She Should've Removed It

(Mello POV)

August 2nd, 2010

Mello is sitting on his couch leaning against the arm with one of his legs up in a triangle. He's propping himself up with his elbow and thinking deeply. Matt is sitting on a chair besides Mello, switching the TV channels.

This girl has to be with Yagami, he thinks. There's no way she isn't. That would lead only Yagami to being Kira. But how do I prove this before Near does?

"Matt," Mello calls out.

"Hm?" Matt replies.

"You got her address yet?"

"Yeah. Found it a week ago."

"A wee— Why haven't you told me since dumbass?!" Mello shouted.

Matt shrugs. "You didn't ask."

Mello scoffs and rolls his eyes. "Whatever. Just send it to me."

Mat looks towards Mello. "Why?"

"Because I need it. I have to investigate the house to get more information on her."

Matt stares at Mello for a moment and then looks back at the TV. "I managed to get her schedule. Her next photo shoot'll be in three days."

"Three days? Nothing earlier?"

Matt puts his hand on his chin. "I also overheard her talking about a date with Yagami today."

Bingo. "I'll go this evening."

"Hm. Better not have another Linder incident," Matt teases.

"Shut up!" Mello barks.

"You ever wished she dropped that towel?"

"Never. I don't see women like that. That's disgusting." he scowls.

"Gee. You're so boring."

"No. You're just perverted."

Mello stands up and starts walking towards his room upstairs. "I'm gonna get ready. I'll leave in half an hour."

"Don't forget your phone," Matt reminds.

"I won't."

Mello was already in her house. He called Matt to make sure the coast was clear.

"Yeah...I don't see anyone in the house. Think you can go in," Matt said.

Mello slowly opened the door, shocked to see it was unlocked. He silently closed it and marshmallow-walked around the house. His plan was to search the house in case Yagami left any instructions for Tadomi regarding the Death Note or Kira case. He needed a way to get concrete evidence against Yagami. If he couldn't find any notes or letters, he would take her phone and hack it.

Where the fuck is her room? Mello thinks to himself.

He hides his shoes in the closet next to her door and walks up the cushioned stairs. The house was silent. Eventually, he found her room with the door opened. 

If she's not home, why the hell is everything open?

Mello cautiously looks around and enters her room. The room is large in size. Her walls have photos of her modeling poses and a few of her and Light. Mello tsked at the couple photos. 

Mello looked away as soon as he caught himself gazing for too long. What the hell am I doing staring at her photos?

He was about to start searching when he heard footsteps coming upstairs.
