Hello my peoples! I'm sorry that I'm taking a little longer to update. I just started high school last week and its so scary. I sit alone at lunch so that gives me some time to write. Thats all. Peace and love to you all.
Maka p.o.v.
I sit at the very top of the school and sit on the edge of the roof. I wonder what would happen if I fell. Would anyone miss me? Would anyone go to my funeral? Would class continue as if nothing happened? Would Soul... would all my friends... would they care? No, they won't. They all betrayed me. They probably all want me dead anyways. I look down at the strange black pills Medusa gave me. Whats the point of taking medicine if the pain in my heart is going to be endless. At my old school, everyone avoided me, picked on me, bullied me, pretended I didn't even exist! And its exactly the same here. I have no one and I never will. I'll probably be stuck living with my father forever.
Unless...Unless...Unless...
I place the pills next to me and stand up. I close my eyes and breath heavy as my toes hang off the edge. I put one foot forward and prepare myself for the fall.
"MAKA!" A voice yells. I turn and see Soul running towards me.
"What do you want? Did you want to be the one who pushes me?" I ask.
"What the fuck are you talking about!? And where did you get those pills?" He asks
"Medusa gave them to me. She also told me that YOU were the one who put together that entire prank and all of our friends were in on it too!" I yell.
"Medusa is a witch! Those "pills" are filled with black blood that can make you go insane and under her control."
"But she showed me a video of you-"
"I told you she is a witch, she probably used her powers to manipulate the video to make it seem I'm trying to hurt you. Maka, I'll never hurt you, ever. I'm going to make sure that you never feel betrayed ever again and always be with you. Maka, I love you"
"So all those things you said to me at the dance were true?" I ask as he walks towards me. He grabs my hands and pulls me away from the edge.
"Yes, everything was and still is true. Please believe me" He begs. Tears roll down my face as we both sit down together. We sit on our knees holding each others hands and sit closely together. I cry harder and Soul leans in and hugs me. I cry into his shoulder as he strokes my hair.
"I was going to jump." I sob "I can't believe I was gonna-"
"Shhh" Soul interrupts. "You're ok now, you're safe with me."
Soul and I don't move from that position for at least ten minutes. He continues to stroke my hair and tell me "Its ok, you're ok now. I'm here" as I sob into his shoulder.
After a few minutes he pulls away.
"We're going to go home now. When we do I want you to have a nice long shower and wash off the paint and then put on some comfy pajamas and you and I will watch a movie or two. Ok?"
I nod as I wipe my tears from my face. He and I stand up and he starts walking but I don't follow.
"Whats wrong?" He asks.
"Can you carry me?" I ask him. He smiles and walks towards me. He picks me up and holds me in a bridal carry position.
"Thank you" I say as he carries me down the elevator. We leave the school and head back to our place.
"Maka, Soul" Someone calls out. Soul turns and we see Black Star and Tsubaki walk our way.
"Where were you guys? The dance isn't over yet." Says Black Star before Tsubaki slaps his arm.
"Ow! What the he- oh, right. I forgot about the paint prank. Sorry Maka" He apologizes.
"Its ok, it wasn't your fault." I say, trying to hide the fact that I was crying.
"So, are you guys gonna come back?" Tsubaki asks.
"Nah, her and I are gonna head in for the night and get some rest" Soul answers.
"Ok, we'll see you guys on Monday" Says Black Star before heading back inside with Tsubaki.
We get back to our place and Soul sits me down at the kitchen table. He sits next to me and puts a hand on my shoulder.
"Are you going to be ok?" He asks.
"Yes. Thank you for stopping me from-"
"Lets not talk about that, ok? Lets try to get your mind off of it."
"Right. I'm gonna go shower now." I say. I stand up and walk into the bathroom. I close the door behind me and take off my once beautiful dress. Now it looks like a rainbow barfed on it. I turn on the tap to the shower and walk inside. I wipe the paint from my skin with a cloth and soap. So, Medusa is a witch. I never considered it. She always seems so nice and kind to the students, I guess it was all an act. And what even is black blood? Is it slang for drugs or is it actual blood? Weird.
...
I wrap a towel around my naked body and leave the bathroom. I head into my bedroom and shut the door behind me. I grab a pair of fuzzy pajama pants and tank top and slide them onto my body. I leave my room and see Soul sitting on the couch in front of our tv. He scrolls through the tv guide to see if there is any movies on tv. I sit next to him and wrap a blanket around the both of us.
"Found a good movie?" I ask.
"Just a disney movie so far"
"Ooh, which one?"
"Tarzan"
"Perfect" I say. He turns on the movie and we watch it. He wraps an arm around me and I snuggle up to him.
...
Soul p.o.v.
The movie finishes and I notice Maka has fallen asleep. I smile at her sleeping body. I pick her up and carry her to her bed. I place her under her blankets and kiss her forehead. She then opens her eyes slightly.
"Soul?" She whispers, reaching out her hand.
"Yeah?" I ask, grabbing her hand.
"Stay with me" She replies. I smile again as she moves to the side and gives me room on her bed. I get under the blankets with her and she turns so her back is to me and I wrap my arms around her waist.
"I love you" She says before falling asleep.
...
I wake up in the morning and see Maka is no longer next to me, but the Blair chick is.
"Morning Soul" She says. I fall out of the bed.
"What the hell are you doing here? And where the hell is Maka?" I ask her.
"What? You don't want me here?"
"Exactly! Where is Maka?"
"She went out to get food for breakfast. Now, where were we?" She seductively asks as she crawls on top of me. She then shoves her boobs in my face and I start flailing my arms and legs around, trying to get her off of me. My nose starts bleeding like crazy.
"Hey Soul, I got breakfast!" Maka cheers, opening the door to her room. She holds a frying pan in one hand and eggs in the other. Me and Blair stare at Maka.
"Hey Maka, do you have any fish for me?" Blair asks.
Maka continues to stare at us and I see anger grow stronger in her eyes.
"Blair. Get. The. Fuck. Out. NOW!" Maka growls raising her frying pan. Blair stands up.
"I'm not scared of you Maka" Blair says. Fire shoots from Maka's eyes in anger. She starts beating Blair with the frying pan and she yells in pain. Blair turns into a cat and jumps onto the ceiling fan.
"Get out!" Maka yells.
"No, you're daddy wanted me to stay with you. I promise I'll be a good kitty!"
"Promise to not try to rape Soul?" Maka asks
"I wasn't trying to...fine. I promise" Blair replies. Maka leaves her room and I follow.
"Was your nose bleeding?" She asks.
"N-no. My nose? Pfft. No, why would it- Ha. Not me" I reply trying not to sound awkward.
"Really? Because it really seemed like you were enjoying her" Maka says, sitting down.
"No, I wasn't-"
"Soul calm down. I'm just teasing you" She says smiling. I cross my arms and smile at her. She hands me the plate with eggs.
"Thanks" I say. She smiles and starts eating her food. I sit across from her at the table and eat the eggs she prepared.
"Any plans for today?" I ask her.
"Me and the girls are going to the mall today. Want to join?"
"Thats ok, I'm hanging with the guys today" I reply.
"Where are you guys gonna go?" She asks.
"Probably the movies"
"Thats cool"
I pick up the tv remote and turn on the tv and see that the news is on.
"Breaking news. The world famous "Demon Swordsman" Has escaped prison. Please be careful while walking around death city because the swordsman may be there. The gender and age of this person is currently unknown. Back to you John"
