Braces

"Maaaaaaakaaaaaaaaaa, it hurrrrrrrts!" "Well, what do you want me to do about it! You already took Advil!" Soul and I banter and chat, with my weapon partner with an abnormal appliance on his teeth. Last time Soul tried braces, he unconsciously bit the wires in half while sleeping. He's gotten rid of the habit, so it should be safe now. "Even if your teeth are sharp and nobody can change that, you still need braces to keep them growing in straight!" He sighs, knowing the argument was won. "Can I have ice cream? Please?" He pleads with those adorable red eyes, and I suddenly want to press my lips to his. I wonder why I'm having this urge all of a sudden? A warmth explodes in my chest, and I give in. "Okay, fine. But you only get one container." "YAAAAAAAAY!" He's so childish. But that's why I like him so much. Yes, time to come clean. I like my partner, Soul. I might even go so far as to say love. He's adorable. We head to the store, and I let him choose his ice cream. He chooses his favorite, Rocky Road. I snatch a container of Mint Chocolate Chip, and Soul starts complaining. About ice cream. "Why do you get one, too?" "Because you're getting one, idiot." That shut him up. Since it's marathon night, we both crowd in on the couch and turn on Maleficent. I shove popcorn in the microwave and watch. A few minutes later, I grab the popcorn and we share.
"Really? This is a total Frozen ending!" I grumble. Soul just laughs, happy with his ice cream. Slowly, my eyes start to close, and I give in to unconciousness.

Soul is still asleep when I wake up. Awwwww, he looks so cute! Except he's drooling. As usual. And he has his arms wrapped around me? I blush furiously. I untangle myself and content myself with making breakfast. Waffles with strawberries. Soul's favorite. I hear snuffling, and I know he's awake and sniffing out his waffles. I giggle, he's like a bloodhound sometimes, literally! I couldn't help thinking it was totally adorable. I set the waffles on the table, and sat down to eat with my weapon. "OH MY SHINIGAMI, I CAN'T DO THIS." I look up to see Soul wearing a pained expression after his outburst. I held my stomach as I fell out of my chair, laughing. "You can't just eat the way you used to, baka!" He pouts.
After that, we go our separate ways to our rooms. I flop down on my bed with a book. The judo-flip scene with Percy and Annabeth in the Mark of Athena is adorable! I start on the House of Hades within minutes. Nico is gay! Or is he bi? I have no idea, but I ship Reynico! Kawaii! I hear a knock from outside the door. "Maka?" I immediately put on a poker face. I open the door. "Are you here to study?" "I'm here to do anything that will distract me from the pain." Suddenly, a daring, extreme idea popped into my head. A brilliant, horrifying idea. And I decide to follow through with it.
"You want to be distracted?" I ask uncertainly. He nodded. Letting my instincts take over, I suddenly pressed my lips to his. What surprised me was that he kissed back. He stumbles back as I draw away and walk down the hall, trying very hard to not run away screaming.
