Hello thar! I'm back with chapter eight!! Angels (By Within Temptation)! Thank you to ginniirox, HaliDarkFire, Deishi-Sama, Kaze Kimizu and EmiJade-3-13 for reviewing! And thank you EmiJade-3-13 (again) and XxtaintedflamexX for the story alert and sefieshuko for the favorite!

I think the first part of this fails terribly. And I added the middle part because it came into my head and made me giggle. The last part was to get the plot really going.

Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note, Matt or Beyond Brithday.

Matt stared at Ryuzaki. He was terrified. He slowly backed away into the 'home' they shared. Ryuzaki followed, the smile still on his face. Tears started to form in Matt's eyes. "You really are a murderer…" He whispered.

"Is that a problem?" The man asked, going up to the boy and caressing his cheek. "You know I would never hurt you ever again." His finger traced the small cut line that was starting to close and heal. "But…But why do you…murder people?" Matt wanted to know the straight forward answer but he probably wouldn't get it.

"Why?" He started to laugh. An evil, terrifying laugh that would make gang leaders shake in fear. Matt backed away even more, stepping on the shag rug. His foot dipped into the sticky stains splattered all over the white rug. By just the feel of the stain pressed against his foot, he knew they weren't strawberry stains. Ryuzaki approached him again.

He wrapped his arms around Matt's slim waist and pulled him close into his chest. "Living in this world is difficult for some people. Food is needed to live right?" Ryuzaki leaned even further down and rested his head on Matt's shoulder. "The way I make my strawberry jam is very…interesting…" He breathed against the boy's neck, sending shivers down Matt's spine. "First, I find a victim, kill them, and then drain some of their blood into a jar. I store the blood into the freezer for about an hour or two. Then let it sit out, then once it is somewhat melted, I put it in the fridge."

Matt bit his bottom lip. He wanted to scream. To shove the man off of him. To run far away from this god forsaken place…

(god forsaken…place…)

No, not now. This was more important then them. They no longer mattered to him. What mattered to him was Ryuzaki. But…He felt like he didn't belong here with the man. He wanted to be here, he wanted to run away. He wanted to pull him closer, he wanted shove him away. He wanted to scream, he wanted to cry. He didn't know what to do…

"Ryuzaki…I…" He spoke to the man. Ryuzaki lifted his head up and looked at the boy. He tried to meet Matt's gaze but Matt seemed to be avoiding his eyes. "Yes? What is it, Matty?" Matt looked him in the eyes. Ryuzaki could see the fear and sadness in his eyes. He was tired of seeing his pet so sad. He took the boy's chin into one of his hands, his other with his fingers interlocking with his belt loop of his jeans. "Please don't be sad, Matty. It makes me sad too."

Matt moved his head to right, breaking the man's grasp. He looked at the ground, his head turned away from Ryuzaki. "I'm…I'm just so scared." The black haired man moved his neck so his face was in front of Matt's. "It's okay. I promise I will never do anything to hurt you." He whispered. He looked down also. "I'm also somewhat scared."

Matt looked up the man, "Why?" He whispered back. "I'm scared that you're going to leave me…Like all the others. The others…They were horrified. It didn't matter how much I said I loved them and needed them…They still ran away." Ryuzaki looked at Matt in the eyes. "Please don't leave me…I need you Matty, You're the only one I care for the most out of all of them."

(playing the guilt card eh anything to make him stay i love him you sure its not lust i'm sure)

Matt smiled at Ryuzaki. "I…Need you too. You're all I have. Everyone I ever cared about left me." The man smiled back. "You're going to stay?" Matt nodded in response. "Thank you, Matty..."

Matt laid on the bed on his stomach, trying to eat out of a bento box with chop sticks. He was starting to get frustrated. Ryuzaki laid beside him, also on his stomach. He let out a small laugh at the boy's attempt. The red head glared jokingly at the man. "Should I feed you again? It was a lot of fun." Ryuzaki said to the boy, a smirk blooming on his face.

Matt smirked at him back. "Do you just love embarrassing me?" Ryuzaki snaked his arms around Matt, pulling him closer. "Of course, you just look so cute when you blush. It makes me want to do things to you." The man whispered in the boy's ear. Matt blushed at his words. Ryuzaki kissed his cheek, feeling the warmth. He nuzzled his head into the red head's neck.

"Ryuzaki…" Matt said quietly. Ryuzaki looked up. "Yes, my pet?" The man petted his hair, smiling. "What did you do to get these bento boxes?" Matt asked picking up the box. Ryuzaki smiled evilly. "Who said they were bento boxes?"

Matt eyes went wide, remembering the conversation about the strawberry jam, and dropped the box franticly, pulling his hands close to his chest The contents went spilling all over the bed. Ryuzaki burst out laughing. Matt looked at him questionly. "I…I was only k-kidding!" He could barely even speak he was laughing so hard.

"Ryuzaki…That was a cruel joke!" Matt playfully yelled at the man. He soon started laughing himself. "Sorry…I had to." Ryuzaki said once they calmed down. "They are real bento boxes. I just stole them." Matt looked at him, serious now. "Did you kill anybody?" Ryuzaki looked away. "Just one person."

Matt looked down at the food all over the bed. He felt bad eating someone else's food, especially if they were killed just for him to be able to eat. He sighed deeply. Ryuzaki looked at back at him. "I didn't mean to. They wouldn't let me get away so I had to kill them."

Ryuzaki, with his arms still around Matt, pulled him into a tight hug. He kissed his forehead. "Next time, I'll try not to." He whispered.

(you sure there is going to be a next time)

Matt sat on the bed, looking around at nothing in particular. He was in very deep thought. He decided to finally let his thoughts roam about Mello, his ex-best friend. He realized how much of a bastard Mello truly was. He constantly bossed him around when they were younger. He had no idea why he stayed by his side though. Did he really think he was in love? Man, he sure was stupid when he was younger. His mind played the scene when he told Mello about his feelings.

A young head of red slowly walked over to a blond boy sitting on a windowsill, looking out over the yard. "Mello…" He said quietly, hoping to get his attention. Mello turned his head and looked at the younger boy. "What, Matt?" He asked irritated. Did Matt really irritate him just by speaking to him? "Uh…I have something to tell you." Mello stood up. "What? Did the rankings change?" Of course, that was all Mello cared about. Beating Near and becoming fucking number one so he could succeed L.

"No…But…I wanted to tell you something personal." Matt said, a blush forming on his cheeks. "Personal?" Mello narrowed his eyes at him. "Yeah…Mello…I…I… like…you…a lot." He said quietly, part of him hoping Mello didn't hear. Mello stared at him then an angry expression grew on his face. "Matt, I'm not a fucking girl, you should know that."

"I do know that." Matt responded simply, looking down. Mello looked at him as if we were insane. "Okay…So wait, are you trying to tell me you're a fag?" Mello smirked at him. "That's really disgusting Matt." The younger boy looked up, a hurt expression on his face. He slowly started to walk over to Mello. "Don't come near me, Matt. I don't want to be around a fag."

Ryuzaki walked out of the bathroom, fully dressed and a towel on his dripping wet head. He looked over to the bed. He saw Matt with his knees pressed against his chest, crying into his knees.

Okay, just to get things clear: THIS WILL NOT BECOME A MATTXMELLO FANFIC!

Also the title of this chapter that was chosen, parts of it are Matt to B and Matt to Mello.

Matt to B

Sparkling angel I believe
You were my savior in my time of need.
Blinded by faith I couldn't hear
All the whispers, the warnings so clear.
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door.

Matt to Mello
There's no escape now,
No mercy no more.
No remorse cause I still remember

The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.


Matt to B
Sparkling angel, I couldn't see
Your dark intentions, your feelings for me.
Fallen angel, tell me why?
What is the reason, the thorn in your eye?
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door

Matt to Mello
There's no escape now
No mercy no more
No remorse cause I still remember

The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.

Matt to both B and Mello
This world may have failed you,
It doesn't give the reason why.
You could have chosen a different path in life.

Matt to Mello
The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.
