Me: I hope everyone liked chapter four. No reviews yet but I'm sure that's because everyone's busy. I gotta go to work soon so I probably wont be able to post this chapter 'til later tonight. Ugh I gotta work a 12 to 10 shift tomorrow. So not looking forward to it.

Soul: Ha! Jobs aren't cool at all.

Maka: Says the deadbeat.

Soul: Hey! It's not like I need to get a job. Hell hunting kishins and being a Death Scythe pretty much covers all of our expenses and then some.

Maka: Yeah well S0ul here doesn't have that luxury.

Me: Don't remind me. Wish I could turn into a cool scythe.

Soul: Well you can't. Anyways S0uleaterevans doesn't own Soul Eater or any of it's characters.

Maka: R&R or I will take your soul!

Chapter 5: Half and Half

Soul's pov

I opened my eyes to find I was once again floating in blackness.

"Soul, up here."

I looked up to find the demon standing in a doorway, motioning me to come in.

I stepped into the black room wearing the pinstripe suit I had wore to dinner last night.

"Yeah what is it ogre?" I asked him annoyed.

"I just wanted to congratulate you on stopping the black blood from progressing. It is now on a stand still. Whatever you guys did last night, it worked.

I had blushed at the thought of last night.

And the demon noticed.

"Well Soul I'm curious. What did the two of you do exactly?" the demon asked with that stupid grin.

"Like you don't already know." I mean really he "is" me.

"Actually I respected your privacy. I didn't want to intrude on anything." the demon said giving me a dumb look.

"Well I'm quite surprised little oni. That's unlike you. Anyways I'm not telling. Cool guys don't kiss and tell." I proclaimed.

"Ah so you guys kissed. How cute." he gave me that devilish grin.

"Maybe. Anyways it's none of your business so lay off." I warned him.

"Actually it's just as much my business as it is your's Soul." he said grinning.

"What the hell are you going on about?" I asked confused.

"You see Soul, when you guys did whatever and stopped the blood from progressing, the black blood had already taken up half of you blood stream. So right now I am taking up half your body. We are co-owners you could say." he stated.

"What?" what does this mean?

"With that said. I am now in a position to take control of you body and overwhelm your soul with madness." he said grinning unnaturally wide.

"LIKE HELL YOU WILL! Don't forget I'm still in control and I plan on keeping it that way." I stated

"Is that so?" the demon chuckled.

And then he did something I didn't expect.

He grew.

And grew.

Until he was level with me.

And then he lunged.

I quickly transformed my left arm into a scythe and parried his blow.

I transformed my other arm into a scythe and counter attacked.

But he simply caught my blade in his hand.

"You cant hurt me Soul. At least not like that." he said as he pushed me away.

Then everything started getting fuzzy.

I heard someone yelling my name.

…..Maka?

Then everything went dark once again and I opened my eyes.

I was back on my bed.

I felt something gripping my hand tightly.

I looked over and found my meister holding it. Looking at me with those deep forest eyes. They were filled with worry.

I gripped her hand tightly.

"It was just a nightmare Maka. I'm fine." I told her reassuringly.

"I know Soul, I still couldn't help but worry." she admitted.

I scooted closer to her and placed a kiss on her forehead.

"Sorry Hun. It's not cool for a guy to make his girl worry." I gave her my signature grin.

"It's ok. It's kinda early but would you like some eggs for breakfast?" she asked.

"Sure that sounds great. Give me a few minutes and I will be out." I told her.

"Ok."

And with that she jumped out of bed. Wearing nothing but her underwear.

Huh. Forgot we had undressed last night.

Now about that dream.

Was it real?

Is the demon really occupying half of me?

And what if he is? What does that mean?

Can he really take control of my body if he wanted to?

Looks like I will need to pay the crazy professor another visit.

After breakfast I told Maka that I need to go see Professor Stein for something.

"Is everything alright?" she asked me.

"Yeah, he just wanted to see me for something today. I shouldn't be long."

I walked over to her and pecked her lips before heading to the door.

"Ok be careful." she called out before I shut the door.

Maka's pov

Everything seemed like a dream.

I've never been so happy.

Soul and I are finally together.

And last night was just….

Amazing.

That kiss was just…..

Perfect.

Like everything clicked together.

As if it was meant to happen.

Is this what it's like to be with the person you love?

Is this what it's like to be in love?

So many questions running through my head.

All I know is that I'm truly happy.

I wonder if this is how mama felt.

Then something hit me.

Mama and papa.

What if this is how it was for them.

What if the same thing happens to me and Soul?

No.

Soul is nothing like Papa.

He doesn't go around chasing woman.

He's loyal.

And the coolest Death Scythe ever.

Way cooler than Papa. I made sure of that.

I glanced at the clock.

Man it's only been 10 minutes since Soul left.

I gotta find something to do to pass the time.

Where'd I put that book I just bought?

Soul's pov

It didn't take long to reach Stein's place this time around.

I hopped off my bike and rang the creepy door bell.

"Come in. The door's open." I heard the crazed professor call out.

"Hey Stein it's me." I called while walking in.

"Ah Soul. How did it go last night?" he asked.

I gave him a thumbs up.

"Operation: "coolest date ever" successful." I said with a toothy grin.

"Excellent. Let's take a look at your blood then."

"Yeah about that."

I told him about the dream I had with the demon. Explaining what the little ogre told me and attacking me.

"Hmmm I see. Well the best way to confirm this is to run a quick blood test. Follow me."

He led me to his lab once again for a blood test.

After he was done he left the room for a few minutes then came back with the results.

"I'm afraid it's true. Half of your blood is now black." he said.

"This isn't good. I can feel the demon trying to pull me into madness more often than usual. There's gotta be a way to purge the black blood at least to it's original level." I said.

"Well there is a way, although I think it may be too soon for the two of you. After all you just started dating." he stated.

"What is it?" I asked

"Well….hmm how to explain this to a 16 year old boy? If the two of you…ahem….express your love for each other in a physical way…"

I cut him off right there.

"NO WAY STEIN! I AM NOT JUST GONNA HAVE SEX WITH MY MEISTER FOR SUCH A SELFISH REASON!" I yelled at him.

"You love her right?" he asked me.

"Of course I do!" I replied.

"Well then think of it as just showing her how much you love her and not for suppressing the black blood."

"Maybe I should just tell her what's going on. It's not cool of me to be keeping her out of this."

"That maybe a good idea. Let's clue her in on everything and see what she thinks." Stein said giving me a sadistic look.

"It's settled then. I will bring her here and we can formulate a plan together. Just do me a favor and make sure Spirit doesn't catch wind of any of this." I told him.

"Not to worry. That clueless womanizer is probably at chupa cabras right now."

And with that I left to head back to the apartment.

**Me: Why has everyone stopped reviewing all of a sudden? Is my story going down hill?

Soul: I think it's pretty cool so far.

Maka: Even though your about to become a huge jerk.

Me: Maka! No spoilers!

Maka: Oops sorry.

Soul: Not cool Maka.

Maka: Shut up Soul!

Me: -sighs- Just send me out with the usual guys.

Soul and Maka: Review or we WILL take your soul!

Me: Seriously they will. Soul's hungry.
