Chapter 13: Confession
Kid's POV_
After practicing our hearts out, I looked at Soul. "She's gonna love it," I said.
"Yeah," he replied. I looked at the ground for a while.
"Soul," I said, looking up, "What did Liz tell you?"
"She..." Soul started, but I could tell he wasn't sure how to say it, "She... she showed me your diary..."
"It's not a diary! It's a notebook!" I shouted, "Diary is asymmetrical! Notebook has 8 letters, so it's perfectly symmetrical!" I cleared my throat, "Continue..."
"Umm..." Soul stared at me.
"Did you guys do anything?" I asked.
"I think you should ask Liz that question," Soul replied.
"Fine, very well, I will," I said, flying away on Beelzebub. I got back to the house and went up to Liz's room, "Liz, open up." I knocked on her door.
"Just a minute," she said. I waited exactly thirty seconds until she opened the door.
"That wasn't a minute," I looked at her, "You've lied to me twice now."
"What?" she asked.
"Where's my notebook?" I asked.
"What notebook?" she acted like she didn't know.
I sighed, "What were you doing at Soul's house?" She was quiet for a full thirty-five seconds. "Tell me!" I shouted.
"No! How 'bout you tell me what you did with Maka? Huh?! Oh, too late! I already know! I had to find out for myself! I can't believe you would keep something from me Kid!" she cried.
"Liz...-" I started, but she interrupted me, "I kissed Soul! That's what happened! You happy now?"
"What? Why?!" I yelled.
"Payback!" She shouted.
"But... Liz... I love you," I looked down.
She looked at me with sympathy, "Kid, I don't like Soul. Not the way I like you..."
"Likewise," I replied, "Liz, I love you... I love you more than symmetry!"
"Well then I guess we're even," she smirked, blushing.
"Truce?" I asked, holding out my hand. She grabbed my hand and pulled me closer to her and whispered in my ear, "Truce."
She kissed me.
"I'll never lie to you again. I promise."
The next day
Soul's POV_
It's time, I thought to myself, Time to sing to Maka... The spring dance is tonight... I really hope she says yes, 'cause if she turns me down, that would just be uncool.
"You ready Soul?" Kid asked.
"Yeah," I replied, "Black*star, Tsubaki, you guys ready?" Tsubaki nodded and Black*star shouted, "YEAH! OF COURSE WE ARE! WE'RE ALWAYS READY!"
We were at the park that Kid was able to reserve just for us. Only Liz, Maka, and Blaire were the audience.
"Don't be nervous," Tsubaki said, putting her hand on my shoulder, "she's your meister. She loves you." She walked back over to Black*star. The last words she said ringed in my ears. Does she? I asked myself in thought.
"THE GIRLS ARE COMING!" Black*star shouted.
Maka's POV_
"I still don't know why we're here," I said.
"You'll see," Blaire smirked.
I looked at the covered up gazebo. It had been covered in black fabric. I wonder... I thought to myself. The trees were blooming flower blossoms. The wind blew the pink petals down onto the soft green grass.
"Maka?" Liz looked at me.
"Yeah?" I said.
"I'm sorry," she rubbed her arm.
"Me too," I smiled, "It was just a big mix up."
"So we're still friends?" she asked me.
"Yeah," I nodded.
"Good," she said.
"Let's put the past behind us," I said.
"Or we could just blame Soul and Kid," she smirked.
"Haha, yeah," I laughed. "I'll have to Maka Chop them later."
We walked up to a bench that had our names on it. As soon as we sat down, we heard the piano.
"Soul," I said under my breath.
The cover on the gazebo disappeared. All the boys plus Tsubaki were up there, all holding their own instruments. Black*star, of course, the drums, Soul the piano, Tsubaki with her violin, and Kid and his electric guitar. It was so predictable. Soul was the only one wearing a suit, besides Kid who always basically wore a suit, and the others just wore their regular outfits. Soul kept playing the piano, and then, he started to sing...
Song: Incomplete by Backstreet Boys, (bold Italics are Soul and Kid, regular Italics are Soul, and bold is Kid.) Suggestion: Listen to the song while reading, it makes it feel more realistic :3
Empty, spaces, fill me up with holes
Distant faces, with no place left to go
Without you, within me
I can't find no rest
Where I'm going... Is anybody's guess
I tried, to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake, but my world is half asleep
I pray, for this heart to be unbroken
but without you all I'm going to be is...
Incomplete...
Voices, tell me, I should carry on
but I am, swimming,
In an ocean on alone!
Baby, my baby...
It's written on your face
You still, wonder...
If we made a big mistake!
I tried, to go on like I never knew you,
I'm awake, but my world is half asleep
I pray, for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be is...
Incomplete ~~~
I don't mean to drag it on
But I can't seem to let you go
I don'twannamake you
face this world alone ~~
Don't wanna let you go (alone)
I tried, to go on like I never knew you,
I'm awake, but my world is half asleep
I pray, for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be is...
Incomplete ~~~
Incomplete...
After the song was over, Soul turned around, still seated by the piano. Kid spoke first, "Liz Thompson, will you go to the spring dance with me?"
Liz's face went red; she almost wanted to cry. She ran up to Kid and hugged him, saying "Yes!" I saw Soul smirk. He just sat there. Why am I even here? I thought to myself. I started to leave, but I stopped when I heard Soul call my name through the mic, "Maka! Where are you going? Leaving with out saying good bye is uncool."
I turned around and looked at him.
"Maka," he repeated my name with his beautiful voice, "Come to the Spring Dance with me. I don't care if your dancing isn't cool, I wouldn't wanna go with anyone else."
I slowly walked up to him. I looked up at him. He smirked again, showing his shark teeth. I smiled and nodded. He held out his hand and I took it. He pulled me into a hug. Then he looked at me.
"I know, this wasn't very cool. I should've just asked you instead of going through all this trouble," he said.
"Are you kidding?" I looked at him. "Your singing is amazing! Why haven't you ever sung for me before?"
"Yeah right, like I would just randomly sing for you," he smirked.
"MAKA..."
"But I really do like your singing," he said, stopping me from hitting him in the head with my dictionary.
"Soul? Since when did you hear me sing?" I asked.
"Like a week ago. I heard you play your guitar and sing, and I was listening the whole time..." He replied.
"Oh, gosh!" I covered my face, "I'm so embarrassed!"
"Don't be," he pulled my hands away from my face, "you're an amazing singer... besides, who do you think inspired me to sing this song to you?"
I smirked. "I better go get ready for the dance."
"Ok," Soul replied, "please don't take too long."
"I won't" I laughed.
Thirty minutes of getting ready later ~~~ :3 Normal POV_
The boys pulled up in a limo that Kid had. The girls came out one by one, out of Kid's house. Patty and Liz both came out first, and because they knew Kid would freak out, they both wore the same outfit. Patty argued with Liz for more than twenty minutes on what to wear, and Patty won. They were wearing dark yellow dresses with giraffe print on them, dark yellow shoes with giraffe print on them too, giraffe earings, and their nail polish was giraffe-styled. Patty was super happy, but Liz was devastated.
Soul and Black*star laughed, but Kid was marveling at their perfect symmetry. How both their outfits matched, and both their hair was down. Almost all of it was perfect! Except for their physical features. When Kid remembered that he went back to looking normal. The girls got in and Tsubaki came out the door next. She was wearing a long, sky blue dress that had ruffles, but it was skinny not poofy. She had jade earings, sky blue high heels, and her hair was up in her usual pony tail. Black*star's eyes turned into hearts when he saw how beautiful his goddess was.
"MY GODDESS! YOU LOOK AMAZING!" Black*star shouted. She laughed and got in.
Then Maka came out. Soul's eyes widened. She was wearing a bright pink dress that split just before her knees and cascaded down past her feet and behind her. Her hair was wavy and she had soft pearl earings. She had light pink high heels.
"You look amazing Maka," Soul said, looking at her.
"Psh," Maka laughed, "I didn't really like any of it, it was all Blaire's idea." Then Blaire came out wearing a purple silk dress and black shoes, and her normal hat.
"You guys better go now!" She shouted, "You're gonna miss it!"
We waved as the driver drove us to the spring dance. Maka had a worried look on her face.
"Maka," Soul got her attention, "You ok?"
"Yeah I'm fine..." Maka said. He could tell she wasn't.
"Come on, you can tell me," he put his hand on her shoulder.
"Alright," she said, "I'm afraid I'm gonna mess up..."
"Mess what up?" Soul asked.
"... Dancing," she closed her eyes and covered her face with her hands.
"Don't worry 'bout it," Soul smirked, patting her back, "I'll lead."
She looked up at him, smiling. When they got there, Soul, Maka, and Tsubaki all followed Black*star to the food. Kid, Liz, and Patty all danced symmetrically until Patty ruined it.
"LET'S DO RING AROUND THE ROSY!" She shouted.
"PATTY NO!" Kid freaked out, but it was too late. Liz had a smirk on her face as they spun around in circles.
"Well," Kid looked at their feet, "At least the circle we're making is sort of symmetrical."
"Just enjoy the dance, Kid," Liz looked at him.
"I will," he smiled, "but only because you're here."
Then, all of a sudden, Lord Death appeared out of no where and grabbed a mic. "Ok everyone, listen up listen up!" They all looked at him. He continued, "I have a song request, AND it's a slow song! It's also a song from the human world, so we haven't really heard it before. But I hope you enjoy it, grab a partner, and dance!"
Crista walked up on stage, wearing a long white skinny dress and white shoes. She was holding Jon's hand. She walked up to the mic, "Hi people of Death City! I am Crista, and I chose this song. It's from the human world because that's where I've been for a long time. I now realized that I am a weapon!" she shouted. Everyone looked at her. "Well, anyways, I hope you like it!"
Song: Why don't you love me by Hot Chelle Rae (suggestion: listen to the song while reading, it makes it feel more realistic :3 ) (No one is singing it it's coming from the speakers.) (the song's words)
The song started, everyone had a partner. Soul looked at Maka who looked at Soul. He held out his hand, and she took it.
See I can't wake up
I'm living a nightmare that
keeps playing over again...
Kid and Liz danced, trying to make it symmetrical. Patty danced with her giraffe, and Black*star made an exception for food, he went and danced with Tsubaki.
locked in a room
so hung up on you
and you're cool with just bein' friends.
So far, Soul and Maka's dancing was perfect. No one stepped on the other's foot yet.
"Have you been practicing?" Soul smirked.
"Maybe," she laughed.
left on the sidelines

Soul took bigger steps, but Maka kept up. They were moving around the room, spinning and twirling. Soul tried not to feel uncool; he was doing it for Maka.
Why don't you love me?
Why don't you love me..
see I'm just too scared
to tell you the truth
but my heart ache can't take anymore
Soul held up her hand and she twirled. She's so beautiful... he thought to himself.
broken and bruised
longing for you

(I'll keep believing)
Till I'm with you
Maka's eyes shined as the spotlight was on them. Black*star was trying to hold himself back from ruining the moment.
Why don't you love me
kiss me
I can feel your heart tonight
it's killing me!
why don't you
love me
touch me
tell me I'm you're everything
the air you breathe and

'cause I could be all that

Oh...
Why don't you love me
Why don't you love me
Yeah, Why don't you love me
Why don't you love me
Why don't you love me?
At the end Soul spun Maka out and pulled her back in and dipped her. Everyone clapped. That's when she realized they were being watched. Maka tried to smiled but she was nervous she didn't do good.
"Maka," Soul smirked, "You were amazing."
She finally smiled. She pulled herself up and kissed him.
"OK OK EVERYONE! Go back to what you were doing!" Lord Death shouted.
Everyone went back to dancing and talking as another song came on. Soul pulled Maka up and they were standing. When Maka pulled away he was frozen. "Maka?" Soul looked at her.
"YEAH BRO YOU FINALLY GOT A GIRL FRIEND IT'S ABOUT TIME!" Black*star shouted. Maka, with out anyone else noticing her, went for the balcony. She looked up at the night sky.
"I can't believe I just kissed him..." Maka said. Soul came up behind her.
"Maka," he said.
"S-Soul I'm s- so sorry!" She covered her face. "I just kind of got all caught up in the moment and-"
He kissed her. They kissed on a balcony. The stars shined in the dark night sky. Maka's dream had come true. He confessed to her on a balcony at night.
"Maka, I... I love you," Soul said. Maka blushed.
"I love you too," she said. They continued to kiss.
"So they're the couple, huh?" A voice said from under the balcony. Soul and Maka didn't notice.
"I'll have to kill them."
MusicMaker87: Woo hoo! Soul finally confessed! It's about time!
Soul: Yeah yeah
Maka: *laughs*
Evil voice from under the balcony: HAHAHAHAHA
Soul: what was that?
MusicMaker87: Oh... nothing..
Maka: Whatever it is, it's annoying. I'm gonna kill it.
Soul: That's why I love you.
MusicMaker87: AWW how sweet! Oops... I just ruined the moment. Now I feel like Black*star.
Black*star: HEY!

Black*star: Hey! I was gonna say that!

Liz: Hey Kid, how come I don't get a nick name!
Patty: YEAH AND ME TOO! I WANNA BE CALLED THE GIRAFFE QUEEN!
Kid: but I like your names the way they are! They're perfect, AND if you add them together, Liz + Patty = 8 letters!
Liz: Oh boy...
