Soul...

Was someone calling his name?

Hey! Evans!

That sweet voice turned into the little demon's voice. Why did that have to change? He knew he was dreaming, but for some reason, he felt like he was waking up to a nightmare. Then again, that was probably what was going on. His red eyes opened to see himself in a fancy room with the little demon sitting in his cushioned chair as usual.

Soul looked at the demon dully.

"Don't look at me like that, Evans. We're friends, aren't we?"

"There are a few things wrong with that. I told you not to call me by my last name and we were never friends. You only lead us into insanity."

"Insanity is fun! Besides, once you accept it, you'll understand me more."

Soul looked at the little demon with narrowed eyes. "What's with those eyes, Evans? We've had such good times together!" the little demon asked.

"Good times? I'm not going to follow you. I may have some black blood in me, but I have something keeping me sane as anything." Soul said. The demon frowned. He shook his head. He looked at a curtain and waved at something. And in came a certain individual.

OoOoOoOoOoOo

Maka finished what she was saying and walked out of the room. She pushed past everyone. Patti and Liz were about to follow when Kidd stopped them. "Let her think." he said simply. Tsubaki didn't try to follow. Black Star looked over at Soul. He could see him stir in his sleep. He knew that he was dreaming. He wondered how he could sleep through Maka's crying.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

BLACK STAR'S SUPER SPECIAL AWESOME DIARY OF AWESOMENESS!

Black Star walked down the halls, trying to think of what he should do when Soul wakes up. When he does, would he have to tell with Maka being comforted by everyone else. Then again, by spilling her guts like that...

Tsubaki ran up to Black Star and said "Maka is doing better. I think we should check on Soul." Black Star looked at her.

"You also have something to say."

"No."

Black Star grinned. "You do! You do! You do!" he yelled.

Tsubaki turned red. "N-no..."

"YES YOU DO!!!" Black Star shouted. Before he shouted anymore, Tsubaki grabbed him and kissed him.

She pulled away and ran off. Now Black Star knew how Maka felt. He sat there before running after her. His speed made him catch up to her quickly. He grabbed her shoulder, and she turned around with tears in her eyes.

He bit his lip. He grinned a little and said "I thought you were tougher than that." She smiled a little, a little happier that he was not as angry as she thought he would be.

Dear Diary,

I just totally got a girlfriend... Tsubaki, stop looking over my shoulder.

-Black Star

OoOoOoOoOoOoOo

After another hour, Soul woke up in a fright. Maka was in his dream, and when he tried to touch her, she turned to dust. What was that damn demon saying?! He needed something to drink. He slowly got up and walked out the door. Mrs. Evans saw him and said "Get back in there, your hair is a lot messier than when you first came here! You do realize that the ball is almost here, correct?"

Soul looked at her and said "Mom, I need to get something to drink. I just had a rough dream..." His voice was a little raspy. Before she could say anything, he went to the fridge and took out a soda. He drank it all in almost one gulp and put it in the recycling bin. (See kids?! Soul says "Recycling is cool too!")

He sighed and went back into his room. He fixed his hair into a good enough fashion and walked out into the halls. He noticed Patti and Liz outside a door. He walked over before they stropped him. "You're not allowed in." Liz said.

"But Maka is my meister."

"Kidd's orders."

"My house."

"Who died and made you the queens?!"

Patti stuck her tongue out at Soul. "Grow up!" he hissed. Patti lost it there. She pounced on him and started hitting him. Kidd walked out of the room going "Children! Children!" He then noticed Soul.

"Oh, hi Soul!" he said.

"Why can't I see Maka?"

"Because you were being insensitive."

"I was asleep!"

"Oh really? Any normal person would wake up to someone talking to them!"

"So, I'm a deep sleeper! That is a great factor right there!"

Kidd just stared him down. "Why'd you kiss Maka?"

"Because she is more than a friend in my heart."

"Heartfelt words. If you could, would you act on your feelings if you had the chance?"

"Depends. Is Maka's father here?"

Kidd sighed. "No."

"Then, yes. I would. Because if Maka's father was around, he would murder me in the worst way possible."

Kidd looked at the door. "Maka still needs some time. I think you should give her another five minutes. Get yourself something to eat. You seem hungry." he said simply.

Soul didn't take too kindly to that. He grabbed Kidd and pushed him aside. He opened the door and walked inside. Maka was looking out the window, as if staring out into space. She looked beautiful in that angle. He walked over and hugged her from behind. "I'm sorry..." he whispered.

Maka looked back at him. "Did you hear me at all?" she asked.

He shook his head. "No."

She reached over and put her hand on his head. "I can't help, but feel the same about you." she whispered.
