the Kishin slayer (Death the kid X Reader)

Please

After traveling for a couple of hours and making it out of death city, you all stopped at a rest stop that Maka noticed and suggested you all camp out there for the night.

The sun was currently setting as you pulled your helmet off, you shake your (f/c) hair loose from the helmet and it falls like a blanket around your shoulders. As you did this Kid's face got a small dust of pink but no one noticed because the setting of the sun was casting orange, yellow, and pink hues across the resting area and hid his blush well

"Alright, someone should start making some food while the rest get settled in" you suggested  as Austin and Dustin turn back into their human forms and start to stretch a little from the long drive then decided to walk around the resting area to make sure there were no kishins or any other trouble. "I can make the food" Maka spoke up as she hopped of soul's motorcycle, pulling her backpack onto her shoulders and making her way over to where a grill was bolted to the cemented ground of a seating area with picnic tables that was clearly made to have a barbecue or picnic

"Thanks Maka!" You called out after she was about 15 feet away, pulling out some meat and vegetables to roast them on the grill. She sent you a smile and a small wave before lighting the grill.

Black*star had decided to be lazy and went and found a tree to sit and lean against to take a nap until the food was ready. You were thinking about going over and flicking his forehead but then you saw him stretch and yawn and you reminded yourself he pretty much ran the whole way here using speed star. You barely remember anything about black*star but the loud, obnoxious boy had reassured you that you and him were indeed friends and he would help you on this mission anyway he could as long as he got to be the star which you laughed at because you remembered tsubaki, his weapon, tell you he has a habit of over using the words 'star' and 'God' to refer to himself

You saw tsubaki sit beside the boy, letting him rest his head on her shoulder. She looked up and saw you smiling softly at her and the loud mouth so she smiled and waved at you which you smiled and sent her a friendly nod. You were still upset you could only remember a few things about everyone except for soul. You remembered every encounter you've ever had with soul so he was your closest friend at the moment and kid disliked it very much

Soul was crouched, checking his motorcycle, making sure everything was working fine after the long drive, he noticed you watching him and sent you one of his famous shark tooth grins before motioning for you to come over to him. Kid saw this from where he, Liz and patty were sitting at a picnic table closest to where Maka was cooking and he frowned slightly as he watched you walk over to soul and sat on his motorcycle, with your legs dangling over one side

"What's up butter cup" soul said in a playful voice. You giggle at his silly tone "not much, how's the cycle?" You ask as you pat the side of the motorcycle you were sitting on "It's cool, just making sure it stays that way" he replied while standing up and stretching a little before taking a seat next to you, facing the same way you were and where he was sitting earlier as he drove.

You were happy to have soul as your friend. Ever since you woke up in the infirmary he had been there every time you needed someone to talk to, he was also the only one you felt comfortable voicing your doubts to about your parents and kid.

"Have you talked to him yet?" He asked, snapping you out of your grateful thoughts. "Earlier. I told him I wasn't sure about a lot of things. I have things I need to sort through before thinking about relationships" you reply, leaning your head on his shoulder now. His face fell but he quickly replaced it with a small smile "well...it's good you're taking time to figure things out" he said, now leaning his head on top of yours.

He had to admit after you could only remember him back in the infirmary  and the times you hung out together every time Maka neglected him to hang out with crona, he started to fall for you. Hard. He didn't know when he started loving the sight of your smile or the sound of your laugh or the way you would both say 'cool' playfully towards each other when soul over said it during late night hangouts but he knew it wouldn't be cool of him to be in denial about how he felt. He just didn't know how to tell you, especially after what you just told him you said to kid

"Soul?" He heard your soft voice snap him out of his thoughts "hmm?" He hummed as a response "thank you" you say, almost a whisper "huh? For what?" He asked, lifting his head to look down at your face. His eyes widened as he saw tears brimming your eyes that were staring up at him "for being there for me, honestly I probably would've fallen apart by now if I didn't at least have someone to talk to" you say, trying not to let your tears fall.  He immediately wrapped an arm around you, pulling you close to him in a side hug with his head resting on top of yours again "I'm gonna be here for you no matter what (name), I promise. I'll help you work through this, is that cool?" He asked. You giggle through the tears at his usual response then nod "yea, that's cool soul" you say as you turn and engulf him in a full on hug while he still hugged you with just one arm.

You and soul were so busy having a tender moment that you didn't notice kid and Maka glaring daggers at you both with their arms crossed over their chests. Kid was about to storm over and ask what the hell was going on when Maka placed a hand on his shoulder and sighed "we shouldn't get upset, after all he's the only one she fully has right now...give her time kid I'm sure things will get better" she pats his shoulder then goes back to the grill to check on the food that was almost done

Kid sighs, looking back at you and soul, who were now laughing at something soul said to cheer you up. '(Name)...please...don't let him take you from me...please' kid begged silently in his own thoughts.
