1. Comfort
Maka sighed as she furrowed her face into the crook of her beau's neck, pulling the comforter closer around her.
2. Kiss
"Hey, where'd my gum go?" asked Maka just as Soul popped a bubble and smirked at her.
3. Soft
Maka absently ran her fingers through the hair of her sleeping partner, feeling the silkiness between her fingers.
4. Pain
There's nothing more painful than seeing the one you love lose a fight, costing them their life.
5. Potatoes
"Soul, if you do not answer me in ten seconds I will rearrange your anatomy like you're Mr. Potato Head."
6. Rain
Soul could practically see the cartoonish rain cloud dissipating over her head as he stepped off of the bus to greet his meister after his two week long trip.
7. Chocolate
Maka's head could've melted from the heat of her blush resulting from Soul licking the chocolate fondue off of her chest….with all of their friends watching.
8. Happiness
"My happiness is a relaxing, hot bath," stated Maka while Soul thought to himself, 'And mine is being with you in that relaxing, hot bath.'
9. Telephone
The second she stepped through the door into her and Soul's shared apartment she was greeted with an annoyed Soul holding her cell phone – the one she left behind when she went to the club.
10. Ears
Maka let out an odd high pitched moan when Soul's rough, warm tongue flicked her ear, leaving it feeling weird and wet.
11. Name
"What kind of middle name is 'Eater' anyways?" asked Maka to which Soul flashed his sharp teeth asking wordlessly, 'Would you like to find out?'
12. Sensual
His pointed teeth scraped the base of her neck just barely, but enough to make Maka shiver with delight.
13. Death
Soul decided that he preferred Maka Chops over Shinigami Chops, because Shinigami-sama absolutely did not laugh and kiss his head to make it feel better (although it would've been odd if he did).
14. Sex
The bed's springs groaned in protest of the two lovers weight, filling the air along with hushed moaning and whimpering and Soul's low growl in Maka's ear: "I'm about to teach you the meaning of a 'popped cherry.'"
15. Touch
"We could've avoided all of this is you would just learn to keep your hands to yourself!" Maka scolded Soul.
16. Weakness
Of all of the things to bring her down – pre-kishins, bad grades, defeat, wounds and the like, her father – Maka's worst kryptonite was chocolate.
17. Tears
The second he tasted salt on his lips, Soul pulled away to see Maka, crying like there was no tomorrow and instantly regretted kissing her in such a state.
18. Speed
He was taking it slow for her sake, ignoring everyone's jabs at him to "hurry up already"; after all, learning the guitar took time.
19. Wind
'Thank you Science and Mother Nature,' Soul thought as a powerful gust of wind lifted Maka's skirt giving him the best panty-shot EVER.
20. Freedom
Maka was eighteen at last and would no longer have to listen to her father about her dating life and was intent on going out to enjoy her newfound freedom (Soul wasn't having any of that, though).
21. Life
Without him, Maka would be stuck inside her room reading dusty books and not having the fun every teenager should have (and she was always reluctant to admit this).
22. Jealousy
It wasn't the amount of partner requests that bothered Maka, but the fact that most of them were from girls.
23. Hands
She loved the feel of his hands: in hers, on her cheek, tangled in her hair, on her hips, encasing her breasts, down there…the list keeps going.
24. Taste
He tasted blood on her lip before he heard her gasp of pain and quickly pulled away, muttering strings of apologies.
25. Devotion
He thought it was so cute how devoted Maka was to baking him a lemon cake that she was still in the kitchen after hours of baking – or maybe it was because she wasn't about to be bested by an oven.
26. Forever
Was it only Liz that realized that Soul and Maka didn't have all of eternity to confess their feelings and was it really wrong to dress Maka in lingerie and handcuff her to her bed and send Soul in there? (You know what, don't answer that.)
27. Blood
He could resist the insanity on his own just fine, but when the Little Oni began to threaten Maka's safety it started to become a struggle.
28. Sickness
Soul'd been on edge ever since he forgot to use protection that one time and nearly had an aneurism when Maka got sick one morning a couple of weeks later ("Relax, Soul. It's just the flu. I started my period yesterday. Whatever you do, don't faint.")
29. Melody
A haunting melody of violins, a piano, and cellos played off to the side and Soul watched from the roof as they unveiled Maka dressed with cuts and bruises, chained to a chair where she was to be sacrificed.
30. Star
Soul didn't care what Black Star was always shouting to the heavens; Maka was the only star in his eyes.
31. Home
"You were born in England? That's so cool! Do you think we could go one day?"
32. Confusion
Whenever Maka got severely pissed at Soul, she didn't hit him; she just spoke to him in Japanese to mess with his head – damn her ethnicity.
33. Fear
Soul knew that deep down, Maka could feel the worst of fear, but was impressed at how well she hid it.
34. Lightning/Thunder
The flashes of lightning painted their dancing shadows on the walls and the steady rhythm of rain harmonized with their music of love.
35. Bonds
Little did Maka know, Soul always thought of her as an angel bound in human form, waiting to be released to shed her true light and beauty.
36. Market
For her birthday, he had paid for a flight to California to take her to Japantown because he recalled that she had mentioned it "made her feel at home."
37. Technology
He argued that the only reason he refused to buy her an iPod was because it'd be a waste of money on a good quality mp3 player that was going to be filled with crap techno music.
38. Gift
The best gift they got on their birthdays and Christmas (or any holiday for that matter) was that they were alive to enjoy it.
39. Smile
"That smile is very devious and I don't like it because the last time you smiled like that, I couldn't walk for days."
40. Innocence
His eyes must've been deceiving him because there was no way his meister (who, keep in mind, despises the male species) was in a heated make-out session with one of their classmates.
41. Completion
The real triumph post-battle wasn't the soul they collected, but the fact that they were still in one piece.
42. Clouds
Clouds were for dreamers, the sun was for optimists, nature was for hippies and tree-huggers, the moon was for spiritual believers, but souls were for death scythes.
43. Sky
Ever since they learned of Asura's location on the moon, Maka tried to avoid flying as much as possible; she didn't want to take any risks.
44. Heaven
"Does it really look like I could belong in Heaven, Maka?"
45. Hell
Echoing whispers sounded all around her in the dark and she yearned for the warmth and comfort of her weapon's wavelength.
46. Sun
It was so freaking annoying how his bright white hair reflected the sun's rays right into her eyes.
47. Moon
Even though the moon was currently Asura's and his associates hideout, Maka couldn't help but think how romantic and peaceful it was under its light.
48. Waves
"And that is what surfers call 'a wipeout,'" Soul said, watching his meister being pulled under the crashing wave.
49. Hair
Maka practically jumped Soul when he came out wearing a black fedora and made a note to keep his headbands hidden for just a little longer.
50. Supernova
He saw stars whenever she Maka-Chopped him into oblivion, but felt them exploding whenever their lips touched.
Author's Comments:
I love these sentences. I really do. They're fast, easy, and inspire me to write more stories. I feel so bad for neglecting all of my other stories.
Which reminds me, I am furiously working on the 6th chapter for Grigori's Promise (for those of you who care). I'm at the part where Maka finally arrives in the Death Room to speak to Shinigami-sama. I can't say anything more than that.
Back to this story.
Here you go. Set 2 out of 5. I am going to be so sad when these are over. ;_; Maybe I'll do them for another fandom. Yeah, that sounds good.
I do have a couple of comments about the different themes.
#7 – I want to write that. So bad. I think I will.
#8 – Okay. Yes. ;_; I did take that from the Elemental Gelade anime. You know the part when they're going to Arc Aile headquarters and Cou's in his room thinking about what makes Edel Raids happy? Yeah. That.
#15 – You can really take that any way you want, but my thoughts were that Soul and Black Star got in a fight in a store. That sells glass. (I know, I'm surprised I wasn't thinking dirty either.)
#26 - …You don't know how badly I want to write that.
#29 – I was listening to a certain song. Blame that. (And no, I don't remember the song.)
#32 – I cannot be the only one who thinks she would do that. If I was bilingual, I know that I sure as hell would.
#39 – I just like this one. It's my favorite. :)
Review and tell me which ones were your favorites! ;)
Also, I may do this again for another fandom. I have a couple of fandoms in mind, but I'm not too sure yet. I'm probably going to put a poll up, but I want your guys' opinions now so I have a general idea where to start. Your options are:
-Teen Titans
-Pirates of the Caribbean
-Avatar: TLA
-Or my story Grigori's Promise (So it'll be Soul Eater but it will go to accordance with the story)
Until next time~!
