Soul X Maka: Please Keep Loving Me

Bond With Her

soul pov

"soul!?" Maka yells from the kitchen.

"what?!" I yell back

"come look at what your daughter did!". I stand up from mine and makas room and make my way down stairs and into the kitchen. I see jelly all over the place.

"what do you want me to do about it?" I ask iterated.

"deal with her!" Maka yells mad. I bend down to her. She look at me and pouts.

"Mia? Why did you do that?"

"I wanted a sandwich" Mia looks at the ground.

"why didn't you ask mom or dad to make you one?"

"I wanted to make one myself."

"ok. Well your gonna help daddy clean it up right?" I stand up and grab two rags and put them under hot water.

"no!." I roll my eyes and I  start cleaning it up. Maka comes over to me and hugs me.

"thank you soul."

"your welcome" maka looks down at Mia.

"ok sweetie, ready to go to bed?" Mia nods and maka takes Mia to her room. I clean up the rest of the jelly. I sit on the couch and wait for maka. Maka comes out and sits next to me. We sit in silence until I break it.

"she doesn't like me maka."

"not this again! Soul you know very we-"

"no she doesn't! She doesn't want anything to do with me!" I cut her off.

"she loves you soul!" Maka yells

"no. No she doesn't maka! She only likes you!"

"maybe its because you never want to bond with her!"

"I don't want to play tea parties or to play barbies! She has nothing in common with me!"

"you don't know that!"

"yes I do! Whenever I offer to take her to the park she tells me that she wants mommy to go not daddy! She only likes you maka! You!". Maka pauses. I look at her and then look at my hands.

"soul. We both love you. She is just going through a faze. She will get over it. Trust me. She does love you soul. I love you."

"I love you too. But... She is my daughter. I want her love too." I say and stand up and go into our room and sit on the bed. Maka doesn't come in for awhile. She finds me sitting on the bed. We argue a lot about Mia not liking me. I just don't feel like she does. Maka sits next to me. She kisses my cheek.

"how about tomorrow when I go shopping you take Mia somewhere?" She nudges my shoulder.

"she wont want to go. She will want you to." I say laying down.

"soul. She does love you. I promise!" Maka lays down next to me. She hugs my arm. Why cant me and Mia just bond?

"we cant bond. We have nothing in common." I say looking at maka sadly.

"well you two both have those spiky teeth. And the white hair. And you two are both weapons."

"thats because she is my offspring." I turn around upset.

"well there could be other things. You just have never tried."

"yes I have! I just never works." I turn to maka.

"please just try tomorrow? Try to bond with her? Hang out with her?"

"sure. I would do anything for her. And you my love" I kiss maka on the nose. She giggles. I hug her until I fall asleep. But I wake up when our door opens slightly. Mia walks in. She comes over to makas side of the bed. She climbs up and lays between me and maka. I turn to her. I kiss her forehead. Then she takes her feet and pushes me away. I roll my eyes and grab my pillow and go downs stairs. I grab a blanket from the closet and lay down on the couch and go to sleep. Why cant she just love me? I love her and maka both. But why does she only like maka? What did i ever do for her to hate me? I only show her that I love her. Maybe I should bond with her. Maybe I could find something we have in common.
