ThirteenThings(A MattxMello FanFiction)

Chapter 2

We arrive at Rogers office and untangle our arms.

"Boys as you know L has chosen all of you as his successors, I want you to get along, Matt and Mello I know you get along, but it has come to my attention you and Near don't get along." He says.

"That is correct, it has also come to my attention that Matt and Mello are quite romantic at times and it is a nuisance to Wammy's ." Near says. I bawl my fist at him.

"Mello! Near that is their business not yours." Roger says.

"You wonder why we don't get along try getting along with that," I say motioning to Near.

"I have an idea, you all are gonna be in the same room for two days and learn to get along, no toys, no video games, and no chocolate. Just you three." He says.

"What about food?" Matt asks.

"And food," Roger says.

"What about water?" I ask. Roger sighs.

"And water" he says.

"What about sleeping bags?" Matt asks.

"Yes you will have sleeping bags," he looks from me to Matt. "Three of them."

"We're thirteen," I say. Its not like anything would happen if we slept in the same sleeping bag. If one of us has a bad dream we sleep together, but in a friendly way.

"Right, how about tomorrow at noon you will start?" He says.

"What room will it be in?" Near asks.

"The one right out there," he points to the open door. "So I can monitor you and tell if Mello has another gun." He glares at me. I look down and Matt puts his arm around me. I lean into the embrace.

"Okay off to your rooms," he ushers us off. We walk down the hall to our room. It used to be just my room but Matt moved in with me when we were ten, Roger reporposed Matt's room at a storage room.

"Great, I have to be stuck in a room with Near." I say plopping on my bed. Matt sits next to me.

"Well at least I'll be there, then maybe Near will...survive," Matt says.

"Ya I guess I won't be as aggressive. It's probably everyone's best interest that I stay calm" I say.

"Probably yeah" Matt laughs. He stares off into space for a few seconds.

"I'll be back," Matt says and walks out of the room. I wait for a few minutes and decide to do my school work. I give up after fifteen minutes. I sigh and pick up a book. I read through it not really paying attention. After about an hour I end up throwing it across the room. I look through my stuff and find a nerf gun. I start shooting at the door to the bathroom. I retrieve the bullets and climb under my bed Im talking to no one but pretend I'm on the radio to someone.

"Yeah target is in range," I say to my self. "Move out," I roll from under and start shooting at a pillow.

"Mello?" Matt asks walking in on me shooting an inanimate object.

"Hey," I says and continue to shoot the pillow. He laughs and walks to his bed reaching under the pillow and pulling out another nerf gun. He crouches next to me and kisses my cheek. He starts shooting the pillow.

"I think we got him." He laughs at all the bullets sitting in front of the pillow.

"Good work Mafia," I say and stand up.

"Mafia?" Matt raises an eyebrow.

"I think I could be in the Mafia," I say.

"Hmm does killing people for a living sound like something Mello would do? Yeah I could see that." Matt laughs standing.

"Would you help me if I was In The Mafia?" I ask setting my nerf gun next to the pillow.

"With what?" He asks setting his bag on his bed.

"I don't know... Kidnapping someone or like monitoring the victim or something." I reply sitting on the floor.

"Sure if you join the Mafia I will help you." He says sitting next to me.

"Why were you gone so long?" I ask.

"Being a sneaky spy and got you this," he says grabbing the bag and pulling out a silver wrapped rectangle. He then unwraps it and hands me a chocolate bar.
