Chapter 1: The Future

Everyone had gathered at Death Gallows Manor. They're were about to graduate in about a week so they had plenty of free time. It had been a few months since Kid and Liz had their twins so they're was still a lot of excitement about them. Something about having children and getting married had changed Liz and Kid, everyone noticed this, it had forced them to grow a little Kid was no longer so obsessed with symmetry and Liz was more confident in her actions and didn't think about herself as much but thought of others.

The guys were watching a game on the big screen television while the girls had decided to go for a walk. Liz brought out the dual strollers, Patti was trying to get her niece Raven to smile but with no success and she cuddled up against Tsubaki. Tsubaki gently placed the baby girl into the stroller. Maka was playfully tickling the baby Bram getting him to giggle before showering him with kisses as she placed him in the stroller. The girls soon were off to the park for a nice peaceful walk. Soul thought about how Maka had been acting around the baby, he had come to suspect that Maka was going baby crazy. It didn't concern him much, kids loved Maka, whenever on a mission with Kilik and the pots and Fire and Thunder got scared they would always run to Maka for comfort even over their own meister. Maka was really good with kids, probably one of the reason she decided to stay at the school as a teacher after graduation. Actually everyone was staying in Death City as teacher and death scythes. Liz was particularly eager on life after graduation, she was to be death scythes with her sister for her husband Kid, but she wasn't going to be a teacher she decided to stay home and raise her Kids. During the last few weeks Liz started to missed her babies while she was at school and was glad she would have more time with them. Soul couldn't help but think of how Maka would be with children of her own.

Then it hit him. "I want to marry Maka."

The others looked at him. Black Star said. "You just figured that?"

He really just did, no matter how he saw the future he always saw himself with Maka, when he imagined her with children he had imagined that they would be theirs.

Soul with realizing this simple truth turned to his friends. "I need you guys to help me with something."

Black Star and Kid looked at each other intrigue by what was unfolding.

As the girls returned to the Manor the Sun was setting, the babies had fallen asleep in their stroller they found the rooms dark and quiet.

"What's going on? Maka asked confused.

Black Star and Kid quickly ushered the girls and the babies away behind Maka's back. Maka then heard a sound, a very unique sound that she hadn't heard in a long time, the sound of Soul playing the piano. She without a thought walked towards the source of the sound, she knew the song she loved the song it was the song that Soul played for her when they first met. Maka found her way to the room with the piano, she found Soul playing dressed in his black suit.

"Uh Soul what's going on?" Maka asked.

He turned to her and started to make his way to her. "When I first made up my mind to do this I wanted it to be special but I knew I couldn't wait and that I'd need help and let's face it none of our

friends can really keep a secret so I had to do this before someone told you. So I really only really had time to pick up my suit and one other thing." Maka looked at him confused. "Maka we've been dating for a while now and I can't imagine my life without you. You're more than my partner, your more than my girlfriend, you're my soul mate." He got down on his knee and pulled out a newly bought engagement ring. "Maka will you marry me."

Maka stared with her eyes widened in shock and her heart in her throat. "Yes, Soul, I'll marry you."

They embraced each other in a loving kiss as their friends came from where they were watching to congratulate them.

After a few months planning and their wedding was set. It was wonderful ceremony held at sunset. At Maka's insistence Soul invited his family, who he hadn't seen in quiet sometime. They had a talk and to Soul's surprise they told him that they were proud of him and what he had accomplished, it was not the life they would have choose for him but they were proud nonetheless. Then his grandmother gave him a big kiss and told him they loved him.

Maka finished up preparing, she had a long white wedding dress on when her mother arrived.

"Sorry I cut it a little close." Kami told her daughter but I had to make sure I got your wedding gift."

Kami picked up Maka's bouquet and from her bag took out a blue rose and put it in the center. "A blue rose?" Maka asked.

"It was very hard to find one. It's the symbol of Love and prosperity. I hope that you find in your marriage what I didn't find in mine."

"Thank you Mama." Maka hugged her mother.

As the ceremony started Maka was walked down the aisle by her father, every meister in attendance had their weapon pointed at him, just in case he had any last minute ideas. Spirit placed Maka's hands into Souls and then sat down. Stein and Sid held Nygus and Marie right next to Spirit incase he had any change of hearts. Spirit wasn't going to do anything he knew Maka had found someone that would always be there for her unlike him. Spirit knew his daughter deserved someone that would always be there for her so he had no intention on taking that away from her, especially after what Kami promised to do if he did anything to ruin the wedding.

They began to exchange vows Maka started. "Soul, when you first met me I had issues with men." Everyone present immediately turned to Spirit. "But when I met you I saw something...well I heard something. You played for me a song, a song about you, a song about who you are, I don't understand music I never have but I heard it in your song. I knew I could trust you and I didn't know it at the time but I think that's when I fell in love with you. Since then you've always been by my side, no matter what danger we faced or how many Maka chops I gave you. No matter what you were there for me, and you loved me Maka chops and all."

"Maka," Soul began. "for most of my life I've felt that I wasn't me. That I was always trying to be someone else, someone that wasn't me. But with you I always felt that I was me, I always felt that you saw me for who I was and that accepted me for that. Most of all I feel that you love me for me. When I played the piano for you, I think that's when I fell in love with you too."

They exchanged rings, they kissed and they were married. The celebration began with cake and words were exchanged. Liz and Kid congratulated the couple but they had to leave early since the twins had to go to bed. Kid and Liz gave the married couple their best and as Liz pushed the stroller with their twin babies, Kid carried off the sleeping Patti who fell asleep after her sugar crash.

Tsubaki and Black Star were next to wish the couple a good marriage and a happy life together. The rest of the night was very calm but busy and it all went by in a blur. The one moment the couple really remembered was their first dance as a married couple. They didn't remember the music or the people watching they just remembered they were together.

Soon enough Soul and Maka were of on their honey moon to Paris. Maka had been excited about the museums and culture but she got side tracked as her and her new husband ended up in their room for the first few days.

Soul watched Maka sleep as the faint light of the rising sun began to fall on her let in from the cracks of light the curtain allowed in. Soul couldn't help but think that was the most beautiful woman in the world and that he was lucky to have her. Soul held her close and went back to sleep.

It a few weeks later, they were both at the school now as teachers.

The school day had been over for at least for an hour the school seemed to be all but empty, the students were gone just a few teachers in their offices handling paper work and such. Soul was looking around for Maka but he already had an idea of where she was. Soul found her at the piano room, the very room were they had met, she always went to the room when she had to think usually the subject involved Soul. The room was rarely used as it wasn't a music school but Soul locked the door behind him as he knew there was going to be lengthy discussion and didn't want someone walking in on them.

"Hey Maka." Soul greeted her placing a gentle kiss on her cheek.

Maka gave a weak "Hi Soul."

Soul could read Maka like one of her books, Maka had something on her mind for a while and they both had been avoiding discussing it. They both waited in silence for a moment, just waiting for one of them to have the courage to bring up the subject.

"Soul" Maka said timidly. "I want a baby"

"I know" Soul had known of her desire for a while but was afraid.

"You're great with kids and so am I."

"It's not that I don't like kids..."

"You don't think I'd make a good mother."

"No you'd be a great mom."

"So you just don't want to have kids with me."

"No! It's not that-"

"So what is it Soul?"

Soul sat down besides Maka on the piano bench. "it's just that I'm not sure I'd make a good father. You've met my folks, all they cared about was if me and my brother were good at music. It seemed that my grandma was the only who really loved me. I never really had good parents so how would I be a good one."

"Soul you idiot" Maka told him. " you think I'd make a good mother." Soul nodded. "Look at my parents. My dad was a womanizer that left me alone for most of the time, he was so bad he drove my mother away. My mom was great but she was never around so basically I had to raise myself. I didn't have the best parents but you know I'd make a good mother and I know you'll make great father, I know this because we'll be together. We're not our parents, we can learn from their mistakes and be better then them."

Soul looked at his wife with awe, she was so confident in her words, so assured that together they could do anything even after all this time together he loved that she still had utmost faith in him. "Okay let's have a baby."

Maka's face broke into a smile and she leaned in and kissed him. The kiss was sweet and romantic but soon turned into something more passionate.

As Soul pulled away he saw something in his wives eyes a look that he had grown to love but considering where they were it scared him a little." Maka you can't mean... that you want to... here!"

Maka pulled herself onto the piano, bitting her lower lip she only told him. " Well you did lock the door."

Soul knew Maka that when she wanted something there was no fighting her and even if he wanted to fight her he couldn't resist. She brought him closer and then quickly leaned onto the piano. There hands found their way under their clothes, the clothes quickly found itself discarded onto the floor.

The room quickly drifted away and their soul began to resonate as their bodies grew closer. Since the first time they had been intimate together their soul rooms had become merged. They found themselves in a forest with the piano from Souls room in the center, the piano played on its own now matching the couples mod. Everything they were doing was happening in the real world too but when they resonated along they could feel each others needs and wants. We they were together the world would always appear around them. Soul excitedly bite Maka and she squealed in delight.

As they began to quicken their pace the piano began playing faster.

After a spending several minutes of moaning,groaning and screaming each others names the piano shook as the music sheets jumped off the piano and fluttered around them. The pair crashed back into the real world,they found themselves cuddling.

"I can't believe we did that on the school piano." Soul whispered.

"Shush" Maka told him "you'll ruin the moment."

"We should...you know get dressed before anyone comes."

"In a minute just...let's stay like this for a little longer."

"Okay then it's cool."

A week later Maka took a pregnancy test and it came out positive. Maka and Soul were very happy at the idea of becoming parents and just a little nervous. Both assumed that the time on the schools piano was when Maka got pregnant, they both also agreed never to tell anyone that, not their friends or any children they might have.
