Yo! It's me, Kyoko Sakuma! I'm back from the dead (for now). I've been addicted to MattxMello lately: fluff and smut. I decided to write my own little MattxMello fluff.

I am a nerdy broke teenager in the middle of nowhere, East coast. One can assume I do not own Death Note (though I'd like to own L, Mello, and Matt in that order).

Anywho, enjoy! :-)

(By the way, Ny-chan says hi.)

Mello stomped into his room and slammed the door.

"Dammit…" he muttered, ripping his test paper in half.

Matt popped up from behind his bed. "You know, if Roger hears you say that, you'll be in trouble for weeks." He flashed Mello a cheeky grin.

"What are you doing in here?" Mello asked, shocked at his friend's sudden appearance.

"Never mind that," Matt replied, dodging Mello's question. "What's that?"

Mello glared at him menacingly. "The last test we had. I studied all week and Near still cleared my score by six points." He sat on the edge of his bed and patted the area next to him, inviting Matt to join him. Matt silently accepted the invitation.

Matt was five years old when he met Mello. He had been happily playing an electronic game when he spotted the blonde sitting alone in a dark corner of the room and staring at the floor. Matt knew at once that he had never seen him before because he would have definitely remembered someone so beautiful. Before he knew what he was doing, he'd crossed the room.

"Hello," Matt said quietly. He gave a shy little wave with a smile.

The blonde slowly looked up. "Hello," he replied. Matt's breath hitched. The boy was even more beautiful close-up.

"My name is Matt. What's yours?"

"Mello."

Nine years later, he still remembered that moment like it was yesterday. As Mello sat fuming next to him, he turned to face those blue eyes. "Mello."

"Hm?" Mello's face was inches from his.

Matt quickly leaned forward and pressed his lips to his friend's. He wasn't surprised when Mello pulled away. He was surprised when Mello returned the kiss. It was a quick, chaste kiss, but it was a kiss, nonetheless.

They sat in silence, both teens blushing furiously.

Mello was the first to break the tense quiet that had settled. "Matt, I like you."

"Just 'like' me, Mello?" Matt grinned. "That's too bad," he continued, "Because I love you."

Mello pulled Matt into an embrace. He held him close to his body and Matt could feel his body heat radiating out against him. Matt hugged Mello back and whispered, "Mello…"

"Yes?"

Matt smiled.

"You'll always be number one to me."

So… love it? Hate it? Review, pretty please! :-) Yeah, I know it was short. Ny-chan waves before falling asleep on my bed. Eh-heh… Ny-chan… I'm going to need to use that in a sec… (It is currently 12:08 am Eastern Time, Friday, April 25th, 2008. See ya.)
