A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and body...
The next day, Tsubaki and Maka were seated cross legged in the dance-studio type of room.
"So where were you last night?" Tsubaki asked. "I was worried, you didn't leave a note or something."
"I went out ti get coffee. I'm sorry for making you worry Tsubaki." Maka said sincerely.
"It's alright." Tsubaki said with a warm smile.
"So... what did you and Blackstar do last night?" Maka asks tilting her head to the side and smirking at a blushing Tsubaki.
"Ummm... W-We just ate dinner." Tsubaki stuttered looking down at her sweaty palms.
"You like him." Maka said bluntly after observing her friend.
Tsubaki blushed even more. "Maka, please don't tease me like that."
Maka laughs and puts her right hand to her chest. "I promise not to tease you... anymore for the rest of the day."
Tsubaki smiled at this. She was grateful to have such cheery friend. "By the way... Asuko was looking for you yesterday."
Maka was surprised. "He was? Why would he ask for me?" Maka asked bill withered and a bit flattered.
Tsubaki shook her head. "I don't know, although the girls that were following Asuko weren't very happy thou." She said motioning to the nearby group of girls that were giving Maka dagger eyes.
Maka glanced at them and looked back at Tsubaki. "Ohhh... Isn't it nice Tsubaki? I'm popular."
"They say Asuko's a major playboy. Especially with his suitors but apparently he's been avoiding them and is running after you." Tsubaki explained.
Maka didn't know what to feel about that but it was nice to feel that your being wanted.
"You should be careful okay, Maka?"
She smiled at her friend and nods.
"But you know... In my opinion you should go talk to him. Give him a chance. You'll never know, you know." Tsubaki continued.
Maka was startled at her friends suggestion.
"It was only a suggestion!" Tsubaki yelled taking back what she said.
Maka thinks this through. Asuko did know the school better than she did, and he knew more people around Death city, he could be an amazing help for her secret mission. "I guess i should. It wouldn't hurt to try and what do i have to lose?"
Tsubaki nods in agreement.
"Alright! Settle down!"
*Silence.*
"Good. Lets start our lesson. Our lesson today will be about the abilities of a perfectly aligned partners. You see, If you align your wavelengths with each other even if you dont apply any force on the weapon it will move."
*Silence*
"But in order for this to happen the connection between the two of you must be unbreakable. The pair must allow themselves to be one."
The following day Maka woke up to a Saturday morning in an room with no Tsubaki and a paper on her desk saying that Tsubaki was with Blackstar for the whole weekend.
Maka's heart fell, she wanted to spend the weekend with Tsubaki. She shakes this off. "It's okay, Maka. Just enjoy the weekend... Alone." She told herself.
Maka got dressed and headed for the dormitory restaurant. She opened the door to find girls giving her death glares.
"Okay... I think i'll eat somewhere else then."
Maka found herself roaming through town. She closed her eyes and breathed in. She missed Tsubaki, she missed Kid and she missed Soul. She hated the fact that she couldn't do anything about any of her problems. She realized that walking with closed eyes wasn't very bright, deciding to open her eyes, she suddenly smacked in a wall of muscle. She crashed down the ground.
"Oww..."
"Maka! Are you alright?" Said the walking wall.
She opened her eyes and saw Asuko looking down at her. He knelt down and placed his hands on her shoulder. "I'm fine." She managed to say still dazed. She pulled herself up and forced a smile. "See. I'm absolutely fine."
Asuko stood up and said, "Are you sure?"
"Yup." She answered.
"Alright then." He raised an eyebrow. "What on earth are you doing here anyway? You're quite far from the girls dormitory you know."
Her jaws dropped. "Really? I am? I've only been walking for a few minutes." She explains.
"It seems like you were in deep thought." He observes.
"I w-was... actually deep thought."
"Something the matter?" he asks in a concerned voice.
"Oh, ummm... no. Nothings wrong."
He sighs. "I won't push you in to telling me something you don't want to tell." He says with an understanding smile.
She smiles back at him.
*Growls*
She blushes furiously holding her stomach. She forgot, she hasn't eaten breakfast yet.
"Have you eaten yet?" He asks locking his eyes on her.
"Oh, uh... No..." She says shamefully.
He smiles but she could still see the concern on his face. "Come with me. I know a great cafe just a few blocks away." He said holding her arm and gently dragging her.
Asuko brought her to this homely cafe. They went in and walked to the counter.
"Asuko maboy! It's good to see you." Says the old man sitting behind the counter.
"Good morning, Cyril. Pleasant seeing you again." Asuko says nonchalantly.
Cyril tilted his head to the side and eyed Maka with his gentle mocha eyes.
"That's a fine young girl you have their." He says with a warm smile.
"Oh, Yes, Cyril this is Maka. Maka this is Cyril, the cafe owner." Asuko motioned to Cyril.
Upon hearing the introduction Cyril frowned. "The cafe owner? That's how your going to introduce me?"
"Well then, what do you want me to say?" Asuko snapped back.
Cyril sighs in frustration and forced a smile and said, "Never mind, Please take a seat."
"It's a pleasure meeting you, Cyril." Maka says with a sweet smile.
Cyril returns the smile. "Likewise."
Asuko lead her to a table near the counter. He pulled out her chair and motioned for her to sit. She obediently sits down awkwardly and glances at the other customers. The cafe had about a dozen smiling customers. The cafe wasn't as high class as the dormitory restaurant but the cafe had this homey and comfortable feel to it.
Asuko takes his seat across from Maka and clears his throat. "I'm sorry for dragging you in here." He says, while shifting from his seat.
"I get dragged all the time." Maka points out.
He looks startled and says, "I think i'm going to need a map."
"A-A map? Sooo... off topic."
"Yes, if you don't mind. I'm afraid, without a map, i might get lost in your eyes."
Maka's eyebrows raises and she laughs hysterically saying, "Does that pick up line usually work?"
Asuko immediately blanked, noting that Maka wasn't even phased. He coughed and said, "Not really sure if they do... but, if the effort I'll have to put in is the same as your level of cuteness, I might have to overexert myself this time."
Maka smirks at him, "What cheesy pick up lines! I have to say, they don't work for you."
Asuko blushes furiously. "H-Huh?"
"Well, i always took you for a bad ass type."
"I usually am, actually."
She laughs and says sarcastically, "It sure shows."
Asuko looked away, his blush growing even brighter.. "I-I" He pathetically slams his head on the table, looking away from Maka as much as he could.
Maka reaches for him, worriedly. "Are you okay?"
Asuko just blushed even more as he noticed Maka reach for him and he quickly pulled his head off the table, desperately looking away from Asuko. He said, "You really are beautiful, you know. I'd drink in the sight of you as much as I could, but I'm afraid if I did anymore, I'd probably suffocate myself..."
Maka burst out laughing. "You need to get your eyes checked."
He's blush just grew brighter he looked away, refusing to look at Maka.
"Hey..." Maka says, poking his arm playfully.
"What's up, beautiful? Besides my attraction to you?"
She raises an eyebrow and laughs at Asuko. "Again with the cheesyness i see."
He sighs. "i just don't understand you." He says frowning.
"What do you mean?" She asks really curious.
"I may seem bad ass in school or to other people but when i'm with you i can't seem to go bad ass mode." He sighs in frustration.
"Oh! Your not usually like this?" She asks clearly startled.
"Absolutely not! That's humiliating!" He tells her.
Maka giggles. "When i first saw you outside Shibusen when you were briefing us, you were really tough-looking there. Is that what your usually like? Even with other girls?"
"Yes, yes i am. What's really frustrating is that i can't seem to pull the attitude with you."
"At least i get to see the real Asuko without his mask of bad ass-ness."
They both laugh at this. Upon hearing this, from her he smiles a real smile which he never did since his partner died.
'This girl... she's so different. I'm the biggest player in Shibusen and i've been hopping from one girl to another making them feel special, making them fall hard and leaving them when i was bored with them. I've always wanted one thing from every girl but with Maka, could i actually want something different? The something that any other girl would give me, without me even saying a word? Do i actually want Maka's love? The love that any girl would die for me to accept?
I remember a girl i was screwing a while back. It was easy making a girl fall for you, just tell them everything they want to hear like, You are the prettiest girl i have ever met, I love you, You are the best among the rest and all that crappy shit that girls go gaga over. So this girl was head over heels for me. It was easy enough it only took me about a minute to convince her that i was interested. She desperately fell for me. We had dinner and just like that she gave me everything i wanted from her. I left her after that and the next day she cornered me and told me she had the best night ever. I told her what i told every other girl who i screwed with. Her eyes were the saddest eyes i have ever seen, but i didn't care.
As expected from every stupid girl like her she told me she'd give me anything i wanted and that she'd try her best to please me or something like that. I told her i didn't want anything else from her but as usual she just followed me like all the other desperate girls that want me did. She's i think, still there waiting for me to accept her love that i would never want or ask for.
But here I am wanting a girl to love me. I never though i'd want something so pointless. When i first saw Maka i didn't expect to feel this way. I never felt so vulnerable in my life. At first i just saw a normal girl looking nervous for her first day but hen i locked eyes with her huge emerald ones i just lost myself.
I broke and threw out so many hearts but why is it that this time i want to cherish and keep this particular heart?
