Just a short story which came to my mind while I was laying in bed with a flu. Enjoy!
I don't own Soul Eater.
"I love you"
Death the Kid looked at Soul with shock. 'Well, that surly is unexpected' he thought. Since morning Soul was walking with an expression of serious deliberation, but Kid would never guess that it was about him. When Soul asked him to go to the library with him he didn't consider it strange in anyway, thinking he just needed some help with his homework. He regained his composure.
"And?" he asked with faked boredom.
"I want to go out with you." Said Soul with a calm voice, but Kid could see that his hands were shaking a little.
"No"
"Why?" said Soul less calmly. He probably did expect rejection, but the boy's lack of emotion was unnerving him.
"Because you're asymmetrical" said Kid and made his way out of the library not even looking back at the boy, whose mouth was hung open in disbelievement.

"I love you" said Soul stubbornly. They were in Kid's room. Apparently Liz and Patty held a party, much to Kid's disgust. These people were ruining his symmetrical house! He escaped to his room, but he wasn't alone. White haired boy followed his footsteps. Of course Kid's trained senses spotted him immediately, but he let this be.
"You said that already. And you didn't change into a symmetrical person so the answer is still no."
"I could not change for you."
"Oh? Doesn't that mean your love is too weak?" said Shinigami's son a little interested in Soul's answer.
"No. It means I love you too much"
"Sorry, I don't see any logic in that. Care to explain?"
"Gladly. If I changed it wouldn't be me. It would be a fake. And if you loved the fake more then me that would make me jealous, wouldn't it?" said Soul completely serious.
Kid actually laughed at that. That boy was really intriguing.
"Sorry, but if you don't find a symmetrical way to persuade me, my answer won't change."

"I love you" this time Kid didn't even look up at Soul from his book. Which didn't mean he wasn't surprised. Three months passed since Soul's second confession, and Kid thought he gave up.
"But you're still asymmetrical. Did you find some miraculous way to persuade me?" he said doubtfully.
"Precisely"
"I'd be happy to hear it"
Soul took a deep breath.
"Well, I love you, right?"
"Right" said Kid missing the point.
"And you don't want to return my feelings because of your strange infatuation with symmetry, right?"
"Yes"
"So it makes things asymmetrical between us. Only if you love me the same amount I do love you, this situation will have its symmetry." Said Soul with an unsure smile.
Kid looked at him with the same emotionless face which he always wore. Then his lips started to form a grin.
"Congratulations! You found a loophole I didn't notice." With that said Kid stood up from the couch in Maka's and Soul's living room. He made his way towards a startled Soul and took his hand pulling the weapon after him. Their friends were too busy to notice their departure.
"Where are we going?" asked Soul a bit shakily.
"Isn't it obvious?" said Kid looking at him like he was an idiot. "We're going to your room to make out!"
Review's make a day!
