I sat on my couch bored. I had previously sent my letter to my mom in the post office, and I just returned a few minutes ago.
"I'm home," Souls says as he walks through the front door.
"Hey!" I said. I saw Soul jump a bit. He looked depressed. "What's wrong?"
"Liz broke up with me," Soul says as he goes and sits on the dining table.
"Did she get together with Kid?" I ask.
"Yeah, she told him everything and eventually they got together," Soul answers with a sigh.
"You look down did you actually like her?" I ask. He looks at me for a few minutes then looks down at his hands.
"You never realize what you have till you lose it," I heard Soul mumble. "Maka, did you actually like kid?"
I froze in my spot. How do I answer that? How can I possibly say that I dated him to get over Soul? What do I say? "I….like…I like you Soul," I found myself saying. I heard no answer, no sound for what felt like eternity.
"Did I hear wrong?" Soul says befuddled. I look at his confused expression.
"No, you didn't," I said as I got up and started to walk to my room.
"Where are you going?" Soul asks.
"I know your answer, and I really feel like being alone," I said as I felt tears go down my face.
"What do you think my answer is going to be?" Soul asks.
"You're going to say no," I said truthfully. I close my door and sat down leaning on my door.
"Sorry, but you're right," I heard Soul say softly as I heard his footsteps walk past my room to his own. I bit my lip trying to stop myself from crying. I need to stop liking him. I heard my cellphone ring in my pocket. I shakily to it out and saw a text message waiting for me.
HEY! IT'S THE GREAT BLACKSTAR! HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE ABLE TO WIN SOUL'S HEART?
I stare at the screen and found myself laughing. Win his heart? I'm nowhere near wining his heart. Wait forget that thought. I need to get over him. I start typing back to Blackstar.
Maka: Win his heart? Blackstar you and I both know I'm nowhere near winning his heart….Anyway I'm giving up on him….
Blackstar: WHY ARE YOU GIVING UP ON HIM?
Maka: I confessed to him and I got my reply he doesn't like…I have a feeling he never will :(
Blackstar: Sorry, but who wouldn't like you? You're so smart and pretty. You even got two drunk men drooling over you
Maka: Thanks for reminding me about that, and no sarcasm implied on what I'm about to say. Thanks you can really be a good friend Blackstar :)
Blackstar: It still sounds like sarcasm -_-
Maka: It isn't!
Blackstar: Is it bad if I want to say something after all that has happened to you?
Maka: What do you want to tell me?
Blackstar: I….MEET ME IN FRONT OF SHIBUSEN ACADEMY! RIGHT NOW!
Maka: Now? Can't it wait till tomorrow?
Blackstar: NO! THIS IS TOO IMPORTANT TO SAY ON THE PHONE! BYE!
What is Blackstar thinking? I brush my face expecting tears but my face was completely tearless. Had Blackstar just cheered me up without me even noticing? I slowly got up from the floor and I opened the door a crack. Soul was nowhere in sight. I made my way to the door and put my shoes on.
"You know you don't have to act like a thief sneaking out of your own house, and also why were you laughing so love struck? Did you finally find a guy to get over Soul?" Blair asks from behind me.
"I got to go," I said as I ran out the door avoiding Blair's questions. I ran all the way to Shibusen academy, and there on the first step stood Blackstar.
"Why did you tell me was so important that you needed to tell me in person," I ask. Blackstar stares at me.
"I knew it you were crying," Blackstar says as he walks in front of me, and touches my bags that were under my eyes. I was shocked. Blackstar is actually showing concern toward me. "Let it out."
My eyes started to water, and before I knew it I was crying on Blackstar's shoulder. "I-I'm s-stupid! W-Why a-after all these years of knowing what his answer was, why couldn't I ever give up on him?"
"You never had a real reason to give up," Blackstar says in gentle tone. Minutes later my tears went away.
"Thanks," I said with a small smile. "Where you actually going to tell me something or did you use that as a reason to comfort me?"
"I was going to tell you something," Blackstar says with a grin on his face.
"What is it?" I ask interested.
"This is what I was going to say," Blackstar says as he gives me a quick peck on the lips and walks away. What was that? I felt my heart beat go overboard.
"DO YOU BLACKSTAR ACTUALLY LIKE ME?" I yell after him.
"MAYBE I DO!" I heard Blackstar yell back. I felt a real smile appear in my lips. Life may not be so simple, but what happens when you go over the difficult situations is what one really looks forward to. It also looks like me life might just get better.
Thanks for all that have read my story. Hope you enjoyed! :)
