I decided to write a short story!(Soul Eater)
This story is told by Soul.
Enjoy and let me know what you think!

I have just come home from Shibusen, and although I have mountains of homework to finish, my eyes are glaring at Maka instead of the towering papers and books.
She's comfortably sunken in the sofa, reading a thick book that looks as though I would never be able to finish it even in a hundred years.

I am currently burning with jealousy.
I KNOW it's not a thing that a 'COOL' guy would do, so don't even think about reminding me.

"Hey Maka."
"What?" She answers.
Her face is hidden by the book as usual.
Geez, I'm the one talking here! You don't have to close the book, so at least put your head up!

"You were talking with Black Star and Kid cheerfully today at school. What were you guys talking about?"
I don't fancy her being all friendly with them.
The smile that Maka showed to them is stuck in my head like a leech and won't go away.

"Nothing really, Kid-kun and Black Star was just asking me what kind of accessories girls like."
Then she chuckled softly as though she remembered something.

"What?"
You can't forgive the girl you like to show her sweet smile at a guy other than yourself.
"Seems like it's Liz's birthday soon, and Kid wants to buy her an accessory for her present, and I just remembered his desperate face when he asked if there were any perfectly symmetrical one."

Oh, so that's it.
"He doesn't change at all."
I keep on a cool face, although I was greatly relieved by her answer.
"Do you like accessories, Maka?"
As I offered her a choice of her birthday present, Maka raised her head from her book and dropped her mouth open like I said something really stupid.

"What?"
"Nothing. It's weird for Soul to say something like that. You usually don't."
"Really?" Is that true? I always try to be nice to her...
"Well, it's not that I don't like it, but I never buy them my self."

Hmm, if I recall, I don't see her wearing them often either.
"Then I will buy something for you. What do you want? A necklace? A bracelet?"
".....A ring."

A ring?
Maka isn't really the type to wear a ring though...
As I stared at her thinking hard to work out why she would want a ring, Maka gradually turned bright red to her ears.
"! You were just thinking I wasn't the type to wear rings!"

Wha... She figured it out.
How did she do that?

"It's fine if I don't suit them!"
Why get so mad?

"You're gonna buy me a ring! It's a promise!"
I can see she's avoiding my eye contact.
"And when you do buy it, put it on this finger for me!"
The finger that she stuck out in front of me was....the fourth finger.... of her left hand...

As I worked out the meaning, I couldn't help my self to grin and feel like teasing her.
Even though I was so happy that I could have died.
"Ok, I'll buy it for you. But there is one condition."

"A condition?"
She looked at me with a disappointed look on her face.
"Yep, if you want me to buy a ring, and put it on that finger for you..."
I poked my own cheek with my cheesy grin spread across my face.
"Kiss."

The moment Maka heard the word, she blushed as though she was a radish ready to be cooked.
"Idiot."
As her arms stretched forwards and touched my cheeks softly, I felt certain that I was the happiest guy in the whole entire universe that night.
