Alrightie. I'm sorry that this one has taken so long to come out. The truth… I've been procrastinating (pro-cras-tin-ate-ing, the act of putting something off, just for those of you who don't know). The reason for that is because after this story I have to write a story about Drarry (most famous yaoi pairing atm in the Harry Potter universe, DracoxHarry) for my friend, but I dislike the very thought of yaoi. But I s'pose I just have to man up and get on with it. -sigh- Anyway, this is NOT a continuation of my other story, this story is for VictorShayatu, because there aren't enough proper BlairxSoul fics. I hope you enjoy it.

Blair stretched out her kitty-cat back as watched Soul and Maka train. But she wasn't really focusing on the weapons meister, more on the Scythe she was swing around. That amazing scythe, the way it could cut through rock like it were butter. The way he gleamed in the soft sunlight. His perfect shape and length. He was the only guy that she actually liked, and not just thought of as another sex slave. Also, he didn't give in to her charm as easily as every other man did, which was another thing she liked about him. While it was fun to watch all the men grow tents in their pants at the very sight of her, it was getting boring. Soul played hard-to-get. And that's how she liked it. She laid down on the stone wall where she could look down onto her crush with gentle eyes. Watching them practice the Kishin Hunter attack on the edge of the forest. She was loving every second of this, even more when Soul resonated with Maka to become that amazingly powerful, Soul Resonating Witch Hunter, then Demon Hunter, and finally on some occasions, Kishin Hunter. Blair sighed. If only Soul would resonate with HER, and not that flat-chested, white-haired meister.

Later that day, after Soul and Maka had completed their training, the three of them went into the city on Soul's bike to get some ice-cream. On the way, they passed chuppa-cabra's, where they saw Spirit walking out, nearly tripping over himself. Annoyed, Maka took a rock from out of nowhere and threw it at her drunken father, hitting him square in the face, leaving a red mark and causing him to fall over. As they drove away, Spirit cried.

"Maaaaaakaaaaa!" He called in a sad, whining voice. "Please don't hate meeeeeeeeeee! Daddy loves you so muuuuuuuch!" Leaving the moron behind, they drove on to find a nice looking ice-cream parlour where Maka got a lemon sorbet, Soul got triple-choc chunk and Blair, turning into her human form, got cookies and cream.

They continued up the steep city hill and up to the academy, where they went in and up one of the humongous, bulky towers. Once they got to the top, Soul and Maka leaned against the barrier that prevented them from a long and scary fall, while Blair just sat on the edge of it. Blair was at the far left of the trio, then Soul in the middle and Maka on the right. The strong winds ran through their hair, making it stream to the left. They just rested there licking their ice-creams as they watched one of the most brilliant sunsets they'd ever witnessed. Unbeknownst to Maka, Soul was glancing at the beautiful purple girl that sat next to him. Maybe it was just his manly instinct to look at such a magnificent sight, but he did also have deeper feelings for Blair. She was cute (at times), she had a good sense of humour, she knew right from wrong, she had great magical power, she was protective and so much more. She had so many more qualities than boring old Maka. And also, whenever Soul did something wrong, Blair never stomped on him into the depths of despair like Maka did. No, she helped him up. She told him that everyone has accidents every once in a while, rather than his cooking was so bad that she'd call the cops. He rested there, continuing to glance over at the perfect girl. The girl who he knew would most probably never be his.

After they had finished there ice-creams and the sun had well sunk beneath the horizon, the three friends returned to the apartment, where there was a package addressed to Maka waiting for them.

"Hmm?" Maka wondered as she nearly tripped over the small, square, enclosed package. "I wonder who this is from." She stared at the well handwritten name and address that was inked onto the brown wrapping paper. Soul and Blair walked past her as she continued to stare blankly at her gift.

"Hey! Earth to Maka! You in there?" Soul asked rhetorically as he sat down comfortably into a chair at the dining table, but received an actual reply.

"Yeah, I'm here." She responded in nearly a whisper. Soul facepalmed himself and got up from the chair he just sat down on. He moved over to where Maka was, leaned over her to close the door and then moved the somehow amazed Maka over to the same seat he was sitting on.

"How about opening it?" Soul suggested as he went over to the opposite seat. Blair, reverted to cat form, was sitting on the window ledge just outside the kitchen, licking her front paw.

"Um, ok…" She said cautiously. "I just… never get packages." She pointed out, undoing the thin string that crossed over it. She carefully unwrapped the paper that hugged what lied inside. Inside was a red velvet box with a lid. Inside was a crystal dolphin on some very fine paper. Next to it was a plane ticket and a postcard with a message. She took out the smallish crystal statue first, admiring it in awe. "It's… beautiful." Her eyes brightly glittered in the light. Soul stretched out yawning, then went back to watching Maka, placing his cheek on a fist. She then took out the plane ticket, looking at it strangely. On it was a printed number, time, gate and the destination:

A-17

7:00 AM, 18TH OF JUNE

GATE 7

PLANE SW-909

TWO-WAY TICKET TO HAWAII

A small picture of a palm tree was depicted next to the number. The same palm tree could be found on the postcard, only larger. She flipped it over and read out loud what it said. The message read:

To my dearest Maka,

I'm sorry that I could never be there for you. I wanted to see you grow up, but unfortunately, I couldn't. However, I would like to see how you've grown. I'm currently taking a break in Hawaii. It would be such a pleasure if you could join me. I'd love to see you again.

Lots and lots of love, your mother 3

P.S. How is your father? Is he behaving himself? Probably annoying you, no doubt ^.^ Please give him my best wishes.

Maka was on the verge of tears. The Kishin barely made her will flinch, but a little message from her very own mother had nearly wrecked her. Although, at the post-script, a laser beam nearly shot out of her eyes.

"As if I'm going to even TALK to that man-whore." She said confidently, yet stubbornly, wiping the tears from her eyes.

"You should go." Soul suggested, catching her attention. She'd nearly forgotten he was there. "It would be a good chance to see her, wouldn't it?" Soul gently smiled at her. One of his rarer smiles. One that only she generally saw.

"Yeah, I should." She gently smiled in return.

"When does the plane leave?" Blair asked, prancing along the floor, jumping up onto the table.

"Uh, 7 tomorrow morning." The three of them looked at the analogue clock that hung on the far wall. It was 8:00. "Guess I should pack, then get some sleep." She said, rubbing her eyes and getting up. She walked down the hallway and to her room. "Night!" She called out behind her, shutting the door behind her and locking it with a 'click'. Soul's heart leapt. If Maka was out of the house, he could finally tell Blair how he felt. Then he could take her to a theme park, then they could get ice-cream, they could prank Kid. There was so much he wanted to do with Blair, but with Maka around, there was no way he'd be able to even go near her. Little did he know, Blair felt exactly the same way.

Well, that's that. I'm so sorry that it took so long to come out. But I've had a few problems with my laptop(s) so I haven't really had time since last year (December lol). Also, the dreaded yaoi lies ahead 0.0 I truly, honestly will not have fun writing it, but for the sake of fan demands (and one of my closest friends) I shall do it regardless! Please review. It would be greatly appreciated.
