She had been sitting in her room, on her bed mulling over what had happened that day. Maka couldn't help but get butterflies at the thought of the kiss she'd received from Black Star, and she unconsciously touched a few fingers to her lips. It had been strong,..not forceful, but strong. His lips had also been surprisingly soft, she smiles and blushes at the thought. A small giggle escapes her throat, as she remembered the feelings that Black Star gave her.

Maka frowned as the memory of Soul entered her mind, she reprimanded herself. He deserved a calm conversation, so she could tell him what she felt. Maka sighed, feeling bad about dismissing him the way she did, but she just couldn't bring herself to feel that what she had done was wrong. Not long ago she felt things for him, her heart clenched painfully as she remembered. Then, Black Star had taken her out for ice cream, and things just spiraled into what happened. Another sigh left her lips, she was getting tired of over thinking things, and perhaps she should just 'go with the flow'.

Eventually standing from her bed, she shuffled to his room and was about to knock when she heard him moan her name, as well as other sounds she just didn't know how to comprehend or compute. Her mind went blank, her hand knocking on the door anyways and she spoke before she could properly tell herself just to go back to her room and let it all go.

"S-soul?"

The boys eyes went wide as they could before he bolted up from laying on his bed, spent from his activities. He scrambled to his dresser, grabbing a pair of boxers and putting them on, after wiping his hand and member on a towel.

"Just..just a minute Maka!"

Biting her lip she responded, feeling an enormous amount of awkward tension.

"No, that's okay...I just wanted to tell you..um, that I'm leaving for a bit. So, uh yeah..bye."

Scrambling back to her room, completely scarred for life on how she viewed her 'cool' weapon, she began packing an overnight bag and calling the Thompson sisters. After hanging up she slipped on a hoodie and shoes, running out of the apartment with her bag and straight to Kidd's mansion, in desperate need of 'girl time'.

He froze when he heard her reply, clad in only a fresh pair of boxers and pants he rushed to open the door, only to see his meister dart out the front. Cursing he punched his wall, and pulled out his phone to call Black Star, only to pause and stare at it. He couldn't call his best friend, and rant about his meister's behavior and what had happened. It'd be awkward now, and completely inappropriate.

"Dammit!" The poor wall was smacked again, as he ran through the rather small list of friends he had...he would trust none with the incident, save for Black Star, whom he couldn't confide in. Growling out of frustration, he headed to the kitchen to binge on snack foods. Lucky Maka, she was so damn lucky. To have everyone love her, and to have good friends. He leered at the Pringles before snatching them and popping the top off. If he could speak to no one about this, food would have to do.

What was he going to say to her when she got back? Really. 'Oh hey Maka I just jacked off thinking about you.' He scoffed into the chocolate milk, oh yes...that would be a great way to resolve things. Or did he want them resolved? He wanted Maka, he'd wanted her for a long time. Though, he had just realized it because Black Star had stepped into the picture and wished to take her heart. Now, he, Soul, was stuck with a rather terrible problem.

Soul liked, might even love Maka.

Maka, liked Black Star and was pursuing him.

Black Star, liked Maka and wanted her.

"Oh goodie, I'm a third wheel. How uncool." So he sat there, continuing to binge on food while he thought of his next move, his next option to solving his emotional problem.

AN: Oh, my lord. xP This is so short, and I'm so ashamed to post it. Yet, I just can't add more to it. I'm so very sorry that it took FOREVER. I can't promise the next chapter to be up soon, since I'm in..well kinda writer's block. There are so many ways I take this story,...and I've lost sight of the ending I had in mind. xD Don't know where it went. Now that you all know how Soul feels, I'm thinking of beginning the Black StarxMaka adorableness. Since that 'is' what the story is about. I just really wanted to convey how Soul feels, now that he's figured out how he feels about Maka, but it's too late for him. Again, sorry for the shortness and lack of updates.

....ugh... I LOATHE this chapter. *head desks*
