"SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Maka woke up screaming Soul's name over and over. She had tears staining her face and sweat dripping from her forehead. Soon enough Soul came bursting through her bedroom door, wearing only his boxers. "Maka w-what's wrong!?!" Soul runs to her side and immediately brings her into a hug. "Nothing it was just a bad dream. I-I thought you were....d-dead." Maka went silent but was also blushing at the fact that Soul was holding her and he was only wearing boxers. Maka had seen Soul shirtless before, but she had never seen him without his shirt and pants. "Oh, Maka it's okay. I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere." Soul says as he brings Maka into a tighter hug after she explains her dream to him. "Are you okay now?" Soul asked as he let Maka climb off of him. He hadn't realized that he was sitting on her bed leaned against the wall with Maka straddling him. After she was off of him he began to get up to leave but Maka grabbed him by the wrist. "Uhh. Soul d-do you think you could stay in here with m-me? P-Please." Maka said as she looked into his red eyes. Soul looked back into Maka's emerald green eyes and couldn't help noticing the pain in her eyes. I've never saw her this scared, ever. "Of course I'll stay." Soul said as he made his way to Maka's bed. Maka moved closer to the wall as Soul climbed onto the bed with her. It had been so hot that Maka had taken off the blankets from her bed. Soul got comfortable and was about to turn onto his side from his back when he felt a weight on his chest. Maka had laid her head on Soul's chest and wrapped her arms around his waist as if she was holding onto him for dear life. Soul looked down at his friend and couldn't help but blush. She looked so cute and peaceful just lying there sleeping on his chest. Soul soon got used to the feeling and fell asleep.

Why am I in Maka's room? Oh that's right she had that nightmare last night. I've never seen her so scared of something before. It was like she had almost lived that nightmare and was afraid that it was going to come true. I never want to see her that scared again. I don't know what came over me. I heard her scream my name and I started to panic. I immediately thought the worst. I wasn't sure what was going on, all I knew was that I needed to get to Maka as fast and as soon as possible. 

As Soul was thinking so he didn't realize that he was staring at Maka. He went to sit up a little bit, praying that Maka wouldn't wake up. Soul brushed the hair off of Maka's face and cupped her chin in his hand. God she is so beautiful when she sleeps. I can't believe that I never noticed it before. "Hmm. M-Morning Soul." Maka was begining to sit up and rub the sleep out of her eyes. "Morning Maka. How did you sleep?" Soul was kinda said that Maka had sat up and moved away from him. "Good I guess. Hey um...T-Thanks for staying in here with me. That nightmare really terrified me." Maka was begining to remember the nightmare she had with Soul dying trying to pretect her. Maka knew that if she thought about it anymore she was going to cry, again. "Hey..um..I'm going to go take a shower. Do you mind making breakfast?" Maka was getting up and gathering her things to go take a shower. "Uh..yeah sure. I mean it's my turn anyway you made it yesterday." Soul was watching Maka as she glided across her room gathering her things. "Okay. Well I'll see you in a few then." Maka said as she opened her door and walked out. Soul followed close behind but went to the kitchen. "Mmkay." Soul didn't even bother changing out of his boxers. He just went straight to work on breakfast. Okay what am I going to make Maka?? She made me my favorites yesterday. What are her favorites again?? Think Soul think! You should know this. You two have been living together for seven years. Oh! I remember now. She loves chocolate chip pancakes, scrambled eggs, and bacon! Maka usually takes awhile in ther shower so I should have enough time to make everything. 

*********40 minutes later**********

"Maka! Breakfast is ready!" Soul was sitting down the plates of food on the table. "Okay I'm coming!" Maka was walking down the bathroom and went towards her room. "I'll be out in a minute." Maka closed the door to her room. A minute with Maka is like five hours. Oh well gives me more time to finish setting the table. Soul goes to the fridge and gets out the chocolate milk. As he is pouring two cups of it Maka walks out. "Hey Soul" Maka made her way to the table and sat down. "Hey! These are all my favorites!" "I know. You made my favorites so I thought I'd do the same. Plus I thought with what happened last night it might help." Soul put the milk back into the fridge and went and sat down at the table. "Thanks Soul." "No problem, really." They both begin to eat their breakfast. After about twenty mintues they are done. "Here I'll do the dishes." "Maka you don't have to." "Soul you made the food I'll clean the mess. That's what you did yesterday." "Alright fine if you insist." Soul got up and walked to his room to get his things to get into the shower. "Well while you clean up I'll go take a shower." "Alright." Maka began cleaning up the huge mess that Soul made. How does he always manage to do this? Maybe cause he never really cooks breakfast. Oh well at least he is out of the room. I can't believe that he just stayed in his boxers the whole time. It's amazing how he didn't see me blushing. I don't know why but seeing him like that it makes me get butterflies in my stomach. Like earlier in my room. I couldn't leave fast enough. I mean of course I want to just stay there and sleep with my head on his chest but he probably didn't like that. I mean he was probably just being nice and stayed with me. Maka hadn't realized but as she was cleaning Soul had come back out. He was sitting in one of the chairs at the table with a towel on his head and a pair of shorts on, but no shirt. She's even cute when she is cleaning. What am I saying? Maka is my friend and my meister. There is no way that she would ever like me. Right? Hmmmm. Well she did blush last night when I went into her room, and this morning when she woke up. Then there was breakfast. She never used to blush when I was around. There has to be something I could do to see if it really is me she is blushing at. I've got it! Soul stood up and made his way quietly over to Maka. Maka was drying the dishes and putting them to the side to put away later. She hadn't noticed Soul was in the room until..."Hey Maka!" Soul had wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close to his chest. "SOUL! W-What are you doing!?!" Maka had almost dropped the plate she was holding but managed to put it down safely on the counter top. "Nothin' just seein' what you're doin'. Why? Do you not like me being this close to you?" Soul had the biggest sharp tooth grin on his face as he noticed Maka was begining to blush. "I-I um....um... If y-you wanted to know what I w-was doing why didn't you just ask m-me?" Maka was beginning to blush a deep red and looked away so hopefully Soul wouldn't notice. "Maka? What's wrong? HeHeHe. I see." Soul saw Maka blushing a deep red and decided to back off but before he let her go he gave her a kiss on her cheek and then left to his room. 

What the hell was that!?!?! Why did Soul just do that?!?! Maka put her hand up to her cheek and could still feel the warmth from Soul's kiss. Why is he acting this way? Could it be that he.... No, no there's no way. He is my friend and my weapon. There is no way he would think of me like that. But he kissed just kissed my cheek and my head the other night. Not to mention he stayed with me all night after my nightmare. No Maka NO. He is just your FRIEND and nothing more. Maka finished up the dishes and put them away. After that she went into her room. There has to be a way that I can see if Soul does like me. But what could I do?? Think Maka think. I could just wear my pajamas for the rest of the day. I saw him blush a little last night when he saw that I was wearing that tight tank top and those short shorts. Maka went over to her dresser and got out her tight, black tank top and her deep red short shorts and puts them on. Well it's a start I guess. What should I do with my hair? I could just leave it down since I always have it up. Maka brushed out her long hair blonde hair and then opened up her door slightly. She peeked out and noticed that Soul was still in his room so she went out and sat on the couch. She flipped on the TV and scanned the channels until she landed on her favorite show MythBusters. Maka was a huge science geek and a book worm. She curled up on the couch and watched the marthon that was on.

I'm completely and totally insane. Why the freak did I just do that?!?! I mean at least I got her to blush and stuff but oh my gosh I didn't plan on kissing her on the cheek!!!!!! That surprised me just as it did her. I hope she doesn't hate me for that. I wonder what she is doing? I think she is still in the house so that's good. I should just go out there and see what's going on with her. But what if she doesn't want to see me? I will just stay in here for awhile and then go out there.

                                                *************four hours later***************

I must have fallen asleep. I wonder if Maka is okay? I haven't heard a sound from her room or the living room. I hear the TV though. Okay Soul go out there and talk to her. Soul got up off of his bed, put on his white tank top, and opened up his door. He peeked out his door and saw Maka on the couch. He walked out of his room and made is way to the couch. When he got to the couch he noticed that Maka was asleep, and the TV was in the middle of an episode of MythBusters. Soul decided to take this opportunity and sat down next to Maka. He had gotten comfortable when Maka began to move. Shit, Shit, Shit. Don't wake up. Please! I don't know what I would say. Luckly for Soul Maka was still asleep and was just shifting the spot she was in. She was curled up in a ball with her head close to Soul's lap. Maka began to stretched out and put the pillow she had up onto Soul's lap and put her head on the pillow. Oh thank god, she is still asleep. Maka had curled up close to Soul with her head on his lap. Soul wasn't sure on what to do so he draped his arm over Maka and let her sleep. Before he knew it Soul had fallen asleep.

Okay so I know this might not be the best chapter, but I am trying my hardest to make it go smoothly and not jump from one thing to another. Please fell free to comment and vote. I would love to here what you have to say about the story so far.
