TSUBAKI'S POV:

I finally caught up to Black*Star and Kid at the place Black*Star and I shared. I charged in through the window that Black*Star always left a crack open in case he locked himself out.

"Black*Star!" I screeched running to Black*Star, Kid, and the now awake Soul, "What happened back there? And don't you DARE fucking lie to me!" I almost never curse, but I was feeling a bit annoyed, and I still felt like I would burst out crying at any given time. Plus, I knew Black*Star was scared when I cursed. He jumped up, slightly scared look in his eyes, and took my hand, dragging me his room. He closed the door and hugged me. Wait, what?

"Tsubaki I'm so sorry!" He hugged me tightly and looked at me with tears forming slightly in his eyes.

I smiled, "I thought God's didn't cry?" I kissed his cheek and he smiled, "But you have to tell me why you kissed Patty," I was firm now.

He sighed, spilling out the entire story, "Ox said for us to play this game, where we drew names and kissed the girl's we drew. I was praying to get you, but I got Patty! I'm so sorry! You're god is sorry!" When I rolled my eyes he snapped back to his side that only I know, "Tsubaki, I love you, you know that. If anyone can beat a god, it's you Tsubaki," he looked down blushing gently, "I love you," He looked back up and continued explaining, "Anyway; I think Ox planned on all of this! I realized I made you cry and it was really his fault, so I went to hit him with my soul wavelength… Like a truly awesome friend, Soul jumped in front of me, because honestly," his voice quieted into a whisper, "I think Soul really loves Maka, and knows that she would be pissed if he let me hurt her boyfriend… so…"

"So, he got knocked out for trying to keep Maka happy?" I whispered back. Black*Star nodded. This, changed everything.

"You can't tell anyone of why I think Soul did it though! He'd cut me into bits!" Black*Star panicked.

I smiled, "I won't," I leaned to him and kissed him gently, we stayed there for a minutes or so, just enjoying each other, before walking out to Kid and Soul.


SOUL'S POV:

I can't believe what happened. I stopped Black*Star from hurting Ox only to hurt myself. Uncool. Maka was worth it though, I can't believe I just left her there crying. Ox didn't even care that he hurt her. Even more uncool. Hurting girls on accident was bad enough. I will get him somehow for this. I would be staying with Black*Star tonight just for a break. Tomorrow morning, I would wake up early and confront Ox. I could take that little ass… right? Right! If I couldn't, then I'm not good enough for Maka… I'll admit that I have been in love with that girl for a long time now… But I would never tell her that… Ox is just a low life! He wasn't good enough for her. Maka was beautiful and perfect. Every boy knew it! Even Kid said she was perfectly symmetrical! I flinched. I was even mad that my best friends noticed her beauty. I would normally wait for her to realize her "boy" was a jerk before hitting on her… but I didn't trust him. I growled. If he hurts her he will pay. Besides, as soon as she's free, she will be surrounded by boys… I snarled. If that Ox lays a hand on MY Maka


MAKA'S POV:

(THE NEXT MORNING)

I grabbed a coat and stepped out. I walked out of our apartment building into the cold air, winter was inching its way to us. I shivered slightly as I slipped on my coat. I was going to get my answers before today was over. Black*Star's house was already in sight. I soon reached the house and knocked on the door. Tsubaki answered.

"Hi Tsubaki, is Soul here? He didn't come home last night…" I pulled a worried look, if he wasn't here…

"I'm sorry Maka," Tsubaki frowned and I immediately began to panic, "He went to O- I mean… he went to Kid's…" she lied and I knew it.

"Did he go to Ox's" I asked, skeptical.

"No…" She nodded, sending me the clue I needed.

"Thanks Tsubaki," I hugged her and ran off the Ox's house. My plan was to make it seem as if I was going to visit Ox. That plan changed.

As soon as I arrived at Ox's house, Soul was walking up the steps. I ran to the window in front and hid in a bush, glancing in the window I felt a burning tear slice down my cheek. There was Ox. And Kim. Making out on his couch. His hand up her shirt. Soul knocked on the door and Ox jumped up, leaving Kim grinning, he answered the door.

"Ye- What do you want?" Ox growled.

"You. You hurt Maka. Apologize. Tell her the truth." I saw him sneak a glance in the house, his eyes narrowed, "Is that Kim?"

Ox smirked, "Nah, I already told her a sufficient lie. And yes, it is. She is my actual girlfriend. Maka is really just my toy," Another tear singed down my cheek. That ass. Suddenly Soul's eyes burned with fury, and he grabbed Ox's collar and threw him into the yard.

"YOU FUCKING ASSWHOLE! YOU WILL REGRET THAT!" His arm turned into a scythe, "HOW DARE YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT HURTING MAKA!" He was pissed. He charged at the scared meister. Dammit. I still felt for Ox.

I jumped out of the bush and ran to grab Soul's shoulder, "Soul. Stop." There go more tear burning down my face "He's not worth it."

Soul and Ox stared at me in disbelief as Soul noticed the tears his arm changed back and his face got worried. Ox looked pissed now.


SOUL'S POV:

I hugged Maka, "I'm sorry," I backed up.

Maka shook her head before Ox stood and punched me straight in the gut, "YOU ASS!" he screamed.

I remember him going to Maka and pushing her to the floor, I tried to stand, but I couldn't. DAMMIT! She just stood up again, dusting herself off, crying gently, dammit Maka don't cry, I thought.

"Ox, I trusted you and now that I know… w-we're though…" She mumbled.

"Ok. However, I'm taking what I wanted," He grabbed her by the waist and pushed her down, sitting on her and ripping off her skirt.

She screamed, my anger brought me strength, I saw what he was doing and my blood boiled. I ran to him and punched him off of her, leaving him unconscious. Maka was shaking when I went to her.

"Are you ok?" I took my jacket off and wrapped it around her waist, covering her.

She shook her head, crying even more and shaking, "It'll be okay, let's get you home," I picked her up bridal style and carried her to my bike. I sat on it, sitting her on my lap. Bad day to forget her helmet, I though as I put my helmet on her head. Starting my motorcycle and driving away, leaving behind the unconscious Ox Ford. Half way home I noticed my shirt was wet, glancing down, I found Maka, crying into her shirt.
