Maka's POV
I was walking the lane. It was empty. I was returning from a shop. Actually, I was shopping with Soul but he said that he forgot something and returned to the shop. And I decided to take a shorter path and turned to this lane. Suddenly a big gray dog appeared from the corner. It was running at me and barking. I immediately stopped. My heart was beating very fast. The dog stopped too but it continued to bark. I took a step back and then I looked with horror at the dog who began to walk to me. I took another step back and the dog began to walk faster. I gulped and stopped. So the dog did. It barked at me a few more times.
I've been regretting already that I didn't stay near the shop and didn't wait for Soul. I was alone. In the empty lane. With the big angry dog. Soul would never turn to that lane cause he would be trying to catch up with me and he knew that I would never go that way. Fear began to rise and I was sure that the dog felt it. The dog moved again. I gasped and tired to shield from it with a shopping bag that was in my hand. The dog was approaching. I already saw its teeth that wanted to rip me apart.
Suddenly I heard steps behind me and the next second I was shield from the dog by somebody.
"S-soul?" I asked when realization of what happened came to me. Thank goodness!
A few moments after another man ran from the corner.
"Boxer, to me!" the dog turned to him and a few seconds later it was leashed.
"Maka, are you alright?" Soul asked, when he turned to me.
I gave him a nod, but the whole my body was still shaken. He hugged me. He was trying to comfort me.
"I'm so sorry" the man who was the owner of this dog came to us "He ran off and I tried to find him for the last two hours! I'm really sorry for what happened"
"It's ok" I said with shaking voice.
"If I can do anything for you..."
"No, thank you" I smiled weakly "I will be ok for now"
When the man left I buried my face in Soul's chest. I began to calm down from what happened.
"You're lucky that I got here in time" he said.
"Yeah... Thank you, Soul" I wrapped my hands around his waist.
"Just don't go to places like that by yourself anymore. Ok?" he smiled and took the bag from me "Let's go home. I'll make you a cup of tea and I think I'll be cooking the dinner today"
"Why?" I looked at him with surprise.
"You need to take a break"
We began walking to the main road.
