Chapter 5

After dinner Soul fixed the table, washed the dishes and finally settled down on the couch. Maka was also sitting on it, she was reading a book. Soul felt a bit bad for her because it seemed that the fever even messed with her reading abilities. She would squint, then hold her head, then try again.

"you wanna watch a movie Maka?" asked Soul as he movied toward the box they kept all there movies. The cover was kind of dusty. They haven't been able to watch movies for awhile due to too much missions, and exams. He turned back to Maka, that was still trying to read her book. "...Maka?."

Maka looked up putting the book to her side and took a while to think. "uh, sure...what do you wanna watch?." Maka was feeling much better, her temperature was 99.8 but would chande from 100 back to 99. She shifted to a position were her legs were crossed.

Soul pulled out a couple of movies that he really wanted to watch, there were 5. "Alright Maka since I helped you all today, you have to choose from these movies that I wanna watch." Maka had never seen or heard of these movies, so she told Soul. Soul bursted out laughing "H-HOW HAVE YOU NEVER HEARD, O-OF TRANSFORMERS!?" Maka got mad and finally Maka choped him, that totally shut him up.

Soul rubbed his head and grinned "hey I was just joking...ow, ok were definitely watching this." He popped the DVD out and pushed it into the dvd player. He grabbed the remote and moved onto the couch. As he sat, Maka moved closer to him, but he didn't notice. Befor he knew it, his arm was around her shoulder and she was leaning on him.

It was only half way throught the video when Soul asked Maka, "hey is it a good movie, I haven't seen this movie in a while? Maka?." and finally looked down to see her sleeping. He didn't want to move her, and disturb her peaceful slumber. He reached for the remote, turned the movie off, and held her. In reaction Maka clung on to his shirt, moving her head toward his chest. Now in the darkness he grinned, then planted a kiss on the top of her head. "Goodnight...Maka."

The next morning Soul heared noises, but didn't care he was still in his slumber. He felt a shifting over his chest and still didn't care. Then finally those noises changed to laughing. Soul fluttered his eyes open to be greeted by Tsubaki, Black Star, Kid, Liz and Patty. "Good morning you two!" said Tsubaki as she giggled.

Black Star held a thumb up, and Kid just stared. Kid motioned with his eyes to look down, and Soul didn't understand. "what do you...mean by you two?" asked Soul as he streched his arm. As he did something moved on his body, and it was Maka. Soul blushed because Maka was sleeping, ontop of him and half her shirt was lifted up showing her stomach and back...she was sleeping with him just kept re-running in his mind. "oh, no guys...i-it's not what you think!..." and as he said that Maka made this cute noise that made him get a bit hot.

Maka yawned then opened her eyes, the first she saw was Soul whose face was all red. Then noticed that she was lying on him. She blushed heavily then looked from his chest to his face. The two jumped back then looked at there friends hoping to convince them that it wasn't what they thought it was.

"I told them to let you two be, but they wouldn't listen..." said Kid as his yellow/golden eyes shifted from them to Black Star and Tsubaki. Patty began to laugh and point at Soul's and Maka's faces. "and it's clearly shown that they were sleeping." said Kid as he pointed to there clothes...that were still on them.

Maka was getting mad at the accusation that Kid and them were making. "What are you guys even doing here. Isn't class going on." asked Maka as she made her way to the kitchen to make herself a glass of water, and grab the thermometer to check her temperature. Soul was still frozen on the couch, finally he stood and made his way to his room and then to the bathroom.

"Well, Dr. Stein said to go check if you were ok." said Tsubaki.

"So we knocked on you're door, but no answer. So I assumed you two were resting."said Kid

"But I thought something else, and wanted to break the door down!"said BlackStar with a big grin.

"And instead of nocking down the door, me and Patty just picked the lock, and presto we fin you two sleeping...on each other." said Liz with a smile, and Patty laughing still.

Maka nearly choked on her water at the story. They answered all her questions, but still...REALLY?. She pulled out the thermometer after she heard a beep. Her temperature was 98.9. "Dang, what kind of fever reducing pills were these that nurse Medusa gave me?" Maka thought. She looked at the clock and sighed. "no use going to school, if there's only 1 hour left."

Soul and Maka had slept till 12:00 pm. Soul walked out of the bathroom with a new set of clothes on, and a differnt headband. He high fived Black Star and walked toward the kitchen. "Anyone hungry, I made extra sandwiches from last night." asked Soul as he pulled out a soda can, popped the top and began to drink from it. They all were hungry, and besides it was luch time. During that lunch break Soul and Maka acted like what happened earlier, never happened.

Maka finished eating first and went to the bathroom to change. As soon as she did all eyes were on Soul. "so...what did you guys do last night" asked Tsubaki. After that Black star asked what they did AFTER thery dropped Soul off.

Soul smiled and gulped. That made Black Star excited. Kid still believed they did nothing, what fun can you have with a sick person. "After you guys left we...did nothing. We just ate dinner, Maka took her pills, and we watched a movie. But I guess we fell asleep before the end." soul kept a straight face while saying that. He had to keep that bath a secret.

Most of Soul's friends gave a dissapointed face, except Kid. "I told you nothing would happen. and beside she's sick...what fun could they have." said Kid as he started making all the cans and jars in the cabbinet symmetrical. "do you have another type of this jar?" asked Kid.

Soul raised a hand toward kid. "THANK YOU Kid!"said Soul as her turned to look at the jar in Kid's hand. "sorry kid, we don't.." When Soul said that Kid looked shocked. He slowly put the glass back in the cabbinet and slid to the floor.

"why...why can't my friends...be symmetrical like me..."said Kid as began to pound the floor.

Patty thought it was funny to bring up that he was never symmetrical in the first place. That just made everything worse.

The lock on the bathroom door started to make noises, and when it did the group grew silent, except kid. They didn't want to get maka chopped. Black Star told Soul that he would find ou what had really happened, because he was the greatest assassin that ever lived.
