Introducing Soul
Part 2
I waited for an answer. She looked up to the top corner of her eye and smiled.
"Yeah. I'd like that. Let me put my shoes on kay? You came come in and wait. I don't mind. Just be quiet cause my sisters still sleeping." She told me as she walked towards the stairs. I nodded, but I stayed outside. I walked in a circle then sat down on the step, putting my elbows on my knees. I was nervous. Ii watched the water out in the distance. The waves forming slowly, then crashing down on each other. I looked back when I heard the door close.
Maka locked the door and turned on her heels and walked towards me.
"Whats with the guitar?" she asked while I stood up.
"You'll see. Come on." I held out my hand and she gladly took it. I think im starting to get used to the hand holding thing with her.
We walked down the street, passing all the small stores and restraints along the way. We were going to the beach, that's when I'll show her my song. We looked in the windows, seeing bread, clothes, and even pets. We stopped at most of the shops windows, looking at stuff and we were having a good time.
"ok, you got me out of the house, now what?" Maka asked me as we walked to a bench on the pier. We sat down and I set the guitar on my lap.
"Now we talk." I smiled and put my elbows on the top of the guitar. She giggled and asked me, "About what?" I looked at her.
"Us. You said you wanted to know more about me, you go first though." I pointed at her and laughed. She smiled and took a deep breath.
"ok, um, what do you want to know?" that made me think for a second. I really didn't care what she told me. I shrugged and looked at the ocean.
"fine, be like that. Ok I'm- or I was an only child, when my parents were alive." She looked at me to see if I was following along. I shook my head.
"I am the youngest child. Just me and Wes." I looked back at her and smiled.
"my favorite food is strawberries. I have a dog, whos at least 14 in human years." That's an old dog, im just saying, "her name is Cassie. I was ten when I found out I was an only child." She told me some more stuff, but I can't remember them all. She has a pretty intresting life. It was my turn to tell her about my life. I am really nervous. Im not sure I want to do this now.
"ok, Soul. Now its your turn. Tell me about you." She smiled and put her hands in her lap. I took a deep breath and placed my hands on the guitar.
"this is what the… guitars for. I have a problem talking about myself, so I uh wrote about myself." I'm a complete idiot! I started playing, my fingers slowly gliding along the neck of the guitar. I started singing the song I wrote last night. I don't like how it came out, but I think she liked it.
"I'm, good at wastin time,
I think lyrics need to rhyme,
and your not askin,
but I'm tryin to grow a mustache,
I eat cheese, but only on pizza, please.
and sometimes on a homemade quesadilla,
other wise it smells like feet to me,
and I,
I really like it when the moon looks like a toenail,
and I love it when you say my name….." I played a little faster than the beginning. It started to flow and I wanst so nervous anymore.
"if you want to know, here it gose,
gonna tell ya theres a part of mt the show,
if your close gonna letcha see everything,
but remember that you asked for it,
I'll try to do my best to impress,
but it's eaiser to letch you take a guess,
of the rest, but ya wanna hear what lives in my brain,
my heart, will you ask for it?
for your purusin, at time confusin, slightly amusing,
introducing me,
do, do, do, do, do, do, do,
do, do, do, do, do, do, do, la, da, da, da…
la, da, da,da,da,da... da,da, da," I stopped singing and strummed the guitar a couple times before I started singing again. I looked at Maka and she was smiling, watching my hands move.
"I never, trust a dog to watch my food,
I like to use the word dude, as a noun, or an adverb, or an adjective,
and I, I never, really been into cars,
I like really cool guitars, and super heros,
and checks with lots of zeros on em',
I love the sound of violins,
and makin someone smile…" I took a deep breath and continued,
"if you want to know, here it goes," I sung a little faster than before,
"gonna tell ya theres a part of me that shows,
if we're close, gonna let you see everything,
but remember that you asked for it, I'll, try to do my best,
to impress but its eaiser to let you take a guess,
of the rest, but you want to here what lives in my brain,
my heart, will you ask for it?
for your purusin, at times confusing, posibaly amusing,
introducing me," I looked at Maka. She laughed and hung her head down. I slowed down a little.
"You probably know more than you ever wanted to,
so becareful when you ask next time….." I took a deep breath and sung faster than the last chorus,
"so… if you wanna know, here it goes,
gonna tell ya theres a part of me that shows,
if we're close, gonna letcha see everything…
but remember that you asked for it,
I'll, try to do my best, to impress,
but its easier to let you take a guess of the rest,
but you wanna hear what lives in my brain,
and my heart, will you ask for it?" I slowed down and looked up to the sky rolling my eyes,
"for your purusin, at time confusin, hopefully amusing,
introducing me…
do, do, do, do, do, do, do,
do, do, do, do, do, do, do,
Do, do do do… introducing me…" I slowly sung to the end and brought my hand down on the guitar to finish the song. I looked at Maka and she looked at me. I rested my hands on my guitar once more and waited for a response.
"Wow Soul. Y-you wrote that, last night? I- I liked it. And I'll make sure to get you something super hero themed for your birthday." We both laughed and stood up.
"So… i was thinkin Maka… maybe… we could hang out sometime?" I looked at her while we were walking back to her house. The time was 3:30 and I had a blast with her. I think she had a good time too.
"I would like that a lot Soul. I really would." We walked back to her house and said our goodbyes and I walked home like yesterday, slowly and quietly. I thought to myself," if I had one wish, I wouldn't wish for anything else in the world.
Cause I already got it…"
