Me: Alright guys 3rd chapter is up. Again I apologize not much excitement but I definitely set it up for some next chapter.

Soul: I hope Stein doesn't have me do something uncool just for Maka.

Maka: I think it would be sweet if you did something uncool for me once in a while.

Soul: I don't do sweet.

Me: -coughs-

Soul: You didn't

Me: Maka if you would please.

Maka: Right! s0uleaterevans does not own Soul Eater or it's characters. Now read and review or I will Take your soul!

Chapter 3: Operation Coolest Date Ever

Soul's pov

You've gotta be kidding me.

This was the craziest idea that screw head has ever come up with.

But crazy enough to work.

"You really think this stupid plan is gonna work? I mean come on. A date?" I said giving him a stern look.

"Come on Soul. I'm telling you if she's anything like her mother, and I'm sure she is, taking her out on a romantic date will win her heart over for sure." Stein said with that crazed grin.

"Wait a minute. How would you know Maka's mother would like that?" I asked.

He twitched.

"I may have followed Stein and Kami on their little dates." Stein confessed while scratching the back of his head. "It was all for an experiment of mine."

Man what a creeper.

"You're such a pervert." I gave him a disgusted look.

"Oh don't act so high and mighty Soul. Especially when I'm trying to help you."

"Alright fine. A romantic date huh? I'm not exactly a romantic person though. Man this isn't cool." I said scratching my head.

"Cool or not we don't have a lot of options. The least you can do is try. I will even get Marie to help you out." there's that damn mischievous smile again.

"Oh no. you are not setting me up with a date with a teacher! Not happening."

…it's happening.

So not cool.

"Ugh I am going to kill him!" I yelled in my thoughts.

"Hey Soul you alright over there. Relax it's just practice." Marie said in an attempt to calm me down.

We were sitting at a table at some fast food joint. Marie made a note that this was just practice and I should never bring a girl to a cheap place like this for a date.

"Sorry. This sort of stuff just isn't cool. Going on a date with a teacher is kinda embarrassing." thank god no one I knew was here.

"Don't worry no one else is gonna find out." Marie stated.

What the hell? Can she read minds or what?

"So what should I have for dinner….." Marie said lost in thought.

….dinner

Oh crap.

"I'm sorry but I gotta go. Here use this to pay." I handed her the money and ran out.

I think I heard her yelling something as I left but I couldn't make out what she said.

Maka is going to kill me.

I had just remembered I promised I would be home for dinner.

Ugh I'm a dead man.

I wonder exactly how many Maka Chops are waiting for me at home.

I got on my motorcycle and drove of at full speed.

Maka's pov

I am going to kill him!

Here I am slaving over the oven for an hour making us his favorite meal and HE'S LATE!

I had to eat alone or it was gonna get cold.

That bastard.

Where's my book? I swear I'm gonna Maka Chop him into a coma.

I was so lost in my thoughts that I almost broke the plate I was washing.

Damn it. I need to be more careful.

"What's wrong Maka?" I heard a familiar feline voice ask.

I turned around to find Blair sitting on the floor next to the fridge.

"Oh hey Blair. Yeah I'm fine. Just mad at Soul. As usual."

Blair let out a sigh.

"What did he do this time?" she asked.

"Oh nothing. Just never showed up for dinner like he promised." I added that last bit with malice.

"Oh. I'm sure he has a good reason for not showing up Maka. Try not to be too hard on him ok? I'm going out for a bit. See you later." she said before leaping out the window.

"Ok." was all I could get out.

Jeez where does she go every night? Between her day job at Chupa Cabras and her nightly outings she's rarely ever home.

Then I heard the door open.

Punishment time!

Soul's pov

Not cool.

As soon as I step through the doorway, I feel a book plummet on top of my head at full speed.

…ow.

"Man Maka. You could have let off a little. I swear I'm seeing double." I said glumly.

"YOU'RE LUCKY TO GET OFF SO LIGHTLY! I SHOULD KILL YOU!" she screamed at me.

Man now I feel even more guilty.

"I know Maka and I'm sorry. I promise I will make it up to you."

"Oh? And how do you plan on doing that?" she asked with a skeptical look.

Then it hit me. This is the perfect chance!

I flashed her my toothy grin.

"How about a date?" I asked making sure my tone was cool and collected.

She looked dumbstruck.

"Um….wha?" she asked.

"A date….with me." I said.

Oh great. Maybe this was a bad idea.

"Are….you serious?" she asked giving me that same skeptical look.

"Maka cool guys don't play around like that. So do you wanna go or not?" I asked a little annoyed at this whole situation.

"Um…..sure." she said looking less skeptical.

"Re-really?" I asked a little surprised.

"Yeah. I would love to." she then stated looking…was it….happy?

Was she actually looking forward to it?

Did she actually just agree to going on a date with me?

I slapped myself mentally.

Calm down Soul. Of course she said yes. You're the coolest guy in school remember?

"Ok. How about tomorrow? We don't have any school so we can spend the whole day doing whatever." I said, sounding a little too excited.

"Yeah sounds great. Well I'm gonna go to bed early today. I'm extremely tired. Good night." she said walking down the hall.

"Yeah good night."

I waited until I heard the door shut.

AHHHHHH YEAHH! THE COOL GUY SCORES A DATE!

Man I hope I didn't say that out loud.

That damn ninja is starting to rub off on me.

But whatever. That doesn't matter. I got a date with Maka!

I glanced over at the clock and noted it was a little after 9.

I yawned.

Huh. Guess I'm a little exhausted from today's events as well. Guess I should hit the sack.

Besides I got a big day tomorrow. Because tomorrow I will win my meisters heart!

Maka's pov

Did that really just happen?

Did the guy that I've had a crush on for years just ask me out on a date?

And out of nowhere?

I could still feel the blush on my face. The one I worked so hard to hide from Soul.

I clung to my pillow as I thought through what had just happened.

It played over and over like a broken record.

It did in fact happen.

Does he actually like me like that?

Or is he just trying to get out of more Maka Chops.

…probably the latter.

Yeah.

He doesn't like me in that way.

He's into woman like Blair.

Not plain girls like me.

I shouldn't think to much on the subject though.

Oh sleep claim me already.

And sure enough I was soon out like a light.

Third person pov

Hiding just outside the window out of sight a very sneaky kitty sat as she listened to everything that her two roommates were saying.

"They're going on a date? How scandalous!" the witch cat thought to herself.

Maka's pov

Unh…..what's that smell?

Bacon?

I opened my eyes. Morning already?

I glanced at my clock and it read 9:34 am.

Is Soul cooking breakfast?

Wait is Soul actually up this early on a day we don't have school?

Then I remembered what happened last night.

Ah. So our date is already starting I guess.

I walk out still in my pajamas.

I couldn't believe my eyes.

Soul was wearing an apron. Making breakfast.

I must still be dreaming. This isn't like Soul at all.

"Hey. 'morning sleepy-head." he said shooting me his toothy grin.

"Hey Soul. Wow this is unexpected. I never thought I'd live to see the day when you were up before me." I said teasing.

"There's a first time for everything you know. Now shush and take a seat. Breakfast is ready."

I sat down and he set a plate of bacon, eggs, and toast in front of me.

"Wow it smells delicious" I thought to myself as I took a bite of the eggs.

"Wow. Who knew Soul could cook?" I said with a mouth full of eggs.

"Heh. All cool guys know how to cook Maka. Since I'm the coolest I'm the best cook."

I couldn't argue with that logic.

"So is this part of our date?" I asked teasingly.

"Yep and it's only gonna get better. I got us tickets for that chick flick you've been wanting to see." he told me pulling out two tickets.

Ok now I know this isn't Soul.

"Who are you and what have you done with my weapon?" I asked skeptically.

He sighed.

"What are you talking about Maka. I'm the same Soul as always. I'm just trying to treat my meister to a good time today." he stated.

"Alright Soul if you say so. So when's the movie?"

"Noon. We got plenty of time so don't rush yourself."

"Aren't you gonna eat?" I asked noticing he didn't make himself a plate.

"I already did. I'm gonna go back into my room. Just holler If you need anything." he said before disappearing into his room.

Wow. He's being so nice and gentleman like.

Maybe he does like me that way….

Soul's pov

Alright step one complete. Step two is all set. Step three isn't a problem. Just need to secure step four.

I picked up my cell and called the number of a fancy 5-star restaurant here in Death City that Stein gave me.

There was a few rings when someone picked up.

"Hello and thank you for calling "Death row" how may I be of service?" I heard a male husky voice ask.

"Hi my name is Soul Evans and I would like to make a reservation for two at 6 pm." I said

"Is there a specific spot you would like your table at?" he asked.

"Yes preferably a window seat." I stated.

"Very well Mr. Evans we will see you at 6." and with that the line went dead.

Alright step 4 secured.

I can worry about step 5 later.

I better get ready to head out for our movie. I'm sure she's getting ready right now.

After a quick shower. I had changed into a blue t-shirt and jeans.

When I stepped back out I saw that Maka was wearing a yellow sundress with her hair still up in pigtails. Not that I minded. In fact I loved her hair like that.

"So you ready to head out?" I asked her.

"Yep." she said giving me her beautiful smile.

"Alright." I said walking to the door. I opened it and motioned for her to go ahead. "Ladies first."

"Why thank you Mr. Evans." she said giggling.

Great she's already poking fun at me.

**Me: Oh yeah. The 4th chapter is gonna be good. All of my readers are gonna be in for quite a show.

Soul: You are pure evil you know that?

Me: But in a cool way.

Maka: I agree.

Soul: Yeah sure take his side.

Maka: What are you talking about?

Me: Don't mind him he's just mad about this whole romantic date thing.

Soul: So not cool.

Me: You'll get over it.

Maka: Review or I will take your soul!
