Mello, Matt and me.

Chapter 7: getting naked and playing with guns

A/N: This chapter took a bit longer, because I didn't reeeally know how to write it, so anyways here you go. (picture below by me)

___________________________________________________________

As I woke up the next day, Matt was still asleep. Mello already left the bed. I looked on my watch. It was only 8 o'clock in the morning. I stood up, taking care to not wake Matt up and I went outside to see if Mello already left. He didn't: He was sitting on the bench and making a fire.

"Morning blondie" I said while sitting next to him.

"Morning, why are you already awake? It's only eight o'clock." He answered.

"I usually get up earlier, eight is already late to me."

"You sure? Yesterday you slept like a rock." He chuckled.

"We went to bed at midnight. And you snorted like a pig" I said,smiling.

"Haha very funny. Could you get me some eggs? I forgot them inside."

"Whatever your majesty wants" I said and went back inside to get the eggs.

As I went back outside, Mello was gone. He probably went to the forest to get something. He came out of the woods with a wet pan in his hands.

"Ah, thank you for the eggs." He said while he took a wooden-spoon out of his backpocket.

"Did you make this thing by yourself?" I asked pointing at the piece of wood.

"Yep I did." He answered while rubbing the pan on the grass.

"Let me do that." I said and took the pan from his hands. I dried it with my shirt while Mello looked at me.

"Than kyou..." He said and put it on the "Grill" he made out of a piece of rubble.

"Why do you never smile properly?" I asked.

"Because life gave me no reason to." He answered without looking at me.

"Well, now you do have reasons to smile so just freakin' do it."

"What are those reasons?"

"Come on, you're free, you have a great life with your... oh... I understand."

"What?"

"It'sbecause of me isn't it? You wanted to have a great life with Matt and then I just showed up and dest-"

BANG.

"What the hell Mello!!?" I screamed, holding my hurting cheek.

"Stop talking shit like that!!" He yelled at me. "Since you're here my life became better! Finally, someone cares about me! I'm happy that you're here even if I don't show it! If you weren't here, life would be boring only with Matt! So stop talking shit about yourself or I'll keep slapping you!"

I didn't know what to say. Why did he have to be that aggressive? But still, it gave him a kinda sweet side.

"Tell me." I said. "Tell me why you don't smile Mello. It makes me sad to see you like that."

Mello looked on the floor and sighed.

"I don't wanna talk about it at the moment." He said.

"Will you ever?" I asked.

My question left him silent. Then he finally said "I don't know, maybe" while breaking the eggs inside the pan.

I didn't say anything either and just silently ate the finished eggs Mello gave me.
