The sun was overly bright that morning. Maka squinted as she sat up, rubbing her head. She stretched with a loud yawn as she looked around the room. Chrona wasn't out yet so Maka figured she was still asleep. Maka's back was stiff from sleeping on the couch, but she managed to stand and walk to the bathroom. She paused in the mirror to look at her reflection. Her face looked sleepy still, and her hair was slightly messy, but despite all that, she could not believe how mature she looked. Her eyes were slightly piercing. Her hair colour had darkened a little bit over the years. Her whole look had become more beautiful, and that was just her face, if she was to analyze her whole body she would be in the bathroom for a while. She quickly finished her business and walked out to see Chrona with food sitting on the table for her and Maka. She briefly wondered just how long she had been in the bathroom.

"M-morning Maka. I-I made you breakfast."

"Thank you Chrona." The two sat down and dug into their food.

"Did... you sleep well?" Chrona asked breaking the silence.

"Yes I did, thank you."

There was little conversation as they ate. After they finished Maka took care of the dishes, not giving Chrona an option of course. After that the two sat down on the couch in front of the T.V. Maka had picked up the controller to turn on T.V, but nothing happened.

"It ah... I have no cable yet..." Chrona explain as a blush crossed her cheeks.

"Oh.. That's okay. We can just talk to pass time."

"Okay..."

The two actually managed to talk for hours. The topics flipped form one thing to another.

"So, what's it like working in the academy?"

"Oh... I-its nice. The children are nice."

"What do you teach?"

"I ah... I look after the young kids that get raised there."

"Oh nice."

"Y-You should work there Maka... You'd be a great battle teacher."

"Yeah, maybe." Maka smiled to her.

"S-so Maka... What are you going to do if you plan fails?"

"Plan? You mean the party were putting on for Soul?"

"Yes.."

"Well if Soul wont believe I exsist I will give up. I love him, but if he's going to be like that I'm not going to waist my time on him, there is still one other guy I can be happy with." Maka smiled.

Maka looked up the clock and saw it said 1:47pm.

"Oh crap we gotta go Chrona!"

"O-oh!"

Maka quickly grabbed her backpack and practically pushed Chrona out the door.

When they arrived at Soul's, everyone was already outside waiting. Everyone was carrying bags full of junk food.

"Ready?" Maka asked the group with a smirk.

"Yup." They all replied.

Maka took a deep breath and lead everyone upstairs. She took one more deep breath before knocking on the door. There was sounds of shuffling and locks turning before Soul appeared. Still shirtless and in boxers.

"W-what are you all doing here?" He questioned.

"We came to throw a party now that Maka is back." Black Star stated with a laugh.

"Ah... Here?"

"Yes silly." Tsubaki said.

"Ah... okay." Soul moved so everyone could walk in.

Everyone set up the food and drink table and Black Star put on music.

Everyone laughed and danced and told jokes, Soul even seemed to be having fun. They took pictures and played silly kids games, but finally, Maka was ready.

Soul was standing in the corner of the room watching everyone make fools of themselves as he laughed. Maka approtched him and he looked over to her and smiled brightly.

"Oi, Maka, cool party right?" If he was thinking this was a dream or not, Maka was just happy to hear him sound like his old self.

"Yeah it's great. Are you having fun?"

"Oh yeah! It's the coolest party I've been too in years, even the party to celebrate that I became a death scythe wasn't this cool.. but maybe that was just because you weren't there." He winked at her.

Maka had forgotten that she left the day before his party. She tried to shrug off the guilt and decided to come out and ask Soul the question she needed an answer for.

"Soul."

"Yeah?"

"Do you still think I'm a dream?"

He starred into her eyes. He almost looked angry, but then he sighed and placed his hands on Maka's shoulders.

"Maka... there is no way this is you... You told me the day you left that you would never return to me. You made sure I understood that before you left. So why now, would I believe this is you. It has to be a dream."

"No Soul. You've just dreamt of me so much that you can't tell the difference between dream and reality."

"Maybe... but unless you can prove to me this is real, I'm going to believe you're only a dream." He finally let go of her and looked back over to the group of friends.

Maka understood why he was saying what he was, and she didn't blame him. But now, she could prove it to him... but how? Pinching? That usually worked for her, then she got an idea that was so brilliant, she smirked.

She looked through her backpack and pulled out something. Holding it behind her back, she walked up to Soul and used her free hand to tap his shoulder. He looked over to her in confusion.

"What?"

"Maka... CHOP!" A large hardcover book slammed down in Soul's head sending him to the ground to wither in pain.

Everyone stopped and looked at them in awe. Soul rocked back and forth on the ground gripping his head as tears streamed down his face.

"Ow! Ow! Ow! OW!"

"STILL THINK I'M A DREAM?" Maka yelled, large smirk still plastered on her face.

Soul sat up slowly, one hand still gripping his hand. He starred deeply into her eyes. His face went from pain, to confusion, to shock, and finally happiness all under a few seconds.

"M-maka?"

"Finally!"

Soul jumped up and wrapped his arms around Maka tightly.

"Y-You are real." He said it only loud enough for Maka to hear.

"That's what I've been trying to tell you..." She laughed as she let go of him.

"So how long have you been back?"

"Hm... the most recent 'dream' you had where you kissed me."

"O-oh..." He blushed.

"Yay you two are back together!" Patty cheered happily.

Black Star pulled Tsubaki's waist so the two were standing together smiling at them. Chrona stood beside Liz smiling, but Kid had his hands in his pockets looking sad.

K-Kid... Maka thought as guilt washed through her. Did she really want Soul that much? She had so much history with Kid. She had always loved him...

"W-wait!" Maka yelled pulling herself out of Soul's embrace.

"W-what?" Everyone asked at once, confusion frozen on their faces, including Kid.

"I... I don't know.." Maka lowered her head in defeat.
