Hello! Shadowmistx98 here! :)

Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater.

Maka did her usual routine in the morning and left her apartment. She sighed as she skated on the sidewalk. She rubbed her eyes under her eyeglasses and yawned. She got up to a corner and accidentally bumped into someone.

"Oh! I-I'm so sorry! I wasn't-!"

"Maka!" a childish familiar voice shook her eardrums. Maka opened one eye to see who that was and if her guess was right. And she was right. It was Patty.

"Maka!" Patty glomped at her making her almost fall by slipping.

"Whoa! Good morning, Patty!" Maka chuckled as she hugged her back.

"Hey, Patty! Didn't I tell you! Don't talk to people you don't know!" Liz ran to her not knowing it was Maka she was talking to.

"Hi, Liz!" Maka waved at her as she sweat dropped. Patty was still clinging to her.

"Oh! Good! I thought Patty was talking with someone else!" Liz laughed nervously.

"So, Maka… How do you say coming to Patty and I's house for a change?" Liz asked as the three walked together to school. Patty nodded.

"Yeah! Yeah! It will be fun!" Patty walked weirdly. Maka looked at her and saw that she was avoiding the lines of the tiles of the sidewalk. Maka got back to skating but slow for Liz and Patty to catch up with her.

"Um… I don't know…" Maka looked away.

"Maka, it's Friday! If we ever have assignments to work with, you can do it over the weekend! And while we were talking earlier, you said you already finished the book report Ms. Marie gave us!" Liz said. Patty giggled.

"It's Friday! Friday! Gotta get down on Friday! Hahaaha!" Patty hopped along the tiles. Liz groaned and massaged her forehead.

"Patty, will you stop singing that song?" Liz eyed her. Maka smiled.

"Yeah, I suppose I can" Maka looked at Liz who was trying to get a hold of Patty as she sang.

"Really?" Liz looked at her. Maka nodded with a happy smile.

"Alright! Maka, that's so cool!" Liz grinned at her goofily. Maka chuckled. Soon after a few steps, they arrived at their academy. They met up with Tsubaki at the entrance and Liz also invited her. They went into class. Nothing much interesting happened during the class. They had no assignments causing the students to burst out in happiness. After the bell rang, they went out and got to Liz and Patty's house. It was big. They entered it and went to the living room.

"Wow! You're house is so big! Where are your parents?" Tsubaki gawked at the bright chandelier.

"On a business trip. They're in another country" Liz motioned them to sit down.

"Ooh! I'll get the drinks and snacks!" Patty ran out of the room and into the kitchen. Then they heard a breaking sound followed by Patty saying "Oops!" and a laugh. Liz rolled her eyes and came after Liz. Maka and Tsubaki chuckled.

"So, Maka. It's nice to have you here, we should bond more often like this" Tsubaki smiled at her sweetly. Maka smiled back yet somehow uncertain. Liz and Patty came out with trays.

"Oh, which reminds me… Would you guys like to come in my house tomorrow? I'd like you to meet a family friend of mine!" Maka analyzed Tsubaki's face when she said this. Tsubaki's cheeks turned light pink.

"Is it a boy?" Patty asked. Tsubaki scratched her head and smiled goofily. "Uhuh!"

"Really? Is he Japanese too?" Liz asked as she placed the tray at the center table. Tsubaki nodded.

"Nice! We'll come!" Liz smiled at Patty. Then the three looked at Maka.

"Um… I suppose I could" Maka smiled at them. "Yeah! Cheers for Maka!" Liz raised her glass. Each of them took one glass of juice and drank.

"So, how are you and Kid?" Tsubaki asked. Patty laughed while Liz blushed.

"Well… Um…." She looked away. Maka raised her eyebrow. "Well, what?" Maka asked.

"He asked me for a date!" Liz turned bright red.

"Wow, that's amazing Liz!" Tsubaki was happy for her friend. "How did he ask you?" she seemed interested with her love life.

"He bumped into me the other day and asked me if I could go with him tomorrow night!" Liz grabbed Patty's collar and shook her back and forth.

"That's nice…" Maka took one chip from the bag.

"Which reminds me, Maka! Can you order one dress for me again?" Liz bounced in her seat. Maka's eyes twitched.

"H-huh? W-why? You bought two dresses last time, why not just use the other one?" Maka asked.

"Well, my cousin borrowed the two and I won't get it back until next week" she put her hand on her chin. Maka fidgeted her hands and can't help but feel her cheeks burning.

"Maka, is there something wrong?" Liz asked worriedly. "Did I say something?" she asked fearing that she might did.

"Um, n-no! Sure, I'll just bring my laptop out…" Maka shrugged it. If she was going to order, there'll be a chance that she might see him again. She brought her laptop out and opened it. The three girls looked at her weirdly and Maka noticed it.

"Is there something… wrong with my face?" Maka rubbed her cheeks. The girls smiled and shook their heads. Maka continued to type and faced the screen to Liz.

"Well, here ya go!" Maka said. "Oh! Thanks a lot!" Liz scrolled down at the pictures.

"I wonder… The blue one…. Or the red one…" Liz pouted her lips. Tsubaki approached her to come in her aid of choosing. Maka smiled softly as she watched them choose the dress. She thought about it. What if… She did have to change her lifestyle of keeping away from people? If ever, she'll have a hard time. She didn't like to talk to people due to a trauma she had when she was still young in school. Maka started to drift off a bit when Liz called her name.

"Maka! I'll order this one!" Liz excitedly brought the laptop to her front. Maka smiled at her and searched for a few books she could order too. She thought that these guys were different. They were sincere with their friendship with her. She can see that the people who tried to talk to her in her school were sincere too, so she considered the fact of trying to overcome her problem in socializing.

Maka clicked the order button and sent it to her address.

"I'll give you the money today and give me the dresses tomorrow at Tsubaki's house!" Liz stood up and went upstairs to get her payment. After a few minutes, Liz came down again and gave Maka the money. They had a good time together while at Liz and Patty's house. Maka and Tsubaki eventually had to go and leave. They kissed and hugged each other goodbye that made Maka disturbed knowing that they'll still meet each other tomorrow. It's not like they're not going to see each other for a while. Maka skated down on the sidewalk and got to her apartment. She changed her clothes and started to cook her dinner.

Knock knock

Maka looked at the door as she stirred the ingredients in the pot. Maka grabbed the money and went to the door. She took a deep breath and opened the door. The delivery guy was still him.

"Um… G-good evening!" Maka tried to greet him.

"Um, yeah. Good evening! It's um… Nice to see you again" Soul scratched his head and smiled at her making Maka blush a little bit.

"So, um, here are your orders… 4 dresses and 3 books" he handed the boxes out. Maka took them and gave him the money. Soul took it and started to count it if it was right. Maka stood there just in case the money she gave was wrong, though she did recount it before all this.

"Yup! Right amount!" Soul smiled at her. Maka smiled back.

"Um… I don't want to appear nosy but… What are those dresses for?" Soul asked as he looked away, adjusting his cap. Maka's eyes widened as Soul tried to make a small conversation with her.

"Um... T-they're for my friend…" Maka answered. That was a start. She didn't stutter as much as before.

"Oh…" Soul smile went big. "I thought that you wear them for a date…" he scratched his head.

"D-date?" Maka's eyebrows rose. She laughed nervously.

"Ahaha… T-that's impossible… No one will ever take a liking t-to me…" she said as she smiled shyly.

"Are you sure? Cause one might" Soul looked away and stared at the window as he said this. Maka's mouth hung slightly open when he said this. What is he saying? There was a silence. Man, the silence was too awkward for both of them.

"Um… I b-better go now…" Soul pointed at his back. "My boss is probably waiting for me back in the office…" Soul broke the silence.

"Uh, y-yeah… Sure, bye" she waved her hand as he bowed and left. Maka closed the door.

"What was he saying?" Maka blushed.

"Urgh, what did I say?" Soul sat on his motorcycle and face palmed.

"Geez… I'm not really good at this kind of stuff…" he wore his helmet and drove his way back to work.

I know this chapter sucks. It isn't good... :(

Well, Maka has to have reasons why she acts like that towards people. And Liz sure knows how to spend money on clothes in this story.
