I opened my eyes and starred up at the total darkness in the room, trying to remember what I was dreaming about, but I couldn't. I turned my head around to look at my clock on the side of my bed.
"5:31" I mumbled to myself smacking my palm against my forehead.
I couldn't sleep I threw the duvet away from me and swung my legs around to get out of bed, I walked over to my window and sat on the ledge next to it. Soul would be home from his mission today, I know Liz is looking forward to seeing him. Tomorrow's Tuesday, Liz is gonna drag me down to karaoke, I said I'd go, is it too late to back out? A week had already past without Kid, I was dying inside, I couldn't take it any longer, I needed him by my side.
"Don't forget me Kid…" A small tear ran down my cheek as I looked up at the moon smiling down at me "But if you do, I'll run to you, I'll find you, and I'll make you remember me once again. And if I forget you I hope that you'll do the same"
I leaned up against the wall and slowly closed my eyes drifting off to sleep.
"Maka!" A voice called running through the front door.
"Kid!" I exclaimed and jumped up off of my bed.
I ran into the living room to see Soul closing the door slowly behind him "Maka are you okay?"
A massive pain struck my chest as I turned around to walk back into my room "Yeah, I'm fine"
I closed the door behind me and flopped onto my bed and slowly began to sobbed once again 'He'll come back, he said he would'
I placed my earphones into my ears and started listening to my music, I played the same song over and over again because it was the song that reminded me most of me and Kid.
They grew up in the same old town,
never knowing the other was around
read from the damn books,
but never caught each other's looks,
The lyrics of the song made me smile, thinking of the happy memories that me and Kid had together, I continued to listen moving my lips along with the words.
But one day the sun will shine, I know
for their eyes have told me so,
chasing advice from those who say
I've lost my mind,
I opened my mouth and began to sing along with the words, sitting up on my bed nodding my head along with the music keeping the same beat.
"Rush together to find each other
No it's too late, you can never wait for luck
Together playing the same instrument
That you still cant hear at all"
"Maka…?" Soul questioned knocking on the door "Are you sure you're alright?"
More tears streamed down my cheeks 'No Soul, I'm not alright'
I sniffed wiping the tears away "Yeah, I'm okay!"
"Okay, me and Liz are going out, wanna come?"
"No thanks" I called out to him "Maybe later"
After that there was utter silence, my guess was that Soul had gone so I carried on singing.
"So that's how the story goes so far
I'll tell you the rest, but now,
I'm tired of what I think,
A situation where I can't sing,
But I hate the vagrant life, I know
Nothing has been more sold, 'till now
Living my life for those who say
I've lost my mind…"
Later that day, I didn't wanna be stuck in my apartment any longer so I grabbed my coat, slipped on my shoes and ran out the door. I walked longingly down the street holding my hands in my pockets not wanting to take them out as if I was scared to. The street was completely deserted. Suddenly the sound of singing filled my mind again, no, it was coming from behind me, I slowly turned around and Kid was standing there leaning up against the wall.
"Rush together to find each other…" He was mumbling to himself looking down at the ground "Maka…" He looked up at me starring at me with his golden eyes.
I ran towards him trying to hug him, but my hand went right through his body "What…"
He looked at my hand sticking through his body and then up at me again "I'm not real, I'm just a figure of your imagination"
I pulled my hand away still starring at him "You seem so real…"
"It's just because you wanna see me so bad your image of me seems more believable than it is" He sighed.
I opened my mouth to say the words I'd been dying to say all along but suddenly a gust of wind came blowing him away. I buried my face in my hands trying my best not to cry, but all I had done since the day he left was cry, why would I just stop crying now, I couldn't, the tears were stronger than I was.
'I keep seeing him…' I smacked my hand against my face trying to wake myself up 'Why?'
I ran back home, I had just left and already I couldn't be out of my apartment without crying.
'Maybe I should call him?' I thought to myself placing a finger to my chin 'I can't!'
I fell back onto my bed and starred up at the high ceiling, forgetting everything I once knew.
'How do I breathe again? Inhale and exhale, I can't breathe!' I burst into tears once more, kicking my legs against the mattress 'God someone help me!'
Liz and Soul walked through the front door hearing the sounds of loud crying and banging in my room.
"Maka!" Soul cried running through my bedroom door "Stop!"
Liz pinned me down to the bed trying to calm me down "Breathe!"
I stopped kicking my legs and just laid still, tears rolled down my cheeks "I don't know how to anymore"
Liz and Soul looked at each other in despair.
Soul sat next to me on the bed and pulled me into a hug "Maka he said he'll come back, he promised you and I know Kid, he doesn't break his promises"
I relaxed in his arms placing my head on his chest listening to the sound of his heartbeat in his chest "I don't want him to forget me"
Liz looked down at the ground behind eyes, her eyes filled with tears as they sparkled in the light, she held her hands behind her back and sighed.
"Who could possibly forget you Maka" Soul held me tighter "You're the best person in the world"
I saw a small tear roll down Liz's cheek, she quickly wiped it away and walked out of the room leaving me and Soul.
Almost 1 week and 2 days had gone without Kid around, and soon it would be 2 weeks, I can't wait any longer, I had to see him, I had to see him for real, not just a figure of my imagination. I looked up at the sky, that's all I would do since he left, I would describe how the moon and stars were dancing together in the sky, I became obsessed with them, and they were the only thing that made me happy. As I the stars moved around in the sky, more lyrics started to form in my head.
Tried to break love to a science,
In an act of pure defiance
I broke her heart.
I smiled at the thought of the song, this was the first song me and Kid actually listened to when we first started being boyfriend and girlfriend.
As I pulled apart her theories,
As I watched her growing weary
I pulled her apart.
I looked up at the dancing moon and stars once again and the stars started to dance around to the music in my head.
You won't find faith or hope down a telescope,
You won't find heart and soul in the stars,
You can break everything down to chemicals
But you can't explain a love like ours.
"Soul!" Liz yelled followed by a loud bang.
"Liz I don't know why you're mad at me I've done nothing wrong!" Soul complained.
"You think of Maka more than you think of me, do you love her?" Liz continued to yell not caring I was in the next room.
I walked over to the small crack in my door and starred through into the living room watching them argue.
"Of course I don't love her, I love you!" Soul span around to face Liz "She just needs help, she feels all alone now Kid's left her!"
"How do you think his my meister!" Liz exclaimed.
He took a deep sigh "Not the same thing. He was Maka's boyfriend!"
"I just wish that you'd spend a little more time with me!" Liz threw her hands in the air.
"What are you saying I should stop spending time with her?" Soul stepped forward.
"No, I just wish you'd stop spending time with her all the time" Liz sighed, tears running down her cheeks.
"She's my friend Liz!" Soul started to yell again "And she needs help!"
Liz huffed storming out of the apartment slamming the door behind her. I span around running back over to my bed and burst into tears in my pillow.
"Kid…" I sobbed "Please come back"
