"Ahh, Asura...where are we going?"
"To my place."
Maka's face flushed with embarassment. Asura was practically dragging her through the streets, letting the cool air lick her bare, hot skin with smooth strokes. The blond gripped Asura's pale hand tightly. She needed to get back...find Soul...go back to DWMA. But...she wanted to stay with Asura. She was curious to see what he could...do when they were alone and when she could actually hear him. "I-I don't know if I should..."
Asura stopped abruptly, forcing Maka to bump into his arm. "Oof!" Asura focused his gaze on her, then lifted his bangs from his eyes, revealing a third, wide eye. Maka's eyes widened as she stared at the third red eye, identical to the two normal ones down below. She gasped, blinking uncertainly. "Are you...what?"
"It's a birth defect. I don't want it, y'know. But...in order for you to come back with me, I need to know if you're okay with this, otherwise, unfortunately I'll have to take you back to the club." Asura explained, pushing his bangs out of the way. The way he talked about his third eye shuddered with malice, as if he hated it. Maka simply stared at it. Slowly, she reached up to touch just outside of it. It blinked, much to her surprise, and she took her finger away.
"That's...weird, Asura," she said softly. Pain ringed on her voice. Asura looked away, covering his eye. Man, I thought she wouldn't mind this damn thing. The tall man smirked, letting go of Maka's hand. Just like some of the girls. "Good-bye, Maka. It was a pleasure meeting you." He started to walk away, his footsteps clattering against the pavement. His steps were joined with the rythimic clattering of boots. Maka was beside him, taking his hand again, smiling. Then she did something he was not expecting.
Maka stood on her tip toes, pushed the remaining bangs out of the older man's face, and kissed the thir eyelid, which was closed tightly. Her lips retreated and Maka leaned back. Her face was filled with pink as she gazed up at him. Asura didn't open his third eye, but stared, un-blinking down at Maka with wide red eyes. "You kissed my eye."
"Yes."
"Who's the weird one now?" He grinned. Suddenly, he swooped her in her arms, cradling her small body to his own. His hand rested close to her chest and he could feel her beating heart, something he longed to feel...skin to skin.
"C'mon...let's go."
I'm sorry, Soul. Maka thought, cradled against this man's chest.
