Chapter 2 of care
Reader's point of view

I grabbed my purse and Matt's keys and headed out the door. I was mentally making a list of foods to get. I heard that protein was good for burns or something. Either way, even of it doesn't help the burns it should help his health. I got in the car and turned the key in the ignition. The engine roared to life and I drove off. I started messing with the radio, knowing Matt would kill me for changing his station but I didn't really care. I changed the station till I found something I liked. Shinedown's 'Devour' came on. I smiled and kept driving, while singing along.

"Take it, and take it, and take it, and take it all.
Take it and take it and take it until you take us all. Smash it and crash it and thrash it and trash it you know they're only toys. Try it you'll like, it don't hide it, don't fight it, just let it out. Steal and shoot it and kill it, or take another route. Take it, and take it, and take it you know they're only toys." I belted out. I parked the car in the parking lot and got out and walked in the store. I grabbed a basket and headed for the meats section. I began looking for some fish when I got the feeling I was being watching. I looked over my shoulder and saw two men talking to each other. I could tell it was about me, they kept looking at me. They noticed me looking and one of them wolf whistled.

I glared at the and rolled my eyes. 'Ugh, perverts' I thought as I grabbed the fish and walked away. I could hear them calling out to me from the distance, but I just kept on walking. I had shopping to do. I went to the eggs and grabbed some, my mind had drifted to Mello. 'I hope he'll be okay, I mean after all how would anyone feel if someone they loved got hurt and nearly died.' I thought. Than it hit me, what I just had thought. I stopped the cart and realized what I had just admitted to. I loved Mello. I felt an arm around my shoulder that snapped me out of my thoughts. I looked up and saw one of the men that was staring at me in the meat section.

He smirked and said "hey baby, you need help shopping? Perhaps someone strong like me to carry your things for you?" I chuckled before I spoke "that's very sweet of you, but I'm sorry I'm not into disrespectful men. I have a REAL man at home." I turned and walked away, leaving him lost for words. 'I at least hope he'll be my man, but I want to tell him. But how would I? I mean this is Mello' I thought as I went for the chocolate to get Mello something that he'll probably want, no WILL want later. I picked up at least 15 chocolate bars. 'I'll just get him 15 to last him for a while' I thought. I than walked towards the vegetables. I picked up lettuce, tomatoes, Onions, and black olives. I was still thinking of a way to tell Mello I love him. 'Maybe I could just make it simple, like hey I love you. No, than I might sound like I just don't care a lot or something' I thought as I sighed.

I than walked to the dairy section and grabbed some cheese. Just than my phone went off I picked it up to look at it. It was Matt. "Hey, Mello's now fully taken care of, but I need to monitor the cameras. I can't watch him and monitor at the same time. Think you could stay up and watch him. He's running a fever and its best for one of us to keep an eye on him. Also could you pick up potato chips and a drink for me?" I read out loud. I replied 'yea, any flavor in mind?' I waited for a response as I started walking to the chips. 'Maybe some barbecue, and classic, and sour cream and onion. And just a mountain dew.' I smiled to myself. And picked up the chips and thought 'Matt, you chip loving bastard'

I walked to the check out and grabbed a mountain dew for Matt and a monster, plus a couple of cans of red bull for me, and a protein shake for Mello. The cashier smiled at me and said "find everything okay?" I returned the smile and said "yeah, thanks." She rung it all up and put it in bags and I was out the door.
I loaded the stuff in the car and got in the front seat and drove off.

I was driving faster than usual. I just wanted to see Mello. 'Maybe Matt could help me with this. I know going to him may not be the best thing in the world, but he's known Mello longer. Besides, who else am I going to talk to?' I thought. I pulled up into the drive way and got out with the food. I opened the door and sat the keys on the table. Matt looked up from the screens and said "hey, welcome back." I didn't make eye contact with him and just muttered out a hi. "What's up? You seem down" he said. "Nothing, just thinking." I said making my way to the kitchen. He got up and followed and said "about? Come on tell me" he smiled brightly. I sighed as I sat the bag down and looked at him. "Its Mello, I think I......" I trailed off as I started to begin cooking and tossed him his chips. "You what?"

He said raising an eyebrow. "I.....I think I love Mello" I said softly. I heard a small gasp from him. After a long silence he spoke up. "How are you gonna tell him?" Matt asked. "I don't know, that's what I wanted to ask you. Shouldn't you be watching the screens?" I asked. "Misa is sleeping, I doubt she'll be waking up soon." Matt replied. I took a gulp of my monster and continued cooking. Matt cleared his throat "Anyways, in all honesty. I don't know how to answer that. I've known Mello for a long ass time. Ever since we were kids, the guy is like my brother. But, I don't know how you could tell him that. I've never really heard him talk about women. I know he's not gay so," Matt paused.

"Not even once?" I asked while getting the salad ready. "Nope, I have seen the way he looks at some women though. So I know he's interested in women. He just doesn't talk about them. I do know he slept with some of the women Rod brought in when he was in the mafia." Matt said. "Okay too much info Mattie" I said smiling. "What? Don't wanna hear what I have to say, just because YOU haven't slept with anyone?" Matt said raising his eyebrows and smirking. I gasped and punched him in the arm

"Ow!" Matt said rubbing his arm. "That's what you get!" I said finishing the food. He laughed as he walked out, but not before grabbing his drink. I put the food on a plate and took it into the bedroom. I sat I down on a table besides the bed and went back to the kitchen to get the chocolate and my monster. I came back in the room and sat the chocolate on the table and sat back in a recliner and start drinking my drink. I looked at the clock.

It was 12:30. I sighed knowing this would take a while. But at least it gave me time to think of what I had to say to Mello. I looked over at him. His chest was moving up and down slowly. I got up and walked over to him and put my ear up to his chest. I heard his hart beat at a steady past. Not too slow. Not too fast. I took the rag off his forehead and dipped it in the water bucket besideds the bed and rung it out before placing it back on Mello's forehead. I moved his hair out of his face. I just stood there, admiring him and lost in thought. I than sighed and walked back to the chair and sat down. Now I have to do two things. Not fall asleep. And think of how to tell Mello I love him. Not too hard right?
