Hello!

It's been a while, but I CAN EXPLAIN! You see, I went camping, then my friend gave me her cold (if you wanna know why I get sick so often, it's because I have a weak immune system) and I'm still getting over that and ALSO I visited some of my family not that long ago.

Now...to the comments!

italyPASTA13: Yeah, it was a little, there's a little bit of everything in this plot I guess xD Oh that's okay! I'm glad you got your internet back up! :) Thank you for reviewing!

DarkAngelJudas: Ikr? It is adorable, but let's not forget the main couple at hand here! MelloxNear! *looks off into sunset dramatically* One day...they shall be together! Forever! *has fangirl spazm and dies*

That's all I gotta say up here for now, make sure to check out Mello, Matt and Nears antics at the end of the chapter! I have some important news for you ;)

Read it, comment and most of all LOVE IT!

It had been over a year since Near set off to find Mello, but Near was quickly losing motivation, with his mind on the Kira case and many others, Near couldn't find time and also he thought it better for the both of them, if he just…

Left it alone.

Said blonde, was currently working in the mafia, what had been running through his mind the day he left, he even couldn't understand, all he did understand was that, L, was dead and because of this factor, his rivalry he held with Near could never be stopped, even in saying that, the feelings he had for Near, could never be broken.

He sighed as he watched his men drop dead around him, he never thought that Kira would go this far. He snapped off another piece of his chocolate and then stood up to the sound of doors being kicked down, running up the stairs, he ordered the two men who were still downstairs to retrieve the death note and follow him.

"O-okay!" They yelled in agreement as Mello disappeared, having no doubt in his mind that they would die.

Oh well.

He would retrieve the death note again anyway, and as if on cue, chief Yagami came running into the room, death note in hand. Mello ran his thumb over the explosive device remote and greeted him, "Hello inspector Yagami." He said, he felt a thrill doing this, now thinking about it, he had been so out of character when he was around Near, it was same both ways…maybe it was better like this.

"Mello, make any movements and I will kill you." The chief threatened holding up a pen to the paper.

Mello nearly scoffed until he heard Yagami whisper his real name, "Wha-?" He turned to him, but quickly recollected himself.

"Believe me, chief, I never had any intention to kill you and I am sorry." He murmured, before a supposedly 'dead' mafia member shot the chief repeatedly in the back, before leaping on him and attempting to rip the note book away from him.

It was at just that moment that Matsuda shot him away from their chief, "It's over Mello."

Mello, smirked and replaced his mask, before clicking the small device in his hand.

*BOOM BOOM BOOM*

The sounds of explosives blowing up filled the air as Mello got thrown to the side, he clenched the side of his face, biting his lip to stop himself from screaming in agony, it was so painful and he couldn't see anything from his left eye.

"Need a hand?" A familiar voice said, as a gloved hand held itself out to Mello.

"Matt?"

"So you still remember me? What about Near?"

"Just shut the fuck up and get me out of here." He ordered, as Matt heaved him around his shoulders.

"Aye Sir." He said, before casually walking out of the building as it crumbled into nothing behind him.

"So…how did you find me?" Mello asked, lying down on Matts couch, in Matts apartment…god this felt weird to him.

Matt came back from the bathroom with lots of bandages and patches and medical stuff, smiling a little, "Oh a little bird told me." He said in a sing song voice.

"I was being serious."

"And so was I."

"Maaaatt." Mello whined before flinching away and punching him as he put something that stung him on his eye.

"Still as feisty as ever, I see," Matt noted as he held Mello down this time, "Sorry Mells, but you're gonna have to put up with the pain."

"Aaahhhh fuck you." Mello groaned in pain, as Matt gently dabbed the blood away from his eye.

"This is gonna scar…really badly." Matt informed him.

"Since when did you have a medical degree?" Mello asked, sarcastically.

"I see you don't need my help then." Matt said, slowly removing his hand from Mellos face.

"Sorry, I didn't mean it that way, you win." Mello mumbled, letting Matt lean back over him again so he could fix the injury.

"Nears losing motivation."

"Already? Who would have known he would give up on the Kira case that qui-…"

"No, he's losing motivation to search for you, Mello."

"Huh?" It seemed like the room had frozen in Mellos eyes, or rather, eye, he had no idea that Near had been searching for him, his heart rate slowly began to increase, but the it dropped as he realised what Matt had said.

"You never told him directly that you cared for him, so he's beginning to lose sight of the point in all this, Mello…" Matt grabbed Mellos chin and pulled his face so they were staring at each other eye to eye, "Do something about this, I can't just stand by and watch as you and Near fall back into your old routine!"

"Why do you care so much anyways?!" Mello nearly yelled, pushing Matt away from him and grabbing a bandage to wrap around his face.

"I know what you're trying to imply, but that feeling is gone Mello, you let it die with me the moment you stepped out of that hospital room." Matt admitted, going over to Mello when he felt it was safe, to help him with the bandage.

"I'm sorry." Mello whispered, as Matt ruffled his hair.

"It's okay, I think I've found someone else."

"Tell me about them." Mello said, driving them away from the topic of Near, or so he thought.

"He is fairly cold, but there's another side to him, he's genius and loves to play with darts, only he sucks," Matt chuckled a little, keeping up his act to lure Mello in.

Mello caught his breath at the word 'darts,' why? He knew someone who loved playing with toys and darts was his favourite, "His name?" Mello pressed, his voice croaking a little.

"Near, but that's not his real one." Matt smirked then, Mello had leapt up and pushed him against a wall.

"You…gah!" A look of realisation dawned on Mellos face, "You trapped me! Bitch! I cannot believe I fell for that!" He shrieked, letting go of Matts collar.

"Sorry, had to do that."

"Whatever."

"So does that mean you'll go after him now?"

"No."

"Oh my god…why Mello?!" Matt sighed.

"BECAUSE…because…be-cause…" Mello stamped his foot like a child, "Just because okay?"

"No, not okay Mello." Matt said, crossing his arms to join in with the childish act.

"I dunno Matty…" Mello finally caved, throwing himself onto his bed, "You can never know with Near, he reveals a part of himself that has feeling and then just like that it's gone."

"Poetic."

"You're not helping."

"I know, sorry."

"Maybe you should just go…visit him?" Matt suggested, smiling, he knew either way that Mello would.

Oh yeah, that bitch WILL go and visit Near.

"Once this is healed." Mello agreed, gesturing to his face.

"Oh yeah…about that, you may or may not want to see a doctor." Matt said, cautiously.

"What? WHY? What did you do Matt?!" Mello interrogated.

"Just don't look in a mirror," Matt warned before quickly dashing out the door with a, "Got to go now, bye!"

Walking over to a mirror, Mello screamed in horror as he took in what he now looked like, "MAAAATT!"

"Fuck that's my cue." Matt whispered to himself, running out of the apartment block, before Mello could catch him.
