You have been friends with Mello and Matt since the gray, depressing days at Wammy’s House back in Winchester, England. The three of you have grown up together like siblings, always clashing heads and throwing verbal insults at each others. Though it was only light insults and never something personal.

But something personal Mello has been bottling up is his intense feelings for you. God, he wishes you would look at him— see him for who he is: a lovesick hopeless romantic who wants nothing more than your body against his and to ignore Matt. Mello hates the way you and Matt talk. How you always make jokes and are around each other when he’s out in the mafia. Mello wants to be the one to have all your love and attention, wanting to come home after a long day and snuggle up against you and whisper sweet nothings into your beautiful ears. Mello wants to worship the very ground you walk on.

But he knows that’s ridiculous. You would never love him since you’re always so infatuated with Matt. Mello doesn’t understand why you care so much about the smoking gamer young man. Sure, Matt is cute, but it’s Matt: lazy and sloppy and acts like a whining, kicked puppy most of the time. Matt isn’t strong or manly or knows how to “take care” of people within Mello’s time in the mafia.

Mello knows he can provide for you the life you want and deserve, but he only wishes he would have an ounce of the same love and affection that you give Matt. So he’ll watch from the background, plotting of ways to make you fall for him and not Matt. He’ll do anything for your attention.
