Mello's POV


"I can't believe you did that!" Matt angrily paced back and forth across the room; this was the most alive I'd seen him in a long time.

"Yeah, well, I never said that I was nice." I shrugged leaning back on the striped couch, amused with the situation.

"I-I can't believe it!" He shouted in frustration.

"Now, now, Matty." I stood up and walked over to him, he backed away from me. "What's wrong?" I frowned.

"No." Matt shook his head, continuing until he was up against the wall.

"Don't worry," I whispered, coming up to him and breathing in his ear, "I won't take orange."

A sob racked through his body. "H-how?"

"I'm good at guessing." I tried my best to sooth him.

I let him take me with him when he sank to the floor. I rocked him gently, making what I guessed were comforting noises and he quieted slowly.

"What could we have done to stop this?" Matt whispered, voice hoarse.

"There are a few things." I whispered back, not wanting to frighten him.

"I could have pulled up the nerve to talk to you." The red head's eyes were staring at the logo on my black T-shirt as though if he didn't he would crumble.

"Oh?" I raised a brow.

"Yeah," Matt laughed softly, "When you first came, I always thought that you were the prettiest girl."

I frowned, but didn't say anything.

"Then, there was this time that you were beating the shit out of this kid named Flare. I overheard you screaming at him that you weren't a girl." He shrugged. "I ran away then, I'd wanted to speak to you, but I was too nervous."

"I see, am I still as scary as I was as a child?" I grinned at him, as he lifted his head up and locked his eyes with my lips.

"Sometimes…" He reached up hesitantly, and pressed his lips to mine. "I wonder what it would have been like…"

"So do I." I rested my chin on his head, and rubbed his back comfortingly.

I wonder what it would have been like. I would give anything to just know.


Author's Note= Wow. So here we are. The end of Hack My Heart. ='(

I'm sad that it's over. But it's not completely over, now is it? There's going to be a sequel, and I'll post a note when it's begun, I promise that updates on the sequel will be much better than they were for HMH. I will in fact be writing a little "Thanks for 10,000 Hits" bonus chapter, I'm not sure what it will be about yet.
