Yesterday is the greatest day I've ever known

The sky was as blue as Mello's eyes

"Look at this, Mello," Matt waved at him from his spot on his back, his face tilted to the clouds. "It looks like a Tetris piece."

Mello looked up from the book in his lap and let Matt drag him down onto the ground beside him.

"Do you see it?" Matt whispered, a grin underlining his words. And Mello blinked, searching for what Matt saw but finding nothing.

"No," He replied honestly and Matt laughed out loud, making harmony with the birds' songs.

and the canaries in the trees as yellow as his hair.

"That's okay," Matt said, tilting his head so it rested on Mello's shoulders even though it didn't need its support. Matt didn't need anything; he just wanted a lot of things.

"Are you sure?" Mello asked, his brows furrowing together as he glanced at the top of Matt's head, so warm against his cheek.

"No," Matt said, lifting his head and staring at Mello. "I'm never sure about anything when I'm with you and I'm sure about that."

His hand found Mello's and he weaved their fingers together, holding him down to earth so he wouldn't float away.

The grass was as green as Matt's eyes

"I'm never going to let you go," Matt proclaimed, a smile playing on his lips so it made it seem like a joke but Mello would be a fool to think that.

"But what if I die?" Mello asked, his tone as light as sunshine but they both knew that it was inevitable and Matt wasn't an idiot.

"I'll die, too, then," And this time, there were no smiles or tones as light as sunshine because it was only the truth.

and the blood as red as his hair.
