Matt wakes up the next morning, he cuddle closer to his pillow as he yawn softly only to sit up in shock when his 'pillow' move slightly.
He looked down and whimpers softly when he saw Mello sleeping next to him.
So it wasn't a dream...I-I gave into pleasure last night and made a promise to Mello...
Tears flow down his face. I can never leave Mello anymore...why...why do I have to be so loyal to the person who rape me?
He curled up and sob softly, waking Mello who sat up and hugs him gently.
"Shh...it's going to be alright now, Matt. I'll take good care of you." He whisper softly and gently kiss his cheek.
Matt flinches slightly and whimpers. "Why, Mello? Why did you do that to me?"
Mello gently kiss his forehead. "You're mine, Matt. I can't have you leave me again. I'll go get us our breakfast." He got out of bed and walk out of the room.
Matt watches him leave with teary eyes as he wraps the blanket around himself tightly.
He looks down and saw Mello's pants, he quietly walk towards it and pick it up, he look through the pockets and grin when he found Mello's phone.
Yes! Now to call Near to see if he knows what's wrong with Mello.
He quickly call Near and waited nervously for him to pick up.
Come on, Near! Answer the phone! Mello could be back any minute now!
"Hello." Near greeted softly.
"Near! Oh thank god you answered!" Matt sighs in relief.
"Matt? Why are you calling me with Mello's number?"
"Err...yeah that's not important now, did you get into a fight with Mello?"
"I guess you can put it that way."
"Look whatever he did I'm sure he's very sorry and won't do it again. You should give him another chance."
"...It is not what he did, Matt. It is what he did not do."
Matt blink in surprise. "What didn't he do?"
"He has not been answering my calls and when he calls me it is always to ask if I know where you are...he loves you, Matt. It is not fair to anyone for us to stay together."
"What? You broke up with him because he wasn't paying attention to you? Really Near? You should know he's like that when he's focused on something. That's no reason to break up with him."
"It is already done. I am not going to change my mind."
"But Near-" Matt jump slightly when he heard something being put down violently.
He looks towards the door only to see Mello glaring at him with their breakfast on the table next to the door. "What do you think you're doing, Matt?" Mello asked coldly. He rip the phone out of his hand and throw it against the wall hard enough for it to break into two.
Matt cries as the phone hit the wall and back away from Mello.
Mello quickly reach out and pull him back by his hair, making him look into his eyes. "Answer me, Matt. Why did you call him? Do you like him better? Did you call him to save you?" He hissed angrily.
Matt eyes tear up as he tries to loosen Mello tight hold on his hair. "No Mello. I only wanted to know what happened between the two of you. I promise I won't call him ever again. Please let go, you're hurting me." He whimpers.
Mello's eyes soften when he look into Matt's teary eyes and saw that he's telling the truth, he let go of Matt's hair and gently rub his head. "You could have asked me if you wanted to know. I would have told you."
"But you didn't wanted me to talk about him." Matt matter softly as he looks down.
Mello gently cup his head, lifting his head up and look into his eyes. "I know you'll ask, Matt. And I was ready to answer you." He said softly so he doesn't scare him.
"I'm sorry, Mello. I didn't know..." He said softly.
Mello gently kiss his forehead. "It's alright, Matt. I forgive you."
Matt smile slightly. "Thank you, Mello."
"Hey Matt...can you sing for me? You have a very beautiful voice." Mello look into his eyes as he rest his forehead Matt's.
Matt blush slightly as he nods. "Do you have a piano? It's better if I sing with the music. And don't worry, I won't run away I promised I'll stay with you remember?" He said the last part when he saw Mello hesitant.
Mello nods as he unlock the collar and hand him his clothes before getting dressed himself.
Matt quickly get dressed and follow Mello to the living room where there's a piano sitting at the side.
Matt sat down and gently open it, he started playing the piano and sing Where Do We Draw the Line by Poets Of The Fall.
On your palm an endless wonder
The lines that speak the truth without a sound
And in your eyes awaits the tireless hunger
Already looks for prey to run down
Matt close his eyes as he let his fingers dance across the keys.
So why do we keep up this charade
N' how do we tell apart the time to leave from the time to wait
Mello lean against the back of the couch as he watch Matt play the piano professionally and listen to his beautiful voice.
What does tomorrow want from me
What does it matter what I see
If it can't be my design
Tell me where do we draw the line
Tell me where do we draw the line
Mello close his eyes, feeling himself calm down as he listen to Matt.
The dance of flames and shadows in the street
Make poetry nobody's ever heard
The weight of loneliness stands on your feet
The cage already there around the bird
Mello smile slightly as he relax.
So why don't we join the masquerade
Before it falls apart, before our love becomes insatiate
Mello open his eyes slightly and walk towards Matt.
What does tomorrow want from me
What does it matter what I see
If I can't choose my own design
Tell me where do we draw the line
Mello stood behind Matt, he watches as his body seems to be moving along with the music.
What does tomorrow want from me
What does it matter what I see
If we all walk behind the blind
Tell me where do we draw the line
Tell me where do we draw the line
Mello close his eyes as he listen to his voice closely.
Where's the cooling wind
Where's the evergreen field
Where's my mother's open arms
Where's my father lionheart
S'like the sun's gone down
Sleeps in the hallowed ground now
With the autumn's browns leaves
With the one who never grieves
He can hear it, he can feel it. The emotions Matt put into each word he sing.
So why do we keep up this charade
N' how do we tell apart the time to leave from the time to wait
Mello quickly thought back to all the times he listened to Matt sing and realised he has always poured his emotions into every song he sings.
What does tomorrow want from me
What does it matter what I see
If it can't be my design
Tell me where do we draw the line
Mello hugs him gently from behind and gently nuzzle his shoulder.
Whatever tomorrow wants from me
At least I'm here, at least I'm free
Free to choose to see the signs
This is my line
Matt close his eyes sadly and lean against Mello once he has finished the song...knowing that he'll never be free...there is no way to break away from the invisible collar he has around his neck...and there's no way Mello will ever let go of the leash...he is his till the day one of them die...no...if Mello die he will die too...even in death he'll still be holding onto the leash tightly and will pull him down with him sooner or later...and when that day come he'll gladly follow him...because he know he'll never be able to live without him anymore.
Mello lean down and gently kiss him lovingly. "You're mine, all mine. I'm not sharing, neither am I going to let you go. I love you, Mail."
Matt kiss him back lovingly "All yours. I belong to you only. No one else. I'm never leaving
you. I love you too, Mihael."
Yes...not even death will break them apart...they'll be together forever.
