Soulmates Do exist

Jake

             I look up in excitement at the Wonders of Art institute's performing arts building. I am so happy that after all the time and effort spent on practicing, I got into the college of my dreams. I still feel like I am dreaming right now. Let me back up and introduce myself. My name is Jake Perwell and I am 18 years old. I was born with a soulmate and am excited to meet them. Ever since I was young and learned what a soulmate was it has been one of my dreams to meet them.

             Now that I am older I am starting to lose hope in finding my soulmate, but mom says to say positive and that everything will work out. I hope she is right when saying that because I have not had any successful relationships once they find out about the soulmate. Anyway back to my school life. Moving into the dorms has been very stressful as I had no one to help me move in. I sure hope I can make new friends here. My first day of class is in an hour and I am very nervous as I heard my new professor is extremely strict.

             By the time I'm finished unpacking I am almost late for class. As I am running to class I bump into a very handsome guy. "Hey! Watch where you're going, man." He shouts at me as I fall. "Sorry, but it wasn't only my fault that we bumped into each other," I say to him. Meanwhile, in my head, I am cursing him out. He just sighs angrily and walks away not even bothering to help me up. When I get up I find out I'm late for class. "SHIT!" I yell out and start sprinting. When I get to class my professor yells at me and starts to lecture us about why we shouldn't be late for important classes like this.

             When class is finally over I'm exhausted and just want to go to bed. All of a sudden I see the jerk that bumped into me laughing with his friends. I am about to go over and yell at him in front of everyone when my two close friends Matt and Lily jump next to me and start yelling in my ears about why I was late. "Why were you late J?" Matt says to me using the nickname I've had since I was little. "Yeah, why were you late?" Lily asks as well. "That jerk in the middle of that laughing group, bumped into me causing me to fall. Then he yelled at me and walked away." I complained angrily.

        "Don't, you know who that is?" Lily and Matt say at the same time. "That's Mark Lowes!" Lily says in shock. "Who's Mark Lowes?" I question them. "Mark Lowes is a third-year music major, who is also the visual king of two years straight," Matt states in awe. I can't believe that jerk is famous for his looks and major. First off performing arts is better and he isn't even that handsome as well. The group notices us staring and waves for us to come over. I start shaking my head but, my friends are already dragging me over to their table. " Can I know the reason you are staring at us?" the guy on the left of Mark asks. "Yeah, I'm staring at an overconfident jerk and his ok looking friends," I state annoyed. "Whoa, dude I don't know what your problem is but that was rude." The guy on Marks's right says. I don't pay attention to him though because Mark is staring at me like I'm the most interesting thing he's ever seen.

     When I realize that we were staring at each other I look away from him. "Then he opens his mouth and says "I'm Mark the guy to my left is Ethan and the guy to my right is Isaiah. So, want to tell us why you are so mean to us." "No," I reply and walk away.
