Chapter 1: Surprises and Moment-crashers
"Okay, this should do it for now..", Soul said to himself with a confident smile, "..all I have to do is to wake her up."
He went into his Meister's room with the breakfast he had prepared for her. He silently stepped inside, making sure not to wake her up suddenly, 'cause if he does, it'll just spoil the surprise..
He placed the tray of food on her desk. Then made his way beside her bed.
He doesn't know why, but he feels so happy by just seeing his partner in such tranquil slumber, making him smile in contentment. He knelt beside the bed and tacked the stands of hair that were on her face to her ear. He stared at her in scrutiny, as if taking every details of her form.
He knows that she's not blessed in some areas, but those don't bother him. In fact, he loves them the way they are. And besides, she's still young, surely she'll have them be developed in some more years. He loves all of her. He loves her...
His gaze came to rest on her angelic face, her closed eyes, her nose, and to her ever enticing lips. Lips that he had dreamt of tasting with his own. He wanted to feel her soft lips,. lips that seems to be as inviting as luscious caramel. But he managed to stop the urge of doing so.
Closing his eyes, he inhaled her scent. The smell of her floral chyprē perfume was resonant within the air.
Soul's POV
I looked at Maka's sleeping form. She has changed from the first day we met. She now, somehow has improved in her chest area, her tits are not as flat as they were before but now, with the size of C, I guess. Those teasing I made were not from my heart, I jut like to see her blush, she's so cute. And the curves of her slender body are more defined. Her..ass, though always being covered with her oh so short skirt, seems so round and firm. And her legs...
Nahh..too much description. I'm running out of words! Dammit! She's more beautiful more than ever! Shit.! I'm already drooling...And my buddy down there's already in protest. I need an ice to calm it down!.
I calmed myself. I'm looking back at her. Good thing... She might have given me a Maka Chop if she saw me drooling over her.
"I just wish, we could stay l like this forever...together." I mumbled.
Wait.! What was I thinking? I took a glance at her once more. Her chest heaving up and down.
I felt something inside me, uncertain how to describe it, just so confusing...
That's impossible. Together... with Maka? She doesn't like me that way, ...or.. does she?' My mind was in limbo
But wait...does it mean, I'm in-love with her?' I held my head with both of my hands, as if trying to squish all of these annoying images in my mind..
How does being in-love would really be like anyway? What the HECK!
Why am I saying UNCOOL things like this anyway?..
"It can't be. We're just partners, cronies, friends." I groaned. I shook my head, trying to ignore all of those thoughts. 'Arghh..enough already, just be cool.." I sighed heavily and relaxed my body.
"Soul...Soul..?" I heard my name was being called by a familiar sleepy sounding voice.
I stood immediately in surprise, shakily. And tried not to stutter saying, "O-oh..g..good morning, Maka." Maka seemed a bit confused. Maybe she's just wondering why I'm here.
"Why are you in here, how long have you been here? And what's that smell?" she sat up rubbing her eyes with her hands. Her hair in messy way.
"I-I brought you this", bringing the food to her bed. I've been here for about who knows. I was zoning out, remember?...the food's probably cold.
Why? I'm not sick, am I?" she's looking at me an eyebrow raised. "...or could it be.." she look at me angrily. "..that you broke something again and do this to~" I just rolled my eyes and cut her off with,
"It's too early for morning argument woman!" I'm a little agitated.
"Happy birthday Maka.!" I greeted.
She just sat there when finally..
Maka gasps in realization " ..you have forgotten about it, haven't you,huh?" showing my shark-like teeth.
"Yeah. We were busy yesterday. I already forgot, ahehe." Maka chuckles rubbing her temple. We were summoned by Lord Death yesterday for a scheduled mission. We're going to Korea next week to meet up with the other Death Scythes.
"Breakfast in bed COOLEST GIFT." I grinned.
" hnmm? yeah..yeah..I just wish, I won't be celebrating my birthday in the hospital after this, Soul, haha." Maka said sarcastically. I glared daggers at her with that statement. She sure knows how to piss me off.
"Okay...sorry Soul. Thank you for the coolest gift, My Death Scythe." I was rewarded with the best smile she could muster. And yeah,,,she managed to turn me into a Death Scythe, two years after the fight against Azura.
You're most welcome, Maka.." I turned my back. " Okay then, hurry up and finish that.. "More surprises await you." holding the knob.
" I will, Soul." And with that, I closed the door. Leaving Maka in her room.
l smiled, congratulating myself for a job well done...
I hope...
"My Death Scythe huh... I guess...I really do,..LOVE YOU, My Meister... I love you, Maka Albarn.." I went to sit on the couch.
~=~=~o~=~=~
Maka's POV
Staring down at my food that he has prepared, I suddenly felt my eyes welling up.
" This is the WORST birthday ever...*sniffs* .I hate you Soul...*sniffs* You're stupid Soul Eater Evans.." I said, gritting my teeth. I tried to shag my tears, but failed. They're stubborn like I am. I sobbed in my room. I just need to flush this out of my system.
".. I love you Soul,.. But why is this happening to me?. Why do I love you?.." I covered my mouth with my hands. "yeah right, what else could I ask for... We'reー * sniffs* we're..." tears dropping into my soup.
ーoーAfter a few minutesーoーoー
Normal POV
Soul was watching TV in the living room when he heard Maka exclaimed,
"Woahh!.. ...!" she just came out from her room.
He instantly sprinted to her.. "What's wrong Maka?" in worried tone, but slowly smirks as he finally realizes what stunned her.
" You did all of this? I can't believe it! Everything's sparkling clean...Soul. !" Maka says in disbelief.
"Of course I did. A cool guy like me would do anything just to make his partner happy on her birthday.." flashing his sharp teeth. "Plus, an awesome partner like you deserves the coolest gifts, anyway...heh.."
He dashed to the living room but quickly returned to her, now holding something.
"Ahm...here. take this." he held it in front of Maka.
"..what's this Soul?" as she takes it.
"It's actually from your Mama. I made a call to her a month ago and requested if she could send a present for you this
day." He's looking at the ceiling, scratching the back of his head.
She really misses her mother. She hasn't seen her after the party that was held after the restoration of Death City, after the fight against Kishin Asura.
She opened the box and revealed its content. There's a letter, and a card that says, " Happy Birthday My dear Maka. Love-Mama"
"It's definitely Mama's writing." beads of tears escape from her eyes.
"How about that?"Soul asked pointing to a maroon-colored box.
" ..a music box from Scotland" she twirled the key and the instrument started playing..
After that...
She's in a trance, unable to decide on how she should react.
A while ago, she was sobbing in the safety of her room, now, she's being surprised by the one who caused her tears. But she knows within her that behind her pleasantries...she has bitterness and pain lives. Happiness, sorrow, and yearning for her mother...Mixed emotions.
" It's so not you... I've never imagined you, doing something like this without receiving a Maka Chop from me first..." rubbing her eyes, she suddenly brought Soul to an embrace. Pain suddenly fades...but not completely.
Soul's POV
Maka wrapped her arms around me. I in reverie. I can't process what's going on. Then I felt something slightly pushed my chest, and I looked down. Maka's staring at me, face ruddy. She loosens her arms, but before she could scape, I already pulled her closer to me. She's startled with my sudden action.
"Maka..." I breathed. ".please don't go yet."
I looked at her olive pools. She then relaxed her body then brought her hands to my shoulders. My mind tells me to fall for that tempting soft pink lips. She closed her eyes. And with that, as if a queue, I closed my eyes too, held her face and was about to lean in...When...
...
ーoーoーo
Maka's POV
I'm in cloud nine. Soul really did a good job surprising me today. I didn't help myself, I brought him to my arms, like the time we fought against MADNESS. But still, there was something that bothers me, Like, I forgot something. But then, shrugged it off, I must get back to reality first. I looked at him but he's staring at the wall. I felt my face heat up...yeah, I'm practically hugging Soul. I pushed him slightly, but that just made him look at me I was about to step backward when he suddenly pulled me by my waist. Then in husky voice he says, "Maka, don't go yet." he tightens his grip. His crimson eyes made me melt, my knees wobbling, my heart beats faster, the sound of his breathing was like a magic spell. I could smell his scent, his natural masculine scent that makes me to want more of him.. I submit myself to that certain feeling, I need to hold onto something, then I found his shoulders. Soul was about to kiss me but suddenly...
''

''
''
"YAHー* BANNNGGG...(goes the door, destroyed)!..*.-OOO. BOW TO YOUR GO- " It's Black Star kicking the door. The moron owes us another door!
" Black Star what have you don-" Tsubaki-chan stops her word. Now, the two are staring at us, wide-eyed, mouths gaped.
Soul looked at me, then to the moment crashers, and back to our bodies ( still clinging to each other). We quickly withdrew ourselves from that embarrassing position. An awkward silence came next.
I swear to Shinigami... the four of us were as red as the surface of Mars."
"..I-I'mgoingtomakesomecoffee.." and dashed my way for an escape.
"..'t's so uncool.."
"
"'
~=~=~o~=~=~
Tsubaki's POV
Maka-chan and I are already in her bedroom, after that little show she and Soul-kun had earlier. I am helping her get dressed for the party.
"So, Maka-chan." I started "..does it mean Soul-kun and you are al-"
"NO...and we will never be." she cut me off.
"But, about.." I asked hesitantly while combing her hair in front of the mirror.
"That's, that's just nothing. And I'd rather not to talk about it for now." she murmured.
I stopped what I'm doing, she turned around and looked at me. "Sorry Tsubaki-chan but I guess we better get off now. I'm sure the boys are getting impatient." she manage to feign a smile. But I know her too well, I know that behind that smile, she's hurting inside.
Soul's POV
"Maka, Tsubaki, hurry up in there." I called out.
" Coming!" Tsubaki replied.
"Tsubaki-chan, I can't go out like this!" I heard Maka whining inside of her room.
"But Maka-chan, I already told you, They'll surely love it. Just trust me." Tsubaki told her. "..come on already."
I heard the click of the knob, Black Star and I turned our heads to look toward the direction of Maka's room.
"Whoah!. " Black Star and I stood instantly and jaw-dropped in astonishment. "..M-
Ma-ka..is that you?!" exclaimed Black Star.
"Ahihi. Of course Black Star, it's me." she giggles, her face flushed.
Great...Black Star caught my line again...and Maka's attention too. But, yes she does look absolutely beautiful today. She's not wearing her usual pigtails, she had her hair down. She's wearing a red thin-strapped dress reaching just above her knees with a black belt around her waist matched with a pair of black stiletto,
"Just one more thing is missing." Tsubaki approached me and handed me a blue rectangular box. "..go and give it to her, Soul-kun." and she winked at me.
"Black Star, let's go downstair." she exited the room dragging Black Star with her.
I opened the box and held the thing in my hand. I looked at Maka, she's just looking at me the whole time.
Maka's POV
I guess, the boys did like the way how I look in this dress. Tsubaki-chan insisted me to wear this for the party. She told me that these were from Liz and Patty, as a gift. Soul stands in front of me, in black suit with a mint green long-sleeved shirt, paired with black slacks and shoes that went along with a black necktie too. I really like seeing him in a formal outfit, he is tantalizing.
"Soul, aren't we going to follow them?" I asked while he's holding the thing Tsubaki-chan gave him.
"Ah Maka.." running his hand through his hair "..could you turn around for just a second?" he's blushing, alright.
.
"Huh?" I asked, but did what he asked me to do.
"May I?" he asked and I just nodded.
He held my hair from behind then had a necklace hung around my neck. I took a look at it, it's actually a flower shaped amber medallion necklace with diamond beads on it.
"There...You look totally wonderful, Maka." he complimented. I felt his breath tickled my left ear, sending shiver through my spine. Kami-sama I think I'm going to faint! I can feel my face heat up.
"T-Thanks Soul.." I stammered.
"Okay, shall we go now." flashing his sharp teeth, he beckons me to go first.
=~=~AT THE PARTY=~=~=~
Everybody's having great time at the party. Maka's been greeted by the countless guests. And most of them tell the same thing 'Maka looks gorgeous'. And lots of guys were trying to catch her attention but she's too preoccupied at this moment entertaining her friends. Some of them also tried to ask her for a dance but they we're all rewarded with 'VENOMOUS GLARES' from Soul. But of course, Soul won't let Maka notice him, it will be the opposite of cool for him, right?
Maka's POV
I'm so tired after that wave of people that came to greet me. Now, I am with my girl friends. Papa's out of the country so he's not here to pester me. So here I am, talking to Liz, Tsubaki and Patty then I didn't help myself from telling them the things that had happened earlier this morning, ...'EVERYTHING' .
"It's true, they were like...Ahm.." Tsubaki tries to form a word to describe something.
"What? Monkeys clinging to each other and doing one another!" That made me blush. Now I regretted telling them about the event before Black Star and Tsubaki barged Into our apartment.
"Patty! NO! I just hugged him because I appreciated the things he has done this day." I retorted, hoping that they'll buy it. I want to walk out! What is this anyway? a police interrogation?
"oh really? Why don't we ask Tsubaki what kind of show she and Black Star just had happened to interrupt." Liz smirks sheepishly.
"..oh I guess our little Maka finally made her move.. Did you tease him huh, Maka? Did you even kiss him? TELL ME! TELL ME!" I just face-palmed in embarrassment. I swear... she'll be the cause of my death...
"No, We didn't." I said in exasperation.
"But your faces were merely about two-inches apart." added Tsubaki-chan.
What? Not you too Tsubaki-chan. Why doesn't she just help me get through with it. 'I need you to be an ally, Tsubaki-chan.'
My face's burning hot!
"..that was a mistake. I should have not let myself be carried away into that moment." Tears start to form on my eyes. I've been crying the whole day. But still, the pain is still in my chest. Maybe, I should tell them. I need them to listen...
"What?! hejustrejectedyou!"
"No, he didn't Liz. " I said in tired tone." I was woken up by the smell of food he prepared for me. and when I felt his wavelength, I just pretended I was still
sleeping. Then I just heard him say. 'We're just partners, cronies, friends'. But I am not sure."
I do not know what to believe. Am I to believe and hold onto the glimpse of hope that maybe, he also loves me? Should I even put assumptions to his SWEET ACTS he shows me?
Or believe to the words that came out of his mouth that I am just a friend for him?
"I'm going to slay that asshole!"
"Calm down big sis. I'm sure Soul-kun has an explanation." Patty told Liz.
"Are you sure that's what he have said?" Tsubaki-chan stares at me.
" I am."
" Then why did he do all of this just for you? And what is that act you had with him this morning? He would have not done that if you're just a friend for him. Don't get me wrong, Maka-chan but I think, Soul-kun also loves you. I mean, he's always there for you not just because you are the meister and he's the weapon but because, HE LOVES YOU." Tsubaki-chan tries to convince me but, I can't convince my own
self. "..and he's willing to sacrifice even his own life just for you."
"Tsubaki don't try to defend Soul. Of course he'll protect her, because it's his responsibility and Maka is his friend!" Liz retaliates.
"But have you forgotten, that Soul-kun is your friend too, Liz-chan!"
"Men are all the same!"
"But Soul-kun is not lik-...
"Tsubaki...!"
"Enough already!" I couldn't take it anymore! I let my tears stream to my cheeks. It hurts me so much! "..stop it already. I don't want you guys to fight just because of me!" I just sobbed. Having seen my friends argue like that because of me, only made it worse.
"Sorry..." Liz murmured.
"Maka-chan, I guess you better approach Soul-kun about that. Besides, you've been keeping your feelings for him the whole three years time. And it's the only way to solve all of these." Patty suggested.
"No, I can't face him. I don't think I could accept it if he's going to reject me face to face." I said, burrying my head into my arms that were on the table top.
"Don't worry Maka-chan, We'll always be here for you. And if ever Soul-kun hurts you, we'll assassinate him." Patty said, patting my head. I cried again until I felt better.
"Sorry guys." I showed them the smile that I always wear to reassure them that I'm okay. "..sorry for making you worry."
"It's okay."
"So. are you ready to solve this?" Tsubaki-chan smiled back.
"Un!" I nodded. "That's the brave Maka Albarn we knew!" Patty cheered.
"Hmmm, Maka I have a better plan." Liz said, a sly grin crept on her lips. What is she planning? I just hope it won't end up badly like anyone to be hurt or something, even though I am already hurting.
"..trust me guys. We're going to teach Soul a lesson" she smirks in a menacing way. She got her phone from her pocket and made a call.
"Yes it's me, Liz. Listen, I want you to come here this instance"
"I have another mission for you."
" ...she's actually here"
"okay thank you, see you then."
She looked at me" Okay now. We just have to wait for someone."
What was that all about? Tsubaki, Patty and I just exchanged glares in curiosity. What the heck is she going to do? And who's this 'SOMEONE'? I'm getting nervous.
then after about five minutes...
"Liz and Patty Thompson. Long time no see!" A guy called out.
"Sorry to disturb you." Liz apologizes.
"Nah, it's okay." He sat beside me.
"Wow, How was your trip in Paris? We have not seen you for 8 months." Tsubaki said.
"It was great. Actually I've just arrived three weeks ago, right Maka? Oh, Happy birthday Maka!"
"Yes, we've bumped into one another last week and he had invited me for a coffee." I explained to them.
" Then why didn't you even tell us?" asked Tsubaki and Patty in unison.
"I requested them not to tell you guys." Tsubaki-chan looked at him with a confused expression. "Them?"
"Yes, Liz, Kim and Maka:" he smiled apologetically scratching his head.
"Ahh, You guys are unfair!" Patty whined. "..where's the giraffe you've promised me!" And yes, Patty hasn't changed that much. She still likes GIRAFFES. She even accused Soul of stealing her giraffe-printed shirts. Saying that Soul has his own interest with those long-necked creatures because she caught him looking at her 'Test paper-turned-giraffe' during the 'Super Written Exam. Poor Soul, he had to avoid Patty that time because she's so mad at him for nothing.
"Don't worry, I have your requested stuffs." He says.
"So shall we talk about the plan now." Liz said sarcastically.
"Huh? So you were the one she called earlier." I glanced at him and to Liz.
"Liz-chan, are you sure about this?" I felt Tsubaki-chan's wavelength, she is getting worried, and same goes for me. The farther this meeting goes, the more the butterflies wander inside my gut.
No, not just it...hesitation, guilt and concern for S..
I sighed to release the tension building inside me, but it just earned worried stares from my friends. "I think, we should forget about this. This is wrong, all wrong."
"No Maka. We will make sure not to hurt him. Tsubaki was right, Soul is my friend too." Liz winked at me.
"Liz told me about your problem, I will help you teach that JACKASS a lesson." He said confidently. He was not listening to me.
"Huh?"
"Just trust us, okay?" He winks.
What will happen now?
Soul's POV
I really hate crowded places. I don't like parties like this but I have to accompany Maka. As his weapon, I should always be beside my Meister so that, I'll immediately be there in case of any trouble. She's so busy so, I'm all alone in the balcony.
"Soul, dude, What are you doing here?" I turned to see Kid and Black Star.
"Nothing, I just want some fresh air." I just replied nonchalantly. I felt a hand patted my shoulder. It's Kid. "Do you want to talk about it?" he asked me. What is he saying?
"huh? Nothing dude."
"Com'mon, We know you too well Soul."
"Yeah bro. Tell him about you and Maka. Y'know, KISSY-HUGGY THINGY!"
Stupid Black Star. He's such a BIG MOUTH!
"SHUT UP DUDE!" I grimaced and pushed him because he was doing the kissy-lips in front of my face. GROSS!
"What? You mean they have kissed?"
" Yeah.. But they stopped because they were stunned with my AWESOMENESS...! Nyahahaa!"
"That never happened MORON!" jeez. Why is he even my bestfriend.
"Oh yeah...? then why are you blushing!. NYAHAHA!" he smirks sheepishly. So UNCOOL..
"OKAY FINE I GIVE UP! JUST KEEP YOUR FUCKING MOUTH SHUT! OR I'M GONNA PUNCH YOU TO THE FACE...LET YOU FALL DOWN ON THE GROUND THEN YOU'LL FOREVER BE QUIET!" I slurred, hoping that he'll understand that he had just stripped the COOLNESS out of me. Black Star's standing on the balcony's railing. I hate this punk FOR BEING DENSE. I hate myself for being STUPID, choosing a buffoon like him as my friend. Then I told them the whole story.
"Hmm. So that's why the two of you are being grumpy with each other."
"We're not being grumpy, Kid! She's been avoiding me since last week and I dont know why. She has been more fickle-minded lately!"
"Chill dude, we're not here to argue with you. Kid and I, BLACK STAR, YOUR GOD IS HERE TO HELP YOU LOVER BOY!"
"Are you sure you did not do anything to make Maka mad at you? Kid asked. Okay, let me think... All I did was to call her 'Tiny Tits', even though I know she's not anymore. And calling her the usual 'book worm'. I guess those are not the reason.
"Nope dude. I just call her the same things." I said slouching my back and resting my chin on the table. "..or maybe she just have her monthly...y'know.." I said lazily.
" Nah. I doubt it." Kid said, shaking his head.
" Soul, I want you to be honest," Kid took a deep breath before continuing "..have you confessed to Maka?" I am shocked with what he have said. "..w-what?"
"I get it. You have not done it. Soul, you better act now. We all know how much you care for Maka, how much you love Maka. But you must know...that lots of guys are showing their interest toward her!"
"Kid what the hell are you talking about? I am not going to do that. And what made you think I will?!" I stood up clenching my teeth. Why am I denying it to them? No, not just to them...to myself. I actually wanted to tell Maka about my feelings but I can't. I am afraid that I might just hurt her. Because I know that she's skeptical when it comes to MEN, and I am not exempted.
"Soul, You don't have to deny it. We are not that as stupid as you think. We have been friends that seems to be forever." Wow.. Black Star became serious with this. He is right. I should trust them because they are my only friends that I could count on in times like this.
"Yeah okay. Sorry guys, it was so uncool of me." I then smirked. and gave Black Star our signature High-five.
"That's more like it!" Kid patted my back.
"Dude cut it out, patting me like a dog." I grimaced. "Sorry dude." he chuckled and we reverted to our seats.
"I am just afraid that she might reject me. We all know that Maka doesn't trust anyone easily, especially with MEN. I just don't want to ruin anything. As long as I can, I will protect our friendship."
"That's the point Soul. Trust!" What's with TRUST?
"You should trust her the way she trusts you!" Sure I trust Maka but what is Kid trying to imply? Am I being dense?
"Com'mon Bro, We also know that Maka feels the same for you. 'cause if she's not, then why are you still living in together even you're already a Death Scythe?" Black Star has a point. I guess, I should really tell Maka. i must...
"You're right. Black Star. But what am I going to do?"
"Believe to the great Black Star... Pin her to the wall and kiss her until she kisses you back then exchange 'iloveyou's'! NYAHAHA!. Damn..! Why did I listen to this moron! ."...who knows, you might even end up fucking each other on the couch!...HAHAHー * I punched him on his face and he fell on the floor with a thud.* "You're so loud!" I won't do that to her. I don't want Maka think that I'm just like her philandering father.
"Ouch.. I was just changing the mood, it was too serious." Black Star defended himself.
"Enough with jokes Black Star. We should help Soul." Kid helps him get on his heels.
"Okay fine. Then why don't you ask her to dance with you?" said Black Star reverting to the railing, crossing his arms.
"Black Star!" I grabbed both of his upper arms, rocking him back and forth. "..dude you're A genius !"
I know, I'm the God, remember."
he smirks while rubbing his nose with his index finger and showed me a thumbs-up. I grinned at him and looked at Kid. Kid nodded at me. And I stormed my way back to the mansion's Grand Hall where the party's being held.
"Good luck Bro!" And I waved to them.
It's about time to take her. I can't wait to see her. I run with the feeling of excitement, keeping the smile on my lips.
Normal POV
Soul headed back inside the Grand Hall to look for Maka. He can't find her easily, he had to go through the crowd. Then he spotted Ox and asked him if he knows her whereabouts. "She's on the dance floor." pointed 0x. Soul's eager to see Maka.
"Wait Soul-kun!" Kim called and Soul turned to her. "Why?" he asks.
"Ah.. n-nothing." Kim mumbled not looking directly at him. Kim's expression seems to implicate something. An odd feeling that tells Soul not to continue.
But he just obeyed his heart which made him regret in the end...
Because, the next sight before him, only made him irate. He flinched, and dropped the glass that he was holding.
..there before his very eyes...
A brown-haired guy, kneeling in front of Maka, and kissed her hand. The guy looked at Maka...
"Maka Albarn, will you be my girlfriend?" Soul clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and unconsciously turned his left arm into a scythe. He wants stop that scene, he wants to kill that BASTARD, but he cant't move his body. He is shuddering. His feet are numb. He's hoping that she would say 'NO'. He wanted to shout, and tell Maka that he is there...
"Stop! Listen to me Maka!"
'Maka, I'm here! Look at me! Oi..Maka...
'Maka! Can't you feel my wavelength?! MAKA.!'
"Maka I love you...!"
But nothing comes out of his mouth..
"Yes, I'll be your girlfriend." Maka replied.
Those words made his world subverted.
Soul can't move.
He can't believe that someone...
..already took Maka from him.
And what shatters his heart most ...
is the image...
of Maka...
'...Kissing that BASTARD..'
