Maka and Soul began to walk over to the receptionist. She had short curly, brunette hair that fell in place on her shoulders. She was kind of on the chubby side, and was also wearing a fleece shawl around her neck.
As they made their way closer to the woman, Soul could hear her humming a rather cheerful tune.
"Excuse me, miss?" Maka asked as the receptionist's humming came to an abrupt halt.
"Why, hello, young lady! What can I do you for today?" she asked as she picked up her pen from her holder and began to click it.
"I was wondering if you could tell us the floor and room number of two people residing here?"
"Which two people are you speaking of?" she asked as the clicking of her pen grew faster.
Maka started, "Well, we're looking for a-"
"A loud mouth, spiky haired, egotistical boy, and a shy, curvaceous, long-brown haired girl that gets pushed around by him." interrupted Soul.
"Soul!" hissed Maka as she shot a piercing glance his way.
Soul glared back at Maka."Well, you know it's true in both ways!" Then he gave her a smug smirk.
"Wha-what does that mean? Maka asked in a half startled, half irritated voice.
"What do you think it means?" huffed Soul as he began to lean against the receptionist's desk.
"I don't know, that's why I am asking you!" Maka yelled in response to Soul's inquiry.
"Ugh, fine" Soul gently pushed himself away from the desk as he started to answer Maka. "Tsubaki lets Black Star walk all over her for one." Soul stopped to take a breath. "Secondly, Tsubaki is a weapon, so she literally gets "thrown" around by Black Star."
"Oh, so that's what you meant!" Maka said as she gave Soul a stern smile.
At the same time as this was happening, the receptionist was staring at them all the while, wondering, why her, of all people, had to experience two commotions in the office caused by the same two people before it was it was even 9:30.
"Um, if you two are finished with your little quarrel, could you please tell me who you're looking for?"
"Oh, miss, I am so very sorry, please forgive us!" Maka pleaded.
"Ho, ho, ho, why certainly, young miss!" she said as she smiled at Maka brightly.
