CHAPTER TWO: Weather is a mood killer
"Soul! Where have you been all night?!" Maka ran to me as I entered the warm house. She looked so worried I felt terrible, but those fan girls were completely nuts! "Also, pap wants to go to dinner wednesday, I don't know why though" She still hugged me.
"Sorry I was gone all night, I went to pick up the orange juice and say hi to Lord Death and I was ambushed by paparazzi and crazy fangirls! They were all like: MARRY ME SOUL! OH I LOVE YOU YOU'RE SO SEXY!" I made duck faces to match each of those stupid girls faces when they saw me. "And then one went fucking crazy and chased me on my motorcycle and they all followed! I didn't come back till they were gone, seeing as you don't like all the paparazzi and attention from those magazines" I explained hoping she wasn't too worried, last time I made her worry like that she chopped me way too many times...I have the scar on my head to prove it.
"Even being chased by fangirls you think about me, I love you" She nuzzled my neck. Suddenly as if on cue the door swung open smashing me on the wall, Maka jumped out of the way.
"Blair is home! Blair saw Soul-Kun running from crazy ladies last night! They tried to steal his jacket!" Blair announced upon smashing me in the door. As if no more stupid stuff could happen, Blackstar began singing.
"SOULS GONNA MARRY MAKA SOLS GONNA MARRY MAKA! HAHA!" Even though I was smashed in the wall I quickly ran out the door to Blackstar's apartment.
"Blackstar! Shut the fuck up! Maka can hear you! We live next door dumbass!" I hissed opening his door, I didn't care if I was intruding or not! He knew I didn't want Maka to know!
"Oh hai Soul what's wrong?" He gave a dumb look. I wanted to kick his ass right then and their. Till I saw Tsubaki, she greeted me with a smile and calmed me down a bit.
"You're what's wrong!" I snapped. He was still stupid as ever. "Maka is right next door! Remember we're neighbors!? I don't want her to know of the big surprise!" Blair walked up behind me to see what I was up to.
"Why is Soul-Kun cursing out Blackstar?" She asked sticking her cleavage in my face.
"Bl-Blair!" I hissed. "Im yelling at him cause hes gonna give away Maka's surprise!"
"Blair wants to know the surprise!" She jumped up and down, making me nauseous.
"I'll tell you if you stop suffocating me in your boobs!" I pushed her away for the third time.
"Blair promises!" she took a step back.
"Okay, I'm gonna propose to Maka and Blackstar is gonna end up somehow telling her!" Finally Blair stopped and started making happy noises. I backed away into the apartment (Mine not Blackstar's) The home was cozy and nice so I sat on the couch to enjoy the nice saturday.
"Are we still going to that new restaurant tonight?" Maka opened a book and sat next to me. I almost forgot to ask about thursday and to prepare everything.
"Shit!" I whispered. "Yes! Also I wanted to ask if you would join me in a very special dinner thursday night?" I hoped I could buy a decent ring cause I haven't bought one yet.
"Of course! But why is it so special?" Maka asked not taking her eyes off the book.
"I have a surprise for you, thats why!" I also did not take my eyes off the tv.
"Blair wants to help Maka-Chan get ready for thursday! And Soul-Kun's surprise!" Blair ran to the couch snatching Maka's book.
The day flew by boring and warm, before our date was to happen I told Maka I had to run an errand. The wind flew through my hair as I went to the custom jewelers. I hoped to get or make a very unique ring for Maka, she deserved the best.
"Hello sir how may I help you? Today we have a deal on custom rings and necklaces!" A very bubbly well dressed man greeted me upon walking in.
"Well, I want a unique engagement ring" I looked in the glass cases explaining to the an what I wanted.
"If its something personal you want, we have custom sterling silver rings that you can color and add personal messages to! And today, all sterling silver and gold rings and necklaces are 50% off!" I finally walked over to the man to see how to choose my ring.
"Well, can you make the ring itself look like this design?" I asked turning my arm into a red and black scythe blade. I hoped it could have a piece of me and Maka in it so it would look cool with my scythe colors on it.
"Absolutely! Like this?" The man punched some buttons on an i pad and showed me a normal silver ring colored and designed to match my blade.
"Perfect! On the edges can I add some emerald color?"
"Yes!" He punched more buttons and showed me again, with the same ring base but it had emerald color around the edges. I had him add a very special message engraved in gold it said in beautiful cursive, I Love You Maka -Soul.
Riding back home the box burned in my pocket. I was so exhilarated but scared, I convinced myself not to worry one week at least till it was the day I planned. I walked in the apartment and saw Maka looking like she was ready for a mission.
"Sorry Soul, dinner will have to wait a bit, I just got a message that a new kishin appeared near DWMA!" She looked disappointed, I hoped this wouldn't be too long of a mission so we could still have lots of time to enjoy the night.
"Don't worry Maka! I'm sure we will finish it in no time! Remember, we're a freakin' lethal team!" I hugged her hoping she wouldn't feel bad.
After putting the box with the ring in a safe place, we hopped on my bike and went to the DWMA. It was chilly inside almost always was, the walls were still tall and cool. Everything was still symmetrical. Maka dragged me by the wrist to the death room where we saw Lord Death standing at his mirror.
"Hiya! Hiya! How's a goin' Maka!" Lord Death greeted us in his silly voice waving at us.
"Hello sir! Pleasure to see you again! Hello papa!" Maka smiled waving politely to the two of them.
"MAKA!" Spirit yelled clinging to Maka. "BE CAREFUL THAT BOY! DON'T LET HIM HURT YOU!" He still clung to her.
"Papa" She pushed him off "Soul would never do that! I trust him!" She looked at me with complete love shining in her eyes. "By the way papa, why did you want to change dinner to wednesday?"
"Some things came up..." He said. He would not let her go for anything until she hit him on the head with her huge book.
Walking out into the old training forest, the trees had fallen and the grass dead, it looked like it hadn't been used in years. We couldn't see a kishin but Maka gasped when she felt the pressure of it.
"Soul..." She trailed off hearing huge stomps, the only thing giving us light was a lifeless sunlight, slowly dimming, the pink light illuminated Maka's soft skin.
"Oi, hey Maka...you look really pretty in this light" I felt blood rush to my cheeks. I grabbed her hand and turned into a scythe.
"Thanks Soul" Her cheeks pink as well.
The huge kishin came in between the trees it was grey and deformed short legs and and huge long claws. Maka ran straight for it, but it slammed her back into one of the dead trees.
"Maka!"
"I'm alright!"
Standing up Maka sliced its arm, it screamed standing back up. The sun slowly continued to fade, as one of the monsters huge claws cut her arm causing blood to slowly seep out. Maka was ready to kick this things ass!
"Soul are you ready?" She asked completely focused on killing it.
"Yeah"
"Soul Resonance!" We shouted in unison matching our wavelengths. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"Witch hunter!" The blade turned into a slightly transparent huge multi colored blade.
Maka sliced the kishin down the middle and collected the soul. Maka trudged to Lord Death with blood slowly coming out of her cut. We entered the death room once again. Spirit ran up to Maka, he hugged her till she almost suffocated.
"Mission complete" I said very proudly.
"MAKA! DID HE DO THIS!? DID SOUL STOP PROTECTING YOU!? MAKA!" He screamed.
"Ugh! No papa! Soul was in weapon the whole time! Why are you suddenly freaking out about him!?" She pushed him. "MAKA CHOP!"
After being dismissed I made sure Maka was okay, she insited but she still looked not so good. At least Tsubaki invited us to her house to hang out. Perhaps she could make sure Maka was okay. Arriving at her house Blackstar began screaming.
"HELLO MY FANS IT IS I BLACKSTAR! HERE TO PROVE I AM GOD!"
"Hello Soul, Maka" Kid greeted.
"Maka-Chan! Are you okay!?" Tsubaki saw the slowly drying blood on her arm.
"Yeah I'm fine, it's very nice to see you all"
I saw Kid looking at Liz, I knew what he was thinking. I put my hands out to gesture him to go on. He quickly shook his head, it's much too obvious he was nervous. I sneered at him. He looked at liz, the moonlight lit Maka's ash blonde hair she looked so pretty I facepalmed. If I didn't tell Liz soon I would get in trouble with her very soon. Kid looked at Liz very, softly in his golden eyes. Patty stood next to her singing.
"Hey Liz?" Kid said in a very soft voice catching the attention of everyone. "I was wondering if you'd like to go out sometime?"
Everyone 'awwwed' and Liz blushed giving Kid a heartfelt hug. Then, the sky started pouring rain at massive amounts.
"Oh my, I hope nothing bad happens from this rain!" Tsubaki closed the door tight. We all sat down and went on chatting. Maka and Tsubaki went to get drinks for us.
"Soul!" Liz hissed. "Blackstar told me you have something big this thursday! Why do I not know and what is it!?"
"Geez calm down Liz! Okay, but keep quiet and you didn't know cause you weren't at Kid's house when I told them. I'm gonna propose to Maka"
Liz gasped and fell into Kid's perfectly symmetrical arms. Maka came back and the room grew silent. The rain still pounded very hard blocking out the moon, lightning struck every second. As our conversations went on when a huge crack of thunder boomed. Maka, hugged me close, I found out last rainstorm she was deathly scared of thunder. Lighting not as much. Lightning struck down and hit a tree in Tsubaki's back yard it fell breaking nearby power lines and into the roof of the house. a huge branch fell down on me and Maka, as it struck my, world went black with the faint echo of Tsubaki calling our names.
"Soul-kun! Maka-chan!"
