Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater or the song, Misery Business by Paramore.
Maka just got into a break-up with Soul because she found out he was cheating on her with Liz. Who does she go to for help? Her best guy friend Kid. But shortly after that, they started dating. Maka thought that he was better for her than Soul. Soul then realized he still liked Maka and Liz noticed so she broke up with him. They would barely talk to each other or the rest of their group.
One night everyone was invited to a party by Jackie and Kim. Well, as you can probably predict, the whole gang was there. During one section in the party, everyone was doing karaoke. People formed bands and performed songs. When it was Maka's turn, she decided to sing about Soul and Liz. She got together Kid, Patty, and Tsubaki. She was the lead singer. Kid played the guitar, Patty played the drums, and Tsubaki did bass. They all went upstage and got ready. Maka let her hair loose. As soon as the drum beat, she opened her eyes and started rocking out.
I'm in the business of misery; let's take it from the top
She's got a body like an hourglass that's ticking like a clock.
She looked at Liz as she said that.
It's a matter of time, before we all run out
When I thought he was mine, she caught him by the mouth
Maka pointed her finger to her mouth.
I waited eight long months, she finally set him free
I told him I couldn't lie; he was the only one for me
Maka's eyes turned to Soul.
Two weeks and we, caught on fire
She's got it out for me, but I wore the biggest smile
She put on a big grin on her face.
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
Maka pointed down at Soul.
But God does it feel so good
'cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could then you know you would
'cause God it just feels so
It just feels so good
She ran a hand through her hair and looked at Liz the whole time during this verse.
Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change
Once a whore you're nothing more I'm sorry that'll never change
Maka nodded her head at Liz and gave her a look.
And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged
I'm sorry honey but I passed it up now look this way
Her face grew mad and she banged her head. Liz just looked away with her arms crossed.
Well there's a million other girls who do it just like you
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who
Maka raised an eye brow.
They want it what they like
It's easy if you do it right
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!
Maka crossed her arm across her body as a sign of denial. Patty beat down on the drums and smiled. She enjoyed this even though it was directed at her sister.
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
Maka turned her head to the side, making her hair hide her face.
But God does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him right now
And if you could then you know you would
'Cause God it just feels so...
Maka put her head down and tapped her feet. The band quieted down. Maka walked up to Kid and sang to him while he was playing.
It just feels so good...
She stared at Kid with sad eyes.
I watched his wildest dreams come true
Maka gestured to the crowd.
Not one of them involving you
After she sang that she went to Tsubaki and sang next to her.
Just watching my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them, involving
She rocked out and walked in front of the stage shaking her head. The band was playing as hard as they could. Maka walked back forth on the stage. Looking serious in some parts.
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
She went back to the front of the stage and Kid jumped over the drums.
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
Maka looked Liz in the eye and smirked.
But God does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could then you know you would
'Cause God it just feels so...
Maka sang into her mic with force. Then she smiled at Soul and Liz. She walked backwards and turned so her back was facing everyone.
It just feels so good
Everybody cheered. Liz left and Soul just stared at her. Maka went up to Kid, Patty and Tsubaki and thanked them. Patty talked about how cool it was playing like that and left after her sister. Tsubaki nodded and got off the stage and explained to the shocked BlackStar how she learned to play. Maka hugged Kid and said bye. Maka was walking toward the door then an arm stopped her.
"Hey." Soul said and stepped in front of her.
"Oh. Hey." Maka said nervously.
"What was that?" He asked normally. Maka hesitated to say something, so instead she got straight to the point.
"What do you want, Soul?"
"Nothing. Just wanted to talk."
"Well, we had a nice talk. Now bye." She walked off but then Soul grabbed her hand. Maka turned around.
"Now what?" She asked aggravated.
"...Sorry that I made you feel that way." Soul apologized. They stared at each other for a couple of seconds. Then Maka smiled.
"Don't worry about it." And with that, she turned around and left.
