Maka POV

Soul had dragged me upstairs and through one of the Academy's hallways before I finally broke free, managing to stop us both in our tracks. "Soul, what the hell is wrong with you!" I demanded. How could he just make us leave Chrona after we JUST got here!

Soul sighed. "Maka, chill."

"Chill! You just made poor Chrona feel neglected just now!" I shouted, pulling out a spare book from my bag. I was gunna give him such a Maka-chopping!

His eyes went wide and he threw his hands in front of him in defense. "Whoa! Hey! NO!"

"Why would you do something like that to her?" The jerk!

"I was HELPING her, damnitt!"

...What?

I lowered my book, my anger replaced with confusion. "What do you mean? Helping her with what?"

He visibly relaxed and patted my back (and also taking my book from me). "Look, Maka, no offence, but you aren't the most...educated on relationships."

RELATIONSHIPS! "You and Chrona-!"

"What? NO!" He facepalmed. "Chrona and KID."

"...Kid...wasn't there..."

"Trust me, Maka, he was JUST there," He smirked knowingly before walking ahead of me, leaving me confused and upset that my questions were going unanswered.

I fallowed him down the hall, beginning to get more frustrated with each step. "Soul, tell me what you mea-!" I was interupted by Kid running-litterally-running into us in the hall.

He jumped back and steadied Soul-who he ran into. "Oh, Soul! Maka! I'm sorry, I didn't see you there." He laughed.

Soul and I just froze taking in Kid's appearance. His hair was disarray, his shirt wrinkled and untucked, his jacket held in one arm, and his other hand balled (like he was holding something). It was so...not Kid...

"Whoa, Kid, looking good," Soul laughed. Good?

Kid blushed, looking over himself. "Ah...yes...Well, as ungentlemanly as this may sound, my appearance has been the furthest thing from my mind as of late." He explained.

My eyes bugged. Kid? Not care about his appearance?..."Soul, we weren't sucked into the madness, were we?"

Soul laughed at that and turned back to Kid. "Goin' to see Chrona, Kid?"

Kid turned red at that. "Um...going to see her again tomorrow...She's moving in then."

"Moving in?" I perked up.

"She didn't tell you?" Kid inquired. "I offered for Chrona to move in with me and she agreed. She's moving in tomorrow."

...
I couldn't believe it. I tuned out Soul telling Kid bye and Kid's response before he walked off. Chrona was moving in with Kid? I knew that she was dating him but...
moving in? This soon? How could she not tell me? And Soul had said something about helping Chrona before...Was I...out of the loop? I was the niave one now? The little kid of the group that everyone had to hold hands with and lead along?

"C'mon, Maka, let's go," Soul said. "We can visit Chrona tomorrow after she settles into Kid's place."

I swallowed and nodded, holding back the hurt and followed him out. (A/N: thats for u, blackdragon987...i usually dont catch my grammer errors, but im trying to catch myself more lol).

Stein POV

Walking to work the next day, I felt like shit. I had been up nearly all night (I don't think I need to go into too much detail on what I was up to) and it was taking it's toll on me.

I knew this wasn't healthy. I knew that now that I had achieved my fantasy, I should just let it go...let HER go, and move on with my life...Living like this wasn't good for me. And if I wasn't careful, my obsession with that little pinkette could affect my work and everyone already thought I was nuts enough without falling asleep on the job. I knew that...

So why couldn't I stop thinking about her?

I paused, the morning air chilly against my skin, the smoke drifting lazily from my cigerette...The streets were empty, but even if they had been busy, I doubt I could have broken my train of thought so easily.

My fantasy...I had lived it. I fully admitted that I was attracted to her sexually. But Kid was IN love with her. I should back off and let them live happily ever after. But...I couldn't. Why not? I wasn't...in love, was I?

I shook my head and started walking again.

No...There was no possible way I was in love.
