AN: Sorry about the wait my dears, I've just been a bit busy. My depression is just beating me to the ground and the usual feelings of helpless an hopelssness are steadily coming back ^^; But! I don't want to be useless, so here you are my lovlies, the fourth installment of my rewritten story, A Song! :D

Oh noooo Soul and Maka flirt that's so hooorrible [sarcasm].

-o-o-o-

Despite Maka questioning where I was, last night went off without much of a hitch.

I walked in at eight on the dot and when I saw she was setting the table, I couldn't help but feel a bit guilty - we usually made dinner together. I quickly told her that I went to Black Star's place to play video games, and she believed it. She was a bit fussy that I came home so late, but it was just normal Maka tendencies.

Her lights went off at nine and I chuckled as I wrote on a piece of paper. I had to get the lyrics on the paper at some point, so why not?

And now, after going to bed at about 12:40, I rubbed my sore eyes and yawned as we walked up the numerous amount of stairs. Other students were straggling along side with us, but thankfully not many. Maka had the uncanny ability to wake up at 5 and wake me up by 7 after she did her morning routine. Usually I'd join her during her workout, but I just couldn't get up... She had asked if I was feeling okay to which I said, "Yeah, just a late night."

"And that's why I go to bed at 9."

Maka did have a health schedule that hadn't changed since we moved in together, but it wasn't what other 18 year olds' did. I considered myself a night person as is, but anyone who could sleep at 9? I would praise them before calling them a friggin dork.

I didn't regret it though. I got to finishing up the first and second verse, a bridge and a chorus. I just had to finish up the third and then tweak it. I should get to the music room today...

"Soul, where are you going?"

I snapped quickly to attention, seeing that I was about to enter the ladies room with her.

She smirked, something I can proudly say she picked up from me, saying, "I knew you were a perv, but how about you wait out here?"

I felt my cheeks heat up before I scoffed, rolling my eyes and looked to the side. "Whatever, just hurry up."

She raised an eyebrow and went in. I went to the pillar a ways away and leaned against it, closing my eyes. The words were rushing through my head, and if you listened hard enough, you could hear me humming.

Unfortunately for me, someone was listening.

"Oh ho ho, Soul? You're still at it, huh?"

I flinched and quickly straightened myself out. I sighed when it was only Tsubaki. "What are you talking about?"

She giggled, leaning against the pillar with me. "You're song that you're gonna use to serenade Maka."

I could feel my brain imploding while my face flushed. "Dammit Tsubaki..." I sighed and crossed my arms, looking away from her. Her giggles felt all too loud,

"Oh come on, stop pouting, I think it's adorable."

"Not what I'm going for here."

She scoffed and shoved my arm. "Yeah, well, sorry but it is. And Maka will love it almost as much as - "

I glanced over at her and her rigid posture. I raised an eyebrow, heat transferring from my face to hers. "What's that?"

"Nothing," she answered all too quickly.

"You were... about to say something."

"N-No, I wasn't!"

I pinned her to the pillar, a hand on her shoulder as I glared at her.

Her face flushed even more and she rolled her eyes before motioning me to come closer. I smirked, of course she would tell me once I got her uncom -

"I'm never, ever going to tell you my friends secrets."

I gaped at her as she fluidly moved out of my grasp, quickly joining Black Star on the other side of the hall. I had my hand grasping at air before I leaned heavily against. God dammit...

"Ready to go?"

I stood up and sighed, rubbing the bridge of my nose. "Yeah... I can already tell it's gonna be a long day..."

Maka touched my arm lightly, looking at me with her big green eyes. "What makes you say that? Are you sure you're okay Soul?"

I chuckled and wrapped an arm around her shoulders. "Yeah, yeah, I'll be fine, just tired."

She smiled and lightly held my hand that rested on her shoulder. "You should sleep with me then."

I gasped before barking out a laugh. She turned cherry red as we approached our first period class. Maka pinched my hand, her face twisting in embarrassment. "Oh come on, I mean sleep at the same time with me idiot..."

I wiped a tear from my eye with my free hand, laughter dying down before saying, "I might take you up on your.. offers."

I was Maka chopped.

And thus began the start of a long day.
