Me- Hello!
Chrona- * Giggle*
Me- Uhm, I'm just going to start this chapter, because Chrona's freaking me out. 0_0
Chapter 3- Confessions and sleep.
Maka was sitting in the waiting room, clutching her book and twitching ever so slightly. She couldn't take it anymore. It had been almost 2 hours, but neither Chrona nor the Dentist had appeared out of the back yet. She stood, determined to demand to be let back to see her friend, whae the dentist came back with a satisfied grin on his face.
"How is she, doctor? Will Chrona be okay? Please tell me she'll be okay." Maka sniffled, frustrated tears welling in her eyes. How could this have happened to Chrona? She thought. She was always the innocent one in the group. It should have been her…
"Don't worry, she's alright." He said, patting her head. "She broke her a Canine and a couple of Molars, but other than that, no lasting damage. I gave her some Laughing Gas to fix the teeth, though, so it's best to take her home and let the gas wear off." He handed Maka a slip of paper. "This is a letter from me to Stein to get her out of class for a couple of days. Two to three days is recommended." He said in a clipped, professional tone.
"Thank you, doctor. Now, can we get Chrona back to the DWMA?" Maka asked, confused that Chrona wasn't following the dentist.
"Of course you can. Chrona! Could you please come out here?" The dentist called, causing Chrona to shuffle around the corner, staring at her feet.
"Chrona? Are you okay?" Maka asked the girl as she shuffled up to the blonde.
"Hehehe… never better Maka….. You smell nice…." Chrona giggled.
"Uuh, is she okay? She seems a little…. Weird." Maka said, shooting the dentist a confused look.
"Well, that's just the thing. Chrona got a LOT of the gas, and it MAY have some unpleasant side effects on her ability to keep secrets or to contain pent-up emotions. So I'd recommend keeping her away from people she's keeping secrets from, such as secret crushes or people you two gossip about." He said, cleaning his glasses on his shirt.
Maka quickly moved Chrona away from Soul, who had come in about half an hour before, having had not been there at the time of the accident, earning a suspicious look from the scythe. Maka blushed and looked away, pretending to stare at the paintings on the white walls.
Later, the gang split up outside the Dentist's. Maka and Soul had an assignment in Italy the next day, and had to get packing as soon as possible, and Black Star and Tsubaki had to go see lord Death about an upcoming opportunity to collect many Keshin Souls at once. That left Kid to walk back to the DWMA with Chrona, who was deemed unfit to walk herself home. Not that he minded that.
'Good Lord, she's attractive, even when that gas is messing with her emotions.' He thought, staring at Chrona. Chrona was oblivious to this; however, as she was watching birds fly overhead and giggling. 'I've never seen this part of her before. That gas must be very powerful to bring out Chrona's inner girl' he mused. Then, noticing that they had arrived at Shishubin, he took Chrona's hand, blushing as he did so, and walked her to the lower levels of the school. He stopped outside her door, and asked if Chrona was all right to get dressed by herself and get into bed.
"Don't worry, Kiddo, I'll be juusst fine" Chrona slurred, pushing open her door. "But, could you come tuck me in?" She asked, sticking her lower lip out into a pout. Kid walked inside, blushing a deep purple. After brushing her teeth, combing her hair, and putting on a nightgown, she laid down in her bed and motioned for Kid to come over. Kid leaned in, as if listing to a secret.
"Closer" Chrona said. Kid leaned in, his ear inches from Chrona's mouth. "Closseeerrrr…." She said, enticing Kid to turn his head. She quickly fastened her lips on to his, pulled back, and said, "I've always had a huge crush on you". Giggling, she curled up and went to sleep, leaving Kid to stumble out of the room, down the street, and wobble all the way to his house, wondering what to do now that Chrona had confessed her feelings.
Me- Well, that only took 10 minutes to type! I'm proud of this chapter! What do you think, Chrona?
Chrona- ZZZzzzzzz…..
Me- Oh, right. *Tiptoes out of the room*
Kid- PLEASE! Leave suggestions for my next move with Chrona! *Puppy Dog Eyes and Pout.* Make sure there are only 8, though…
