The blood felt warm running down his head. He could hear them laughing more every time his head hit the locker. "Stop this now!" A girl's voice cried out. He peeked one eye open. But could only see the dirty blonde pigtails. He thought he had hit his head hard enough to start hallucinating because there was no way she had shown up to help him of all people. "you're new hey chicka, but let me give you a little lesson on how things work at this school. He is trash, and trash needs to be taking care of or it starts to stink and build up, so we are taking care of the trash before it gets too big. You are pretty you shouldn't worry yourself with trash like this you should just go back the way you came. If you wait till we are done, we could even hang out" the jock winked at the girl "and why would I want to hang out with low life perverted ass hats who have STI's like you" Maka throw back
"you just made the wrong move little girl" one of the jocks said picking up Maka by her shirt "I wouldn't do that if I were you." Maka said a devilish smile spreading on her face. "and why not?" The jock said getting in her face "because I do not take kindly to people touching my sister" The jock froze at that voice. "And I'm sure you are not threatening my girlfriend, right." The jock placed Maka on the ground slowly. "Oh this is that Maka, I didn't kno-" his sentence was cut off when Maka kicked him in his jewels and he feel to the ground. The people in front of Soul started to blur all he could see was an electric blue. Strange.
"my dick" the jock cried "I think you should leave before your dick is the least of your worries." The boy with blue hair hissed and the jock and his buddies left. Maka turned to the boy bleeding on the floor. "Mister, are you alright, do you need help?" Maka asked kneeling in front of him. Her green eyes sparkling with concern. Soul felt flattered that she cared enough to be worried. "I believe his name is Soul, this is quite normal for him." The black hair Kid said "come on Maka we should just leave him" Maka turned fast to the other boy "what if this was you? Or Kid? Or even me? Would you leave me? Would you want me to leave you?" the girl hissed and the blue hair guy back down. Then it all went black.
Soul woke up to a white celling. He sighed he was in the nurse's office. "evening Soul." The nurse said nodding to the boy. "how bad was it today?" Soul asked the nurse shrugged "you had worse, no concussion this time just a cut." She said "oh and there's a girl waiting for you, she brought you in and dint want to leave until she knew you were awake. Do you want me to let her in?" The nurse asked Soul nodded at this. Maka walked into the room and the nurse left.
"are you okay?" Maka asked her voice laced with worry and concern. "fine, why did you wait for me to wake up, and why did you help me? You are like the most popular girl in school and I'm-" Soul stopped himself from talking the jocks words rushing back to him. Trash. "would you have wanted me to leave you be? And not help you?" She countered Soul narrowed his eyes "you are avoiding the question. Soul said accusingly "no I answered you question with a question of my own, any ways would you like a ride home?" Maka asked "what about school." Soul asked Maka deadpanned "it's 6:30 schools be out for 4 hours." She replied. "you stayed here for four hours to make sure I was okay? What were you dared or something?" Soul asked there was no way she could care about a no body like him. "no I wasn't dared, and yes I waited four hours to make sure you were okay, so did you want a ride home?" Soul thought for a minute "no I'll walk" Soul started to get up and through on his hoody "than at least let me walk with you" Maka insisted "and let you commit social suicide not a chance. Um thank you for helping me I guess." Soul said before running out the nurse's door. He only slowed his pace when he saw Kid and Blackstar standing by the schools only exit.
Soul put his hood up and head down hoping to be avoided by the two boys waiting on Maka. But before Soul could reach the door a hand was placed on his should Soul froze waiting for pain. "Yo, Soul is Maka still back there, she missed work today." Kid asked "I-I-I am not s-sure, she was in the nurse's office when I left so-sorry" Soul Said trying to think of a way out "hey man you don't have to be scared we aren't going to hurt you, what kind of God would I be if I hurt my followers" Blackstar said Soul jumped at his loud voice "excuse me." Soul said before running out the door. He only looked back one to see Maka catching up to the other two boys.
Soul couldn't help but to look at Maka one last time, he had always loved her but who would love trash like him. Even his own parents didn't love him. He wasn't good enough for her and she deserved better, she deserved Kid he was everything Soul wasn't. Just like Wes. Soul frowned maybe he should just disappear; too bad he is too much of a coward to do anything. Soul thought with a distaste for himself. He sighed as he walked back to his empty home.
