"So, uh, you wanna hang out again tomorrow?" Kid asked me. I rolled my eyes.

"Kid, I'll hang out with you if you stop the whole 'I'm-shy-and-that-makes-me-cute' thing. It's kinda stupid." I told him. To be honest, it actually made him a little cute, but that wasn't going to make me melt. Wait, what am I saying? Nothing was going to make me melt, I don't fall for people.

"Okay, later Angel."

"Later."

I turned away from him and headed out the door. I checked the time on my cell. Seven thirty already? Better get home and eat dinner…

I arrived home soon and decided to make pizza from scratch. By the time it was done, it was past 9:00. I ate two slices of pizza and put the rest in the fridge. As I changed into my pajamas, I set my alarm clock so I wouldn't be late for breakfast at Soul and Maka's. I sighed and slid under the covers in my bed. I just stared at the ceiling until my eyes got heavy and I fell asleep.

The Next Day

I smacked the dismiss button on my alarm clock and groaned, wishing I had settled on lunch instead of breakfast. But, I sucked it up and got ready. And as I finished pulling on my thigh-highs, I realized that for some reason I was nervous about going over to Maka and Soul's. I ignored it and shoved my phone into my shorts pocket. When I walked out the door, I realized the walk to Soul and Maka's was going to be incredibly long. So I went to my garage and rummaged through a bunch of junk until I found what I was looking for.

"Yes, I found ya!" I said to myself as I pulled out my red electric scooter. I made sure it still worked and sped off to Maka and Soul's. When I arrived, I parked my scooter in a small alleyway between the apartment and another building. I knocked on the door and a very perky Blair answered.

"Hi, Angel! Come on in." Blair told me. "Soul told me his girlfriend was coming over!" she added as I walked through the doorway. I froze. As I thought about what to do, I yanked on Blair's hair.

"I'M NOT SOUL'S GIRLFRIEND! IF HE SAID I WAS THEN HE NEEDS TO GET HIS HEAD SCREWED ON STRAIGHT!" I yelled and let go of Blair's purple locks.

"Now, where is Soul?" I asked in the most polite voice I could manage. As Blair sunk to her knees, she pointed to a door across the room. I smiled sweetly and walked over to the door. Without even thinking, at all, I threw the door open.

"Soul! Blair ju-" I stopped mid-sentence. There, in the middle of the room stood Soul, no shirt on what so ever. I felt my cheeks go from like ten degrees to five hundred. A long scar ran down the front of him, starting at his left shoulder and ending at his right hip.

"I, um, I just-just, uh…" I couldn't find the words. I turned my head away.

"Are you okay, Red?" Soul asked me. I nodded my head.

"Yeah. B-Blair just told me you said I was your girlfriend. And I'm not." I told him, finally coming to my senses. Soul sighed as he pulled on his orange t-shirt.

"Stupid Blair… Look, I never said you were my girlfriend. Blair just mixes words up, okay?" he replied as he walked over to me. I nodded and Soul realized how red my face was, another reason to call me Red. He smiled at me.

"Hey, it's fine. You cool?" he said. I smiled back.

"Yeah, I'm cool. You?"

Soul scoffed. "Please, I'm always cool."

I giggled and Soul touched my shoulder gently. "I will take care of Blair." he reassured me. This made me laugh.

"I already did." I told him as I gestured to Blair, who was still in shock. Soul stared at her for a minute then burst out laughing. Maka came out of her room and smiled at me.

"Hey, Angel. When did you get here?" she asked me.

"About two minutes ago."

"Great, well you got here a bit early so give me like a half hour tops to make us breakfast."

"Alright. I'm not really hungry yet anyways."

Lie. I was starving. Maka gave me a puzzled look. "What happened to Blair?"

I smiled deviously. "She said I was Soul's girlfriend again so I beat her butt."

Maka giggled. "Good, she needed that."

She went to the kitchen and started on whatever she had planned for us. Blair stood back up, a little shaky. "I'm gonna go to work now." she told us, as she fumbled around with the doorknob. "Bye guys. Goodbye, uh, Angel."

I could tell she hated me now, and I didn't care, because I hated her too. The second she walked out the door, we all began laughing.

"Well, that was comedy gold." Soul said between short laughs. I let out a short breath and plopped down on the couch next to Soul.

"That was actually a good way for me to get my anger out. Can't believe I'm saying this, but now I want her to call me your girlfriend more so I can do that again." I told Soul, and made him blush.

"Yea-yeah right, Red. You hate me."

"Soul, if I hated you, would I be here right now?"

Soul and Maka chuckled. "So, Chef Maka, what do you have planned for us?"

"Nothing big. Just eggs, bacon, ham, and pancakes."

"Are you kidding? That's big to me! I usually only have eggs, sometimes bacon!" I shouted. Maka giggled and held up a plate.

"Foods done."

I ran over to the table and didn't wait for Soul and Maka, I just ate.

After breakfast, I invited them to hang out with me and Kid. We walked outside and I realized, "Oh, crap. I forgot, I brought my electric scooter…"

"It's okay, I'll meet you there. I feel like I should clean up the place a little." Maka said. Soul and I both felt bad about ditching her, but she insisted we go several more times.

"Maka, Red and I will take the motorcycle and you can take her scooter when you're ready to leave." Soul suggested to both of us at the same time. So we settled on that. I climbed on the motorcycle behind Soul. I guess he sensed I was a little nervous, this being my first time even near one.

"Nervous?"

"Kinda."

Soul smirked. "Just hold on tight, Red. If we crash for any reason, I'll make sure I'm more injured than you."

I smiled a little and wrapped my arms around Soul's waist. It was little reasons like that why I trusted Soul.
