they had decided to walk to school today. they had no idea about what they should say to their friends about them liking each other.''soul?''asked Maka in a concerned voice. ''hmm?'' he answered as he slowly walked towards the school gates.''what are we going to tell blackstar Liz and the others about well us?'' soul just shrugged his shoulders and carried on walking. Maka grabbed his hand and held him close. soul turned to face Maka and he kissed her softly on her cheek. ''we wont tell them'' he said in a amused tone. Maka hugged him close and said ''OK'' in her usual soft but serious voice.
when they had arrived at the school gates soul walked over to blackstar and gave him a high five. Maka walked over to Liz Patty and tsubaki who were standing in the corner of the courtyard. she greeted them and then they all went inside for the first period. Maka had science and soul was in her class. she walked inside her class and saw soul sitting at the front of the class.
he patted the seat next to him signaling for Maka to come and sit next to him. she sat next to him and held his hand under the table. the teacher had walked into the classroom by now and he had noticed that soul was sitting at the front of the room. soul was never the one to do work in class, he would normally just rest his head on the table and fall asleep as the teacher droned on about the work set. blackstar and kid were seated right at the very back of the classroom and could see everything that was going on. they saw soul sitting at the front with Maka. and started to wonder.''soul never sits at the front he always sits with us at the back, whats up with him today?'' asked blackstar in a questioning voice.
kid was worried to. he had noticed who he was sitting by. he was next to Maka and he was actually doing some of his work. ''now that's strange'' kid said with his usual calm self. ''since when does soul do work in class.'' the bell rang and then they all went to their next class. when it was time for lunch Maka and soul walked with each other down the corridors and into the lunch hall.
soul sat with Maka and her friends today. Liz handed tsubaki some money and she put it away safe in her pocket.'' why are you giving her money?'' Maka asked in a confused voice. ''i lost a bet'' Liz said in a menacing tone.'' what bet?'' ''oh nothing we were just betting on how long it would take for soul to make a move on you'' she said with a massive smirk on her face. Maka jumped to her feet in shock and said ''how on earth did you know?'' she asked in shock. think about it kid told us he was sitting next to you at the front of the class doing work he was actually doing work and now he is sitting down eating lunch with you on a table full of girls tsubaki said in her usual quiet and calm tone of voice.
soul just sat there in his seat his eyes widened to full and his cheeks were bright red. Maka ran out of the room in shame and soul jumped to his feet and chased after her. Maka wait he shouted down the long corridors as she ran. Maka stopped at her locker and took out her books for her next lesson. soul caught up and Maka tried to push past him but soul was to strong and he had her pinned up against her locker. '' whats the matter'' soul asked as he held Maka against the lockers. Maka's only response was that she burst into tears. ''how did our friends know that we like each other.?'' she asked as tears ran down her face. soul just shook his head and hugged her close to him.
soul walked with Maka back down the corridor and down to the lunch hall. they sat back down on the table and everyone went silent.
