Mello's gay. Matt's straight. They've known these things about each other since they were sixteen, and there's never been a problem-not for Matt, anyway. Now, they're almost 22, and a well-intentioned but ill-thought-out kiss sets them up to unravel the assumptions they make about each other, as well as those they make about themselves. Shared apartment fic, non-Death Note AU.

It was an old habit, one that didn't bare much in mind where health was concerned. And besides, in a world of killer notebooks and gods of death, it's really not such a big deal. Arriving in London had little impact on his habit, but the introduction of an odd little red head certainly did. (Rated T for language and upsetting themes: eating disorders, specifically bulimia)

When Mello began messaging someone with the username Matt on a gaming website, he never considered the fact that the two of them could ever actually meet. As Mello texts Matt, and can't help but feel that the two understand each other. Circumstances push the two together IRL, but he soon realizes that in order to know someone you have to get in know them in person. (High school AU)

It's raining on the night that Matt finds Mello again.

"Did you just-?" He sat up, pushing his laptop to sit on the table by his chair. Matt's cheeks flushed a deep red and his eyes widened. "No!" He denied.. When Mello shows Matt a picture that he enjoys a little too much.

Prompt: "Near makes Matt and Mello really angry about something, so in order to get revenge the two of them end up having sex using Near's toys as sex toys." Safe, Sane, and Consensual BDSM.

Lovestories aren't written. They just happen because there's ground to let them happen. Or maybe because some changes are possible... Matt, homophobic, Mello, gay, and the ground's giving in under their feet...

"Ogni loro amplesso era così tanto coinvolgente, caldo, lussurioso e bramato, che non si proccuppavano molto se quello che facevano era giusto o era sbagliato."

Matt can be a vindictive b!tch sometimes.

Matt calms Mello's insecurities about his burn

Matt orders an elaborate sex doll from one of Near's bizarre "toy" catalogues. When the pretty blonde thing isn't quite as lifeless as meets the eye, will Matt end up being the real toy? Bondage kink written as a birthday present for ShinigamiMailJeevas! Originally a one-shot, but now with bonus chapter!

A flip of the coin, winner or loser. Matt did enjoy being the winner. PWP

Starved for affection and freedom, Mello, a teenager, finds solace in the arms of a rugged stranger that just moved in next door - and is also married. [AU]

Mello looks his best when he's naked, sweaty and begging for more. At least that's what Matt thinks PWP

They say all you need is love to survive. That's a lie, what I need is sex.

Mello will win by any means, even if it involves regrettable things

Negative: a processed piece of film where the image is reversed so that the shadows are light and the highlights are dark. What is it in the scarred, but insanely beautiful model facing him, that makes Matt so eager to focus and shoot the fragility under the tough attitude, the wounds under the fat ego?

"M-Matt…h-help me…" The gamer's breath hitched in his throat when he heard the familiar voice that flooded the phone's speakers. His felt his heartbeat accelerate. "Mello? Where are you?" All he could do was to pray to the idol he never thought existed.

This is what Mello is now. A whore. RodxMello

And I pull you into my arms, and I nip your ear with an 'I love you' on my lips, and you tell me you don't know how I can love you, because you're ugly, and you've killed and made a lot of mistakes and you're not even worth L. Matt POV.

The blonde angled the clunky, old fan on the table toward himself as he sprawled lazily across the tattered sofa. yaoi Mello x Matt
