"Hey Maka dinner i…Maka?" Soul said as he enters her room. The girl was writing something in a notebook. He has seen the notebook now a day since the sleepover. He sigh wondering who is it this time.
"Maka what are you writing now?" ask the scythe leading against the door way. Before she could even replied she wrote something down really fast and then look up closing the notebook.
"Nothing just, what Kid was doing." the cream head girl replied.
"Ok….who is it this time? IS it a girl again?"
"No, it's a guy and his really close to you too." She said matter of factily.
"Really?" he said lazily.
"It's Black Star." She said as if proud.
Soul took the information into his head. After a minute or so he started to laugh out loud making his partner pout.
"What's so funny?" she said offend.
"Black Star? I mean I like the guy but his so self absorbed. He isn't even Kid's type. First Black Star is unsymmetrical in Kid's eyes with his star and all. Two Black Star challenge Kid sometimes wanting to beat his ass. Sure they're friends but they're also rivals. They don't have chemistry." Soul explains.
"Really Soul really? or is it what they want you to think?"
The white head sigh "look Maka, you been at this ever since Bair told you guys that Kid had a "secret admirer". You start to follow people that might be Kid's "admire" but you get it wrong all the time. It's starting to get really uncool cause then people might think you're a stalker. That's super uncool to be a stalkers partner."
At the last statement Maka did her famous "Maka chop" on him.
"Am not a stalker. It's call investing. Aren't you at least a little bit curious?" ask Maka.
"Yes but on like you, am a cool friend that I'll wait." Said Soul rubbing his head in pain.
Maka cross her arms, "Don't you want to find out if is true? At least this one?"
Soul rolled his eyes. The only way is to agree since she'll still going to bother him. He sigh "Fine but if you're wrong, you'll be doing the cooking, laundry for a month."
That made Maka eye sparkle "You got a deal."
She went and hugs Soul which made him blush lightly.
"Ok read all of this so you'll be up to date." His meister said when she gave him the notebook.
Soul started to read everything. He wonder how his partner knew what Kid was eating and with whom. Once he was done he places it in front of him as Make look at him excitedly.
"You sure your not a stalker?" ask Soul and dodge when the girl toss him a book.
"No I just know how to get information." She said with a nerve pop on her head.
"Ok ok. So half of the thing you wrote is creepy. I can't believe am saying this but you seem to be half right about this one. Although I don't believe Black star nor Kid has anything to do with each other." Stated Soul.
"Whatever, but now that your helping me. We might know it faster." Said Maka excitedly.
"Oh man what am I getting myself into." He mutters.
The next day Maka started to look at Kid and the others closely. She started to write everything that was going on. The scythe blinks wondering how Maka doesn't seem tired of writing.
"Hey Soul what's up?" ask Black Star suddenly in front of him.
"Nothing Maka being annoying as always." He said.
"Oh…"
Soul lifts an eye brow at his best friend who seem to be quiet for moment. That's really unusual.
"Hey Soul, do you think Maka likes someone?" ask the assassin.
"Why? Are you going to ask her out or something?" ask Soul something inside him getting tick off.
"Hell no! It's not that! I always thought she like you but no a days she seem to be looking at Kiddo a lot." Explain Black Star.
"Kiddo?"
"I mean Kid."
"Er…ok…but I don't think so…" he said and mutters "hopefully."
The blue head chuckles.
"Black Star am so sorry about Saturday" apologize Kid who went next to them.
"how many times have I told it's fine. Beside she couldn't have killed me. I mean am Black Star, it takes more then rope and throwing me of a tower to get me kill hahahahhaha." Said the boy then reassure him "no really its ok. So stop worrying."
Kid smiles a little.
Soul something in both of there eyes as if they knew something. He shook his head.
'arg Maka report is getting in my head' he thought angrily.
"What happen on Saturday?" he ask.
Kid start to explain to the weapon what happen with Patti, and Black Star almost death, the shinigami made sure to take the part of him and the ninja making out and stuff.
"Note to self don't get into Patti bad side, and never give her sugar." Soul said causing his friends to laugh.
"Don't worry about that." Kid said "she's under watch."
When the class was over Maka and Soul wait till everyone left. The pony tailed girl told Soul to tell her everything. So he did while listening Maka smirk as she wrote it.
"See I knew there was something going on." She said.
"Yes but remember it was almost a death situation." Remind Soul "So it can mean nothing too."
"Stop being so negative." The bookworm said.
Throughout the day they follow Kid everywhere watching his every move.
When school was over Maka decided to follow Kid. They kept a distance from him yet in view. He was waking with his weapon. Soul started to sigh every now and then.
Maka saw that Kid stops so she got her friend by the arm and went behind a wall. She peek and saw that he went to another direction while the Thompson sister going back to their manor.
Just like in the movie and books she starts to follow Kid closely. They were some close calls sense Kid kept looking back were they where.
Then he stopped in front of a store waiting.
Maka and Soul went behind a wall. When they were about to peek he was suddenly gone.
"What he couldn't have disappear?" exclaim the girl running where the shinigami boy was.
She looks around but couldn't fine him.
"Why are you following me?" ask the devil himself. Maka scream and jump on top of Soul who was surprise.
His face was expressionless.
"What…do you mean?" stammer the scythe master.
"Have you forgotten that I can sense souls too?" he ask her.
"No but I wasn't following you, we just happen to be here that's all." Maka lied, making Soul look at her with 'who are you kidding' look.
"Sure what ever you say. So it so happen you going where ever I was going in school too?" the boy said lifting a brow and crossing his arms.
"Maybe or have you forgotten that we're in the same classes?"
Soul wonders if it was him or was there tension in the air as both meister look at each other.
"You know what I was about to do some shopping but your being a jerk right now. Come on Soul." Said the pony tailed girl as she turn to their apartment. Soul sigh giving Kid a apologetic look and follow her meister.
They didn't talk the whole way until they reach their apartment.
"Grrr this close Soul we were this close." She said frustrated. "Arg why did I forget about his Soul Perception!"
"You do know his a shinigami right?" remind the red eyed teen. That only causes the girl to pull her pony tail in anger.
"If you don't want to be bald I suggest you clam down."
Maka sigh knowing he was right. She had to clam down if she wants to finger everything out. Tomorrow she was sure she'll get him.
Next day.
Maka was acting the best way possible to be normal. She didn't want Kid to be suspicious about her again.
"Ohhhh Maka and Kid sitting in a tree…K.I.S…I.N.G, first comes love, then come something, then the baby…" Black star started to sing but was failing since he forgotten about the lyrics. Maka did her famous move on him.
"Ow what was that for?" he whined.
"For acting like a moron. If your going to say that song at least say it right." The ponytailed girl stated as she open the book. She glace at Kid who look piss off. She wonders if it was at her, or the loud mouth.
"So what's the name you call Kid now?" ask Maka trying to get information. 'Might as well start with the idiot'. She thought
Black Star blinks at her confused. "Whatever do you mean?"
"You know what I mean." Snapped the girl looking at him angrily.
He had a goofy grin and innocently has he could "Maka stop being mean. Even if I had a nickname why should I give it to you?"
The girl growls at him wanting to punch the stupid grin of his face.
"Admit it you like Kid." Said the blue head boy.
"What?" exclaim Maka surprise.
"Ha who's the one acting now? I seen you look at him." He said and look at her dangerously "Plus you been stalking him…us for a while now."
"Us?... no I wasn't, what made you think that." Lied the girl but knew it was a dumb lied.
"Well then why do you keep glancing at him every time?"
"Because?"
"You love him….to think you like Soul. Anyways Kid won't like you, he loves someone else." Said the assassin.
"How do you know?" ask Maka deciding to play his little game.
"Oh cause he told me."
"Really who is it?" she asks with pleading eyes.
"Haha! Why should I tell you? It's for me to know and for you to never ever find out." He stated.
"Stop acting smart. Admitted it you don't know who it is either." Spat Maka.
Before they could continue arguing, a knife was land near Maka almost missing her.
"You two plan to flirt all day take it outside unless you want me to dissect you." Warn Stein with his sane face.
Both teen gulp and went quite.
As the class pass Maka noticed that Black Star left to go to the bathroom. Then a few minutes pass that Kid went. This raised the girl suspicion. Lucky for her the class ended.
Maka grab Soul and told him what to do.
She senses both of her friend's soul wave length inside a restroom.
"This is so uncool." Mutter Soul as he was push inside.
As he was going in a certain blue head went out.
"Oh, Hey Soul."
"Sup Black Star."
"Hey you know you like Maka right?"
"Yeah so?"
"I found out that she might like Kid. So you have a challenge." With that said he left the bathroom.
The scythe was thinking about that through out the whole day while Maka kept looking out the raven head boy.
"Maka.."
"Yeah?"
"Never mind."
Maka look at her weapon but shrug it off. Usually she'll sense his soul wavelength but right now she knew she was getting close to victory. She found the room where her two suspects were going to be.
"Soul listen up I've put a note on Black Star and Kid locker so they could meet up in that room. All you have to do is hide and recorded everything that they're going to do even if is nothing at all. Got it?" she explains giving him the camera.
"Yeah what if they find me?"
"Don't worry if they find you then come up with an excuse or say loudly that oh you found me really so I can save your ass." Said Maka cheerfully "Come on Soul, I know we're close in being right."
"You mean you being right." He said and mutters "so uncool."
He went to the room where Maka ordered him to go. He went inside and hid behind some boxes. Out of view he got out the camera and turns it on. While waiting he wonder if this was a good idea.
Before he could even had any chances to back out, Black Star cam into view.
"Kiddo?" he called out.
A few seconds later Kid came into the doorway.
"Black Star it better be good."
"I thought you want to see." Said the assassin confused.
"Really? Wait did you happen to think that it was someone messing with us?" ask the raven head.
"Now that you say it, Maka has been acting really strange lately." The tan boy pointed out.
"Yeah, it's really creepy having her stalking me." Kid said shivering.
Black Star chuckle and went behind the boy wrapping his arms around him. He start to kiss him on the head and hug him.
"I got a feeling Maka likes you."
"What makes you say that?" ask Kid looking at his lover.
Black Star shrugs "just saying… pity you already have me."
"Hm Maka isn't that bad looking." Kid said joking while Black Star let him go looking at him with disbelief.
"Your going to leave me to go with her?"
"Well she is symmetrical." Tease Kid although it was true.
"But..but.."
Kid chuckle and kiss his boyfriend.
"You're a baka." Said Kid.
Black Star eyes gleam and started to kiss the other boy passionately. Kid start to moan when Black Star deepen it.
In his hiding place Soul widens where wide like saucers and his mouth hung wide open. He couldn't believe his eyes. Maka for once was right although now that he remember something for long ago from the web chat. Now he didn't even know either to be disgust or feel happy for them. He knew one thing he didn't want to see any more. He tried to be as quietly while the other two were having making out session. Unfortunately luck wasn't in his side when something made a noise.
Both teen in front of him stop and look at his direction. Soul hid himself fast. He now knew how a prey felt when a predator was going to kill it.
Kid frown at where the noise came from.
"Maybe it was a mouse?" suggest his star.
He shook his head, and senses a familiar soul wave length.
"Soul come out." The yellowed eyed ordered.
Soul stood up with his hands up in the air.
"Soul?" exclaims his best friend surprise and turned red. "What…
"He was spying. I should have known that stupid girl will do this." Said Kid angrily.
"Ok fine, your right it was Maka who told me to record you guys. She's been stalking… I mean following him for some time now trying to figure out who Kid like. I thought she fail but I didn't believe she was right this time." Confessed Soul and gave the camera to Black Star.
"So what are you going to say to her now?" ask Kid quietly.
"Right now...Nothing, but why are you keeping it a secret?" ask the white head weapon.
"cause…"
Soul stood there and saw the shinigami feeling uncomfortable.
"Cause what?"
"When the time is right we'll say it. Until then we're keeping a secret although Tsubaki knows." Black Star said.
"and want other people might do to us" Kid said quietly almost a whisper.
Soul blink getting confused he understood his best friend but the little shinigami.
"point is, can you please not tell any one, please." Pled both of them mostly Kid.
Soul sighs and nodded "Yeah I owe you two for snooping although it was mostly command to. Since it'll be uncool for me to tell it anyways."
Both teen smile will the assassin smirk and both him and Soul high five each other.
"You're the best."
"Yeah yeah…now I got to make something up." Said the red eyed teen sighing then thought "Hey if am going to keep you two a secret can you help me on something."
"Depends what it is?"
"I'll tell you later."
"Ok."
Soul exited the room and bump into a certain meister. The girl look at him saying to spill out everything.
The white head weapon being a good friend lied "Nothing happen only that they piss off that you were tricking them. Yes they found and knew it; sense you keep forgetting that Kid can sense souls. No they laugh when you thought of them as couple saying you couldn't be a bigger moron. Also Black Star broke the camera."
"What all that hard work for nothing." Shriek Maka.
"Yup plus I don't have a secret lover anymore sense it broke up with me." Kid lied going up to them. Soul could have believed that if he hadn't witness what he did.
"So it was Crona?" ask the pony tail girl but the shinigami boy left.
"So it was."
Soul wanted to smack her head but knew if he did he'll get hit on the head. He wasn't in a mode for that. Then he remember their little deal. He felt sorry for her but not as sorrier to himself knowing tonight he won't be able to sleep.
"Maka?"
"What?"
"You have to do the work around the house for the whole month." Remind Soul running away sensing a 'Maka Chop'.
