Understand Me

Chapter 1

Souls POV:
Finally after a long day if school Im home. I open the door for Maka as we walk into our apartment.

"I'm gonna go to my room now." I say as I set the keys down and make it to our bedroom hallway

"Uhh okay." Maka answers. "I'll be reading in the living room if you need me."

I open the door to the room and go on the computer to do a little browsing on some music listings. After a while I find an amazing band. The music is jazz but it's also dark and crazy,just my kind if music. I grab my iPod to sync it up with my computer. Finally the music finishes to download and I lay in my bed and put the album on shuffle. All the songs have the same vibe but they were all so different, it was perfect.

After listening to the whole album for the fourth time (or maybe more than that), I know that I have to show this to Maka.

Its been about three weeks since I realized that I had feelings for her and I have to admit that Since then I'm way more open with her than before but I think she's fine with it.

I walk to the living room as I see Maka on the couch reading a book as usual and I walk up to her.

"Hey uhh mak.."

"Shhh let me finish this chapter" Maka interrupted as she took her focus back on the book.

"Ok." I head to the couch and sit down getting the best song of the album ready for her to listen to. After a while she closes the book and sets it on the table. I take a look at the cover, it says Music Of All Kinds. Strange... Ithink to myself as I examine the book in front of me.

"So... What do you want Soul." She asks with a hint of irritation in her tone.

"Well,I bought this awesome album and I wanted you to listen to it." I explain as I take out the headphones and pass them to her.

"What kind of music?" She asks as she takes the headphones awkwardly.

"It has a dark jazzy type theme to it, you might like it seeing that you liked that piano song that I played for you when we first met." I say as I get the music ready.

"Sorry Soul but I can't listen to it, I have not gotten to the chapter on jazz yet. Maybe another time." Maka grabs her book as she starts to stand up and I grab her arm.

"You don't need to study music to understand it all you have to do is listen, you have done it before." I say as I gesture her to sit down.

"That might be your way of understanding music but its not mine!I'm not you Soul!" She snapped. "Those times that you have played for me before well... I was quite lost just give me some time okay? Please." And with that she pulls her hand out of my grasp and marches off to her bedroom. I lay on the couch and put my headphones in. I hear a muffled sound of the door closing and I resume listening to my songs. I don't get it! I think to myself . Why hasn't she told me that she has to read about something to truly get it.

I relax on the couch and let the music take me as I fall asleep.
