Chapter 11

(Maka's P.O.V)

I was really not in the mood to watch Soul and Kid kiss.

I leaned forward, and caught the driver's attention.

"There's an extra 10 bucks for you if you can get me to Gallow's Manor within the next 5 minutes."

He nodded, and cut the red light. As I looked out of the back window, I could see my weapon and the fellow meister, still in a loving embrace.

Jealousy bubbled within me.

But at the same time...

I didn't care.

Did I really like Soul in that way?

Or was it just because my mom and dad had been weapon and meister, I was expected to fall for him?

I sunk down in my seat, head pounding.


(Kid's P.O.V)

He nipped my cheek happily, and I gave a small squeak.

"Kid..that was amazing...wow..."

I grinned. I could still feel my heart pounding, my breath quick and sharp. We were sat on his bike, driving back to my mansion. In the lane next to us was a black taxi, like the ones you get in England. I chuckled softly. Father had had them brought to Death City after he saw a picture of some on the internet.

As I peered into the cab, I could just about make out the passenger. She looked to be a girl of about mine and Soul's age, and even through the glass, I could feel her eyes burning into us. I saw her silhouette lean forward and say something to the driver. The cab shortly sped off.

Soul sighed.

"We can't please everybody."

I shrugged.

"Who cares? Our happiness is all that matters."

"Love you."

"Love you too."

We drove off, into the same direction of the taxi.


(Maka's P.O.V)

The cab was pushing about 70mph. We were nearly there.

"If I get a speedin' ticket, you're payin' for it", the driver grunted.

"Deal."

The entire journey only took about two minutes. As I hopped out, I handed him the money, and legged it back into the shinigami's home.

When I burst through the front door, I was greeted by a grumpy-looking Liz and a confused Patty and Tsubaki.

"What the hell, Maka?"

"Oh my gawd...you don't know what I saw...oh my gawd..Kid...Soul...sex...my apartment..."

I slumped against the wall in defeat. Liz turned to Tsubaki.

"I told you. Pay up!"

The weapon grumbled and rolled her eyes, before handing Liz the money.

"I'd have thought they'd take it a lil slower than that!"

"Ehh. It is Soul after all, and Kid's a sucker, he'll go along with anything."

I frowned slightly at this. Were they implying that Soul was a pervert? And Kid-well-yes, he could be a bit gullible sometimes, but he wouldn't have sex with someone just because they told him to...

"I think this was a mutual agreement, guys. Face it, Soul and Kid are gay for each other."

The Thompson sisters exchanged a quick glance, before screaming "YES!" at the top of their lungs and more or less dancing around the foyer.

"What?"

The elder calmed herself down.

"Do you remember when me and Soul got totally wasted in the Summer?"

"Yea."

"He told me then. He was gay for Kid."

My mouth hung open.

He'd known he was gay since Summer? And he'd told Liz before me?

"Maka?"

"He-he told you..before he told me?"

She nodded.

"Although he was drunk, remember?"

"Still, it hurts..."

The girls all pulled me into a group hug. I sobbed slightly.

At that precise moment, the happy couple walked through the door.


(Soul's P.O.V)

I walked in through Kid's front door, the young shinigami behind me, holding onto my fingers lightly. He dropped them the second he saw all the girls gathered in a group hug in the foyer.

Maka was in the middle of it, crying. She stopped when she saw us, and wiped her eyes.

"H-hey guys, what's up?"

I threw a glance at Kid. He didn't know what to do either.

Liz cleared her throat.

"Guys...we need to talk. Maka saw you."

I cocked my head to one side.

"Saw us what?"

She made the excalibur face.

"Having sex."

My heart stopped, and Kid staggered backwards slightly.

"H-how?"

"I followed you home..you and Kid both had wood when you left, and I got suspicious..I'm sorry, Soul."

"How did you see?"

She flushed red.

"I-I looked through the keyhole."

Everyone's eyes widened.

The whole room went quiet, until Patty spoke up.

"Soo...you were suspicious that they were having sex, and you willingly looked through the keyhole? Gee, Maka, wasn't the porn enough?"

My meister flushed red.

"Shuddup! I don't know why I did it, okay? I just did..."

I shook my head, and grabbed Kid's hand.

"Okay, Maka. I know you're freaking out, and I understand, but this is serious. We aren't just fucking about. I-I love him."

Patty and Tsubaki "awwww"'-ed at this, and Liz closed her eyes and smiled.

My meister sniffed sadly.

"I-I know..but it hurts...I think I liked you too, Soul."

"Did you, though?"

Everyone gasped as my boyfriend spoke up.

"What do you mean, Kid?"

"Are you sure you liked him? And that it wasn't just because it would the same as what your parents had? I know it's what your father wants."

Maka gasped lightly.

"I dun-dunno..possibly..they felt like real feelings..."

I stepped forward, still holding onto Kid's hand.

"Maka. Could you ever see yourself with me?"

She thought for a while.

"N-no.."

"Who could you see yourself with?"

A small smile graced her lips.

"Crona."

Kid chuckled.

"You're in luck, Miss Albarn..I think he feels the same way."

She blushed.

"I'm so, so sorry, you guys, for...everything. Being such a bitch. For watching. For my father."

She said this last part to Kid, who nodded weakly. I pulled him closer.

"Shall we..carry on with our sleepover?"

"HELL YES!" came Patty's excited cry.

We all laughed, and started to make our way back to the living room. I was stopped, however, by my meister grabbing me by the arm, and leading me and Kid to the side.

"I want to make it up to you guys..and since Soul's only got a few souls left until he becomes a Death Scythe-"

"I have?"

She nodded.

"Four, I think."

"COOL!"

Kid kissed my cheek softly as a reward. Maka blushed, before carrying on.

"Well, seeing as Soul only needs a few more souls until he's a Death Scythe, and Kid will get to wield a Death Scythe, how's about you guys do a mission together? Get a buncha souls, and Kid, you can start using Soul the second he becomes a Death Scythe."

I looked at Kid, eyebrow cocked.

"Sounds like a good idea to me."

"What about the witches soul, though?"

Maka grinned.

"Haven't you heard? Aparantly there's a mission just opened the other day and there's about 5 souls and a witches soul, all together! It'll be perfect!"

Kid looked at me, chewing his lip in thought. Gawd, he looks so freaking cute when he does that...

"Well, my father did say he was going to give me a Death Scythe sometime in the next month...I did tell Liz and Patty that I was going to make them my Death Scythes though..."

I snaked my arms around his waist.

"You could have all three of us. Imagine it: we'd be the ultimate team, hahaa~"

"Hmm?" Maka growled.

"What?"

"Where do I fit into this equation?"

I looked at Kid again.

"I wonder..."

"What?"

"We could..switch weapons...?"

"Could we?"

"I'm sure we could..but it'd take a bit of resonating before we're ready for a full-on battle."

"Sounds like a plan!" Maka chipped in.

I nodded, and we all made our way back to the living room.

I snuggled up on the couch with Kid, who was quickly falling asleep, draped gently across my chest. He didn't weigh a thing. Light as a feather. Only the occaisional tug on my hair as he twirled it around his finger let me know he was still there.

"Hey", I whispered into his ear.

"Hmmmm?"

"You wanna share a sleeping bag tonight?"

He chuckled softly.

"Sure."
