Matt's POV

"Damn, why did I say I would sleep in the bed?" I muttered to myself with a pout. It hadn't been smart thinking on my part. I would be in the bed. Alone. With Mello. No. Not good at all.

I inwardly brooded. Even though I had bad vibes all along with doing it, I eventually dragged myself into Mello's bedroom in the middle of the night. It was odd that I actually fell asleep rather quickly and soundly when I got myself situated in the bed (a bit of distance away from Mello while at it). By morning, I could feel a warmness against me that felt quite nice. I was still in a half-conscious state so I couldn't tell exactly what it was. But it drew me closer – making me want to feel more of it, which I did. I snuggled closer with a faint smile. I couldn't understand how Mello's bed could be so comfortable, but it was. Maybe it was the soft mattress and warm pillows he had and-Wait a second. I nuzzled my head against 'supposed' pillow and caught heartbeats go through it. Strange.

I slowly opened my eyes and they widened at seeing Mello right there. And not only that, I was in his arms with my legs tangled up with his legs. Quickly, I sat up and broke away from him which was not as harsh as it probably should have been. "Uh...do you mind?" I said with putting up a frown and looking away since I was beginning to blush. Dammit. Not again.

Mello was smirking fully at me, having obviously enjoyed every second of it. His look told me he knew something and I grew unsure about it now. I may have shown just how much I enjoyed being in his arms. Shit. "Not really." He answered with no shame, giving a shrug. "Did you really expect me to not cuddle up to you if you slept in the same bed as me?" He laughed at me like I was a fool, standing up from the bed and giving a stretch while doing so. He had no shirt on - just loose pajama pants - and his posture held no shame of being half naked in front of me. It was like he knew I wouldn't be disgusted by it.

I sat there blushing, not being able to help but stare at his perfect chest from all over. I assumed he was beginning to get dressed as he grabbed that cross necklace he owned and headed over to a closet. "If you stay on the bed for much longer, I'll assume you want me to get back in it. And since I'm horny, I think you can guess what I'll attempt." He mentioned in an amused tone, looking over his shoulder at me now.

I blinked, clearly blushing more and got myself right out of the bed. No, it was not like I really would have mind doing that with Mello. But still, I could not fall into the temptation. I had to be strong here. "Feh. No need for that." I mumbled in a way that made me seem like I was uninterested. I pulled at my clothes a little once I stood, seeing they had became more wrinkled on my body since I slept in them.

I heard him laugh again while taking out his clothes to put on. Obviously, he didn't care with me being nearby as he began to dress right in front of me now. I saw he didn't wear any underwear. Probably didn't own any actually. "Oh, and I'm going clubbing tonight. You can join me if you would like." He offered, now turning his focus fully to me as he began to put on his boots, that knowing smirk back on his face.

I let a hand run through my messy hair while still blushing a little. "Clubbing? Pfft. That's pointless." I said it in a mocking tone,. And even though, I've never been clubbing, I wasn't bothered to give it a try. I didn't believe I needed to as I preferred more to stay inside and crash on the couch while playing video games all day. It was my everyday schedule – back at my own place at least. I mentally sighed when I realized how much I wanted to take a shower right now, but I didn't have any fresh clothes to put on afterward. "Hey, do you think maybe you can drop me off at my place just so I can pick up some clothes here? I mean, I don't have any." I announced.

The smirk stayed on Mello's face as he finished dressing himself. "Yeah, I suppose. I'd ask if you wanted to wear my clothes, but they're all tight and I don't think you'd enjoy wearing leather. It'd make you look presentable, at least, but you know..." He shrugged and walked past me now. "We can have breakfast on the way back somewhere. Then I can get you sorted." He settled and disappeared into the bathroom.

I sighed softly, guessing it will have to do then. I didn't have much of a choice but to deal with his say-so on things now. "Greaat." I stated a bit flatly and walked into the living room where the long couch was at, plopping myself onto it. I guess I would just wait until Mello got finished with whatever he was doing in the bathroom. There was nothing else for me to do now. I didn't want to game as I wanted a shower much more now. "Hey, Mels," I called in the nickname I gave to him when we were younger. I don't know I why I did, and I hoped he wouldn't take it as a sign I was warming up to him. "Do you think maybe I can get in a shower at my place too...?" It was annoying needing to ask for it, but I was still under his rules here.

Mello was quiet until he came out of the bathroom. "Yeah, whatever. You'll have to make it quick, okay?" He stated while going into the living room where I was at. "Come on, let's go." He commanded and walked to the door to unlock it.

I stood from the couch with a small smile, happy to know Mello was going to allow me to do what I would like to get done now. If I was lucky, I could maybe even get him to let me take all my video games and electronics with me too. I shrugged slightly. I probably shouldn't overdo it with him. But who cared? It couldn't hurt to ask, right?
