They were high school sweetheart's, a lovely couple, a bet on the entire school that they will end up getting married once they finish school, they were inseparable, they said there 'I love you's' high school prom, crowned as the sweetest couple, they had their up's and down's though they had managed to fix those problems, she was the school's gorgeous, nerdy, girl, violent too what he had always loved about her, her friends, tsubaki, Liz and patty joined their boyfriends band, except for patty who wanted to follow her big sister's footsteps, kid, black star and soul formed that band, maka didn't joined for she was focused on her studies, though she always came to their band practices and small gigs or concerts.
Time flies by, as senior year came, they were to graduate, the band was being more noticed by the national world, they even got a recording deal, which they were all happy about including maka, though as they were to graduate, they had to go on to their separate ways, maka will go to the most top college, and soul and their friends, went to the world of fame, though they promised that they will never change, maka even remember the day they had their 3 year anniversary being together, it was the last of their day
They were lying down the grass, looking up the stars, that place was a secret to both of them, maka laying down at soul's extended arm, and soul wrapped an arm around her torso
"Maka?" Soul asked and looked at her closed eyes, her face glowed under the moonlight, she then turned to face him
"Hmm?" Emerald green met ruby red eyes, as they faced each other, the tip of their nose touching
"I love you... Never forget that... I know we will be leaving each other tomorrow... But I want you to know whatever happens... We are still us... Were still together..."
"Of course soul... No matter how far away we are... We will always be together" Maka said her eyes glazed almost wanting to cry but held it in. Soul grabbed both of her hands and pulled both of them up together in a seating position, he took out a black velvet box, which maka eyed confusingly, but soon turned into a shock face
"Soul? What is that?" Then he opened it
"I just wanted to let you know that you are mine, and whenever I am away touch this and in there with you" Inside the black velvet box, was a ring, a ring that says forever, with a chain, he wore it around her neck, the ring shone from the light above, they lay together, wanting this moment to last forever
She remembered that day clearly, they left each other and said their goodbye's, but they promised each other that they will always be together, no matter what happened, maka kept that promised, she didn't break that, and ever since the day soul wore the necklace around her, she didn't take it off, she wanted to feel his touch, his soft touch to her, 2 years had passed, did they changed? Yes. But maka still believed that they remembered her, and they did as she watched the live concert at her television, she smiled at the blue-haired loud mouth at the TV
"YAHOO! THIS SONG IS DEDICATED TO OUR LONG TIME BESTFRIEND! MAKA! HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU ARE NOW 19! SHE IS MY GORGEOUS SISTER! YAHOOO!" Black star shouted at the microphone, Liz, Patty and tsubaki smiled and said
"We love you Maka! This is for you!" They said though soul seem to be in a trace, he didn't say anything, they start of a song, kid started the first verse as the girls played their instruments, black star drums, Liz, patty and tsubaki base, kid and soul vocalist, though the girls sing as background or as lead too
Close your tired eyes, relax and then
Count from 1 to 10 and open them
All these heavy thoughts will try to weigh you down but not this time
Kid sang the first verse as he looked into the people down the stage; Liz went to kid and started singing the second verse, as she put a hand over his shoulder, and looking straight to the camera with a smile
Way up in the air, you're finally free
And you can stay up there right next to me
All this gravity will try to pull you down
But not this time
They smiled to each other, as they went to the bridge of the song, kid and Liz started to jump at the beat, the girls smiled while they sang along, soul took Liz's place as base, he has a small smile, though it was uneasy
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
'Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So shine no matter where you are tonight
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
They all started to jump at the beat as they wave their hands in the air, maka smiled at the television, though when she saw soul it seems that he was unhappy
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are tonight
They soon went to finish the song, they smiled together at the stage, they all looked at the camera with a smile and said
"Happy birthday maka!" Maka giggled at this, though as soul got the mic, when he said through it, she was hoping some kind words that is for her, but no, rather he said
"Now this song is dedicated to my girlfriend Ashley! Love you babe" Soul said with a smirk, once he said that the other members of the band glared at him, like if looks could kill, most especially Liz and patty, patty cracked her knuckles, and Liz cracked her head side to side, tsubaki had a disappointed look and went to calm both sisters, black star's face went furious at this, though as they start the song he didn't smile, not once, when maka heard this, her heart shattered, though she was strong, she didn't cry, she touch the necklace soul gave her, she clutched it through her hand tightly.
She watched the entire concert, though she saw that the group didn't smile once soul had finished the song, but when his girlfriend Ashley went upstage ran up to him, hugged him and kissed him fully on the lips, soul hugged her back and smiled at the kiss, well her heart crashed deep into the floor, though she stayed strong, it is her birthday, she examined her - Ashley - she wore tons of make-up she has a very short tight dress, and a high-heel stiletto, she has bright blonde hair, her lips is so red due to the lipstick she wore, she noticed that when Ashley went upstage, the group frowned deeply, soon the live concert was over, and the group got out of the stage with a big frown on their faces, most especially the Thompson sisters, who almost clawed the girl at soul's arms, he promised her - maka - that she was the only girl that he will ever say I love you, maka kept that promise, but it seems that he didn't, maka sighs and stood up from her couch, she grabbed her coat, bag and the key to her small apartment.
"Time for work" Maka says out loud as she strode down her apartment complex
They were now inside the limo, neither wanted to look at soul, Ashley hugged soul's torso and then they began their flirty self, Liz glared hard, patty too, patty was holding her giraffe, that was made into wood, while she glared at the flirting 'couple' she snapped the giraffe hard, which made Liz and black star laugh hard, the 'couple' looked at them curiously, but when soul looked at black star, black star in turn frowned at him
"Why?" Soul asked with a raised eye-brow
"Why did you do that soul?" Black star asked in a calm irritating way that showed into his facial expression
"Did what?"
"Don't play dumb, after we sang that song for maka, you grabbed the mic and shout into the television that you broke your promise, though I didn't know about the promise? She told me, tsubaki and patty, she was so happy... You know I wished that she saw that song we performed, but then I wished that she didn't, because of you soul!" Liz said furiously, patty's eyes were covered by her bangs, in a dangerous way, tsubaki tried to calm Liz, even kid, soul just set on a straight face
"Like hell he's into her, didn't you see Liz, soul loves me, not her, just get over your fucking best friend, obviously she will soon break that promise, for all I know she can be a whore now" Ashley said while touching soul's chest, she smirk at Liz, who had a stiff posture, and had a dark frown, signaling that this won't end good, patty and tsubaki too, black star was furious to he went to grab her but kid stopped him
"HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU TALK ABOUT OUR MAKA IN THAT WAY YOU BITCH! I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT SOUL SAW IN YOU, YOU FUCKING WHORE! WHEN MAKA PROMISE SOMETHING SHE WILL NEVER BREAK IT UNLIKE YOUR SO CALLED BOYFRIEND" Black star glared daggers at soul, soul just looked down, it was Liz turn now
"YOU DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HER YOU FUCKING BITCH! MAKA WILL NEVER CHANGE" Liz said furiously her face red in anger, the limousine stopped, the driver went to open the door, once the door opened, Liz bolted out, kid followed his girlfriend, patty slapped Ashley, soul didn't do anything, once they were all out, they were escorted by the owner of the restaurant, Marie. To their seats, it was a secluded area so no paparazzi's or fans, though they can still see the whole elegant restaurant they sat quietly together as they went to pick their main course of food from the menu
A girl entered the glass door, she has an ash-blonde hair tied up into a high pony tail, she wore a black top, black jeans, and white converse, she wore a brown coat, she soon removed it when she met the owner of the restaurant, her ash blonde hair was very familiar, they all watched her, but then the kitchen of the doors busted open, with the crew members holding a white velvet cake with a candle at the middle, they sang together
"Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday, happy birthday... Happy birthday maka... Happy birthday Maka!" The crew members smiled at her, maka just giggled at them
"Why thank you" Maka said with a small formal bow which came out as a joke, the band stared wide eyed, it was their maka, they watched longingly as maka and her friends laughed together, it was the same her, same maka, same green eyed, gorgeous young girl, Liz wanted to come up and hugged her till she choked, patty wanted to race to her and give her a big bear hug, tsubaki wanted to cry, black star was shock as a stone, kid too, though they just watched, they didn't want to ruin her perfect moment
"Now make a wish dear princess!" A guy with a blonde hair said, maka playfully touched her chest in a flattering manner, and batted her eyes playfully to them
"Why of course young gentleman" They all giggled to her, maka shut her eyes with a smile to her face, then she blew the candle, they clapped a 'yeheey!' They gave maka a slice of the cake; she ate it slowly as the boys watched her, wanting some cake
"Mmm... This is delicious... Kim-chan thanks for the cake!" Maka said enthusiastically
"Anything for you maka-chan!"
"Aww... Do you boys want some?" Maka asked teasingly as she made a pout making them like a baby, they all nodded, Jacqueline and Kim laughed
"Well then... Here you go..." Maka sliced a big portion of her cake, she put it into hiro's mouth, but then it smudge to his face, they laughed at this, then maka gave harvar, ox and kilik, who almost ran away, but with Kim and Jacqueline, they didn't, they all laughed at this, stein her professor who is the husband of her sweet boss Marie, joined in, with their sweet daughter
"Birthday girl! You shouldn't touch the birthday girl!" Maka excused while they tried to give her cake, they playfully glared at her
"You're safe for now maka..." Kilik and harvar teasingly said maka giggled
"Maka-chan! Maka-chan!" Their daughter said her golden hair bouncing; maka chuckled and got the 4 year old girl into her arms
"Yes yumi-chan?"
"Mama and papa and I have a present for you!" Maka looked at the two adults, who were like a family to her, then they brought out a big guitar shaped case, maka's eyes went wide
"H-how?! How did you?!" Maka opened the guitar and was shocked it was the guitar she was earning for, it was expensive as hell
"Wh-at?! Oh- my-?!" Maka eyed it while she stutters out an answer they gathered to her and smiled
"You've been looking at it for a long time now" Stein said with a smirk splattered into his face as he carry his daughter, maka was like a daughter to her now, her father is his best friend, and her mother is the best friend of his wife.
"Wo-wow! I don't know what to say?!" Maka said her eyes glazed, she looked at them and hugged them
"Thank you! Thank you so much!" Maka hugged them her friends looked at her
"Hey! We chipped in that too!" They said maka giggled and hugged them, the people eating in the restaurant watched the sweet scene, when kilik saw this he said
"Alright! Alright nothing to see here folks" Kilik said playfully, the crowd laughed and clapped at them
"Alright! Thank you! We can celebrate later... For now you go clean up..." They all obliged, maka now went to table to table to get their orders
"Wow!... I miss maka! Let's call her!" Patty said as she waved her hands up in the air, Liz giggled, tsubaki too, black star also started waving, maka then noticed when she was serving the drinks of one table, she began to walk into their way, soul looked alarmed, his girlfriend who was right beside her just inched closer to soul, and touched him intimately, though soul wasn't in the mood to play, he was about to have a closer look of the girl he always loved, who he promised that he will never leave her for another, though he broke that promise, when maka arrived at the table, she was shocked at them, though smiled
"What would you want at our fine menu? Dear guest" Maka said she didn't made any eye-contact to soul, when soul got a look at her, she was still the gorgeous girl he knew, her face radiant as ever, her body had refined curves, most especially her eyes, that seem to have him look at her longer, he noticed that she was still wearing the necklace he gave her, guilt immediately rushed him, she noticed that he was looking at her but she didn't look at him, not even one glance
"Maka-chan do you want to sit down?" Tsubaki said and smiled to her sweetly, maka returned the gesture but she shook her head
"No but thank you though, I need to work" Maka smiled at them, though as black star's big mouth opened
"BIRTHDAY GIRL'S ARENT SUPPOSE TO WORK!" Black star said with his loud mouth, patty nodded, maka giggled at this
"Yeah! Maka-chan should sit with us! Pleaseeeee! Maka-chan?!" Patty said her eyes popped out big, maka chuckled at this moment though someone went to interrupt
"Maka-chan!" A little girl shouted, maka turned and found yumi running up to her
"Yes yumi?" Maka asked, the group watched intently at the cute girl
"You shouldn't work! Mama and papa said you can rest" Yumi grabbed her hand at this, maka smiled at yumi
"I have to work sweetie, how 'bout you help me, so less work for maka-chan" Maka smiled at her, yumi giggled and jumped enthusiastically
"Really Maka-chan? Yeyy!" Yumi said and giggled all the way, maka chuckled and so did the group at the table
"Here give this order form to your mama alright, I trust you" Maka smiled at the nodding girl, yumi dashed off to find her mama, maka immediately turned to them
"Alright hurry it up and order something, because believe me that girl won't rest till I go with her and play" Maka said to them as she brought out a gadget and a stylus
"Maka~ I order you to sit with us..." Liz said with a teasing smile, maka rolled her eyes playfully
"I can sit with you later... Now I have orders to fill..." Maka then waited for them to say something, they all finally made their defeat, as they told her what they want, except for soul and Ashley, but maka turned to them with a smile, that hid a disappointed look
"What would be yours?" Maka asked with a radiant smile, though soul knew that this wasn't the true smile she held, Ashley smirked at her and said
"How 'bout you frying yourself to death" Ashley said with the most devious smirk, the rest of the group glared at her, maka just had a confusing look, she asked herself why would she be mad at her? Obviously she already had him for herself, Kim and Jacqueline went up to maka as soon as they heard this, since they were only a table away
"Excuse me! What did you just say to maka?!" Jacqueline said with a devious glared
"Oh well I only said that she can go fry herself to death, obviously she doesn't have a life anymore" Ashley spat back at Jacqueline, Kim in turn said
"Oh model or not I'll beat this shit, deserves a well beating, so I can rearrange your face!" Kim said while cracking her knuckles, maka went to stop this, Liz and patty wanted to say something, though they smiled at make's new best friend
"I like this girl" Liz said with a smirk
"Alright birthday girl says to go back to the kitchen" Maka said to them, Kim pouted and slumped as she turned to go to the kitchen, Jacqueline made a warning glance at the female, maka turned to Ashley with a devious smile in set
"Look you better say something that is in the menu, I'm not in the mood to play shit, I'm fucking tired and still working, so I rather have taken the offer to go home and rest, than having to tolerate a bimbo like you" Maka said with an irritating tone, her face resembles annoyance, Ashley continue to smirk at her
"Where did you get that necklace?" Ashley asked, when this topic was brought up everyone in the table stiffen, most especially soul
"Someone that is not your business" Maka said with a hard look set
"I want it, how much can I have it?" Ashley said, soul's eyes were wide at this
"You know what... You can take it... For free..." Maka unclasped the necklace out of her neck "it's not important to me anymore" She gave it to the she-devil
Everyone's eyes went wide at this, soul's eyes popped out, though as he heard the word 'anymore' his heart broke, he was so guilty of this, and it was right of her to do that, he broke the promise, and now, he wanted to hurt himself badly, he promised himself, that he will never let anyone hurt the woman he always loved, but it ended up being him the one who hurted her, maka lowered her head quietly
"I'll go now" Maka turned around and immediately turned to the kitchen of the restaurant, it hit her a nerve, that necklace was like her life, she felt empty without it, though now she was trying to be strong, she went out to say goodbye to the crew, when she wore her coat again, got her things (included her gift), and went to say goodbye to her boss, she was forcing the tears not go out now, her eyes were turning red, because of the force she set
"Goodbye Marie-san... See you tomorrow..." Maka turned to leave at the door, Marie saw that there was something wrong, so did the crew
"Maka? Is there something wrong?" Marie asked worriedly, maka just sniffed and smiled at them and said
"Nothing. Just tired." Maka turned and left, she put her hands inside her coat pockets, the band watched her walk, the girls saw that a couple of tears flew out of her face, soul officially hated himself, seeing the girl he loved for so long until now cry because of him, he wanted to punch himself, punch himself until he coughed up blood, black star stood up
"You fucking bastard! This was the second time I see her cry! She never cries! Until it really is way too much painful! Think how long has she kept this feelings of hers buried, and now she can't take it anymore she cried! And it was her fucking birthday!" Black star said furiously to soul, soul just looked down, he then punched him hard, Ashley gasped and went up to soul
"That's for making my sister cry!" Black star said as his face darken, he went to go at the men's restroom, he deserved that, soul thought, though he didn't really deserve one punch, he deserved to be the punching bag of black star and kid, Liz just ate the food that was served to them, patty and kid too, tsubaki went up to wait for black star outside the restroom, but then a blast was heard at the kitchen doors
"ALRIGHT! WHERE IS THAT BLONDE BIMBO?!" Kim shouted as Jacqueline and the crew went up to calm her down, though they also had a scowl to their faces, Liz went up to explain things, Kim and Jacqueline understood them, Liz smirked at Kim, at something she whispered to her, Kim went up to Ashley and grabbed her front
"Mess up with maka again... You die!" Kim warned as she let go of her
Maka continued to walk to her apartment complex, once she entered she locked the door and went straight to her room, when she flopped to her bed, she cried, she cried of all her hearts, she never cried like this before, the last time was when her mother died, and now she was crying because of him, she thought to herself how pathetic she was, she cried herself to sleep, the last thing she thought was the memories she had with him
