Author's Notes: Ehe yeah. I just seem to pile up chapter stories after chapter stories huh? It's a shame really.
Nevertheless, let's get on with the love games!
"Wait, what?" Kid slowly said with narrowed eyes. Liz was smirking, Patty is laughing, Tsubaki's eyes were wide open, and Black Star looked about ready to faint. Only Maka stood silent beside Soul who was fidgeting. Everyone had been called to gather in Maka and Soul's apartment for a special announcement. Nobody expected the news to be about Soul's gender.
" I'm... a girl. A female..." Patty laughed again. Liz was secretly looking between Soul, Black Star, and Kid with a cat look. The three would always hang out with each other but now that Soul finally revealed 'her' real gender, there is going to be some major complications. Got to love that drama.
" You mean all this time?.." Kid muttered, not really knowing what to believe anymore
" Yeah. I-I'm really sorry I didn't say anything earlie-"
" Why did you wait until now say something?" Black Star asked. Soul felt like slamming her head against the wall. Here she was, confusing the hell out of her best friend.
" B-because... It's better being a male." This caused the assassin to raise an eyebrow, along with several other mild shock at her answer. Soul huffed, knowing that a long explanation is going to come. " I admit, I sometimes liked wearing boy's clothes because they well... feel more comfortably on me. So that's probably why you, Black Star, thought I was a guy on the first day of school. Plus, you were so quick to call me your 'best man' so I knew I couldn't disappoint you at that time."
" No way..." He muttered. Soul gave a small humored smile before her eyes moved over to Kid.
" When you asked if I was going to show you around on the first day of school... I tend to talk on a deep voice whenever I wake up from a nap. Or... sound like it." The shinigami's eyes widened and Soul looked away. Liz chimed in.
" Wait, then what about Maka? She didn't seem one bit surprised." The said girl blushed.
" I-I... Sort of knew about her secret. It's because of the rule with different sex meisters. We didn't want to cause attention so..."
" I see." Liz said before smirking. " I wonder, how do you two feel about knowing your best friend's true identity?" Liz teased, fully looking at the two males. Kid felt his face heat and he only looked away. Black Star stared at the white-haired girl, who suddenly felt intimidated by the intense gaze before shrugging.
" Whatever. It's not the end of the world." He said before motioning Tsubaki to follow him and they left. It was soon that the trio left, leaving Maka and Soul to sit in the awkward silence. Maka looked at the other girl with an encouraging smile.
" At least you don't have to hide your secret anymore." Soul only looked down depressingly.
" Yeah, but what'll Black Star and Kid think of me now?" The weapon already figured that Liz, Tsubaki, and definitely Patty accepted this but it seemed that the boy's needed more time to think over everything. From the time they met to now, and Soul had been a girl the whole time. They had been hanging out, sleeping over with a girl! Why is it a problem?
It's just her gender that they figured out, they could stay hang out normally...
" Hey guys." Maka called out as she and Soul entered the classroom. They, along with their friends were one of the few to be the first ones in class. As Maka made her way to the girls, Soul walked over to Black Star and Kid. She felt so relaxed knowing that she didn't have to burden herself from keeping one major secret from them. Now that they knew, she can now feel at ease. Meaning that there was no need to hide herself in the boys' clothes. Maka happily lent her a few skirts and tops yesterday night.
Several kids, mostly boys, looked at Soul, muttering something like," is she new?", and, " damn she's cute."
" Hey guys. I hope you understood about yesterday. You forgive me don't you?" Soul asked with hopeful eyes. Black Star noticed that Soul's hair was more straightened than being exaggeratedly spiked, so the girl's hair is now barely past her shoulders. Kid also noticed that Soul's face seemed more feminine, meaning that makeup was used to disguise her. If anything, Soul looked more... Pretty.
Both their faces turn red in sync and Black Star just shrugs it off, trying to act nonchalant while Kid tries to look anywhere but at her. Soul sighed in relief before unexpectedly hugging the two tightly.
" Thank goodness! I'm just glad this won't change anything." Soul pulled back with a relieved smile but was confused to find her friend's faces flushed wildly. Liz was the only other one who noticed this and secretly smiled to herself. She planned to keep close watch over the trio.
...
" Hey Tsubaki?" The girl looked down. She and Maka were walking to their next class after the bell had rang.
" Yes Maka?"
" You don't think Black Star has different thoughts about Soul? She's been worried all night and I just hope everything's going to be all right."Tsubaki gave her a signature kind smile.
" I'm sure he won't think anything less of hi-her. Ehe, I still have to get used to it as well." Maka smiled and sighed. She was glad as well to help Soul, but she wanted to make sure that things won't change because of her.
Nothing at all.
" Thanks Tsubaki. It means a lot to Soul that you guys accept her for who she is." The shadow weapon nodded as they entered their next classroom.
" And Maka, do you think that Soul wouldn't mind hanging out with us girls some time?" Maka looked over to find the teacher's desk empty.
" I dunno. Acting like a guy for so long, plus being friends with two guys must've gotten into her head. Besides, I think Soul's just fine with Kid and Black Star."
" Black Star, have you ever... Felt different now that we know Soul is a girl?" Kid finally asked. The two were leaning against a tree during lunch time. Soul had asked that they could have lunch outside. Indeed the weapon has been more lively around the two and they could see the inner girl in her. The two had yet to adjust to the new Soul.
" ... No."
" Don't lie."
" I haven't." Black Star was lying indeed. He's couldn't help but notice how pretty Soul is. These thoughts made him want to bash his skull against a wall for thinking of his weapon friend like that. Besides, Soul only thinks of them as friends.
Speaking of Soul...
" Hey, sorry I'm late. I had to explain to Kilik about what happened to my 'appearance'." Soul breathed while flopping between the two boys with a smile. " Anyways, since we don't have homework, do you guys think you can make it to the arcade? A new game came out and I wanted to try it out."
" I have to meditate."
" I still have to work on Liz's eyebrows."
Soul huffed.
" Come on. You guys used to be eager to go to the arcade, what happened now? It's... it's not because of me is it?" She slowly asked with a crestfallen expression. The meisters sweated at how they were easily drawn by her disappointed look before Black Star looked away with a dead-panned look.
" Che. Fine."
" I guess the eyebrows can wait." Soul's expression immediately brightened and she exhaled.
" Great. I was worried there for a moment," Soul smiled crook idly," Just think of me as a guy and it won't seem as awkward."
" Easier said than done." Kid muttered. Black Star couldn't help but mentally agree. Soul blinked.
" What?"
" Nothing. We'll be there."
