...
It has now been almost two months since Maka and Kid have started dating, and in amongst that time, Tsubaki ended up telling Black Star about their secret relationship, and the engaged couple unfortunately called off the wedding after a big fight (but they're still engaged).
Soul, Maka's Dad and Kid's Dad still don't know about Maka and Kid dating, but Maka is slowly plucking up the courage to tell both her weapon and her Father about her and Kid.
Well she was, until things took a turn for the worst.
….
Maka had come round to the Mansion after Liz had called her up, saying it was an emergency, and she must come round immediately, something had happened to Kid.
Maka shivered slightly as she stood outside the Mansion in the cold, waiting for something to come to the door, 'I rushed out of the house so fast, that I forgot to get a coat, it's colder than I thought out here,' she thought before she could hear slight footsteps getting louder from the other side of the big double doors.
Liz answered the door as she smiled to Maka with a slight sigh of relief.
"Maka, sorry I called you so suddenly like that,"
"It's alright, how's Kid?" Maka asked as she noticed Liz's tired expression, along with her bloodshot red eyes, and unkept appearance.
"Not good, he's been rushed to the hospital," Liz stated as she stood aside to let Maka inside.
"What? What happened?" Maka asked in a worried tone as she walked into the Mansion, while Liz closed the door behind her.
Liz sighed slightly before she answered, "He started coughing up blood, and fitting again last night, but it lasted much longer than the other times, and when he finally stopped, he couldn't breathe properly and lost consciousness. We told his Dad what had happened, and he came and rushed Kid off to the hospital," Liz explained.
"Do you know what's wrong with him yet?" Maka asked.
Liz just shook her head, before she sighed again.
Kid had been going through a tough time lately, as some nights the Reaper had suddenly started coughing up blood, and would start fitting. These episodes of fitting and coughing up blood didn't normally last very long (normally only about 5 minutes at the longest), but last night the episode went on for almost an hour, and when it finally ended, Kid wasn't able to breathe properly and had collapsed.
No one really knows what has been causing these episodes, or why they've suddenly gotten worse now. They started out of nowhere, and only occurred when Kid was sleeping.
"Do you think I could go and see him?" Maka asked.
"I'm not sure he's only probably been there for a few minutes," Liz replied before she walked into the lounge, with Maka following close behind her.
"Where's Patty?" Maka asked looking around the room.
"She fell asleep soon after Kid was rushed into Hospital, she's in our room right now," Liz answered.
Maka nodded slightly, before she sighed, and ran back into the entrance dance hall of the Mansion.
"Maka, where are you going?" Liz asked as she followed the Meister.
"Nowhere," Maka simply replied, before she opened the double doors, ran out of the Mansion and disappeared into the distance.
"What got into her?" Liz thought out loud as she looked to where Maka had ran off to for a minute, before she just shrugged her shoulders and closed the double doors.
….
Maka didn't know where she was running to or why, but she knew that she had to run, run until she could run no more. That's what her mind kept telling her at least.
Her legs began to hurt, but still she kept on running to nowhere. Her breathing was growing short, but still she kept on going and going, until it started to rain.
She slowed to a stop as she gazed up at the cloud filled sky, while the cold rain poured down and soaked her. She didn't care about getting drenched like this, in fact it felt quite relaxing to her. She smiled slightly, before she felt her legs give way, and landed on her knees on the hard ground.
'I want to see him, I want to see you, Kid,' She thought as she collapsed to the floor.
Her breathing ran short, her hearing went faint, her vision went blurry, and her mind went blank.
'Where am I? What am I doing?' she asked herself, before she felt her eyes close slowly, and she sighed slightly.
"Kid," She whispered as a single tear run down her cheek, and she soon felt into a deep sleep.

Yes I know this chapter is short, but the next one will probably be much longer, :D
