Unexpected Visitors

Chapter 5

Disclaimer:I don't own Soul Eater or it's characters.

Soul sat slouched on the sofa with his hands stuffed in his pockets. He felt like he was watching one of those cheap soap operas.

"This is so uncool." he muttered before feeling a sharp jab in his ribs. He turned beside him, met with Maka's sharp glare. "Whatever." he breathed out and slumped down even more then before staying silent.

The group of friends sat in a line on Death The Kid's sofa, awkwardly watching the events of the night play out. The group shifted uncomfortably as the tall woman and Kid glared at each other neither giving up the fight.

"Hmph, their the spotlight in the room, must be trying to upstage me!" BlackStar said crossing his arms unhappily.

"Black Star this really isn't the time." Tsubaki said to him quietly. black Star opened his mouth in the attempt to reply but instantly shut it as the stranger's voice echoed in the room.

"I am their Biological mother..."

the same thought went through in all of the couch's occupants minds "Their...Mother."

Kid's voice yelled loudly in the room and it dragged them all out of their daze. They looked over in the direction of the Thompson sister's Mother and Kid to see the women calmly walk out of the door. Now that they thought about it, the women looked a lot like the two sisters. She was tall and lanky just like Liz was and she had, without all of the makeup, a shocking resemblance to them in her features. But the women's hair was the same as Patty's, her face too.

The room was silent again and nothing but the ticking of a clock from down the hall. Moments passed that seemed to drag on and felt like hours. The poor door that had suffered enough tonight opened slowly again.

The group on the sofa groaned together fearing another visit. Two people came around the corner and to much relief it was Patty with a much soaked Liz behind her.

Kid slowly looked up at them his eyes brightening a little. Liz muttered something incoherent as she looked away with a slight blush on her cheeks.

"What?" Kid asked after not catching anything she said.

"I said, that I was..y'know sorry." Liz said back finally looking at him with a casual shrug of her shoulders. Kid smiled sweetly at her moving towards where they both stood.

"You have nothing to apologize for." He told her. He looked down at his carpet there were now stains on it from ashes and a spilled soda Liz crushed. Except my carpet he thought frowning a bit.

Liz then exploded in a fit of laughter. "You just thought, Except my carpet didn't you?" Liz said her blue eyes filled with amusement. A little of her regular self back. Kid straightened and ignored her statement the color deepening on his cheeks.

"You both are soaked, you should go take a shower and relax upstairs." he told them turning completely around from them. Liz and Patty muffled another fit of laughter at his embarrassment.

"OK Kid-kun we'll be upstairs." Patty said to him between fits of laughter she couldn't keep in. The sisters walked upstairs their footsteps fading. When the sound of the showers running could be heard Kid relaxed his shoulders. He looked around the room and his gaze fell upon his friends.

"Oh right, you're still here." he said absentmindedly.

The rest of the group had the same thoughts in mind that day.

He forgot about us! they sat there looking at him in disbelief.

The hot water from the shower spilled over Liz's body relaxing the tight muscles in her shoulders. She had finally let all of the anger she had been feeling for the last couple of days out of her system. The pure relief of it all made her tired but still happy. She thought back to the disgusted look on her mother's face she had seen when they had brushed by each other near the mansion. Whatever Kid had done after she ran out must have been good, good enough to ruin her Mother's mood. She giggled happily at the thought before slipping into some pajamas still warm from the dryer.
