The Silent Breakfast

Maka's eyes were heavy. Her body was sore. Her legs restless, her neck had a crick, and her wrists were cramped. She had fallen asleep on the loveseat in the lest comfortable position possible. She forced her eyes open and glanced over to Soul's door. She breathed in and smelt eggs and pancakes. She pushed herself up and as soon as her bare feet touched the hardwood floor she let out a yelp.

"Uhh Maka?" Soul's voice sounded despondent and soft.

"Yeah Soul?"

"I wanna say I'm sorry. I shouldn't have ran from you it's just that …" He stopped talking and stared at the cooking food. Maka wanted to run up behind him and wrap her arms around him. To kiss him and run her hands though his spiky white hair. But she didn't, she just stood there. (AN: In a Durrrrr like fashion.) She finally strode over to the table and sat down.

"It's ready." Soul said his voice even lower now. He sat a plate in front of Maka and another across from her. Maka took a bite. It was perhaps some of the best food she'd ever eaten. But the heavy depression in the room and the palpable tension made the food lose it's taste. The pancakes were dry and the yoke to the eggs cold. Maka finished the food, thanked Soul and left.

She had said she was going to the library but somehow Soul doubt it. Leave it up to Soul to think a bookworm wouldn't go to the library. Soul dismissed the thought and pushed himself up from the table and walked over to the window to stare out at the overcast sky. The clouds were dark and gray.

"It's gonna rain soon." Soul pondered aloud. He glanced over to the coat rack and the bucket that sat next to the door. She hadn't taken any of the coats or the umbrella. He opened the door to her room and looked into her closet. She had left her usual black coat as well. He threw on his own jacket and grabbed her coat and ran outside. He jumped on to his motorcycle, kicked the starter hard and rode off towards the library.

Maka shivered. It was damned cold and she beat herself for forgetting her coat. She glanced up to the gray sky as thunder rolled. Tiny drops of rain began to fall. She yelped as the cold water struck her bare arms. She sighed when she realized she didn't even have on her usual long-sleeved shirt. Thunder clashed loudly and Maka jumped. The rain came heavy now. Maka jumped underneath an awning of a shop and sat on the iron bench outside of the door. 'Damn I'm gonna be here all day.' She signed. She glanced down to herself. She was soaked!Her sweater vest was heavy and slopped with water. Her white shirt clung to her body and you could see clean though it. If it wasn't for her vest she was certain that she would be quite humiliated.

"Yo, Maka." a low voice called. Maka looked up, There was a blur of matted white hair and a black leather jacket.

"Soul!" Maka gleamed a smile. Soul hopped off the motorcycle and ran over to Maka. He removed a bundle from his jacket and wrapped her in her warm, more importantly dry coat.

"C-Can you t-take me home Soul?" Maka asked still shivering.

Soul wrapped his arms around Maka. "Damn woman. Your freezing." Soul lead her over to the bike and sat her down. He mounted the bike himself and kicked the starter. Maka wrapped her arms around his waist and Soul reved the engine and sped of towards their apartment.

(AN: I hope you've all enjoyed read this and much as I did writing it. I'm sorry that the chapters have been a bit short but I've been sorta kinda eager to put them out. I'd like to thank those that favorite'd this story and those who reviewed it. I'm planning to focus on my OS till I have a decent amount for that before I could back to this fan-fic. Though if you'd rather me work on this left me know.)

Review are like hugs.

Please don't leave me unloved.
