"Those two slept together already?" Mail frowned and took the phone from Near- almost swerving into oncoming traffic.

"This was sent from Mail," Near informed, pulling the phone away. "I would appreciate Mail keeping his eyes on the road!"

"Huh?" Mail tossed the phone back to Near. "Uhh...well, I'm not completely proud of it but, he's pretty nice between the sheets, if you read me."

Mail laughed.

"I am impressed," Near admitted, putting the phone away.

"In which instance?" Mail asked.

"That Mail was able to leak it to a press in a way that didn't appear false," Near snorted. "Especially since it didn't actually happen. Because according to 'Missy', Nate passed out and she drove him home that night. But Mail insisted they slept together. It was very clever... Mail almost had me convinced until I read Missy's reply."

"These controversial relationships are what make careers." Mail shrugged. "I was helping Nate out."

"He didn't seem to appreciate it," Near informed. "Rather ungrateful of him, really."

"Ah, it's okay." Mail waved it off. "Probably better for him that it wasn't real anyway. Otherwise, he'd never get with Mihael."

"Mihael doesn't seem to be interested," Near hummed. "Nate obsesses over him but Mihael has shown no signs of adoration in reply."

"I don't know about that." Mail replied. "But I don't think he's any good for Nate either."

"Why is that?" Near asked him, turning back to the redhead with a curious look on his face.

"Well...what's Mello like back home?" Mail asked.

"They are two separate people," Near reminded.

"Somehow, I doubt that." Mail snorted. "...Nate's too nice of a guy to let him make a mistake he'll regret for the rest of his life."

"...Mail likes him, doesn't he?" Near hummed.
