my soulmate Kim Seungmin

2

the next week flew by as i continued to speak with my mystery boy, there were many off limit topics such as first names, birthdays and specific locations that the device wouldn't let us talk about, but we knew that we would know these facts soon enough.

berry
hey lover boy! you'll never guess what i did today!

kim
hey babe! hmmm... a haircut? flew to space? bought cereal? camped outside my house?

the boys torrent of silly answers made me laugh as i stared at the screen in adoration.

berry
to be fair... i wish i'd done those things... but nope! even better! my favourite kpop group are doing a world tour and i managed to get tickets for the show in scotland!!!

(hahaha... skz coming to scotland... that's funny)

kim
oooohhhhh, and who might your favourite kpop group be then? 👀

berry
what a silly question, OBVIOUSLY straykids!!

kim
huh! interesting! whose your bias???

berry
seungminnnnnn!! sorry babe i know you'll be the love of my life when i meet you but i don't know if you'll be able to replace him 😜 do you have a bias in skz?

kim
now that's a turn of events... nah, i don't have a bias, they're all a bit too annoying for me. if i HAD to pick one... maybe i.n... little baby bread can do no wrong.

berry
annoying????? ANNOYING???? you're annoying 😤 even my mums obsessed with seungmin and skz, she's coming with me to the concert!

another week came and went and it was time to find out the first piece of locked information.

information unlocked: birthday
kim: 22/09/2000
berry: 01/11/2001

kim
well that's rubbish, i already know your birthday :(

berry
but i didn't know yours! this might sound weird but you've got a really pretty birthday, it suits you

kim
not as pretty as yours, it's all 1's because you're my number 1 ;)

berry
you sappy sod, i can't wait to keep learning new things about you

kim
aw don't you'll make me cry, how can you be so cute when i've never even met you 🥲

berry
well then you'll be severely disappointed when you meet me because im a menace 😈

kim
my menace 💗
i've got to go to practise again now, see you later baby!

berry
bye lover boy! speak later xoxo

i closed my eyes and held the phone close to my chest as i felt myself slowly start to really like this random boy that was half way across the world from me. i worried for when we would ever be able to meet but i knew that i wouldn't be able to stop thinking about him until then.

another 2 weeks past faster than we would like to admit, i spend every waking moment messaging my kim boy about every silly little thing that came to mind and he did the same. it was time to see the next bit of information about each other from the phone.

first name
kim seungmin
berry kayleigh

kayleigh
you're joking... THEE KIM SEUNGMIN?!?!?!?!

seungmin
lolll nah i get that all the time though, just a coincidence 👀

kayleigh
aaaahhh yeah to be fair that makes more sense than my soulmate being a kpop idol, that's not something that happens to random people ahahaha! well it's lovely to finally know your name, my seungmin 💗

seungmin
sorry to disappoint ahahah, i love the name kayleigh, i've never known anyone with that name! i love that it's different for me xoxo

kayleigh
it's pretty common here in scotland, i know a load of people called this. i've never met someone called seungmin though, i think the only people i've heard of with that name is seungmin from stray kids and o.de from xdinary hero's, but they don't really count since i'll never meet them.

seungmin
inferior seungmin 😤 they can't compete with me: the one true seungmin 💪

kayleigh
rigggghhhhtttt lover boy 👀 you keep telling yourself that, you're definitely in my top 3 seungmins xxx

seungmin
i'm hurt! i thought you liked me! i'm meant to be your favourite i'm your soulmate!

kayleigh
oh shush baby you know you'll be my favourite as soon as i meet you... whenever that might be...

seungmin
it might be sooner than you think 😉 anyway, my hyungs calling me so i've got to go but i'll speak to you later beautiful ❤️

kayleigh
soon? when? bye love, message me later okay?

seungmin
of course baby, speak soon!

hey guys! i know these chapters are fairly short but i'm so busy with other stuff 😭
what do we think about the pace of the book so far? i'm trying not to rush it too much since there's going to be loads more action once they actually meet but i also want them to properly get to know each other first yanno?
