Little Smirk

AN: I’m back…… with a new oneshot, as if it wasn’t obvious. Um. Yeah….. all I have to say is Bad Mello! (my beta didn’t even know I wrote this until she was on her lunch break today….)

~Little Smirk~

-If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Well then I've got a story to tell,
If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Then I guess you're going straight to hell!-


Matt managed to close the door with nothing more than a soft click despite all the bags that littered his arms. He wasn't sure if his blonde haired lover was sleeping or not, but he didn't want to face his wrath if he ended up being woken up.

Carefully depositing the bags on the counter he began to sift through them and put away all the groceries. Yes groceries. Matt had gone shopping for something other than cigarettes and games.

He and Mello had been living in that apartment for almost two years now after their miraculous escape of death. Two Kira free years. Mello had finally calmed down enough for them to stay in one place for longer than a few weeks.

It was pure bliss.

It didn't hurt that the two worked well together, and not just in the working sense.

He loved the blonde with everything he had, thus he went on the dreaded shopping trip. It thankfully hadn't taken as long as expected...

-Don't wanna leave you now or never,
Cause we're perfect together,
Never wanna be apart,
Dared to take on the simple life.-

Putting away the last of the things, except for a bar of Mello's favorite chocolate that he had picked up, he headed quietly out of the kitchen.

The bedroom door was left ajar and with the sounds coming from there either Mello was having a really good dream or he was jerking off.

Wouldn't be the first time he had caught the blonde doing that; which usually lead to something else...

The chocolate fell to the floor with a thud and Matt's goggle covered eyes widened.

-There was trouble for us when I came home early,
Never would expect to see this,
It's fair to say I could not believe my eyes,
You cracked a smile but had nothing to say,
So I made a list of how you're going to pay!-

Mello's head was thrown back as he moaned softly; his hips working to balance himself atop the smaller albino. Mello's skin was flushed and his muscles twitched under the strain of riding Near's cock.

Mello… Near...

Mello and Near having sex...

Matt's head was spinning in too many different directions at once.

The blonde had finally noticed his audience and turned to watch his lover as he stood in the doorway. Mello cracked a smirk but said nothing even as the pale hand slid along his thigh.

“At least I know for sure what you're going to hell for.” Matt managed to say before he backed out of the room and left the apartment again.

How could Mello have done that to him? So much for love. The redhead snorted in sarcastic mirth despite his tears. Apparently love really was overrated. And where did that leave him?

He'd had what he would call a perfect life and now, what? Mello was fucking Near behind his back. On their fucking bed. How long had that been going on?

Matt was way beyond mad, no, he was furious.

His phone rang. He ignored it. It rang three more times. He ignored them too. Finally Mello left a voice mail. Listening to it Matt scoffed.

Had he not caught them in the act, would he have just dismissed it as rumors? Would he have believed the drivel Mello was spouting in the message about it being one time and never again?

Well no more.

He may love the blonde but he wasn’t going to be walked on. He could take the attitude, the PMS Mello seemed to have, the insults and the orders… but this? No, revenge was a much more fitting action.

But first... he had to set the bait.

-I Locked you out,
Left you naked in the front yard,
Burned all of your clothes,
Having nothing can be really hard,
Now I'm on the run,
I'd do it all again,
So Catch me if you can,-

“It's alright Mels... I believe you. You know I’ll always forgive you...” Matt rolled his eyes at what he was forcing himself to say.

“Yeah, I’ll be home soon...”

Now, it was time to make a list......

-Cause, I took your car,
With your baby in the back seat,
Wrecked your credit card, you're in debt to a deadbeat,
Baby now you know how much it hurts,
When I caught you in the act wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!-

When he got home Mello was 'out' saying he'd be back after he let Matt have a little more time to cool off. Matt smirked. It suited his purposes just fine.

The locksmith was done fairly quickly and gave him a new set of keys and Matt happily dished out Mello's money to the guy. Why spend his own money when Mello left his laying around?

Matt closed the door and locking it behind him and went off to play a game, with his headphones on.

-Now I feel better,
But its hard to forget,
I never think of looking back,
Cause time has no meaning when your free,
This is what you get,
Karma bitch,-

Matt glanced at his phone and laughed quietly as Mello's thirty-fourth call was missed.

“Aww, can't get in can you?” perhaps he was enjoying this just a little too much, but Mello had started it. And now Matt was going to have some fun ending it.

-Now I see who you really are,
Cause happiness is the best revenge,
But caught red handed with a grin on your face,
Didn't think you'd be easy to replace!-

Matt slept soundly on the couch that night and woke up early. Mello was asleep in the hallway with his phone clutched in his hand. Matt almost felt bad, that was until he noticed the new hickey on the blonde’s neck.

“Mello, were you out here all night?” he asked in fake surprise. Blue eyes opened and narrowed in fury.

“I called you sixty-seven times. Sixty-seven! You can't tell me you didn't notice!” he snarled.

“Oh, I had headphones on all night, I was playing a RPG online to unwind... I thought you had your keys on you?”

“I do but they didn't work!”

Matt took the key Mello held out, carefully switched it with the one that had been in his pocket, and inserted it in the door and watched with satisfaction as Mello flushed when it turned.

“Don't say a word.”

Matt said nothing but had to bite his lip to keep from laughing as Mello stormed into the apartment.

-I Locked you out,
Left you naked in the front yard,
Burned all of your clothes,
Having nothing can be really hard,
Now I'm on the run,
I'd do it all again,
So Catch me if you can,-

Two days later Mello decided he wanted sex. Matt acquiesced... with a smirk.

“Mello we need lube. You are not sticking that in me using spit!” Mello growled but got up.

“And where might that be? Last I checked we used it all.”

“Oh, I picked some up today. I left it in the car though.” Matt looked up at Mello with his big green eyes and the blonde caved. “Fine I’ll go get it.” and just as Matt had expected Mello was so eager that he ran out to the car naked.

Leaving just after Mello, Matt made use of the first floors patio chair and blocked the main door so Mello couldn't even get into the building.

“Have fun Mello.” Matt whispered happily, though he did have a problem to get rid of....

-Cause, I took your car,
With your baby in the back seat,
Wrecked your credit card, you're in debt to a deadbeat,
Baby now you know how much it hurts,
When I caught you in the act wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!-

He peeked out of the window once his shower was done and laughed as he saw Mello pacing angrily back and forth in the front yard, completely naked.

Matt had also neglected to mention that his car, that was never locked, was so that night.

Matt left the bedroom light on all night and pretended to have fallen asleep waiting for the blonde, who was now yelling about conspiracies.

Matt tried not to laugh, much, as Mello was called by no less then three neighbors about his nighttime wanderings and how inappropriate it was.

-Again and again and again and again and e-yeah....-

Matt was forced to sleep on the couch again but didn’t mind. He didn’t really want to sleep in that bed again after what he saw.

-If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Well then I've got a story to tell,-

Mello and Near were supposed to hate one another, so why in the hell were they screwing each other? Was everything just repressed sexual tension? Or could even Near not resist the leather clad blonde?

Suddenly a devious, and slightly evil, grin spread across Matt’s face. Oh he was going to enjoy this…

-If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Then I know I'm going straight to hell!-

Mello wasn’t home once again; something about where he was going was none of Matt’s business. Which meant he was going to Near’s most likely.

That was fine… Matt had some spring cleaning to do.

Taking out a trash bag Matt gathered all of Mello’s clothes, took it out to the backyard, and set them on fire. Lighting a cigarette, with a smile on his face, he watched the mini bonfire.

Once everything was completely charred and unusable he put out the fire and left Mello’s clothes in a smoldering mess.

-I Locked you out,
Left you naked in the front yard,
Burned all of your clothes,
Having nothing can be really hard,-

“Why don’t you shower and take a nap, you look tired. I’ll make something special for dinner.” Matt told the blonde the moment he walked in the door. Kissing him on the cheek he wandered off into the kitchen.

Mello, taken completely off guard, did as was suggested.

“I left my dirty stuff on the floor, wash them for me.” Mello told the redhead as he walked out of the bathroom naked and to the bedroom before shutting the door.

“Sure thing Mello.” Matt waited until he was sure Mello was asleep before bagging the blonde’s last remaining change of clothes and bringing it to the garbage outside. Once back inside he wrote a nice little note for Mello and set it beside his pillow.

Taking a few extra things in a box with him, he took both sets of Keys with him, took one last look and walked out.

-Now I'm on the run,
I'd do it all again,-

Matt sped out of the garage where Mello parked his motorcycle; the blonde’s stash of chocolate tied to the back. Matt whooped as he turned the corner. Mello was going to be pissed but god was he loving this.

“I wonder how fast this can go?” Matt shrugged a shoulder and revved the engine; no wonder Mello loved his bike so much.

At the same time Mello woke up to a little message written on his pillow.

‘Revenge is sweeter than everything you’re missing.

LOVE Matt’

-So Catch me if you can,-

Matt sat inside the café and pulled out his laptop. With a grin he hacked into Mello’s credit card records and maxed everything out, along with erasing a payment or three.

Matt was, at that moment, very happy they had decided to go the slightly legal way after the Kira case.

-Cause, I took your car,
With your baby in the back seat,-

“Have fun with this one Mello.” Matt was always the one to get Mello out of trouble concerning his hacking, now the blonde was in trouble because of it.

Matt returned later that evening, without the motorcycle and chocolate; got in his car, and left. He waved to Mello who was shouting at him from the window.

“Catch me if you can!” he called out to the irate blonde.

Shaking his head in mirth he drove away from Mello’s apartment.

Although he was sad that everything had ended up this way, Matt was having the time of his life. He was never going to look back. He was going to start over and prove to himself and Mello that he didn’t need the blonde to be happy.

Happiness was the best revenge.

-Wrecked your credit card, you're in debt to a deadbeat-

It seemed that Mello wanted him found, now. He had probably even roped Near into this, but Matt wasn’t going to be caught so easily.

He had no idea how long he had been on the road but it didn’t matter, he felt free for the first time in years. Why had he loved the blonde so much? He should have noticed a long time ago that Mello really was just as ugly as the scar marring his face.

-Baby now you know how much it hurts,
When I caught you in the act wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!-

Matt headed to Vegas, and made sure to use Mello’s credit card. He wasn’t going to hide where he was; he just wasn’t going to get caught.

Three weeks later Matt was leaning against the hood of his car as a dark haired man walked up to him holding two drinks. He knew everything about Matt’s past, with the exception of Whammys, including Mello.

Matt took a picture of them kissing and sent it to Mello’s phone. They both laughed when the phone rang and a voice message was left.

Yup revenge was sweet.

Arms wrapped around the redheads middle and pulled him close.

But happiness was sweeter.

-Wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!-
