Ch 11

The next morning Soul awoke content and happy for the first time in what felt like years. The last two weeks felt like nothing more than a faraway dream. He took a deep breath and reached to wrap Maka in his arms again. His arms met with empty sheets as they crossed the bed making his head snap up in shock.

"Maka?" The bed was empty.

*No… It wasn't a dream. It couldn't have been a dream! That amazing night had felt so real. It had to have been real!!* His heart pounded in his ears as he jumped out of bed, ran across his room, wrenched open the door and flew into the hallway wearing nothing but a pair of boxers.

"MAKA!!"

"What?!"

Soul breathed a sigh of relief and steadied himself with a hand against the wall. Omelets sizzled happily in a pan filling the small apartment with their heavenly aroma. Maka stood in the kitchen wearing his discarded shirt from the previous night as she tended their breakfast. He crossed the kitchen and hugged her from behind.

"You looked so peaceful I didn't want to disturb you just yet. What day is it anyway?"

"Friday." Soul said as he nuzzled Maka's neck and shoulder.

"Friday?! What about class? Maka cried as she looked at the closest clock which read 8:30.

"Fuck it" Soul said simply while shrugging. Maka sighed with irritation at her partner but let it go. Normally she'd insist on rushing out the door to school even though classes had started an hour ago but this was not a normal day. She HAD just recovered after all and had already missed 2 weeks. What was one more day? *Oh, that reminds me!*

"Soul?"

"hmmmm…?"

"You DID remember to get my assignments and take notes for me, right?"

Soul hesitated. No he hadn't. Of course he hadn't. She had been dead these last two weeks for Shinigami's sake! He hadn't even done any work himself during that time. He tightly closed his eyes against the rising memories. He didn't want to think about that anymore. He still wasn't sure how she was with him right now but, to be honest, he didn't care how and he was scared to question it. He wasn't alone anymore and that was all that mattered. But how could he explain this to her? 'No I didn't because I was going out of my mind with grief'? He'd rather just pretend the last few weeks hadn't happened.

"Soul?"

"No….. sorry" Was all he could come up with. So lame but it'd have to do for now.

Predictably, Maka was disgusted.

"Soul! How can I catch up properly if I don't have anything from the days I missed?! Ugh, first I wake up at my DAD's of all places, now I'm going to fall behind at school! How can I be a great scythe meister if I can't even keep my grades up? ….. "

Soul let go of Maka and sat down at the table as she continued on with her rant.

"I dunno Maka, maybe you can ask Tsubaki or Ox to bring you up to speed." He interjected as he stifled a yawn. She shot an angry look at Soul before joining him at the table with the omelets. They ate for a few moments in silence when something Maka had said sank in.

"Wait…. What were you doing at your dad's?"

"I woke up there yesterday. Didn't you know I was there?"
As promised Chapter 11!

A lot shorter than chapter 10 but I really like this chapter. Look for Chapter 12 on Wednesday. As always thank you for reading!

As always Soul Eater is not mine and neither is the picture (I really need to draw something). This time the adorable picture is by d4nch
