Soul never though for a second in his life that he was going to wait so eagerly for a doctors appointment. It has been 3 days since his patching up with Maka and his life damaging dream, and he was at a loss what to do. He couldn't very well push Maka away from him again, she wouldn't forgive him the second time around. He couldn't tell her he was invading her dreams and thinking of her in such a low and animalistic way, while harming her physically. And he couldn't very well be sure that the long deep gash at Maka's leg was not the demon's fault. Soul was at a complete loss what to do.
His first decision was to keep things going with Maka at a slow pace. That way he could get used to this, and maybe learn how to control the demon. His second decision was to try and find out as much as he can about Chrona and her, or was it his, Black blood. Not long ago, when Chrona used the black blood to attack, his scar hurt. He went into madness while touching one of her black blood spheres. There was a rooted connection between her and him, and perhaps the kishin as well. He knew that if he wanted to rid himself of the black blood he would have to dig deeper. He would have to find something about Meduza, or just to find Meduza herself.
With these decisions in mind soul practiced with his technician all day, while Spirit watched over them, serving as their new guide, now that he was a death scythe.
Maka was sick of her dad. It was one thing that he was over protective, but she never knew he was such a perfectionist. He ordered them all day long, practicing her flying with her Grigori wings and attacks. Soul performed wonderfully to Spirits annoyance, and Maka had to work hard to keep up with him. She was still unstable at this Grigori state, but soul eased her into it. Maka was also as stubborn as a mule, yearning for perfection and by the time lunch came soul was famished.
"Ok, that's enough of that for today" Spirit yelled at the couple in the air. Soul sighed, finally some food.
"And start resonating with each other proparly"
They floated gently over the ground and landed gracefully.
"What? But Papa, we did plenty of that last year. We can easily resonate now". Maka stated, obviously offended by the order to practice such a simple task at her level.
"It's not the same as before Maka, dear. Since Soul became a death scythe his wave length is bigger. Not so that you cant handle it, but its good that you practice at controlling yours instead of him lowering his wave length to mach yours".
Maka gave Soul a surprised look. "What? Did you lower your wave length to make it easier on me?"
Soul transformed from his scythe form back to human "you didn't notice?"
At that Maka's eye brows frowned and she pulled Soul into the middle of the clearing they were working at.
"Change!" she ordered.
"Ask nicely…. Jeez" Soul muttered and transformed back to his sharper form, landing gently in her hands.
"And don't lower anything! I can do it on my own" she said.
As they started to resonate a ball of blue energy could be seen. Much greater than before, Maka sweated as she tried helplessly to match him. For the first 5 times she failed, causing small explosions as she did so. At the six time she almost succeeded, and at the seventh she did. As they resonated soul glow bright blue, his wings growing twice their size. Maka stood there, afraid that if she moved she would loose concentration. All she thought about was Soul, his scythe form, his personality, his body. His physic suddenly plagued her mind. She couldn't help but think about their kiss, about his warm hands, about his body, kissing it, touching it, letting him in her…
And with that a bigger explosion erupted, sending both pounding into the ground.
"What the hell was that?" Spirit ran to his daughter in fright. "What did you do Soul?" he screamed at him.
Soul collected himself from the floor and dusted off the sand from his cloths. He was blushing, his face almost the color of his crimson eyes. "It wasn't me…"
At that Spirit gave a questioning look to his daughter. Maka got up, quit upset and walked away toward shibusen.
"Come on Soul, let's get launch" she said, not looking back.
.
"Don't blame yourself, Maka, we'll work on it and we'll be in synch in no time" soul said in a matter of fact way.
"I wasn't!" she stormed off and sat at the first table that was vacant.
"Well good" he sat next to her, un phased by her behavior.
"Did….Did you see what I thought about?" she asked nervously.
"Yep" he answered. His eyes fixed on his sandwich, apparently this did not embarrass him one bit. Trying to stay cool as always.
Maka banged her head against the table. "I'm going home!" she got up, but Soul grabbed her wrist and sat her down again.
"Its no big deal, I thought about it too. Way more than a few times. It's cool"
"It's not cool when I think about it during resonance!" she yelled at herself.
"It was the one time, and we will resonate for years to come, don't make a big deal out of this" his hand was still holding hers.
She asked again, her cheeks red with fury and shame "How much did you see?"
"Maka, why do you ask? You know very well its like I'm inside your head and you're in mine. I saw it all, naturally".
"I want to die!" she cried into her meal.
Soul decided not to answer and let her deal with her shame. But he couldn't help but be happy and giddy inside for knowing, that the thought of sex with him has crossed her mind, and that she too was feeling a need to touch and feel him. He was not alone in his sexual frustration.
.
When they got home Soul made Maka a hot glass of tea and sat on the sofa next to her.
"Thanks" she said as she took the hot glass from his hand "Soul, I'm sorry I can't get used to your new form quickly".
"What are you talking about? Stop saying stupid stuff like that" and with that he leaned in and kissed her. It was a nice, soothing kiss and she melted into him. They sat there, kissing for a while. She pushed her tongue and he gladly complied to her, exploring her mouth with his. She had a sweet taste of tea and lemon. Her hands reached for his hair, caressing his white messy locks.
The small soft kiss soon turned into a make out session. It was not long before they found themselves on the couch, Soul on top of Maka's small frame. Their kisses were heavy; they could hardly breath, not wanting to break apart. Their hands roamed each other's bodies. Still rather shy about the whole thing, neither dared to move any piece of clothing too much out of place. Soul's hands were fixed on her waist, touching the soft silky skin where the shirt moved up a bit. He didn't dare lift it more. Her hands were contempt at feeling his abs and shoulders through his thin shirt. He broke the kiss only to plant wet and hot kisses on her neck. Evidently, a very sensitive area, as Maka moaned in a hushed voice her satisfaction. Just like last time, something inside of soul broke. He could hear his demon giggle again.
"She's ours! She's ours! Now take her, claim her! Cut her to pieces!" he sang.
Soul's anger grew "I will do what I want at my own pace! Now get the fuck away before I cut YOU to pieces!" his inner thoughts roared. And with that the little imp was quit.
Soul, now feeling much better about himself, moved Maka a bit and his hands moved to her legs. He gently caressed the skin, moving his hand up and down. While doing so he was already in-between her legs. Maka's mind could not think, she could not breathe. Her face was hot, her hands were slightly sweaty, as Soul, quit a big man now, laid above her. His hands now moved to her legs, sending shivers up her spine as he was far too close now, positioned near her warmest spot. His hands started their way up, past her non-defiant skirt. He cupped her butt cheek, enjoying the feel and as he did so one finger slipped under her panty's back. Now her own hand was traveling down, only to lift his mischievous hand up and away from her lower parts. Soul broke the kiss.
"Sorry, I…" he started to say, but before he could finish Maka started kissing him again.
"It's ok. We don't need to stop. Just… don't go that way yet"
She said.
Maka pressed herself more closely to him, holding onto his neck, when she suddenly felt his member press against her. She didn't know what to do, so she just did the same. Kissing and touching. She decided she was going to ignore 'that' for now. She wasn't planning on going that far yet. She didn't have to acknowledge the fact that is was there at all. She was aroused just as much; it's just that her emotions weren't being translated into such a vivid, visible and feel-able organ. And so, the young couple lay they together, making out for almost an hour until a familiar voice came from the television. They stopped their previous actions and snuggled together to watch soul's jazz show.
.
The next day was again focused about their new and hard to accomplish Soul-Resonating. Maka tried and succeeded more than a few times, but she kept complaining that soul's new wave length was too wide and range. Spirit couldn't help but agree with her. Soul was no ordinary scythe and he seemed to be far too powerful for a brand new death-scythe. He couldn't help but worry about them both.
"Do you want to take a brake Maka?" soul's face said through the scythe.
"I'm fine. Let's do it one more time, ok?" she asked. Maka felt determent to succeed; she would not easily let this go.
As they both stood there, the blue bubble around them emerged. Maka focused all her thought about soul when a certain memory invaded her mind. It was of last night and soul's hand on her thighs. This time no explosions accrued, but soul could feel and see it all.
"Don't get embarrassed maka. Its ok" he reassured her. "Don't break it"
"I'm not…really"
"I know you are" he giggled in their head "I can feel you, remember?"
"Y…you said that you thought about that too, can I see it?" she asked in their mind, but she wasn't really asking. She invaded his black room and his mind before he had a chance to think about it.
The moment she was let in she was bombarded. Images of her and soul were all around her, her own voice echoed in her mind. But she wasn't moaning, her voice was screaming! And all the scenes of her and soul were brutal, with blood all around. She felt Soul's huge form towering above her, holding her and slashing her frail body.
It took soul just 3 seconds to get what she did and break the resonance. But those 3 seconds were more then enough. He saw all she saw, and felt it all. Why the fuck did the imp decide to wake up now? Soul was raged and scared.
As the resonance broke Maka stood there, frozen in cold sweat. The moment soul went back to his human form, Maka looked at him terrified, ran to the side and through up.
This was not good.
The day went by quickly. Maka claimed it was the sandwich she had for lunch that made her throw up and went home, not looking at anybody or anything. She refused his offer to take her home.
.
When Soul came back later to their apartment he saw her asleep on the couch. He leaned over her to cover her in a blanket when she awoke screaming.
"What? I was only covering you!" Soul held the blanket in his hands.
"I'm sorry… bad dream" she sat up and got a bit farther from him. She didn't look him in the eyes.
"Oh for fuckes sake Maka, those were not my thought! Why are afraid of me?"
"I'm not! And whose thoughts were they? I saw it all… I always knew you were some kind of a sadist, but this… what the fuck Soul?"
"For a bright girl you sure are stupid Maka. Do I have one mind? You've been in my head plenty of times to know who's sharing the rent with me!" he yelled at her.
A silence took over the room for a few seconds.
"That red thing?" Maka's look went blank.
Soul just cursed under his breath.
"Why is HE thinking about ME?"
"I don't know"
"And why is he thinking *that*? Does he hate me that much?"
"Why do you think I ignored you for 3 months? He was pushing himself! I didn't know what to do, I got fucking scared." He admitted.
"So what's different now?" Maka asked. This whole thing was getting weirder by the minute.
"Nothing really. But I talked to Nygus and she told me he couldn't act without me cooperating."
"Oh…" so that what she wanted from him.
And so they sat there. Their throats were dry from yelling and they had no idea what to say to each other now.
After a few minutes soul got up, went to his room and tried to fall asleep. He had little success. Maka stayed awake until morning rose. She had no idea where would this thing lead. She had to talk to Nygus herself and think of someway to fix this. She was not letting this break her relationship with soul, especially now since they finally made it as a legitimate couple. She is not going to let this break. Never.
