Our Chocolate Romance - Mello x Reader (Death Note Fanfiction)

And The Truth Shall Set You Free

~Near's POV~

I sighed and stared down at my shoes. There was no turning back now, and the two other people in the room with me knew that. "Okay, boys, here's our plan," Gevanni said, and I held my breath. "I'm gonna dump the... fluid... down somewhere else in England. I'll add other DNA to it so that we don't get traced."

Lawliet looked as sick as I felt. His face was pale and he was sweating profusely. "And... what about us?" He managed, and I stretched my arms above my head.

"We're gonna stay here, I'll tell Roger, and we're going to live life as usual. Hikaru got exactly what he deserved." I said, "Besides, Gevanni was in the SPK and I'm L's successor. I can pull strings if I have to."

"Is Roger gonna be okay with this? I mean, it's not just a fight. We killed him."

"I killed him," I corrected, "And Roger's going to be fine. We're family, remember?"

"What's gonna happen if we are found out?"

"Like Near said," Gevanni piped in, "He's L's successor, and I'm ex-SPK. Hell, you're mafia blood, too. We're untouchable, kid."

Nice save, babe.

"Now, tomorrow, we move. I've gone ahead and dissolved the remains, so all I have left to do is dilute the acid and dump it while Near tells Roger."

"O-okay," Lawliet agreed.

"I promised your mother that I'd protect you, okay? I'm not going back on that, so don't worry. Everything's gonna be okay." I assured, hugging him.

Right? Everything's gonna be okay...

Gevanni shot me a worried look and I could feel my eyes sting, but I fought the tears, because I had to be strong. For Gevanni, for Lawliet, for myself.

Everything's gonna be okay...

~{Y/N}'s POV~

"{Y/N}," B said after a while, "If A's on his way, we need to move fast."

I looked at his face, which looked as petrified as possible, and sighed, "B, we can't go anywhere. We don't have a Shinigami."

"No,{Y/N}, you don't understand. He's going to kill us."

"We're already dead," I stressed.

"{Y/N}, we can still disappear." He exclaimed, "We can still die, again! Shinigami can die, and turn to dust. So can we!"

I looked at him in surprise, "What..?"

"I never told you because I thought we'd be safe. But... we can disappear. Right now, we're somewhat similar to the Shinigami. We're like ghosts, like souls. But just like them, we can die, too. This time... forever."

Mello and Matt, who were silent until now, chirped in. "What?!"

"Shinigami die when they save someone they love from being killed. But we're different. It's the same as on Earth. Anything goes."

"But... we can't get sick up here. We're like immortals up here!" Mello protested.

"It's similar to vampires. We can't really die form old age or sicknesses. We don't grow. But getting stabbed, for example, can turn us to dust."

"Jesus Chirst," Matt groaned, "What is this bullshit universe we live in? Who the fuck came up with this concept? It's like a fanfiction at this point!"

"Matt, this is serious!" I scolded, "If L and Light don't come back soon with Ryuk, and A gets here first, we're screwed!"
