This concludes this little story. I hope it's good. I'm really tired and I think it's too fast. But I like it :)

Happy FMADay everyone!

Soul went to bed that night without eating. He pretended he was asleep when Maka came to tell him dinner was ready. It was hard to ignore her when she sounded concerned for him.

He woke up early the next day, planning on actually doing something about the way he feels towards his miester. Being down in the dumps isn't how Soul Eater does things. It's not cool.

He got up and left the house before Maka and Crona were even awake. He decided the to start showing her how he feels is with a little shopping. He needed some new clothes anyway. She'll be mad he skipped school, but maybe in the long run she'd be thankful.

He stopped his bike in front of a clothing store that he had only entered once when Maka had a package delivered here and she was sick. This store was for women only. But it was Maka's favorite. It had different styles that most girls wear. And that's what he liked about her, she didn't stick to the status quot.

He walked slowly and cautiously to the door. He was a cool guy. He didn't shop in ladies stores. But he was shopping for a girl. And not just any girl. A girl he was in love with. A girl worth losing his cool guy status over.

Thankfully, there was hardly anyone in the store except workers. He walked around and looked at everything before settling on the skirts. It was Maka's preferred choice after all. Glancing around he saw some he thought were cute.

Then he saw the one. He knew that he just had to see that on her. He picked up and fingered the fabric. The design was something that appealed to him in two ways. The emotionally sense in seeing her in it. And the physical sense, since it was so short. The black and white fabric was definitely on the 'to get' list. Now to match it he found a nice button-up black shirt that would fit to Maka's every curve. He calls her tiny tits, sure.. But seeing her in a shirt that makes those tits stand out would be heaven.

Walking down the street he went into the store he loves most. He picked out a nice outfit for himself. A black undershirt and red button up he could use as a jacket with ripped jeans.* Perfect.

Leaving the store he headed back to the apartment. Maka and Crona should be back at the academy by now. He had plenty of time to plan. And make it to Stein's class. To get on her good side before she got home.

He put the bags of clothes on her bed in a fancy-shmancy way his mother taught him long ago. Wrote a not that told her to put it on and meet him later. He put a daisy ontop of the box with a pair of shoes he got her. Adorable flats that Liz made him buy a few weeks ago but was too chicken to give to her. Smirking at his handy work he dashed back downstairs to get to the academy.

Rushing up the stairs to the entrance he thought about Maka and Crona's friendship. Maka wants Crona to fit in so he can become a true student at DWMA. Crona wants to fit in with everyone. He probably wants to learn how to deal with things better too. He has nothing against them in that area. He has never once tol Maka how uncomfortable he is with them being so close. Other students have even begun to wonder if there is a romantic side to their closeness. How ridiculous. Maka was probably oblivious to romance anyway.

Thinking that, Soul slowed down and completely stopped once he was at the top. Maka really was oblivious to romance. When they had just became partners, he remembers seeing a few guys trying to ask her out because Death Scythe was her dad. She turned them all down, because she thought they wanted to be her partner, not her boyfriend. She has a one track mind. She is so dead set on a making a Death Scythe more powerful than the one her mother made that things like boys and relationships don't appeal to her.

"If that's so, how is she even gonna respond to me.. if she doesn't return my feelings.. will we be able to resonate?" He continued to the classroom as these thoughts crossed his mind. Looking inside the glass on the door, he saw Maka with her nose stuck in a book and a frown on her face. More than likely he was the cause.

"Alright, it's now or never. You're a cool guy. Soul Eater. You're gonna be a Death Scythe one day. You fight Kishin's for fucks sake. How hard can it be to tell my miester how I feel.."

He walked in the room and immediately he felt her glare. Yikes.

"Hello Soul, and just where have you been?" Professor Stein was holding a scalpel over a... he didn't even know what it was he was about to dissect this time.

"Sorry. Had to get a part for my bike, the place'll be closed when school gets out." Soul's lazy grin stretched across his face.

"Alright, but let me know or tell Maka next time. Now sit down." Stein began to go on and on about the latest dissection as Soul moved to take his place beside the fuming blonde.

"Yo." He said as he sat next to her. Maka moved her face closer to the book she was reading.

"..i'm sorry for not telling you where I was going. I didn't wanna wake you." he tried again. This time she slammed the book shut.

"...i'll make it up to-" before he could finish, he was Maka-chopped.

"Damn, shoulda thought that through.."

"You worried me, Soul. You could have at least left a note."

"I'm sorry. Won't happen again." He stole a glance at her from the side while she wasn't looking.

"Even Crona was worried. He thought you left cause he was there. It took me forever to get him comfortable again. You need to apologize to him."

"...I'll do that..."

"Good. And I had to throw away the fish since you were asleep. Your loss."

Soul decided to put his feet up and listen to two lechers at once.

At lunch things were back to normal. Soul apologized to Crona for leaving, and told him his excuse. Crona didn't even seem that upset about it. Maka was probably playing it off of how much she was upset he didn't tell her. Which wasn't his fault. It's not like he could. During training with their teams Soul told Kid what he was planning. Kid got upset and started spouting off how the description of the skirt he bought wasn't symmetrical.. and he hasn't even seen it.

By the time school was over, Soul was a nervous wreck.

"Bye guys!" Maka waved goodbye to all their friends and turned to Crona, "Ready to go? It's Soul's turn to cook tonight."

"Oh... uh.. sure... if you... don't mind me... staying.. again..." He mumbled over his words.

"Actually," Soul started which made both Maka and Crona turn to him, "I've got plans for tonight. So I'll see you later Crona." Soul got on his motorcycle and left them perplexed.

"Well that was odd.." Maka watched as he drove off, "Why did he say only Crona? Won't he see me later too?"

Of course she had noticed his attitude lately. And she felt bad that he was feeling left out. But Crona was new to their group and he needed special attention. Sid instructed her to this job and if helped her later on in life she would definitely do it.

As they walked to the apartment, Maka reflected on her feelings toward her weapon. She loved him. She had for a long time. But she never felt like it was a good time to act on those feelings. And she didn't think he liked her that way anyway, so it really didn't matter.

Once they got home, Ragnarok was already begging for food. Laughing at the meister and weapon pair in her kitchen, she walked in her room to change when she saw the surprise on her bed.

"What.." moving closer she saw that it was a whole new outfit. Then she found the note.

Maka,

Put these on and meet me at the fountain in the middle of town.

I've got another surprise for you.

See you at 7.

-Soul

Looking at the clock she saw it was close to 6 now. Whatever Soul was up to she didn't have much time to think about it.

"Hey Crona, I've gotta be somewhere soon. Um, how about I call Tsubaki and you can have dinner with her and Black-Star?"

"YEAH! That Tsubaki cooks better than you!" Ragnarok then began to think about all the yummy deliciousness he was about to get.

"Oh sure... that's fine... with me.. Maka... what do you... have to do..?"

"Soul wants me to meet him for some surprise." Maka had a smile on her face as she said so.

"Hmph. Probably just to say how much he wants a partner who can cook, ugly."

"You know, I'm in a good mood. So i'm gonna ignore that comment. I've gotta get ready!" She ran towards the bathroom to get a quick shower.

Once Crona was headed toward Tsubaki's and Black-Star's apartment, Maka opened up the packages on her bed. She adored the flats, and the shirt was something she knew she would pick up herself. The skirt however.. was amazing.

It was a high waisted white skirt with black designs. The waist looked like the keys of a piano. The skirt was white with black lines with music notes all over it.

She knew how much pain Soul felt from his past, so knowing that he bought this with her in mind meant alot to her. She loved it.

She decided against make-up and jewelry, since he didn't leave any, he must not want her to wear any.

It was a little chilly outside due to fall coming soon, of course in Nevada it wouldn't get to cold. She stood in front of the fountain and waited. She was sure he would come on his motorcycle, she wasn't expecting him to walk up behind her.

"Hey, Maka."

She turned around and saw just how handsome he was. The red button up really brought out his eyes and highlighted his dark skin. He had one arm behind his back, hiding something.

"He-Hey, Soul."

"Thanks for coming here, I wasn't sure you would."

"Of course I would. It's you after all." At that, Soul's cheeks pinked a bit, "So what's this surprise."

Soul smiled, a real, genuine smile. He came right up to Maka, moved his hand and brought out a beautiful bouquet of red roses to her.

"These are for you," Maka's breathe was taken away, "Soul, they-they're beautiful."

Soul placed the flowers on the side of the fountain and took Maka's hands in his.

"I know this is out of the blue, but I really like you. Like, really, really like you, Maka. I think," he sucked in a large gulp of air, "I think I love you, Maka. For some reason, I only noticed it when I wasn't with you. When you were with the girls or recently when you've been hanging out with Crona, I've been so jealous that you were with them and not with me. I want you with me. All the time. I've never wanted anything the way I want that.." he trailed off as he stared into her eyes that were glistening with tears.

"Soul.. I don't know what to say.." Maka wanted to tell him how she felt, but she was still so scared that things wouldn't work out. She was thinking of saying it when he kissed her forehead.

"I know you're scared, I am too, honestly. So let's just enjoy tonight, OK?" He gave her back her flowers and wrapped one of her arms around his.

Maka was happy that their relationship wasn't something so fragile that he didn't see how she felt about these things. He knows all about her parents and how she feels about men. Just like she knows his views on his whole family. They complete one another. She laid her head down on his shoulder as they walked.

They say the heart wants what the heart wants. But it means more to say that the soul wants what the soul wants. Cause while the heart can be swayed by fickle emotions, the soul can see beyond that. Because it's not the shape or form, but the soul that matters. So when the soul feels a little jealously, you know you found the one that's truly worth it.
