In the Meantime. (MattXOC Death Note Fanfic)

Christmas Present

     "Merry Christmas!" Guess said merrily as Matt came in.
     "Merry Christmas!" he replied. Guess got up from her seat and faced him. They embraced and shared a loving kiss. It was their second Christmas together in Wammy's House and Guess had decided something.
     "Remind me to ask you something in a minute?" Matt nodded. Guess pulled away from him and pulled a small box from underneath her desk and handed it to him. "Hope you like it!" She kissed him on the cheek.
     "Thanks, Guess!" he said as he sat down on her bed to start ripping off the wrapping paper. "No... way..." he whispered in disbelief as he began to see the box. Guess smirked and he ripped off the rest of the paper even quicker. Now clear to see was the packaging for a PSP, with a brand new PSP inside. "NO WAY!" Matt cried in joy as he held the small game console in his hands. He put it back into the box to keep it safe and wrapped his arms around her. "Thank you so much!"
     "I'm glad you liked it!" she laughed returning the hug.
     "I will be one second." Matt jumped up from her bed and ran back into the room with a box covered in red wrapping paper. Guess crawled to the top of the bed, resting her back on the wall whilst Matt sat on the side, dangling his legs off the edge of the bed. Matt handed her the gift as he sat beside her; he gave her a peck on the cheek. "Merry Christmas, babe."
     "Thank you!" She began to open the gift. "Mr Box... You're lying to me..." She ripped the last parts of the wrapping paper and held the box set for Pokemon: Advanced Challenge. She put the box down on the pillow beside her and launched herself on top of Matt, knocking him over as he laughed. "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!" 
     "You're welcome!" He continued to laugh. Guess lifted herself off Matt on her hands and knees above him; hands either side of his head, his legs passing under the bridge of her body still dangling off the edge of the bed. "What did you want to ask me earlier?" he asked from beneath her.
     Guess blushed, her eyes quickly scanning his body beneath her without him noticing. "At about... 9, would you mind chilling in your room until 11? Then coming back here?" 
     "Sure, mind if I ask why?" 
     "You'll find out at 11."
     "The cliff hangers!" Matt joked.

     The day went on as normal, they went and ate together and Matt left to his room at 9. Closing the door behind her, Guess leant against it taking a deep breath. "Yuri, you don't have to do this..." she spoke to herself, "I know... but I want to..." She took a sharp breath in and held her stomach. "Damn butterflies."

     Matt checked his clock for what felt like the 100th time, the 2 hours he waited seemed to drag on for much longer. It was 10:56pm. He saved his game on his new PSP and ran his fingers through his hair. "I wonder..." he thought aloud, "No... no, it couldn't be... Could it? Just don't expect, Mail. Don't expect..." With that, he left his room and made his way across the corridor to Guess's room and knocked lightly on the door, hoping to not wake up any of the younger children in Wammy's House.
      "Matt?" she asked.
      "Yup."
      "Come in!" she chirped. As he entered the room nothing had really changed; Guess sat in the very centre of her bed smiling. Her cheeks were dusted a constant baby pink colour. "Could you lock the door?" 
      Matt locked the door, "You wanted to talk about something or..?"
      In response, Guess shuffled slightly to the edge of the bed and tapped the space beside her. Matt took the invitation and sat next to her. Guess held her ankles, looking down at her lap. She sighed, "I thought I had planned on what to say in the past two hours, but nothing comes to me..." after a moment, her hand shot to her stomach.
      "You okay?" Matt asked, concerned.
      Guess smirked to herself. "Yeah..." She sighed frustratedly. "Come on, Yuri," she said looking away.
     "What is it?"
     Guess looked over at Matt. She flipped herself over on top of him, hands either side of his head again, only her legs were forced apart by his being in the way. "I, uh, got you another Christmas present," she began, "but you decide on whether you want to accept it." Leaning down, she kissed his lips lovingly. Matt ran his tongue over her bottom lip requesting entrance to which Guess quickly obliged; their tongues fighting for dominance; Matt won, exploring her mouth. Guess pulled away for air looking down at the only one she loved. "I've been thinking about this for a while now and..." The constant blush became deeper and so she hid her face in his shoulder. He weaved his fingers through her soft hair and his other hand stroked her arm gently beside his head. "I love you more than anything else in the whole world, nor do I believe it is possible to; and I want to show you that by... giving you something I can only give once." 
     Matt's eyes widened. "Guess..."
     "You don't have to if you don't want to," she said quietly, pulling away from his shoulder and avoiding his gaze. 
     "Are you sure you want to do this?" She forced herself to meet his gaze, nodding. "Do you have... protection?" She nodded again. "Then... as long as you want to..." Matt began to pull his lock-sided smile that she adored.
