Chapter 21: A day to remember


I walk down the road with Soul and Gem, she smiles at me.

"Thanks Maka Chan." She looks at Soul.

"And you too Soul Kun." I nod.

"You were in trouble, I had to come for you." Her smile widens, I look at Soul.

"I should thank you too, I mean if you hadn't come, we, I... thanks." Why am I struggling with my words. Soul smirks.

"Soul stop smirking, it's not funny."

"It's funny to me." I began to walk home, he grabs my arm.

"About that uncool moment, let's just forget about it." I nod, that kiss, that's what he's talking about. We're meister and weapon, nothing special. I continue walking with Gem.

"Forget about what Maka Chan?"

"Nothing." I wave my hand, she giggles.

"Okay it was nothing." Why is she teasing me? Why am I asking so many questions? We approach the door to our house but the damn door is locked.

"Gem is there a key anywhere?" She nods and points to the left. I walk around to the left, no key?

"GOT IT!" What? How did Gem...

"Come on Maka Chan it's super freezy out here."

"Comin." We walk inside, the numbing air didn't go away.

"Maka CHAN!"

"Yeah?" She throws herself on the couch.

"I'm hungry." "Hi hungry I'm Maka, pleased to meet you." She giggles then looks up.

"Can you make..."

"No." She pouts.

"You don't know what I was about to say!"

"Chocolate covered strawberries?"

"Maybe." I smile and went into my room, the room had a certain chill to it. I rest my eyes... what a day, Gem had to be rescued and I was and kinda am, bleeding. I wasn't hungry, just tired.


I wake up and stretch, ow... okay. I got up and walked out of my room, Gem was passed out on the couch, she woke up as she heard me walk in.

"Mornin Maka Chan." I wave and scrimmage through the fridge trying to find something to eat.

"Maka Chan why you still here?"

"I live here." She was silent for a moment then spoke up.

"It's almost seven though." My eyes grew wide.

"DAMMIT!" I ran into my room and found a random outfit, I quickly got changed, got my hair up and ran out the door. This is another let's ruin Maka's day thing isn't it? I kept running until I was at the DWMA, I walk into the classroom, I was late.

"Maka why are you late?" Sid glares at me.

"Forgive me Sid, I overslept, a friend was kidnapped and I had to go re..."

"No more excuses Albarn, just go take your seat." I walk over to my seat, Soul was here, so was Tsubaki but where the hell is Black Star?

"YAHOO!" Oh no, again?! I look up.

"I AM BLACK STAR, THE GREATEST ASSASSIN EVA!"

"Soul he's..."

"Yep, being an idiot." Black Star kept talking.

"I AM THE STAR, SOMEDAY I'LL SURPASS THE GODS!" I wanted to ruin this moment so badly.

"Hey if you're such a "big star" then how come you haven't gotten a single soul." Everyone in the class started to laugh.

"WHO THE HELL SAID THAT?! WAS IT YOU?" He points at a kid, the kid shook his head.

"Black Star I said that." He jumped down and grabbed my hair.

"YEOW HEY!"

"You want to keep that cute little face of your's don't you?" Soul walked over.

"Dude it was a joke, just let her go." Black Star let's me go.

"You just HAVE to protect your damn girlfriend!"

"I don't want this situation to get out of hand, it's not cool."

"SHAD UP!" I walk up.

"Look you two..." Black Star hits my face and pushed me into the wall.

"STAY OUT OF THIS BITCH!" Soul punched him.

"HOW BOUT YOU THINK, DUMBASS!" Black Star and Soul started to fight, I look at Tsubaki.

"Well?" She nods and her hair turns into a chain, she wraps it around Black Star, I grabbed Soul's arm.

"What the hell you two?" Black Star looks at Tsubaki.

"Let me go!"

"No way Black Star!" Sid walks over and handed notes to all of us.

"Clean up the library for disrupting class...again."

"WHY THE DAMN LIBRARY AGAIN?!"

"How come I got one?" Poor Tsubaki. Sid looks at us.

"You 4 always disrupt this class and I'm sick of it!" Aw man... I have never been in trouble so many times.


The library was again dusty and books were everywhere. Black Star grabs a broom, Tsubaki a duster, hey when was that damn duster here? Soul grabs a couple of books and walked up the ladder. Black Star spoke up.

"Well this is perfect, we have to clean the whole place before we can go home, if Soul hadn't been so overprotective..."

"Hey you were being the asshole dude."

"Maka was being the bitch but you had to stand up for her!"

"It. Was. A. Joke." Black Star rolls his eyes.

"Didn't have to help Maka."

"She's my girlfriend why wouldn't I help her?" Soul put a book away and checked the title of the next one.

"You about KILLED ME WHEN I HIT HER!"

"Cause you had to..."

"BOTH OF YOU JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!" We all look at Tsubaki, she looked pissed.

"It's over, just shut it and get this library cleaned before I go insane." I grab a couple of books myself and started putting them away. A big CLANG CRASH filled the room.

"OH COME ON!" I look up.

"SOUL YOU OKAY?"

"Yeah but a ton of junk fell, almost on top of me." I started climbing up.

"What floor are you on?"

"Top." I reached the top floor, I saw Soul staring at the junk.

"Where did this come from?" I ask, Soul points at the closet.

"Why did you open the closet?"

"Felt like it." Of course. Soul started looking through the junk, he picked up an instrument.

"A guitar?" Soul began to strum the guitar.

"Yuck, it's way out of tune." He strums the first note. I cranked one of the knobs on the guitar.

"What are you doing?"

"Tuning it." I strum the note and cranked it a bit more.

"Okay strum it." He did.

"You play don't you?" He smirks, I smile.

"Kinda, never really played." I kinda blushed. He kept tuning it, finally he started to play.

"I thought you could only play piano!"

"Well I play a lot of instruments." I danced a bit to the tune. Tsubaki started banging the duster against a bookshelf, Black Star began to laugh.

"Nice tune you guys." Black Star Grabs two books and bangs them together. Tsubaki spoke up.

"This is missing something!" I stopped dancing.

"What?"

"A singer." She smiles. I look at Soul.

"Don't look at me, I hate singing." Black Star laughs.

"Maka you're doing nothing!"

"I can't sing!"

"You write poetry how hard can it be?"

"But..." Soul lightly kicks my foot.

"Just make it up as you go, we'll make fun of you later." Damn, have no choice.

"Uh..." Soul chuckles, *sigh* this is beyond embarrassing!

"I remember when I was little, a home of violence and I was always stuck in the middle. Then time flew by, changing fast, but I'm stuck in the past. What do I do, I can't go on, what do I say, I'll have to pay. "I'm way too scared, to face the day, this is insane, I gotta pay! Now I ask, am I okay, am I okay?"

"I'm gonna sing out, all about my feelings now, I'm gonna shout the words, comin right outta my mouth. I gotta know, have to change, I shouldn't be the same, yeah. What I'm feeling never matters, I keep it all locked up. This broken heart of a young girl has shattered, aaahhhhh. I can't go on, this feels so wrong, what is this?"

"It isn't me, it's insanity. Just like hell, I just can't tell, am I okay? I'm gonna sing out, all about my feelings now, I'm gonna shout the words, comin right outta my mouth! I gotta know, have to change, I shouldn't be the same!" I kinda danced a bit.

"Am I okay? Am I okay?" Black Star shouts.

"Hey Soul, how about you sing with her this once?" Soul laughs.

"I'm gonna sing out, all about my feelings now, I'm gonna shout the words, comin right out of my mouth! I gotta know, have to change, I shouldn't be the same!"

"Tsubaki you try!"

"Ahhhhhhh yeah yeah yeahah!" Long break.

"Now I know, I'm okay, I've got everybody with...meee." I take a deep breath, wow I didn't know I had that in me!

"So you can't sing?"

"Shut up Soul. I didn't know Tsubaki had that in her, did ya hear her?" She blushed a bit.

"Why didn't you sing Black Star?"

"I directed and played the fucking books to replace cymbals, give me some credit!" We all heard clapping behind us, I turn... AH! Lord Death and SID?! Fuckfuckfuckfuck!

"Well I can clearly see you 4 weren't cleaning!" Lord Death stopped clapping.

"Now sing "Black Paper Moon"!" We all started to laugh. Sid points at the door.

"Just go home you guys." He started to chuckle a bit. We ran out, outside of the school I look at Soul.

"So you're my boyfriend?"
