"Hey how was the bus ride here?" the eldest sister asked as she led the tawny blond into her living room
"Oh my god. I will never use the public bus system ever again." Maka said with a grave expression.
"It couldn't have gone that bad, come on seriously? " Patty asked skeptically.
"One. I sat in gum." She said ticking off her fingers. "Two. An old dude stared at me the whole time. Three. The bus was late. And four. A homeless man started to pee while he was sitting down. Without a second thought or embarrassed look." Maka finished while simultaneously flopping down on the couch in an exasperated fashion.
"Wow, that's odd cuz that never happened to me and Patty while we lived on the streets."Liz stated while sitting down next to her.
"And trust me we've seen some pretty weird stuff while we were on the streets." Patty said sitting on the other side of Maka.
Just as Patty finished her sentence Kid walked into the room, smiling once his eyes met Maka's from across the room.
"So how was the ride here?" he asked sincerely. Before Maka could utter a syllable Patty answered the question for her"A bum peed his pants on the bus." She said with a smile.
"Umm. Okay then." Kid replied cautiously, shooting a questioning look at Patty and an apologetic gaze at me. "You know I would have picked you up on Beelzebub if you asked me." He said.
"Really?" I asked sincerely.
"Yea anything for you Maka." he replied nonchalantly with a smile at the end of his sentence.
"Wait" said Maka holding her hands up for emphasis. "Before anyone moves I have two questions."I said. "What time is it and what time are we leaving?"
"Well its six o clock now and were all leaving when Black*star, Tsubaki and Soul get here, and there supposed to be here at 7 o clock so we can hang and have a before the party, party." Kid answered me putting my questions to rest.

Wow how time flies Maka thought. Thankfully they had no trouble finding Maka a dress and actually she rather liked the process. To her the dress they chose was gorgeous and accented her long legs and green eyes perfectly, disguising the fact that she was flat chested with a super bra.
The dress was a turquoise shade that stopped mid thigh, with intricate black beading that resembled lace starting on the bottom left side swooping up to meet the top right making it look like the design was draped over the dress. She wore her wavy hair down.
One less thing to worry about she thought, she thought as she started her decent down the stairs to see that this was the place that Liz and patty abandoned her to be saying that wanted to let her get ready on her own.
Liz was in a red staples dress that stopped mid thigh with a thick band of lace under her bust, her hair was pinned up in a messy style, Patty's dress was made of two parts, the top was a black corset with red design and the bottom was a tutu like skirt with layers alternating between red and black. Maka noticed that all three girls had similar black heels which didn't surprise Maka in the slightest. But what really caught her attention was the look Kid was giving her as she reached the bottom steps. To her it said that he would do anything for her, that look took her breath away.
"Maka, you look absolutely beautiful." Kid said with a hint of something along the lines of goddess worship hinting in his voice. Stopping Maka in her path to the kitchen. She looked at him and blushed the way he returned her gaze was enough for Maka to realize the sudden weakness in her knees that was growing to be quite the problem.
"T-thanks" she barely managed to stutter out from underneath the waves of emotion that were passing over her. She realized that he was wearing dark jeans and an equally dark shirt with his normal dress shoes. To Maka he looked amazing.
"Thanks" she corrected herself, as she nervously brushed back a rouge strand of hair from in front of her face. "Hey isn't it 7o'clock already?" she wondered.
"Yea it is," said Liz "but they called and said that they were running late so I told them just to meet us there."
"Kay, well I haven't eaten all day so I'm going to go raid the kitchen." She said as she briskly walked to the kitchen knowing that if she heard another word come out of Kid's mouth with the same tone in it as before that she would take a flying leap into his arms.
