An AU where your entire life you've only seen black and white. Until you receive the first touch from your soulmate and colour blooms before your eyes. The colors don't stay when you're alone but when they're there by your side and you're touching? Everything is beautiful.

Simon's POV
I was working at my local coffee shop.
About a month ago, this little place that used to be a shopping mart closed down which got turned into a coffee shop.
I now work at this place, working the front counter where people order drinks.
Now I've been told that this coffee shop has tons of colour everywhere which were vibrant.
In this world, when you are born, you can't see any colour other than black, gray and white.
Now when you and your soulmate touch, the world goes colourful.
You can see all these pretty blues, purples, pinks, reds, oranges, yellows and much more.
I'm 19 and i still haven't found mine yet.
I stand at the counter, waiting for the next costumer comes in the door.
I see a small boy walk through the door, hands in his pocket.
"Hello! Welcome to The Brewery. May i get you something?" I ask, cheery voice as always.
"Uh yeah. Can i please have a coffee. 2 milks and 2 sugars please." He smiles.
"Coming right up!" I smile at the boy. He nods and waits there.
I start to make his coffee, glancing at him. He is pretty short, about a head small than me.
He has a cute smile and he is humming a song of some sort.
I finish off the coffee, putting in everything he wanted.
I think for a second before making a heart in the middle.
I hand it to him, seeing his cute smile.
"Thanks." He smirks.
He hands me the money along with a piece of paper with his number on it.
I take out my phone entering his number.
You:- Hope you enjoy your coffee cutie.
I enter, slipping it back into my pocket.
-Next week-
Vikk, the coffee boy, and I have been talking all week long.
I found out that he hasn't met his soulmate yet so we were in the same boat.
I'm in work right now, cleaning up the counter as i see Vikk walk through the door.
"Hey Vikk!" I smile. "Hey Simon!" He cheers.
"The usual?" I ask. He nods and takes out exact change.
I smile and make his coffee the same as always.
"Go sit down. I'll bring it to you." I smile.
He goes and sits at a booth in the corner, taking out his phone.
I finish up his coffee and bring it out to him.
"Here ya go." I say, setting his drink down on the counter.
I turn around and start to walk back to the counter
"Simon?" He calls. "Yeah?" I answer.
"Could we hang out tonight?" He asks, smiling. "Of course. Meet me at the park?" I ask.
"Sure. Bye Simon." He smiles, leaving the empty shop.
I smile to myself, throwing down my apron and running out of the store to my place to get ready.
I put on a thin white tee and a pair of, what i think are, blue jeans.
I walk over to the near by park and sit on the bench, waiting for Vikk of course.
Hands cover my eyes tightly, giggling coming from behind me.
It was day time so i could see some light peak through.
"Guess who!!" His giggly voice says. "Hmm...Vikk!" I exclaim.
"Yeah!" He laughs, taking his hands away from my eyes.
I open my eyes and see...
Green grass?
The red, yellow and blue climber?
The beautiful blue sky?
Wait a second. I gasp and cover my mouth.
"Do you see it?" I say, almost crying. "See what?" He asks, so clueless.
I look over at him, shock over coming me.
"You don't see the colours?" I ask, slightly hurt.
"I'm afraid to say i don't.." He sighs.
I look into his beautiful brown eyes and the way his cinnamon cheeks are slightly red.
"Oh..I do.." I whisper, tears pricking at my eyes.
"I'm sorry..I guess you weren't meant for me." He says, concerning of course.
"Alright...I'm going to go now..Bye." I say, getting up from the soft brownish bench and walking through the green grass.
What just happened?
