Chapter V

Yay! Mello's finally awake :3----------------------------------------------

I woke up late that day, the alarm read 5:22pm.

"Damn, I won't be able to sleep tonight" I groaned as I sat up out of bed.

I turn my head to find Mello sleeping in his bed on the other side of the room. He looked so peaceful.

I got up and sat on the side of his bed, I ran my fingers through his blonde hair.

I really am head-over-heels for him aren't I?

I got up and made my way to the kitchen, I was never good at cooking so I never made breakfast, so after looking around for a bit, I felt a sudden sweet tooth and opened the fridge to retrieve one of Mello's chocolate bars.

I went and lied down on the couch with my laptop and chocolate bar in hand.

Matt was nowhere to be seen, so he must have went out earlier.

As soon as I logged on, I opened a few separate documents and began scrolling through for information, looking for leads on the Kira case.

About half an hour later of being on the laptop, i felt a pair of arms wrap around my shoulders and a chin rest on top of my head.

"(y/n)... why are you eating my one of my chocolate bars?" he asked with a little irritation in his tone.

"Morning to you too Mells" I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever... So what are you doing?" He asked.

"Not much, just looking into the Kira case" I said.

"Found anything?" He asked.

"No not really, but Near's been sending me some information regarding the case, but he hasn't told me anything crucial enough for me to start interrogating anyone."

I turn my head to catch Mello blushing.

From that look, I can tell he wasn't listening. I pouted annoyingly.

"Are you even listening?" I asked slightly irked.

"Y-yeah, why wouldn't I be?" He stuttered still blushing.

The blush was so adorable, it wasn't normal to see someone like Mello get all flustered like this.

"Are you blushing Mells? That's so adorable" I teased the blonde.

"N-no... I-I just not feeling well, that's all" he once again stuttered.

"Aww, do you want me to be your sexy nurse?" I teased.

"W-what?! Hell no!" He shouted surprised by my response, with an even deeper shade of red on his face.

"I'm just kidding" I chuckled.

"Whatever" Mello groaned and walked into the kitchen to fetch a chocolate bar.

He noticed the dusk light shining through the window, he seemed puzzled.

"How long was I asleep for?" He asked me.

"Quite a while, you almost slept the whole day, you should eat something" I suggested while shutting the lid of the laptop.

"Like what?" He said in a sassy tone.

"I don't know. I think there's still a few packets of ramen in the pantry" I pointed out.

"You expect me to live off ramen? That's all you've been buying lately!" He irked.

"I don't know how to cook so deal with it" I responded rather coldly.

"Are you gonna eat or not?" I asked.

"Maybe later" he said walking over to the balcony door and opening it.

I set the laptop back on the couch and got up to follow the blonde.

He left the door open so I walked out onto the balcony and closed the door behind me so I didn't waste the air conditioning.

Mello leaned against the railing and looked out onto the horizon, his mind deep in thought.

"Hey Mells, something on your mind?" I asked.

He seemed to snap back to reality, but shrugged it off.

"No... It's nothing" he said dazed.

The both of us looked out into the sunset, it was very beautiful today.

This was the perfect chance.

The perfect time to confess.

"Mello, What I wanted to tell you yesterday..." I said, getting his attention.

"Yeah, what is it?" His voice was soft.

"Mello... I..."

I suddenly froze up, unable to get the three words out.

I began to panic, my heart started beating faster and I was finding it difficult to breath. I couldn't take it.

"Never mind, it's nothing important" I said quickly and went back inside. Shutting the door behind me.

Mello looked confused of my sudden leave but didn't think much of it.

I went back into my room and stuffed my head into my pillow. Crying my eyes out.

"I can't believe I humiliated myself like that!" I cursed out to nobody in particular.

"Why can't I do it?" I sobbed to myself.

"Why can't I say three simple words?"
