Karl made his way through the snow. The cold fluffiness that would dust his face with a light shade of pink, something he never experienced, yet somehow, in the back of his mind, it did.
Upon walking inside, he went straight to his locker, opening it and grabbing a book for class. This routine seemed embedded into his mind. It was as if he switched his extra terrestrial body with an average teenage boy. In the process, he ended up in this world instead of staying in the mythical one he came from.
'Perhaps it was a dream?'
'But his touch..his soft touch felt so real.' As he stood at his locker, thinking of his beloved, his best friend came up..or the person his mind made up to be his best friend.
His dark brown hair seemed so soft as if he just washed and dried it. His porcelain skin looked so untouched. His posture was high, his body standing straight up.
George Davidson.
The name wasn't new to Karl yet it seemed like it. Just like the way the boy pulled out his hand-held mirror, fixing his lipgloss, giving his lips a shade of cherry red. The boy's priorities consisted of good grades, popularity, and makeup.
Karl must've been lost in thought at how stunning his best friend was..or about his soul mate which he only got to be around briefly. He snaps out of his thoughts as a familiar voice calls out to him.
"Karl? Are you alright?" Karl turned to see George, who had finished his lipgloss and was now holding mascara.
"Sorry..I zoned out. What was it you were talking about?" George's gaze drifted from Karl and back to the hand-held mirror that sat in the palm of his hand as he focused on his lashes, making sure there's just the right amount of mascara.
"I was talking about how there's a new kid coming. Some say he's a delinquent, I don't know him so I don't have a label for him." He continued to focus on his lashes as Karl, quietly, shut the metal door to his locker.
"What's his name?" Maybe this was a sign from the universe that he will be reunited with his lover.
George ponders for a moment, humming as he put his mascara and mirror into his makeup bag that ended up somewhere in his locker. "Nick, I believe, Nick...Ember? No...Oh! Nick Halo." George said with a smile as he grabs his books. "I heard he's in our 4th period."
Karl thinks back to the name. Nick Halo. 'Perhaps this isn't a sign from the universe..and if it is, maybe it doesn't want me to find him.' He leans back against his locker as George shut his.
"Come on, I don't wanna suffer in science by myself." George said with a sigh, causing Karl to let out a small chuckle.

Fourth period rolled around and Karl watched as students piled into the class. He took quick glances at everyone until his eyes landed on one of the last few people to enter class.
He looked exactly like Sapnap.
But what would he say to the guy? 'Hey I'm your soulmate from our original world'? Everyone, including him, would think he was crazy.
He watched as the ravenette walked with a blonde person and the two ended up taking their seats. Instead of there being a lecture today, the teacher decided to give them a free period.
Karl turned towards George who was busy painting his nails. "Hey, who are those two?" He gestures to the blonde and the ravenette, George fixating his gaze on the two guys.
"The blonde's name is Clay, but a lot of people call him Dream, dunno his last name, I don't think anyone does. The other one..I dunno, might be that new guy Nick." He turned back to Karl then decided to finish his nails.
Karl took notice on how the blonde kept sneaking glances towards George. Maybe they were together? "Are you and Clay together?"
George turned back to him, his eyes slightly wide and his face a little red. "U-umm..no Clay and I are not dating. I've liked him since sophomore year though."
Karl smirked slightly then nudged him right as Dream was stealing yet another glance. The blonde and brunette made slight eye contact and George thought he was gonna explode with excitement but kept his calm.
Next thing they know, the ravenette turns around to see Karl. They stare into each other's eyes for a long moment, collecting thoughts and piecing everything together.
"Karl?"
