Linked Souls [ A Souleater Fanfiction ]

Chapter 1

~Maka's POV~
I woke up to the rays of the rising sun touching my eyes and reflecting through the window shades. I climbed out of my bed and dressed into my everyday outfit and putting my hair up into my everyday pigtails. I could smell something wonderful cooking from the kitchen. When I walked in there was Soul and Blackstar attempting to put out a kitchen fire.

"SOUL WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!" I asked angrily.

"MAKA A LITTLE HELP HERE PLEASE!!" cried out Blackstar.

I looked at them very annoyed and extremely pissed. They had not payed attention at all during FACS as it seems. I slapped my forehead wondering when will these goon's ever learn how to cook properly. I opened the cupboards in the kitched, grabbed the baking powder, and lightly doused it. The flames died out but not my annoyance and anger only because they could have burned the whole academy down if they wanted too.

"Maka, im sorry I tried to cook breakfast and I guess things didn't go planned the way they should have. Want a muffin?" Soul asked sweetly.

How could I ever stay angry at Soul? He may be a little bit laid back most of the time but he's a really good guy. Even if he is a big goon I still appreciate all the little things he does for me. I nodded my head and he grabbed me a muffin. I took a small bite out of it smiling at his goofy adorable face at the same time. Im going to be honest, I could never do without him. He makes me feel like the person I am today. Strong, courageous, brave, and happy all the time.

"Hey Maka, ya know its uh, its nice out and i was wonderin if maybe you'd wanna go and hang out in town." He said.

I blushed just teensy bit. Was this a date proposal? No, it couldn't have been. I was over my head thinking that very thought. But its always fun to fantasize. Well, I mean for me. No one else. Every girl that Soul ever looked at or associated with I was drowned with envy in my head. Blair for example, when he first saw her he was drooling. That probably pissed me off more than anything. After awhile I brushed it off finally. Especially when I got to know Blair.

"Sure Soul. And your right it is a nice day after all." I replied with a smile.

"Well if you two are going for a boring outing im going to practice my amazing high skilled ninja moves." he said very confidently while strutting out the door in the process.

I rolled my eyes and grabbed my messenger bag walking out the door with Soul. We left school and went to the soda shop for a rootbeer float for two.

"Do you ever think the kishin is gonna come back?" asked Soul.

"I Don't know, maybe he'll be dormant maybe he won't." I said.

Those words I uttered were pretty true though. I mean he could be dormant or gone for good. Anyway, other than the kishin I was more focused on sharing a rootbeer float with Soul and enjoying a nice day around town with Soul. I couldn't tell whether he was blushing or smiling at me. Maybe he was and maybe he wasn't. I shook my head trying to rid of the thought.

"You ok Maka?" asked Soul.

"Yeah, im fine." I replied.

I head the sound of the glass cup and foaming rootbeer float right in front of us with two straws inside. I took at least a few sips and wiped my mouth of the beverage. I observed Soul and smiled. He took gigantic sips. Of course he would. When it comes to Soul and food there's nothing left on the plate or in the cup. I would know because I do the dishes every night.

It wouldn't kill Soul to do them once in awhile but I try to blow that subject off my shoulders like dust and forget about it. Even if its really annoying and pushes my buttons a little. Because I really care for Soul I really do. He's my best friend and we've been through a lot together. I would feel lost without him.

Anyway, he sipped up the last of the rootbeer float and grabbed change out of his wallet to pay for it. I remembered my papa gave me 50$ to spend on my outing today so I stopped Soul's hand and set out 2$ for the float.

"Ya know you didn't have to do that." said Soul

"I know but you've done so much for me and its the least I could do." I replied sweetly.

A small little smirk crept on his face and I smiled back at him. We walked out of the soda shop and strolled around town looking for other places to try. He had his hands in the back of his head in a relaxing position as always. I wasn't to fond on the lax side of him but I loved everything else about him. Though I had to remind myself that I might be going over my head about that thought. But its something I can't stop thinking about.
