The Right Choice


The evening was very successful it was really nice to get to see the old gang again. It was also a relief that none of them had changed their ways as well. Blackstar was still as loud as ever even though it annoyed the hell out of Maka most of the time that he couldn't keep quiet at all. Liz was still the same as well her girly ways never seized to change at all. She would still get annoyed if her eyebrows were not trimmed.

Tsubaki was still as silent and sweet as ever. She would still have to put up with all of Blackstar's shit every now and then, but other than that she still didn't seem to mind. Patty was, well she was just her usual giraffe loving crazy self. So in other words not really much changed about her at all. Then there's Kidd. Maybe it was just in her imagination, but she would of thought that maybe Kidd would of got over his OCD for symmetry by now. But, the way he was folding everyone's napkins at the lunch table. She was wrong.

The time read about six thirty in the evening. It wasn't fully dark yet. Maka had just left from seeing her friends about a couple of minutes ago. Not to remind her that Liz had decided that the girls should get together again. Maka really missed the times when her and the girls would get together and hang hand out with one another. It would be just like old times.

Maka smiled to herself at the thought of her Liz, Patty and Tsubaki hanging out with one another again. She really did miss her friends and she knew Soul did too, but then remembering that he never showed up like he asked her to that just changed her mood right there and then. She was now fuming and she would make sure that Soul and her would have a little talking when he got back.

Making the car click sounding that it was lock. Maka slowly dragged herself into the apartment as she waited for Soul to get off of work. She knew he wasn't going to be working that long today. He should be home around seven thirty. Looking at her cellphones time. It not read six fifty. She still had a while until he came back until then she would take a bath and sit down and read a book a while.


Finally he had finished his shift. It's official he has been working since eight till seven. He had to admit he was really exhausted, not to mention he had no idea where Asura had went. The last time he had saw him was about an hour ago and they were still arguing about the way he had treated that girl was unnecessary. He just hoped that she wouldn't return like the last one.

Checking his phone he let out a small sigh. Maka hasn't called him or text him in the past hours. He wouldn't blame her considering he practically pissed her off before she had left this morning. Not to mention the look she had gave him before she left. He knew there was going to be something going down tonight between him and her.

She would yell at him from not showing up like she asked him to, and then probably won't speak to him for a couple of hours by being locked up in her room. But Soul not really worrying about it knows just how this argument is going to end. She would come out of her room after a while and then explain to Soul how sorry she was. It always ended like that.

He still had no clue where the hell Asura ran off too, but that wasn't going to stop him from locking up and going right home. The last time Asura did this Soul didn't get home till like two in the damn morning. Soul grabbed the keys to the cash register locking it up, before closing and locking up the rest of the place making his way towards his motorcycle when he was done with everything that needed to be done.

She continued to wait the time read seven twenty right now only ten minutes until Soul would return back home. Maka said to herself as she turned her attention back towards her novel, just before she could think anymore about what she and Soul was going to talk about the door was sounded which made her advert her attention towards the door.

It was a little early for him to be coming back so soon Maka thought to herself as Soul made his way inside. Once he walked in red met green and they both instantly turned away from each other. She could defiantly feel the tension building up in the room, but yet then neither of them laid an eye on one another. Soul quickly hung up his jacket on the rack and then slipped of his shoes.

Maka only kept her attention into her book. She could hear the sound of the refrigerator door opening as he rustled through it in search for leftovers from the night before, that wouldn't be necessary if he only came to lunch with her and the other's earlier Maka thought bitterly as she began to clench her teeth together.

"Soul. You missed lunch with the others today." Maka said to him, but tried her best not to sound to angry even though she was pissed.

Soul paused in his place for a moment as he bit the bottom of his lip, and so it begins he thought to himself as he gave out a small sigh. Carefully setting the glass of milk on the table, before running a hand through his thick white snowy hair.

"Listen Maka..I'm sorry that I couldn't make it alright? But I couldn't leave work." He sighed.

This made Maka close her book in a very forceful way. Soul looked towards her and noticed that she was placing her book on the table before getting up herself and started walking towards him. A very unhappy look right on her face. Oh how he loved that look on her.

"Did you not hear a word I said to you earlier!" She snapped."It's been months Soul...months and you don't show!" She stated, glaring at him.

"Look. I said that I was sorry alright? What else do you want me to do!" He snapped back.

"I want you to take responsibility and tell your boss no once in a while!" She retorted, crossing her hands over her chest.

Maka knew who Asura was, but she has never seen what he looked like before. She has never even met him before the only reason she knows him is because Soul talks about him a lot. He's just another really good friend of Soul's from the things he tells her. Besides Blackstar of course, Soul and Blackstar will always be best friends considering Blackstar and Soul came way before Asura and Soul.

She could hear Soul groan as he face palmed himself and muttered unknown things that Maka couldn't quite make out. She only leaned against the counter and rolled her eyes out of annoyance as Soul continued to mutter words and eventually face palmed himself about the situation in hand.

"You don't understand Maka. If I don't work when I'm told I can get fired!" Soul said, trying his best to reason with her.

"Soul. If you weren't so hollow headed you should use your brain and think for a second!" She snorted."You had a good reason to leave early today I'm sure he would of understood the situation that was at hand." She sighed, trying her best to ease up a bit.

What Maka didn't understand was the way that Asura was, yes him and Soul always did things to look out for each other but sometimes Asura wasn't the best at handling someone saying no to him. Every time he would out seeking for a girl that he want's no matter what he would do anything to get her to fall for him.

In terms of someone rejecting to his request. That was something completely different when people would tell him no, or that they just simply can't have it done. That's when he gets angry and a little bit reckless might he add. But, the reason that Soul and him got along so much was Soul wasn't the type to let a friend down. It wouldn't be the cool thing to do. But, there are other reasons for that as well.

"Maka. You just don't get it do you. God you never listen when I speak!" He groaned, Maka only rolled her eyes picking herself up off the table.

"I think I understand perfectly Soul. Your just to afraid to handle things on your own." Maka told him, walking to her room.

"Well then Miss Smarty Pant's how would you solve this situation if you don't mind by me asking?" He retorted rolling his eyes, Maka stopped walking towards her room only to come face to face with Soul and his irritated look. She only gave him a small snicker.

"Easy hollow one. I talk to the one in charge." She scoffed, but before Soul could say anything she was already in her room with the door closed. Soul cursed to himself as he plopped down into one of the chairs.

Awesome. Just Fucking Great.
