Chrona's heart was pounding hard in her chest.
This wasn't supposed to have happened. She didn't plan for this at all. How did things get so complicated in such a short amount of time? It was only a few hours ago her cousin Soul confessed he liked someone. She had managed to unintentionally weasel out that the person he happened to like was none other than her best friend – Maka.
Chrona didn't have to heart to tell her cousin that Maka already liked someone else but judging from the sadness in his eyes, she had a feeling he already knew.
She wished she could have done something for her cousin – supported him somehow but she was already helping Maka win the affections of Death the Kid. She promised herself she'll do anything for the person who made her smile first.
With the goal of helping Maka, Chrona somehow (she honestly didn't know how it happened) became a close friend to Kid – hoping to learn his likes and dislikes to give Maka an advantage over all the other girls after the Death God's affections.
Too bad she didn't think the Death God himself already had someone he liked.
"Will you go out on a date with me?" She heard him ask, coughing lightly to hide his embarrassment. Chrona looked around her to see just who Kid was asking. Fear and disbelief gripped her heart when she realized that there was no one else besides them in the park.
"Yes Chrona," Kid chuckled affectionately but it was obvious he was still nervous by the way he was clenching his hands together, "I'm asking you. Will you accompany me to the opening of the fair that we are sponsoring? You mentioned you never been to one before so I had one set up."
"W-wouldn't you r-rather go with someone else? L-like Maka?" she asked meekly, hopefully.
Kid blushed heavily as he looked away. "I was hoping to take the girl who's been on my mind since before I even became friends with her. I was hoping to take her to the fair to show her how precious she is to me despite how asymmetrical she is." He looked up and gave Chrona a brilliant smile. "Back then, I never thought I'll be brave enough to ask but after getting closer to you, I realized I can't let you go. Will you let me take you to the fair Chrona?"
She couldn't help it. Fear, anxiety, and stress had her bolting from the bench with her heart pounding in her ears – ignoring the heart-wrenching: "Wait! Chrona!"
She didn't mean for this to happen. How was she supposed to know that Kid liked her? How was she supposed to know that getting close to Kid would actually ruin Maka's chances with him? How was she supposed to know that helping Maka was actually breaking her cousin's heart?
In one single afternoon, three hearts were broken. Chrona's heart joined them as she ran away from the park – feeling it break with the fact that none of her important people will get their happy ending…
Decided to write some drabbles on some ideas that have been floating in my head. Let me know what you guys think!
