The sun was shining brightly as the group of 7 students made their way towards a large tree. It was lunch time, and Tsubaki had prepared a picnic for everyone to join. They all agreed that it was a great idea to have it on such a lovely day.
Liz and Patti spread the checkered red and white blanket over the green grass and sat down with everyone else. Tsubaki placed the picnic basket in the middle and opened to find lots of food within it. She passed out sandwiches to everyone and noticed she still had an extra one. She looked up from the basket and couldn't spot the blonde haired meister. She sighed as she reached for the drinks that were inside the picnic basket.
"Hey Soul, where's Maka? I thought she said she was gonna join us for the picnic?" She asked gently
Soul looked up from his half eaten sandwich and shrugged.
"She said she is gonna join us, but she had to stop at the library first." Tsubaki nodded her head and began to eat her sandwich. Liz looked at the door to the building then back at her friends. Everyone has noticed that Maka has been spending less time with them and that she hasn't been acting like herself ever since she was called to the Death room last week. They all tried to find out what Lord Death talked to her about, but she just said it was nothing and brushed away their concerns.
"Hey, guys. You've noticed Maka acting strange lately, right?" Asked Kid. Everyone nodded their head and turned towards Soul, because of course, he was her partner.
"Soul, did she tell you about what Lord Death talked to her about last week?" Questioned the bubbly Patti.
"Nope, the only thing she told me was that it was none of my buisness and that she needs space." He leaned forward a bit and whispered "Also, Blair told me that she was crying in her sleep. I tried to ask her about it but she just changes the subject or pretends like she didn't hear me." He leaned back again and took a sip out of his soda.
"Damn it! Why is she being so complicated? Doesn't she know that we're here for her?" Screamed a frustrated Liz.
"L-l-liz, of c-course she kn-knows that." Stuttered Crona.
"If she knows that then why won't she tell us her problem?" Soul slid over to Liz and patted her back.
"Calm down Liz, once she's ready she'll tell us." He looked over at Black*Star, he's been awfully quiet.
Black*Star looked at all of his friends and grinned.
"Hahahaha! Do not worry! Once she sees my Godliness she is bound to become over joyed!" He climbed the tree they were using for shade and gave a godly pose. Everyone sighed and continued their lunch.
Patti stopped coloring in her coloring book and giggled.
"Hey big sis, we should have a sleep over! Then Maka would probably tell us why she's so distant!" Liz looked at her little sister and smiled. It was a great idea!
Just as she was about to tell the gang about the plan, Maka appeared with a bunch of books. Kid got up from his spot and took the books out of her arms and gently placed them on the ground. Maka then took a seat between Kid and Tsubaki and happily ate her sandwich quietly while the others talked about random things.
"Hey, do you guys wanna have a sleep over at the mansion tonight?" Everyone looked at Liz as she continued to paint her nails with magenta nail polish. Kid had a confused look on his face. He didn't give her permission to have a sleep over tonight. He was going to cancel it but it was too late, everyone already agreed and thought it was a great idea. Maka only shrugged her shoulders and continued to eat quietly.

At the end of the day, Maka went to The Death room and went up to Lord Death.
"Lord Death, have you gotten any news on Mama or Papa?" She asked. Last week she has been told that her mother got in a terrible accident and is lost somewhere in the mountains probably starving to death or something. Her father was extremely worried about her mother so he left to go find her. He didn't tell anyone he left, he just left a letter for Lord Death.
"Sorry Maka, but there is still no news yet. But don't worry, once I hear something i'll contact you immediately." Maka nodded her head and began to turn around when Lord Death placed one of his fingers on her shoulder.
"Maka, I know you want this matter to be private, but your friends are really worried. Kid keeps asking me these questions and it's really difficult to hide things from him. I suggest you tell them about the situation you are in right now, it might help." He gave a smile under the mask, but of course, she could not see it.
"I'll take that into consideration, thank you." She bowed and left the room.
Maka walked outside the building to find Soul waiting for her at the front.
"There you are, hurry up. We have to be at Kid's place in 3 hours and I still have to pick out my top 20 video games." Maka swiftly moved her leg over the vehicle and wrapped her arms around Soul's chest. She placed her head gently on his back and began to think about her parents.

All the girls were found in the Thompsons room while the boys chatted in the living room. Liz said she wanted everyone to look sexy since there were some guys with them.
"Liz, it's only them. It's not like they're a bunch of hot guys that are swim suit models." Stated Maka.
"Oh my gosh Maka! Don't play dumb with us, we know you like Kid. Tsubaki likes Black*Star, Patti likes Crona and I like Soul!" Liz screamed whispered only for the 4 girls in the room to hear.
"L-liz! That's not true!" Maka tried to argue, but was failing miserably beacause of the redness in her cheeks.
"Maka, just trust me on this ok."
"Fine." Maka gave in.
Liz thought over her plan that she thought of this afternoon. While they try to convince her to tell them about her conversation with Lord Death, she is also gonna try to hook everyone up.
Liz took out 4 outfits from the closet and set it on her bed. Everyone one looked at it and Maka and Tsubaki raised an eyebrow at the older sister.
"These are our pajamas! Also we're gonna put some make up on!" They all got to work on their outfits and appearance for a whole hour.
It was now dinner time and the girls came down the stairs one by one.
First was Tsubaki, she had a green tank top on with fluffy orange shorts.
Second was Patti, she had a pink tank top that had a giraffe on it and red shorts.
Next was Liz, she had a dark blue tank top on with light blue shorts.
Last was Maka, she had a white tank top with black shorts and a heart necklace.
The boys stared at the girls and started to drool. Well Black*Star and Soul started to drool.
This will be an interesting night.
