A/N: Well I said that I wouldn't be writing but I had this inspiration last night and well it kept bugging me until I put it down… so here it is. I hope that you like it, you are welcome to review anyway that you want but do remember that this is the very first time I've written anything. I hope that I haven't copied anyone and am sorry if I have…
Disclaimer: I don't own anything so don't sue me, not that I have much other than books…
Confession under the Mistletoe
Everyone was having fun at the dance. Those people being the students and teachers of Shibusen. They were in a large room in the school. Around the room were a few trees, not too many though. White and Green wreaths decorated the walls with a few ribbons between them. There was a slightly raised platform where the DJ was and tables you could sit at, decorated with a poinsettia in the middle. There were also long tables which held food. All this was around the dance floor.
People were chatting at the tables and the edges of the floor. Others were eating and others still were dancing. But let's focus on one group of people. Black Star was being loud as usual. Tsubaki was trying to keep him at least a little quiet; she thinks that he might have gotten into some candy before hand. Death the Kid was standing watching everyone from his spot near a tree. Liz and Patty were nearer to the food table. Soul was licking a candy cane watching Maka 'talk' to her father. Well more like she was ignoring him, he mused.
"You should tell her you know." Soul heard.
"And you should keep your nose in your won business Kid" He replied. …"Am I that obvious?"
"To everyone but her." Kid said.
Kid had found out almost immediately when Soul had first realized he had at least a crush on Maka by the way he had been acting. Kid had been urging him to tell her ever since. He had been the support that he had needed to keep calm when he had found he loved her later. He then felt bad for snapping at Kid, but didn't apologize for the comment, he hadn't seemed to take it personally anyways.
The party moved on and the dancers were alternating between dancing and resting while talking to friends the whole while. The food slowly disappeared, though not mostly into Liz and Patty's mouths. People had fun in general, while teasing those who were noticed under the mistletoe.
It was near the end. Black Star had gotten louder. Liz and Patty were talking to Kid, well, complaining that they wanted to go home. Tsubaki had decided that getting Black Star to quiet down was fruitless long ago and had gone to talk with other friends. Soul was getting up his courage. Finally he went up to Maka as the last song was announced.
"Will you dance with me?" He asked quietly. She turned and smiled. "Sure." So he led her to the floor and they started slow dancing.
"Maka?" Soul started after a while. "Yes?" "… Never mind" She looked at him but let it go. The song ended but they hesitated before parting.
"Mistletoe." Kid announced. They looked up, and yes it was there. Both blushed. "It's tradition" he continued.
So Soul, still blushing, kissed her. It went from chaste to something deeper in a matter of milliseconds. It was short, but Soul gathered his courage again and said what he had been meaning to say the whole night, "I love you Maka." Still blushing mind you. "Me too" she told him, blushing still but smiling.
"FINALLY you two!" the others exclaimed. "That took forever!" Soul and Maka both smiled. They said goodbye to their friends and they walked home hand in hand.
