death note/ Going against gravity with you

Matt can’t point out the exact moment in which it all began, probably between a hug and a kiss stolen in a corner back at Wammy’s.

Matt remembers the pranks they used to make, hiding bugs in the drawers of the professor, he remembers how even bugs in Mello’s hands seemed gems.

Matt can’t say exactly when he started to fall for Mello but when he realized it he was already ready to die for Mello.
#14 Fire
And kissing Mello doesn’t do anything to put off the fire that Matt has inside, Mello’s lips and hands just make that fire grow stronger.

#22 Hollow
And Matt feels hollow when Mello is not by his side.

Hope is something Matt doesn’t want to believe in, but when he sees Mello first thing as he wakes up in the morning he can’t help hoping that they’ll remain together.

When Matt was little he was afraid of the dark, and when he slept alone he used to keep the light turned on, but he stopped when Roger moved him in the same room as Mello.

Matt loves Mello so much that even tasting metal on his tongue after they have had a fight is not unpleasant.
