HEY! I didn't get enough reviews but still I want to update this. For the sake of the people who reads this. So, Here.
Disclaimer: I don't own Soul Eater, too bad.
Normal POV
Soul paused for a while, raising his hand up in the air and tried to catch his breath first.
"Can we *huff* pause for *huff* a while? *huff* I *huff* can't keep up *huff* with your pace." he complained. Maka placed her hands on her waists and tapped her toes impatiently.
"Are you an Old-geezer or what? Surprisingly you can't keep up with a GIRL'S running speed, eh?" Maka said sarcastically, trying to tease him.
"Surely you're not a boy in a girl's clothes are you?" he commented with a straight face that even made her more irritated.
"SAY THAT AGAIN AND I'LL RIP YOUR TONGUE OFF!" Maka scolded him and he just snorted and laughed. Maka pulled away and pouted.
"Geez, you only do make fun of me huh?"
"It's because I really find you funny." he said as he wiped the stray tears from laughing too much.
"WHAT?! grrr.. Now you've really done it." she said and pulled her sleeves up.
"Wa-Waiit!" he said as he placed his hands in front of her, trying to calm her down which she didn't notice as she continued to walk forward to him. Eventually, as what you would expect Soul's hands touched Maka's chests that made her pause and look down to what was touching her chest and saw Soul's hands.
"Ooh! You really must be a man in dis- Waaaa!" He tried saying but flew off when Maka's punch hit him.
"IYAAAAA!" she screamed as she threw the punch at an amazing force much stronger than a normal person, but naturally she didn't notice it for she was disturbed with the fact that Soul touched her chest.
"owowow .. Hey! That hur-" he was cut when he saw Maka curled up like a ball and sobbing.
"He-Hey .."
"Get away .. It's all over .." she said between her sobs.
"Wha-What is over?" he asked worriedly and confused.
"I said .. GET AWAY YOU PERVERT!" she screamed with her eyes squeezed close and somehow those words were like a spell that created Emerald glowing chains that bind Soul's body dragging him away from her, of course which is invisible to the naked eye of a normal human.
"Wa-Wait .. Wha-What are these?" Soul screamed as the chains bind him. Maka, on the other side just buried her face on her palms and sobbed again.
How? How can she perform a word binding spell? Who is she really? and on top of that, it's something I've never seen in the Demon Realm, it has a power sucking it's prisoner's own power sustaining it's binding strength.
Soul pondered as he was dragged by the chains.
"Maka! Release me .. I'm sorry okay? I didn't mean to do it.. so release me from these crazy chains .. It's sucking me dry." Soul called for her, but she wasn't listening at all, she was too disturbed.
Shit! If this goes on, I will surely be dead by morning and it has to be a death on the hands of a girl? She must be a Demon in human disguise too, who has come for my life.
Soul thought struggling to break free from the chain's binds.
Damn it! The more I struggle the more it's sucking up my energy.
He thought while desperately catching his breath as the chains suck up his energy.
"Da-Damn it, Maka.." Soul managed to voice before he lost consciousness. Maka, hearing it faintly, regained senses and opened her eyes, which automatically shut her powers off and un-summoned the chains binding Soul to death. She saw Soul estimating 12 meters away from her. She hurriedly dashed to his side when she saw the state his in which she unconsciously did. She picked him up and made him sit in a chair in a restaurant nearby. She fanned Soul and placed her wet handkerchiefs on his forehead thinking he just had a sudden collapse and cooling down his body would do the trick. Soul slowly regained his consciousness and woke up on Maka's laps. The first thing he saw was Maka's relieved, crying face. He slowly got up which made the wet handkerchief fall down from his forehead.
a cloth? and it's wet.
he thought while staring at the handkerchief. He suddenly felt arms wrap around his body and warm liquids wetting his shirt which made him flinch a bit.
"I-I'm so glad you woke up. I really don't know what I would do if you didn't woke up any sooner. I was even about to call an ambulance for you." He heard a sad, worried and sobbing voice. He smiled softly and placed his hands on top of her arms.
"I'm fine, see?" he said and broke the hug and faced Maka, hanging her head down. He held her chin and forced her to look at him in the eye. He saw tears flooding up her emerald orbs and wetting her cheeks. He wiped the tears away with his thumb and held her cheeks.
"Come on .. Stop crying, you're ruining the beauty of your eye." he said smiling. Maka surprisingly stopped crying and hiccupped.
"Wait here, I'll get something to drink." He said and let go of Maka's cheeks. He was about to leave when suddenly he felt his shirt getting tugged. He turned to the one responsible for it and saw Maka with puppy eyes.
"Don't go." She said and her Emerald Orbs glowed as if she made a spell on purpose. He flinched as he felt his body move on its own and walked close to Maka and wrapped his arms around her.
Wha-What the hell is with this spell?
"Co-Come on .. Why won't you stop crying?"
"I-I'm not crying anymore?"
"Then why won't you let me go and buy us something to drink?"
"I-I:m just afraid you'd collapse again." she said softly. Soul jolted and looked down at her.
She didn't know I collapsed when her chains sucked my energy?
"Wait Maka." Soul called and pulled away with great strength trying to keep the distance. She lifted her head with an inquisitive face.
"Yes?"
"Uhh .. You .. You don't remember what happened before I collapsed?" He asked and she shook her head in response.
"You .. You don't remember casting something?"
"No .. I don't .." She answered innocently.
What the hell?! She creates strong spells and UNCONSCIOUSLY? Is that even possible?
"Maka .. Who are you really?" Soul asked seriously.
"I am Maka .. Maka Albarn." She answered readily.
"No No No .. I didn't mean your name .. What I meant was, Who are YOU, or to clarify everything .. WHAT ARE YOU?" Soul asked and narrowed his eyes on her. She flinched and suddenly the force pulling him to her cut off. Soul let go of her shoulders and looked at his hands. Maka, on the other side felt really drowsy and fell. Luckily, Soul caught her.
"Maka .. What's wrong? Ma-" He was cut when he noticed her fast asleep.
"Wha-?" He exclaimed when Maka snuggled up on his arms. His gaze softened as he stared at Maka's sleeping face.
"Why? Why am I feeling something tight on my chest whenever I see you smile? Why do I always feel short of breath when you talk to me with those sweet eyes? Why do I feel pained when I hold you? Why can't I stop calling your name? Why is it that I want to hear your voice always? What have you done to me? Who are you to make me, the next crown prince of the Demon World, feel this way?" Soul monologue as he embraced the sleeping Maka tighter.
Maka's POV
I groaned as the sun shone on my face and rolled to my side when I hit something hard and warm. Curiosity got the best of me so I opened my eyes slowly and saw Soul's face, INCHES away!
Oh my Goodness!
"KYAAAAA!" I exclaimed as I wrapped the blanket covering us around my barely naked body and crawled backwards and fell on the hard wooden floor. Soul just groaned and rolled to his other side falling back asleep. I checked under the blankets and found myself nearly naked, I only had my last shirt out of my 3-layered uniform on and my skirt. I stared at myself horribly and glared daggers at the sleeping Soul. I flinched a bit before I mustered all my strength to support myself to stand up and walked towards him, who's half naked. I took in a deep breath.
"WAKE UP!" I screamed, making him jolt and spring up from bed.
"Wha-What's wrong? Is there a burglar? A fire?" he asked alarmed and seemed still half asleep.
"Do you see smoke?"
"No?"
"Do you see a trace of being robbed?"
"No."
"Then?"
"Oh! So there was none." He said as he staggered towards the bed and plopped back.
"Who told you to SLEEEP?" I screamed again. He jolted yet again and sat up, rubbing his tired eyes.
"Whot is wit?(What is it?)" He asked and yawned. I hugged the blanket even tighter.
"Di-Did something ... Did something happen ye-yesterday?" I asked softly and quietly, turning all red.
"What?" he asked and leaned in closer. I turned even redder.
"CAN'T YOU HEAR WHAT I ASKED DAMMIT? I ASKED WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY." I screamed and threw a pillow at his face which made him fall back to bed. He removed the pillow and rubbed his head before turning to me who is cherry red.
"Ah! Yesterday night, you mean?" he asked, confirming my question. I nodded softly and nervously.
"Hmm .. Well, you were quite bothersome. You won't stop clinging to me and you started taking off your clothes." he said as he tried to remember what happened. I stared at him horribly.
"Di-Did something happen between ... between us?" I asked horrified to hear his answer.
"Well, you were great, I admit." He said as he licked his lower lip and smirked. The tears that were threatening to fall, fell like waterfalls.
"Ma-Maka .. O-Oi." Soul voiced nervously when he saw Maka crying.
"I .. I'm dirty .. It's .. It's over." I voiced out between my sobs.
"Ma .. Maka.." he called my name and reached out for me.
"Get out."
"What?"
"GET THE HELL OUT!" I screamed and covered myself with the blanket. I heard him scream and suddenly got faint and then I heard a click.
"What .. What do I tell Mama?" I monologue.
"Maka .." I heard his voice again. I jolted and gripped the blanket tighter.
"I'm sorry." I heard him apologize. I sat up and saw him beside the bed with his head resting on top of his arms that were resting on the bed.
"What?"
"I'm sorry."
"For?"
"I lied."
"Lied?"
"Yeah .. Actually, nothing happened, it was just a lie.. but the part where you took your clothes off was true." he said and smiled apologetically. I remained silent, letting all he just said to me sink in and process it.
"WHAT?" I blurted when I finally got what he said.
"Why lie about it? Do you know what I felt with that joke of yours?" I complained as I hit him with a pillow.
"Well, you were cute so I couldn't help it." he said as he dodged the pillow and chuckled. I was taken aback with what he said.
Did he just say .. I'm cute?
I thought. I leaned in forward to him and narrowed my eyes on him.
"What did you say?" I asked trying to clarify if what I heard was right.
"I'm sorry I lied."
"No .. No, Not that .. The other one .. The reason why you lied?"
"Well, You were cute so I couldn't help but tease you a bit." I blushed upon clarifying it. I turned away, letting my let down hair covered my red face. My attention was caught by his clock ticking. I crawled to it and checked the time.
"hmm .. still 7 huh? .. Wait .. 7 ? Oh gosh! We've only got an hour to get to school!" I exclaimed to him and passed him his clock. I grabbed my clothes quickly and dashed downstairs. He dashed after me after changing into his clothes.
"Hey! Where are you going?" he shouted at me. I ran around his living room as I put my clothes on.
"What district is this?" I asked him below my clothes.
"Uhh .. 4th?" he answered in a confused tone.
"and Shibusen is in the first district .. and mine's .. 6th .." I said slowly and trolled. I flailed my arms around and slammed his door open.
"I need to get home and change into a new uniform. So go ahead." I cried before I dashed out.
"Wai-" I think he tried to stop me but rather too late I already turned around the block.
Curse it. Why do I have to fall asleep in his house? Now, I seriously am going to be late. Between the 4th and 6th district, usually, it takes 30 minutes if you go by foot but if I run I might be able to reach there about 15-20 minutes .. the problem lies on how I get to Shibusen in time.
I thought hopelessly and noticed my breathing and body got heavier and my movements slowed down.
tch .. I already am in 5th district already, 5 more blocks and I'll be ho-.
I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard the roaring sound of an engine rushing towards my direction.
"What now? Am I going to get a fatal injury and die in this car accident?" I monologue as I changed my direction and moved closer to the walls to avoid getting ran at. Good thing my agility was useful at that time.
"HEY!" A voice barely overlapped the roaring sound of engines. It seemed as if it was calling for me. I looked around me, above me and tried to turn to my back when a gust of wind passed by. I turned to what created the strong sudden gust of wind and saw him on top of a bike, looking so cool, no! too cool for words. I stared at him from head to toe.
"What?" he asked and brushed a hand through his beautiful silver hair.
"Ah .. No-Nothi-"
"Hurry up!"
"Eh?"
"You don't want getting late right? Emerald?" he asked and winked at me. I flinched and blushed the moment he looked away and walked to his bike, hopping on for a free ride.
"Uhh .. Tha-Thaaaaaaaaaaaaanks! Whooaa!" I exclaimed when he suddenly started the engine and sped up ahead.
"Which way?" he screamed through the deafening sound of the gust of wind.
"Turn right after the next block then turn left the 4th block. The second house of that block is my place." I screamed back as I wrapped my arms around his waist and held on tightly. Too tightly that I had to press myself against his back so that I won't fall off his bike. I am quite nervous that time, cause although it was to make it arrive in school on time, I still can't believe I'm actually hugging a boy aside from Wes. Well, as far as I could remember, Wes was the first boy I ever hugged, though I'm not that sure it was him and somehow, It kinda felt nice hugging this man than how I remember my first hug. I leaned my head against his back and accidentally heard his racing heart. Wait .. racing? Why is his heart beating so fast? Is it because his driving this in a light-speed? or is it because I'm here?
Haha .. Daydreamer aren't you?
My subconscious said in a mocking voice while smirking and fanning herself in an elegant way. I scoffed at the remark and just brushed it off my mind. In less than a minute, we arrived at my place. I hopped off the bike and made a dash in the house. I saw my Mom, from the corner of my vision, jolt when I slammed the door open.
"Maka?!" she asked in a groggy voice.
"Hi Mama! Good morning!" I cried as I passed by her, dashing straightly towards my room. I reached it in less than a minute and changed into a new uniform in a minute or so. I dashed down again and put my shoes back on.
"Wait! Maka!" Mama cried trying to stop me.
"Byebye Mama! Later! go Soul." I cried to her before hopping on in the back of Soul and started the engine, between the roaring sound of engine and waved her goodbye. Soul started to drive down the road and toward Shibusen. We only have less than 5 minutes to reach Shibusen and luckily, we already are in the 3rd district. We reached Shibusen about 2 1/2 minutes which leaves us with 2 1/2 minutes too to make a run for it. We hopped off his bike as he turned his bike off, while I grabbed his hand and dragged him towards the room. I slammed the door open, gasping for breath, still holding his hand with my other hand. Everyone stared at us in surprise, which includes the gang. I looked around and sighed in relief and closed my eyes when I couldn't sight Professor Stein.
"We're-" I paused when I opened my eyes and saw the gang staring intently at us. Their gazes drifted down and saw our hands joined together. All of a sudden a smirk appeared on their faces.
"That explains everything!" Black Star said and turned around, extending his arms and towed the others away. I turned to my side and turned red when I realized. I quickly let go of his hand and held my hand with my other hand and looked down. I paced towards my seat and sat peacefully, avoiding the suspicious gazes and whispers of my classmates. Soul followed behind and ran a hair on his silver hair, exhausted with all the marathon they did to reach in time. He sat behind her in a sloppy manner and leaned his face in his palm with his arm supporting him and faced me. I kept my face facing forward, desperately ignoring the urge to look at him and stare at those tantalizing red eyes and avoid him seeing me act weirdly. He cleared his throat as if asking my attention. I closed my eyes and breathe deeply and tried to erase his presence there, suddenly, a girl walked in. I looked around me to check why nobody seemed to mind her. Black Star and Tsubaki were playing jakenpon, Patty was busy drawing lots and lots of bears, Liz was too focused tending with her nails and Soul was STILL staring at me. I sweat-dropped at him and decided to just ignore him and observed the girl. She swiftly walked towards me when she met my eye. I stared at her as she passed by 3 rows and finally her whole body came into view. She was wearing a tattered dress and I just noticed that her hair was a mess. I stared at her from head to toe and let out a surprised gasp. She was FLOATING! Everyone turned to me quizzically as my chair rattled when I stood up in a rush.
"Wha-WHAT DO YOU WANT?" I practically screamed, letting all of my fear flow out in the form of tears. Everyone jolted after hearing me scream. Soul stood up and tried to reach me when I swung my arm.
"Go away! DON'T TOUCH ME!" Soul's hand twitched and he turned to where I was staring.
Normal POV
He broke the spell he cast on himself for a minute and saw what Maka was so afraid of, a mere Ghost. Soul sighed as he turned to Maka who was desperately squeezing her eyes close. Soul uttered a quick spell and briefly stopped the whole class' time which is weird because Maka's time didn't stop. He shrugged her for a moment and recited another spell that takes away any demonic energy which makes the ghost rampant. The ghost vanished like a smoke as her energies were drained and converted as his energy. Soul turned to Maka to check if she saw everything he did. But she was too busy crying her eyes out. He quickly released the Time-Sealing Spell which is consuming too much of his energy and resealed his demonic power causing his glowing bloody-red eyes to return to its crimson shade. He turned to Maka to comfort her when she suddenly collapsed. He quickly caught her and carried her in a princess carry amidst all those confused, malicious eyes. The gang stood up and followed him outside, being worried and all.
"Soul? What happened to Maka-chan?" Tsubaki asked, a hint of worry can be traced.
"Soul? Is Maka fine?" Black Star asked too, being his long-term friend, of course he'd worry so much.
"What's wrong with her anyway?" Kid asked.
"Yeah, she just screamed all of a sudden." Liz followed up.
"It really surprised me." Patty added.
"Well, she seem like she was looking at something." Tsubaki remembered.
"What could it -" Black Star was cut.
"WOULD YOU PLEASE SHUT UP? I'm trying to figure out what made her collapse so just shut up if you can't help." he said exasperated.
First, you bind me in an energy-sucking-chain, Second you took control of my body and third you sent me out of my own room through a portal. Are you really what I think you are Maka? What made you collapse Maka? What's wrong? Are you really a demon after all? Were you also affected with that spell? Damn, it's creating more and more questions on my head.
Soul thought as he laid Maka on a bed on the infirmary.
"The School Doctor's not here." Patty stated the obvious.
"I'll go seek the Doctor." Tsubaki suggested.
"I'll go with you. You need your GOD in times like this after all." Black Star said proudly. Together they moved out and searched for the School Doctor.
"Then, I shall go and fetch Maka an excuse slip so she would be excused. Would you want one as well?" Kid asked the dazed Soul. Soul didn't move nor twitch, it seemed as if he was lost in deep thoughts. Kid just moved out, followed by Liz. Patty moved out of the room too to fetch Maka and Soul's things. They just let Soul handle things with Maka since they seemed as if they were going out already. Patty slid the door shut and left Maka and Soul alone by themselves.
"Why? Why did you collapse? Was it really my fault after all?" Soul whispered softly as he gently strokes the stray lock of hair away from Maka's face. Maka groaned, as if she was running hard.
"Please .. Don't touch me .." she whispered.
"Maka!" Soul jumped from his seat.
"Don't touch me .. I SAID!" Maka exclaimed and opened her eyes, revealing her glowing Emerald eyes and emitted a strange light. Soul had to cover his eyes to protect it from the blinding light Maka just unleashed. Slowly, the light died down and Maka fell back to bed.
"Maka .. That light .. What was that light just now?" Soul managed to voice amidst being perplexed.
"Yes! She really was the one! I found her! AHAHAHAHA" a voice from far away chuckled demonically.
