The New Mission

Soul lazily crept out of his room and headed to the bathroom to comb his hair, but once again...he somehow got the comb stuck in his knotted up hair. He tried to get it out but found it to be harder then he thought. He walked out of the bathroom and headed for Maka's room. The apartment had been quiet for a good half an hour. Soul knocked on the blondes bedroom door just to a sudden thump.

"WHAT!" Maka yelled from the other side of the door. Soul just stood there shocked that she actually wasn't up.

"Um...I kinda need some help." Soul asked awkwardly. Suddenly the door flew open and on the other side of it was a pissed off Maka. She looked at the comb his hair and sighed deeply before pointing for him to get the brush. So soul got the brush and when he went to the living room he saw maka sitting with her legs crossed on the couch.

"Sit down." She hissed as she pointed to the space on the floor infront of her. Soul smiled as he gave her the brush and sat where she told him to. She gently began working on the knots the comb was stuck in. Before long she had successfully retrieved the comb and started working with the rest of the knots.

"Happy, now can I go back to bed." Maka asked as she finished with all the knots. She set the brush down next to her and leaned back on the couch. At hearing this Soul instantly flung around to look at her.

"Really? You wanna sleep when it's already noon?" He asked a bit confused. Maka just looked at him as if she didn't care what time it was.

"I'm going back to bed." Maka calmly stated as she got up and headed for her room but was suddenly stopped by soul who had grabbed her arm.

"What's wrong?" He asked a little annoyed. She just looked at him.

"You wouldn't understand now let me go." She demanded angrily. Soul knew by those words that it was something personal, and he would never be able to get her to crack. So Soul just let go and let her walk back to her room. Soul decided to head back to his room.

Soul sat there wondering what her deal was. After about 2 hours of this he decided he was going to need help. But it couldn't be one of the guys, so the first girl that popped into his head that could help him the most was tsubacki. Soul grabbed his phone and called tsubacki over to help with maka, and asked to keep black*star out of it. Before long there was a knock on the door. Soul opened it to see it was tsubacki. Soul lead her to his room so they could talk without being heard.

"So, your having problems with Maka?" Tsubacki asked concerned. Soul nodded a yes and quickly explained everything that happened.

"Uh, you sure you wanna know what's wrong with her?" Tsubacki asks as she blushes a bit looking at the floor. At her reaction Soul got a bit nervious.

"Yah." Soul asked nervously.

"Okay, you can't tell her I told you this. But, She's on her period. You should know what that is, well anyways, she's like this because being on her period can cause allot of mood swings on her. So, yah." Tsubacki explained still blushing. Soul began blushing too.

"Thanks, Uh yah, and well one more thing, seems how your a girl and you go through this too. Is there a way I can like help? Like calm her down or keep her relaxed." Soul asked awkwardly.

"Yah, from personal experience it helps to not move much, and not be so stressed because of everyday life. All I can suggest is to help keep her calm, and not make her move around as much. I'm pretty sure you can come up with more ways to help yourself now that you know what she's going through." Tsubacki explains quietly. Soul thanked her for coming and she left. Soul went out of his room and went into the kitchen. Soul felt his stomach growl in hunger. He opened the door to the frig to see they had some left over pizza from last night. Soul grabbed the last two slices and put them in the microwave as he put the pizza box in the trash. Once Soul was done with the pizza he replayed all the advise tsubacki had given him in his mind.

"Well, it seems as if I set myself up for a secret mission." Soul laughed as he sat there and patiently waited for Maka to get up.
