Chapter 4

The car pulled up and Mello quickly got out and Matt only stayed in the car and knew he was in trouble with Mello for kissing him. Mello went into the hotel and Near followed at his own pace leaving the sunglasses in the back seat having no use for them, and would never wear them even if he needed to. Matt sighed and let another cig and drove away, Mello and Near walked up to the front desk checking in with the case and the women now behind it told them they switched rooms. "You still have the room, but the others moved to another room." She told them and Mello and Near just went up to the room and in fact they were alone, the computers were still there.

"They probably went to sleep, we should sleep to." Near said taking off his shoes and walking into the hotel room. "There is only one bed and I am not sleeping on the couch or floor." Mello followed Near into the room, who already got on the bed sitting on it. "Well I am not either so we are sharing." He told Mello and got under the covers. Mello stood there looking down at the other and balled his fist up and looked out the window. The sun was out now for they had stayed up two days now and did need sleep. He shut the curtains and the door to the room and locked it so the others wouldn't disturb them.

Mello climbed into the bed and sat on the edge, while he took off his shirt and pants. He climbed into bed and laid on the very edge not wanting to do this but he wasn't about to let him get the whole bed. He did the most work today all Near did was stand there and doing nothing!

The bed was nice and soft; Mello moved more in on the bed during the night and so did Near. He didn't have any toys with him he could cuddle with; he was cold as well even under the blankets. Mello was warm, he moved to Mello; Near awake and knowing what he was doing. He really didn't care if the other would get mad he needed something to snuggle. Near pulled Mello close to him and wrapped his arms and legs around him and held him tightly hiding his head into his bare shoulder.

Mello woke up in the night he heard talking outside the door and he moved but felt himself pinned down by something. His eyes flew open and looked around and saw Near cuddling with him, he stared at him for a long moment. He was in heaven and dreaming, clearly dreaming, so he closed his eyes. Near was so soft, his hairs, face, skin, clothes and with that face hidden in his shoulder. The light breathing moving down the base of his neck and chest he let out his own breathe trying to control himself. This is what he hated; he was under Nears control sometimes Near was just cuddling with him oh it made his heart melt into a heart Slurpee.

Mello just held his eyes closed and just waited for this dream to be over, he ended up falling back asleep with Near's touch being very calming to him. But Mello woke up again feeling Near move and get out of bed, how could he just leave him so easily? He was the first one to cuddle with Mello! What the fuck!

Mello moved and sat up with yawn acting like he knew nothing. "Get some breakfast and let's get to work." Near told him not looking over at him as he started to build blocks again; Mello said nothing and he got up and put pants on and went to the phone. "What do you want?" He asked before dialing. "Just get me some waffles." He told him and Mello ordered the food and opened the door and people started coming in and out of the room talking to mainly Near. Mello sighed to himself, he hated how everyone just went to him, and he didn't do anything! All he did was play and talk this was annoying as fuck. "If you are just going to talk to N this whole time than you don't need me." Mello closed his laptop and Near just sat there playing with his dice.

The screen in front of Near flicked on and a voice came on as well, it was auto toned so you couldn't tell who it was. A W was on the screen standing for Wammys most likely. "No M, we do need you. The photos you took were great, much better than the polices they have helped us with the case." Mello walked up to the table slamming his hands on the desk. "Near doesn't do anything! I am here too and everyone is going to Near!" Mello yelled at the screen. "Please calm down M. N has his own way of doing things and you know this, do not think he does nothing. Everyone coming to him asking questions is his job and you know that. You are here to see how well you can work with others." The voice told him. "I left this place for a fucking reason!"

"Yes, but we need you." The calm voice said.

"No you don't, you have N you have all the help you can get." Mello turned.

"I wouldn't say that…" Near spoke up stacking his dice and looked over at Mello calmly. "You looking up things and those photos were quite helpful; with you reporting things to me I can solve this case ten times as fast." He told Mello calmly. "Yeah you…" Mello looked to the side. "Well I will get all the fame the public wants what it wants. You however will get the fame in the Wammys house and that is better than the public fame. You know the Wammys house is way better for you than riding solo. Look what happen with Kira…" Near told him and finished his tower and looked at Mello, Mello eyes were wide and he was shaking and just turned and went to the bedroom bathroom and shut the double door behind him. "He is staying." Near said simply and the computer screen shut off.
