"- and that is about it!"

"Now I'm going to hand over the file of the person that you're going to watch over for the rest of their lives, okay?"

Everyone gives a small nod. They've just finished their training, and the nerves they felt throughout their body could not be summed up with just that word.

"If you have any questions feel free to come to my office" he says with a small smile and leaves.

Kita and Aran seemed completely composed. How could they not? They both studied together, they knew the rulebook like the back of their hand and prepared themselves for the worst case scenarios.

They were ready for this.

No they weren't.

Aran and Kita look at their files confused.

"Do you have the same thing listed here?"

Aran leans over to look, "Yeah that's weird, I've asked others and they don't have that."

"Should we go ask?"

"I think that's for the best," Aran says with a nod.

They head over to the office and knock on the door.

"Come in."

"Sorry to bother, but we have a question."

"You two?" he says amused, "Why would you guys have a question?"

Aran puts his hand behind his neck, "We're just a bit confused."

He softly chuckles, "Alright what's your question?"

Kita hands over his file and turns over the last page.

"Is this a typo?"

He gives it a glance and notices the sentence in bold letters.

No soulmate assigned.

"Ah.. Aran do you have the same thing?"

Aran gives him a slight nod.

"That's not a typo."

"What exactly do you mean?"

"We learned the first week of class that everyone has a soulmate," Kita says confused.

He looks at the both of them crossing his arms, leaning back on his chair. "There are some exceptions."

"Sir...?"

"Kuroo."

"What?"

"It's Kuroo," he says with a smile, "You're graduated, we're colleagues, don't call me sir."

"Okay si- Kuroo," Kita says, correcting himself.

"Can you explain?"

"Hm...Those two do not have soulmates assigned to them."

"Meaning?"

"Meaning you will only watch over them."

"They have no soulmate in this life, can I see your files?"

They hand it to him.

"Yeah, okay." Kuroo says after looking through the whole thing.

"These two will not have soulmates. Indefinitely."

"You mean...they won't have a soulmate in any life?" Aran says in disbelief.

"Exactly."

"WHY?" Aran outbursts.
