Everything seemed perfect. Matt finally was without symptoms, while Mello had returned to work fort he mafia (Matt was quite worried about this fact, but he knew Mello could take care of himself), and Matt sat in their new home doing household work like a good housewife. Well, like a lazy but loving housewife hit more. He cleaned up when there were no more dishes to eat on, and he washed the clothes, but beside some small hacking orders he got from Mello he only played his old video games.
This evening, Mello came home earlier than usually and he had three shopping bags with him.
Matt was delighted about him being home, he took the bags from him and took a look inside. Then he looked inquiringly at the blonde. "And what shall I eat?" Of course, in all three bags was nothing other than chocolate…
Mello grinned, gave him a kiss on his lips and said, "One bag's still in the car. Pizza's ok, isn't it?"
Calmed, Matt nodded.
"As if I forgot you! I've brought cigarettes for you, too."
"Who are you and where the hell has Mello gone?", Matt said half seriously, half in jest. "No, don't tell me I forgot something… My birthday is in two months, your's in a week, so…"
Mello grinned. "I've got the weekend free and I thought we could make it ourselves… a bit… comfortable…" The last words were spoken with a suggestive smile.
Matt replied the grinning. He already had thought about something like this, after Mello had bought lubricant gel the week before.
In the recent weeks, they were moved, so after cleaning up their new house they had been pretty tired in the evenings, so they never had done more than cuddling.
Grinning, Matt pulled his lover to himself and kissed him passionately.
But Mello pushed him away gently. "Tonight, 'kay? Let's first clear away the shopping."

In the evening, Mello asked Matt to employ himself with his Playstation for a bit, but finally he called him to the dining table.
Matt was amazed. Mello had put red candles all over the table and done everything to serve Pizza in an elegant way. In addition to the plates there were wine glasses.
"Wow…"
Mello grinned and offered him his arm.
"You may sit down now."
"Mello it's…"
"We've something to celebrate, don't we? After all, you've been clean for a month."
"Yeah, but…"
From the background he could hear some old rock ballads, and even Mello wasn't in his skin tight leather clothes, but wore a black shirt and jeans.
Matt was stirred how much Mello had done for this night.
Slowly he sat down.

After dinner, they went into the bedroom where Mello drew the redhead to himself and kissed him. Matt was aware of to what this would lead and somehow the idea of it made him nervous, because he was afraid he'd hurt his boyfriend.
Mello felt how nervous Matt was and caressed his cheek carefully. "No need to fear, Matty…", he whispered.
"But… If I hurt you, I…"
Mello shook his head. "I'm sure you'd stop if I told you it hurt too much. I trust you, so I'm not afraid."
Slowly his hands glided under the shirt of the redhead and stroke his back before he pulled him by stroking him to the bed.
Matt took a deep breath and wondered how the blonde could make him so excited with just a small touch.
Timid, he copied the movement of his boyfriend while pulled his shirt upwards.

Then he kissed him again.
Mello was a bit faster than the redhead. Once he had helped him to get out of his shirt, he brought his hand onto Matt's trousers. He grinned smugly when he felt the already steadfast manhood. Slowly, he went on with his hand, caressed the whole length of the redhead, while Matt was moaning shortly which casued much fun to the blonde.
"You really seemed to have waited for me…"
"Mel, the..."
But the blonde layed a finger on his lips and let Matt's hand to his own jeans. Matt knew what his beloved wanted and slowly opened the trousers.
Shortly after it the both layed naked beneath and touched each other a bit shy- Matt was more shy than Mello- and their breath went loudly.
When Matt noticed Mello pressed against his touches more and more, he tried to oppress his fear and turned around to the drawer to take the lubricant out of it.
As Mello nodded, he screwed some of it out of the tube to his fingers and led them slowly to the entrance of the blonde.
Mello groaned when he was penetrated by the first finger and Matt stopped immediately. "Does it hurt?", he asked a bit shocked, but Mello's face showed a smile when he shook his head. Slowly Matt continued moving his finger back and forth several times, before he added a second one, and finally a third.
When Mello seemed prepared enough, he took him by the waist and brought his erection in position, but hesitated.
"Mel, I… If I hurt you, tell me, ok? I don't want…"
"You'll see it if it hurts me, Matt. But I trust you…" Mello gasped slightly out of breath. And carefully Matt pushed into him.
Mello made a face and Matt immediately became uncertain again. "Does it hurt? Shall I stop it?"
"No… No… Don't stop, only… Wait a bit, ok?"
And the redhead remained still until the blonde began to move against him.
It was tight and warm and hot and… Comparable with nothing Matt had experienced ever before. Still, he was carefully looking not to hurt his boyfriend, but the more often he pushed into him, the more secure was he.
It didn't last long until he came.
For a moment he remained in Mello but then he pulled out. He knew, the blonde hadn't had an climax yet and so he leaned forward to change that.
"Matt…", the elderly moaned when his cock was surrounded by Matt's tongue which brought him to climax.
As soon as he got enough breath again, he pulled Matt's face to his own and held him in his arms.
For a while they didn't say anything totally got by the fresh sensation.
Then Matt said, "I… I'sorry I was early…"
But Mello grinned and shook his head. "Doesn't matter. It was… It was great, though."
To be honest, from Mello's point of view it had been good that the redhead had made it this way in the end because although he had loved every moment of it, it had been painful. Not as much as he couldn't bear but…. It had hurt but Mello was still sure he wanted to do it again some time- of course not immediately. So he hadn't said anything. He didn't want Matt to feel insecure again.
He kissed his boyfriend tenderly.
"I love you. You know that?"
The redhead smiled and blushed a little before he replied, "I love you, too, Mel.."
Everything seemed perfect.

Neither of them thought for only a moment that this situation could change so quickly…
