Soul Resonance

what i thought

"Maka?" I heard lightly outside of my closed eyes, I didn't move even though the stairs were uncomfortable.

"Maka come on, come sleep in your bed." I ignored him. I felt the stairs creak lightly as he tip toed down. Suddenly I was lifted up.

"Soul put me down I don't want to!" I squealed and squirmed in his arms.

"Shh, maka calm down." He whispered keeping his tight grip around my legs and torso.

"No soul I don't see why you told her your story when I never knew!" I kept squirming but got nowhere. His eyes pierced through the dark as he slowly walked up the stairs not looking away from me.

"You know I couldn't bring myself to tell you, especially because if it had actually worked I wouldn't be your partner and you'd be-" he stopped as he walked into my room and sat me on my bed, quickly taking off my coat.

"What would I be?" I protested as I changed into my sweatpants that were laid by my pillow, and removed the sweater leaving a tank top.

"Nothing forget it." He said sitting down behind me wrapping one arm around my waist and the other around my shoulders.

"Tell me now." I gripped his scared arm.

"I was afraid. Afraid of the thought of you, with someone else as your partner. This apartment could be yours and someone else's. Not yours and mine." His breath was soft on my skin. This stunned me.

"Why were you afraid?" I turned around in his arms. My legs laid across his lap and I placed my hands on his chest feeling it rise and fall.

"I was afraid that you would find love with someone else." My breath stopped. The only light in the entire house was provided by the moon and opened curtains.

"Soul, we're both 17, I'm not in love with anyone." Our faces were nearly touching, our faces unreadable. I don't know who I was trying to fool by saying that.

"Then what," he paused as we both moved in closer, "are we?"

Our lips locked, it had been a little over a year since we kissed the first time. I had forgotten how they tasted and how they felt against mine. He pulled me closer, wrapping his hands tighter around me, warming me and kissing me with passion. After minutes of pationately kissing each other I pulled away.

"We're just confused." I said putting my forehead on his.

"I should leave, school's tomorrow and Kira needs help to get ready." He started to untangle himself from me but I didn't let him.

"Stay with me?" I held his shoulders, but he gently lifted my hands from him and laid me down.

"I'm sorry." He kissed my head and left the room.

"That's not what I thought he'd say, not at all." My head wispers.
