I'll be waiting!" Maka said, than turned around and found herself face to face with Soul.
"So you going on a date with Kid tonight?"
"Sure looks that way huh?"
They all made it just in time for class to start. And that's when they remembered that the test was filled in the answers easily and so did Kid and Tsubaki. Black Star and SOul along with Liz and Chrona knew some of the answers. Patti focused on making a 3 dimensional duck to go with her girrafe.
When class was over, Maka stretched, and stood up to hand her test in.
"How do you think you did Maka?" asked Soul.
"Fairly well how bout you?"
"Pretty damn good I'd say.
The rest of the day went pretty, nothing really happened, blah blah blah.
After school though, Soul and Black Star had to clean the classroom.
Maka got home and found two packages a her doorstep, one from papa and one from mama. Suddenly, Maka realized that today was her birthday.
She went inside and tore open the package from papa. It was a book, a wrinkle in time by Madeline L 'Engle.
She opened her package from mama next. A pair of black denim jeans shorts that were about three inches long, along with a dark red tank top, were all the boxes held. No letters. Nothing. Maka closed her eyes. She found a piece of paper, and began to write. Whenever she got angry, she wrote. She crumpled up the paper, and aimed for the wastebasket. She missed. But she ignored that fact. She'd get it later.
"This outfit is perfect for tonight!" Maka said, holding up the red top.
When she got into her room, she also found a present from Blair. Inside of it, Lingerie. Push up bras and thongs. Maka sure didn't know about the thongs, but she did decide to wear a new got a shower, brushed her dirty blonde hair, and made it wavy. She decided to keep it down though. She pulled on a pair of sandals, and sat waiting for Kid. At precisely 5 o clock, the doorbell rang. Maka walked slowly to the door, trying not to make herself look to eager. She opened the door to find Kid, looking a lot more casual than he normally did. He had black jeans on, and a white t-shirt.
"hey kid." She said, looking at him. He seemed... speechless.
"What do you think of my outfit? My mom sent it to me for my birthday."
"You look gorgeus. You always do" Said Kid, trying to stay neutral.
Maka smiled. His eyes told her everything.
They walked to the carnival from there. Kid looked around at the sun, that was just beginning to set. He sighed.
They got to the carnival, not saying anything on the walk over, just noticing each others presence seemed to be enough.
"What ride do you want to go on?" Kid asked her, after they had gotten tickets.
"Um, actually, the Zipper would be fun to ride." Maka said with a smile.
They got to the ride, and stood in line for a very short while.
When it was their car, they climbed in.
"Number 2! Maka cried. "Whenever Soul and I would ride this, we always waited for number two. I would sit where your sitting, and SOul woul sit where I am."
Suddenly, Maka notice something. someone had written in Black Sharpie Marker. SoulxMaka forever. And it was circled with a heart.
Soul and Maka had a very good time, actually. They rode on the gravitron, the scrambler, the salt n pepper shaker, and anything that gave them some sort of head rush.
Afterwards they got funnel cake and looked up at the moon and stars. The moon had always scared Maka a little, and she told kid this. He gave her shoulder aa reasuring squeeze.
"Let's go on one more ride." He said. "How about the ferris wheel?"
"Sounds like fun!" Maka said happily.
The ferris wheel was large and old fashioned. It turned very slowly and often got jammed, wheras people got stuck for a while. Only very few people rode on this which made the lines a lot shorter. It had open seats, and could fit no more than two people, but still went very high.
Kid and Maka were forced to squish together, which was no problem for either of them. They looked up at the moon, and Maka shivered. Kid carefully put his arm around her shoulder, and she snuggled into him comfortably. Kid glanced at Maka, and had to admit he was pleased to see the distance between Maka and the end of the seat were far apart. She was snuggling with him because she wanted to, not because she had to. suddenly, the ferris wheel stopped. Maka closed her eyes and curled closer next to Kid. Even summer nights were very chilly at night, and both of them were cold. Kid pointed out constellations to pass the time.
Maka was actually always interested in constellations, but never knew them well enough to point them out by name.
Suddenly, Maka noticed a burst of color. Fireworks! It was a fairy tale moment. Stuck on the top of a rickety ferris wheel, a chilly night, constellations, snuggling, and fire works. The only thing missing was...
She glanced at Kid, who was staring at her out of the corner of his eyes. When he saw Maka look at him, he turned his face towards her, a lazy half smirk on his face.
Maka leaned towards Kid who watched, unmoving as a deer surrounded by wolves. Watching her. Than he began to lean towards her as well. An inch before their lips met, they looked into each others eyes, feeling the others breath on their face, enjoying that tension in the air before the first kiss.
Thats when their lips met. It felt like an electric shock through her body. she leaned closer to Kid, and he towards her. Than the ferris wheel jerked to motion, tossing the two apart.
They dismounted from the ferris wheel, and began their walk to Kid's house.
He had suggested she spend the night with Liz and Patty. "They adore you, you know. You and Tsubaki are their only gal pals right now"
They walked silently, and Kid went up to a rose bush. He plucked the pink rose, than another. He gave one of the pink rose to maka, than took the other in his hands. Somehow, he was able to change it to black. He calmly turned it over in his hands, and picked Maka's pink rose gently from her hand. He said a few words, and suddenly the rose was pink with numerus black streaks through it.
"Happy Birthday." He said. "It will never wilt, but it is slightly fragile, like glass almost."
"I'll always treasure it." She said gently.
They got to Kids house, and Kid unlocked the door. Maka walked in and turned the light on.
"SUPRISE!" yelled Black Star, Tsubaki, Soul, Liz, Patty and Chrona. "Happy birthday Maka!"
The suprise party they had planned was amazing. They had cake, and hung out. When it was about midnight, Patty made a really good suggestion.
"Let's go for a midnight swim outside! We can turn the light on in the pool, and make everything else dark!"
"That's actually a really good idea patti." Liz told her, patting her on the head. "What do you think, Maka? Your the birthday girl!"
"It sounds like a lot of fun!" Maka said.
She borrowed a bikini from Patti, a blue one with a top that instead of normal straps, tied around the neck.
Tsubaki borrowed a swimsuit from Liz, purple with a large hole showing her belly button.
Liz wore a red bikini, and patty wore a pink one.
Chrona, Soul, and Black Star borrowed some from Kid, Soul had red trunks, Black Star wore dark blue, Chrona had grey ones, and kid wore black.
When the girls got down, all the boys except for Chrona were swimming. "Chrona, don't you know how to swim?" Liz asked gently. Chrona shook his head and looked shyly up at her.
"Cmon, I'll teach you!" She gently pulled him into the water,holding him up so he didn't drown.
"Cmon in Maka!" Yelled Soul, grabbing her by the feet and yanking her in. She laughed along with everyone else. While everyone was in the pool, Kid silently suggested that they step out for a minute.
They moved towards a back alley where they stood alone.
"Maka, I-I hate to ask you this, but theres something that as long as I've known you, I've wanted to do."
Maka gulped, as silently as she could, but tried a reasuring smile. "Sure. Im yours."
Kid leaned towards her, anticipation in his eyes. Maka squinched her eyes shut, fully expecting him to start taking off her bathing suit. But no. Instead, he gently wrapped his armes around her waist and kissed her gently. Maka put her arms around his neck and began to kiss back. She opened her mouth, and Kid took the hint, sliding his tongue inside. Maka loved that feeling. It was enticing.
Too soon, Kid let Maka go. "We'd better get back before your missed.
"Oh, but she already is." Said a voice behind them. They turn around and see Soul.
"Kid, could you give me and my meister a moment?" Asked Soul.
Kid looked at Maka, and she nodded.
He turned and walked away.
Soul stared into Maka's green eyes, and she looked into his red ones.
"Maka, don't you have better things to do than stick your tongue down another meister throat? On the ferris wheel, was that your first kiss together, or have there been others?"
"H-how did you kno-"
"Maka, how do you think we were ready for you the moment you two stepped in? They sent a spy of course. Me. I followed you guys around, so when you were about five minutes away, I'd tell them and they'd get ready. I saw everything Maka. And it was sickening."

Soul turned and walked away.
Maka headed back to the party, and jumped into the pool, doing a perfect cannonball.
She swam to the side of the pool and sighed. She didn't enjoy her party quite so much as she had hoped.
People began to leave the pool, first patti, than Liz and Chrona, than a while later, Soul. After that, Tsubaki and Black Star. Soon Kid and Maka were alone.
Maka swam over to the small bench in the pool and looked up at the sky.
"whats wrong, Maka?" Kid asked.
"Nothing, its just that... why do guys cheat so much on their girlfriends, wives... you know? In so many hollywood stories, tiger woods... you know, they all cheated. Like my papa did to my mama... I don't understand."
"well..." Kid began, putting his arm around her. "I don't know how to explain, being that I have no idea myself. Personally, I think it's something about pride, or making themselves feel better about themselves. If someone besides their wife or girlfriend thinks their attractive... well it's good for the ego, really. Thats just a theory, and not a very good one at that, but thats all I got." He hugged her close to him, and kissed her gently on the forehead. "But I can promise you something, if it makes you feel less worrisome, I have not, i am not, and I will not, cheat on you ever. Thats a promise.
Maka and Kid shared the same bed, the same way as last time, but this time, instead of going to sleep right aways, they held each other close and kissed gently. Kid wrapped his arms around maka, and she snuggled into his chest.
