Hello! ^-^ Thank you for all your kind reviews! It really brought my spirits up. I just finished testing -3- I am so glad I can finally update. Any-who on with the story...
Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater.
{No one's point of view}
Maka ran her fingers along the spines of the many books of the library while humming to herself. Aha! Found it. Maka thought as she found the book she was looking for. She went to the sitting area and sat down next to the couch unaware a certain boy watching her through the bookshelf.
{Kid's point of view}
I walked towards the library Liz and Patty on either sides of me.
"Why did you guys come with me? I didn't know you guys liked books." I said.
"Of course not baka~. I came here with you to get ideas for the play. I want to check out some romance novels." Liz said.
"Oooh sis do you think they have books on giraffes?!" Patty said excitedly.
"Of course they do Patty, it's a library." Liz said.
"Well here we are girls." I said as I pushed the door open. "Patty please don't cause troub-" Before I could continue I realized both my partners were gone. Oh well. I walked along the shelves picking up a few books. Then as I took out a book I saw through the slit noticing the pigtailed blode sitting down, smiling as she flipped the pages of the book she was reading. I felt something inside me flutter. I didn't know whether to go talk to her or not. I found myself blushing. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned around to see Liz grinning.
{Liz point of view}
"Kid your blushing like an idiot. Just go talk to her already." I said smirking
"It's not that easy Liz, not after what I did. I can't believe I even did that." Kid said memory flashing through his eyes.
"Hmmm." I thought then came up with a brilliant idea.
"What if you make her fall in love with you then tell her how you feel. You can drop hints that you were that mystery guy from the ball." I said excitedly. I made up my mind, operation-get-Maka-to-fall-in-love-in-the-most-romantic-way-possible-with-Kid was a go.
"Wha-" Kid started saying before I cut him off.
"Come on. It will be fun and cute like in romance novels." I could already see it, Maka and Kid walking hand in hand through a flower field, Kid confessing and saying the three magical words, Maka blushing as Kid leans in for a k- KYAAA! Yes! Just thinking about is brings a smile to my face.
"I don't know Liz." KId said.
"Too bad it's been decided. You don't want to see Soul steal her away do you?" Kid stayed silent. "Don't worry Kid i'll help you." I could feel a frin forming on my face.
"*sigh* okay." Kid said,"Where do we start?"
{Kid's point of view}
I walked around the corner towards were Maka was sitting. Confidence. Come on Kid have confidence, I repeat in my head, what happened to the confidence from that night? Gah! That's because I was covered with that mask. Then I even smelled her hair and took her ribbons. Her ribbons! That's it!
"Umm... Hello Maka." I said
Maka looked up from her book surprised flickered through those beautiful eyes of hers.
{Maka's point of view}
I looked up at the sound of my name surprised to see golden eyes looking at me. Such pretty eyes, I could've sworn I've seen them before. Huh? Oh it's Kid, of course that's why. I sigh inwardly.
"Oh hello Kid." I say. I noticed Kid had a small tint of pink on his cheeks but I decide to ignore it.
"Hi Maka w-what book are you r-reading?" Kid stuttered. How cute. Wait what!?
"Oh i'm reading Alice in Wonderland. My mother used to read it to me when I was small." I say smiling at the memory.
"Really? I used to read it too! Well among all the other books I read. Heh, I was quite a lonely child since my father was, well is always working." He said.
"Oh." I say.
"Anyways Maka would you like to come with Liz, Patty, and I to my house? We can rehearse a little." Kid blushed, "Well we don't have to rehearse if you don't want to. We can just read our books or something-"
I chuckled, it was funny how Kid acted when he was nervous, he always seemed so serious about everything. "It's fine Kid. Besides I really need more rehearsal, I'm pretty sure you noticed by now but i'm bad at acting."
Kid chuckled lightly, "Me too, and the moves Liz makes us dance makes it worse for all of us."
"Not really. I mean i'm okay with danc-" Now it was my turn to blush.
"Hi-ah Kid and Maka!" Patty said popping out of nowhere.
"Patty how long were you standing there?" Kid asked.
"Long enough for me and Liz to hear Maka is joining us! Come on let's go I have some reading on giragffes to do." The blue eyed girl said grabbing both the meisters' arms as she dragged them out of the library.
"Let's go~" the twin pistols said in unison.
[Gallows Manor- in the ball room]
"Maka spin!" Liz yelled. Maka did as told as Kid twirled her. The first few days of rehearsal was filled with awkward lines and dancing but now the two meisters were dancing grace fully, their movements fit perfectly together. Near the end of the song(currently playing on the mini speaker Liz owned), Maka found herself near the floor as Kid held her leaning downward, similar to the way the mystery guy that held Maka at the ball.
{Maka's point of view}
I felt my heart thumping really bright. This pose felt some how familiar. Then I remembered. I realize our movements felt familiar too, I can tell now that Kid now longer felt awkward. Instead a look of determination filled his eye. Is this my imagination. No, deep down I know it's not.
"Umm Kid?" I say realizing how odd my voice sounds, almost seems, flustered. Kid pulls me up.
"How about we take a break. I should go prepare dinner." Kid said. For some reason I feel disapointed.
{Kid's point of view}
After we invite Maka to join us we had a peaceful dinner. Everything was going well until...
"Hey Kid what did you do the night of the masquerade ball? I didn't see you there." Maka said as I choked on the glass of water i was drinking. My weapons looked at me alarmed. She looked at me concerned, before she can ask if I was okay I said,
"I'm fine. Sorry you just surprised me a bit. Does it matter?" I say calmly.
"No...just wondering..." Maka said. I thought I saw suspicion flicker through her eyes.
"I just stayed home and read." I lie, hoping she bought it.
"Oh." I know I saw doubt in her eyes for half a sec. Crap! She's suspicious. But why? Did I give it away some how? We start to walk towards the ballroom to rehearse our lines this time.
"Oh I forgot my lines in my room. I'll come back." I say.
"I'll come with you." Liz says. "I need to talk to you about ermm your lines."
"Okay." I say.
{Maka's point of view}
Ugh, I feel something flutter in me as I watch Liz go after Kid. Why is she lying. I could tell when people lie by looking at their souls. Why did he lie too? What did he do that night, he may not me that mystery guy but he's hiding something. Does it have to do with Liz? Is that why they are being secretive about something? I start to panick for some reason.
"Oh~ I sense that a certain giraffe is jealous." I jump at Patty's comment.
"I-i'm not jealous." I stutter.
"I never said it was you. he he~" Patty says smiling.
"Gah! I'm going home. Soul is probably worried about me. I forgot today's my turn to cook dinner!" I say rushing as I grab my stuff.
"No worries Maka~ i won't tell anyone." Patty says making a zipping motion over her mouth as it closes.
"Uhh... okay." I say as I go out the door into the night.
Thanks for the reviews guys, it makes me happy ^-^
Bye~
