Soulmate AU based around Kuroken: An AU where if you lose something, your soulmate finds it. Kuroo keeps finding random ends and odds in his home, as does Kenma. But when Kenma loses something important of his, it's up to his soulmate to return it s...
"Butterscotch..! Where did you go..." I grumbled, sighing as I checked everywhere. I was just about to head out to look for him when I heard a meow. I turned my head and saw him wander over to me.
"There you are." I said, picking him up as he meowed. I gave him a pat on the head before setting him down and crossing my arms.
"Okay... One out of the two things I've lost since last night..." I said with a tired sigh. I don't understand how I even lost the ring I had. I was wearing it when I went to bed last night...?? I'm positive I had it on. Ugh... I liked that ring. I hope I find it.
Kuroo's POV
I sighed, tapping my fingers on my desk. I never knew that Tsukishima was so curious about his soulmate... I don't take it personal. If that's what he wanted, he needed to do it. And I hope he found whoever they were and he's happier. But, leaves me by myself... again.
Huh... Speaking of alone.. I need to go to the pharmacy. I called and got a refill on my anti-depressant and it was ready. I dragged myself out of my seat and pulled on a sweatshirt before heading out. I'd drive, but my car was low on gas and I was too tired to stop and refill it at the moment.
As I was walking, I nearly got tripped by something. I looked down and saw a cat. What is it with this universe and cats?
"Well, at least you aren't Kenma's. Let's see, do you have any tags?" I said, careful to pick up the random black cat.
"Oh, you're a boy. Okay, well, I don't see a collar. What is in your mouth though?" I said, holding him in one arm and trying to get whatever he was holding in his mouth out with the other. He spit it out into my palm, making me scrunch my nose.
"...Thanks. Hey, is this a ring?" I said to myself, the cat meowing at me. Where the hell did a cat get a ring? This looked like the ring Kenma wore. Surely it wasn't actually Kenma's though, right?? I set the cat down and grabbed my phone, giving Kenma a call.
"Hello?"
"Hey, did you by chance lose your ring???"
"Yeah, how'd you know??"
"You wouldn't believe me, but I found a cat carrying it around."
"What?"
"A black cat. And, I'm guessing the ring is yours?"
"Weird."
"I'll come bring the ring over."
"What about the cat?"
"What about it?"
"Does it have an owner??"
"Not that I see."
"Bring the cat too please." Kenma requested. I sighed, hanging up and picking the cat back up. He looked at me with big eyes as I grumbled.
"You're lucky Kenma is a cat person, or I would've left you here." I said, carrying the cat in one arm all the way to Kenma's apartment. When I got there, I set the cat down who immediately ran over to Butterscotch. I watched the two for a bit before giving the ring to Kenma.
"Yeah, this is my ring." He said with a faint smile. I nodded curiously as I looked back at the cats who decided to cuddle up together.

"I wonder how that black cat got a hold of it."
"Yeah, I have no idea. But, thank you for finding it for me... It's special."
"Oh?"
"My, uh, my soulmate gave it to me."
"Did you find them?"
"Sort of."
"What do you mean?" I asked with a tilted head, Kenma looking away with a breath.
Kenma's POV
I dunno if I should tell him. I mean, maybe he wouldn't care and he'd just dismiss it. He's said he hasn't really cared. What if he would be disappointed or something if he knew that I was his soulmate?
"Kenma?"
"Huh?"
"You okay?" He asked a bit concerned. I looked down at the ring in my hands before sighing. What else do I have to lose?
"I'm okay.. But, yeah. my soulmate gave it to me. And I know who he is."
"Does he know who you are??"
"No..."
"Oh, are you gonna tell him?"
"..If you were in this situation, what would you do?"
"I dunno. I guess I'd tell 'em."
"Really?"
"Sure."
"Okay. You were my soulmate."
"Yeah, like that."
"....No.. Kuroo. You were my soulmate." I repeated, Kuroo blinking a few times before looking like he finally processed what I just said.
"Wait, what-?"
"..You were the one who gave me the ring."
"...I am???"
"Yeah."
"Have we met before?"
"Mhm." I mumbled, Kuroo looking quite puzzled. I couldn't tell what he was really thinking. Was he upset? Or was he just surprised or something..?? Maybe I shouldn't have told him.
"Sorry, Kuroo. I know it's probably... weird for you to hear."
"No, it's okay, it just, yeah it's a little weird to hear."
"Well, I know you're dating Tsukishima. I wasn't telling you to try and get you to leave him or anything. But, I guess I thought that it would be nice for you to know."
"Actually.. Tsukishima and I broke up."
"You did?"
"Yeah. He wanted to find his soulmate."
"Oh... I'm sorry."
"No need to be sorry. If he wanted to do that, then he should. I hope he does." Kuroo said with a small smile. I nodded slightly before clearing my throat.
"So... er.. what do you, want to do with this uh, information?" I asked quietly, Kuroo sighing gently and looking back over at the two cats. I have no idea who that black cat belonged to, but, at least he and Butterscotch were getting along.
"What do you want to do with this information..?"
"..I don't know."
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
"I don't know.. am I?"
"Are you thinking we should give it a try??" Kuroo asked with a small smile. I nodded and looked up at him.
