A.N Short chapter I know...sorry just wanted to write something from Souls POV. Next chapters will show where the other characters are after 5 years...
Disclaimer: As usual I dont own Soul Eater
Soul sat in his room at the small keyboard piano he had set up in the corner. He had decided not to take a shower, as he had heard Maka leave, and that would mean that Blair would get lonely and try and find him, so it was safer for him to just stay in here. Another birthday was coming around he was turning 22 not an age to make a big deal of, but Maka would try. His birthday didn't always bring such happy memories, when he was at home with his family his birthdays just seemed to slip on by without much notice. It seemed that his parents were so wrapped up in whatever Wes was doing at the time that he would feel like a afterthought. Not with Maka though, she would try her best to make it special for him, and in the last 10 years she had done just that. Soul looked out at the dark night sky, so much had happened since the moon incident, the black round moon still hanging in the sky as a reminder. He sighed as he turned towards the keyboard, and put his thoughts into music. He played a song that was familiar to him, a dark sounding piece as Maka called it, it was what he played when they first met, the day he chose to let someone in, and the day she chose there were men she could trust. As his fingers brushed the keys he poured all his thoughts and feelings into them.
"This is real music" he thought. Music layered with emotion, because it wasn't 'cool' to show it any other way. As he was playing he heard Blair scratching at his door.
"Soouuuul-kun Bu-tan got locked out, Maka told me to keep you entertained how can I do that when you shut yourself it there?" She called.
"Ugh...just a minute" he called as he pulled himself away from his music
he opened the door to see Blair standing there completely naked.
"Hooray scythy boy wants to play" she beamed as she hugged him.
"Really Blair that's not cool, could" he said with his hands in his pockets completely un-phased by his house mates lack of attire.A few years ago she may have gotten a reaction but Soul just didn't see her like that any more.
"Nawww doesnt scythy boy want Blair?" she said as the continued to envelope him.
Just as this was happening Soul heard the front door open. Maka was home.
"BLAIR! WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT DOING THAT TO SOUL, HOW DARE YOU!" she screamed throwing the nearest book at Blair…Again.
"waaaaaaaaa you told me to entertain him" she responded as she turned into a cat.
Soul was still leaning against the door frame of his room hands still in his pockets, just watching the situation unfold, and quietly laughing to himself.
