Maka closed her book as she yawned. She placed the book on her side table and looked at her bedroom door. She then looked at the clock. It was nearly midnight. She sighed and stood up.
"Geez, I'm hungry…" Maka said as she went out and walked her way down to the first floor.
Hey, to all you guys doing there… My name's Maka. Maka Albarn. 15. Nothing much I can say about myself. I'm not that popular in school. I guess my name would just be recognized if they talked about the honors in my school. If you ask my classmates, they would say I'm a bookworm… nerd… and a tomboy. Those are all true. And I wouldn't lie if I had a tomboyish attitude. After all, girl stuff isn't really my stuff. Seriously…
Maka scratched the back of her head as she walked along the hallway of the second floor. It was awfully quiet around the house tonight.
Mom and dad are on a trip together. They could relax a little. They do deserve it.
She hopped down the stairs while holding the banister. She then started to hear noises. As her feet landed on the even floor, she saw a blue-haired boy sitting on the couch playing video games on the screen. Maka raised an eyebrow as she went to the kitchen counter, which was just opposite the living room.
"Can't sleep?" the boy asked.
"Uh, yeah… How about you…? I see you're really busy playing video games all this time" Maka said as she started to pull some water from the refrigerator.
"Uhuh! You think a guy like me could just accept that you all got the high scores in these games? Ha! Guess again!" the boy laughed. Maka rolled her eyes as she opened the chips she got from the cupboard.
"I'm gonna surpass all! Hahahaha!" he laughed again. Maka sweat dropped.
See that boy right there? Yep. I'm stuck with him. His name is Black star. He's my adopted brother. My mom and dad took him in while I was still young when his parents died. Even though this guy has a large ego and an attention problem, we do get along at times. I treat him like a real brother. You could even say that my boyish attitude was influenced by him at some point. Well, once you get to know him, he's really a nice person to be with.
"Well, I'm going up now…" Maka crumple the empty bag of chips and threw it in the trash can.
"Yeah… G'night…" Black Star remained focus on the game.
"Night… And you better not oversleep, we still have school tomorrow…" Maka said as she climbed upstairs. Once she entered her bed room, she slumped on her bed turning off the light on her lamp.
*beep**beep*
"Urgh…" Maka opened one eye as she felt the sun hit her face harshly. She looked at her alarm clock. It was 5:30 in the morning. She hit the snooze button and covered her face with a pillow.
"I guess I can still sleep for a while…" Maka whispered to herself.

"Aaah…. Sweet, sweeeeeeet silence…"
…
…
…
…
"GOOD MORNING MAKA! HAHAHAHAHA!" Black Star's obnoxious voice spread across Maka's silent room. He slammed the door open with his oh so awesome foot.
…
"I spoke to soon…" Maka removed the pillow and lazily looked at her brother.
"What do you want, Black Star?" Maka asked.
"Well, it's not a want… It's a need actually…" he looked up the ceiling. "Oh, and you said I shouldn't oversleep, so here I am!" he grinned at Maka goofily. Maka rolled her eyes.
"I did say that, but I didn't say you have to barge in my room to prove it!" Maka threw her pillow to Black Star, which he dodged it smoothly. Maka didn't like being disturbed, especially when it involves sleeping.
"Fine, what do you need?" Maka scratched her head.
"I need breakfast" Black Star bluntly said.
"Oh, sure you do… Cook it yourself, idiot!" Maka lied down in her bed again, covering her body with a blanket.
"Ok… Don't blame me, if the house got burned…" Black Star turned his back away preparing to exit her room when Maka miraculously got up and went past him.
"Fine, I'll cook it…" Maka stormed off the room. Black Star smirked in his victory.
"Black Star, you are one awesome and smart guy" he arrogantly said to himself.
Black Star looked at Maka as she continued to cook their breakfast. He chewed the rice on his plate as he looked at her from top to toe. Maka had this feeling that he was staring at her. She could feel his eyes on her.
"Dude, what's your problem?" Maka looked at him unenthusiastically.
"Oh… Um… I was just wondering" Black Star turned back to his plate. Maka raised an eyebrow.
"Are you really a girl?" Black Star asked. At the end of the question, Maka covered her mouth to stop her laughter.
"What kind of question is that?" Maka wiped off the tear forming on the corner of her eye.
"Of course I am. Have your eyes checked" Maka shook her head.
"I might do that as well…" Black Star shrugged. Maka's expression turned to a little bit annoyed.
"What do you mean by that?" Maka looked at him.
"If I was a normal person, I would mistake you as a boy" Black Star pointed his fork to her.
"So, what's your point?" Maka placed her hands on her hips.
"My point is that I think you should at least try to act like a girl" Black Star placed his fork down the table. "I mean… I see people always laugh at you…" Black Star looked away. Maka's eyes softened. She turned off the stove and sat down on a chair, but facing away Black Star.
"I know you only have a few friends… So I think you should at least try to fit in…" he said.
"Don't get me the wrong way; I just hate seeing you being picked on like that" he sighed. Maka smiled but the sadness in her eyes still remained.
"I know that… But even if I tried, they won't still stop… And I don't want to be someone I'm not… It's better to be hated for who you are, than to be loved for who you're not…" Maka sighed. Black Star looked at her.
"Thank you though. For worrying" Maka looked at him and smiled sweetly. Black Star sighed and gave up.
"Well, if that's what you want… It's fine for me…" Black Star grinned goofily. Maka smiled.
"Well, we better stop with these boohoo stories of mine, we better prepare for school now" Maka said as she started eating breakfast.
They dressed for school and prepared for it.
The two went outside their house to go to DWMA. Black Star led the way. As the two prepared to cross the street, a fast approaching bus went past by Black Star and was almost hit.
"Black Star! Are you insane? Are you trying to get yourself killed? That bus almost hit you!" Maka was ready to scold Black Star.
Black Star shrugged. "You don't need to look both ways when you're as awesome as me. C'mon Let's go!" Black Star motioned Maka to follow him. Maka just rolled her eyes and followed him. They walked and walked until they finally reached the school.
They walked down the hallway which was unusually crowded.
"What the hell is up with today?" Black Star and Maka pushed through a few people.
"Hey, BS, I'll go ahead now, k?" Maka separated from Black Star.
"Yeah, try not to get squashed with your small body" Black Star let out a mock before Maka could walk away. A nerve appeared on Maka's forehead.
"You're lucky I can't get a book from my bag with all these people…" Maka turned to her left where there aren't any people.
"Geez… Why are there so many students this day?" Maka adjusted her grip on her body bag.
"Excuse me, but may I ask you something?" a male voice from Maka's back asked her. Maka turned to her back to see the boy. When she looked at the boy, she saw a dark-haired man with 3 white stripes on the left side of his fair.
Upon looking at him, Maka felt the chills. She felt her face heat up. Her mouth hung open slightly as she looked at him.
"Y-yeah?" was Maka could all say.
"Where is the classroom of Crescent Moon?" he asked. Maka pointed to the direction.
"Uh, just walk to that direction and you'll find the room…" Maka answered.
The boy looked at the direction first. "Thank you" the boy then walked to the direction.
"Uh, yeah…" Maka continued to stare at him. She then snapped and looked away.
"What the hell? Why am I feeling this? I feel my face is all red… It's the first time I've felt something like this…" Maka thought as she held her chest to feel her racing out. She shook her head.
"I need to go to class now…" Maka ran to her classroom. A few steps and she already arrived there. She sat in her seat and remained quiet.
"Good morning, Maka!" a familiar voice greeted her. Maka looked at her side and saw three girls smiling at her.
"Oh, hey. G'moring, Tsubaki, Liz and Patty! How are you guys doing?" Maka smiled back.
"Super great!" Patty energetically replied.
"And you?" Tsubaki asked sweetly.
"Fine, just fine" Maka answered. "Hey, you saw the crowd earlier? What happened?"
"Well, there's a new kid on the block… His name is Kid Death… He's Principal Death's son" Liz said, as usual, she's filled with sources. Just as she said that, their class adviser, Ms. Marie came.
"Ok, class! Good morning!" she greeted.
"Good morning!" the students greeted back.
"Today we have a new classmate and I know you're quite familiar with him by now" Ms. Marie looked at the door and motioned someone to come in. Just as she did this, a boy came in with black hair and 3 white stripes at the left side.
Maka's eyes widened. "He's the guy from earlier!"
"A pleasant morning, everyone! I am Kid Death. You may call me Kid. I hope we all get along together just fine" Kid then smiled.
"Ok! Thank you for that introduction, Kid! You may take your seat over there!" Ms. Marie said. Kid then took his seat. Maka looked away as he sat.
"Ok, let's start the lesson for today!" Ms. Marie then started writing something on the board. Maka stayed afloat. She didn't focus that much now that she is wondering why she is feeling that way. The class ended, and Maka stayed quiet. Liz, Tsubaki and Patty approached her.
"Hey, you seem quiet. What's wrong?" Tsubaki asked. Maka smiled in reply.
Just as she was about to say something, Patty interrupted.
"Are you fine? Do you have a fever? I think you need to see George!" Patty said. With that, Maka raised an eyebrow.
She looked at Liz. "Who the hell is George?"
Liz chuckled. "Oh, don't mind Patty. George is her giraffe stuff toy" she said. Maka sweat dropped.
"So, what's wrong?" Liz asked again. Maka sighed.
"Have you ever felt something that, you can't get a person off of your mind… And you don't even know him that much!" Maka scratched her head. The three looked at each other and laughed.
"What!?" Maka glared at them.
"We're sorry, Maka. We just didn't expect you to be like that" Tsubaki wiped a tear off of the corner of her eye.
"To be like what!?" Maka looked at them.
"Well, looks like our little tomboy girl is growing to be a girl" Liz said as she crossed her arms.
"Wow, thank you very much" Maka sarcastically answered.
"What she means to say is that we think you like that person you're thinking off" Tsubaki said.
"W-what?" Maka's mouth hung slightly open.
"Haha! Maka likes someone! Maka likes so-!" Maka covered her mouth.
"Hey! Stop that! I'm not liking someone! Not in this lifetime!" Maka said in denial.
"Whooo… Denial" Liz looked away. Maka rolled her eyes.
"C'mon Maka. Don't deny. There is going to be a point in your life that you're going to like someone" Tsubaki smiled as she said this. Maka sighed.
"Well, what do you guys suggest I do with this 'like'?" Maka looked away.
"You see. Then you admitted it indirectly" Liz giggled along with her sister.
"Ok, Liz. Seriously, you have got to stop putting me in the hot spot" Maka looked at her unenthusiastically.
"Well, just a suggestion" Tsubaki diverted Maka's attention to her. "You could at least send a letter of appreciation to him"
"A letter…?" Maka looked at her.
"Yeah, and drop it in his bag" Liz suggested again.
"Drop it in his bag?" Maka asked.
"Yeah! And ask him to meet you somewhere so you could talk in private! Oh! That would be so romantic!" Patty suggested more as she looked dreamily.
"Seriously, guys… You expect me to do that mushy stuff?" Maka asked.
"Well, we're not forcing you" Liz shrugged her shoulders.
"It's your choice if you want to ignore him or make yourself visible around him" Tsubaki said. Maka sighed. She stood up and gathered her things.
"Well, thanks for the advise… But I think I'm going home now" Maka said as she turned her back.
"Bye!" Liz and Tsubaki waved their hands at her.
"Hey, what about George?" Patty asked.
"Uuuh…" Maka sweat-dropped again.
"Just joking! He'll be fine without seeing you! But it'll be so cool if you would meet him!" Patty said.
"Patty!" Liz scolded. Maka smiled at Patty's childish nature and left the classroom. She waited for Black Star and the two of them set off for home.
At home, Maka read her lessons and studied for the night. But what Liz, Tsubaki and Patty suggested to her kept popping up on her mind. She closed her book and looked at her desk.
"Well… It couldn't hurt if I try, right?"
I hope you guys like it. I don't really think it's that great but I think its ok. I don't know if I'll continue this but I'll figure the plot out. If I get good reviews, my mind will work this story out, I'll continue this. Reviews are appreciated as long as they aren't flames.
