The Next Day (Nobody's POV)

Everything was perfect. The birds were singing, the sun was shining. It was a beautiful day.

Well, except for some bickering that was coming from Maka Albarn's house.

"Are you serious Soul! You can't move in with me!" Maka shrieked.

She was wearing a black puff bubble long sleeve t-shirt. She had on her red plaid skirt and her shoes were black combat boots. Also she had on a red heart necklace and of course, her signature hairstyle with two black ribbons.

Soul had to admit. Maka was worth it.

"Why not pigtails? It's not like it's illegal or anything" Soul stated as he had his luggage behind him. He was wearing a white-long sleeved shirt with a black tie. His pants were black skinny jeans and his shoes were his favorite, black and white converse.

"Well it's inappropriate if a teenage girl, who lives alone, has a teenage boy moving in with her!" Maka exclaimed.

Soul rolled his eyes and then spoke."Not exactly because now you have a teenage GUY protecting a teenage GIRL from any creeps." Soul said as he raised a brow at her "Come on Maka, I had to sneak in Kid's house to get my things, I did it for you!"

Maka sighed as she put her hand on her forehead."I have rules Soul" she huffed while he pouted.

"Damnit! Well..tell me the rules inside. It's hot out here" Soul said.

Maka nodded and then opened the door as they went inside her house. Soul put his luggage near the door, while Maka was sitting on the couch.

He joined her and then spoke. "So you don't have a guardian?" Soul asked Maka nodded.

"My mom left me when I was very young. I used to admire her and her work but now, I don't really like her" she started as she looked down on the floor. Papa said she'd be back but she never has" Maka said sadly "My dad's dead because of war. I miss him and all but it's okay. I have a part-time job so I'm alright. Paying for rent and all is hard but I've managed"

Soul nodded as he listened. But he was feeling terrible because he's been torturing the poor girl when she already had a fully plate.

"Anyways, my rules are pretty simple" she started as she returned into her normal-cheerfully self. "I clean the house everyday so if you plan to move in, cleaning's involved"

Soul whined a bit after she said that. He hated cleaning."How about, I cook and you clean?"

Maka raised a brow though, "You can cook?" she said confused.

Soul grinned as he nodded. "I've learned" he replied.

Maka nodded this time as she made an o with her mouth.

"I'll tell you what" she started "We take turns. One day, I'll clean while you cook. Then the next day, you'll clean while I cook" Maka suggested.

Soul thought for a bit. He really despised cleaning but he really wanted to live with Maka, so, being a fool as he is, agreed.

"Okay, next rule is that you get a job. If we're both going to live here then we'll both have to pay rent. It's not easy" she said.

Soul nodded again and smirked.

"No problem. I'll get one but I'll need some help. Can you help me?" Soul asked.

Maka thought for a bit until she had an idea.

"How about you work with me?" she said.

Soul thought for a bit, well that's what Maka thought. In reality, he was thinking about how this would turn out.

Well I get see Maka more and I get paid. Good deal to me.

"Whatever" I said as I shrugged "I guess I'll have to"

Maka smiled happily that she even squealed a bit. That made me turn my head and smile a bit.

"Great! Anyways, those are mostly my rules. Oh but before I forget. No inappropriate things Soul, okay?" she stated as she glared at Soul.

Meanwhile Soul fake gasped.

"Don't know what you mean but whatever" he said.

Maka rolled her eyes and then smiled.

"Well...I guess you can move into papa's old room" she started "It's downstairs though" she stated.

Soul shrugged but then smirked.

"So are we dating?" he asked.

Maka's eyes went wide once he said that.

"Huh?!" she said confused.

Soul smirked and then took her hand.

"We must be dating if you just broke up with your boyfriend. Also, I did kiss you. We like each other and we're moving in with each other too. Seems like we should keep it down" he said.

Maka was dead confused now. "Keep what down?!" she asked.

Soul smirked and then whispered into her ear.

"Keep down of being naughty"

Literally at that moment, Maka's whole face turned into a bright tomato.

Soul thought that was hilarious! He always loved messing with her.

"N-naughty?" Maka stuttered.

Soul nodded and then licked his lips.

"Yup. But even if are naughty, then we'll have to keep our voices down" he said.

Maka shook her head quickly and then tried to remove her hand from his.

But Soul wouldn't let her.

So he kissed her hand and then looked at her.

"Well, do you wanna my girlfriend?" Soul asked even though he knew the answer.

Except what he didn't know is that Maka would be so hard.

"No thanks. I just got out of a relationship. Let me think about it" she said once she cooled down.

Soul's eyes went wide after she said that.

Mostly because NOBODY rejects Soul Eater Evans.

"Well whatever. Your loss. Anyways, we have school tomorrow so wear something pretty" he said as he turned his head.

Maka tilted her head a bit.

"Why?" she asked.

Soul smirked and then looked at her with sparkling eyes.

"Yes or no, you're being my girlfriend. I like you alot and I don't want to lose you to anybody. You already like me but I'm gonna to make you say that I'm yours. Won't be easy but it's okay" Soul then paused and gave her one of his grins.

"After all, I picked you because your different"
