Love In Fallby *zaiduck

Fan Art / Manga & Anime / Digital / Movies & TV

Don't mind me, finishing sketches from forever ago so I can get to ~~hopefully~~ better sketches I just scanned in.

Oops, extra mini side CroMa drabble with this since that is how my mind works and I feel like actually sharing the story behind the drawing this time, also relevant since it seems school is starting up soon. Not that it matters to me, but of course it wasn't long ago that I would get excited for the first day of school. Take this as an AU since I'm pretty sure Shibusen/DWMA doesn't work like most American school systems, plus I like that kind of freedom.

Maka adjusted the ribbons in her hair as she waited at the bus stop. She smiled contently as she played with her knapsack gently letting it sway in front of her against her legs. A new school year, the thought always brought excitement to the studious young girl. Her appetite for knowledge was insatiable and one can only spend so much time at the library studying by themselves. That was the other part of course, being able to socialize with others in a language she can actually partake in. Not that it wasn't fun to relax by the pool with her friends or hang out in various places, it's just nice to change the topic to something where they could all benefit.

She heard the halting of the bus' brakes as it turned the corner. Appearing around the corner as well in the opposite direction was her friend Soul, looking quite disheveled and unprepared for school. He came running up next to her as the bus inched to a stop.

He grinned widely at her as he gasped for his breath. "Thanks for sending me that text this morning, even though six in the morning seems a bit on the early side to get ready for school."

She rolled her eyes as she stepped onto the bus, Soul following behind. "Some of us actually like to bathe and be prepared before leaving the house."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever," he dismissed with a wave of his hand. "I'm all natural, I don't need an hour or two to look good. Or in your case decent," he teased.

True that Soul could get any girl, probably most of the male population as well, that he wanted, it was no secret about his fanclub at school even. Maka thought it was all ridiculous, but at least Soul was actually a decent guy.

Speaking of decent guys, Soul grabbed her by the arm and gave her a small shove in the direction of lavender tinged locks. "Hey, at least you know someone finds you attractive, say hello to your bf for me," he whispered giving her a smirk as he sat himself down next to Black Star who was messing with Kid in the seat in front.

Maka's cheeks filled with warmth. Of course Crona wasn't her boyfriend, how could she even think of something like that with all the thoughts of being top of the class so she can go to a top notch college. She couldn't think of how sweet his smile was, and how gentle yet sad his eyes looked. Or how his lips moved softly as he spoke, to perhaps mimic the way they would feel against hers. No, her mind never wondered such silly wonderful things, not at all.

It was a relief to see Crona again. She knew it was hard for him to adjust after what he's been through with his mother. Somehow she managed to have custody of him once again over the summer and try as Maka might, she couldn't see much of him. "Hey there Crona," she smiled at him giving him a small wave as she seated herself next to him.

Crona jumped slightly at the acknowledgement, then blushed as he noticed her. He fiddled with his scarf before answering her. "H-hi Maka, sorry I couldn't be with everyone over the summer."

"It's okay, I'm happy with the time we did spend together," she said, subconsciously placing her hand on his. He smiled at her answer.

He tentatively looked away and muttered something just out of Maka's hearing range. "What was that Crona?" They jolted forward with the bus' momentum as it came to a stop in the school parking lot.

Maka grabbed her things and stood up, still expecting Crona to answer. "U-um... I-I said, that... maybe we could hang out together after school?" he asked as he fluffed the back of his hair barely able to look at Maka as he stood up next to her.

She smiled and pretended to think about it for a moment before grabbing an end of his scarf and wrapping it around her and pulling him in by his hands. "I'd love to Crona."

Bleh, I present my mind wonderful people who reads this. I would so make an entire "High School" AU for Soul Eater if it weren't so cliched to do so and people didn't find it boring...

And dear lord, if there are any mistakes on this forgive me as it is one in the morning and for some reason I though tit would be a good idea to write my stupid thought out.

Anyway, I have more to finish drawing, I'm actually drawing more Homestuck fanart, can you believe that?

I can't.
