Connected || Soul x Maka

91.9

When Soul reached their apartment Maka was in the shower. Soul sighed and waited for Maka to come out. Maka tried to relax and took the time to prepare herself for whatever was going to happen at the party

I wonder what kind of party it is. I didn't ask if I should come dressed or just use casual comfortable clothes.

She picked two different outfits and set them down to see what Matoi would say when they would pick her up. She dried and curled her hair, she wore mascara and put some light blush on her cheeks and nose. She stepped out her room and went to the kitchen

Will there be food there?

She shrugged and decided to make instant ramen. Soul stepped out of his room and looked at Maka

"Hey" Soul said standing by

"Hey" she said casually

"Are you okay?" Soul got to the point not trying to waste time on small talk

"I'm fine, want some ramen?" Maka offered as she poured her hot water over her noodles

"I had some earlier too" Maka hummed and nodded

"Maka don't avoid it, why were you crying earlier"

I don't even know why I reacted like that....No... I can't lie to myself. I have feelings for Soul and I was hurt to see him with a guy. I didn't even know he was into guys, he never said he dated any girls that I know of. Is he even into girls? He turned down a couple of confessions when they were in high school

"You don't need to tell me, but don't lie to me about how you feel" Soul said with a serious but soft tone, she nodded she picked up her chop sticks and began to eat.

Soul went back to his room and Maka sat alone in silence. After time passed by it was 7:30 and there was a knock on the door, Maka opened it and saw Matoi. They were wearing black dress pants and a dark green button up shirt with a couple buttons open revealing their chest. They had a silver necklace, bracelet, a watch and rings.

"Hey Maka, you're not ready?" They asked looking at Maka up and down

"I didn't know what kind of party it was going to be so I wasn't sure what to wear, but I got two outfits. Can you help me pick?"

"yup!" Matoi said cheerfully as they stepped inside the apartment and in Makas room. Maka closed her door and showed Matoi her outfits.

"definitely the skirt with the red blouse, oh my death you're going to look amazing" Matoi said handing Maka her picked outfit

Maka began to undress facing sideways, she wasn't really shy but rather awkward. Matoi saw Maka's wound, it was fully healed leaving a scar

"Whoa that scar looks sick" Matoi admired

"I got it while fighting a kishen" Maka explained "Actually tomorrow is my first mission since I have been injured" she smiled

"lets go, the party started"Matoi said Maka nodded, she grabbed her small purse that just held her keys, phone and wallet.

Matoi had a car which surprised Maka a little, She went on the passenger side and they sat in silence with only soft music playing in the back. Maka wasn't sure if it was the chilly weather or the cold car that made her body so tense, or the fact that it was her first party without knowing anyone.

when they arrived, it was a mansion. Maka mouth dropped, they got out the car and Matoi handed the keys to a chauffeur.   

"holy shit this place is huge" Maka said looking around
