Soul POV:
Shes not ready to talk and I can tell. But we need to talk about this, if we don't it can spiral out of control and we may end up hating each other. Maybe I need to start the talk. I know at this point I want to be with her but I don't know how to tell her. I'm so stupid, forcing her into this. I saw her concentrating on her hands as she fiddled with her napkin.
"Maka, I have a different idea, let's watch a movie. Get our minds off of it. We don't have any plans today anyways. I'll clean up here, go change into something more comfortable." I stood up and walked to the kitchen sink taking my empty plate with me. She stood up, bringing her plate and dumping what was left in the trash before setting it the bubbly water. "Soul, I don't have any pajamas all my clothes are still in the wash... Can I borrow something again?" Her voice was flirty and nervous. I laughed,"Yeah, I have the plaid pants in the third drawer. And you can grab a shirt from the first drawer."
Her face lit up, but she quickly calmed herself before speaking in a soft voice," Thank you , Soul." She leaned over and kissed me cheek, which really caught me off guard. She took off but I caught her just before she opened my door. My hands grabbed her by the waist. "Pick a good movie too, they're on the shelf, alright?" She smiled before turning and entering my room. I returned to the kitchen sink, scrubbing off the reminisce of our breakfast.
She kissed me. It was only on the cheek but it caught me so off guard. Maybe we didn't need to talk about it after all. It's going just fine. I can't stop thinking though, about her voice. I've never heard her speak so softly, or so flirtatious. It gave me goosebumps.
I finished the last of the dishes, setting them on the counter to dry. I walked over to my room, and this time I made sure I knocked. She approved me to come in, declaring she was 'decent'. I opened the door and saw her standing there, smiling. She looked so beautiful wearing my clothes. They were baggy but she looked adorable. She walked over to my dresser grabbing the picture frame that held the first picture we took together, when we first became partners. Her voice got quiet,"I can't believe you still have this, it's been years." She looked at me almost like she was going to cry. "Well yeah I kept it, it's not cool to throw something with such value away," I paused,"plus, I get to see it everyday. It reminds me of why I'm here." I grabbed a random movie off the shelf and the blanket off my bed. "Come on, movie time."
Maka POV:
We walked out to the living room and I threw myself onto the couch. I can't believe I kissed him, even if it was on the cheek, it was risky. I mean he didn't deny it, and he flirted back. He grabbed me waist. That was stuck in my mind , his hands felt so strong holding me there. I had to restrain myself from kissing him again.
He slid the DVD into the player and hit play. He came to sit down when I realized I was right in the middle, leaving him little to no room to sit. I slid over to the side and he plopped down on the other side.
He looked at me, "Why so far away?" I was confused,"What are you talking about?" He chuckled , brushing his hair from his face. "You, stupid. You're all the way over there. Come over here, I don't bite." I felt the myself blushing as I slid over. He grabbed me by the waist again positioning me so that I was leaning against him, "well, not most of the time." I flung my head around and he laughed, throwing his head back,"I'm kidding, I'm not going to bite you". I smiled the evilest smile I could, "Damn, thought I might get lucky." I must admit, the look on his face was priceless. I turned around and snuggled myself into his side before he threw the blanket over us both.
He put his arm around me, resting it on my stomach. In turn I rested my hand on top of his. He wiggled his fingers into place between mine, I could feel his hand shaking, or maybe it was mine. I was so nervous, yet I was so happy. I tilted my head up to see him already looking down at me, his cheeks redder than ever before. "What do you want?" he said jokingly, with an evil little grin. "What movie did you choose Guy?" "Some action movie where giant things attack the earth and the humans fight back using giant robots." I smiled, "sounds cool." He looked at me smirking,"well yeah, I'm Guy , so all my movies are cool."
About forty minutes had passed and we were at that part where the guy gets the girl, she almost literally jumps into his arms as they kiss. But of course something goes wrong and they get separated until the end. The movie was coming to an end and the couple had reunited and it was a cheesy love scene. I could feel my heart race as I thought of it being Soul and I one day. Then Soul shook me, causing me to look up at him. He was referring to the make out session occurring on the screen before looking down at me. "Hey Maka, can we?"
