A Resonance of Love

Chapter 1

Maka's POV

It was another boring day at school. Soul and I sat through Stein's boring lectures on how to dissect exotic birds. Then we went to our battle class which was just paperwork since Sid was on vacation. It was very long day. We had an extra class though that worried me. It was our resonance class. When I was resonating with Soul, I felt a disturbance in his soul. For the rest of the day it was bothering me. I just had to wait till we got home. Finally we got home it was 3:00 P.M. We still had the night ahead of us.

I flopped down on the couch. "Hey, Soul. When we resonated today, I felt a disturbance in your soul. Everything okay?" I asked kindly. His cheeks turned a light shade of pink before he turned and walked off to his room. "Oh, yeah. It's nothin'." He said. Oh, well. He probably just saw Blair naked last night or something. I got my backpack and did my homework. It only took an hour so I was still really bored. I guess I would see what Soul was up to. I walked to his room and gave a quiet knock on his door and turned the handle. "Hi, Soul. Whatcha up to?" I asked. He looked at me surprised like he had never seen me before. As usual he was just in his boxers. "Oh, hey Maka. Nothing." He simply replied. "I'm bored. Can we do something?" I asked with a bright smile. "Sure. Wanna go watch a movie? That's what cool guys do when their bored." He said. "Yeah, sure, cool guy." I joked.

We walked to the couch and sat down. We turned on the T.V. and we searched for movies. Of course we found Soul's favourite movie, which I hated, Bloody Shadows. I was already scared. I got up and got a blanket, sat back down and sighed. "Do we really have to watch Bloody Shadows?" I whimpered. "Yep." He snickered. I wrapped myself in the comforting blanket and sat next to Soul.

About half way I was scared soulless. "S-Soul... turn it off... please!" I begged hiding under the blanket. I felt an arm go aroun me and pull me into a hug. Soul released me from the hug but pulled me into his chest. "Don't worry, your weapon is here, remember. I will protect you, but there's nothing really to protect you from." He sighed. I snuggled into his chest as I saw the gruesome sight of a man being slaughtered by his own shadow. I trembled but Soul put a hand on my shoulder to comfort me. I inhaled to calm down and got a lung full of Soul's scent. I loved his smell. He smelled like a mix of cologne and hair gel. His hair is so handsome. Wait! What am I saying. You can't fall in love with your weapon! You know what will happen, it will be like Mama and Papa! I mentally slapped myself and I guess I mumbled something because Soul looked down at me worried. "What's wrong, Soul?" I asked curiously. "You just said Baka  outloud." He said with a concerned voice. "Oh, sorry. I was thinking about..." I paused. I can't lie to Soul! What do I say? "About what?" He asked. "About my Papa. He is such an idiot!" I yelled. "Hey, Maka. Why don't we go to bed? I mean tomorrow is Saturday and we're supposed to get coffee with Kid, Liz, and Patty in the morning." He said. Soul? Wants to go to bed early?! Something really is bothering him. I will see if it's something with Kid in the morning. "Okay." I say.

We walked to our rooms to get ready for bed. I was just about to take my clothes off when I remembered that I left the laundry in Soul's room. I opened my door and twisted his door handle. I opened the door to see Soul naked. I felt heat rushing up to my cheeks and my eyes widen. He knew what I came in for and handed me the laundry basket, though I couldn't take my eyes off of him. "Stop staring! I know it's small!" He yelled. "No, I can't. It's huge..." I said realizing I just made things more akward. I slowly backed out of the room and sank to my knees as Soul slammed the door. I quickly got up and ran to my room with some clothes I picked out of the basket. I closed my door and changed. I! m so sorry Soul! Please forgive me!
