Her hair pissed him off.
She was not a child anymore, so why did she insist on pulling her hair back into the hairstyle that portrayed the epitome of innocence and childhood? It was unnecessary. Her hair looked much better when it was out anyway.
He loved the way it danced around her shoulders when she moved. The way it suited her face shape so well.
It made her look so much more irresistible.
Not to mention the god damn smell that wafted his direction when she was near. The smell of her shampoo. It was like strawberries, coconut and vanilla all mixed together to form a ridiculously delicious scent. He found himself purposely standing close to her just so he could catch a whiff of it every now and then.
He was so uncool when it came to Maka.
"Arg! I don't get it!" The meister's voice echoed from her room. Sighing he lifted himself off the couch (where he seemed to be a lot these days) and trudged into Maka's bedroom to see what her complaining was about.
Peaking around the corner he spotted the said blonde rubbing her temples in annoyance. Soul stepped into the room.
"What's your problem?" The scythe asked glancing over her shoulder. He was faced with what looked like homework. No surprise. Moving his eyes upward, he read the title of the sheet.
"Maka! No wonder you don't get it! This is 3 star Meister work!" Soul pointed to the heading.
"I know, but I understand most of it, it's just this question." Maka grumbled, continuing to rub her skull.
He frowned, noticing her hair still up in pigtails from school.
It was one of those spur of the moment actions. Before he knew it his hands were slipping the hair ties out from her hair, throwing them carelessly on the desk next to the bundle of sheets she was so frustrated with. He flicked her hands away from her skull, replacing them with his own.
Soul combed the blonde hair through his fingers twice before sinking his fingers down into her tresses, finding his way through the jungle of strands to her temples, creating small circular motions. Effectively giving her a head massage.
Her hair was even softer than he'd anticipated it to be and the perfume radiating from it was enough to make Soul's mouth water. It seemed that the scythe was enjoying giving the massage just as much as Maka was enjoying receiving it.
She tipped her head back to look up at him, his hands still buried in her hair. She looked confused.
"What?" Soul questioned, halting his massaging.
"What are you doing?" her brows knitted together.
"Uh...Giving you a head massage?" Soul paused. "What's wrong with that?"
"Nothing, it just doesn't seem a very Soul-like thing to do." She was smirking up at him now.
"Fine then, I'll stop." He made a move to retract his hands from her head, but another pair stopped him before he could escape.
"No keep going, it's good." Soul didn't miss the shade of colour that spread across her cheeks when she said this. He gave her one of his rare genuine smiles before returning the pressure back to her scalp, massaging in all the right spots. Maka had gone back to her homework, this time getting the correct answers without fuss.
"You should wear your hair down more often." Soul mumbled almost to himself.
"Really? I don't like it out." She drummed her pen against the desk, thinking.
"It looks better, trust me."
Soul yawned and removed his hands from her head, careful not to pull out any hair on the way. She let out a groan of complaint. "I'm going to bed."
Maka sighed and swiveled around. "Night then, thanks for the massage." She smiled at him.
"Yeah, no problem. Don't stay up too late studying. It's not cool." The albino retreated into his own room feeling both accomplished and content.
He felt even better when Maka wore her hair down 3 of the 5 days the preceding week.
