Chapter 2: A sad secret: Let me give your heart a break?
Soul Evan's POV
Kid slowly made his way over to his weapons, it seemed like he was avoiding people which wasn't exactly like him. Maka looked at me "Your soul isn't normal either… can you please tell me what's wrong?" Maka asked I sighed "There is something wrong with him and I don't like it." I admitted. Maka frowned "I don't like knowing my friends aren't feeling right either but we have to ignore it. You know how Kid is… he doesn't tell anyone what's on his mind unless its symmetry related." she said with a shrug.
I nodded "I know which is why it bothers me so much. I'm gonna find out his deal." I said then walked towards group. Kid was in a corner by himself while everyone else was around the table chatting away. I walked passed everyone and stood in front of Kid. I poked both his shoulders, not wanting to upset him anymore "Hey Maka said your soul was weird, what's up?" I asked. Kid looked up at me, his eyes were dead, no light in them at all "Nothing, I'm fine." he said casually. I knew he was lying, I studied his appearance, like that was gonna tell me something.
He was wearing his formal white suit, but it looked like there was extra fabric around the wrist area. Like a bandage or something "You wearing an extra shirt under that or something?" I asked, Kid quickly moved his arms behind him "No." he said simply and looked away. I raised a brow, a slow song started to play. I looked around and saw everyone dancing with partners, I smiled 'Perfect…' I thought. I held out my hand "If you refuse to tell me what's wrong then dance with me." I said.
Kid's eyes widened "But!" he said, I grabbed his hand and pulled him to the dance floor "No buts, just deal with it." I said. Kid was looking around at everyone; we were being stared at of course. I lead him to the middle, I turned around to face him and put my hands on his waist. Kid's face was a bright red, he put his hands on my shoulder and we started to sway slowly to the beat.
Kid stared at the floor "I know something is up Kid…" I said, he sighed and glanced up "I'm fine." Kid said then continued to look at the floor "Maka saw your soul. Please tell me what's wrong." I said, almost begging him to tell me. Kid just ignored me, I sighed and glanced down. I blinked when I saw some red on the bandage that was on Kid's arm.
Kid caught me staring, he had a terrified look on his face "K-Kid… what is that..?" I asked "It's nothing! I promise." he said in a panicked tone. I prayed to Death it wasn't what I thought. I pulled the shinigami closer "Your explaining after our dance…" I whispered in his ear. Kid wouldn't even look at me, the rest of the dance he was staring at the floor.
I grabbed his hand and pulled him to the bathroom. I opened the door and pulled him in then shut and locked the door behind us. I stayed facing the door for a bit, to prepare myself for whatever is coming next. I took a deep breath and faced him "Pull up your selves." I commanded, of course he refused. I slowly walked up to him and pulled up both his selves to find bloody looking bandages.
I looked up at him "I'm gonna unwrap these…. Don't pull away." I said quietly then slowly unwrapped both of the bandages. My heart shattered into a million pieces from what I saw. Red, angry marks all over his use to be perfect skin, some of the cuts looked very recent. I took a step back and ran my hand through my hair "K-Kid…. Why..?" I asked my voice was shaky and it felt like I couldn't breathe.
Kid started shaking slightly "Because I'm a freak. A disgusting freak! I can never make anything perfect! I'm disgustingly imperfect! My own partners call me insane and weird! I can't handle it." he said then fell to his knees, crying with his face in his hands. I slowly walked over to him and got down on my knees "You're not even close to being a freak Kid…" I said as I put a hand on his shoulder.
"Soul, even you think I'm weird…" he said quietly, why did those words sting so bad? I moved and rested my back against a cabinet. I stared up at the ceiling "Kid, if my words ever made you do that then I don't know what I'd do. I feel like I NEED to be around you and for some reason seeing what you have done to yourself broke my heart." I said as I laid a hand on my chest.
I felt Kid crawl onto my lap and put his hand over mine. I couldn't help but put my arms around him "No more please…" I begged as I grabbed one of his arms gently and brought it up to my face then gave one of the older ones a kiss "You don't deserve this. You're too cool for this shit…" I whispered. I heard him sniffle; I looked down at the crying shinigami then wiped a tear away with my thumb. He looked up at me; his eyes were a bit brighter than before. I smile and put his hand over my heart, Kid stared at the spot.
"Feel my heart? For the pass month it beats as fast as a drum whenever you around. I stopped getting nosebleeds around Blair or any other hot girl. Maka thought something was wrong with me but there wasn't. My heart decided that girls weren't for me anymore…" I said quietly. Kid seemed to be frozen again; I tilted his face up with my hand "My heart decided it was for the crying shinigami in my arms…" I whispered. Kid's eyes grew and I felt his breathing stop, I smiled a little then leaned down closer to his face "Let me give your heart a break?" I asked quietly then pressed my lips lightly against his.
I hoped to Death he wouldn't pull away and call me a freak; I wanted to feel his lips against mine. I almost pulled back in shock when I felt him kiss back; I smiled under the kiss and pulled him closer to me. Kid put his arms lightly around my neck, probably not wanting to press against anything with his wounds.
I pulled away for air "Soul…" Kid said softly, I prepared myself for a slap or something like that "I am too…" he said. I tilted my head to the side "You are what?" I asked "G-g-g…" he stuttered, sounding like Crona "Gay?" I said the shinigami gave a small nod then he grabbed my hand and placed it over his heart. It was beating like crazy "My heart decided that it's for the white haired scythe that is holding me…" he said in a whisper. I had a big smiled on my face "Your no longer alone Kid. I'll be there for you whenever you need. Who else knows?" I asked as I ran my hand over the top of his arm.
Kid stared at the ground "Just you…" he said quietly "We can keep it like that for now. But you know you should tell your weapons. Liz and Patty really care for you Kid. Everyone does, even your dad." I said. He just nodded "Come on lets join the party." I said, Kid got off my lap and walked over to a cabinet then opened it. He grabbed more bandages and quickly wrapped them both symmetrically on his arms.
I stood up and walked to the door to unlock it. I turned back and held out my hand "Come on Kid." I said with a smile. He gave a slight smile, first one I've seen for months, and then he grabbed my hand. I opened the door and walked back out to the party with a shinigami hiding behind me. I walked over to our group, Black Star looked like he was gonna pass out when he saw me holding Kid's hand. Everyone else seemed to go wide eyed.
Maka gave me a sweet smile; she could probably feel that Kid's soul is calmer "What's with the hand holding?" Black Star asked, coming off as a bit rude "Can't I hold my boyfriend's hand?" I asked. Kid squeezed my hand harder, Patty nearly jumped on Kid "Aww! Kiddo!" she sang. I smiled at Kid "I kinda figured you were a fruit loop." Liz said with a small smile "Congratulations you two." Tsubaki said sweetly.
Maka walked closer to me, she pulled out a book and gently tapped my head "Good job brother." she said. I smiled and gently removed my hand from Kid's and gave Maka a hug "Thanks sis." I said, she smiled back and ruffled my hair. I felt a hand smooth it out again, I knew it was Kid, MY Kid.
Now wasnt that sweet? :) thank you for reading and leave a review if you want too. If your wondering what song I was quoted its Give Your Heart A Break by Demi Lavoto(probably spelling that wrong)
