Chapter 2: Things get even weirder
Maka walked out of the book store, romance novel in hand and an ominous expression written upon her face. Man, what is up with everyone today? She had thought. She started walking down the street to the supermarket, remembering that Liz told her to stalk up on candles for the big hurricane. Hmm… I'll get nice and scented ones, maybe apple scented and cinnamon… oh wait, Soul hates cinnamon… she sighed still remembering what had happened between them.
"Oh Soul, what caused you to act like this?" "Act like what?" Maka almost jumped out of her skirt when she turned around to find her friend Tsubaki staring at her with a questioning expression.
They stood there in the candle aisle talking about what happened with Soul, Black star and Kid. After Maka had finished talking, she waited for her friend's response.
"I see.." is all she said. "Well, it looks as if the boys are all of the sudden attracted to you Maka! How cute!" Maka blushed and put on a pouted face. "But that can't be, who would like someone like me? I've got a body that doesn't have curves and I practically hit them for everything they say." Tsubaki stood and pondered for a moment. "hmm.. Maka maybe you should just let it all go. I mean, maybe Soul was just out of it or something. Just let everything slip and act like nothing happened… if he continues to come onto you like that, then and only then you should sit him down and talk to him. It is your decision though Maka. Anyway, me and you should get going, the hurricane is already causing heavy wind and rain, pretty soon it will strike full blast… I'll be seeing you Maka, good luck!"
Maka watched her friend leave. She paid for the scented candles and made her way home.
….
"Damnit! The lights went out… great we don't have any candles either." Soul walked to his room and laid on his bed. Man, where's Maka? I hope I didn't freak her out to much. I just can't resist her soft body anymore. She'll get used to me laying my hands on her. He smiled and turned to look out the window and saw just how bad the storm was. He heard the door slam and he smirked. There's my girl he thought.
Maka lit the candles in the living room and as soon as she finished she planted herself on the couch. She sighed from how cold she was from being pounded with rain and wind. She was completely drenched with water from head to toe. She grabbed her romance book and started to read followed by the sounds of footsteps. She lifted her head to find Soul staring at her drenched body. She shoved the book even closer in her face to avoid looking at Soul.
"A romance novel huh?" he said with a smile. "It's too dark to be reading…" he snickered as he grabbed the book out of her hands. She huffed and gave Soul a death look… too bad it was so dark he didn't see it. "What do you want Soul?" She asked with an attitude in her voice. He smiled big showing his sharp and pointy teeth. "What do you think I want Maka? I want you." She turned her head along with her body to not look at him. "Stop lying to yourself Soul…" she said with a sigh. "You don't care for me… you and I both know it."
"You're completely covered in water." He said avoiding the previous comment. She sat up and hastily said, "Don't you think I already know…" She was interrupted when Soul climbed on top of her and forced her down. She struggled but soon gave into his warmth as he wrapped his arms around her. "With your permission Maka, I can make you warm." He said smiling. Her face started to turn red. "How bout it Maka? Do you want me to make you feel warm?" he said gently stroking her neck.
Honestly Soul, she thought. Yes, I would love you to do just that, but I know this isn't you. So no matter how much temptation and how much I become aroused, I can't let you do that. She put her hands on his chest and shoved him off her. "I'm going to take a bath. Don't wait up for me." With that she left and got into her bath with so much on her mind, it felt good to feel the stress lift away.
…..
"Black star, are you okay? You haven't said one word at all since you got back from playing basketball. What happened?" Black star looked away and blushed. "I met a girl that totally grabbed my attention. She's so great. I can't help but notice how cute she is… I think I'm in love with her." Met? Tsubaki thought Is he talking about Maka? But they've known each other for years. What on earth is going on here?
…
"My master? Everything is going perfectly! The girl has no idea what's going on! We might just be able to fool her into thinking that all the boys are falling head over heals for her! What an idiot that girl!"
A disgusting smile appeared from the dark. "Good work Michelle… I knew we found the right girl when we saw her! Keep making her think that she is attracting those boys. Everything will go according to plan, then when she least aspects it, we can take her out."
"Or maybe master, if she's a good girl, she'll give into our threats and come with us and serve you well! After all it is told she is one of the best soul perceptionists in the world. We can't afford to waste someone like that right master?"
"Yes my pet… we can't just let her go to waste.. for now, monitor the boys' progress… keep working your magic and then the girl will seek somewhere to get away from them. When she is alone, that is when we will strike…"
to be continued…
