A/N: Stein/Maka, as requested by Arizona sno. Also, Stein says 'ass' now. It's his favourite word. I've decided.
Stein swung around and Maka's distraction gave him an opportunity to hit her, and she hit the ground. He glanced at her as she stood up as the loser in the spar.
"I got distracted… I'm sorry." she murmured. Stein pulled out a cigarette.
"Perhaps if you spent less time staring at my ass and more time concentrating you'd have stayed upright." he remarked, completely nonchalantly. Maka gasped.
"That's a wildly inappropriate accusation, Professor!" she exclaimed.
"It's also completely true. I'm not blind." he remarked, walking away.
Perhaps she'd have to take Stein's advice. Maybe she was being too obvious.
