Part 4 - 309

Soul didn't want Kid pulling any dirty tricks while he was gone, so he had Blair go out and fetch the goods for him. He hovered near the doorway while he waited for her to come back, not wanting Maka to be the first one Blair ran into for fear of her finding out his plans. This was going to kill him, but if it was worth sticking it to Kid, then he would go through with it.

The cat-woman came through the door humming, and Soul stopped her on the spot, slamming his hand on the doorframe to block her from entering the apartment. "Hand 'em over," he grunted, thrusting his upturned palm towards her and waving his fingers beckoningly. She sighed, tossed the plastic bag in his direction, and waltzed past him into the apartment.

"Soul, what are you planning?" Blair droned on, completely oblivious to the fact that Kid was sitting right there in the living room listening to her every word. "Why did you need me to go get you—"

He panicked, improvising with the first thing that popped into his head. " - Go get me milk? Because I'm thirsty! I like milk!" Soul chuckled nervously and wrenched open the fridge door, snatching up the milk and gulping it down.

"Cow," Kid murmured under his breath, from where he laid on the couch reading a book about symmetry.

"Cow's don't drink milk, they make it, ass."

"Soul, I'm shocked you're using common sense for once."

"I'm not a complete moron. Where's Maka?"

"Our test subject went up to the store to buy some more milk," Kid replied boredly, turning a page in his book. Well, there goes that excuse.

"Is that all she is to you? A damn test subject?"

"You act like she's more than that to you."

"She's my partner."

Kid arched one eyebrow dubiously without taking his eyes off his book. Though, he ultimately decided to leave that subject, and move onto more pressing matters. "What's in the bag?"

Soul stiffened, wondering why in the hell he didn't use some excuse that was a little less hard to see-through. "You'll find out when Maka comes home."

"Sounds like a challenge."
