For once, Church was very productive because I fell asleep and dreamed of this story!
DarkFlameInfernal: Thank you, I'm glad you are enjoying this!
VilaDeath: You can always trust a doctor (drinks Dr. Pepper)!
Spottedpath: Lol I do that too! Another reason why I feel I am a huge DTK fan is because when I walk up and down the stairs leading to my room I always adjust the photos on the wall, this was before I even knew of Kid!
InLoveWithDeaththeKid: Woah... super duper... thank you!
lack-4-a-better-name: I must see the photo when you're done!
emoHippy1: And so, the bet is over. And yes he is epic, but no one is as smexy as Kid! (*points!*)
xKireyy: I know they are!
Spottedpath: There, my name has just been removed from you're death list!
wordfiend: OMLD you're right that would be an awesome magnet, and I'm glad you believe this story matches with their characteristics. I really hate it sometimes when I go extremely OOC. I'm, again, happy that you enjoy this story and they will work out their issues, but in one heck of a strange ways ;D
Sora'struelover: Thank You!
1zippy: Thanks and I absolutely love those two bands!
rainfurr26: I hope it's on my bio...
8fangirl8: Soul shall not be an albino prick, in this story he is quit the opposite!
REDEADED: *Bows* I have updated!
The Storm
To Maka's utter amazement her day had gotten even worse after she heard Soul talking to this mystery girl. How, might you ask, is this possible? Complete and utter downpour. This had to be one of the worst storms Maka has ever seen in her life and her sanctuary was a mile away. She couldn't tell what was the rain and what was her own tears when she saw Gallow's Manor in the background. She calmed her breathing down as she knocked on the door, Liz answered. "Maka...?" She asked confused. Maka cleared her throat.
"Is Kid here?" She asked trying to keep her voice from faltering.
"Maka are you-"
"I see, he's in the study, thank you Liz." Maka said cutting her off and walking past a shocked Liz and down the hall to the study. Liz followed after Maka, she was worried for her dear friend and wanted to know what was happening.
Maka reached the door and opened it, not knocking before she entered. "Patty, I told you, you can't-" Kid looked up from his papers to see a drenched Maka. He stood up quickly and walked over to her. "Maka?" He asked as he walked towards her.
"He's an ass." Kid's step faltered slightly as he realized the perfect Maka Albarn just cursed.
"Who?" He asked her. He grabbed her hand, it was cold as she was not wearing her gloves, but her rings. He pulled her into his chest and just rocked back and forth with her. "Do you want a towel?" he asked her. She nodded her head and he nodded to Liz. Liz ran to the bathroom and got Maka a bath robe and a towel. If Maka wasn't on the verge of tears, Liz would be smiling like a fool(*1*) at the sight in front of her; Kid held Maka in his lap as she had her head resting on his chest just under his head, he was rubbing comforting circles in her back.
"Here you go, honey." Liz said giving the towels to Maka. She gave Liz a weak smile before putting on the robe and resting back on Kid's chest.
"Liz, Maka will be staying with us for a little while. If you-" Liz cut Kid off.
"What the hell did this bastard do?" She asked Maka.
"I went home and when I was about to open the door I heard him and another girl giggling. I heard her ask him if he 'told her yet', and he replied with 'no, I'm waiting for the right moment to tell her'. I didn't stay any longer because I couldn't take it..." Maka said burying her head deeper into Kid's chest.
"That prick! Patty!" Liz screamed.
"Yesh!" Patty asked magically appearing behind Kid and Maka holding a giraffe.
"Soul. Torture method 5893743. Code red! Activate tomorrow because tonight I'm just to darn lazy. Maka, we're having a sleep over to cheer you up and I'm inviting Tsubaki!" Liz said walking out of the room. Patty began to laugh.
"HAHAHAHA! I love Torture method 5893743!" Maka looked at Kid's equally pale face then at Patty.
"Patty... what is Torture method 5893743?" Maka asked.
"It's when we hand a guy by his balls in the apartment of the girl who he is cheating with!" Patty said raising her giraffe up in victory. "We have a lot of hate towards cheaters! Come on Maka! You can wear my giraffe pajama's!" Patty said running out with Maka in tow.
"Now now Patty, you don't have to do that to Soul. Who knows how that will affect his weapon form?" Kid could here Maka question as Patty dragged her down the hall. He laughed slightly at his weapons antics before he was plotting his own punishment for Soul.
"Okay, so here's the game plan. We eat chocolate, paint nails and what kid movies just to make fun of them and laugh!" Liz said slamming her fist into her hand(*2*). She looked around the group of girls that had come to the manor and smiled as they all nodded. "I'll be back!" Liz said running into the kitchen to grab their chocolaty goodies. She was glad to hear Maka talking and giggling with Tsubaki.
"How does she come up with that?" She heard Maka ask.
"I honestly don't know. How can she think up of such an evil torture method?" Liz put down the food loudly with a bow.
"I am quite proud of my Torture methods, especially Torture method 5893743." She said coming up from her bow. "Shall we begin? I've really wanted to test this design out, but couldn't do it to my own nails. Can I try it on you Maka?" Liz asked.
"Sure, why not." She said shrugging her shoulders.
"YES!" Liz screamed.
"I WANNA DO TSUBAKI'S NAILS!" Patty screamed grabbing Tsubaki's hand.
"And I'll do yours Patty." Tsubaki said laughing back. So they had begun with their nail designs, talking about the strangest things as they went.
"So Maka, would you rather sleep sexually with Tsubaki or Blair?" Patty, of course having to make the simple would you rather game awkward.
"Duh, Tsubaki, we've been best friends for ever! Plus imagine how odd it would be if someone was like, so who'd you lose it to? and I say Blair. God everyone's lost it to her! I mean I'd rather lose it to Tsubaki instead of Blair." Maka said examining the design Liz was currently drawing on her nails.
"Well Maka if it makes you feel any better, I would chose you over Blair any day." Tsubaki added blushing.
"Thanks Tsubaki, and Liz what are you doing?" Maka asked looking down at her nails.
"DONE!" Liz screamed as she backed away from's Maka's nails. Each nail was an eyeball design and she soon recognized that each eye belonged to someone. Her eyes were on her thumbs, Tsubaki's on her pointer finger, Liz's on her middle finger, and Patty on her pinky fingers. Maka blushed bright red when she saw whose eyes were on her ring finger.
"Hahaha! Maka looks like a tomato." Patty said.
"I'm going to run now." Liz said running around to the other side of the couch.
"LIZ! WHAT HAPPENS IF HE SEES MY NAILS!" Maka screamed chasing her around the couch.
"He will know it's meant to be!" She replied simply with a little giggle. Maka jumped over the coach and pinned her to the ground.
"What am I supposed to tell him?" Maka asked sitting on top of Liz.
"You know, sometimes I wonder if you're all friends. I come in here to go get some water and see Maka tackling Liz to the floor.
"Yes because Liz is suggesting awkward subjects and painting them on my nails." Maka said as she looked up to see Kid in pajama pants and no shirt. She blushed.
"Sister, if you're gonna be staying with us, you gotta get used to that." Liz said when she saw Kid blush as well.
"Umm, well I'm going upstairs good night Liz, Patty, Tsubaki and Maka." Kid said bowing slightly to each of them before going upstairs.
"'Night Kid!" The girls all screamed in unison. Once he left Tsubaki asked Maka the question that was on her mind.
"Whose eyes are on your ring finger?" She asked. Maka held out her hand for Tsubaki to see the golden eye Liz had painted there.
"You suck." Was all Maka could say before bursting out in a fit of laughter. "I missed hanging out with you guys." Liz nodded.
"We need to have more girl dates."
"Lord Death, why can't she just join the hunt, life would be so much easier." Maka said pointing at the screen. After multiple debates they decided to watch Hercules because it was Patty's favorite of the choices and no one wanted to go against Patty.
"Well when you find love you should never let it go..." Was all Liz could say, but right before she could add anything else she heard Maka singing to herself.
"If there's a prize for rotten judgement, I've guess I've already won that. No man is worth the aggravation. That's ancient history, been there, done that."
"Who you think you kidding, he's the up in heaven to you tryin' to keep it hidden, honey we can see right through you!" Liz sang the next part pointing at Maka, the girls grew into a fit of laughter.
"I guess we are more like some Disney movie characters than we thought." Tsubaki said.
"Well, we know the muses and Meg, but the true question is who is Hercules?" Liz asked teasingly to Maka.
"Hey! I won't say I'm in love!" Maka said causing another round of giggles. Maka was trying to hide her nerves as the day wound down and turned into night.
Everyone was asleep in the living room when lightening awoke Maka. She began to shake as she felt the house around her moan slightly in protest against the winds. She did not like storms because she had always had to go through with them alone. Another boom of thunder shook her to her core as she got up and wrapped a blanket around her.
"It's going to be okay Maka." She said to herself as she walked out of the living room and to the library. She had a blanket wrapped around her that seemed to get tighter with every howl of the wind, or every crack of thunder. "It's okay." She whispered to herself.
Kid woke with a start when he sensed Maka's worried soul. He wasn't able to sleep well all night and with her soul walking past his bedroom shivering he was out of his bed in a flash. He ran to the door and looked out into the hall. He saw the library door at the end of the hall close. He sighed as he walked down the hall to the library, the only sound was the padding of his feet on the marble floor.
"Maka?" He asked as he looked into the library. He found her curled up in a corner of the library. She was by the biggest library column whispering things he could not hear. "Maka?" he asked, but he could tell she didn't hear him. (*3*) She had her hands to her ears and was whispering to herself.
"It's okay Maka, the storm will be over soon." She was saying over and over again. He sat down next to her and pulled her into his lap and began to rock her back and forth.
"It's okay Maka, I'm here, there storm won't hurt you. It's okay, shhh." He said petting her head and whispering sweet nothings into her ear. Maka soon fell asleep. "Is it me, or are we in this position more often than usual?" He asked himself looking down at Maka who was sleeping in his lap. He kissed her forehead and picked her up bridal style. "You can stay with me tonight, I'll keep you safe." He said when he noticed her starting to stir.
"Mmm..." She hummed as she buried her face into his shirt. He smiled slightly as he placed her in his bed and feel asleep with her next to him.
"I can get used to this." he said with a sigh as he feel asleep as well.
I hope you enjoyed some of the extreme fluff in this!
1) Yes, In my story Liz is a KidXMaka fangirl and yes I did come up with Torture method 5893743
2) When my friends come over we do exactly this, only we make awkward sexual jokes. For example we were watching a barbie Pegasus movie and all you heard coming from us was "That's not her waste he's holding onto."
3) When writing this chapter I was literally listening to disney music and during this part I was listening to 'Something There' from beauty and the beast... just saying it fit the mood.
