Chapter 5 Head hittin'
A/N: Ebby ru in!
Helllooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! (Sorry for the folks who just want to read on the story, but I MUST keep making author's notes!) xD
DTK POV:
After our run, we dropped by a common coffee shop, 'Dark coffee'. "I'd like two walnut cakes and a chocolate mint coffee."
Maka waited for me at a table and I smiled to her from the table. She was so beautiful. Symmetrically beautiful, too.
I sat opposite of her from the steel table and placed the food. "I'm curious. What did you think of my roast lamb?"
A blush flourished across her face, "W-why are you telling me that now?!" She must be remembering about that night.
"'Cause." I leaned on the table and took a bite of the cake, staring into her green orbs.
"I did not taste it or anything."
"You want to come again?" I teased, implying the obvious.
"No!" She was flushing.
I chuckled, "I'm just playing with you." I took another bite.
"Geesh!" She exclaimed, "I expected you to be sincere and honest."
I raised a brow and sipped my coffee. "I am that, too."
"Look Kid, the reason I'm here with you right now is because… " She was fluttering. "…I want you to be by my side and tell your father that this "arrangement" – "
" – Marrigae arrangement." I corrected.
"I didn't need to hear the full word." She pouted, still red, and continues. "I want you to tell your father to stop it and so… So…"
"… So you can like Soul Eater Evan." I finished her sentence. I sighed, "I guess the line between the two of you is broken." Everyone knew there was something developing between the two. Was it just awful of me to talk to her? I couldn't just admired her from afar.
"I've never felt this way before…" She murmurs, and begins to poke her food.
A mile away a large man with blond hair running, not looking our way, was about to crash into us. I jumped over the table and kicked him off his track. "Watch where you're going. You could've hurt someone." I said dryly.
"That hurt." He grumbles. "You didn't had to kick me." His face, furious.
"Either that, or our food and my…" I looked at Maka. What was my relationship with her now? "… Soon to be wife…" I choked. "…Would be spoiled." I straighten my clothes.
"Kid!" Maka exclaims.
"Haha, she doesn't sound like she wants you." He begins to lift her chin up to his face which irked me. "Want to be with me, instead."
Maka smacked his hand away, "Don't touch me."
"Why you…" He begins to throw his fist up and ready to aim at her. I punched his stomach, weakening him, and blow him away with a kick.
"Scoundrel." I hissed.
"Kid!" Maka called. I turned, and see a metal crow bar in speed my way.
Maka POV:
"Kid!" I yelled.
Two more men came, largely built, whom seem to be part of this blond hair man. Kid has just been hit on the head and he was staggering. I was shaking…With fear and anger.
"That was very unfair!" I barked. "Do you know who you just hit?!"
"The boy hit our fella, so I assume, an ass?" The man replied.
Kid's body was waving from side to side. "Maka, that's okay. I can handle this."
"Arrghh!" I groaned in frustration, and I decided to kick one of the man's groin. "Run!" I screamed, and grab Kid's hand.
We ran to the depth of the city.
Several minutes later, we lost them and Kid now had his arm around me for support. We rested in an alley, and there we collapse.
I gasped, "Kid, you're head's bleeding!"
"Oh. I am?" He murmurs. He doesn't seem to have notice anything at all, his eyes were now half lidded. He was becoming more and more unconscious. Kid was losing so much blood!
I brushed his hair from his face and felt his head throbbing. "We have to get you to a hospital."
"No." He jerked away.
"Kid!" I grabbed his collar and he falls to me, planting a kiss. I moved his body. "Kid?" I felt my face red, and I tried looking in his eyes. But he has fallen asleep. I smacked my cheeks, "Why do I feel like this when he's dying infront of me!" I growled to myself.
"Hey, what's happening?" A familiar voice echoed from the streets. It was Ox and Harvar.
"Help!" I called. "Kid's been hit on the head really hard and he's losing a lot of blood!"
The sun was setting already when Kid was finally placed in a bed. Kid was now being treated by Nygus. I couldn't do anything more, but wait with the other clients. I took my cell out and begin to text Soul:
I'm sorry. I won't be able to make it back. Let's just call it a day... again.
Soul POV:
When I received Maka's text, I was still waiting for Maka in Shibusen. "FUUUCCCK." I punched the wall, leaving it marked. I was infuriated. After Maka left to go see Kid, this happens! Where is she now?!
"Soul, you still waiting?" Blackstar asked, passing with Tsubaki.
Tsubaki purposely coughs and nudges Blackstar, "We were suppose to inform him, have you forgotten that quickly?" She turns to me, "Maka has been in hospital hours ago. I'm sorry you had to wait for so long, too."
"What? Why she in hospital?"
"Ha!" Blackstar laughs, "That's an easy question! It's because of Kid!"
aarrghhh my stomach feels knotted once more, but now my head joins in and aches.
"Kid has been hurt badly due to some in cid ent." She said carefully, scrutinizing me.
"Why're you looking at me that way?" I asked.
"Haha! That's another easy question!" Blackstar said, "She's checking if you're jealous!"
"Jealous? As if. I can bang any girl I like, have you forgotten who I am? I'm the coolest person in our year, idiot!" I playfully knocked his head.
"Hmmm." Tsubaki mumbles, "If that's how you're thinking right now, then you have a long way before you can even touch Maka's heart."
"She has small ti - language, right - boobs! No way would I ever want her!"
It was just all for a good fuck, isn't it? Mwahahahaha!
I moved my head and smashed it to the wall.
"Soul!?" Blackstar and Tsubaki called.
"Just go..." I rasped.
"You're worrying me, Soul." Blackstar said, "Just warn me if you're going to do anything irrational, okay!?"
Tsubaki looks at him as if he was almost the dumbest person alive - I was obviously not all right.
I force a smile to him to tell him I'm okay. He took the bait and he grabbed Tsubaki and left.
I picked my cell and texted Maka:
I'm not going anywhere, until someone does their duty. I'll sleep here if I have to!
Maka POV:
I read Soul's text and cussed. He picked a bad time to be stubborn! I can't just leave Kid now, no one else is acquainted with him here.
"Is that Kid?" a girl asked, peeking in the door sill. She had a brown hair and her face was covered with freckles.
"What do you think you're doing?" I pulled her away from the door, "Don't pry on him like that. It's very disrespectful."
"Cherry! Hollie! Come 'ere! It's Kid!" She ignored me.
"What is all this?" I asked as two more people came. One had pink hair and the other with bangs and more than one piercing on her face...
"Oh, i forgot to introduce myself. I'm Jillian. And Cherry, Hollie and about ten others, we're all part of Kid's fan club."
I mouthed 'What...The...Fuck.' Has half the year mooned over Kid, or something? I've never realised it. I knew Soul had his own, but not Kid. Kid my good friend who had that unappealing obsessive compulsory disorder. However, without that, he might've been my ideal guy. I shook my head. What am I thinking.
"Maka!" I turned to see Patty calling and beside her was Liz.
"What's up, Maka?" Liz said.
I looked to the fan club and most have dispersed. "Oh shit, it's those twins." Jillian whispered to me. "Without them in the picture, than maybe we could compete!"
Oh.
I turned back to the twins again, "Hello."
"We heard Kid got knocked out, did you do it?" Liz asked, winking. Is she referring to something else!?
I flushed, "Huh? What! No!" Do they know? "Anyways, when did you two get back?" Oh I almost forgot. "I'm sorry, but I have to go see Soul now!" I dashed to the exit without letting them answer.
"We got back today!" Patty yelled loud enough for me to hear her in a distant, "Thankyou for listening!"
"I''m sorry!" I called back.
The moon was up when I arrived at shibusen. Only few people were still here and it probabbly has to do with late shift soul hunting. From the night sky I could see the moon was grinning, revealing its teeth and bleeding. 'Madness', I thought. I had a feeling it will soon laugh, or cackle, and I still haven't figure out why. But the closest thing was probably because someone has died.
I found Soul in the corridor, leaning on a wall. "What is wrong with you?" I asked, not hiding my anger.
He grumbled, "I'm hungry." That's a lie.
I humphed, "You do know I have just been in the the hospital."
"You weren't hurt, were you?" He murmurs, staring down to the floor.
"No. Don't worry, it was only Kid."
He gets up from his stance and walks to me, and knocks our head together.
"Ow! What the hell, Soul!?"
He moves closer to me till our face was only inches away. I could hear him breathing angrily and his ruby eyes were sharp. "Can we just fight some kishin... There's a demon in my head ready to come out..."
"The black b-blood?" I asked hesitantly. His face was so close that I could feel a blushing creeping up of me. No good.
"yeah." He said hoarsely. His eyes suddenly change and looks hungry and is searching me. A nd I think it wasn't the hungry type for an appetite.
I pushed Soul reluctantly away before anything happens. "I guess we need to excercise it and teach it some discipline."
He started walking down the hall. "Come on then."
"Where are we going?" I followed.
"Kishin killing." I hear him say, and he murmurs almost to himself, staring into the distant, "Back to the days where it was just you and me."
