Soul had gotten his priorities in line, and his mind. Maka hadn't minded the kiss, she loved Soul, but when he started to take it too far, she objected. She wanted nothing to do with anything that might ruin their partnership. Although, she wanted it dearly. Soul looked like he was incredibly embarrassed. He had kept her underwear on and set her in the tub.

The warm water swirling around her made her mind relax. Maka hadn't had a bath in ages and she was really tired of all of the dust and grime caking her body. If she had told anyone that Soul was the one giving her a bath, they would have been baffled by it. They would have thought she would never have let him; insisting on getting Tsubaki or Liz to help her. But after spending all of that time in bed, doing absolutely nothing, Maka was in need of doing something, anything!

After confessing his love for her, Maka's mind was truly in peace. She was so relaxed, she didnt even hear Soul's question.

"Oi Maka." Soul's loud beep voice startled her into reality.

"Hu? What?"

"I asked if you want your pajamas cleaned. Geez Maka, pay attention!"

"Oh um sure." Maka was too relaxed to object when Soul stood and walked out of the small bathroom. He closed the door partially so he could her her if she called.

Maka glanced at her hand and wiggled her only moving finger. "I miss being able to move."

Soul poked his head through the door, "What did you say Maka?"

"Hm? Oh nothing... Just... Talking to myself." she mumbled. Soul smiled, his sharp teeth flashing as he pulled his head away. Maka yawned, she had never really been this relaxed while she was laying in bed of the infirmary. Also she hadn't gotten much sleep because her body was awake from being so still. Most nights she just sat in bed and stared at the fan or the curtains wiggling back and forth from the wind. She could feel her eye lids drooping and her breathing slowing. She could just hear Soul trip on something and curse as he hit the floor. Everything went black as she fell asleep.

Soul's POV

"FUCK! OWOWOW!" Soul yelled as he tripped on a damn doorknob that still hasn't been picked up from Black Star's last door he broke. Soul's first problem was when he stepped on the doorknob and it rolled with him. The only reason he couldn't see it was because he had am armload of laundry. Heh, I'll surprise Maka and wash the blankets on the bed! That'll get her in a great mood. Instead of normally catching himself, Soul flew to the ground and banged his chin on the floor. Sheets and blankets fluttered over his head and covered him.

His next problem arrived when Tsubaki walked in, NOT SEEING HIM AT ALL, and walked to the bathroom, OVER ALL OF THE BLANKETS STEPPING ON HIS HEAD. "HOLY SHIT, MMMPH, FUCK! GET OFF WHOEVER IS STEPPING ON ME!" He screamed as loud as he could, face first on the floor.

"Oops! Sorry!" Tsubaki leaped back in confusion. I bet she can't figure out who is underneath all of the blankets. He picked himself off the ground, wrestling with the sheets a couple of times, and rubbed his chin, and now hurting nose. Standing in front of the worrying Tsubaki, Soul glared at her. "Uh, um, Soul? Why were you on the floor? With bed sheets on you? And where's Maka?" she added, looking around.

"Well, first I fell carrying them and I think Black Star over heard her saying she wanted a book but couldn't hold it and he picked her up and ran down the hallways screaming 'You don't need a book when you have the great Black Star to carry you around DWMA!'" He finished his lie by putting his hands in his pockets and looked cooly at Tsubaki.

She gasped and ran out of the room screaming for Black Star. If only Soul knew that she knew it was a lie.

~i!i!i!i!i!i~

It was at least 30 minutes until the laundry was done. Soul walked back to the bathroom after putting the sheets on the bed. He expected a very pruney and mad Maka glaring at him, but when he walked in, he saw her sleeping peacefully. "Silly." He smiled, lifting the petite girl out of the water and wrapping her in a towel. He dried her off and put her pajamas back on. Soul tucked Maka into bed, but before he left he put a small flower behind her ear and gave her a small kiss on her forehead.
