Maka woke up as the light pooled into her room. The morning slowly crept upon her and she didn't like it. Groaning, she shifted in her bed once or twice before sitting up completely. She blew at her bangs as she stood up and rubbed her eyes. She begged the weekend to stay forever in her mind, but knew that Language project was her destiny to finish. Maybe if it weren't for Soul, she'd have it partially done by now. Heck, she might even have done already, but probably not...

Maka looked up at the ceiling as she stood up to start getting ready. The little plastic glow-in-the-dark stars were starting to peel off, she noticed. Maka shrugged and pulled on her usual outfit while she stretched out some more. The rest of her morning routine went smoothly, and she boarded the bus just like usual. There seemed to be absolutely nothing different about this day, in fact, it seemed almost too normal. Tsubaki calmly sat there, like usual, the bus driver silently drove, like usual, and the rest of the kids screamed and laughed and played, like usual! It was almost perplexing to see all these kids and not a single thing different about them.

As Maka walked into the school, she noticed that something was different: the hallways were longer! Or were they? Maka strolled the hallways, confused and trying to find her locker. It was hazy, maybe even misty, and she couldn't see anything clear enough to make it out. Kids continued to bump into her, but none of them ever said anything to her, and they were all walking the opposite direction. Maka shrugged and figured she would do as the Romans do and walk the opposite direction, too.

After walking for what seemed like hours, Maka ended up in the school's large cafeteria. Everybody was silent, not even exchanging looks. All their gazes landed on the same thing at the center of the cafeteria: a table. But perched on that table was Soul, and that blonde girl who always follows him around. Maka squinted her eyes at the two; it was so foggy that she could barely see. Her eyes strained, Maka pushed her way through the crowd until she finally made her way to the front. She stared at Soul and Blonde Girl until her eyes couldn't take the sight anymore and she looks away.

Up on that table, were Soul and the blonde girl. They were hugging, and kissing, and whispering sweet words of kindness and shit. Maka felt like she was about to cry.

"But why not me?!" she shouted at the two. "Why can't it be me?!" Tears were streaming down her face and she sobbed loudly, the haziness gaining until she was trapped in it, unable to hear or see anything anymore. She collapsed on the floor in a heap of anger and sorrow, unsure of what to feel or what to do. The white around her eventually turned to black until she was coughing and suffocating on the darkness. The light was all gone, and no one was around to save her from being consumed by darkness...

Maka gasped, trying to catch her breath as she sat up in her bed. She grabbed at the damp locks of blonde that were sticking to her shoulders and back. Little beads of sweat were forming on her forehead, so she wiped them away and stared at the buzzing alarm clock, confused at what just happened. Light was pooling into her room from the window and the smell of waffles wafted through the air. She shook her head, finally realizing that her suffocation was only a dream and climbing out of her bed.

Maka chewed her breakfast silently, still in deep thought. The dream had certainly given her ideas and thoughts about her feelings for Soul.

But did she like them?

HA. No.
