Soulmates (Jyrus)

Chapter 4

^ I still can't believe Disney did that...like I'm never getting over it.

Jonah's Pov:

After that kiss with Cyrus, I ran out the door and into Andi's front yard. I stood there breathing in some fresh air. My heart was still pounding in my chest. Was it normal to like a kiss that much? My head felt heavy with thoughts. I thought I had liked Andi, but after that kiss I knew that wasn't true. Earlier at the party a part of me felt jealous seeing Cyrus talking to another guy. I got this weird pit in my stomach. It just felt weird that I could possibly like a guy.

My legs began to carry me away from the house. I didn't know where I was going but I just kept walking on the side walk. All of the sudden I felt a strange feeling on my hipbone. I lifted up my shirt to see what caused it. The letters C.G. appeared on my skin.

Cyrus Goodman

I walked all the way home processing the fact that I had found my soulmate. A part of me was happy but another part was scared. Scared of the fact that my soulmate was a boy and not just any boy...my best guy friend.

As I entered the door into my house I was stopped by my mom.
"You're home early. How was the party?" She asked me. In response I said "I was just feeling tired, but it was fun." My mom didn't seem to fully believe me but she just nodded. I then headed upstairs and entered my bedroom. I plopped down on my bed. I grabbed my phone and decided to text the one person I really needed to talk to.

Jonah: Hey Cy! We really need to talk...meet me @ the spoon tomr.

Cyrus: Ya fo sho jo! How's noon?

I rolled my eyes and laughed at how Cyrus was trying to sound cool. I quickly responded that noon would work and then set my phone down. I think I felt excited to get one on one time with him tomorrow. Maybe just maybe I was happy that Cyrus Goodman was  my soulmate.

Cyrus' Pov:

It was currently 11:30 and I was meeting up with Jonah at 12. He wanted to talk and I could only guess it was about the kiss. Had he got his mark yet? I looked in the mirror checking how I looked. I may sound like a girl but I still wanted to look good for him. The time was quickly reaching noon, so I made my way to the spoon.

I took my time arriving there as my nerves began to fill me up. I looked at my phone which showed I was 5 minutes late. As I went through the door, a bell chimed indicating I was walking through. I looked around until my eyes locked with Jonah's. He slightly smiled and waved me over. I timidly walked over and squeezed in the booth sitting directly across from him. "Are you okay Jo...you ran out very quickly after you know what happened." I said my eyes casting down to the table. I felt his eyes staring directly at me. "Yeah sorry about that Cy I guess I just had to clear my head" he said. As he said those words my head lifted up to make eye contact with him.

"If I'm honest I was thinking you hated me until you texted" I said quietly. Jonah reached to grab my hands that were playing with each other on the table. "Cyrus I could never hate you" he said with sympathy laced in his tone. "I actually um...well there's something that happened last night." Jonah stumble over his words. I looked at his hands that were still on top of mine. He cleared his throat and slowly got up. Then he grabbed my hand leading me outside of the spoon. When we were outside we began walking and he said" I think it's better if we walk and talk. You know just so it's the two of us." I smiled and nodded at those words. Just the two of us sounds like a phrase I wanna get used to.

"I think I might know what you wanna talk about" I spoke up. We stopped in place. His hand let go of mine and then he slightly lifted up a part of his shirt. My breath hitched in the back of my throat. I looked at those two little initials that belonged to me. "It showed up last night" Jonah said. I then lifted up my shirt to show him the mark that appeared on me. "Me too" I responded. Jonahs hand reaches over and his fingers traced over his initials. His cold finger made chills run down my spine. He then quickly pulled it away a puzzled look across his face.

Jonahs head was shaking. Then his next words tugged at my heart. "I don't think I can do this." Jonah then began to walk away but I grabbed his wrist. "Jonah you cant ignore the fact that we're soulmates" I whispered. He slid his wrist out of my grip. With a saddened look in his eyes he said "I'm sorry." Then walked away. I stood there confused as ever. I felt stuck to the spot I was standing in. It felt like my heart had sunk to the bottom of my chest.

My soulmate doesn't want me.
