"Hahahaha, wow. That's extremely funny Maka, good one." Soul said sarcastically.
"How so?" I asked and folded my arms. Soul then stiffened, thought for a second, and said,
"It's just that... I don't want you getting hurt, what if something from your plan goes wrong? Or maybe your father is just a step ahead of us..?" Soul said. Hey, I have to admit, he has a good point, and that was a great save. But my options are limited.
"What other options do I have?" I asked. He came to me and gave me a hug.
"Okay, if you think that it's the best option, then we'll do it. But the only question is... how?" Soul asked. Well, he does have a good point there. I didn't really think of that...
"I don't know yet, but I know that I want him out of my life." I said. I couldn't take this stress anymore, all these emotions were coming back because of my father.
"Did you even finish checking the mail?" I asked.
"Of course not." I said.
"Well, while I think, you should probably go do that." I said.
"Why?" He asked.
"Because... If your standing here, I'll be too tempted to do this.." I said. I came closer to him and gave him a big kiss. "Understand?" I said.
"Yes..." He said and frowned.
"Why so sad?" I asked.
"Because I wanted to do more of that..." He said and pouted.
"Just go check the mail, later we could do much more of that." I said and smiled.
"Okay" He said and smiled. As he opened the door, my words cut him off.
"Hey, Soul?" I asked.
"Yeah, beautiful?" He asked.
"Um, I have a question..." I asked. He then turned around and smiled.
"What is it?" He asked.
"Um, now that we did this... Where are we right now. Like, where do we stand?" I asked. I was way too tempted to ask. I mean, we had sex, we made out almost everyday, and he called me all these cute nick names. It didn't hurt to ask, right?
"Well...'" He paused and walked up to me until we were a step away from doing the dirty thing we did as couple ago. "It's up to you. Do you want to be together as 'girlfriend and boyfriend' which I would recommend. Or we can make this a fuck buddy thing." He told me.
"I sure as hell don't want to be fuck buddies..." I said.
"So it's official, we are dating now." He smiled and then raced to me picked me up as I wrapped my legs around him and kissed him. Best. Boyfriend. Ever. As he set me down, I knew that I could think more clearly now.
"Okay, now you can go check the mail." I told him. He then smiled and walked out. I had the widest smile anyone could EVER see. I was extremely happy, but I had to figure out what to do.
"Oh Maka, what are you going to do now?" I asked myself. You know, I could just go up to him, then Soul can knock him out again.. No, either way he will wake up. If I call the cops, then they won't only take him away, but they'll take me, too. Either way, I'll loose. What would mom do? She would run away. Like she always did. And I can't just move. Whatever, I am going to go and get a Popsicle and chill out. I went down stairs and opened the freezer. I saw Soul looking at a paper with a puzzled face.
"What's wrong? Anything new?" I asked.
"Just the new mayor, it says that he's going around random houses just to go see new people and meet them. So, be prepared, he might come here. Oh, and his name is... Mayor Death?" Soul said, his expression still puzzled.
"You're joking right?!" I asked, extremely anxious to see if he was joking.
"Nope. That's him. Why?" Soul asked.
"I know him! He, my mom, and my dad were best friends when I was little. I remember that my mom and my dad worked for him or something. But then my dad got fired and my mom just disappeared. You know what this means right?!" I said.
"Not really.." He said.
"He can probably help me. Death was completely trust worthy. I used to tell him secrets, like the guys I liked, or if I stole a cookie from the cookie jar." I said and giggled.
"Soul jumped up and had a wide smile on his face.
"This is awesome! Now, we rarely have to worry about it." He said. I ran up to him and gave him some tongue. I admired his enthusiasm, it made me smile every time I see that cocky smile, or that puzzled face, or even his excitement. I let go smiling. I looked at the clock. So, it was around 9:00 p.m. I got up took my Popsicle and walked off.
"Where are you going?" He asked.
"Just going to my room and thinking what I'm going to say to Death." I said.
"Well, he's an old friend, so he'll understand." He said.
"But, I'm not talking to him as an old friend, it has to be professional." I said simply. Soul looked understanding, yet puzzled. Probably didn't understand. He looked worried, too. I walked up to him and hugged him.
"Don't worry. It's going to be okay. I promise." I whispered in his ear. He hugged me tighter.
"I hope so." He said. I let go and looked in his eyes.
"I know so. Don't worry that cute little head of yours." I said smiling and messed up his hair. He smiled and hugged me again.
"I think I'm falling for you." He said to me. My eyes widened. I could feel my heart skip a beat. The words Tsubaki told me were running through my head.
"That leaves you with the most popular guy in school!" It was like a record player...that's broken. What do I say? Should I just say it back? And, because I'm an idiotic girl... I pulled from the hug. And looked in his eyes.
"Seriously?" I asked. Was he? Was I...dreaming? No one has ever loved me. I never felt love since I was seven years old. I forgot the feeling... Was this...love?
"Yes, I felt like, for me, it was love it first sight. I never believed in it. But when I saw you. I just, I don't know felt like we clicked. Does this make any sense at all?" He said quickly. He just went to his room. I heard him saying to himself that he was an idiot for saying that. I smiled. I went to his room and cracked the door open a bit. His face was flat on his pillow.
"She probably didn't feel the same. Probably didn't like me that way. Was she caught back, shit, I'm such an idiot." He said to himself. He saw the door shut and it was really dark in the room.
"Maka?" He said. He heard me climb on the bed.
"Soul. Do you really think you could beat yourself up like that? You don't even know what I was going to say." I said.
"Well, what were you going to say." He asked. I leaned into him until I knew he could feel me there. We were centimeters away from kissing. I smiled.
"You stole my heart." I said. I noticed that he smiled, too and we made out for a while, switching positions of our kiss. After probably ten minutes, we let go smiling. We fell asleep with his hand around me. I can't believe I love him... As I slept, I could always feel a smirk on my face.
