Hey! Shadowmistx98 here! :)
Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater and the songs.
"Oh! I can't believe it! All this time, Maka's been the one on the news!" one of her classmates said.
"Yeah, and we've been bullying her all this time!" a boy said. Tamera groaned as her classmates said this. She looked at Kim and Jackie and glared at them. Maka and the others went to their positions and arranged the instruments.
"Hey, what was that all about?" Soul asked Kid as he arranged the turned off microphone. The others heard him as they arranged the instruments.
"What was it?" Kid asked.
"You leaning to Maka all of a sudden… That wasn't part of the practice…" Soul said. Maka looked at them as Black Star plugged her guitar to the amplifier.
"Oh, that" Kid said. Soul groaned.
"Oh! That was my suggestion. I thought it would give the song more dramatic kind of thing…" Liz smiled.
"Yeah, sure… Drama and stuff…" Soul didn't look amused. Then the curtains opened again. The audience looked at the stage and shouted.
"Good evening again… Now, shall we try a little sad song?" Kid looked at Patty.
"One, Two… One, Two, Three… Rock!" Patty used a more low voice. Lower than the one she usually does. The song then played. (Bold-Kid, Italics-Soul, Underline-Maka, Black Star, Liz, Tsubaki, Patty)
This town, used to be a pretty place to stay,
A place you'd stop off from the highway,
But all of those things,
Changed on the day, you packed up your bags and you ran away,
Kid's face was matched to the tune of the song. His facial expression was the same. It gives the audience on how you feel.
All they say, is how you've changed,
everyday, I stay the same, so you can keep the necklace That I gave to you,
I'll keep the stupid tattoos.
Soul did the same. Maka looked at him as he sang his part. She then remembered his past and suddenly thought of what he was thinking now. Maka sighed a little bit, but not too loud for the microphone to catch it.
I can see it from the other side; the grass isn't always as green, the house is burned to ashes,
I'm no longer in between,
R.I.P, R.I.P, you, and me.
(2x)
Maka could see Soul look away for a bit and sighed. He breathed hard and turned back to the audience.
I count, the empty bottles upon the bar,
but I give up I can't count that far,
and the lights in this place,
are too dim to see,
they're kicking me out, it's a quarter past 3,
they tell me, you're all I got,
I just need these dreams to stop,
You can keep the necklace that I gave to you,
I'll keep the stupid tattoos.
The two vocalists looked at each other.
I can see it from the other side; the grass isn't always as green, the house is burned to ashes,
I'm no longer in between,
R.I.P, R.I.P,you, and me.
(2x)
They now prepared for the bridge. (Bold-Black Star, Italics-Maka, Underline-Liz, Patty, Tsubaki)
In the back of the car,
On the way to your home,
In the pouring rain,
On the side of the road,
Black Star didn't have his normal mood of 'I am AWESOME' now. He went with the song which was surprising for Maka. But she didn't mind it long enough because her part was coming.
In the light of the street,
On the recline of the seat,
You told me I should move on
They repeated again. "Wow! I never knew Maka could sing too…" Ms. Rachel said as she smiled. Kim and Jackie's mouth hung open. "Yeah, us too…"
In the back of the car,
On the way to your home,
In the pouring rain,
On the side of the road,
In the light of the street,
On the recline of the seat,
You told me I should move on
Then they switched to the two vocalists again. (Bold-Kid, Italics-Soul, Underline-Maka, Black Star, Liz, Tsubaki, Patty)
I can see it from the other side; the grass isn't always as green, the house is burned to ashes,
I'm no longer in between,
R.I.P, R.I.P, you, and me.
(2x)
The audience clapped and cheered for them again as the curtains closed.
"That was amazing! I didn't know Maka could sing so perfectly!" Patty said.
"We heard her during practice, right?" Liz asked.
"Oh! Yeah! Heeheehee! I forgot!" Patty giggled.
"Well, I'm more surprised with Black Star here…" Tsubaki giggled. Black Star grinned. Maka chuckled and then her eyes laid on Soul who was dead serious. He didn't mind the others. Maka sighed as Kid grabbed her shoulder.
"Is there something wrong?" Kid worriedly asked. Maka shook her head and sighed.
"Wow, and she could sing too…" a boy said dreamily. Tamera rolled her eyes.
"Will you guys just stop idolizing her? I don't see what's so special about her…" she looked away.
"Aw, is Tamera all jealous now? It's bad to know that the girl you once bullied now is famous…" Kim mocked her. Tamera glared at her. The curtains opened again.
"Good evening again… This song here is going to be the last song we perform tonight… So, I hope you enjoyed this night…" Kid said.
"Aaaw…" the people were sad because it was the last. "Patty?" Kid called out to her.
"One, Two! One, Two, Three! Rock!" Patty slammed it on the drums and banged her head making her hair bounce. (Bold-Kid, Italics-Soul, Underline-Maka, Black Star, Liz, Tsubaki, Patty)
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
Kid and Soul started the song. "Wow, another sad, love song… I wonder what Soul's thinking again…" Maka thought.
Yeah, I, I know it's hard to remember
The people we used to be
It's even harder to picture
That you're not here next to me
Kid shook his head lightly and tapped his foot.
You say it's too late to make it
But is it too late to try?
And in our time that you wasted
All of our bridges burned down
Soul looked away again but regained his cool again as he faced the audience.
I've wasted my nights
You turned out the lights
Now I'm paralyzed
Still stuck in that time when we called it love
But even the sun sets in paradise
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of sh*t
One more stupid love song I'll be sick
The audience cheered.
You turned your back on tomorrow
Cause you forgot yesterday
I gave you my love to borrow
But just gave it away
Soul tightened his grip on the microphone on his right hand and the microphone stand on his left hand.
You can't expect me to be fine
I don't expect you to care
I know I've said it before
But all of our bridges burned down
I've wasted my nights
You turned out the lights
Now I'm paralyzed
Still stuck in that time when we called it love
But even the sun sets in paradise
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of sh*t
One more stupid love song I'll be sick
Now I'm at a payphone...
Maka and Black Star did the solo together. They have replaced the rap with it. Then the two guys sang again.
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of sh*t
One more stupid love song I'll be sick
Now I'm at a payphone...
"Whoooo!" the audience stood up and shouted their name repeatedly.
"Thank you very much! I am Kid!" Kid raised his right arm and made a rock n' roll sign.
"I'm Soul" Soul smiled and said his name in a cool tone. "I'm Liz!" Liz flipped her hair.
"I'm Black Star! Yahoo!" he raised his guitar. "I'm Tsubaki!" she smiled sweetly.
"Patty!" she giggled. "And I'm Maka!" Maka smiled. The students from the back shouted. Maka sweat dropped.
"And we are SOUL ROCK!" the curtains closed as the audience went crazy again.
They went to their dressing room laughing.
"That was amazing! This is the best moment ever!" Patty spun around and dropped on the couch.
"Yeah!" Liz and Tsubaki said. Soul sighed and closed his eyes. Maka noticed it.
"Oh! We need to go home, now! We still have classes!" Kid said.
"Oh yeah! I almost forgot!" Liz said.
"Who cares?" Black Star asked. "Black Star…" Tsubaki looked at him.
"You guys go ahead! I still need to change…" Maka said.
"Are you sure?" Kid raised his eyebrow. Maka nodded and went in. She had a long time changing. She still searched for her clothes. After that she went out.
"Whew! That was long…" Maka scratched her head and saw Soul sitting on the chair. He had closed his eyes while listening to his iPod.
"Where are the others? Why did you stay here?" Maka asked. No response. Maka exhaled heavily as she approached Soul and plugged out one earphone.
"Ow! Damn, woman!" Soul glared at her.
"Why are you still here? I thought you guys went home already" Maka said.
"Oh, I forgot… You're still here…" Soul scratched his head. Maka eyed him evilly.
"I just thought I needed some time alone…" Soul looked away.
"Oh…" Maka looked away too. "Are you ok?" Maka asked.
"Why wouldn't I?" Soul asked. "Because I noticed you when you were singing, you were sad…" Maka sat beside him.
"Ok… First of all, why are you looking at me when we're performing? Aren't you supposed to look at the audience?" Soul crossed his legs.
"A-a-a-a" Maka stuttered.
"And second, that song was sad… Of course I need to match my emotions with the song!" Soul said. Maka cleared her throat.
"Ok! First, I wasn't looking at you! I just caught a glance and…"
"Yeah, just caught a glance" Soul smirked.
"Grr! And second…! I can feel you were really sad…" Maka's voice trailed off. Soul looked at her and sighed.
"Ok, fine. I admit…" Soul said.
"It's just that… It was really hard for me that time…" Soul bowed his head.
"Well, at least you had friends… Me? All the students that watched tonight are probably thinking 'What made her so special to join Soul Rock?'" Maka closed her eyes. Soul looked at her.
"You know, I asked myself the same question too when you joined our group…" Soul said. Maka looked at him with sad eyes.
"But, now, I think I know the answer…" Soul continued.
"Oh, really?" Maka raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah… Everything about you is special" Soul looked at her as she widened her eyes.
"Y-you're bluffing…" Maka looked away as she blushed.
"No, I'm not… I can see why Liz and the others made you join our group. You're a good friend, Maka" Soul smiled at her. Maka glanced at him. She sighed. Awkward silence~~~
"Ok! I'm going home! Are you?" Maka stood up and got her bag.
"Yeah, I think I'm going too…" Soul stood up. They went out the dressing room and saw that it was already dark.
"Hmm. No lights? The workers must be out now… They must've thought we already went out…" Soul said as he reached for his cellphone to shed some light on the dark hallway.
"Um… It's so d-dark…" Maka went beside Soul.
"Just stick to me and you'll be fine…" Soul said as he held her arm lightly. Soul couldn't see her face but he knew she was trembling and sweating. Soon they went out.
"Phew! I thought it was going to be forever!" Maka held her chest and felt her heart beating fast. Soul went to his motorcycle and hopped on it. Maka regained her cool again and stood up straight.
"Ok! I'm off then!" Maka waved goodbye to him and started to walk away.
"Hey, you're going to walk home alone?" Soul asked while putting his helmet on.
"Um, yeah. No choice!" Maka turned her face to him and back to the path she was walking.
"You should ride with me. It's more safe" Soul turned the engine on.
"Um… I don't know…" Maka stopped. Soul drove his way to Maka and held out a hand to her.
"C'mon" Maka could see his red eyes behind the plastic glass part of the helmet.
"O-ok…" she took his hand and Soul gave her a helmet.
"Hold tight…" Soul said.
"Mmmkay…" Maka wrapped her arms around Soul's waist. Soul then began to drive her home. Surprisingly, he memorized it the last time. After a few minutes, Soul dropped Maka in front of her apartment.
"Thanks…" Maka smiled as she gave the helmet back to Soul. "So, are you considering the group's offer of you moving into our house…?" Soul asked.
"Hmm… Yeah…" Maka thought about it again.
"C'mon, it'll be fun" Soul said. Maka smiled. "You know what? You have my yes! Tell the others about it so they won't be surprised… Tomorrow?" she said. Soul nodded.
"Yeah, it'll be fun considering you'll only move with a few stuff…" Soul remembered how empty her room was. Maka frowned a bit.
"See ya!" Soul drove again. Maka smiled.
xXxSoul Rock's HomexXx
"Hey, did you have your 'time alone' now?" Liz placed her hands on her hips.
"Uh, yeah… You didn't tell me Maka was still there…" Soul played with his keys.
"Weren't you listening that time?" Liz angrily asked. "Oh no! You did not leave her ther-!" Soul cut her off.
"Don't worry. I drove her home…" Soul rolled his eyes and went to the staircase.
"Drove… her?" Tsubaki's eyes widened with what he said.
"You've been to her home?" Liz shouted. Soul said "Maka wants to tell you she'll move in by tomorrow…" Soul shouted from the staircase.
"R-really? Yes!" Liz jumped in joy. Soul sighed and rolled his eyes as he went to his room.
