It's been a week since Soul and I moved in together. I hated the idea, but at least it's better than papa. I closed the curtains in the living room as I headed for the bathroom. After shutting the bathroom door and locking it, I stripped off my clothes and took the ponytails out of my hair.
I turned on the shower and stepped in. The heat felt nice. I really needed this, especially with all the stress I've had the past week. I stood under the hot steaming water for a couple of minutes until I heard a knock on the door.
"Hey, don't use all of the hot water, I need to take one too." Soul yelled. I rolled my eyes and continued. After a good twenty minutes, I stepped out of the shower, turned it off, and wrapped myself in a towel.
As I stepped out of the bathroom the steam whooshed out. I glanced down the hall at my room. His room was before mine and the door was wide open. It felt kind of awkward walking past in only a towel, but he was probably doing something else, like playing his stupid video games.
I quickly ran past his room and into mine, slamming my door closed. I stood there for a moment with my eyes shut, hoping he didn't see me. I shook my head and headed for my dresser. I opened it and grabbed a white tank-top and a pair of fuzzy-blue pajama shorts.
I looked around there room.
"Oh crap," I said biting my lip. "My slippers are still in the bathroom." I opened my door and slowly walked up to the bathroom door.
I turned the knob with a shaky hand and quietly pushed it open. There Soul was with a white towel wrapped around his waist staring into the mirror at his pointy teeth. "Umm, I uhh, I came to get my slippers." I turned my face down towards the ground hoping he couldn't see the red forming onto my cheeks.
"Well, don't just stand there like an idiot. Get them and get out." He said in his deep husky voice. I glared at him.
"You're such a bastard." I mumbled as I walked past him to grab my slippers. I felt a sharp pain in the back of my head. Soul had grabbed my hair.
He then smashed me up against the wall yelling and screaming at me telling me never to say that again. I punched him in the stomach. After I did, his towel unwrapped and fell to the floor. I quickly pushed him out of the way, snatched my slippers and ran out. Slamming the door behind me, I threw my slippers to the side of the room, shut the light off, and slipped into bed.
Just forget about it! Act like it never happened. I thought over and over again until I fell asleep. The next morning at the DWMA Lord Death had assigned Soul and I to a mission in a little town called Hinamizawa in Japan. He already get our plane tickets and the next thing we knew, we were packing our luggage to the airport.
We took our seats in the plane. I sat by the window. When I was little, I always loved sitting back the window and watch the tiny ant-like people, but I mostly loved the blue sky above and the white clouds under us. Soul took out his iPod and put his head phones on.
I glanced down at the device to see what he was listening to.
"The song is love me dead." He said. I looked up at him, his gaze met mine.
I could see the coldness in his red ruby eyes. I really hated being on his bad side, especially since we were partners. I gathered up all my strength and held out my hand.
"Truce?"
I asked. It was more like a statement than a question. He shrugged and stared at the ground not even bothering to make contact with my hand. It took all of my strength not to Maka chop him. I slumped back in my seat and shut my eyes for a nap.
The next thing I knew Soul was shaking me back and forth roughly trying to wake me up. My eyes immediately opened and I stared out the window. It was dark.
"It's time to get off."
He said standing up. I followed him off of the plane and grabbed our luggage. Soul rented a car for us to drive to the hotel. I stuffed the suitcases and bags inside the trunk and sat in the passengers seat.
Soul got in and we drove off. When we checked in and unlocked the door to our room. I stared at the bed as Soul struggled to set all the luggage down without dropping anything.
"Soul, there's only one bed."
I shouted. After he set everything down, he looked at me dumbfounded.
"You're kidding, right?" He replied. I shook my head. Great. Now I have to share a bed with this bozo.
I thought as I neatly set all my clothes in the dresser. I looked at the clock. It was 6:23 pm.
"Okay Soul, we head out around town at 11:30 pm. Got that?" I announced.
Soul just shrugged as he hung his clothes up in the closet. I decided to get some shut eye even though I got some on the plane, but I have to be ready for hunting the kishen. I lay there in bed and shut my eyes. I woke up to the sound of snoring.
I rolled over to see Soul had fallen asleep next to me. I looked over at the clock. 11:15 pm. I put my lips right up to his ear. "Soul…WAKE UP!" I shouted.
He jolted up from the bed scared as hell for a minute. Then the fear turned into anger.
"What the hell was that for?!" He yelled.
I just giggled as I slipped my black jacket on.
"You ready to go?" I asked. He nodded and we headed out
So sorry if these chapters are short. I will try to make them longer.
