A.N. Sorry it's been a while since I updated. I read all of your comments and I loved the reactions I got for this story so far! You are all great! Have no fear; this story does have a happy ending. Continue to R&R and give me ideas for pairing for the next story. Oh, almost forgot, I still don't own Soul Eater, the characters, Death City or the DWMA.
Chapter 3: Accidental Discovery
Soul's POV
Today was totally un-cool! Maka barely talked to me and when she did talk to me it was because she had too. I hated having this awkward tension and I wanted to stay as far away from her as possible, which is hard when I have every class with her and we sat right next to each other.
She decided to stay late at school again for some reason so I went home alone and attempted to do my homework. I was distracted by the events of last night and today that it was impossible to focus. I didn't realize how hard I was pushing my pencil into the paper until the tip snapped and my hand it the kitchen table.
I got up and walked into my room and over to the desk, I rummaged through multiple things trying to find either a pencil or a sharpener or something I could use to finish my drag of a report. I found nothing and decided to go check Maka's stuff. I started searching through drawers, making sure that I put everything back where I found it. I didn't want to rock the boat anymore then needed.
I shifted something's on the top of her desk and found a pencil when an envelope fell on the floor. I picked it up and looked at it. It had my name on the front. I turned it around to find that it wasn't sealed. I carefully pulled out the paper inside it and unfolded it to find out it was a letter. I started to read it getting surprised at what I was reading.
Dear Soul,
I'm not going to sugar coat this at all or give you some lame cover up. I love you. I have since we first met. I have no idea how you feel about me but after seeing you with Blair, I can tell you don't feel the same. It hurt me Soul, so much. It hurt me to see you kissing Blair. I wanted to be the one kissing you. I'm writing this tell you how I honestly feel. I don't know how much longer I can stand by and watch as you kiss and fall in love with other girls that aren't me. I know you will never read this because I wouldn't be able to face you if you knew. I will love you forever and keep wishing that someday, maybe, you will feel the same.
Love, Maka
I was in pure shock. I slowly folded the letter back up and put it back where I found it. I walked out with the pencil and continued to do my homework until Maka came home. As I was working, I kept thinking about what she said in the letter. Maybe I do love her, I thought to myself, what am I saying…..it's Maka. On the other hand, she is pretty, smart, and my partner. I couldn't focus, so I sat and waited for her to get home so I could ask her about the letter herself.
