Maka sighed,entering her and Soul's apartment. She turned the lights on,then placed her guitar on the couch.

"Am I gonna go here alone forever now ?" She asked to no one in particular,sitting on the couch beside her guitar. She turned to it,a slight frown crossing her lips. "I knew I should've told him… I'm such an idiot…"

She raised her knees,hugging them close to her chest. She was staring at the table,when Soul's chord book met her gaze. Yep,she was pretty bored since last week cause Soul gets home late with his girlfriend,and she was going home all by herself since then. And it upsets her a lot.

She was reading the chord book a lot. Knowing Soul can't teach her now,she had to learn by herself. And now,she can easily switch chords and sing at once.

Maka turned back to her guitar,sighing. She decided to grab it,place her feet down and place the guitar on her lap. "Guess one song won't hurt.." She smiled,then started strumming.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Soul was on his way home. He sighed,scratching his head. "Maka's better than that b*tch…" He grumbled. "Good thing I broke up with her already." He cockily grinned to himself. He was thinking of how happy Maka could be,knowing she had to do stuff they do together alone.

And even if she doesn't mention it,he knows that she was upset about something. He wanted to figure out the reason,but she just goes silent and goes to her room everytime he asks.

It worries him. The fact the he loves her makes him. He only accepted the other girl to try and move on,but… No work at all.

He was near the apartment when he heard guitar strumming. And singing. The voice was soft,and it's obvious that it was being sang with feelings.

"Cause he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who
He's the song in the car
I keep singing, don't know why I do…"

Soul knew it was her. He walked to the door,opening it silently and saw Maka strumming the guitar. Her eyes were closed,with tears silently making their way to her cheeks and dropping on her guitar. Just like the song's title.

Soul watched as she continued to sing the next two lines. He knew the song she was singing. It was her favorite,for some reason he doesn't know.

"Cause he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar.."

"The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart,"

Soul joined in,making Maka open her eyes. Her green orbs landed on his red ones as Soul leaned against the door frame. Soul showed his toothy grin,a signal for her to continue.

"He's the song in the car
I keep singing,don't know why I do.."

Soul went over and sat beside her,as Maka continued to strum the guitar.

"He's the time taken up
But it's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into.."

Maka stopped strumming,before standing up,and looking away. She knew he would ask why she's crying,so it's better not to continue the song until to it's end. She ran to her room,then locked the door.

"Maka,hey ! Wait !" Soul yelled,running after her. He stopped right in front of her door,sighing and placing his forehead on the door.

"Please… Why won't you tell what's wrong ? Maybe I can help…" He mumbled. Maka leaned against the door,hugging her knees. "You want answers ? Fine…"

Soul perked up. Maka took a deep sigh,then spoke up. "That song's my favorite… Because…"

Soul leaned closer to the door. Maka sighed sadly,wiping her tears off as new ones dropped.

"I love you… And you're the guy in the song…"

Soul's eyes widened. Maka silently sat behind the door separating them both,feeling like she wanted to take the words back. Especially when she heard footsteps fading. "I knew it… He'd leave…"

Soul went to the couch,then grabbed Maka's guitar. Then,he went back to Maka's door,sighing deeply. "I'm not gonna let you have a solo song. I'll sing too." He adjusted the guitar. "Listen up."

He started strumming the guitar. Maka looked startled,knowing the song. They both knew each other's favorites,and she knows that he's playing his favorite now.

"I don't want another pretty face
I don't want just anyone to hold
I don't want my love to go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul.."

Soul continued to strum the guitar,sighing slightly. Maka stood up slightly,taking the doorknob of her room and thinking if she should open the door.

"I know that you are something special
To you I'd be always faithful
I want to be what you always needed
Then I hope you'll see the heart in me

I don't want another pretty face
I don't want just anyone to hold
I don't want my love to go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul
You're the one I wanna chase
You're the one I wanna hold
I won't let another minute go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul
Your beautiful soul, yeah

You might need time to think it over
But I'm just fine moving forward
I'll ease your mind
If you give me the chance
I will never make you cry c'mon let's try.."

Maka opened the door,looking at him. Soul looked back at her green eyes,before smiling slightly.

"I don't want another pretty face
I don't want just anyone to hold
I don't want my love to go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul
You're the one I wanna chase
You're the one I wanna hold
I won't let another minute go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul~"

As the instrumental part went by,Maka can't help but to get surprised at the situation. She can't even think it's real. For someone as Soul,to sing a love song right in front of her ? It was unbelievable for her.

"Am I crazy for wanting you?
Maybe do you think you could want me too?
I don't wanna waste your time
Do you see things the way I do?
I just wanna know that you feel it too
There is nothing left to hide

I don't want another pretty face
I don't want just anyone to hold
I don't want my love to go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul
You're the one I wanna chase
You're the one I wanna hold
I won't let another minute go to waste
I want you and your soul

I don't want another pretty face
I don't want just anyone to hold
I don't want my love to go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul

Ooooooo Beautiful soul, yeah

Oooooo, yeah
Your beautiful soul
Yeah.."

Soul did the last strums,before stopping and sighing slightly. Maka stood still as Soul placed the guitar down, then walked closer to her. He smiled,taking her hands. "So… The song said it already." He chuckled. Maka blushed,looking up at him. Soul made his toothy grin,chuckling lightly. "So… Can I court you ?"

Maka blinked. "Just like that ?" She asked. Soul blinked. "What ? You love me and I love you back. Yes or no ?"

Maka smiled,standing on her toes to reach him. She leaned in closer,stopping when the distance decreased to an inch.

"Of course. It's a yes."
