Realizing True Love

Chapter 3

She was crying. Staying at Black Star's and trying to get to know each other was wasn't the smartest thing to do.

She had come up with the idea that the only reason she really loved him was because he saved her life.

She had now reached her apartment. She now realized that the real person that she loved was none other than her partner.

"Soul."

Right now she wanted his comfort. His touch. Anything that could make her feel human again. She wanted his arms around her, and him telling her that he'll protect her no matter what.

She smiled to herself as she got in and then went straight to the living room. She then got the shock of her life.

"WHAT IS SOUL DOING WITH TSUBAKI?"

"What do you think you're doing with my Soul?"

Soul and Tsubaki groggily got up. Their eyes were still full of sleep when they looked up to see an angry Maka.

Maka was all ready to 'Maka chop' Tsubaki, when a hand flew to her wrist.

"What are you doing? That is an uncool way to say good morning, even for you!" Maka stared into the scarlet eyes that belonged to Soul.

Her face softened. Then the tears began to well up in her eyes. She then shocked him by hugging him tightly.

"Oh, Soul! I broke up with him!" She was now sobbing into his chest. He simply looked down at her.

Tsubaki was now standing up. She had a gobsmacked look on her face.

Maka continued. " I realized that I only loved him because he saved my life then. It soon faded and now I've realized that I love you along Soul Evans!"

For Tsubaki, she should have been happy to hear these words. It would finally mean that she and Black Star finally had a chance! But then why did her heart feel heavy when Maka said these words to Soul?

"Because you LOVE him! Sheesh, I thought that a smart person like you would have figured that one out by now."

L-love? No way! How is that even possible?"

"Coz dumbass, you've seen the loving side of Soul." Then her conscience said something quietly.

"I'm sorry what was that?"

" I said that you've always loved him anyways but didn't realize it!"

Tsubaki was silent. Was this really true? Then she thought to all the times she was with Soul. It was like he saw right into her Soul. Ironic huh?

She realized that she only loved Black Star like a brother.

"Man I hate it when you're always right."

"That's why I love being your conscience! The amount of times I get to show you up. Ha!"

Just then, Maka wiped her tears and set an ice cold glare at Tsubaki. She flinched. "That look just because I slept round her apartment with only Soul?"

"But then I come home to find out that you spent your whole night with a slut! She's just using you Soul! She's using you to get over the fact that I went out with Black Star and not her.

"Well you know what Tsubaki? You can just run off to him coz he's free. Soul is MINE so go away! Leave me and Soul in peace."

Tsubaki had taken a lot of shit, but never from Maka. She started to tear up.

"I- I thought we were friends M- Maka. H- How can you say that to me? You don't even know what happened."

The tears wouldn't stop streaming down her face. Tsubaki made no attempt to wipe them. Soul shook Maka off of him. He walked right up to Tsubaki to wipe away her tears with his thumb.

He hates it when a girl cries. It's one of his natural weaknesses.

He turned to face Maka. Maka saw that his eyes were swimming with hate and anger. It was all directed at her.

"Why Soul? Why her?" Maka's voice was barely audible.

"You wanna know why? Simple. What you've just said to Tsubaki was really about yourself. You also said that Black Star saved you. That was one time! I've saved you so many times! I even went crazy just to save you from Crona. I'm your fucking death scythe! I do it every day! I swore to myself that if you were to break, I'm not going to pick up your pieces. Well here you are, broken."

Maka who was in shock, then seethed with anger. She directed it all to Tsubaki.

"This is all your fault!"

"No. This is all your fault. When you were going out with Black Star, did you see Tsubaki trying to kill you? No."

"Finally you got over this bitch!"

"Yeah, I know. You should've killed me for not noticing Tsubaki."

"I was thinking on doing that."

Tsubaki gave Soul a warm smile even though she was still upset. Soul smiled back. "Don't be so upset. You're fine now."

"Thank you for all of this Soul, but you shouldn't have done this for me."

Soul gave her a sharky grin. They both forgot about Maka.

"Yes, I really did. You've made me realize that there are plenty of other women out there to love. And right now, I know that there is already a girl for me to love."

He was staring deeply into her eyes that she blushed lightly. She had to turn her head away because she was shy for him to see her blush.

Maka had noticed this. "If Soul can make her blush and Black Star couldn't, then she must really love him. I wonder if I should go and make up with Black Star. I really miss him." Maka looked at the two lovebirds and sighed.

"Time to go and look for Black Star." She walked out of the apartment with a smile on her face.

"Soul I could say the same thing too. I too have found another guy too." Soul smirked at her.

He then wrapped an arm around her waist to close the gap between them and then kissed her passionately. Their kiss started to get more forceful and wet. She wrapped both her arms round his neck. When they pulled away, Tsubaki rested her head into his neck. "I love you Soul."

Soul smiled. "I love you too Tsubaki. So do you wanna go out with me?" Tsubaki looked up and grinned. "I thought you would never ask!"

~x~

Well that is the end of such a nice fanfics. I joking, only you can decide if it was nice or not. I don't care if you think that I made Maka a bit of a bitch, coz she kinda pisses me off. Please review!
