Soul x Reader

Minutes turned into hours. You sat on the couch of your apartment waiting. Eyes floating from the door to the clock.

10:30 pm

He was 3 hours late. Again.

The dinner you had prepared was still set on the table, untouched. Tonight was supposed to be a night you two would spend alone. It was meant to mend your fracturing relationship and where was he? Where he always was. With your best friend, (g/n). You don't even know why you thought things would have been different tonight. Nothing was new. It never would be. Finally you felt the tears slipping down your face. You felt weak, abused and mentally exhausted. Getting up from your position you stretched out your limbs. You were better than this. Better than him. It was stupid to cry over something that was knowingly doomed from the start. You cleared his plate from the table and sat yourself down to eat. Eating at a table set for two by yourself only added to the gloomy feeling. You decided to text him even though you guessed he wouldn't reply. Might as well end things officially.

You: Don't bother coming home tonight. I'm tired of your bullshit and we are through. Have fun trying to find another meister who'll put up with your dickishness. Lord knows you already found yourself a new bitch to fuck around with.

A bit harsh, but it'll do. He deserves it so why try to mask the anger. You presumed he would either ignore it or be too busy shoving his tongue down your ex-best friend's throat. It disgusted you. Hell it boiled your blood. To think that you were betrayed by not just your boyfriend, but to think that (g/n) would betray you after years of friendship?! Fuck them! You felt a new wave of confidence in you and decided to call them out. On Twitter.

-Isn't it just fucking amazing how the two closest people in your life can betray you and don't even have the balls to admit it? #confuckinggradulations-

Once again harsh, but it was deserved. You put your phone down for just a second only for it to light up again. Someone had favorited your tweet. It just so happened to be Soul, a guy you had been crushing on long before (b/n) came around. You smiled a little remembering the day you had decided to confess to him. If only you had been able to get those words out of your mouth before (b/n) asked you out. Coincidentally he had also asked you to partner up since he didn't have a meister and you didn't have a weapon. He was just so shy and adorable you felt a bit bad about even considering saying no. That was your biggest mistake yet. Little did you know that a certain someone had seen the ordeal and walked away without telling you how he had felt.

You had spent too much time already dwelling on the past. It was useless. What's in the past is in the past. You went back to your living room now and decided o snuggle up and watch some anime. Tonight you were up for something a bit gory due to your little situation. After a few minutes you settle down on a good episode of Hellsing (whoop whoop!) Something about the show just made you happy in that dark sort of way... The characters were all just so twisted and cynical. Maybe part of the reason you liked it was because you yourself were just a bit twisted and cynical. You hadn't even gotten halfway into the episode when you started to feel yourself drifting off. Your relationship really had exhausted you and now that you were free, you started to feel the aftermath of it all. You turned down the volume slightly and cuddled up on your couch. Gently closing your eyes you let sleep consume you and welcome you like a long lost friend would. This peace in your life was something you missed. Freedom of your mind from anyone else but yourself. It was soothing and you wanted to soak of every minute of it.

Surely you knew this wouldn't last long right?

*With Soul*

It was another boring night for the poor boy. Everyone had plans, but him. Makes was studying, Kid took the sisters on a mission, Black Star was training, Blair was... Well Blair and Tsubaki had to be asleep by now. All of his friends were busy... Except him. Feeling the frustration of boredom, he groaned and sat up from his position on the couch to go on Twitter. He scrolled down until he reached the point where he was reading things he had read mere days ago. He sighed once more and scrolled up to the top to refresh his page. With any luck, someone would be awake and with his luck, that someone was you. Now to your dismay it was your tweet of frustration and essential declaration of the single status. He cheated on her again? That's totally uncool man... Then it hit him. This was his excuse to talk to you. That's right, the Soul Evans of the DWMA wanted to talk to you. He had taken an interest of sorts since you transferred into his class. Maybe it was your drive to be the best meister. Maybe it was your kind heart mixed with a fiery attitude. Maybe it was just that pretty charming girl who wasn't afraid to stand up for herself in this mad world they lived in. Hell he first time he saw her fight he felt jealous of the weapon that got to be in her hands. Of course now that your weapon had screwed you over you were weaponless... Either way he could still picture you shit talking a kishin while fighting it with your bare hands. He chuckled to himself a bit. Something about you definitely turned him on. He didn't know what it was, but he knew he really liked you from the start. All of his friends had even taken notice. He'd never forget the time Stein had called him out during class because he was staring off into 'space' as the man would put it. Truthfully he was looking at you. At the way your soft (s/c) glowed and your (h/c) hair flowed down your neck. When everyone had turned to look at the boy who constantly found himself in trouble you caught his stare. Your (e/c) eyes pierced his blood colored ones. You had a small pink tinge and turned away from his rather intense stare huffing yo yourself. He let out a toothy grin at the small memory and sat up straight. Getting himself off the couch, he grabbed his spare key in case Maka decided to lock up. Speaking of Maka... "Hey Maka I'm going out!"
