A/N: Hay its me again I figured that I would do a short third part because in the previous chapter I got really off track. So in this one I think that I will try to wrap it up but I don't know quite yet so this may or may not be the last of "Angel of Mine". Sorry to say that in this Chapter I got even more OOC than I have ever done. I guess I was feeling sentimental. Enjoy :D.
Back inside
"Hay Liz, have you since Maka or Soul around? Because I saw Maka not too long ago and now I can't find her. I really wanted to congratulate her"
"Oh I saw Maka go out for some air about five minuets ago and not long after I saw Soul go out with her. So Tsubaki, I wouldn't worry too much but I would like it if you would wait for those too to come back in because if you went out there right now I don't think they would be too happy."
"Oh." Gasped Tsubaki "Is there something that you know that I don't because it's not like Maka to go out for a while. I know that Soul dose a lot but not Maka she likes to be in with the rest of the people"
"Well you see Tsubaki..."Liz started with a blush "Maka and I had a bet you see. And it said that I would be able to get Kid to kiss me before she would ever kiss Soul. And on stage, as you can see she sort of won. Not to mention that Soul had a few questions for her so he went out there to talk to her, but that is as far as I am able to assume. So don't worry too much Tsubaki they'll be back in, in a few."
"Oh." Was all Tsubaki was able to say as she was blushing so much. With that Liz had gone off to talk to the rest of her party-goers
"TSUBAKI COME AND DANCE WITH YOUR GOD" It was the one and only Black Star. Tsubaki gave a slight not and went over to him. At that point they where playing simple slow music, and it just happened to be one of her favorite songs it was Truly Madly Deeply By Savage Garden (1). So as she walked over to where Black Star stood she was humming to it.
When she got to Black Star she smiled at him. He had grown a lot taller from when they where kids because he was a whole head taller than her. She felt his hands gently slid themselves so that they where sitting nicely on her waist.
"Hay Black Star" Tsubaki said with a slight smile on her face along with a small bit of blush. Sure she and Black Star where partners and all but they hadn't ever actually ever danced together, and she was getting a bit nervous with how close they where.
"Hay Tsubaki" Black Star said with the same smile she had "Are-Are you having fun tonight?" Tsubaki was caught slightly off guard. Black Star was acting really weird. First he asked her to dance and now he was making small talk.
Needless to say Tsubaki was cot so off guard that she tripped on her own feet, and feel right into Black Star where he cot her with not problem.
"I'm sorry Black Star I didn't mean to trip like that. It's just that I wasn't expecting that sort of a question to come from you" she said and then she realized how rude that sounded and tried to fix it. "Oh I didn't mean it that way. You...I...um...Oh I'm sorry Black Star" and that's when she heard it she heard him starting to laugh, and as the seconds ticked by he seemed to loose more and more control on his laughing.
"Oh I'm sorry Tsubaki" he said between laughs "It's just that you get so flustered sometimes. And its time like these that I love you the most" and that was when he stopped laughing. It took Tsubaki a few seconds to realize why he now looked so flustered. When she was able to figure it out she bushed furiously.
"Tsubaki... I know that you...um...deserve some one a lot better than me but, I want to "Be everything that you need" I heard you listing to this a lot so I sort of requested it before I asked you to dance and what I'm trying to say is will you be my Girlfriend?"
At first Tsubaki didn't know what to say but after a few seconds she said "Of cores I'll be your girlfriend Black Star" and with that she kissed him.
"Hay you too lets not make a scene" said a sarcastic voice behind the two love birds.
"Hay Soul did you hear that this god was able to get his girl?" Black Star said with a wide grin. Soul and Maka had just come back in because it was starting to get cold outside. Soul now had his hand placed lightly on Maka's waist and Maka had her's on his waits, as well.
"Hay did you hear that I was able to get the girl before the almighty BlackStar?" Soul said with a smirk.
"WHAT?" Black Star exclaimed "Do you dare challenge a god as grate as me?"
"And what if I am?"
"Oh please you too will you give it a rest?" Maka jumped in "This is a party not a who's the coolest god contest"
"Ya come on lets go and have some fun" said a light voice behind time all "Liz and Paddi did so much work to help me make this the most symmetrical party ever. They even where able to do it after that hard mission."
"Oh hay, Kid. Ya you three did an amazing job setting up this party. It is a huge hit with everyone I think. Or at-least I'm having a grate time"
"That's good to hear, Maka. Oh I didn't get a chance to say how amazing you where up on stage"
"Thanks Kid" Maka blushed slightly
"Hay Kid have you scene Liz n' Patti any where I wanted to talk to Liz and tell Patti that she rocked on that guitar"
"Oh they're over there next to the big crowd"
"Kay, thanks Kid" With that him and Maka went over to where they could see Liz and Patti playing cards. When they got over to them they saw that not only was it cards but it was cards with a twist. For every hand you lost not only did you loose your money but you also had to take a shot of what looked like tequila.
"Hay Liz can I talk to you?" Soul asked.
"Sorry Soul I would love to, but I have a lot running on this game so I can't loose"
"Hay Liz it's fine I can take over for you" Maka said.
"You sure? I know your good but so are these guys"
"No you and Soul go talk I'll take over for you you just have to give me a fourth of the winnings" Maka said with a sly look. Soul gave her a curious look but decided he could ask her latter.
"Alright lets go Liz" Soul said coolly. They walked away from the table and towards the back where not many people where. When they got to the back Soul turned around and said "Thank you"
Liz was not expecting this. She had anticipated some sort of shouting or him to be at least a little angry with her so she questioned him "For what?"
"For a few things. First making that stupid bet with Maka, and trying to set me up with her when you had me play the piano" he told her with a sly grin on his face.
"Your welcome I guess, but I doubt that you needed my help to get Maka. She has been crazy for you for like ever."
"Is that right then since I'm sure you weren't so-posed to tell me that I should tell u a secret, right? Well how about this? Kid is fancy's you more than he likes his symmetry sometimes, but you can't ever tell him I said that" He gave her one last smirk, because he looked very stunned, and let to go and find Maka. When he got back to the table he found that there was a very large crowd surrounding it. He was able to push his way threw and when he found his way to the actual table he saw that Maka's winnings had grown to at least double the last size when he left and also that her glass didn't seem to have been touched. At that moment he wanted to wrap his arms around her and give her a big kiss but he decided that that would cause too many complications for everyone. So Soul leaned on the table and watched as Maka played every person who tried to play her like a petty fool.
When Soul finally looked at his watch and it read:
23:32
He tapped on Maka's arm and told her the time and he saw as her eyes grew slightly larger. "Sorry boys but this is going to be my last round" Maka said with a grin. All the people who where watching all groaned and Soul could see the relief on the guys' faces as they then knew that they would soon be able to win something.
When the round ended Soul and Maka grabbed all her winnings and went to find Liz. When they did she was with Kid and when they saw all of Maka's winnings the about fell over. "Hay guys" Maka smiled "I guess I got a little out of hand but here you asked me to play and I wasn't about to loose so here I already took out my share. It was an even number too I always made sure there was an even amount on the table just for you Kid" She gave Liz a sly smile and then give her her money.
With that Maka and Soul went around and said goodbye to their friends and left for home. Soul hadn't driven his bike to the party figuring that it wasn't too far from their apartment, and he was sort of glad that he had the time to ask Maka some questions he had from the party that had gone unanswered.
"Hay Maka where did you learn to play cards like that?"
"Well when we had girls nights that weren't orientated around shopping we would sometimes go to clubs and bars and sometimes the bars had card nights and so after Liz tough me how to play. I played on my own and after some time I got pretty go at it. Liz hasn't beaten me since a week after I had learned." she looked so smug that it was almost cute, thought Soul.
"Wow, well I guess that's another thing I have learned about you tonight" he said with a smirk. They continued to walk in silence for a few seconds before he asked almost hesitantly "So how much did you win, tonight"
"About two and a half in cash plus a gold ring"
"What? A gold ring? Let me see that." he said as she handed him a gold ring that looked like would fit him if he wore rings like these. "What are you going to do with it?" he asked
"Well I was going to ask you if you wanted it because I can take it in to be sized so that it fits your hand." she said with a shrug.
"Oh, cool. But out of curiosity what where you going to do with it if I didn't want it?"
"Well then I would just find a small box and put it in it because I would never ware this thing even if I got it sized it's odiously for a man. And it's also not my style, you know."
"One last thing. What are we exactly, because I'm confused. Are we still partners or something more?"
"Oh" Said Maka "I guess I hadn't given it much thought. I had just figured that we where an item because, well" she paused trying to think of the right words "We sort of kissed in front of one another and plus I told you my feelings about you, and that you kissed me back" even in the dim light of the street lamps Soul could see the blood rise to her cheeks.
"Alright, I was just checking." They where almost to the apartment by then so it was only a short time of silence. When the got inside Soul looked at the clock and saw that it was midnight. Soul turned back to ask Maka what she wanted to to for the rest of the night and before he knew it there lips where locked together for the third time that night.
Maka pulled way first and said "Goodnight" she was about to turn away to go get ready for bed but Soul grabbed her wrist and pulled her into a second make-out session. This time he pulled away gasping for breath. They leaned their forehead's together and Soul heard Maka whisper "I love you" and Soul who was all for a cool way to respond said "I know". (2)
A/N: There is the third chapter. I have to thank a few people that I didn't thank before. First I have to thank my new found friend Monzepelmoon, she has given me the encouragement to continue this story if it wasn't for her I would have never put up a second or third chapter. A second to a person called haruko yamashita she has pointed out to me the fact that I sort of was given the idea to wright like this so thank you (BTW u should really read their stories they are very good). I am sort of thinking of putting up a fourth part that takes place later.
I was thinking that I hadn't put in anyone other than Soul and Maka and wanted to skip an awkward description on a make-out session that I have never had so I did this and looked up good slow dance songs an I found this one that I loved as a kid
This is form two thing ti was first from the movies of Star Wars (my dad loves those). And the second is from the Mortal Instrument series it was said by Simon in the second book I think.
Again I thank all of you who have been reading this. If you want me to make a fourth chapter you have to try and give me an idea on what should b in it. Thanks.
