Excali-love

The familiar white top hat was seen walking down the Shibusen corridors. There was no doubt about it. Excalibur had returned. He was greeted the usual way, people running and the familiar annoyed faces but more particularly from Hero, Ox, Kid and Black Star who met his gaze with very annoyed expressions.

The ash white haired, scarlet eyed teenager Soul Eater Evans waltzed down the corridor with Black Star's aqua eyes following his every movement. Soul didn't seem to notice this and walked into the classroom slowly, Black Star following him and sitting down next to him. Excalibur stood on the desk and began his usual 6 hour rant.

Black Star looked over as Soul's eyes droop in a particularly bored fashion, mesmerizing his gaze. As soon as the crimson eyes met the aqua pools, Black Star averted his glance, looking to Excalibur. The ghostly white haired teenager just chuckled softly under his breath. The minute the bell sounded everybody rushed out of the classroom. Everybody that is except for Soul, Black Star and Excalibur.

Soul casually put his feet on the desk as Excalibur looked at them both, alternating his gaze between them. He tapped his cane off the desk then pointed it to Black Star, crying "You love Soul!"

Black Star's jaw dropped as he looked to Soul then Excalibur. Soul had his feet down and was now watching Black Star with intent. The aqua haired teenager could feel his face burning as those crimson eyes gazed into his soul. Excalibur still had his cane pointed at them; he didn't look like he would be moving anytime soon.

"Is this…true…Black Star?" Soul asked curiously.

All he could do was nod. Of course it was true, he was the figure he had idolized for so long, but this wasn't the way he imagined his love to be proclaimed. Soul was slightly shocked about this but then smiled. Excalibur casually marched out of the classroom, a feeling of satisfaction as his work has been accomplished.

"To tell you the truth Black Star…I like you too…" Soul admitted sheepishly.

Black Star blinked, taking in this new information. A sudden sense of relief overcame him and he found himself smiling widely. Soul moved over next to Black Star and cupped his cheek in his hand, stroking his face.

"May I?" The white haired boy asked.

Black Star nodded and Soul leaned in, kissing him softly on the lips. Time seemed to freeze and they both memorised every second.

As Soul pulled back Black Star tangled his fingers in the ash white hair and pulled the figure closer, kissing him again. It was obvious that was the way the wanted time to stand.
