"It seems you have no need to be here anymore. But you need to recover from home, I will prescribe you medicine for the pain also a check up to remove the stiches and see if you're good to go back in action" the doctor smiled softly

"Thank you so much" Maka said as she finished signing release papers

"You can head home when you're ready"

Maka nodded and stood up quickly which got her slightly dizzy. She closed her eyes and tried to concentrate

"You don't have to rush Maka, I'll help you on the way home so take it easy"

"Are you sure you don't want to come with me Maka?" Spirit said worried and whimpered

"I already told you for the billionth time no" Maka said looking at Spirit with a grumpy look

Maka took a deep breath and began to walk slowly at first and once she got the hang of it she walked normally out the door

"I'll drive slow, if you don't feel well just tell me" Soul said, Maka nodded

Soul got on the motorcycle and Maka got on behind him. She hesitated but she placed her hands on his waist

Soul began to drive in a normal speed and didn't want to go any faster. Maka then began to feel more comfortable and wrapped her arms around Souls body. Her chest pressed softly on to his back and Soul smiled

When they got home Soul helped Maka up the stairs to their apartment, but ended up doing it with no problem. Soul opened the door letting Maka in, it was quiet and clean, which she appreciated. Maka walked to her room more normally, Soul set her bag down and walked out her room

"do you want to eat?"

"Sort of" Maka's phone chimed and it was Black Star

Hey, you're out the hospital right?

Maka replied Yea just got home

meet up?

sure, time?

in two hours?

okay

Soul began to take out the ingredients for their meal. Maka joined with Soul in the kitchen, she looked at the ingredients and smiled.

"spaghetti?"

"Yea, are you okay with that?"

"of course, want me to help?"

"yea" quietly Maka took out the tomato sauce, Soul put water in a pot and took out the spaghetti, he added salt to the water and placed two servings in the pot for the two of them.

Maka was thinking of the last time they made dinner, Maka thought it could be her turn to play some music. Maka felt bubbly inside and grabbed her phone and connected her phone to the speaker. She played soft Italian music, she chose her songs carefully making the perfect playlist while recovering in the hospital.

She let it set in the mood. The first song finished and moved to the next, Maka began to move around slowly since her injury was still of a pain. Soul looked over and tried to dance as well.

They side eyed each other and smiled, they closed the distance between each other. Maka wasn't the greatest dancer but she danced how it felt right. He put his hand on her waist and the other on her hand. Maka had danced with Soul plenty of times, but recently she had realized she felt different but couldn't pinpoint why

"Relax" Soul said, Maka felt her face heat up, Soul moved his thumb up and down in a soothing way. Maka had never felt such confusing and sweet affection from Soul, or anyone as a matter a fact.
