MelloXReader Chocolate Stained Love Letter

     "Dude, quit staring or she will notice something is up," Mello hissed at his best friend. Matt laughed softly and looked back down at his DS rather than at the girl Mello had pointed out to him, his brown hair falling into his face a bit as his goggles fell off his head and now only hung around his neck. "I can't see why you don't just tell her already, her name is ___ isn't it?" Matt whispered to his best friend, better known as the chocolataholic in the Wammy house. Mello glared from behind his blonde hair and bit down had on his chocolate bar 'snap'. "I can't do that Matt," he said with a mouth full of chocolate. This caused Matt to laugh, earning him a hard punch to the shoulder from Mello. "Ow, hey, sorry man but it's funny how you aren't afraid to threaten Near, steal chocolate from the fridge late at night, start fights, or back talk anyone yet you are afraid to tell a girl you like her," Matt replied and shut his DS. Now Matt pulled his orange tinted goggles over his eyes and he smiled expectantly at Mello. The chocolate lover slouched down even more into the couch and grumbled under his breath. "Thanks a lot Matt, you were supposed to help me not make fun of me idiot," he told his friend and ate another piece of chocolate 'snap'. Matt studied his best friend who had now taken on a shade of orange and he brushed his brown hair out of his face. "How about you write her a letter Mells?" he suggested with a shrug. Mello frowned up at Matt because of the nickname Matt always liked to use. "Maybe.." Mello replied and glanced over at you as you worked.

I feel like I'm drowning in ice water
My lips have turned a shade of blue
I'm frozen with this fear
That you may disappear
Before I've given you the truth

     It was late, Matt was currently asleep, and this is how he knew it was really late. Matt would stay up late for hours just playing games, usually until very early in the morning, so if he was asleep.. then that was really bad. Mello tossed and turned in his bed restlessly then finally just climbed out of bed and walked over to his desk. He yanked the desk chair out and plopped down in it, staring down at the papers and pencils that rested on the desk. "A letter huh?" Mello muttered and sat upright. He picked up the pencil and placed the tip against the paper. 'How do I start? Dear ___, I like to watch you when you don't know I'm watching…' Mello started to write as he thought. Suddenly he blinked his blue eyes and crumpled up the paper. "I sound like a freaking creeper!" he hissed and tossed the sheet of paper aside. Mello rubbed the bridge of his nose and started again. 'Dear ___, you are very pretty…' He crumpled up this paper also. "Now I sound like a weakling and sappy!" he snapped and tossed this paper aside also.

     Mello groaned and slammed his head down on the desk.  "I'm such an idiot, I can't tell her and I can't even write it down for her," he grumbled unhappily. He sat up and rubbed his forehead before glancing at Matt, considering the option of waking him up. 'No, this has to be my letter, not his,' Mello thought determinedly and stared down at the paper in front of him. "Dear ___, I like chocolate. From, Mello…. Gyah! What the heck is that?! That's just stupid!" he hissed and tossed the paper in the air only to have it hit him in the head. Mello rubbed his head absentmindedly and stared down at the paper, practically begging the chocolate gods to make some sort of words form on the page. "Dear ___.... I suck.. and can't write a letter for you.. I hate life…. Dang it!" Mello crumbled yet another paper, killing many trees in the process of letter writing. He leaned back in the chair and frowned, his blue eyes staring at the paper, willing it to go up in flames. "Stupid.." he huffed and lost his balance, causing the chair to tip backwards, sending him to the floor with it.

I bleed my heart out on this paper for you
So you can see what I can see
I'm dying here (I'm dying here)
'Cause I can't say what I want to
I bleed my heart out just for you

     Mello stared down at the next paper and pulled a chocolate bar out of his stash after climbing back into his chair. 'Maybe that bump will do me some good' he thought sarcastically and winced in pain as he touched the back of his head. "Okay, just focus' he thought. "Dear ___, you are an exceptional student here at Wammy House much like Near, Matt, and I…"

I've always dreamed about this moment
And now it's here and I've turned to stone
I stand here petrified
As I look you in your eyes
My head is ready to explode

     "___," Mello said, causing you to look up from a puzzle you had been working on. A smile spread across your face and you raised your eye brows at him. "Yes Mello? How are you today?" you replied, your ___ colored eyes studying him. Mello gulped, he had never felt so nervous in his life, and his hands were even shaking a bit. It was like Matt had said, how could he do so many things without a second thought or any fears… but you have him butterflies in his belly and made him as nervous as ever? 'Stupid Matt, prove him wrong Mello' he thought to himself then shoved the paper into your hand. "Here, this is for you so you have to read it," he said hurriedly but in a way that made it sound more like a command rather than a request. You laughed softly and a light shade of red danced across your face as you unfolded the piece of paper. "Did you write this?" you asked and looked up from the letter, having noticed that his name was signed on the bottom even before you read it. The blonde nodded his head and grumbled something under his breath along the lines of 'hurry up'. You noticed his shaking then and wondered if he was okay for a moment, you would have asked if you didn't think he would snap at you to just read the note already.

I bleed my heart out on this paper for you
So you can see what I can see
I'm dying here
'Cause I can't say what I want to
I bleed my heart out just for you


Dear ___,

      You are an exceptional student here at Wammy House much like Near, Matt, and I. Some things I've noticed about you is how you work hard on everything in our classes, you always help and talk to all the other students even if they don't like you, you really like to do puzzles, you also like to play outside on the swings, you even talk to me when no one else wants to! A lot of the students in Wammy House don't like me because of my attitude, but you don't seem to mind.. I kind of like that. You and my best friend Matt are the only ones that like to be around me, so that makes you two special. So now, you are probably wondering why I've noticed these things about you right? Well I know more than that- you don't like lima beans, you prefer chocolate sweets, you have a habit of biting your bottom lip when you are frustrated or thinking, you really suck at drawing, you like to read, your favorite color is ___, and you are pretty good at video games(At least that is what Matt says). I know these things because… well..

     There are several things you have to know about me. 1) I love chocolate almost more than anything. 2) I have a very short temper. 3) Matt and you are the only friends I have. 4) There aren't many things or people I like. This includes Near, I hate the albino. 5) I want to surpass L before Near. 6) I REALLY love chocolate. These are all important to me.. but I think I have something else… well someone else that I think is more important. Remember how I said I love chocolate almost more than anything after number one? You don't have to go back and read it, I know I wrote it! Now, there is one thing, well person, I have grown to like and maybe even to the point of love.. more than chocolate which I value more than anything and well, that person is you ___ ___.

     Um, yeah, I know this letter is stupid and I understand if you don't return the feelings and all… but I'd really like it if you did return the feelings- just forget I said that, I have no eraser to erase that last line and my hand writing is sloppy enough and hard to read without crossing words out!

Mello



And it's all here in
Black and white and red
For all the times
Those words were never said

     You looked up from the letter with a bright red face and a small smile. Mello studied your face with his blue eyes and automatically took the small smile the wrong way. "Look, just forget it!" he snapped and tried to grab the letter back from you so that he could rip the letter up and forget he ever wrote it. Quickly you moved the letter behind your back with one hand and your other hand grabbed Mello's wrist. "You didn't even wait for me to say anything. What I wanted to say is that I really like you too Mello and that this letter is absolutely great and I'd like to keep it," you said and tilted your head, your ___ colored hair falling to the side and out of your face. Mello narrowed his blue eyes at you but didn't shake his wrist out of your hold. "Then why didn't you look happy or something?" he asked suspiciously, not sure if you are just saying this to make him feel better or if you really like him. You smiled and gently pulled on his wrist, pulling him into a hug. "I wasn't expecting you to like me Mello, I've liked you for a while, you and your 'bad attitude' as you put it. I was just surprised and a bit overwhelmed, but I am so glad that you told me," you explained and rested your head against his chest. You listened as his heart beat wildly in his chest and relaxed when he returned your hug.

I bleed my heart out on this paper for you
So you can see what I can see
I'm dying here
'Cause I can't say what I want to
I bleed my heart out just for you

     Mello smiled since your head was against his chest and you couldn't see his face. 'Stupid Matt… I'll have to thank him later, I guess I'll have to put up with his smoking in our room today,' he thought and gently ran his fingers through your hair. "Hey ___? I love you," he mumbled and blushed, kind of embarrassed to say it aloud rather than just having you read it. You hugged him even closer to yourself and smiled up at him. "I love you too Mello, and I'm honored to be loved even more than your beloved chocolate," you told him honestly and pressed your lips to his.
