Soul opens his eyes and looks straight ahead.
"Soul.. thank you for getting me this far."
He glances at her, "You're welcome... I guess."
"You have to be the best weapon out there."
Soul looks at her.
"Maka, there's millions of weapons I cant be the best."
"Even if there are millions… you have shown me that you can be the best with hardly any trying."
Soul replied, "Whatever you say Maka...".
She sighs.
He looks away from her and then Maka rested her head against him she had no clue that she even did that. Soul tenses and glances at her blushing lightly.
She sighs again and closes her eyes.
Soul stays still.
Maka got closer she looked tired from reading. He watches her as she settled. Soul glances around. The others weren't around. Then he moves slightly and places his arm around her. Maka pressed into him a little now. He leans back and looks at the sky.
Maka snores quietly. Soul closes his eyes relaxing a little.
Maka then starts mumbling in her sleep, "S-Soul... I love it when you play the piano... I like how... your fingers dance on the keys."
He looks at her a bit surprised.
"Soul... y-you make the music... come alive... I would show that it really gets me... moving but ...I don't' want the others to see me... so... moved..."
The bookworm. The bookworm digs his music.
Soul blushes lightly then lightly taps his fingers on her side like he was playing a piano. Her foot starts to keep a steady beat. He stops a few minutes later. Maka's foot stops tapping. Then Soul moves a little. She stretches her legs and sighs relaxing again.
Soul looks back at the sky.
Later on she woke up rubbing her eyes she yawns. His arms were around her still and he was in a dazed state not really paying attention to anything. She blushed but acted like she was still asleep she liked this. He started to tap his fingers along her side again. Her foot started tapping. Soul blinks and stops and her foot stops. He looks at her Maka looks into his eyes blushing.
Soul looks away blushing also she couldn't say a word then she suddenly kisses his cheek. He freezes and blushes deeper. She was blushing deeper as well she pulls back and he let's go of her. She looks way sitting up.
Soul moves slightly then darts to the other side of the tree.
"I'm sorry Soul.. what I did... was uncalled for."
He leans against the tree. "It's ok just... just don't ever do it again alright?"
"Alright..." She was blushing. She couldn't believe that she did that at all. He sinks to the ground remembering what she said in her sleep and he covers his face as his blush deepens. Maka sighs.
"Hey Maka..." he looks at the ground. "D-Do you wanna go and.. uh.. listen to me play?"
She blushed, stood up, and went to his side of the tree, "I.. I do..."
Soul smiles slightly then stands. "Okay... let's go."
"Alright."
They go to their apartment. Maka sits on the couch as soul gets to the piano. Soul sighs quietly then starts to play. She stands up tapping her foot and he glances at her then looks back at the keys. She starts to move with the rhythms how fast he went depended how fast she moved. He grins and stops suddenly. Maka was in the middle of a twirl then she lands on one foot waiting for him to continue.
Soul continues watching her out of the corner of his eye. She was doing different styles of twirls flips that he never thought Maka would do. Soul starts to slow down; eyes locked on her. Maka's movements become more graceful and smooth. He keeps playing at the slow pace. She kept with the beat. He slows to a stop and she ends with a bow then stood straight up.
Soul looks away from her and back at the keys. Maka blinks and snaps out of the trance from the music. He stares at the keys.
"S-Soul?"
Soul glances at her.
"Are you alright?"
Soul nods then looks back at the keys. Then, Maka walks up to him. He stays quiet.
she placed a hand on his shoulder carefully and Soul glances at her and grins slightly.
"I'm asking again... are you alright?"
"I'm fine," He grabs her wrist and pulls her into his lap. "I don't know if your okay though."
H-Huh..." She blushed a little. "W-What do you mean?"
"Are you ok," He touches his nose to hers and grins. "...cause in a minute or two you might not be."
"W-What do you...mean...?"
He laughs. "Are you really that clueless Maka... maybe you should keep your nose out of books for awhile."
Maka had a nervous glance she began to blush and her face became hot. He watches her, "Try studying something that isn't for school." He let's her go.
"Like… what...?" She stood up.
He grins. An evil glint in his eyes and he looks at her. Soul stands and stalks toward her. Maka moved back. He keeps walking toward her till she was against the wall.
Maka blushed severely. Soul places his hands on either side of her keeping her trapped.
Maka looks into his eyes, "What... are you going... to do?"
He looks back into hers "Just stay quiet…"
The Meister closed her mouth. He leans forward and kisses her then pulls back before she could react. She blushed deeply. Soul grins and steps back removing his hands from the wall. She stared at him unable to move and he looks away, "Guess I broke her." He chuckled some.
Maka blinks then she steps to him. Soul sticks his hands in his pockets and she hugs him. He glances at her.
Maka hugs a little tighter, "Why.. did you do that?" She lets him go.
He shrugs, "Wanted to see what you would do."
Maka blushed and Soul walks over to the couch and sits.
Maka scratches the back of her head then Soul reaches over and grabs the bottom of her shirt and tugs lightly pulling her toward him. She staggered forward a little and he pulls again harder this time. Maka staggered more falling on top of him she was in his lap. Soul wraps his arms around her.
She blushed more. He lightly taps his fingers along her back. Maka's head slightly nods to the beat. He soon stops and places a hand on the back of her neck.
Maka's head stops bobbing she looks at his hand. He pulls her closer and kisses her.
Maka: she blushed about the same shade of his ruby eyes then kisses back. He kisses deeper then pulls back.
Maka looks at him, "Maybe I should stop reading books for a while."
He laughs quietly. "Then what are you going to do with your free time if you don't read?"
"Well...I-er...I haven't thought of that..."
"Then maybe you should keep reading till you find something to do."
"To be honest, sometimes I skim the page pretending to read," She gets off of him then lies down on the couch her head in his lap.
Soul looks at her a bit surprised.
"I thought you read the whole book, not skim."
"I do. I just skim over something I already read."
"Then why read it again," He moves slightly.
"To act like I'm not listening to others conversations."
Soul looks at her unamused. "Seriously?"
"Yeah.." She sighs. "I heard a lot of unnecessary ones especially in between Tsubaki and Black*Star. I heard Tsubaki was a little bit upset about something."
He tilts his head a little.
Maka continued, "She wanted to tell him something but she couldn't do it."
"Oh.." He looks away.
"I still ponder what she wanted to tell him."
"Hm... I think I might know."
Maka responded, "What is it?"
"I'm not saying."
"Come on tell me!"
"It's not my place to say," Soul glances at her.
"Okay" she sits up and leaves the apartment to find Tsubaki.
Soul he grabs a soda and sits back on the couch.
Maka talks with Tsubaki at the Death Café, then comes back into the apartment. She looked at the ground. He was sitting at the piano playing quietly. Soul stops and looks at her, "Maka, you okay?"
She slumps onto the couch Blair sat on maka's stomach in cat form Blair looks at him.
He looks at Blair he nearly face plants the keys and he looks back over at them, "Guess that would explain why she's acting weird." He turns back to the piano.
Soul sighs and plays his hands on the keys making a low dull noise.
Maka heard the sound and sat up Blair jumps onto the shoulder of the couch.
He grabs his soda off the ground and stands then Soul walks over and stands infront of her.
She looks up at him.
"You gonna be okay?" He tilts his head slightly.
Maka nods.
"Alright," he places his soda on the table and sits on the couch as Blair falls asleep.
Soul looks at Blair then looks at the ground.
Maka takes note, "Are you okay Soul?"
"Fine.." He takes a drink of his soda/
"Alright..." Maka gets up and picks Blair up as he watches her.
Maka puts Blair in her room and he looks back at the ground. She comes back and he stays quiet.
"Soul what is g-" There was a loud explosion.
He stands up quickly.
"It's a Kishin. A powerful one too," The place got distorted and Soul moves in front of Maka.
They heard a shriek and Soul glaces at her, seeing that Maka had covered her ears.
He lightly touches her shoulder. Maka she looks at him the white of her eyes turned gray a little bit she stood up then looked forward.
He watches her. Maka stepped forward then he saw a large scythe blade come from her back and she continued walking.
Soul steps back .She looks at him then continues walking more blades coming from her wrists.
He stares at her, 'Since when is she a weapon?'
Maka stops and turns to him, "I have always... been a weapon but I took the path of the Meister. My weapon side has woken up from... deep slumber."
Soul steps back, "And you never told me?"
"I can only tell you who I really am... in this realm." She then continues walking.
Soul stays where he was he wasn't going to move, "Nice to know... we're partners. We're not supposed to keep secrets from each other."
"This is a secret... no one knows about... I wanted to be paired up with you... because I knew you would be a good one. I am Maka Albarn. I am a student of DWMA and I am a Meister... and a weapon."
"I hate secrets makes me feel like people can't trust me... if I would have known you were both a Meister and a weapon... I would have said no when we decided to be partners.."
She then continues walking "You can deal with me when we wake up from this dream. Meister Maka is asleep. A Kishin is more important than this right now... Piano Fingers."
