Kya's POV

"I dare you…. to kiss Mello."

My heart stuttered in my chest. Did I hear him right? Kiss…Mello? I looked over at him speechless. Mello kept on a straight face, though his eyes darkened.

"I'll leave you two alone now." Matt said, walking out of the room. Why that sneaky bastard had this planned the whole time.

"Mello we don't have to. It's just a dare-" Mello flopped over to the couch, leaning against the side of it.

"You do all kinds of dares don't you? Well now's the chance to prove it. Or are you afraid to kiss a monstrosity like me?" Monstrosity? Is he serious? I've never met a more heart-stopping man in my entire life and he just called himself a monstrosity?

"You can't do it can you?" He sneered, obviously angry. I stood up and his eyes widened a fraction. He looked away, thinking I was going to leave. Is that what this really was? Why he's so angry with me all the time. It's because he believes he's too flawed for me? I mentally sighed. Mello, this only made me want you more. I thought to myself and strode over to the couch. I sat down infront of him, on my knees between his legs. Mello looked over at me, startled.

"Mello…" I whispered. His eyes searched mine. Anger, surprise, and doubt? Flashed through his eyes. He doubted that I actually wanted to kiss him. He doubted that maybe I cared. Shakily, I slowly raised my right hand. He watched me cautiously. I placed my hand onto the scarred side of his face. He leaned into it, nuzzling it, creating fireworks in my body. I licked my lips. How do I go about this? I've only been kissed once. O gods what if I screw up? I reached out and grasped his face in both my hands.

"Mello…" I whispered again, my heart pounding furiously. I leaned forward and gently, hesitantly put my lips onto his. I felt him hiss in a breathe of air. Heat bubbled through my lips but I ignored it. Mello didn't respond to me, he just stared. I felt my heart shatter. What more did I expect? I pulled away. I went to stand when his hand snaked out and grasped my back. I sucked in a quick breathe of air before I felt his lips crash down against mine. I was now the one speechless. I responded quickly, meshing our lips together in a combination of heat and fury. He moved me to where I was sitting on his lap. I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer. I wanted…no I needed him to be as close as possible.

He grasped my lower back and snaked his way into my hair, pulling on it so I could gasp. He gained entrance to my mouth and his tongue-explored mine, seeking dominance. I groaned at the heady decadence of it all. I wrapped my hands into his hair and yanked and he moaned into my mouth sending a shockwave through me. I pressed closer. He pulled away, breathing heavily. I yanked on his hair again and he groaned, bucking against me. I sucked in a breathe of air at the roar of pleasure that rocketed through me. His lips crashed down in mine again, his arms now snaked around my waist dragging me impossibly close, crushing me to him. I didn't mind. No I wanted more. I bit down on his bottom lip. He moaned, no longer trying to contain his need. His need for me. My stomach somersaulted. His hands slipped up my sides, and into my hair. I guess he was returning the favor because he yanked as hard as he could. I let out a moan against his lips, lifting my head up and accidentally bringing my chest up near his face. Well I guess I found a new turn on. Hair pulling. I brought my head back down. Mello was now watching me, both of us panting. If this is what happened with a kiss what would happen if it ever got…. serious? Mello leaned forward and placed a feather-light kiss upon my lips. I pressed forward, urging him on. He just smirked but then blinked and looked up at me. Whatever was in his eyes while we were kissing vanished and only anger and what seemed to be fear lay there. He shifted me off. Without giving me a final glance he stalked away, leaving me fell cold and empty.

"So how'd it go?" Matt asked. I shrugged. He raised his eyebrows.

"It was a kiss, nothing more or nothing less." I said, shoving on my hoodie. " Listen Matt, I'm tired and I want to go home. Tell Mello he can call for that date any time." I walked away. Matt caught up to me.

"Well atleast let me walk you to your car." I nodded and we headed out into the snow.

"Holy hell. Is this a Ford Shelby?" I smiled at Matt who was rubbing her sides gently.

"Yea, GT500 Super Snake. Model 10." He whistled.

"She's a beauty."

"I know." Matt gave me a hug.

"Drive carefully." He said. I snorted and he grinned. I hopped into my car and suddenly had the urge to look back. There in one of the dimly lit windows, Mello stood, watching me.

When I returned home, I turned on the TV, flicked on some music and cried myself to sleep.
