I lost myself into his blue eyes, he was my soul mate. It felt like hours we just stood there staring at each other. He leaned forward pressing a kiss against my forehead. When he pulled away the expression on his face turned hard, his eyes averted from my gaze, he pushed past me storming down the corridor.
I was froze to the spot dumbfounded, he had walked away looking angry, mad. Had I done something wrong? I didn’t even know his name, age, I don’t know anything about him.
I headed straight to my dorm ignoring the fact I had classes this afternoon. I led on my bed, my fingers trailing over my forehead where he has kissed, it had just felt right like it was meant to be. I lifted my left wrist up into my view, to see his name.

He’s an amazing dancer; in the year above, bright blue eyes and brown curly hair.
Why did he storm off? I got of my bed and headed to the bathroom to change out of my paint covered clothes. The shower was relaxing and calming, not feeling like dinner I climbed into bed welcoming the darkness that waited.
The next few days, he tried to avoid me like plague, he glared and sent me dirty looks if I was ever near him.
Sighing, I made my way into the lunch hall slumping down at the usual table. Zach and Ava either side of me while the loved up couple sat opposite.
‘What’s wrong Em?’ Zach asked concerned.
‘He doesn’t want me.’ I mumbled dropping my head on to his shoulder.
‘I’m sure does Em, talk to him.’ Zach offered.
‘I have tried but he just avoids me like I’m some form of disease!’ I exclaimed.
‘Try again.’ He replied.
So I did just that, as the bell for lunch went I leant against my locker waiting for him to come past. As he did I grabbed his hand and turned him to face me.
‘What do you want?’ He snapped pulling his hand out of my grip.
‘Why don’t you want me?’ I questioned.
‘Because I don’t like you.’ He sneered.
‘But soul mates are meant to love each other no matter what.’ I whispered.
He leaned closer to me, making my breath hitch.
He chuckled at my reaction before speaking his lips brushing against my ear as he spoke every word.
‘Well I guess we aren’t soul mates then.’ He pulled back and turned walking away.
The bell for beginning of class rang, I had Mrs Adams. Ignoring my odd tear, I ran to the studios.
‘I’m sorry!’ I shouted as I reached the door.
‘Miss Morgan, late again I see.’ She scolded.
‘Well continuing on with what I was saying, as the cast list will be up this time next week, today we are going to perform a dance that will be in the show.’ Mrs Adams announced.
We all got in to rows and watched as she showed us the routine. We copied and then danced to the music that accompanied the dance, my head was everywhere trying to think of all the reasons why my soul mate wouldn’t want me or like me.
‘Miss Morgan concentrate!’ Mrs Adams ordered as I crashed into somebody.
‘Sorry.’ I mumbled trying to get into the right timing.
I continued to mess up stepping on people’s toes or colliding with them, my head spinning as I began to feel sick. I broke through the crowd and left the lesson. God what is wrong with me, I sat on the field taking deep breaths trying to get my breathing rate back to normal.
The cold airs whipped around me, making the hairs on my arms stand up on end. Stupid soul mate crap, if only I didn’t have one. I guess I’m going to have to move on without him and live alone.
A/N: So sorry it's really short! It's my birthday on Friday :) which should be alright then i'm going to summertime ball on sunday so I will try upload a few more times this week
