Farewell

Mello's POV

"Mommy.. can we go to the toy store later?" little Noel whined, his voice so cute it could get him anything he wanted. To say that Near had spoilt him would be an understatement. The two of them are relentless with their demands, just last Tuesday I'd spend more than 1000 in Toys R Us, and that's considered very subtle.

"No" I said firmly, I'm not going to be a pushover with them anymore. "So daddy doesn't want to go to the toy store?" he cocked his little head, bluish grey eyes wide. "No." I said again, more firm this time.

"Mommy?" he shifted to Near who was munching on a sandwich. The two of them tilting their head at each other. It's surprising how alike the two of them looked, it was as if Noel was growing fairer each day to match up with Near, his hair now barely a hue of yellow, sweet curls fingered his round cheeks in a very Near-like manner and even though we have picnics like this often, his skin seemed to be getting lighter as time passes. The only thing he truly resembled me was those lively eyes, that were always glistening blue under it's natural shade of grey.

"Alright, I will take Noel to the toy store." See what I mean about Near spoiling our kid.

"Yay! Noel and Mommy are going to the toy store!" he hoorayed.

"Near! You can't just freakin' give him everything he wants!" my voice raised, "The kid needs boundaries."

"Boundaries? I don't think that is necessary. When I was his age, I used to do the exact things. Furthermore, toys are essential stimuli for his healthy mental growth." Near deadpanned.

"Essential stimuli for what?! What the hell! Near-"

"And also" Near cut me off, giving me what I would make out as a glare, "I would appreciate it if Mello would mind his language around little Noel."

"My what?" I paused, noticing how Noel was staring at me, I took a deep breath to calm down, "I'm sorry" calming down some more, ignoring the fact that Near was also teaching Noel the bad habit of speaking in third-person. I'll let that one off for now.

"Are mommy and daddy fighting?" the two of us swapped our attention to the four-year old whose eyes were slightly watery. "No, of course not, we're just discussing." Near answered, being the one better with words.

"What are you drawing there kiddo?" I quickly change the subject, looking at the sketch book held between those tiny hands. A bright smile formed on his adorable face, lifting the book so both Near and I could get a good look. What the?!

"It's the atomic structure of carbon." such an innocent voice.

"That's very good. Why don't you try drawing its crystalline lettice next." Near encouraged.

I pulled Near aside, saying quietly, "Near, when the heck did he learn that kind of stuff?" Near blinked, then answered plainly, "After he had learnt the tables of multiplication, I think, then I thought him the periodic table on Monday."

"That's not what I mean" I furrowed my brow. "Oh.." still monotonous as ever, "I suppose not long after Mello taught him to disassemble a gun and other ammunitions."

Damn it, the little guy told on me, so much for father-son code of honor.

…silence….

"Mommy, daddy, look" We turned looking at the sketch book again, this time it had a different drawing. There was a yellowed hair guy dressed in all black, and an all white girl who if someone didn't know better would mistaken for a boy, hugging a little fair toddler in their arms. Is this what we look like as a family?

"It's beautiful" Near spoke first, giving Noel a hug.

"Yea, good job kiddo." I joined the hug just as it was drawn on the paper.

….

….

….

"So…can we go to the toy store now?" Noel asked suddenly, catching me off guard. This kid's seriously getting sneaky, I don't know where the heck he gets that attitude from.

"Sure, let's pack things up and we can go." Near said, voice a little more animated as she always does with Noel, but not me. "We can go, right?" Near gave me a look that was absolute. "Fine" I mumbled. "Yay!" little Noel clapped. I sighed. These two kids are going to be the end of me.

Near's POV

We ventured off to the toy store, Noel and I having our little shopping spree, but I felt bad for Mello, so this time we only bought two carts of toys, I think that seemed quite reasonable, considering our last trip to the store was about a week ago.

I decided that I should pay for our spending this time, not that either of us had financial problems, since we were working together on cases, therefore, increasing our work efficiency by 24.8%. In that matter, I still couldn't understand why Mello still had a displeased look on his face as we loaded our things into the Hummer, perhaps I would make it up to him tonight.

"Mommy" little Noel tugged my sleeve, "can we go to the candy store next?"

"Sure!" I turned to face Mello whose mood has swung 180 degrees.

"Yay!" Noel cheered.

"Mello" I resume my calm nature, "too much sweets is not good for him." or his teeth, although Noel didn't seem to display such a problem.

"But mommy…I don't want sweets. I want chocolate!" This child sure was quick, no surprise there, considering who his father was, and Mello wonders where Noel gets his attitude from.

"Yeah mommy…the kid wants chocolate" Mello smirked. Noel grinned widely, his eyes shining blue out of it's nature of grey. Even though Noel looked more like me, he had Mello's spunk, and his eyes showed it clearly. How I love those eyes.

I just sighed, watching Mello spoil our child with an emporium of chocolate, and he says I need to set boundaries?

"Mommy" Noel tugged my shirt again as we drove along, "would you like some?" He handed a small shiny triangle to me.

"Thank you" I took it, unwrapping the foil and placing the chocolate in my mouth. It was sweet, just as everything else was at the moment.

"I love you, mommy" Noel's sweet voice cooed, smiling at me, then quickly turning to face Mello, "I love you too daddy."

"I love you too squirt." Mello was faster.

"Yes, as I love you, Noel" I smiled, having the warmest feeling build up inside me.

It was a quiet drive after that. We arrived at Wammy's late at night, little Noel had fallen asleep, which was good, it would have made things a lot easier.

"Please take care of him" I said to Roger who just hummed a yes.

"Yeah.." Mello was quiet but I knew he was sad too.

"Near.." Mello said, abruptly stopping the car next to the empty dark road. I turned to face him, he wore a very sad look on his face, it must've been really hard to hold in the emotions.

"It's alright, Noel knows we're doing what's best for him." I tried to sooth, running a hand on his scarred cheek.

He shook his head, blonde hair swishing, "He's going to hate us."

"Goodbye" I said softly, still holding myself together. I tiptoed, meeting our lips together. Mello caught me, hands wrapping tightly to my waist, deepening the kiss. Then he let go, turning around, and walking off without saying another word.

After the coast was clear, I fell to my knees, breaking down, crying my heart out.

Goodbye…

Yay! Finish!!...I feel a load off my shoulders...I know it's not exactly what everyone expected...but this is how I think it should end...anyways..I don't really know what would happen to the three of them...but they should be ok...anyway final REVIEWS!!..pls..
