Mello and Gevanni look at the three as they emerge out of the darkness.
Nate's bangs are casting shadows over his eyes and A along with BB look ready to kill.
"Come on I had to pretend to be on their side still. It'll be good is one of us is among them so we can spy on the inside right?" Mello tries to get out of this.
Gevanni gives an acted glare to Mello. "How dare you betray us Mello!" He snaps. "We trusted you and you turned your back on us."
Suddenly Gevanni's upper arm is slashed making him clench his teeth in pain.
Nate growls. "Shut up."
L's P.O.V.
Me and Light are sitting on a nice spot on the grass with me leaning against him and his arm around my waist.
I trust my gut and my gut tells me not only do I love him but I can trust him. I close my eyes and enjoy his warmth, it's really nice and I feel happy here.
Light kisses the top of my head. "I love you." He whispers.
"Love you too." I reply and open my eyes half way tilting my head a little back to connect our lips for a quick second.
He kisses me a little harder but lovingly.
I kiss back and we both close our eyes enjoying each other even after the kiss is broken.
Some people say love is like a poison or a drug. It can enter you and it can make you sick wanting more…. Addicted even.
Maybe that really is true.
To be loved like this and to love back is so nice.
This day off is great and I thought I was going to worry about work or something or take this time to look for the killers. But it turned out different but amazing.
No one's P.O.V.
"Nate believe me. Please I love you." Mello tries again in a sweet voice.
Nate turns to him letting his eyes come out of the shadows with anger, betrayal and hurt gleaming in them. "Drop the act." He snarls. "We know the truth."
"To think you even killed to keep up this act." Beyond says throwing his knife in the air and catching it by the handle only to repeat for a few more times.
Gevanni looks to Mello raising an eyebrow. "You killed?"
Mello can no longer look to Gevanni or to anyone in the room going silent. 'I have failed L.' He thinks to himself.
Gevanni sighs shaking his head. "Oh Mello."
Nate steps right in front of Mello blocking Gevanni's view of the blonde boy. Nate brings the blade of the knife to Mello's cheek not making a wound yet. "You know…" He begins.
Mello slowly looks to Nate though he feels ashamed about killing and disappointing L he finds he feels like his worries suddenly wash away when looking at Nate with him so close. His eyes look into Nate's with honest love.
"You had me going…" Nate speaks softly in almost a whispering tone. "I thought I could trust you and love you but…." He brings the knife along Mello's cheek making a soft cut that only bleeds enough to leave some blood lines one Mello's cheek. He lowers the knife to Mello's shoulder and rests the blade on his shoulder.
"It wasn't an act." Mello states calmly. "I still love you and whatever punishment you give me for the fact that I was on the good guys side trying to gain your trust to turn you to the good side but my feelings are not an act. This is the truth. I ended up falling for you though I knew I shouldn't I did and that's a fact."
Nate stares into Mello's eyes for a few moments then he slashes Mello's upper arm by his shoulder making Mello clench his teeth in pain. "How can I trust you that what you say isn't an act? How can I trust what you say?" He slashes Mello's thigh then Mello's other arm but this time closer to the wrist. "Huh? Tell me? How and why I should and can trust what you say." He demands putting the knife's tip against Mellos chest not getting a drop of blood from Mello's chest yet.
"Because I will prove it to you and I even admitted to my lies." Mello explains through slightly clenched teeth. "I can prove it. I will."
Nate grips the knife tighter. "How can you prove it!?" He growls and slashes Mellos other thigh knowing that if he attacks the torso then Mello will possibly die which is not what he wants right now.
Torture and letting Mello have a piece of his mind is soo much better.
"Give me a second chance." Mello tells him still watching Nate's eyes.
BB and A begin whispering behind Nate and BB's body is itching to attack Gevanni but he waits.
"A second chance would be the only other chance you'll get if I decide to give you another chance." Nate explains. "But I'm not convinced to do so." He tilts his head slightly and slightly glares at Mello. "Not convinced at all. Cause if we asked you to hurt Gevanni the you would say no, I can see it in your eyes. You've already tried with the earlier words. Do you have any more tricks up your sleeve before I decided to kill you painfully and slow?" He asks in a dark tone. He leans in close to Mello's face. "Hm? Do you?"
Mello blinks but his expression doesn't change. "One." He says softly. "Off the top of my head."
"Oh really?" Nate purrs in a dark way. He puts the knife on Mellos collar bone making sure to move the top of Mello's shirt down enough to have the knifes blade on his skin. He slowly drags the blade across Mellos collar bone like how he did with Mello's cheek.
Mello nods. "I do and I'm certain I'll be able to convince you of my feelings this way." He leans his head a little closer to Nate's. "One easy way to convey my feelings to you." He says just a touch softer than normal talking tone.
Nate watches Mello's eyes not pulling away but body tense ready to jump away if needed or wanted. He stops all movements with the knife as he stares into Mellos eyes, at least for a few seconds then he moves it over to get ready to slash at Mellos arm again.
Mello leans in closing the distance and kisses Nate's lip.
