She stormed out of his apartment. "How could he?", She ran all the way back to her and Soul's apartment. She sat on the steps outside and began to bawl. This isn't supposed to be happening... Her and Kid were the perfect couple. Everyone was jealous of the relationship, yet this happens? She heard footsteps approaching her and slowly raised her head. "Geez, do you look terrible.", it was Soul. He smirked and took a seat next to Maka. He sat there, saying nothing while Maka cried to her heart's content. After Maka had finally dried her tears and began to sit up, Soul broke the silence that had been going on for the last hour. "So... You wanna tell me what's going on?", Soul asked. Although Maka would really rather go up to her room and comfort herself with a good book and some hot coco, she decided it'd be best not to worry her partner and sat down again. "I... I saw Kid kissing Liz today while I was going over to his house to surprise him since it was our anniversary...", Soul said nothing. Maka looked at his face to read what he was thinking, but she couldn't make anything of the expression. After awhile, Soul sat up suddenly and began walking towards Kid's house. Maka panicked, "Soul! Don't, please...", Soul stopped at the sound of his meister's voice. "This idiot...", he thought to himself. Soul turned around and lifted Maka up and carried her into their apartment and sat her down on their couch. Maka looked up at Soul and realized he was blushing. "Maka...", whispered Soul. "Be with me, I'll make you happy. I promise I won't hurt you, ever. Maka, I love you so, so much.", Maka was taken back at the sudden confession. Soul had never once indicated that he had feelings for her. "I don't want to see you cry anymore. Let me love you, Maka.", Soul was trembling. Maka looked down and began to cry again. "I... I can't, Soul, I still love Kid. I'm stupid, aren't I? I just saw my boyfriend kissing another girl and yet I still love him. I don't, I don't know what to do.", Soul stood there, listening to Maka. "DAMN IT, MAKA!", Soul walked over to the nearest wall and punched a hole right into it. "...You can't stay with him, I won't let you. Please...listen to me.", Soul desperately whispered. "I know, I know... I'll break up with him."
The next day came and Maka and Soul took their usual seats in the classroom. Professor Stein carried on with his everyday lecture. Maka glanced at Kid and found him staring at her. She quickly look down again. Class was quickly ended and everyone began to get up and leave. "Maka, can I talk to you?" Maka recognized that voice right away, Death the Kid. She felt Soul's hand slide over hers protectively and looked at him and smiled. "It's OK." Maka mouthed. She got up and stared Kid straight into his eyes and replied. "Yeah, sure." Maka replied coldly. Soul shivered, he had forgotten how scary Maka was when she meant business. He watched as Maka and Kid walked outside the classroom.
"So, I have these movie tickets that Liz gave to me today, Wanna go?" Liz...huh, thought Maka. "Actually... Kid, we need to talk.", At those words Kid stop dead in his tracks and turned to look at Maka. Kid had rarely seen Maka so serious while talking to him. "What is it?", Kid asked. "I think... we should break up." Maka could see Kid's expression change almost immediately. "What? Why? Is it me? I can change Maka. Don't leave me, please!", Kid begged. "Funny how yesterday you left me so easily yesterday while you were kissing Liz...", Maka thought. "...I saw you kissing Liz yesterday." With these words, all the color in Kid's face began to drain. Maka knew that Kid had been in love with Liz before they had dated... maybe he still is. "Maka... that was a mistake. The one I love is you. I love you, Maka Albarn.", With every word Kid was saying, Maka began to melt more and more. But she had seen this too many times as a child to know that Kid did not mean it. "You're just like my father." whispered Maka. Maka turned and began to take her leave.
