Chapter 2!
The flight had been long and boring, Maka had read the entire time, and was dead tired by the time they reached Tokyo. The hotel they'd be staying in was close to the airport so they'd decided to walk, by the time they got the room keys everyone wanted to crash. The girls were sharing one room, and the guys another. Maka and Tsubaki were sitting on the bed they were sharing, the weapon was braiding the blonde's long hair, as they waited for the demon pistol sisters to finish talking to Kid, something about matters that couldn't wait a second more.
A soft knock on the door followed by a giggle had Maka curious, she opened the door to find Liz, Patty, and Kid all staring at her. The girls were smirking and Kid looked embarrassed, it took Maka a moment to realize he'd never seen her in her pajamas before. She had on yellow short shorts and tank top, while the others were still dressed in their uniforms. "H-hey guys, what is it?"
Kid coughed to clear his throat, his conversation with the girls still fresh in his mind. "Well it seems like there was a mix up with the rooms, we um, the guys ended up with a romance sweet. So we were wondering if Tsubaki and Blackstar wanted that room and we'd get some a cot for this room." The Black haired mother smiled and nodded in agreement. She grabbed her things and walked down the hall to the other room while Soul and Kid brought their stuff into the girls' room.
Liz claimed one bed for her and Soul, and Patty claimed the cot, leaving Kid and Maka in an embarrassing situation. Maka took to the left and Kid the right, all she could think of was the night they spent together while his mind was on his conversation with Liz and Patty.
Liz had practically dragged Kid away from the others, Patty skipping along beside her. She was humming about giraffes and laughing every now and then. When they found a rather secluded area Liz pushed Kid against the wall and smirked, it was just like the first time they met, but Patty wasn't in gun form and yelling at him. "So Kid, I think you have a crush on a certain Scythe miester we know." He was about to dispute her but she didn't give him the chance. "There's no denying it, besides you left the bar with her the other day, and yesterday you and her had that little moment. Plus I catch you staring at her a lot."
The Shinigami felt his cheeks heat up "I d-don't stare at her, I'm just…" Then her words clicked, "What do you mean I left the bar with her?" Kid felt like the pieces of the puzzle were falling into place and he feared the worst.
The tall blonde gave him a quizzical look before explaining how Kid had saved Maka from some pervs and then ended up leaving together, but not before having a few drinks. "I thought you would have known, gosh Kid how much did you drink?" Liz had meant to tease him, but from his response she understood that even he didn't know the answer. "OMG KID, you need to talk to Maka about what happened!"
He sighed, she was right, he needed to talk to Maka. "Not now, after the mission. We need to stay focused for now." Liz agreed, though she wanted to drill Maka for info she'd wait for them to get back to Death City.
Kid and Maka fell asleep worried about what will happen, though neither worried about the mission.
Liz was first to wake up, she smiled at her sleeping boyfriend and kissed his nose before getting up. She made her way to the bathroom, noticing Patty sprawled on the cot. The blondes head shot to the other bed and a smile spread across her face. She pulled out her phone and snapped a picture before continuing with getting ready for the day.
Maka awoke to the sound of running water, she tried to move but something was holding her in place. The warmth was familiar and she wanted to know what it was, all she could see was black as she was pulled closer to the warmth. The tired girl was confused by the black wall of warmth that had her pinned against it, until it yawned. Maka blinked and felt her mind go blank, "Kid?" She mumbled into his chest, not expecting an answer.
"I'm still sleeping." was all he said before the arms around Maka tightened again and she felt lips on her forehead. The body holding her jumped, and the arms holding her let go like she'd somehow burned him. Maka closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep so not to face the awkward situation. "I can't let this get to me." She heard him whisper as he got out of bed. She didn't open her eyes until she heard the door open and close.
The second Maka knew he was gone she bolted up right and touched her head. Her face felt warm and she could feel her heart pounding fast. "What just happened?" She heard the water in the bathroom turn off and decided she'd take the next shower.
Liz walked out wearing a robe and with a towel on her head. "Hey, where's kid?" The look one the taller girls face told Maka she had seen them and probably had pictures as proof. "Why are you so red?" Maka ducked her head and shot into the bathroom. She locked the door and started the water for a shower. Liz huffed and went to wake her sister and boyfriend so they could also get ready.
Maka and soul had both taken showers by the time Kid had returned He grabbed some clean clothes and said something about using the shower in the other room before leaving once again. Patty could be heard singing in the shower, and Liz was sitting with Maka brushing the younger girl's hair while she read a book. Soul decided he was going to hang with Blackstar, leaving the girls alone.
After he'd left Liz decided she needed to get some of her questions out, though she wouldn't ask about the night at the bar, she was going to ask about everything else. "Hey Maka, do you think we can go on vacation after everything is done with?" Maka nodded, not looking away from the story in her hand. "Did you know Patty has a crush on Kellick?" Maka nodded again and gave a small hum in reply. "Too bad he only has eyes for Jacklyn." Maka hummed in reply and flipped the page. "Maka, do you like Kid?" Once again she nodded, but this time Maka froze after her nod and felt her face go red. "I knew it!" Liz cheered, throwing her arms above her head in triumph.
Maka on the other hand wanted to hide, she'd barely realized it herself and now Liz knew too. "Please don't tell anyone!" Her voice squeaked and she felt fear fill her viens. What if everyone found out, what if that made Kid remember the other night? Maka didn't want him to know they'd slept together, especially if he didn't like her. "Please Liz, don't do anything, I don't want you playing cupid for me." The desperation in her voice silenced any remarks from Liz.
"Alright, I won't tell him, or anyone else." Liz stood up and got dressed. "I'm going to meet the others for breakfast, when Patty's done you two can meet us down there." Maka nodded, grateful for the cooperation. She was sure she'd have to bribe Liz into agreement, so this was a pleasant surprise.
Unbeknownst to the two of them, Patty had finished her shower and was listening intently to their conversation. She even left the water running so they wouldn't notice. She suppressed a giggle when she learned Maka liked Kid. When she heard her sister leave Patty was going to exit the bathroom, but she heard Maka continue talking "What am I going to do? If he remembers we slept together he'll think I'm just like my Papa. Damn it Kid, why did I sleep with you?" Patty felt confusion wash over her, followed by surprise, and then sorrow. Though most didn't realize it, Patty was very smart and she understood what the people around her were feeling. She knew Maka hated how her Father acted, and wanted to prove to everyone that she was nothing like him. She also knew that Maka and Kid were the two most stubborn and thick headed people she knew. If anyone was going to change their ways of thinking it'd have to be Patty, that is, with the help of her sister of course.
