Not just my Weapon -Soul Eater Soul x Maka Fanfiction

Chapter 1- Nervous

(Maka's POV)

It was a normal day at the DWMA for me. Things went as usual. Dr. Stein was blabbering on something about Meisters and Kishin souls to the class. I usually pay attention in class but today my mind was a blur. I've been thinking a lot about Soul lately. I don't know why but lately I've been feeling very nervous around him. Lately, whenever he looks me in the face I become a total nervous wreck.

Soul was leaning back in his seat slacking off as usual. I turn my head to look at him. His crimson eyes meet up with mine. "Hey Maka, what is it?" Said Soul as he turned his head towards me. I begin to blush as I turn away quickly. "Oh. It's nothing." I say in a nervous tone as I look down at the desk. The blush slowing starting to fade. What am I feeling? Am I developing feelings for Soul? It can't be. He's my Weapon and that's all he'll ever be to me. Our personalities are polar opposites. It'll never workout. Anyway, Soul said that I'm too flat chested and introverted for his tastes. Even if I fall for him he'll never fall for me. That's for sure.

After class was over me and Maka rode home on my motorcycle. Maka has been very quiet lately. She barely talks to me anymore. I wish she would. During the ride I tried to fire up a conversation between the two of us. "So hey, what's your deal? You've been silent lately. Everyone alright?" Maka looks up, her blonde pigtails flowing in the wind. "Yeah. I just have a lot on my mind lately." Said Maka in a monotone and slightly depressed tone. "Maka, It's totally not cool seeing you like this. You can tell me anything that's bothering you." I say as I shoot Maka a glance but turn away quickly as I have to keep an eye on the rode. "Yeah. Sure." Said Maka in a slightly sarcastic voice. I let out a sigh.

I honestly do care a lot about Maka. If anyone dares to hurt her I'll make sure they pay. At times I even feel that I might even have feelings for her. I know it sounds silly but I like to tease her because her reaction is cute. (Besides the Maka chop.) I'll never go straight out and tell her because that's not cool and I feel that we'll never work out as a couple. She's just my Meister. No more no less. Our personalities are complete opposites of each other's. She's too busy with her books to even be interested in me anyway.

When we got home I went straight to the bathroom to look in the mirror. As I focused on my reflection I cursed my appearance in my head. Why can't I be beautiful? If I was beautiful Soul will finally have interest in me. But nope, I'm stuck with my blank looking flat chested appearance. Soul then walks in behind me. I begin to feel nervous. "Hey Maka. You've been looking in the mirror for a while now. Why?"

I thought maybe I should just tell him how I feel about myself. He said I can tell him my problems anyway."Soul, I don't like the way I look." I said in a nervous tone. Soul puts a hand on my tensed up shoulder. Soul begins to look nervous himself. "Maka...you're beautiful." Muttered Soul. My face went as red as a tomato. I look away as I whisper "Soul..."
