Soul's P.O.V
I watch as Kid and Maka talk in class and sigh. I'm sitting right next to her but she hasn't acknowledged me yet. I sigh and am about to look away from the two when i see something that stops my heart. I narrow my eyes as I see Maka blush. I remember her blushing this morning in the bathroom. Why is she blushing around Kid? Why do I care so much?
The bell rings, signaling the end of class and I watch as Maka stands up suddenly and practically runs out of class. She almost never leaves without me. I roll my eyes and brush off the strange feeling overcoming me. I pick up my books and watch, startled, as Kid gets up and leaves just as quick as Maka had. I shake my head and grimace. So uncool...
Maka's P.O.V.
I slow my quik pace as I reach the doors to the DWMA's library and pull them open. I smile as I walk into my favorite room in this school. The library has three stories and I walk up to the second one. I walk down the countless aisles of books , glancing over the titles of the books written on their spines until I find the one book I'm looking for.
Soul Resonance between Meisters. I had been curious about the subject ever since Kid, Blackstar, and I had tried to link soul wavelengths in the clearing that day. I sat down on a nearby couch and open the book.
It is possible for two close meisters to link souls. These meisters are at a great risk though. If one of the meister's weapons have a tense relationsgip with the meister apart from their own, the wavlength between meister and weapon can be damaged. There is also a risk for the actual relation ship between the two meisters trying to link souls.
I stopped reading with a sigh and shake my head. I get up and as I'm walking down the stairs to check out the book, I feel a soul behind me and turn around, much too fast. I can feel myself falling backwards as I squeeze my eyes shut, waiting for impact.
I open my eyes curiously after a few seconds. All I can see is black and a bit of white. I can feel a soft, matrial under my hands. I frown in confusion. Nothing happened. I feel the prescence of that same soul and look up into two, familiar golden eyes. Kid... I realize one of his arms is around my waist and his other arm is around my shoulders. I'm facing him and my hands are on his chest.
He must have grabbed me from the front as I was falling. I can't speak. It's like my thraot has closed up from the surprise of the moment. I realize with a start that Kid is shaking. I frown, concerned but still can't speak.
"Maka? Are you alright?" Kid asks, still not releasing his tight hold on me. I simply nod my head and he touches my cheek with his hand. I notice that I had been crying. He wipes away my tears and lets me go.
"T-Thank you." I manage to whisper. Kid nods and looks away from me. I blush a little as I remember his embrace. Then I remeber something. Why had Kid been following me?
"I'm sorry if I startled you. It's just, when I saw you fall-" Kid starts, his voice shaking. I wordlessly walk over to him and place my hand on his shoulder, turning him so he can look at me.
"Thank you so much Kid." I say smiling lightly. I watch as Kid's face reddens and I blush a little too.
"Maka?" I hear a voice from behind me say. I turn around and see Soul watching Kid and I from the doorway to the library. I release my hold on Kid and turn to face him. Soul walks over to us and looks back and forth from me to Kid.
"It's getting late. We should probably go home." Soul says simply, glaring at Kid. I turn to Kid and see him return the gesture as Soul takes my hand and pulls me to the door. But I don't want to leave Kid yet.
