I own some manga volumes, some chocolate, some crayons and a laptop. I do not own Soul Eater.
IT ALL STARTED WITH A COOKIE
Let your jealousy out and everything will be made simpler.
"What an odd fortune…" remarked the scythe as his pointy teeth crunched the fortune cookie to bits.
Soul mentally added Justin to his list of Death Scythes he despised. Justin was wailing on the golem while all Soul could do was hold his injured meister in his arms. He felt so useless. He couldn't protect Maka…
Justin opened the coffin lid and smiled at Maka. She was not amused. He lifted her out and she blushed like mad.
"I, I could have gotten out on my own." He smiled obliviously and Maka couldn't tell if he had understood or not. Justin pulled out his headphones, startling Maka. She had been told he never did that, not even for Lord Death himself.
"Are you alright Miss?"
"I-"
"She'll be fine. I can take care of her from here." Soul put his hand on Maka's shoulder protectively.
Justin drove away on his motorcycle and Maka waved goodbye as the dust cloud disappeared in the distance. She whipped around to glare at Soul who shrugged and refused to look her in the eyes. Before she could give him a scolding Liz, Patty and Tsubaki came rushing over.
"That was Justin Law!" Squealed the other girls with enthusiasm Maka saved for a challenging test or particularly interesting novel.
"Yeah, I know. So?"
"So? He's totally hot and a death scythe!" Liz bent down to talk to the shorter girl, making her seem almost condescending.
"Um, Liz," countered Kid quickly "he's not that great. I mean I'm a good-looking shinigami and you don't freak out about me." Liz rolled her eyes.
"And I think he liked you Maka," said Liz with a wink.
"He seemed genuinely interested in you," said Tsubaki, smiling.
"He smitten yay!" screamed Patty. The boys, irritated, grumbled at the girls' interest in the weapon.
"Come on Maka! He put you in a coffin!"
"I don't remember you attempting to stop him so don't even go there." Said Maka offhandedly as she stirred Kraft macaroni in a pot.
"I just don't like him."
"Soul, he is offering to give you a lesson on fighting without a meister! Plus he saved our butts today." Soul cringed at those words. Maka didn't know how badly they stung her weapon or she wouldn't have said them.
