Connected || Soul x Maka

Prolouge

Soul survived, somehow

He didn't want to. He couldn't have, he wanted to die so badly to be with his wife. His child who are waiting on the other side

He was in a hospital once again, he tried to move his aching body. Surprisingly he was moving better than he had thought, he had bandages all over his body. He took off every cord and needle in his body

I need to be with them was all Soul could thing about

"Sir! You can't leave please lay down!"

"No! I need to see my wife and child" Soul said desperately

He somehow had strength to push past nurses and out the hospital. It was hot outside and the hot concrete burned his feet. He began to run away from the hospital and had no direction of where.

He stopped after a while and found a corner store. He stole some medicine and a random bottle of liquor and ran out again

He was able to be somewhere far, almost away from the city. He reached a park that was almost empty, the sun was setting and he sat down by a tree. His body became weak and soar

I'll be with you again my love

He took a lot of pills and swallowed with the burning alcohol, he hated it so much but knew he was going to be with Maka for certain, and Sol as well

The first time I go drunk was at our wedding. Do you remember? Soul chuckled to himself

And the first time we went to a bar, we had so much fun. We traveled and met new people, you became friends with them so easily

I know I'm putting so many of our loved ones here in pain. But I have nothing if you're not here with me Soul hoped Maka could somehow hear him

I can't wait Maka's voice popped in his head

He didn't know if he was going insane or it was the alcohol but he was happy to hear her. He didn't know the time or date. He didn't care, all he knew he was ready to be with his wife and child again. The sky turned pink and purple, Soul began to hum

He hummed the first song he wrote for Maka, he slowly closed his eyes. He felt the temperature drop or maybe it was his cold dead body that was taking over.

It wasn't your time a familiar male voice said

I know, but I didn't want to live without Maka

We'll live together out here then

Hes right you should have lived longer it was Maka's voice for sure

I can't without you. You're my home she chuckled a little

Welcome home

The end

————-

Wow! Crazy ending am I right? Gonna start off saying this literally took me about a year or so to write. I changed the plot so many times but I hope you like this over all. I wanted to give it a happy ending but I'm like that would be too predictable

Anyways I carefully checked this so many times to see if there were any mistakes, I hope you loved this story as much as I loved writing it!

Soul and Maka are one of my favorite ships of all times, really wish they were canon though </3 I hope you can give my other stories a read if you're interested.

Please let me know your thoughts! I love reading comments and get super excited to see you vote for my chapters as well

Thank you so much once again and I'll update if any new ships I will write in the future

Also if you're interested to read my alternative endings or previous plots I was going to write I'm listing them down here :)

• my first plot was to actually have Matoi stay a kishen, I switched my mind bc I thought it was nice to have them change and build a relationship with Maka as siblings over time

•my second plot was to actually stop this story without marrying Maka and Soul and make a second separate story where they become a poly couple with an OC

•I was not suppose to kill Black Star but I was literally in agony writing his death. Especially since I wanted him to be with Kid, I know in the Anime they are good friends and all but honestly in the manga it's where their rivalry and friendship become closer and honestly a little romantic lol

•I was not sure to keep Spirit and his wife together or not but I kept them together just because. also I named her Kami because I saw it somewhere. I think it had to do with being like a gone wife I don't know

•I was going to give Maka and Soul a happy ending with children but honestly I didn't like that every ending is almost the same for my stories. I mean in terms of having kids and all, also I wanted to show that it's okay to abort and be pro choice because it's your own body and your own choice. If you're pro life my bad lol, you can be pro life and still respect those who are pro choice just mind your own business

• I was really struggling with what their kid would look like so I picked Souls cool white hair and Maka's green eyes

•I was going to let Maka stay as a professor but I wanted her to grow as a character in this story so I changed that last minute.

•I wasn't going to move them from death city but I thought if they moved Maka should have development too I'm happy I made that decision to be honest

That's pretty much it that I can remember of what I changed, there was probably more changes since it took more than a year

If you do know really good ones comment here lmao

Also was thinking of going to ao3 but not sure, what do you guys think?

Thank you all so much for your support if you follow me, please comment if you enjoyed this or hated this I accept all criticism, I feel like I really changed compared to my last two stories

if you read this far I love you and I hope you find more great fan fiction
