Demanda
"We have a new student," Mrs. Hunter announces to us. "You can come in now."
The classroom door opens for a tall, blond boy with dark green eyes a green mask and a small smile to come through Once our eyes meet. I feel a stinging on my arm, but can't look away from his eyes.
"I'm your teacher Mrs. Sharon Hunter. Please introduce yourself to the class," Mrs. Hunter kindly says.
With his eye still on me he introduces himself, "Mason, Mason Properson"
"Okay Mason, go sit by Demanda. Demanda, please raid your hand," Mrs. Hunter says.
I raise my hand and watch as he comes and sits by me. The second I look away from his gorgeous eyes, I look down at my arm that now has a green star with four points. I look at Mason to see he has the same, but in orange.
I feel something grasp my hand and look to see Mason holding my hand. I can't help to blush that creeps into my face though thanks to my mask it isn't visible to many people. Though from the look Mason gives me, I can guess he saw it. I walk to my next class, study hall, after Science with Mason following me.
"Why are you following me?" I ask genuinely curious.
"I got my schedule changed to match yours except for your first period," he tells me.
"Why?"
"Because your my soulmate, the person I belong with is you," he says pulling me closer.
Before I know it, our lips gently brush against one another. Even though it was very short, I loved it. I guess that was a good way to have a first kiss.
"So, what class do we have now my dear Demanda?" Mason asks me.
"We have a study hall," I tell him our kiss still in my mind.
"Great," he says pulling me along. "Do any of your friends also have this for study hall?"
"Bly does," I tell him.
"De, can you help me with my math?" I hear Bly say from behind me.
"Only if you'll help me with my my science," I tell her.
"Who's this," Bly asks as she pulls us to the library table.
"This is Mason," I tell her.
"Let me guess," Mason starts. "This is Bly."
"Yep," Bly says popping the 'p' and nodding at him.
As I begin to help Bly with her math, she stops me and grabs my arm.
"When'd you get your binding mark De?" Bly asks. When I don't answer she says, "Demanda Madison Truence, when did you get your binding mark?" Bly demands wanting to know if my soulmate is good enough for me.
"Today in Science, okay?" I tell her.
"Wait a minute," she says putting it together. "Is it that Mason boy?"
"Yes it is," I tell her.
"Do you like him?"
"Oh course I do. He is sweet, teases me some, and is super cute from what I can tell," I say dreamily.
"Nice to know you think so highly of me," Mason says from behind me.
He gently grabs me by the arm and pull me behind one of the book shelves.
"Can I see your face?" he asks tilting his head to the side slightly.
I don't answer and just pull up my mask and he does the same. He's super handsome. I can't believe my soulmate is this great!

Mason
"We have a new student," the teacher announced before addressing me with, "You can come in now."
I open the classroom door and walk through. When I turn around me eye meet with beautiful blue ones. I get a quick glimpse of the rest of her decent hight, light brown hair, orange mask. I stare into her blue eyes.
"I'm your teacher Mrs. Sharon Hunter. Please introduce yourself to the class," the teacher, Mrs. Hunter, says kindly.
With my eyes still on the gorgeous girl, I introduce myself, "Mason, Mason Properson"
"Okay Mason, go sit by Demanda. Demanda, please raid your hand," Mrs. Hunter says to me.
I see the gorgeous girl I locked eye with raise her hand, so I smile at her and walk over to her. I sit beside her then look down following Demanda's gaze to her arm. She has a binding mark there of a four pointed star in my favorite color. From there it flicks to mine arm where there is a matching one in orange.
I grab her hand closest to me. She blushes at me after looking at our linked hands. I look at her with fondness upon seeing her blush. I had texted my parents to get them to make my schedule match my Demanda's. I follow her knowing that she has already had choir.
"Why are you following me?" she asks me in an adorable, curious way.
"I got my schedule changed to match yours except for your first period," I tell her.
"Why?"
"Because your my soulmate, the person I belong with is you," I say pulling her closer to me.
I gently kiss her, so she'll let me. I make it short and sweet hoping she won't resent me.
"So, what class do we have now my dear Demanda?" I ask trying to district her.
"We have a study hall," she says looking far away.
"Great," I say and pull my soulmate after me. "Do any of your friends also have this for study hall?"
"Bly does," she says.
"De This person gave her a nickname?, can you help me with my math?" someone says behind my Demanda.
"Only if you'll help me with my my science I could help her too," Demanda says.
"Who's this," the girl whom I'm guessing is Bly says as we sit at a table in the library.
"This is Mason I like how that sounds coming from her," my Demanda says.
"Let me guess," I start. "This is Bly."
"Yep," the girl, Bly, says nodding while popping the 'p'.
I walk a short distance away until I see Bly grab my Demanda's arm.
"...Demanda Madison Truence, when did you get your binding mark?" Bly demands wanting from my Demanda.
"Today in Science, okay?" she says.
"Wait a minute," Bly says putting it together. "Is it that Mason boy?"
"Yes it is," my Demanda says.
"Do you like him?"
"Oh course I do. He is sweet, teases me some, and is super cute she likes me this much? from what I can tell," she says dreamily.
"Nice to know you think so highly of me," I say from behind the girls.
I gently grabs my Demanda by the arm and pull her behind one of the book cases.
"Can I see your face?" I ask, curiosity getting the better of me.
She pulls her mask off and I do the same. I look to she a amazingly pretty girl in front of me. Without thinking, I kiss her.
