Here I am! I was listening to 'Ass Back Home' by Gymclass Heroes ft. Neon Hitch and decided that it would be a good theme for a love~angst story! So here it is!

Back Home

"Hey."

"...Soul?"

"Yeah."

"...you...you don't call for half a year and suddenly you're at my door?" Maka's voice rose higher with each word, finally coming to a screech.

"I'm...sorry...I just...well it's complicated." Soul had run through the many things he wanted to say to Maka when they finally reunited, but his voice had disappeared the moment he set his eyes on her. She had grown taller and was now just a few inches shorter than him. Now she had a curvy figure, and combined with her already-long legs, she had a figure to make any guy stare. Her hair had also grown and it waved down past her shoulders. On top of all that her eyes became sharper and more piercing so it was as if they could stare straight into your soul (in a way, they could). To put it simply, she looked beautiful.

"C- come in." Maka moved as if he was seeing things in a dream; her brain hadn't fully processed that her former partner was standing right in front of her. He had gotten slightly buffer, muscles poking out from under his short sleeves shirt. He no longer wore the constricting headband so his hair was even wilder, if that was even possible. His face had grown chiseled and his eyes were darker, almost to a deep, dark burgundy. He had grown from a cute guy to a handsome man.

He had been reassigned to Oceania, because Marie had left her post to teach at the DWMA. She learned to hone her weapon genes and went on solitary missions. They hadn't seen each other in a year. He had stopped calling after half the year.

What she didn't know that he had encountered a particularly difficult Kishin-egg. If he had called her then she might have been in danger. Even now he was still protecting her.

"So...what's up?" Soul started, trying to fill in the extremely awkward and heavy silence.

'SLAP!'

Soul clutched his stinging cheek in shock.

"You...you jerk. After all this time...I had built a wall...to keep myself from falling into despair..." Maka started sobbing, "And suddenly...you just pop out of nowhere and crumble my wall...it's not fair...I just- I just-" She dissolved into tears.

Soul hesitated, and then swept her into his arms. She resisted for a split second but melted into his embrace.

"I missed you, too, Maka. I missed you, too."

Originally this would have been way longer but I thought that since this was just a drabble this would be a good place to stop.
