Soul Eater
-Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater.
*Alright, so it is confusing. So if you're reading this... I'm answering the questions that was asked in the reviews for chapter 14. Okay, who called the principal? I didn't revealed who it was. But it is a girl, of course. And yes, Maka WILL be happy in the upcoming chapters. Don't worry, this is just the turning point of the story. Read and Review! ^_^
If I Were A Boy
Maka didn't bothered talking to anyone. She scowled to everyone who passed her way. Clenched teeth, finger tips digging in her palm, breathe hazy and a serious rage popping in her veins. She's been holding her anger for a moment. Because she's having a bad luck. About how her iron won't work. How her food burned. It was a normal bad luck but it was all in one morning. And she was about to approach their classroom, when suddenly she heard what was inside.
"What are you damn talking about?! I didn't cheat!" Maka narrowed her eyes on what she heard. And the voice, she realized who it was that she hurriedly opened the door. Everyone's eyes were glued towards her, their biology teacher standing in front of Black Star. Holding a piece of paper in hand while a few classmates were circling them.
"What is this all about?" Maka asked, not aware of the situation.
"Maka, thank goodness... You're finally here! Will you tell this minion that the god never cheated in biology!" Black Star walked towards her while pointing his finger accusingly towards the teacher. The teacher smashed the desk with his hand for attention that everyone turned silent.
"Stein, this must be a misunderstanding. I mean, Black Star may be stupid-"
"HEY!"
"But, he never cheats in a test!" Maka said defensively. Stein smirked back in reply, settling the white piece of paper on Black Star's desk.
"Maka, come take a look" Maka hesitated at first, but soon followed. Her eyes widened in shock, the answers for the test were all in the paper. All written in a messy hand writing, Black Star's hand writing. But Maka knew better, she knew that Black Star will never do such a thing.
"Black Star, didn't cheat!" This time, her voice was rising higher. In time for everyone to whisper and mumble rumors about Maka that soon will be passed to the whole school.
"Maka... Stop being so bias. That is Black Star's hand writing, isn't it? Therefore, its his. And someone reported that he cheated" Maka's eyes glinted in accuse. She knew one person who would involve everyone just to ruin her already miserable life. Her olive green eyes settled on Blair behind her, smirking in anticipation. Maka walked up towards her.
"You, insensitive and desperate little bitch!" Maka was about to hit Blair with a slap when someone held her back. Two of her classmates. But the other was Soul, which she soon realized.
"I know you'll do such a thing. You're just too desperate for someone who doesn't even like you! What is wrong with you!" Maka asked with a raging tantrum.
"Maka, stop it!" Soul tried to reason out. Maka stopped struggling from his grip, she stared at him dead in the eyes. She doesn't know anymore. If Soul really cares for her or not. "Fine, protect your girlfriend... She's not even there often when you were in a coma" She mumbled silently for only him to hear.
"And you! You selfish bitch! What could you possibly gain from this?!" Blair settled with a smirk. She blew her finger nails before walking towards Maka. Assuring Soul to stop her from struggling.
"As much as I can say it, Maka darling... I didn't do it. I could have done it. If... I thought of it before, but I didn't" Maka couldn't believe it. Who would do such a thing? Instead of Blair? Maka didn't believed her bluffing face and fake laughter. She knew it was her.
"Blair, just admit it. You're just too fake to admit that you framed Black Star for this" Blair this time glared at Maka. With the same rage popping in her veins. She crossed her arms. She was ready to retort a feedback.
"Fine, go... Believe what you want. But this is what I can tell you... People here might think you're such a good person but... What if there's someone or other people who thinks you're just another bitch" Maka gritted her teeth, ready to strike a punch when Soul stopped her once again.
"Alright! Alright! Soul! Blair! Maka! Detention now! I don't want that kind of language in my classroom! And whatever it is you're fighting at, deal with it outside the school!" They all stopped struggling, but they remained their sharp glares with each other. Walking towards their teacher's desk to get three detention slips and walking over to Ms. Marie's room.
Maka was a bit curious that Kid didn't go to school but that wasn't the issue. She was sitting beside Blair who kept flirting with Soul to rub it in her face. And she's struggling her best to stop herself from hitting her. She tried her best concentrating on her book entitled 'Life of Pi'.
"Soul, if I follow you home... Will you keep me?" She said in a very slow and seductive voice but Soul only shrugged her circling finger around his chest. Maka couldn't take it anymore, Blair has been flirting with him for more than thirty minutes.
"Blair, could you just stop for a minute or two? I can't focus in my book" Blair scoffed and cackled a laughter.
"Why? You jealous?"
"No, actually... I like the sound of a needy bitch struggling to flirt" Maka swore she saw Soul snicker a small laughter of agreement. That she just hid her smile in her book. But then again, she remembered how she's dating Kid and how Soul is dating Blair. 'I love you' That was the phrase that was stuck in her head. She never forgot how he said it since he keeps on reminding her.
Before Blair could retort a response, Ms. Marie entered the room with a stack of papers in her hands. Greeting them a small morning. They all sat down as Ms. Marie settled the huge stack of papers beside her. "So... What happened here?"
"This girl framed Black Star for cheating-"
"She's lying and she doesn't have proof-"
"I don't know how I got in detention-"
"Alright! The three of you... Stop talking. I want to talk to you. One by one with your story. So I'll talk first with Blair outside" Ms. Marie motioned for Blair to go outside as Ms. Marie followed. When the door clicked close, they were dead silent in their seats. They didn't spoke a word and Maka couldn't even turn her direction towards his. He was just there, tapping his fingers on the desk for about a few minutes.
"How are you and Kid?" Soul was actually struggling to ask that question that his throat was dry after questioning. It was silent at first, before Maka could finally turn her head and look at him.
"We're fine... How about you and Blair?" Maka felt the same way. And she hoped the struggle wasn't obvious in her voice. Soul lowered his eyes, he wasn't enjoying Blair's often flirting and kissing and whatever. He was enjoying what Maka and him had before.
"We're fine-"
"Don't say that you're fine with her if you're not" Maka moved closer with a cautious warning in her eyes. As if she's threatening him to stop believing that he is fine with her.
"Okay, let me ask you the question again... How are you and Kid?" This time, his voice was sharper than before. Emphasizing the question more. Soul moved closer when he asked his question, that he didn't realized that their foreheads were already touching. Maka lowered her eyes with guilt.
"No... We're not" Maka finally settled her eyes towards his. And Soul finally realized how close they were. Soul stared in her lips. How nervously it quivered. How he wanted to kiss her. But he knew he'll regret it soon that things may fall apart sooner for them. Maka moved away from him and so did Soul.
The door clicked open and Blair sat down on her seat. Maka walked outside with Ms. Marie and they both started walking slowly and randomly. "Okay, let's start with your story"
"Okay... Ms. Marie, I was having a bad luck before school. I burned my breakfast, my iron won't work, my hair was very frizzy that I spent an hour in shower... Some stuff like that. And when I entered the classroom, Black Star was accused of cheating in a history test. But I know him better, he wouldn't cheat. And Stein-er... I mean, the teacher told me that someone reported that he cheated and even the hand writing was the same. And I still believed he didn't. And I remembered one person who hates me and would dare involve anyone close to me. Blair did it. That was when we started fighting and the teacher called us to detention" They strolled for a while before Ms. Marie spoke.
"Well, Blair told me she didn't. That you were just accusing her. And how did Soul got involved?"
"She's-she's lying. I mean... She's the only person who would do such a thing. And Soul? He was only stopping me from hitting Blair"
"Maka... You have to stop acting so violent. You're causing yourself in trouble. And... We don't know for sure if Blair did it. And if she did, I assure you... She'll be in trouble. If we have proof. Now... Let's get back to the office and I'll talk to Soul" What she hated about getting back to the office was she's going to stay with Blair for a short while. Listening to whatever she's retorting.
And she was never wrong with guessing, she felt horrible listening towards her retorts. Soul and Ms. Marie were gone for about two minutes and Blair was talking twice as everyone she knew. "How could you accuse me? You know if I did, I always appear to tell you a warning. And I didn't. Are you stupid or something?"
"Will you just shut the fuck up. Don't you get tired of yourself?" Maka tried to sort as calm as possible. Without getting angry, without thinking of slapping her face without someone around them, in an empty room. Blair sighed in annoyance while crossing her arms.
"I'm just saying that you're a messed up bitch, Maka" Once again, Maka mentally counted from one to ten to remain compose without Blair's voice stuck in her head.
"Blair, why do you hate me so much? Huh? I never stole Soul from you. See? You're still dating him! I'm dating Kid! Aren't you happy that you're with him now?" Blair was finally silent for a moment. Maka never knew that talking about this could shut her hole. She regretted that she didn't thought of it sooner.
"Because HE likes you. It is very obvious, you dumb fuck. And I always ask myself... Is there something wrong with me? What do you have that I don't? I want to gain him, Maka. Not because I'm a creepy girlfriend"
"Wow, Blair... I never knew that-"
"That what? That I'm desperate?"
"No... That there's more in that bratty attitude"
"Whatever" Maka rolled her eyes. They both waited for the two to come back. Both Maka and Blair hated each other, why would they be left behind in one room? And... The weirder part was, they're not cat fighting. They stayed quiet in their places. And Maka guessed that detention is the same. She gets to read her book while Blair struggles in her attempts in flirting. Maka knew Soul that he isn't into flirting that much, he likes regular girls talking. And she was right that it was the same, she even finished her book.
And she's on her way towards Kid's house. She's been thinking. She doesn't need to lie to herself. She knew she's stuck with the wrong person. Kid is a great guy, a perfect one. But he isn't Soul. Soul who isn't serious all the time. Soul who likes calling her Assface. Kid was far too different to reach Soul. Kid was very perfect and a gentleman. And that was when she settled her mind for a decision. She knew she'll make the right choice.
After a few minutes of walking, she finally reached his house. Opening his gate, she knocked a few times. But there was no answer. Instead, the door was open. She slowly crept inside, when she heard various moans and groans. A girl and a boy's.
'Ah... Ah... K-kid, tell me'
'Uh... I-I love you' Maka was not surprised to see Kid doing it with Misa from behind in the kitchen. With Misa's boobs jiggling and Kid moving faster than ever. She stared down at them, she wasn't even mad. She has a reason and she felt relieved. So instead of just... Watching live porn she decided to stagger in front of them.
"Well, glad to watch live porn in the kitchen" Maka smirked very simple. Settling her stuff on the counter in front of the two wide-eyed betrayers. They immediately clothed themselves.
"Maka, it was just sex" Misa started. This time Maka laughed very contagiously. Her laughter echoing towards the walls surrounding them.
"Yeah, maybe. I thought you were a very sweet barista chic, you're a wild ride, huh?"
"Maka... I can explain. She-she told me that if I did it with her, she'll leave us for sure"
"Well, why would you let her leave? You both look perfect together. Especially with the hair down there from the both of you. Go fuck yourselves. That's right, I will leave because I can't watch live porn. Your live porn. It's too disgusting"
Misa was about to walk away, when she remembered something. "So, Black Star cheated in a test, huh?" Maka's smirk was wiped off on her face, it was soon replaced by a glare.
"You! You did it?! Blair! Blair wasn't lying at all!" Kid was lost with what was happening. "Wait, what do you mean?" They both ignored Kid and this time... Misa smirked on what she knows.
"Crazy isn't it? I guess the plan worked. First, I outsmarted you that I'm a sweet and an innocent barista chic? Wrong! Second, you believed that another bitch did my plan. And third, you saw us doing it in the kitchen how does that make you feel?"
"Are you fucking crazy? I felt stupid. After completely accusing Blair? She's-she's out of this. But... I was't surprised with you riding Kid. But, why are you doing this?"
"Because you're taking Kid away from me. Before you came here, I have no idea where he lived. I was getting back with him, but he moved. So... A friend told me he's with you. And now, this"
"Whatever, fine. Take him if you want. I don't care. You just want him right? Okay... Take him with you in Russia or something" Kid snapped his head towards Maka. His eyes begging pleadingly. But she wasn't convinced. She needed to tell him. "Kid, there is also a reason why I came here. I'm breaking up with you. So, it is okay if you go now and continue what you're doing. I won't bother" He remained on his position, staring off to space.
"And, go on and continue your... Your live porn presentation. But next time, don't show your ass. Disgusting" Maka walked away with a light feeling in her chest. She doesn't feel the heaviness in her chest and brain. She's free. She doesn't need to learn in loving him.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"She screamed in the middle of the road. That was then she knew she was free.
