Hello there. :) So for this story, I'm going to try my hardest to make it LONG, and AWESOME! :) I hope you guys enjoy it! Follow, favourite, or review and I'll give you a SHOUT-OUT!
Maka looked over at Soul and smiled. "One whole year," she said, her feet dangling over the edge of the bridge. Soul nodded and felt the warm breeze on his face strengthen. Today was Soul and Maka's one year anniversary. They were sitting on a bridge that crossed a small river and led to the beach. They've been planning this date for a month in advance. Maka turned to Soul.
"I love you," she said, "I feel like that term is so abused, but, I really do."
Soul laughed and replied with, "I love you to, Maka." Maka leaned her head on Soul's shoulder and sighed. She felt as if the moment couldn't get any better. While she was dreamily staring out into the sunset happily, Soul was nervously biting his lip and trying to keep his cool. He wanted didn't know what to do. Not only was someone else waiting for him today, but he forgot their anniversary! He looked around hastily for the perfect reason to leave. He had to get out of there. It was imperative. He quickly pulled out his phone and looked at it.
"Aw, shit, Maka. I have to go! My…Black*Star needs me to go with him to…help him. He's…about to…die, or something," he stuttered. Maka gave him a worried look.
"Your Black*Star, huh?" she asked, and gave him a smirk, "Want me to go help?"
"No…I got it," Soul said, and got up. He pulled a black tee shirt on and hurried off in some random direction. He looked at his watch. Shit! If I'm late, Liz'll kill me! He thought. He sprinted down the block and managed to make his way back to the apartment. He figured that Maka would be on her way home by now, and that he should make it quick. He knew that Liz and Maka were in a fight, so there was no way of them getting into contact with each other about what Soul was about to do. Soul grabbed his hoodie off the rack and sprayed himself with Axe before running out the door again. He sprinted down the street until he at last reached Liz and Patty's apartment. Gasping for air, Soul knocked on the door and tried to regain his confidence. Liz opened the door and grinned.
"Hey Soul! What took you so long?" she asked, motioning for him to come into her room, "I missed you. How long are we going to have to keep doing this in secret?!" Soul sighed and sat down in one of the comfy red chairs in their living room.
"I don't know, Liz…I really want to just break it off and make it official but…" Soul's voice trailed off. Liz furrowed her brow.
"But what? Do you like her more than me?" she asked, trying not to be hostile. Soul shook his head.
"No, it's not that, it's just…I don't know if I'm quite comfortable cheating like this. Lying to Maka is just…hard. She's too smart for me!" Soul explained, taking a cup of tea from Liz. She nodded.
"I understand. But it's hard on me, too, y'know. I mean, it's not exactly a piece of cake, lying to everybody and sneaking around," Liz replied, lowering her eyelids and taking a sip of tea.
Soul rubbed his eyes and sighed, "I just think it'd be easier if I didn't have to break up with her. That way, I could date both of you and she wouldn't have to find out!" Liz sighed. She made her way over to Soul and rested a hand on his shoulder. She sat down on the arm of the chair and smirked at him.
"That's fine by me…as long as you still want to play," she said. Soul gave her a sharky smile and kissed her.
Maka sat down in her chair and stared at the television. I wonder when Soul's coming back, she thought. Blair meowed loudly and rested in Maka's lap.
"Maka-chan! I'm BORED. Where's Soul-kun?" she asked, sprawling out on her lap. Maka scratched behind Blair's ear and smiled.
"He'll be back soon," she explained, "he's off with Black*Star." Blair grinned and nodded her furry head.
Then Maka chuckled, "He's just gotta save Black*Star's life again or something."
Or so she thought.
The next day, Soul woke up in his bed, drooling. I hope it's a cool morning, he thought. When he saw Blair walking in the hallway, he thought of the time he and Maka tried to take her soul. Then he remembered his dreaded lie: cool guys don't cheat on their partners. He sighed and drew the covers up over his head. Guess I'm not that cool after all, he thought. He cringed at the thought.
"Soul! Wake up! It's time for breakfast!" Maka called as she made her way to his bedside. Soul put his pillow over his head and groaned. Maka cocked her head.
"Soul? Come on! It's the weekend! Let's go do something!" Maka exclaimed, fighting to rip the sheets off of him. Soul was finally dragged out of bed and onto the floor. Blair made her way into the room and giggled.
"Hey there sleepy head!" she said, winking. Soul groaned and rubbed his face.
"I'm…actually busy today…" Soul said, pulling his jeans on.
"Oh?" Maka said, cocking her head again.
"Yeah…Kid is having a sleepover and he wanted me to come," he explained, pulling a shirt on over his snowy hair. Maka sighed.
"Will you at least have breakfast with me…?" Maka asked, looking disappointed.
"Of course!" Soul agreed, and stood up. They went to the kitchen and ate breakfast together. Maka yakked endlessly and Soul guiltily pretended to listen. Blair just ate and meowed every now and then.
"Is something wrong?" Maka asked, but Soul wasn't paying attention.
"MAKA-CHOP!" Maka screamed, bashing Soul's head in with a fairly large book. Soul face planted into the table and sighed. There was a huge dent in his dome. Maka put the book away and sighed heavily.
"Soul, were you even listening?" she asked, continuing to eat.
"No, not really…" he replied, and slowly rubbed his pained cranium.
"What's wrong? You've been acting weird lately…" she let her voice trail off. Soul sighed and finished his toast.
"Nothing's wrong; I've just been tired lately," he explained, and put on his yellow letterman jacket.
"Leaving?" Maka asked without looking up.
"Yeah…I'll see you tomorrow, alright?" he replied, halfway out the door.
"Alright…" she said, and sighed as she turned to Blair.
"What's wrong, Maka-chan?" Blair asked, giving her a worried look. Maka shook her head.
"It's just…Soul has been acting really weird around me lately. He didn't even give me a kiss goodnight yesterday! And I'm pretty sure he forgot our anniversary," Maka said, playing around with her fork, "Blair, I don't know what to do! Ever since Liz and I got into that fight, he's been distant…" Blair rubbed against Maka's arm.
"It's okay, Maka-chan! Things will be better soon! I'm sure he's just on his boy-period!" Blair meowed.
"Guys have that?" Maka asked, lifting one eyebrow.
"Well of course! Only they don't have blood, just…hormones, y'know?" Blair explained, lifting a paw to give it a good licking. Maka nodded and cleared her plate. I just wonder what Soul's really up to, sometimes…she thought.
Soul bolted down the street to try and make it to Liz's on time for once. He panted as he knocked on her front door. Liz opened it up and stared at him.
"There you are!" she exclaimed, "Come on in." Liz led Soul through her apartment and motioned to a chair.
"Sit, stay for awhile," she joked. Soul sat down and took a load off.
"So how's it going with your other boyfriend?" Soul asked, jutting his thumb in the direction of a perfectly symmetrical picture of Death the Kid. Liz thumbed her nose and grunted.
"Oh, him. Yeah…we're pretty much over by the looks of it. Nothing official yet, but I can see he's pretty much moved on by now," she said with a complete lack of emotion, "besides, I would rather be with you, Soul." Soul smirked, and started laughing. He motioned her to come closer, and he kissed her directly on the lips. Well, it lasted an entire two seconds before Maka busted through the door.
"What the hell's going on here?!" she demanded, a shocked Blair trailing several feet behind her. Soul stuttered and stammered until he was out of breath.
"Soul's cheating!" Blair gasped, "I can't believe Soul's cheating! You said cool guys don't cheat on their meisters!" Soul stuttered some more before Liz cut him off.
"Soul loves me now!" she blurted. Blair gasped some more.
"I…uhh…" Soul said, sweating a little, no-a lot. Maka narrowed her eyes.
"So that was why. How long were you cheating on me?! A month? Three months? THE WHOLE DAMN TIME?!" Maka shouted, her fists clenched.
"No! It wasn't like that! I swear!" Soul tried to defend himself.
"Ha ha, nice try. I know what you've been doing now! You made that thing about Black*Star up, didn't you? DIDN'T YOU?!" she screamed. Now she was full-out raging against Soul.
"Okay! I did it! But I'm not fucking proud of it, alright?!" Soul shouted, "I just didn't wanna hurt you!"
"You fucking idiot! You hurt me now worse than you ever could just plain breaking up with me!" Maka countered. It was as if Blair and Liz just disappeared and Soul and Maka were left behind to scream at each other.
"Well I'm sorry that I'm not allowed to have feelings for another girl!" Soul yelled. He knew it was a dumb argument, but for some reason it just worked for him.
"DICKHEAD!" Maka screamed.
"FUCKFACE!" Soul yelled right back at her.
"COCK SUCKER!" Maka was pleased with that one.
"MOTHER FUCKER!" Soul didn't care what she had to say, he just wanted to have the last word.
"ASSHOLE!" Maka was close to tears.
"CUNT!" That did it. Soul dropped the C-word on her, and it just made everything ten times worse than it could have ever been if he hadn't. Maka's eyes welled up with tears and she began bawling. She sprinted out of Liz's apartment, leaving the three to stare at each other.
"Way to go, dipshit," Blair said, narrowing her menacing cat eyes, "I hope you're happy now. I hope you have EVERYTHING you could've EVER wanted. But now Maka will never forgive you." She growled.
"Bitch," she added for dramatic effect, then left to go comfort Maka. Soul stared at Liz, and Liz stared at the floor. Everything was silent.
"You wanna go get some ice cream?" Liz asked, shrugging.
