wasn't going to come. Since, he's busy all the time."

Alex frowned. He felt, his evening ruined.

"Mason, sweetie."

They hugged. As Harold, stood next to her.

"Son."

Mason walked in, after that. And Harold walked to patio. Since Dinner was not quite done.

And Candace went to sit with them.

Mason had his arms folded.

(Oh, don't act like you don't remember me at all.)

Mari glared at him, shyly. She had forgotten about him. And wasn't expecting these two to be brothers.

"Mason, I see. That you're still a douchbag. Despite the change of look."

"I was Moody, and it was a Dark Past. You moron. Leave it alone."

"I still hate you. Business... Business? You're weak, bro."

"Alex, shut it."

"Okay, you two are brothers. Stop it."

"Sorry, Mah. But this fool. Should've stayed with his gay lover, instead."

"I'm not gay!"

"Sure you're not. That explains why, you have no girlfriend."

"Alex, stop."

"Not having a girlfriend, doesn't make me gay."

"Sure, dick rider."

"Mason... Alex... Stop."

Mari was just observing this.

"Says the Pimp Daddy 101. Go fuck yourself, Alex. You disgusting slut!"

"Mason!"

He sat. Massaging his temple. "I'm sorry, Mah."

Alex laughed.

"im going out with Dad. He asked me, yesterday for beers, so be back mah."

Kissed Mari, and went outside.

"Come, here. Sweetie. I'll show you, Alex's favorite dish. And tell you the recipe."

She got up, cheerfully. And followed.

(I'm not gay. It's that you stole my bitch... And I will get my revenge. By stealing her back. I'm a Man. I will get what I want. I'll get my way, with you.)

He walked in after them. As doing so, Candace had to use the bathroom.

" I'll be right back."

"Okay."

As she took the wooden spoon, and stirred.

Homemade pasta sauce.

"Mmm." She tasted it, off her finger.

"Don't act like you don't remember me."

She turned to face him.

"But I really don't."

"You know, damn well who I am. Liar."

"Whatever. I love your brother."

"He doesn't love you."

"Why, because you said so?"

"He's going to hate that you helped out mom."

"No, he'll love it more."

She wore decent clothes, to impress his parents. And it was still a turn on to both Mason and Alex.

"No, he won't. He doesn't know what love is."

"And you do?"

He grabs her wrists. And pins her on the long cabinets.

"Mason?"

"Shut up."

Kissing her, by force.

"Mason?!"

He carried her, after covering her mouth with a his tie.

Took her to his old bedroom. Where he tied her hands up.

Her eyes were wide. "I want you. But you never gave in."

(Oh, no. He's going to rape me.)

She began to cry.

After a few minutes of fucking her. He realized how stupid it was. Pulling out, he removed the tie.

"You asshole!" She spat on him.

He wiped it off.

"I am sorry."

"Bastard... I hope, I don't get pregnant by this."

He released her. And she cleaned up.

He went down stairs. And they all came around. Dinner was served. And these two didn't stare at each other. Let alone say words.

Mari was scared, and even tugged her arm, holding Alex tight.

" Hey, you two love birds. This is the kitchen."

Candace laughed.

"Oh Harold. Most couples already do it, before Marriage anyhow. Remember us?"

"Stop..."

"Your Father's face... Harold. It was hilarious."

He blushed.

"Candace, stop it. I say."

As he grunted.

She just kept laughing.

Alex was annoyed, by her clinginess. More than what was said.

He sighed.

"Okay, we should go. Now."

After Dinner was finished. And hugs and kisses were given. Mason left home, earlier.

"Tell me, what's wrong?"

"Huh?"

Ryuk had no idea, himself.

After all, Alex was the main owner of the notebook.

"Nothing is wrong."

He looked at her is disbelief. But stopped asking. He didn't even care much.

She was a nuisance to him anyway.

Mason got home, his roommate wasn't there tonight.

He went to parties often.

And that gave Mason time to get drunk off of his alcohol, in the mini fridge.

He noticed, the gun that belonged to his partner. As defense purposes.

But he was guilty. And it wouldn't let him sleep. Even in his drunken state. He was losing his sanity.

He pulled the trigger.

Near thought it was Kira.

Instead.
