Day and Night Six

Matt's mouth dropped open and he stammered out as the color drained from his face, "W-Wait, What? ! K-Kill me? ! The hell are you talking about?"

Already walking towards the door, I said over my shoulder, "Go to your house and pick up your things. If you don't come back your dead."

"But Mello I can't drive!" Matt whined.

"Don't care!" I shouted, opening the door and slamming it behind me. Damn, what a pain in the neck this all is... I thought, rubbing my forehead momentarily. Maybe it would've been better just to kill him that night. He doesn't have any family, nobody would notice if a guy like him went missing. I started walking back towards the town, thinking about what I had said to him. Wandering the streets looking a bite seemed harder lately. There's no way I'm gonna feed off Matt after what I just told him.

'If you try to leave or run away, I won't hesitate to kill you.'

Sigh. What the hell was I thinking back there? I don't want to kill him.. It just slipped out. Ugh, I need something to eat now, or else I'm gonna go insane...

***Meanwhile***

Kill me.

Mello.

He really said he would kill me.

And he meant it too.

Burying my face in my hands I whined out, "How the hell did I get mixed up in all this...?" This was all that stupid blonde's fault. Yes, he caused this. If he just let me go I could home and play Black Wars for almost the entire night then go to bed and four in the morning as usual. Something hit me.

"How the hell am I supposed to get my stuff from my house? !" I yelled at nobody, sitting up straighter. Sighing tiredly, I thought about my options: There's always Light but he doesn't like Mello and if I told him why I needed to move all my stuff... that would certainly bring up some questions. Ryuzaki? No, he can't drive and wouldn't let me stay here with a bloody vampire. At least not without asking why I had to. Misa? Well, that's possible. She can drive and she's pretty dumb so maybe if I trick her and tell I'm lending some things to Mello... Yeah, that might just work.

Opening up my phone I dialed Misa's phone number and hit SEND. A few seconds later she answered, "Hi Matty! What's up? You usually never call."

She's so damn peppy, I thought absently. "Hey. I'm at Mello's house and I'm lending him some things from my house but I can't drive and Light's busy. Mello is also out at the moment so I don't have any way to get to my house. Can you give me a ride there and back?"

Misa sighed annoyingly and said, "Fine. But I'm only doing this for you. What's his address?"

"I'll text it to you. Okay?"

"Ok." And with that, Misa hung up.

Clasping my hands together and holding them up to the ceiling I murmured out loud, "Oh thank you for letting Misa be so dumb..." I said happily. Get back to earth, dumbass! "Right, address, address..." I stood up and skimmed around the house in case Mello had his address written anywhere. Finally when I looked outside I was able to get the street name and text it to Misa. A few minutes later, Misa's car pulled up outside so I walked out. I waved to her and said, "Hi Misa! Thanks again."

Misa was just getting out so she could hear me. "No problem. Now get in, I can't stay long."

"Why?"

"Because I have a date with Light later," she said smiling and sitting back down in her car.

Shrugging, I got into her black little car and buckled myself in. Misa chattered on and on about some things mostly pertaining to Light or school. A few times she would say something mean about Mello or this girl she doesn't like Takada. From what I understand Misa and Takada have been going at it for awhile now to see who gets Light's affection but I really didn't care. Light doesn't seem to like either of those girls anyway. Thats what made the whole dumb.

"We're here! Hurry up Matty!" Misa's voice rang through my heads as I snapped out of a daze. Here we were, at my old home. Somehow it seemed kinda foreign to me... weird, right?

I stepped out of the car and said to Misa, "I'll be back in a little bit."

"Kay!"

Fumbling with the keys I opened the door and looked around my house. Same gray walls, same brown carpet, and the same nest of games surrounding my TV. Guess I'll start there, I thought looking around for a box. Somewhere in my garage I found one and began to place my games into the box. Once that was done I focused on moving my game systems and wires along with it. It might've taken awhile since I had to unplug them all from the TV, and I said I would be right back to Misa... Games are more important.

Then again... I gulped nervously at my next thought. If I'm not back there soon Mello's gonna literally kill me...

After that I started picking up my vital things and placing them into boxes. I tried to make it look like there wasn't much so I could fit some things into two boxes... Great, I gotta leave things behind. Maybe once Mello gets back (and I'm alive) he can drive me here and I could collect the rest of my things... yeah I guess that'll work for now. I hope.

**Later**

Closing the car door as best as I could with my hands full, I said bye to misa and she drove away. Now all that's me for me to do is hope that I won't be killed...

I somehow got the door open and plunked the boxes down in the hallway. "Ugh.. I'm home Mello!" I yelled out absently, hoping he was here and not in a killing mood. Something must've lifted off me when I saw him crashed out on the sofa, flipping through TV channels. Thank god.. I'm not gonna die... I thought gratefully.

Mello glanced over at me then went back to the TV "Took you awhile."

"Uh.. Sorry?"

Mello shrugged and said, "Whatever. I think I went a little overboard too."

This confused me. "Huh?" I said murmured, tipping my head to the side and kicking my boxes over to the Tv.

"Nothing. Just had my dinner and probably.. Took too long eating."

It took me a moment to realize what he meant but when I did I practically shouted, "You killed someone? !"

Mello snapped at me, "No! I saw some drunk guy wandering around and deciding to pick off him until he passed out. I used to kill people but I don't anymore, got it?"

Pausing for a moment, I asked him, "So... I'm not gonna die living here? And your really not gonna kill me?"

Mello didn't say much, but the tone of voice he used was softer, "Matt, as long as you're here I won't harm you. What I said earlier... I didn't mean it."

"So... you lied?"

The blonde nodded after a long pause. "Yeah. I lied."
