Me: Okay! Here is chapter 9! :D
Maka: Sarah does not own us!
Soul: Or the song I sing...
Maka: SONG?!
Me: SARAH CHOP! *book slams into Soul's head* I WILL TELL THEM THAT AT THE END NOW SHUSH UP AND READ.
Soul: *unconcious*
SOUL'S POV:
I sighed and walked back to the now wide eyed Maka. This would change my plan a bit. I had planned to spend tomorrow out in the snow and just get her mind off Ox completely before admitting to her. Well, now I would have to change that.
"Are we going to be okay?" Maka asked, dammit. That Ox really did wreck her courage. I can her the fear in her voice just because of snow.
"Maka, it's just snow. I have all the food in here. We'll be fine," I sighed.
"Okay!" She smiled, she was trusting me, but i knew she was worried.
"Let's go to sleep for the night, it's ten," I held a hand to her.
"Right," She smiled, taking my hand and getting up, them running to the bedroom, and then running into the bathroom with clothes.
I smirked and walked into the bedroom, pulling my sweat pants and sweater off, only to pull on a tank top and shorts. Maka stepped in, wearing her normal pajamas.I smiled at her a she slipped into the bed. I slipped in next to her. I could see the blush on her face and I gave her my signature smirk in reply.
"Night Maka," I smiled cooly and closed my eyes.
"N-Night Soul," I could feel her blush darken and i smirked again, only to find her shiver and curl up next to me. I instinctively put my arm around her and pulled her to my chest. I swear her face was redder than Spirit's hair by now. Smirking again, I fell asleep.
THE NEXT MORNING-SOUL'S POV:
I woke up to find Maka still sleeping, I silently slipped out of the bed and walked from the bedroom with my suitcase. I had dreamed up an idea and I knew what to do. I set the suitcase in the bathroom. I walked back to the frontroom, starting a fire. I went to th kitchen and put on eggs. bacon, and toast. Simple enough. Then I went back to the frontroom, uncovering my old piano. I dusted it off and smiled at it slightly. I hadn't played it in so long.
"Soul?" Maka yawned, rubbing her eyes.
"Morning Maka, hungry?" I smiled and walked to the kitchen, setting out the food.
"Uh, yeah..." She raised an eyebrow at me.
"You okay?" I asked sitting down at the table and digging in.
"Yes, but are you? You're being so nice recently..." She said as she sat and ate.
"I'm fine, I'm just being a cool weapon," I smiled up at her to find her smiling at me the same way she did when she asked Crona to be her friend. Yes!
"Okay then," She replied, still smiling that adorable way. When we had both finished I stood.
"Stay there and close your eyes! Don't open them until I say so," I smiled at her.
"Wh-" She began to ask.
"Just do it okay!" I smiled.
"Okay..." SHe sighed and closed her eyes.
I ran to the bathroom and pulled out my pinstripe suit that I wore the day we met. Then I ran back out and sat at my piano.
"Open," I said and then I began to play my piano. (Soul singing=bold)
All I ever wanted
Was to see you smiling
I know that I love you
Oh baby why don't you see?
Maka stood quietly and walked over to me. I smiled at her gently.
All I ever wanted
Was to see you smiling
All I ever wanted
Was to make you mine
I know that I love you
Oh baby why don't you see
That all I ever wanted
Was you and me
All I ever wanted
Was to see you smiling
All I ever wanted
Was to make you mine
I know that I love you
Oh baby why don't you see
That all I ever wanted
Was you and me
She began to blush and looked down. I smiled as I sang to her. I put all of my emotion into the song, including my playing as now it was no singing. For the next line I frowned gently.
I'm so alone
Here on my own
And I'm waiting for you to come
I want to be a part of you
Think of all the things we could do
And every day
You're in my head
I want to have you in my bed
You are the one
You're in my eyes
All I ever wanted in my life
I began to smile again. Her face was redder than I knew possible when I sang "I want to have you in my bed". I smirked at her gently, I will admit it to anyone, I love her.
All I ever wanted
Was to see you smiling
All I ever wanted
Was to make you mine
I know that I love you
Oh baby why don't you see
That all I ever wanted
Was you and me
All I ever wanted
Was to see you smiling
All I ever wanted
Was to make you mine
I know that I love you
Oh baby why don't you see
That all I ever wanted
Was you and me
She continued to blush at my song. So far, this was going very well.
All I ever wanted
Was to see you smiling
All I ever wanted
Was to make you mine
I know that I love you
Oh baby why don't you see
That all I ever wanted
Was you and me
All I ever wanted
I finished the song and and bowed gently to her.
"S-So?" I asked quietly.
"W-Was... Was that..." She blushed even more, I swear I didnt know that shade of red existed!
"Yeah, it was for you... It was all true to... Uhm... So..." Dammit, this was uncool, "Will you be my girlfriend?"
She froze. Dammit, she wasn't ready. I sighed.
"It's okay, you don't have to, just keep smiling, ok?" I kissed her forehead and started to walk away. Suddenly I felt a familiar hand wrap around my wrist.
MAKA'S POV:
I grabbed his wrist and stood, head down, bangs covering my face. He turned around to face me. I could feel his blood red eyes bore into me, I loved that feeling. He was wearing what he wore when we met, and it was only making me want to tackle him more.
"Y-Yes..." I stuttered, unable to look at him.
"Wait, what?" Soul's eyes lit up and he smiled.
"I'll be your girlfriend," I grinned and looked up at him, I blushed at his smile.
"Really?!" His eyes lit up like a star and I nodded. Before I knew what was happening I felt a pair of warm lips against mine. I melted instantly and put my arms around his neck. This was different from when Ox and I kissed. It was full of love, not lust. His arms went around my waist. My soul fluttered inside of me, when Ox and I kissed it was just our bodies kissing. I don't know how to explain it, but with Soul, it felt like our soul's were connecting as well. I pulled off and rested my head between his neck and shoulder. I felt him nuzzle into my hair.
"Maka?" Soul whispered into my ear.
"Hm?" I replied, still smiling brightly into him.
"I love you..." He mumbled. I had heard that before, but it was from Ox and I didn't say it back, but this was different. This was Soul.
"I love you too, Soul," I replied, the words felt so natural when they where directed at him.
"Good," I could feel his soul lighting up with joy.
"Hey, how about we make a fort?" I smiled up at him.
"Alright!" Soul grinned and ran to some closet, pulling out a bunch of firm pillows.
We laughed as we made the pillow fort. AFter an hour we were in the fort smiling at our work. I layed down, putting my head in his lap and smiling uo at him. He gently brushed my hair from my face. I have never been more happy in my life.
OX'S POV:
I walked around Death City boredly, thinking. Where are you Maka? I growled to myself. Suddenly I heard an all to familiar voice.
"HOW DARE THEY LEAVE THE GREAT BLACK*STAR BEHIND!" Black*Star's voice rang through the street, I walked closer but kept hidden.
"Black*Star, they went to Soul's old family cabin to get away, not for us to come," Tsubaki tried to calm him.
"Fine! But the great Black*Star will kill Soul if he hasn't made a move by the time they are back!" Black*Star said, quieter but still yelling.
"Black*Star, promise me that you will not go follow them," Tsubaki said.
"Okay Tsubaki, I promise on my goddliness I will not follow them into the mountains!" Black*Star said.
"Good, now shut up, Maka wants to stay away from him, so we need to stop discussing this here," Tsubaki grabbed his arm and they ran off.
I smirked to myself as I came out of the shadows. Thanks for telling me where the cabin is Black*Star.
Me: SO? How was chapter nine? Chapter ten might get up tonigt, but more likely tomorrow! :D
Maka: *blush!*
Soul: Cool. She doens't Own the song!
Me: Right! The sing was All I Ever Wanted by Basshunter! I don't own it!
XxPikachu13xX: He should go die, shouldn't he? But no, I have a plan for him :)
Booklover2526: Yes, Yes you can! :D I like him in the anime, but I didn't want to make Black*Star or Kid an ass so, I chose Ox!
