Maybe Dreams Can Come True
Chapter 4
~Maka's POV.~
'It's been a week since Soul has saved me from the guy who was raping me, gave me a home and friends I could trust. I never knew I could be so happy. Never had I thought that I would have friends ever again. But thanks to Soul I have friends and a home.
But right now I'm thinking of the holiday that I hate the most.' "Christmas…" maka says in a sad/angry tone. 'Is coming up and I have NEVER had a good christmas. I think i hate it more then valentines day. Christmas has always been so horrible for me. With my parents fighting, and my father abusing abusing me. I can't even read the book that I have in front of my face because christmas is all I'm thinking about.' *sigh
~Souls POV.~
'Maka has been acting more depressed then usual. Ever since the mention of christmas she's been acting weird. She's not eating alot and she just stares off into space. Every time one of our friends mention christmas she gets worse. I have to know what's going on with her.'
~No Ones POV.~
"Hey,Maka?"
"Yeah, Soul?
"I wanna know what's going on with you. You seem depressed, more then usual. I want to know why everytime someone mentions Christmas you get more depressed. You haven't been eating alot lately. Please tell me why?" Soul pleaded with a worried look as well as a worried tone.
"It's because…because…"
Maka starts to lightly sob as she thinks about her horrible past Christmases. Soul pulls Maka into a hug as soon as he heard he first sob.
"Maka, you don't have to tell me if its to painful to tell me."
"B-but I want t-to tell y-you." Maka says through sobs.
"Okay Maka if you want to tell me or not it's okay with me. I'm not going to push you to tell me."
After a couple seconds Maka stops sobbing and wipes the tears out of her eyes. She takes a deep breath and starts talking.
"The reason I get to upset when someone mentions Christmas is because I haven't had a good history of Christmases. Most of my Christmases have been me stuck listening to my mother and father scream at each other. Once my mother left us after she got feed up with my fathers cheating, we didn't celebrate christmas. He just spent those nights out getting drunk,beating me, or fucking women ALL NIGHT LONG. It was the same thing every christmas. It got worse after my mother died. I just gave up on having a good christmas all it did was leave me crying in my room. Its the same with all holidays even my birthday." Maka started crying again. Soul took Maka into a very tight hug as she cried into his chest, soaking his orange shirt in tears.
"Maka I'm so sorry. I had know idea that your Christmases were
horrible."
"I-It's not y-your fault t-that they
w-were bad."
Soul sat on the couch comforting Maka as she cried into his chest.
After a while Maka cried herself to sleep on Souls chest. Soul got up off the couch making sure not to wake Maka. Soul walked over to his room and called Black*Star and Tsubaki, Kid,Liz and Patty.
~Maka's Dream~
All Maka could dream about were flash backs of all of her Christmases.
~FLASH BACK~
4 year old Maka sat on the couch watching her mother and father yell at each other.
"WHY THE HELL DID YOU HAVE YOUR ARM WRAPPED AROUND THAT WOMEN'S SHOULDERS WHEN I WASN'T LOOKING!?"
"I DIDN'T HAVE MY ARMS ROUND HER!"
"YES YOU DID! STOP LIEING TO ME!"
"IM NOT LIEING!"
"YES YOU ARE!"
"NO IM NOT!"
"WHY CAN'T YOU JUST TELL ME THE TRUTH?!"
"BECAUSE I AM TELLING YOU THE TRUTH!"
They're fighting usually ends up with Maka's mother walking out of the house and takig a drive somewhere to cool off, while her father goes off to a bar to cheat on her mother some more. Maka is left sitting on the couch crying because something that was supposed to be a happy but, turned into sad and lonely.
~time skip~
Many years passed and Maka's mother had died and the abusing had gotten worse. Her father was never home on Christmases just at night before he fucked some slut that he brought home and kicked her around a couple times. Leaving her in a corner bleeding,crying, and lonely.
~END OF DREAM FLASH BACK~
Maka just wished she could enjoy Christmas like everyone else.
~Souls POV.~
I called up Black*Star and Tsubaki,Kid ,Liz and Patty. I have to tell them about my plan.
Black*Star:"THIS IS YOUR GOD SPEAKING! YAAAHHHOOO!"
Soul:"Black*Star! Stop screaming!"
Black*Star:"OH HI SOUL! What do you need?"
Soul:"Ya know how Maka's been acting weird whenever someone mentions christmas?"
Black*Star:"Yeah,Why?"
Soul:"Well, it's because she's never had a good christmas. It's always been her parents fighting and once her mother left her father started abusing Maka. Once her mother died her father abused her even more and they didn't celebrate christmas. He brought whores home everynight and had sex with them. She was stuck in her room hearing that. It's the same with her birthday and other holidays."
Black*Star:"WHAT!? I GOD LIKE ME THINKS THAT'S UNEXCEPTABLE!"
Soul:"Yeah I agree."
Black*Star:"So what do you suppose we do?"
Soul:"I've got a plan, we are going to have the best Christmas party. With you,Tsubaki,Kid,Liz,Patty and I. It's going to be a surprise."
Black*Star: "Awesome, what do want us to do?"
Soul:"Well, since Tsubaki is a awesome cook I think that she should help with the food for the party. And you will help me with the party decorations when I get Liz,Patty,and Tsubaki to get Maka out of the house for a couple hours as you,Kid and I get the party ready."
Black*Star:"Okay, is there anything else I need to know?"
Soul:"Yeah, when you and Tsubaki come over that day don't bring the food or party decorations. I don't want Maka to figure out the surprise. Once the girls leave you can run back home and get everything for the party."
Black*Star:"Alright, I'll tell Tsubaki."
Soul:"Okay, well I got to go. I'm going to call up Kid,Liz,and Patty to tell them about the party."
Black*Star:"Okay, bye."
Soul:"Bye."
After Soul said goodbye to Black*Star he called up Kid,Liz,and Patty to tell them about the surprise party.
~No Ones POV.~
After Soul finished telling his friends about the surprise Christmas party for Maka he walked out of his room to see Maka crying. Soul walked over to her and sat down on the couch. "Maka what's wrong?"
"Bad dream…" Maka says quietly.
"What was it about?"
"My past Christmases, my parents fighting, my mother leaving and my father abusing me than fucking women."
Soul stays silent and comforts Maka with a hug.
As Maka cried Soul thought to himself. 'I promise Maka you will have the best Christmas ever. I promise I will.'
After awhile the Silences was broken. Maka's stomach grumbled loudly making Soul chuckle.
"I think someone's hungry."
"Yeah,I guess I am."
"Alright, is cupped noodles fine with you?"
"Yeah."
Soul got up off the couch and went to the kitchen to make the cupped noodles.
Soul finished making cupped noodles he brought his Maka's noodles over to the couch. He gave Maka hers and than sat down on the couch turned on the tv and propped his feet up on the coffee table. They both watched tv and ate their dinner in peace.
1 hour later…
~Souls POV.~
Maka had fallen asleep against my shoulder alittle bit after she finished eating. I picked Maka up off the couch bridle style and brought her to her room. I laid her down on her bed and pulled the blanket over her body. I walked out of her bedroom closing the door behind me and walked back into the living room to clean up the mess from dinner.
After I finished cleaning up the mess from dinner I walked over to my room and got ready for bed.
'Tomorrow I have to go find Maka the prefect gift'
I thought to myself before falling asleep.
