Hey, guys! I'm sorry for not updating yesterday but I did post my other story so I hope that made up for it, as I said in that last story, I've had a bit of writers block. I know what I want to happen in the story I just don't know how to make it happen, do you get what I mean? don't worry, I'll still post and the story will be finished at somepoint. This isn't the end. Anyway, I spent a whole load of time this chapter so I hope you enjoy it. See you guys later!

The notes came more and more regularly. Almost every hour but I didn't have the heart to tell Soul. Each letter made me more and more paranoid until the point I felt physically ill.

Hey, saw you with my future husband today. You'd better fucking get out of the way. Soul belongs to me! And the only way to get him...is to get rid...of...you. Well, isn't this a strange turn of events xx

The next day, I though it was over...

Well. I haven't gotten rid of you yet. I'm biding my time, playing with you. Watching you sweat with each and every letter I'm sending you. Soul looked so handsome yesterday, didn't he. Too bad you won't be around to see how gorgeous he'll be in the future. Bye bye xx

That night, after I kissed Soul goodbye, I walked home and felt someone following me...but nothing happened. I reached home safe and well...

I was planning on disposing of you last night but...you were with Soul. I couldn't do that to him, he doesn't deserve to see your dead face. Your lifeless eyes. Glazed over with blood. A dozen knives sticking out of your chest. He wouldn't want to see that...I, on the other hand...can't. Fucking. Wait. I'm counting down...xx

Later that day I received...

Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock xx

Each word made me sick. I dialled Tsubakis number on my phone, I desperately needed to call her.

"Huh? Hello?"

"Hey Tsubaki"

"Oh hi, Maka! Are you okay? You sound really worried"

"Actually, I need to talk to you badly...can I meet you in the gym after school?"

"Yeah, sure I'll see you then. Bye!"

And with that, she hung up.

I spent the rest of the day with Soul, helping him study for his exams then after school I told him I couldn't walk home with him and I'd text him tonight, we bid farewell with a long kiss. I headed to the gym and waited but Tsubaki never showed up. I was just about to head when someone came up behind me and pushed me to a wall.

"Trying to take my Soul, are you?" Jacqueline. She out her hand to my throat and held it there. I was frozen in fear, I was static.

"Tick...tick...tick...tick.. ...oops...the clocks run out...bye bye. Maka."

She pushed me against the wall and lifted me up, blocking the route to my lungs. I couldn't breathe. I was dying. I started thrashing out but that only made it worse, she tightened her grip. The world was going blurry...I...I was losing consciousness. I would die alone, I would be found too late...this was it...

I was walking home and I met a kind of annoyed Tsubaki,

"Yo! What's up?" I said

"Ugh...Maka said she needed to meet me then she pulled out at the last minute." She passed me a note "here read for yourself."

Dear Tsubaki,

Sorry I cant meet you at the gym. I've got homework to do and stuff haha. Anyway ill see you laters.

Maka

"No" I said "this isn't Makas letter, notice how they've got apostrophes missing from 'can't' and 'I'll' also this isn't her handwriting, it's too pointed, Makas wires in cursive" something's wrong, very wrong.

"But...what?" Tsubaki said

"Look, I'll see if she's there and I'll let you know" and I turned and ran to the school.

She dropped me to the floor and started kicking my stomach, knocking the air from it still. I coughed up blood on the floor of the gym. And she laughed. She sat on top of me and started clawing at my face, she stuck cloth in my mouth so I couldn't scream.

"Mmmmf MMMF!" I screamed, tears rolling down my cheeks. She stood up and started stomping on my arm. Breaking it. The pain was unbearable, stop stop stop stop stop stop! Then when my arm was successfully broken she lifted me to the wall and started strangling me again. She brought out a knife and sliced my bare legs with it, making me cry harder. She carefully brought the blade to my stomach and push it it. I felt it go inside of me, the pain was unbearable. I couldn't hold on. I was Rapunzel, gripping onto the window of her tower for dear life while the mother stamped on her fingers to make her let go. As her fingers were stomped on harder and harder, Rapunzel wished for her prince to appear, to catch her as she fell or to kill the mother and pull her into his arms. He did neither, he didn't come.

"This is for Soul" she said, squeezing harder and harder. I couldn't breathe. The doors to the gym swung open but the world went black...

I ran to the gym and smashed open the doors. I saw Maka. Limp, hanging in midair only being held up by someone's arm. I ran over and shoved them over. It was Jaqueline.

"Soul-kun! What are you doing?" She said sweetly, I slapped her and she screamed and ran out of the gym. I didn't care though, she would get her punishment, the only thing concerning me was Maka. I ran over to her and cradled her in my arms while I called an ambulance. Her pulse was so weak it was like a ghost. A few minutes later and the ambulance and police arrived and took her away from me... Leaving me in a pool of Makas blood in the middle of the gym.

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. The machine went on and on. Never ending. I sat in a white chair next to Makas bed, her father came in but within half an hour he was kicked out for waking up and disturbing patients with his blubbering. Makas arm was in a cast, she has cuts all over her face and she was only just getting used to breathing again. I held her non-broken hand, wishing, begging, pleading with the fates to let Maka live but...only time would tell if they answered my plea.

I was so tired, I hadn't slept a bit in case Maka woke up suddenly. Then something moved. Her hand clasped onto mines harder as her eyes slowly fluttered open, her eyes were dull and slight lifeless but she was here, she was awake, she was okay, I was okay.

"S-Soul?...a-a-are you o-okay?"

She so stupid, she nearly dies and she asks if I'm okay! All I did was wrap my arms around her tight.

"S-S-Soul?...did-did she take you from me?"

I sat up, Maka was nearly crying.

"What?!"

"Di- did Jacqueline t-t-take you from me?"

She didn't look into my eyes, did she actually think this?!

"Maka! You're super smart! How could you be so stupid as to think I would choose her over you, you're an idiot but your my idiot girlfriend and I'll never let you go, ever. Okay?"

More tears were running down her cheeks as I kissed her.

He would never leave me. He was right, I was stupid to think he would. Rapunzel fell, she fell down and down and down. She wasn't sure where she was falling to, but she was sure it was to her death. But the prince had been there all along, he caught her at the bottom of the tower and held her close.

"I'll never let you go, ever. Okay?"

"Okay, remember, you'll always be mines as well"

"Thank you"

I held Maka,

"Okay, remember you'll always be mines as well"

"Thank you" I replied, hugging her tighter and tighter. I loved her too much to let her fall and I hoped she knew that.

Well, I hope you liked that! I've got something else I'm gonna include but that's for later chapters, well review please and I hope you enjoyed this chapter,

bai bai!
