I was going around the library for a book. I don't really read a lot but I do enjoy books. It's helps me calm down a lot but usually the books I've  read have a similar endings. I came across this one book. "Soulmates" I said in my head. I grabbed the book and walk over to my favorite spot. I open the book and began reading.

Soulmates are believed that their souls were connected in the heavens. They made a promise to meet again on planet earth. To learn, to grow, to live, and mostly importantly to Love. Not just eachother but themselves too. Soulmates are just souls that missed the feeling of being touched by the hand or any type of contact...

I stopped reading and started to wonder. I am a person who never felt that way. I want to feel it. I want to have butterflies in my stomach. I want to smile when I hear the persons name. I want to be able to get shy around that person. I don't care what gender they are. I want to give love romantically too. I just want to feel that way for once. Maybe I can't feel that for other people because my soulmate is here in this world. Now that I think about it, It is really stupid. I decided to check out the book from the library and headed straight to my locker. On the way there I ran into Aoyama but I ignored him. I was in a rush to get to my locker before school started. I had so much in my mind that I didn't even notice that I passed my locker. I mentally sighed and started walking back. I kept on thinking about the book and the introduction. It felt like it meant something to me... something special about it. Then I remember.

~Flashback~
I was packing up the equipment from soccer practice. It was just me and my coach. While picking up the equipment I saw a old couple walking by and I heard there conversation.
"We are soulmates that came from the heavens. I'm glad I found you. I feel like our souls were meant for eachother." The old lady said.
"Me too. I'm glad I got to see you, hold you, kiss you, touch you. I hope we see eachother in heaven." The old man said while putting his head against hers.
After there conversation I went back to my coach and looked at her.
"Coach Star do you believe in soulmates?" I asked like a little girl would.
"Yes I do."she replied and look at me curiously. "Why?"
"Well I heard an old couple talking about it." "What's a soulmate?"
She looked at me and awed because I looked so innocent.
"Well a soulmate is someone you keep with forever by your side. Someone who accepts the good and bad of you. Someone who know you better then anyone in this world. They inspire you to do better. They will love you no matter what . Someone who will always believe in you even if no one else would. Someone you'll love and that love will never change." She said.
"Will I ever find my soulmate Coach Star." My eyes lit up while looking at her. She look at me and giggled because of how I was being cute about the topic. "(Y/n) yes you'll eventually find your soulmate and when you do I hope I'm there to see." "Don't tell me you are interested in someone?" She asked me teasingly "Ehh!?!" My eyes became wide and she started to laugh. "Calm down I'm only teasing but in all seriousness right now you are very young. Don't get caught up on someone. First love yourself for who you are."
"Ok Coach I will for you!" I say happily. "Okay let's finish up" She said with a smile.

~Flashback end~

I sigh and looked at the book. I miss her so much. She was the only one who made me want to follow her steps. She's gone now. Her body isn't walking around earth but in the heavens. I got to class to see Aoyama cleaning my desk. I looked around to see the other students looking at him. I walked up to him and saw a stain on my table.

"Oh, Hey someone spilled juice on your table so I decided to clean it before it got all sticky." Aoyama said and continued taking off the stain.
"Oh, Thank you but I could've just cleaned it myself you know."
"Yeah but I'm trying to be nice here ok." He looked at me and walked back to his desk. I sat down and took out the book and started reading.

Chapter one
Feeling

I was walking around a park and I spotted a kid sitting alone with a little bit of money in his hand. He look sad until I noticed the ice cream man. I thought that the kid didn't have enough money for the ice cream he wanted. I walked up the the little boy.
"Hey there are you ok?"
"No I don't have enough money for the ice cream I wanted."
"What kind of ice cream did you want?"
"The chocolate chip cup" The little boy said.
He looked down so I checked my bag to find a dollar so I can give him.
"Hey want see a magic trick?"
"Yeah!"
"First I need your dollar ok."
"Ok!" He gave me the dollar and I smiled.
"Now close your eyes and count to 20 ok." I said to him
"1"
"2"
"3"
"4"
I started walking to the man with ice cream and ordered the ice cream the kid wanted. I kept checking on him, he wasn't to far from the man. He gave me the ice cream and I gave him the money. I started walking back to the boy with the ice cream laid out on my hands.
"19"
"20"
The little boy opened his eyes to see me smiling at him with the ice cream he wanted. He smiled widely and hugged me. I hugged him back and gave him the ice cream. He opened it and started eating it. "Thank you pretty lady!" He said.
"You're the best!"
I laughed and I heard a man screaming. Not for help but for someone. Thats when the boy got up and ran to the man with arms spread out for a hug.
"Hey little buddy what do you have here?" The man asked.
"Oh that pretty lady over there is a magician, she got it for me. She's so cool!" The little boy said to him while pointing at me. The man looks up to see who. Thats when it happened. That feeling when you see someone beautiful. The feeling when you want to have them by your side. Forever. Like if two souls were connected.

"Hey are you there?" I stop focusing on the book and look up to see Aoyama poking me. "Hey lunch started let's go." I put the book away and started to gather up my stuff. I started walking up to my favorite spot. I put my lunch down and one of my teammates came up to me. "Hey can I sit with you?" She asked me so I just nodded. The girls name was Litzy. She is a defender on our team and she is a really good player. "So how have you been?"
"Good I guess, I just got into a book."
"Oh really what's it called?"
"It's called "Soulmates" it's a really good book"
Later we kept on talking about books and other stuff. She was a fun person to talk to and I really enjoyed it for once. We eventually got into a deep topic. I feel like I can get close with her but I still have to keep my guard up. After that the rest of the day was boring. Me and Aoyama went to the library to study for a test.
"Hey Aoyama."
He looked at me and nodded to let me know I have his attention.
"Do you believe in soulmates?"
He looked at me and then looked back to his book.
"Well I never really felt that way about someone but my mom will tell me that there is someone out there for me."
"Have you ever had a crush on someone?" I asked him and it got silent.
"Well yes but it was really nothing."
It took me by surprise. He isn't the type of person to have a crush. Especially how he acts... he is always quiet and doesn't open up easily. So I was surprised and asked out of no where.
"Really when?"
"Oh wait you don't have to answer."
He smirked and said.
"Middle school. She was sort of popular but she would bully me." "I thought we had something but then she just started to hate me."
"Oh sorry I didn't mean to asked that"
"It's ok, do you believe in soulmates?" He questioned me.
"Well yes but I never really felt that away with anyone." "My old coa-" I stopped myself and look down. I never told Aoyama about my past. "Well someone always told me that soulmates exist"
He look at me curiously and I put on a smile.
"That person said I'll eventually find them"
I look out the window and went back to studying.

~Aoyama's POV~
She looked beautiful while looking out of the window. I know she hasn't opened up to anyone but I hope one day she will. I feel normal when I'm with her. I don't like her in that way but she gives me the feeling of comfort. She is always there for me. I don't really show emotion when I'm around others but with her I'm show her a little. I don't understand why no one has fallen for her. I wish that girls would leave me be. I get tired of being looked at. At least I have (Y/n). She makes me enjoy
things that I thought I would never like studying. I hope things get better for her.
