Chapter 2: Interesting

Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater

Enjoy.

The group of Weapons and Meisters sat near each other sharing stories, while snacking on Maka's baked goods.

"Hey Sis remember that one time when you accidentally moved the table in the dining room, 2 inc—" Before Patty could finish her sentence, a pair of soft hands wrapped around her sister's mouth, clamping them shut.

"Heh, Lets keep that between us okay, Patty?" Liz chuckled nervously, as she turned to look over at kid. If he found out he would have exploded. But when she looked back, Kid was sitting over next to Soul, not pay attention to the group's conversation.

"Thank god." She sighed

"…" Soul sat there silent, nervous, heart racing with sweaty palms.

"Damn it, Kid." He thought, blushing. The young Shinigami turned to Soul, smiling.

"Soul, did you ever get your bike fixed?" Asked Kid, trying to start off the conversation.

"Oh it's working just fine…" Soul smiled, nervously running his fingers through his hair.

"Soul…Is everything okay, you're …pink." He mentioned, pointing at Soul brightly lit face.

"Heh! Oh it's just kinda hot in here! I'm hot! Are you Hot? I'm hot! PHEW~!" He leaped up, fanning himself with his hand; his heart was doing jumping jacks.

"…uh." Kid sat there looking at the nervous scythe, flinching around fanning himself.

"Oh be right back!" Soul dashed for his room.

Slam!

There he stood, leaning on the back of the door, with his hand over his heart.

B-Bmp! B-Bmp!

His heart thumped. He slid down to the floor and sat there quietly.

"A cool guy like me shouldn't be nervous..." He chuckled. Soul smiled picking himself up.

"Okay. Be cool. Be cool" He chanted to himself, reaching for the doorknob.

Hopefully he wouldn't go out there and make a fool out of himself again.

When he opened the door, there stood Black*Star.

"Hey Soul what's up?" He asked

"Oh hey Black*Star. Nothing I just needed to…um...do something." He lied horribly.

"Something?" Black*Star's eyebrow rose as he looked at the young scythe.

"Yeah..Something." Soul stuffed his hands and relaxed his shoulders; trying to relax, like the cool guy he is. In his pocket and withdrew from his room, leaving Black*Star behind.

The Star grinned as he walked after him.

"Okay, girls lets get home" Kid stood.

"Alright" the twin pistols stood.

"Yeah us too Black*Star" His meister smiled.

Tsubaki began heading out of the door first then followed by the Twins and then Black*Star.

"We'll walk you down" chimed the scythe meister and she quickly tossed on her boots. "Yeah…" Nodded Soul.

Maka exited the apartment after the group, leaving Soul and Kid.

The weapon looked over his shoulder.

"Kid…."

"Soul."

"Did you enjoy the party?" Asked Soul.

"I would have enjoyed it more, if I had more time to talk to you…" Sighed Kid.

"T-talk?"

"Yes. But it was nothing important." Kid shrugged, heading towards the door, opening it but he stopped.

Soul Held onto Kid's shoulder.

"I'm really sorry about tonight. It won't happen again." He blushed.

"..Right" Kid looked back, smiling at the white haired teen.

"I think they're waiting on us." He said, exiting the apartment.

The two teen boys, reached the bottom of the steps.

"Hurry up Kid!" Liz yelled, walking along beside Patty, halfway down the street. "If I miss my show tonight I'm going to move something in the house by an inch!" She threatened young Death.

"I think you better hurry up." Soul snickered.

"Liz!" Kid charged after the girls.

"Thank you for having us over Maka!" Tsubaki chimed cheerfully.

"Anytime!"

"Soul." Black*Star turned to his best friend.

"Heh. See Ya Black*Star" He smirked, sharing their special high-five. The two boys shared a laughed before him and his meister, headed down the street also.

"Soul..?"

"Yeah? What is it Maka?" The scythe, turned to his meister, eyebrow raised.

"..Um it's not really any of my business. But do you have a crush on someone?" She blurted out.

"HUH?" The white haired teen almost jumped out of his skin, from being as such a question

"Is it …Kid?" She smiled.

Soul almost died right there on the street.

"…" He didn't answer the question. "Is there any more pie?" He asked, trying to bring up another subject, something along the lines of not this!

"No Black*Star ate all of it…But that's not really answering my question."

"…Yes." He gave in.

He didn't want Maka to know, so this was really hard to deal with. He didn't want anyone to know actually. But If he did have to tell someone first, he guessed it would be okay for Maka to know. He dropped his head and began heading for the stairs. "Yeah Maka. I Like Kid. "

"That's why you were acting like that during the party, huh? Well when do you plan on telling him?" she asked following her partner back to the small 2 bed roomed apartment.

"I don't know… I don't think I'm ever going to tell him. If he rejects me, it's going to be hard to continue having this friendship with him.

"But you'll never know unless you say something!"

"No Maka! …and don't you say anything to him, you got that?" He yelled, running into the apartment and heading straight to his room.

SLAM!

Maka leaped a bit at the loud noise.

"Jeez. I was just trying to help." She frowned, locking the front door. After finally cleaning up the place, Maka closed the curtains, turned off the lights and heading into her room to get ready for bed.

"Hmm. Well he said don't say anything to kid…but he never said anything about Liz and Patty" A plan formulated in the girl's mind. "I'll just casually ask Liz if she thinks there's someone Kid likes. That's all and nothing else" she smiled as she walked pass Soul's room.
