"This is our stop," Mello announces as he opens the door. M wasn't going to lie, she expected him to have some sort of super secret underground base, but whatever worked for him would work for her.

The door opens to reveal a room stained with the smell of chocolate and some various other unusual smells. A man with messy auburn hair and goggles chuckles as he slouches in his seat, slamming the buttons on an ZBox controller. He stops and turns to greet Mello with a nod, while oddly eyeing M.

The man clicks a button on the remote, which had to have been the pause button, and fully diverts his attention to the two. M felt unusual in this situation, and avoided the man's eye contact.

"Matt, this is Valyn. She's the one I've been talking about would come to help me. Valyn, this is Matt, he's a good buddy of mine." Mello introduces M to Matt. (M also thought it was ironic that all of their names started with M, but she knew it was a bad idea to bring that up right now.)

Matt loosely shakes hands with M. He jumps back down onto the couch with a grin. Mello grabs something shiny from his pocket as they stand in silence.

"Anyways, she's here to help us with the investigation, and that's it Matt. No asking Valyn if she has a friend." Mello scolds, when Matt just lets out a long and exasperated groan. He rubs his hand over his forehead with a sigh.

M chuckles, and the two look at her in surprise. She suddenly stops from the pure awkwardness and smiles sheepishly.

"So do you have a friend?" Matt opens up his computer and logs in, as Mello places his palm on his forehead with a sigh of annoyance.

M fell silent. "Listen, if we catch Kira, I'll give you my friend's phone number, alright?" She promises with a wink at the end. Matt grins with victory as he clicks his mouse.

Well, out of honesty, M wasn't sure if she'd see her friend again. Skye was literally the girlfriend of a mass murderer, and he was insane. Light could kill her without a doubt if she had dangerous information about him. But maybe, just maybe, Light loved Skye enough not to kill her.

Mello sighs, grabbing the two's attention. It was almost as if they had forgotten Mello was even there. Mello crosses his arms as he takes a large bite from his chocolate bar. He extends some to M, who takes some with a thankful nod, while Matt just frowns.

"Alright, down to the actual business here. I need to know what you and L knew about Kira." Mello suggests, taking another chunk of the chocolate bar and inserting it into his mouth.

M pauses, biting her lip. What did she know about this? She had her suspects, sure, but what was needed was real information.

"We know that Kira needs only a name and a face to kill, which is why it took him or her so long to kill off L. Which could mean-."

"-that you're in danger too, right? I mean c'mon you told me your real name outside in a loud voice, who knows who heard it? I could see Kira going after you, being L's assistant." Mello interrupts M's thought process, as M just hesitates with a nervous smile.

"I was actually going to say it could mean that they must have been close to L to find his real name. Besides, who said I gave you my real name?" M adds, as Mello nods with a grin. Surely he hadn't been stupid enough to fall for that fake name crap, right?

He clicks his tongue. "Smart L, I can't believe I was convinced. Guess it was just you who convinced me." Mello hints with a flirty tone as M rolls her eyes.

"Save it for another time, Romeo."

Matt interjects. "Who are some suspects?"

M hesitates once again. Should she leave out the part where L suspected her? That idea sounded best in this situation.

"There were three suspects as of recently. I in fact, were one of those, but L soon dropped it and told me it was for my own protection. The other two were Misa Amane, and-" M stops, remembering Light. Her eyes narrow as she nearly slams her hand on the table.

"Light Yagami."

Matt snorts, ruining the mood. "Light Yagami? I'm not laughing at the fact that he's your suspect, but, his last name backwards. M lets out a groan as she notices Mello crack a small smile as well.

"Honestly you two are so immature." She mumbles to herself.

Today was certainly going to a long day, not doubt about it.
