Chapter 3: Cool

Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater

Enjoy.

"Hey Soul..." Maka lightly knocked on Soul's onyx colored door.

"Yeah?" He called back from the other side

"I'm going to the store to grab some food for tonight's dinner, is there anything you want me to pick up for you?" She asked.

"No" He replied.

"Okay then, I'll see you later." Maka smirked to herself; turning away from the door heading towards the front.

Soul sighed to himself. He laid there on his back staring at the ceiling fan spinning and spinning.

"Now what? Maka is gone….. I'm by myself and bored…." Soul grunted as he sat up.

"I wonder what Black*Star is up to?" Soul thought as he stood up. He walked over to his closet, where he pulled out his favorite Red hoodie. He threw that over his head and fixed it to fit the shape of his body.

It's been his favorite ever since Kid commented on how much he liked it himself. He then began to slip his feet into his black and red converses. He turned to the mirror and quickly ran his fingers through his spikey white hair.

There everything was perfect. He brushed off his blue jeans and laced up his shoes and then headed out of his bedroom door.

Before exiting the apartment, he grabbed his cell and keys from the small coffee table.

KNOCK. KNOCK. KNOCK.

Soul looked up at the door and gave a small smile.

"That silly girl probably forgot her cell phone or something" He reached for the door knob.

…..

"Hey Soul."

Golden shinigami eyes met the white haired boy's crimson ones.

"….Kid?"

Soul's heart began racing. "What the hell? What the hell! Why is he here…..wait play cool….play cool" Soul thought to himself. "H-Hey-"Soul stopped mid-sentence because of his cracking voice. He quickly looked down and began to shake.

"Uh Soul?" Kid grabbed onto his shoulders

"Get a hold on yourself, Soul!" Soul thought to himself. "S-sorry Kid. You just caught me off guard! I thought it was Maka" Soul finally took control of his wobbly body. "You thought I was Maka? Wait she's not here?" Kid asked. "Is that why you came here?" Soul asked

Kid released Soul's shoulders. "Yes. I received this text message from her this morning" Kid held up his cellphone screen to Soul's face, showing him the message.

"Hey Kid! If ur not busy could u please stop by today? Thx!" Read the text message.

"…..I made a mistake of telling her..." Soul cursed himself.

"Well I don't why she wanted me to come over" Kid closed the phone and slipped it into his back pocket. "But I guess it was a total waste …I get to talk to you." Kid smiled.

"….." Soul quickly turned, blushing.

"Soul?"

Soul turned back to him with a cool smirk.

"Yeah. Cool."

"It looks like you were about to head out yourself…"

"Oh yeah I was. Just before you came. I was just gonna go chill with Black*Star. Wanna come along?"

Kid thought hard about his choices. Go home or Stay with Soul. But to stay with Soul he would have to hear Black*Star's mouth the entire day. YAHOO! This, YAHOO that...could he really put up with that today? But if he went back home he would just be bored again. Kid sighed.

"Yeah let's go." He mumbled.

"Cool!" Soul headed out the door and kid followed behind.

"This is gonna be a long day." Kid thought to himself.

The two boys' began walking down stairs and out of the apartment building.

"Hey Soul. Can I ask you something?" Kid asked.

"Yeah…shoot." Soul smiled.

"Would you like to-"

BMP! BMP!

"Go..."

BMP! BMP!

"On a –"Kid's last word was muted by:

"HEY SOOOOOOOOOOUL!" Black*Star shouted, jumped up and down, rushing towards the Weapon and the young Shinigami boy.
