TW // Remus angst
--Remus' POV--
One night, Logan and I were in bed together. Just cuddling. He was softly playing with my hair. In concept, this moment was perfect. In practice, not so much. Something was tormenting my mind.
"Is everything okay, Re?" Logan asked, clearly noticing that I was being quieter than normal. I sighed.
"Do you think the soulmate system ever makes mistakes?" I asked softly. I love Logan. I love him with my entire heart. He was always the only one I felt this way with. But lately there have been a couple other guys that have given me the same feeling. The butterflies in my stomach, the racing heart, the weird temptation to laugh at every joke they make, even if I don't fully get it or if it's not that funny. It was always just Logan.. but now it's these other guys too. Does that make me a bad soulmate?? A bad boyfriend?? A bad person??
Logan turned me around so I was facing him.
"Where is this coming from? I hope you don't mean you think our relationship is a mistake" he asked, extremely close to tears, the most vulnerable I've ever seen him.
"No, no, no, no, that's not what I meant at all, I love you so much, what we have definitely isn't a mistake" I told him, pulling him closer and kissing him softly. "What I meant was... do you think it's possible for someone to have more than one soulmate?"
"Oh, it's definitely possible. It's happened several times before. It's called 'Triangle Soulmates', and when their swap occurs, Soulmate A is transported to where Soulmate B was, Soulmate B is transported to where Soulmate C was, and Soulmate C is transported to where Soulmate A was" he explained, using that voice he always uses to explain things. I like that voice. It's stern and factual, but still soft.
"No, I know about triangle soulmates, one of my childhood best friends is one of them, actually. I meant like... is it possible for four people to be soulmates and not know it unless they coincidentally cross paths.. like Soulmate A swaps places with Soulmate B, and Soulmate C swaps places with Soulmate D?" I asked
"I mean, I suppose. It's probably pretty rare, but I don't see a reason it would be impossible. Why do you ask?" he responded, seeming genuinely curious about my theory
"Well ya know the feeling I get around you? Like how my stomach churns, but in a good way, and my heart feels like it's beating really fast and I just want to curl up in your arms and stay there forever and cover you in kisses and grow old with you and have a family together?" I asked
"Yeah, I know what you mean, I feel the exact same way around you" he responded
"Well you were always the only one that I felt like that with in my whole 19 years of life, but there's these two guys in my intro to romantic novelization class that are each others soulmates and I get a similar feeling around them" I told him softly "sorry if it makes you uncomfortable that I like other people too"
He hugged me. "I love you and you having an interest in other people isn't going to change that. To be honest, I'm a bit relieved because I met a guy in my planetary studies class that made me feel like that and I was feeling guilty about it" he whispered in my ear
"Really? Who was it?" I asked, not out of jealousy, but out of curiosity. If my theory about multiple soulmates was true, then logically the guy he was talking about must be one of the two guys I was talking about.
"Patton Carter" he responded. My jaw dropped. "What?" he asked with a small chuckle
"He's one of the guys I was talking about..." I told him
