Soul Eater
-Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater.
*Hey guys! Please do pray for me that, I'd pass the exams in second trimester. I'm really hoping, it would really help. Plus, don't worry. I'm keeping my word that this is a SoulXMaka fan fiction, I'm just mixing it up with Kid so that other people who likes Kid won't get disappointed. ^.~. I'm also sorry for using terms that can offend you or some of you. I didn't know it could affect as much, I just red it in a book. So, okay... Please do tell me if I need to rewrite the story. ^_^.
If I Were A Boy
It was cold. A rather bad cold for her and bad warmth for her, since the sun rays eventually deflected towards her by the window. She covered herself with the comforter and her head still hurts. She feels like throwing up everything she ate if she could, but her head was killing her. Also, the smell of the comforter. It was different, it smelled fresh from the laundry. Too fresh and she haven't even changed her bed covers.
"What. The. Fuck?" She asked in between breathes as she stared down her body. She immediately sat up, her eyes tore open that she fully regretted sitting up too straightforward. "Where am I?" Asked herself. Maka held a hand over her throbbing head as she looked around.
The room was very clean and organized, the room was too fresh for her taste and everything was perfect. But what happened to her clothes? She had thoughts, horrible ones. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" She yelled on top of her lungs as she hugged herself with her arms. She scanned the whole area, if she was being kidnapped, no one would serve her like this.
But before she could slid down on the bed, the door clicked open and she immediately snapped her head to see who it was. "Maka, finally... You're awake. I've been so worried about-OW!" Maka smacked Kid on the face that he suddenly stopped himself from talking.
"Kid, why'd you bring me here?! I'm supposed to be at home or did you invited me here?" She wondered. Kid stared at her for a while, he figured she totally forgot what had happened yesterday. "Do you have any idea what happened yesterday?" Suddenly, Maka stopped talking. She stared at Kid, trying to recover her memories.
"Figured, you were so drunk that you forgot what happened" She knitted her eye brows together. Her? Drunk?
"Drunk?" Kid nodded in a way as he sat in front of Maka on the bed. Finally a part of her memory remembered the name Arachne, the hooker downtown. Her eyes widened in realization, she did went inside a club full of drunken men and women like her.
"Anyways, you want some breakfast? Just go down stairs if you feel like eating" Kid stood up, giving Maka a pat on the head. Before turning on his heel and opening the door. "And Maka, your clothes are in the laundry. You threw up on your own clothes last night" Her cheeks turned from one color to another.
"Wait! D-did you changed my clothes?" She asked. Her pink cheeks were turning darker and darker, as Kid turned around with the same paleness and red on his face. "Yes... I did. D-don't worry, I didn't removed your undergarments. I-I just washed you with a face towel"
"PERVERT!" She threw a pillow on his face and she covered herself entirely with the comforter. Forcing her eyes shut, she heard the door click close. She sat back up again and scoffed in response. "Stupid" she muttered. She stood up from the bed and soon, her body faced a huge mirror. His oversized sweater clang upon her small body frame.
That's when she realized how small she looked and how built Kid is. She removed the clip on her hair and remained it messy.
The oil sizzled in the pan as Kid started humming his favorite song, 'New Divide' by Linkin Park. He settled a plate on the counter behind him before turning back to place her breakfast. Kid was very glad that Maka was here, the fact that he's all alone since his father went to a business trip.
Then again, he couldn't stop thinking about her. Her silent self when she's asleep, he just wanted to cuddle her. Her pink and full lips that seemed natural. Her carved nose that's always in the right place. Her evergreen eyes. Her sandy blonde hair. Everything. He couldn't forget how naive she is. And how interesting it was.
"Ooops" Maka said suddenly behind him, when she hits Kid by the head with a small paper ball. Kid turned around with a gleeful smile. And the thing that was separating them was the counter, Kid settled her breakfast on the plate and bowed.
"Breakfast?" She tapped her fingers on the counter as Kid walked back and forth and Maka watched how he knew where everything was. The cup, the water, the powder juice. Everything. And for a guy, Maka didn't know a guy can cook without burning the food.
"I'm not hungry" She turned her gaze away and Kid sarcastically sighed. "Suppose" But within seconds, her stomach growled in hunger. "NOT, so I suggest... You eat" He smiled back before settling her orange juice beside her plate. She eventually gave in when Kid turned around to wash the dishes.
"Not bad" Maka commented, before chewing a piece of bacon. Kid chuckled at first before speaking. "I'll take that as a compliment"
"Do you always do this?" asked Maka. Kid half-turned towards her.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean is... Do you always wash the dishes or cook breakfast or something?" She said while eating.
"Well, the thing is... My father isn't always here. So I'm forced to do everything since we don't want a maid. Why'd you ask?" After washing the dishes, Kid sat on a stool in front of Maka while she continued eating her breakfast. "Well, I never really thought that guys can do chores or something"
"I hate that stereotype. It's like saying, girls are always in the kitchen" Soon, Maka jabbed her elbow on Kid's hand and he immediately shrugged his hand off the counter. "Owwwww... See, you also hate that. Let's not be sexist. Anyways, what do you want to do?"
"Sou-" Kid cuts her off with a hand signal. "Well, let's not go there for a while. Not that I'm being too against it, but remember what the guy told you" Maka's gaze lowered on the ground, looking as worried as before. And Kid doesn't know what he can do. All he did was stare at her until she realized how dumb she looked.
"Y-you're right, I guess"
"Okay, so! How about we go somewhere fun?" She turned her gaze back at him and started eating once again. He just thought of somewhere fun. A fun place for everyone. By means everyone, even a child can enjoy. Maybe she CAN forget all her problems. For once.
"Okay, I'll go take a shower. And uh... Hmmm, my mother stacked her old clothes in the other room but well-she can't wear any since she's gone. So... yeah, you can use hers" So, he went upstairs and walked up to his room. And Maka remained on the counter, eating her last bites of food.
With no choice to use, she chose to wear a green dress shirt that goes with a black pair of pants. Kid went down stairs, buttoning down his white shirt as he approached Maka waiting for him on the couch. "Wow, Maka... My mom's clothes looks really good on you" She smiled anyway as they left the house and drove off.
"Where are we going anyway?"
"Hmm, it's a surprise. So, I think you shouldn't ask" She just grumbled under her breathe before they drove to the destination. A few minutes later, they finally arrived and Maka didn't actually know the place. "Where are we?"
"Seriously? You've never went to an amusement park before?" She shrugged her shoulders while Kid sighed. She really needs to go out more. That's what he thought. She's never been in an amusement park while thirteen or even ten years olds know how to have fun from time to time in the park.
"Well, you're gonna have the time of your life" Kid said before pushing his car door open and opening Maka's. As, they started walking, Maka looked around. The place was very colorful, with huge food stands, mascots and souvenirs. At first, she thought it was just something to look around but soon, when she heard a wave of screams, her gaze lifted towards tall and huge rides.
"What do you think?" Kid asked for a feedback, she didn't answered. She only watched as the shuttle started moving into loops and slopes. Her mouth slightly gaped open. "Let's go" He chuckled as he pulled her hand with him. They first went to soft rides, where Maka laughed and laughed and Kid was aware of that. But soon, Maka stared towards a free-fall ride. "Wanna try?" He asked.
"N-no way. That thing is freakin' scary!" She yelled in exaggeration, Kid chuckled in response and turned his gaze towards her. "Come on, I'll be there" He offered his hand. Finally, Maka stocked all of her problems in the corner of her brain. She didn't mentioned his name. Not even once. And Kid was right, she needs to have fun from time to time.
Maka stared at it, at first. But soon, gave in and took his hand. Maka trusted him either way. He was there from time to time and she appreciates that. "A-are you sure this thing is safe?" She was shaking from fear and they were getting higher from a second to another. Kid placed his hand on top of hers as an assurance. She stopped worrying and just looked down. The people below them looked like ants, they were so tiny and they were far too high. The ride made a cringe of noise. "Oh no" She muttered, before the fall flashed down so fast that she didn't know if she screamed or not. But as soon as the ride ended, she exhaled a long breathe before laughing. And Kid joined in.
"That. Was. Fun!" She yelled as they ran around through different tides. Water slides, free-falls, shuttles, roller coasters and Maka realized how she's missing all the fun she could have and now, Kid shared it with her. She realized how relieving it was to scream freely without people getting annoyed or at least a lot of people not getting annoyed.
When they finally got tired, they walked into an ice cream diner. They were laughing around and making jokes with each other. "Your face was so funny" Kid started as they continued laughing.
"Hello, what do you like to order?" The girl on the counter asked. Maka scanned the whole menu in front of her. "Hmmm, I'd like some strawberry milk shake" The girl nodded and then listed her order.
"How about you, sir?" she asked.
"Well, I'll have the chocolate sundae" The girl nodded once again as they settled on a table with the window beside them. They both sat on the opposite direction as they started talking and talking. Until Maka, noticed a shooting game by the window.
"Hey Kid, do you think we can get that panda stuff toy?" She pointed her index finger towards the panda hanging on the stand and he was challenged. "Sure we can" As their orders came in they started eating. "My goodness, it's like I'm french kissing a strawberry. This is so good" Kid laughed at her joke and he started eating his.
"Maka, you know... Smiling makes you more fun" She made a funny face before thanking him. "I'm serious. And you know, I always come here alone, guess I never figured to bring anyone. And now, guess I was wrong. It is fun to be with someone" Her eyes gazed on his, she couldn't read what was in it. Maybe mixed.
But as soon as they finished, Maka pulled him towards the stand as they watched a boy pulled out a gun and then started shooting. The bottles were all moving and there was only one bottle with a mark that you should hit. But as soon as he started shooting, he didn't win.
"Aww, too bad for you, my son. Better luck next time. And what about you? You want to try and win?" The one-toothed guy asked as Kid smirked and payed him three shots of bullets. "Here" He handed the gun towards Maka as she fired the first shot that hit the cornered bottle and forced her eyes closed when she heard the bang of the gun.
Kid stood behind Maka, his breathe tickling her right ear. "You should relax your arms and point your target" He placed both his hands on her extended hands as he tried to point a target. "All you need is timing and try not to close your eyes" Her cheeks reddened as he released his hold and she shot the second bullet. The bullet hit the bottle below the actual target and she still had her eyes closed.
"Okay, just... relax your arms without shaking" He asked as he positioned her extended arms. "And, no need to close your eyes. The bullet won't hurt you. And if it did, I won't forgive myself for being a bad teacher" Maka's cheeks flashed the tint of pink as she glanced on his eyes. That were directly staring back at hers, she could feel his breathe in her own lips, his nose brushing hers. And without even looking, she shot the third bullet as it hit the target.
They both didn't care if they shot it or not, Maka didn't know if this was it but when his lips brushed against her, the feeling of her bones turning jelly was getting into her as she grasped on his shoulders and closed her eyes. They kissed again, this time she's not even feeling any jelly-like whatever, this was it. But soon when they both pulled away, they stared at each other for a while. As Maka remembered him.
'W-what was that? I-I love Soul! But-but... I know he won't do the same and Kid... He's-he's everything I could ask for and I feel really happy. What's happening to me? What am I feeling for Kid?' She asked herself.
