It's thrusday.

Maka is haveing a crisis.

She holds her head in her hands, well aware of the stares shes getting from her classmates.

she feels there glares and there harsh voices but she doesn't care.

No..she has bigger problems.

It's thrusday..you know the day she's suppose to see Crona at the asylum but..she has no way to get there.

She has ran out of money..and theres no way Spirit would take her, he would know she's going to see Crona, and yell at her agian.

Spirit has been just a dick..and some how her hate for him has grown.

He won't take her to the hospital to see her mother..no he can't stop drinking long enough for him to be ok to drive.

Her mother is alone now in some unknown place and she has no way to her..

She has no way to the asylum either.

"Just look at her..She's about to lose it!" Some one says in a whisper but again she can hear them.

"She's already lost it! Did you hear what she's been doing to those missing animals?"

"Yes! and I heard that some kids tried to confront her about it..and she kicked there asses..who knows if there even alive right now? I heard they haven't come back to school."

Maka's leg shakes as she just holds her head in her hands.

There all dumb ass's..

It's not helping her.

So much shit is going on right now..

What is she suppose to do?..

Her mother..

Crona..

"Hey!" Someone hits her desk causing her to look up.

Ox is grinning at her in triumph..like he's done something so amazing.

On most days she would crack up from seeing him but she's in no mood for jokes.

"What the hell do you want?" She growls.

"I just wanted you to know.." He leans closer a creepy smile on his face. "Me and Kim are a thing now, so if I hear you call her a bitch again I will deal with you myself."

"How did you manage to get her? Did you tell her you were dying?" Maka grunts looking up at him blankly. "Get out of my face Ox, you can't do shit."

"No I didn't!" He glares only to smile again. "She just realized how much of a catch I am."

Despite it all Maka cracks up.

That was just to funny.

"Laugh all you want Maka, but I know your jealous." He smirks and crosses his arms. "It's sad really, how your not going to ever know love like I do."

Maka laughs in his face.

"Even if love was real, who could love you? You look like a Dr. Seuss reject."

He gives her the middle finger but it's awkward looking, and it just causes her to laugh more.

"Your the reject Maka, no one likes you, there either afraid of you or hate you." He glares, slamming his hands back down on her desk.

"Your not much better." She just smirks at him.

All eyes are on the two.

"I can see why your mother would go insane..having a daughter like you would do that to someone." Ox sneers.

..That was to far.

That was to fucking far.

Maka's expression falls and she knows she's giving him the deadliest look.

Ox actually yelps.

"You son of a bitch!- Maka stand up about to attack this boy, to fucking break those dumb ass glasses he wears with her fist. Her eyes are flaring and everyone has gone queit, there all holding there breaths.

"Now Maka, I would calm down if I was you...if your not careful you'll end up in the asylum with your mother."

She doesn't know where Ox is getting these balls to say this shit to her but she's about to break them, grind them, and shove what's left of them down his throat.

"Fuck you!" Maka goes to punch him, to knock that fucking smirk off his face but-

Suddenly Ox is turned around, and is lifted up by his shirt.

Maka's eyes widen a little at how dangerously Kid is looking at Ox, the nerd trembles under his tight grip.

All the students grasp in unison.

"Ox I suggest you sit down in your seat before I sit you down for you." Kid's eyes flare as he lets go of the boy, Ox cowering a little. "If I find you speaking to her in such a way again, it won't just be a warning."

"..A-Alright." Ox pales a little as he bows his head, going to sit in his seat like a dog with it's tail between it's legs.

The whole class starts to talk now.

"What the hell is Kid doing sticking up for her!"

"Don't you know he's friends with her? I heard they spend all there time together!"

"...Do you think there dating?"

"No way in hell! Kid's way to sexy for her! Just look at her hair, it doesn't even look like she brushes it!"

"Maka.."

The class room gets quiet again from Kid addressing her as he takes his seat next to her. He looks at her with concern in those golden orbs.

"Are you ok?"

"Yeah i'm fine Kid." Maka sighs, gripping her hair a little. "You didn't have to do that, I can take care of myself. I was about to kick the shit out of him."

The whole class scoffs.

"Did you hear that? She's so ungrateful! Kid's nice to her and she scolds him!"

"What a bitch!"

"Hey all of you fuck off." Maka growls, looking at all the other kids.

All of them gasp in unsion and look at her in disbelief.

..What is this a fucking TV audience? It's like they don't have a brain of there own..they move as one.

They move as one against her.

"I don't want you to get in trouble Maka." Kid frowns, that concern hasn't faltered. "..You have already been threw so much these couple of days..that is the last thing you need is more stress."

"That's all I can fucking do is stress over this shit!" Her head falls hitting the desk rather hard, her breathing is becoming uneven. "I don't need you to tell me that."

"Maka.." His voice is soft though she isn't looking at him, he puts a gentle hand on her shoulder. "..Let me help you..come on talk to me. You have been trying to keep your distance from me but I can't just watch as you suffer."

"...Get your hand off me Kid." She growls but it's weak.

"..You don't have to do this alone." He takes his hand off her.

She isn't doing this alone, she has Crona but..

That's the problem, she doesn't know how she's going to get to him.

Maka doesn't answer him...she can't..

She tries not to think about her mother..and when ever she does she thinks of Crona but even that turns her stomach..

What if she can't make it?

Crona would think she had abandoned him..He would be sad..

He might cry..

He'll be alone..

How bad would it look on her to just get on the boy, violated him and then just not show up the next time?

He would feel used..

He will be all alone..

He will think she's like his mother..

"Maka if there is anything I can do let me know.." Kid is still speaking so soft..

Then it hits her.

She slowly lifts her head up, looking at Kid with desperate eyes..

She doesn't want to do this but she has to.

She can't let Crona be sad..can't let him be alone..

"..Kid can I ask a favor of you?"

"Of course Maka, anything." He leans closer, his eyes light up.

Maka takes a deep breath.

"Could you..take me to the asylum?"

Kid's eyes dull a little, his expression falling in confusion as the teacher walks into the class room.

Maka sighs and turns her attention to the front..it's obvious Kid's answer.

She feels a light touch on her hand, causing her to look over at Kid.

He has an odd expression in his golden eyes as he searches hers for a moment..

Shes ready for him to say no..

"Ok.." He whispers giving her a nod.

Just that one word relieved her so much..

She would get to see Crona.


"So.." Kid looks over at Maka from the driver seat.

It's been queit between the two after first period..Only now is it broken.

"So.." Maka mumbles looking out of the window.

"..Why do you want me to take you to the asylum?" He looks back at the road but he glance at her from the corner of his eyes. "..I know your mother is no longer there..they wouldn't keep a patient with a coma in the asylum."

Damn Kid for being smart.

"..Does it really matter why i'm going?" She grunts, still not looking at him.

"..I'm just curious.." He speaks uncertainly. " I thought you only went to the asylum for you mother?..Do you visit someone else there?"

"It's none of your business." She snaps.

It becomes queit again and Maka sighs..

Ok that was a bit to much.

"Sorry Kid, I don't mean to snap at you.." Maka holds her head in her hands. "You don't deserve that."

"It's ok Maka." He speaks softly, Maka feeling his gaze on her. "I understand..I would be snappy if I had to deal with all the things you are right now.."

"..Could we stop by my house first? I have to get a couple of things." Maka takes a deep breath.

"Of course." Kid takes a left, going down a road she knows will lead to her place.

There silent for a moment.

"I'm glad you are letting me help you.." Kid gives her a small smile. "...I've been worried about you."

"Don't be." She leans her head back on the seat. "I'm not your problem Kid."

"Your not a problem at all Maka." He frowns. " I've told you...I care for you, I can't help but to worry, not because you my promblem but because your my friend Maka."

"I don't understand you Kid." Maka takes her eyes off the window to look at him. "Your the son of the mayor, your rich, a gentleman. Why do you waste your time and energy on me? When you could have so much more, all i'm doing is taking away from you. I'm not a nice person and I snap on you all the time..but you never even snap back. You help me, I yell at you but..you continue to stand by me. I just don't get it..what are you trying to gain?"

"I'm not trying to gain anything. You are my friend..Yes you can be cold, yes you snap on me but..your real." His eyes gloss over..his voice soft. "You are the only one who treated me differently..You never saw me as the mayor's son..or the rich child..you saw me as me..as an equal. You spoke down to me..something no one would dare do..you don't give me special treatment." His grip tightens a little on the wheel. "You aren't my friend for my money..for the longest time we weren't even friends..you never tried to be fake and you never gave in to me, always trying to be better."

He takes a deep breath.

"I stand by you because you are real...I know you are truly my friend." He looks over and gives her a warm small. "..I want you to know i'm real too, that I am truly your friend. Nothing could change that."

"..." Maka stares at him with wide eyes for a moment..speechless.

"..Well that was beautiful." Maka finds her voice, her giving him a teasing smile..trying to make the conversation not so deep.

"I'm glad you thought so." He chuckles slightly.. "..It's all true you know?"

"I know." Maka looks out the window as Kid parks in front of her home. "Your not one to lie."

"Good." He smiles before he gets out of the car.

Maka hurries up and gets out so he doesn't open the door for her.

They both walk up the small path being queit but..it's a comfortable silence.

She opens the door walking in with Kid right behind her.

"Spirit's not here?" Kid comments looking around the small home.

"No, he hasn't been since Monday." She shrugs. "You can wait out here, I just need to grab a couple things in my room. Feel free to sit on the couch."

"Ok." He smiles and goes over to the living room as Maka walks into her room.

Maka grabs the coloring books and crayons she had left on her bed..She made sure that none of the crayons are sharp and that all of the coloring books are awesome.

She even found a Winnie The Poo one..now that's the shit.

She chuckles to herself as she then gets her sketch book, sticking Girkio's pencil in the edge of it.

Maka knows she won't be able to draw Crona, but that man had asked her to draw his eyes so she would do it.

The guy is a dick but he's helped her out so..

She would put up with him.

Maka looks over her room one last time to make sure she has everything before she nods to herself and walks out.

"Hey Kid i'm ready-

Maka stops in her track.

Her breath hitches.

Shit.

Fuck.

Kid is sitting on the couch..reading her notebook..the one she wrote all about Crona in.

She had forgetten that she took it out last night..she must have just left it there..not really seeing a problem because Spirit hasn't shown up in a while..but..

Oh fuck.

She had wrote everything in there..all about what she did with Crona Monday.

Kid has seen it.

"...Maka." He looks up at her from the note book, a deep frown on his face..his eyes slightly shake. "..Who is Crona?"
