Chapter 6!
Disclaimer: I really really wish I owned Death Note
Recap-"Look, Marsh, I hope you know I'm always going to be her for you."
"Thanks, Mello."
I fell asleep soon later, and woke up with the covers over me. I knew it was Mello and made a mental note to thank him later. I got up and went to the kitchen and made myself some toast and coffee. About an hour later, Matt came in and saw.
"Morning, Marsh. How are you feeling?"
"Much better."
"Good." and with that he left. Soon later, Mello walked by and saw. He smiled and sat in the chair across from me.
"Good morning, Marsh." Mello said with a large smile.
"Why are you so happy?"
"Can't a guy be happy when he looks at his girlfriend?" He said smirking.
"When did I become your girlfriend?"
"Last night, silly. After you fell asleep I declared you my girlfriend, duh!"
"Umm 'kay." I said. I mean we both liked each other. It could work, to a point, I guess.
I went off to work. When I got there, everyone was surprised. Why were they surprised you ask. I was early.
"Hey everybody."
"Marsh, what are you doing here early. You don't usually come until ten." Gevanni said.
"Well, it was awkward at home. So, I thought. Hey, I could go to work. Thus, I came to work."
"It's still weird." Gevanni mumbled. I was to happy to care though.
'Why wouldn't I be happy? Mello declared himself my boyfriend. He's cute when he's trying to act in charge.' I thought with a smile. "Did I really just think that?"
"Think what, Marsh?" Near said giving me a strange look.
"Oh, nothing, Near. Just thinking of which of my crazy cousins I should hook you up with." I said with a smirk.
"Oh, I'll take one of your crazy cousins. Are they cute?" Gevanni asked. Everyone just sweat dropped and laughed.
"Okay, so back to work. Near, what cases do we have today?" Halle asked. She always hated getting off topic.
"Actually, we don't have any cases. Just filing that needs to be done." Near said looking at which of us would do it.
"Not it!" Halle, Rester, and I yelled at the same time.
"Aw man, do I have to?" Gevanni whined.
"Yes, you do. Now get to it." Near said pointing at the three feet tall stack of files.
Rester, seeing no point in staying since they were no cases, left.
"Okay, Marsh, spill why were you early?" Halle was always one for gossip.
"I said it was awkward at home." Well, it was. Mello going around trying to act like my boyfriend, when he couldn't even touch me.
"Fine then be that way." Halle said. She then went on to complain about her fiancé telling her to quit. "I mean, he is so not the boss of me. So I said 'Back off jerk-off. I can work wherever I want.' And he was like 'Uh no, you can't. I'm the man of this relationship' He is just so infuriating, you know?"
"No, not a clue." I said. Actually, I didn't even really hear her.
"Well, I'm headed home for another night of Mr. I am the Man bossing me around." Halle said leaving.
"Bye, Halle, see you tomorrow." I said. "So, Near, can I ask you a question?"
"Is this about Mello?" Wow, Near was a genius.
"Yeah, last night we were talking. He said he'll always be there for me. This morning he said that he declared himself my boyfriend. Yeah what's up with that?"
"Hn, well, he obviously likes you. He probably wants you to know that as soon as he's back to life you're his." Near said. "It's not sure though, but he likes you."
"Yeah, I knew that. But why didn't he ask me himself?"
"Mello has a superiority complex and he's always afraid of failing or getting rejected."
"That would make sense." I said. I soon left to go home. As I arrived, the house was trashed. Mello and Matt were cleaning up.
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY HOUSE?" I yelled. How dare they destroy my house.
"It wasn't us, I swear." Matt said looking scared.
"Someone broke in. They tried to steal some electronics but Matt hit him with the flower vase on the coffee table and then the guy started picking things up and throwing at Matt. This is where I come in. So I walk in and walk right through the guy. He freaks and runs out yelling ghosts. Someone down the hall called the police, so they came and we relayed to story. Then five minutes later, you walked in the door." Mello said with large arm gestures and sometimes the occasional sound effects came from Matt, as he acted out the scene behind Mello.
"Wow, does stuff like this happen whenever I leave the house?"
"Nope." They both said shaking their heads.
"Alright, let's get this mess cleaned up." I said picking up some of the books. By 11 o-clock the house was cleaned.
"I am going to bed. Who knew cleaning was hard work?" Matt said leaving the room to go to bed, but he didn't clean at all.
"So how was your day Marsh?"
"Fine."
"That's good." Mello took my one-word answer, as I was mad at him. "Are you mad at me?"
"No."
"Why aren't you speaking in full sentences then?" Mello asked eying me suspiciously. "You're hiding something aren't you?"
"No."
"Then speak normally."
"I don't have anything to say."
"Marsh, you're weird."
"Thanks, Mello. Nice to know my boyfriend thinks I'm weird." I said sarcastically.
"I don't think you're weird, Marsh." Mello said frowning.
"Just said I was weird." Once again, I used sarcasm.
"I didn't mean it."
"I know."
"Well, why are making a big deal about it?" Mello said starting raise his voice.
"One word, Mello: sarcasm."
"Oh." He said looking sad.
"Don't worry, even Near has trouble telling whether or not I'm being sarcastic." There was an awkward silence. "I'm going to go to bed."
"I'll walk you to your room." Mello said. When we got their we both said goodnight, and I blew him a kiss.
Time skip to Christmas (December 25, 2012)
"Happy Christmas, Marsh" Mello said waking me up from my sleep. I simply grumbled.
"I'm guessing you don't like getting up." I only shook my head in response.
"Now get out, Mello. I need to get up so I can go make myself look pretty for Christmas." I said getting out of bed.
"Fine, but in my mind you always look pretty." Mello said while he left the room.
This is the end of Chapter 6! What will happen on Christmas? And Mello and Matt's death day is approaching. WHAT WILL HAPPEN? Only I know!
