NEXT CHAPTER IN 3...2...1...
SOULS POV
I was woken up by the ringing of my cells phone. I scrambled through my bed sheets trying to find it when I finlly felt it in my hands. I looked at the caller ID and realized it as Maka.
I was pondering whether to aswer it or not, cause she was just in the other room...right?''
Fear overwhelmed me as I fumbled to answer makas call.
"Maka?! Where are you!" I asked in a panicky tone. I didn't hear anything but music in the back round. Eventually I heard her sniffle.
"Maka! Answer me damn it!" I yelled into the phone. I grabbed the covers of my bed and hopped down, getting dressed as I waited for maka to respond.
"So..ouul?" Maka quietly asked. I was so relieved to hear her voice.
"Maka! Where are you im coming to get you!" I started to head out the door waiting for directions to pick her up. I figured shewas at some kind of party, until I heard her speak.
"immm...soo..tired sssouuull" She slurred.
Shit.
She go drunk.
"Maka don't do anything stupid just stay there." I demanded walking down the street, crunching the snow as I walked. I knew where she was because there was only one place she could be.
As soon as I arrived at the bar, I walked in the doors as fast as I could scanning the room over and over searching for her. When I saw her my heart sank.
She was wrapped up in a corner. Her coat was missing and she looked drunk as hell. I ran over to her tapping her shoulder to let her know I was there. She was sitting on the floor with her head buried in her hands.
She looked up when she felt my taps.
"Sooouulll" She cried, her words jumbled together. "Ii know yyou didn't want to come geett me cause youuu made butt I didn't know who elsse to call." She cried into my shirt. I could smell the Alcohol on her breath as she spoke to me with each slurred word.
"No, you can always call me, remember that." I stated looking at her Poor condition.
She nodded lazily as I looked around the bar. I looked back at her and decided I needed to get her home as soon as I could.
"This is not cool Maka" I stated, taking my jacket off to keep her warm on the short walk home. I grabbed her shoulders to keep her steady as we walked out of the bar. Eventually Maka's steps became slower and slower with each step.
She took one final step before she gave out. She fell towards the ground. I quickly knelt down and caught her 2 inches from the floor.
She was so drunk she couldn't even walk.
Great.
I gently lifted her up, and carried her bridal style back to the house. She gained consciousness halfway to the house.
"Sooull, Llet mee down I can waaalk" She murmured, keeping her head gently on my chest. I looked down to see the bags under her eyes ad the tired look on her face.
"No, you'll get hit by a truck" I said sarcastically.
She lightly pushed on my chest with the little strength she had.
The more I looked at her, the more fragile she looked. Her small frail body was nothing compared to my broad shoulders. I could wrap my whole arm around her.
He hair fell loosely around her neck and her eyes where open but, from the looks of it she wasn't paying attention to anything. She started to shiver from the cold weather, luckily our house was only a few minutes away, but for the time being I held her closer to me to keep her from the cold.
I walked into the house with Maka in my arms. I Sat her on the couch as she slumped over, her head leaning against its back and her hands falling loosly to her sides.
I walked to the kitchen to find some asprin, from the looks of it she was gonna need it soon.
I grabbed two of them and grabbed a glass of water, when I turned around I saw Maka standing near the kitchen table. I walked up to her, her cheeks were red and she looked as though she could be running a fever.
I placed my hand on her forehead to see if she had a temperature. It was definitely a little warm.
I Ushered her to sit down o take her asprin before she went to bed but she just looked down at the ground.
"Maka?..." I asked walking a bit closer to her. I grabbed her shoulders and urged her to look at me but she stared at the ground the whole time.
"Imm, the one whose holding ou baccckk aren't I?" She asked me, a tear slipping from her eyes.
Shocked from her out burst I quckly made her look at me.
"that is NOT true." I said shaking her body slightly.
"I-Its o-kay for yyoouu to l-eve me ill be fin-e you cann find aaa b-etter partner iif you want." She cried "All I eevver doo iiis cause you troouuble."
I looked at her shocked
"Maka I won't ever leave you, your my partner, my only partner." I stated
She cried and fell into my chest. He alcoholic breath was so close I could taste it, he was so drunk, im not even sure if she knew what she was saying. I held her in my arms on the kitchen floor until she calmed down and fell asleep.
I gently carried her to her bed and carefully placed her on the pillow. I covered her with her blanket and watched as she slept before I left.
