The DWMA Dance
Maka's POV
It was another morning in our apartment. Soul as usual was watching TV. I was just in my room re-reading one of my favorite books on my bed. "Maka! I'm hungry!" Soul yelled. "Hold on just give me a minute Soul!" Soul can be rather annoying sometimes, but that's just Soul. I then proceeded to put down my book and then go make us some break feast. I was just wearing a spaghetti strap tank top and Soul was wearing a plain white t-shirt and his boxers.
"Alright Soul, break feast is ready."
"Thank God. Looks good, thanks Maka." He said with a grin.
"Yeah yeah, we need to hurry up or we're going to be late to school."
"Soul!" I said with one hand on my hip waiting for my weapon to get dressed. "Okay okay, I'm here. Can't you just chill and be cool?" He said while getting his shoes on. "Chill? We have five minutes to be at school or we're going to be late!" I grabbed his arm and ran out the door.
"Okay
class now I want you all to watch closely on how I'm going to dissect this frog, okay?" Professor Stein said with what looked like a satisfying grin on his face. Soul and I barged in the class.
"Sorry we're late professor!" I said trying to catch my breath.
"Ah, Soul Eater Evans and Maka Albarn. Both of you are late. Now since this is your first tarty, I'm only going to give you a warning. Understood?"
"Understood." Soul and I said at the same time.
When we were heading to our seats I noticed Blackstar wasn't here today. As soon as I sat down I quietly whispered to Tsubaki. "Psst. Tsubaki, come sit next to me since Blackstar isn't here today." She nodded and quietly got the seat next to Maka. "You have the notebook right?" I questioned. "Yep, it's right here." Tsubaki and I like to pass notes every once in a while. Tsubaki got out the notebook and wrote down something then passed it to Maka.
"So how are things going with Soul lately?"
"Oh you know just the same old things he's never going to know my true feelings any time soon with him always being out with Blackstar or Kid. He also likes to watch TV a lot. We don't really talk as much as we used to lately, so any effort I put into him getting to notice me is pointless."
"Don't say that! He's eventually going to know how you truly feel about him Maka. Then when he does I am SO being your bridesmaid for the wedding!"
When I read that it made me giggle a little. "What's so funny Maka?" Soul said eyeing the notebook. I quickly closed it and covered my hand over it smoothly, "U-uh nothing! Just a little inside joke Tsubaki and I have. That's all." I stammered. Crap, I need to be more careful. Especially since he is sitting right next to me. Way to go Maka. Way to go.
After about a minute which seemed like thirty minutes, I wrote Tsubaki back on the notebook.
"Wedding? I don't know. But do you think I should ask him to the dance that's next Friday? Maybe then I can tell him how I really feel."
"Definitely! Would you mind if Blackstar and I tagged along? It would be fun, and less awkward once you tell him how you really feel."
"Alright, yeah the dance sounds like fun now! I'll go ask if Kid, Liz and Patty want to come along with us as well. But how am I going to ask Soul to be my date for the dance, without making it seem awkward?"
"Easy, just say that Kid is going with Liz and Patty and I'm going with Blackstar so you guys should be going together as well."
"Right. Thanks Tsubaki!"
Right in the middle of Tsubaki writing me back Professor Stein caught Tsubaki and told her to stop passing notes in class and to hand over the notebook so he can confiscate it. Poor Tsubaki looked like she was going to jail, by the look on her face. When she handed the notebook to him and sat down Professor Stein looked through it and gave Tsubaki a warning, but if he catches her doing it again she will get detention. He then placed the notebook at the far corner of his desk, and then dismissed the class.
Soul's POV
I kept on getting distracted by Maka and Tsubaki passing notes to each other. I couldn't read out what they were writing because both of them have small handwriting. Dammit. When Maka started to giggle curiosity got the best of me and I asked her what was so funny. She turned to look at me, and then looked at the desk. "N-Nothing! Just a little inside joke Tsubaki and I have." I looked at the notebook for like three seconds but before I can read anything she closed it and placed her hand over it. "What's her deal?" I thought. I shrugged it off like the cool guy I am and then continued to daydream. That only lasted for about an hour, Professor Stein caught Tsubaki in the middle of writing a note to Maka. She then had to give him the notebook and do the walk of shame to his desk. I couldn't help but feel bad for her considering that she's a good student at the DWMA. Once Professor Stein went through it he then placed it on the far corner of his desk. Then dismissed the class. I knew I wanted that notebook, so I had to take an extra long time on packing up everything. Usually Maka or Blackstar wait for me but Maka said that she was going to hang out with Liz and Tsubaki after school and Blackstar is absent today. So it turned out to be a good day for me.
"Oh! Soul? What's the hold up?" Professor Stein said.
"Oh nothing, I'm trying to find something that I lost over by my desk. I think it fell on the ground or something."
"Okay, well I'm off to the bathroom. If you need anything tell me now."
What I wanted to say was "Yeah, that notebook. So I can snoop on Maka and Tsubaki's conversation." But instead I said "Nope, I don't need anything. Thanks anyway Professor."
As soon as he left I looked around the room just to be cautious and ran to get the notebook then left. "Phew! So glad I finally have it!" I said with a smile. "Have what?" I froze for about two seconds then turned around; only to my relief finding out that it was only Kid.
"Oh nothing, so what's up Kid?"
"Nothing much, I found out that Patty drew giraffes all over my notebook. I was mad at first but then when I counted the number of spots each one of them had and found out that they weren't the number eight. I tore my notebook in half! Then threw it across the room yelling "You worthless piece of garbage, get out of my sight!" Patty was laughing when I did that."
"Uh, Kid? You know that we have a test tomorrow based off of our notes right?"
"We do? Oh crap. Is that your notebook Soul? Can I borrow it for tonight so I can study! Please oh please!" He said with his hands together and with puppy dog eyes.
"This isn't my notebook. It's um completely blank and I need to go home now. Talk to you later Kid!"
"Awe man. Alright, see you around."
Maka's POV
"Okay you can do this; I mean we rehearsed it with Liz and Tsubaki plenty of times! I can do this." I kept on telling myself. Once I was outside of my apartment right in front of the door, I began to panic. "How hard can it be? It's only Soul after all. I can do this! There is no going back now!" I opened the door and quickly looked for Soul. He was in his room sleeping. "Oh great." I said in a very low voice. I poked his stomach two times. Once he opened those eyes, those crimson eyes I almost forgot what I was going to ask him. Damn those gorgeous eyes of his! He yawned then sat up.
"What's up Maka?"
What's up? That isn't like Soul. The Soul I know would have rolled over then would have told me to get out or he would burn all of my books.
"Um. I have to ask you something." I said trying not to look nervous, and also trying to avoid eye contact.
"Okay, I'm listening."
"Well you know about the dance next Friday right?"
"Ha no. Maka you know a cool guy like me doesn't pay attention to those kinds of events. So I'm assuming you're going to ask me to be your date or something?"
My face turned bright red as soon as he mentioned us going as dates together. It sounds hot when he says it. "Well yeah. Because Kid is going with Liz and Patty and Blackstar is going with Tsubaki, so the only logical thing would be for us to go together, you know? Then we're going to go hang out with them during the dance. A get together. Sounds like fun right?" I said with a bright smile on my face hoping he would agree.
"I guess."
I guess? How could he be so cold! Just what I'd expect from any guy. They're all the same. Okay, calm down. Don't get upset, or he will sense it. I should probably start talking before it gets awkward. "Cool! Can't wait! It'll be fun Soul, just you wait." I faked a smile then left.
Soul's POV
Once I got home I went to my bedroom and locked the door. Then sat on my bed and started to skip to the last written page on the notebook. Once I read everything Maka and Tsubaki were talking about during class I couldn't believe it. I thought it had to be a prank or something. My meister, Maka Albarn had a crush on ME. Wow. About freaking time! That girl doesn't show any feelings towards me, but now I have solid proof! I've loved her since the day she chose me to be her weapon. I mean, who couldn't fall in love with her? She was beautiful, smart and cool and so many other things I can't describe. I had a devious smile on. I knew exactly what to do to win her over at the dance. She definitely won't forget about it.
About ten minutes later I got sleepy and crashed on my bed. Then I woke up to a slight poke on my stomach, I shrugged it off and continued slipping. Then another poke came, except this one was much harder than the last one. I opened my eyes to see Maka by the side of my bed. I gave out a small yawn and sat up.
"What's up Maka?" She gave me a weird look, but it was only half a second. I was probably the only person that could have caught that, considering that I've lived with her for a few years. "Um. I have something to ask you." She looked so damn cute when she's all nervous, especially when I'm the one making her nervous. "Okay, I'm listening." Okay play it cool. Don't say anything that will make her suspicious.
"Well you know about the dance next Friday right?"
"Ha no. Maka you know a cool guy like me doesn't pay attention to those kinds of events. So I'm assuming you're going to ask me to be your date or something?" Crap. I really hope she doesn't think that I already knew she was going to ask me to be her date to the dance.
"Well yeah. Because Kid is going with Liz and Patty and Blackstar is going with Tsubaki, so the only logical thing would be for us to go together, you know? Then we're going to go hang out with them during the dance. A get together. Sounds like fun right?"
Keep playing it cool. "I guess."
"Cool! Can't wait! It'll be fun, just you wait." She then smiled then left. Why do I get the feeling that I said the wrong thing? I sighed then layed back down on my bed. "Just you wait Maka, it WILL be a night you won't forget. I'll make sure of it." I said with a cheesy smile.
