Chapter 8.

"Soul I'm home!" Maka yelled, slipping through the door and into the shared apartment.

"Soul?" She called again, still not getting an answer.

The meister dropped her shopping on the kitchen table, before heading towards her partners bedroom. But when pushing the black door open she found the room to be dark and unfortunately vacant.

Sighing Maka made her way back into the empty kitchen. Soul was probably out playing basketball with Black*Star. It wasn't like she was opposed to him playing ball after school, in fact she couldn't care less. But as corny as it sounded Maka was looking forward to seeing him when she got home. She thought he might like to go see a movie with her, seeming they missed out the other night.

Maka dumped her shopping bag on her bed, before pulling the elegant dress out, cutting off the tag and hanging it on the back of her door, ready for tomorrow night. She sighed again, stepping back and admiring it from a distance. It really was a good choice of dress. Tsubaki was so good at those sort of things.

"Well I better go and get Soul if we want to make this movie." She mumbled to herself, grabbing the apartment keys off the table and walking out the front door, heading towards the basketball courts.

"SCORE!" Black*Star yelled as the rough orange ball, swished through the mesh of the hoop. "YAHOO!"

"Man, you cheated! You can't double dribble." Soul shook his head, rules didn't apply with Black*Star, he didn't care for anything else but coming out on top.

While the assassin was still basking in his greatness, Soul grabbed the ball from his grip and ran down to the other side of the court. Before Black*Star could register what had just happened, Soul had shot the ball through the hoop, with a satisfying swish noise.

"That's how the pro's do it." Soul said, shoving one hand into his pocket all the while spinning the orange ball on his index finger.

"Not fair! The great me wasn't ready!" Black*Star rebutted.

"Who cares?" Soul smirked.

"I do damn it!" The blue haired boy yelled, trying to snatch the ball off the scythes finger.

Soul sighed, surrendering the ball to his friend.

"I better go, Maka will hit me if I'm too late."

"Fine! But I won!" Black*Star proclaimed.

"Sure if you say so." The weapon shrugged, waving goodbye over his shoulder, before placing his hand back into his pocket and walking in the opposite direction to his basket ball buddy.

Soul grumbled as he eyed the suits in the small shop's window. He still didn't have a partner, and the dance was tomorrow night. At this rate he would probably be turning up alone. Typical Soul, leaving things till the very last minute.

He sighed again, rounding the corner, but the next thing he knew he was sprawled on the footpath, he must have been knocked over, because he didn't remember tripping.

"Shit, I'm so sorry!" A voice said from under him.

"Crap! So un-cool...sorry." Soul apologized to the girl who he was unintentionally lying on top of. He jumped up, quickly offering his hand in help, as a gentleman should.

"Sorry about that...I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking. My bad." He apologised for the second time. Soul stood in front of a long brown haired girl, with astonishing blue eyes.

"That's ok..neither was I...Wait! Oh my god! Your Soul Eater Evans Right!" The girl shrieked , jumping up and down in excitement.

He glared in annoyance as his last name was used.

"I'm Yumi! Pleased to meet you! I go to Shibusen as well, I've seen you around a fair bit, your partners with Maka Alpurn right?" The annoying girl grinned.

"It's Maka Alburn, and yes." Soul corrected.

'Great a fan girl.' The scythe thought. He was sick of these sorts of people. 'I mean it's not my fault I'm irresistibly good looking.'

"Oh sorry." Yumi apologised, not caring in the least.

"Nice to meet you." Soul grumbled, trying to be polite.

"Say, I heard you don't have a partner to the dance yet do you? I don't have one either." She told him suggestively.

It wasn't hard to figure out her motive behind her words. Yumi was practically asking him to the dance herself. But she was right, he didn't have anyone yet. Even though he really detested these sort of people, it was too late to look for someone else and he really didn't want to go without a partner...that would be extremely uncool. Besides it was only for one night right? He sighed.

"Yeah your right...Do you want to go with me?" Soul asked regrettably.

"Oh my god! Yes! Thank you so much!" Yumi shrieked again, throwing herself on him.

"No problem" The weapon mumbled a little taken back by her outburst.

But Soul was defiantly not expecting the kiss that followed.

She was WAY too excited about it all and somehow thought that kissing him would be a good way to show her thanks.

Soul's eyes widened in surprise.

'What the fuck?' He thought.

A horribly familiar sob came from his left.

"Maka?" Soul questioned through Yumi's lips.

He pushed the over-excited female away, and turned to look in the direction the noise had come from.

Maka had her head down.

"Sorry, I've interrupted something, I'll be going now." His meister sobbed, wiping her eyes before retreating down the closest street.

"Maka wait!" Soul yelled, breaking into a sprint, trying to catch up to her.

"So I guess I'll see you tomorrow night then!" The pathetic girl yelled after him.

He didn't bother to answer. Maka was upset and it was his fault. That was all that mattered to him at the moment.

I'm happy with how this turned out.
