Chapter Four - 'Maps Home'
Maka's heart was fluttering. She couldn't help but smile. Black Star had just asked her to be his girl, something she never would of imagined.
Maka always pictured herself with Soul. He was her best friend; he understood her or atleast she thought he did.
Black Star was completely different from Soul though. Within hours of Soul tearing apart her heart, Black Star had managed to pick up the pieces and put them all back into their Star leaned in a bit towards Maka.
She really does look beautiful tonight...
Maka felt this weird presence pushing her closer towards Black Star, their faces almost brushing past each other's. Their faces both turning a hot shade of pink. Closing his eyes, he pressed his lips onto hers into a gentle kiss. Leaning into their kiss, Maka cupped his warm yet soft cheek.
Both pulling away slowly, Maka felt a mixture of emotions. She just couldn't believe how wonderful their first date was going.
"Black Star..." She started to say, her adorable green eyes staring into his.
"Yes Maka..."
"Thank you" She smiled, her heart beat slowing down.
"Why don't I walk you home now, this place is starting to give me a headache." Black Star said stretching.
...
They walked towards Maka house; the streets were a bit darker than usual. Maka found this as the perfect opportunity to hold Black Star's hand, but how could she do it? Would it be weird...?
Duhh, of course not. Black Star is my boyfriend...
Her body shivered at her thought. She still couldn't believe that he was her boyfriend. Her palms started sweating, now she was too nervous to grab his hand.
Get it together Maka, before you lose your chance...
Her mind screamed at her to move her hand but she just couldn't. Every time she wanted to, her eyes would close shut.
Black Star couldn't help but notice how awkward Maka was acting. He hoped he didn't do anything wrong. Was he moving to fast with her? Was that it?
"Maka... is something wrong?" He asked concern. They were getting closer to her house.
Maka opened her eyes, she felt embarrassed. Now she definitely couldn't hold his hand.
"Nothing is wrong..." She sighed,
I'm a failure...
Black Star then placed his hand into hers.
"Are you sure Maka?"
Maka's hearts stopped. "How did you do that?!" They stopped walking.
"How did I do what?" He was so confused.
"You held my hand, how did... I mean...I was trying to..." Stumbling on her sentences, Maka couldn't make out what she wanted to say. The more frustrated she got the cuter she became to Black Star, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Why didn't you just grab my hand if you wanted to hold it?" He asked.
"I was trying..." Maka pouted, she couldn't stand how easy he made it seem. Didn't he know how he made her feel on the inside? Something like holding hands with someone as special as a boyfriend isn't easy!
Black Star kissed her cheek, not wanting her to think he wasn't making fun of her. "You can hold my hand whenever you want to Maka, I wont push it away if that's what you're worried about." He said, her hand still in his.
They continued walking until they reached Maka's house. Secretly, Maka never wanted them to stop walking. The night she spent with Black Star was perfect, absolute bliss. Maka walked over towards her door, then turned back to look at her boyfriend.
"Black Star...tonight was..." Right before she could finish her sentence, Black Star pulled her into another kiss. Maka's heart was going to explode, in fact everything he did always made her heart feel that way.
"...Perfect." she said after their kiss ended. Black Star stared into her eyes and just smile.
"What?" Maka noticed him staring.
Black Star snapped back to reality. "Nothing... its late, you should really go inside now. Ill see you tomorrow Maka." A light blush shading his cheeks. He kissed her forehead before she walked into her home.
...
Making his way home, Black Star felt on top of the world. He breathed in, taking in the fresh night air. Everything was perfect. Maka was his.
"Hey, Black Star!" He heard someone calling from behind him. The voice smacking him back to reality. "What do you think you're doing?"
Black Star stopped and turned to the figure talking to him. "Oh, Soul... I'm walking home..." it looked a bit obvious what he was doing. Where else would he be going at a time like this?
"Not literally you idiot... I mean what do you think you're doing with Maka?" Soul asked a little annoyed.
"How did you know I was with Maka?"
"Don't worry about it..."
"Then don't worry about why I was with Maka." Black Star said back. He turned around and started walking again.
Soul was furious, Black Star was playing games with him and that wasn't cool. Aggravated, Soul walked over towards Black Star and turned him around.
"Leave Maka alone, or else." Soul said his eyes raging with anger. Black Star could see how serious Soul was but he didn't understand why. After tonight, Maka was his. This little threat wasn't enough to intimidate Black Star.
"Or else what?" Black Star simply said.
Soul honestly didn't think that Black Star would answer back that way. In his mind, he wanted Black Star to assure him that nothing was going on between him and Maka but that wasn't what he was getting.
Soul's silence spoke enough for Black Star. "Maka is mine, dude. You leave her alone or else..."
