Kid woke up to the smell of something burning in the kitchen. He sat up quickly and looked in the direction of the kitchen to see that Soul was cooking.
"What on earth are you doing?" Kid asked.
"Making Maka breakfast." He said.
Kids eye twitched feeling some pity for Maka. He stood up and walked over to see what Soul was making. "Is that burnt ham?" he asked.
"No, it's eggs sunny side up." Soul responded.
"Ew." Kid said. "Maybe you should take Maka out for breakfast today."
Soul looked down at the so called breakfast that he was making and then noticed how bad it was. "Yeah, maybe we should." He said throwing the 'egg' away and turning off the stove. "Sorry, I'm usually not this distracted." He mumbled.
Kid's eyebrows rose. "Why would you have to be distracted?" he asked.
"I have to start over again, and well Maka isn't exactly happy that I exist right now…" Soul trialed off.
"She'll forgive you sooner or later. You are her weapon." Kid said pulling out a chair and sitting down. "What time is it?" he asked yawning.
"It's six in the morning." Soul said yawning.
"What are you doing up at six in the morning?" Kid exclaimed.
"It's not exactly the weekend you know, Maka and I have to go to school. I'm not sure about you." Soul said as he went to knock on Maka's door. "Time to get up Maka." Soul called out with a small yawn, brushing his hair back with his fingers.
"I'm up." Soul heard Maka mumble from the other side of the door.
Soul lifted his hand to press it against the door and let his fingers linger there. He tightly shut his eyes and shook his head, his hand turning into a fist and he quickly walked back to his room slamming the door shut.
Kid watched the whole thing happen, curiosity filling him. "They live together, something is bound to happen." He said to himself as he fixed himself a cup of coffee.
As he took a sip out of the coffee Maka walked out of her room glancing at Soul's door.
Kid saw her hand twitch, and saw her rush to the bathroom and slam the door.
Just then Soul walked out, dressed and ready to go, grabbing his keys. "Hurry up Maka!" he called out and turned to face Kid. "Make yourself at home and tell Maka that I'm waiting for her outside." Soul said stuffing his hands into his jacket pocket and walked out of the apartment slamming the door behind him.
"What is up with him and slamming doors?" Kid asked with a roll of his eyes as he took another sip from his coffee.
Maka ran out of the bathroom and grabbed a few textbooks. "I forgot… you go to the DWMA right?" she asked him before she opened the door to the apartment.
"Yeah, but school doesn't start until seven." He said looking at a clock that was hanging on the wall.
"Yeah, but I have to introduce you to some friends of mine. Come on, let's go." She said flashing him an excited smile.
"I'll see you at school then, I have to finish my coffee." He said taking another sip.
"Fine then, see ya!" she exclaimed closing the door behind her.
Maka ran down the stairs when she realized that she would have to ride with Soul. Before Maka could exit the doors she was debating on whether she had a chance to go out the back door. "No. You'll have to confront him sooner or later." She muttered to herself as she walked out the front door with her head held up high.
"Hurry up Maka." Soul said from the motorcycle.
Maka's courage went south for the winter. "Uh… I feel like walking to the DWMA today." Maka said stretching and walking in the other direction quickly.
Maka heard the motorcycle engine roar next to her but she just looked the other way.
"Maka, I know you're mad at me but-" Soul was cut off by a glare sent his way from Maka.
"I'm going to walk." She growled.
"Maka get on the motorcycle, you haven't eaten breakfast yet." Soul said.
"What does one thing have to do with the other?" she asked.
"I'm taking you out to eat." He responded.
Maka could imagine the awkwardness already. "I'm not hungry." She said just as her stomach growled.
"Maka." Soul warned.
Maka's stomach growled again and she sighed. "Fine." She mumbled as she walked to the motorcycle and hopped onto it but refused to hold onto Soul.
"Maka, hold on… or do you want to crack your head open?" he asked.
Maka huffed but wound her arms around his waist. She felt a shiver go through Soul but she ignored it and just watched all of the cars pass by.
