Ocean Blue || KaiSoo soulmate!AU

Chapter 1

“I still can't believe I agreed on that."

"Oh, come on, it'll be fun, you'll see!"

The black haired sighs and shakes his head in silent desperation. He is currently sitting inside the Seoul Station, jammed between thousands of people, pressed against his friend next to him. How did he end up agreeing on going to a concert with Jongdae? He gives him a murderous glance that, in return, receives a wide grin. Right. His stupid boyfriend is the one to blame. If Minseok wouldn't be sick, he would be the one being smushed, not Kyungsoo.

Jongdae, seeing Kyungsoo's despair, drops his excited smile.

"Soo, look, I'm sorry for you being processed into marmalade, but it would have been a shame to miss Kai's concert. And better you see it with me than missing it."

Kyungsoo nods in agreement. His friend is right, it would have been a shame to miss this concert indeed regarding the fact that Kim Jongin, aka Kai, is one of the most famous singers of South Korea at the moment. The thing is just that the black haired is absolutely not into pop-music, in fact, there is almost nothing he detests more. But looking at the joy and excitement on his friend's face, he knows what he's doing it for. He may not seem like it, but his friends are the most precious to him.

A couple strikes his attention as they are taking their places nearby, their chests glowing in a pastel pink colour. Ever since he can remember, it has been the most common thing for people's chests to glow brightly when their soulmate is near. It is rarely the case that people would get together, or even marry when it's not their soulmate, some people even viewing non-soulmate relationships as unnatural and against the nature. For Kyungsoo, this whole chest-glowing thing has never been a matter. In his opinion, if people liked or even loved each other, they can do whatever they want as long as it doesn't hurt anybody. Plus, he personally thinks that this whole glowing-thing is totally overrated and disgustingly cheesy.

"Soo, what do you think, should I get Min a-"

But before Jongdae could finish his sentence, the lights shut off slowly and the tension increases by an immeasurable level. Thousands of people start screaming, making Kyungsoo deaf, and he gets up to stand next to Jongdae. His friend is thrilled to bits, raising his phone to send Minseok a picture before returning to screaming, and God, Jongdae has such loud vocals. Kyungsoo smiles silently at this, and even starts cheering himself. The atmosphere is getting him.

The concert starts, Kai appears on stage and performs, and Kyungsoo has to admit that his vocals aren't that bad. He can also dance very impressively, and Kyungsoo catches himself enjoying the concert more and more despite it being his least favourite music genre. The idol has been halfway through his program when he conquers the anterior part of the stage, getting closer to where Jongdae and Kyungsoo are seated, the fans around them going nuts, until they notice- there is something off with the singer. With the lightning. And Kyungsoo notices it, too.

Kim Kai's chest is glowing. Faint pastel blue is shining through his clothes, startling not only the fans but the singer, too. The current song ends and the idol is standing on stage, staring down at his own chest in disbelief. The audience gasps in shock, looking around to find the matching glow, because Kim Kai's soulmate is near and who could be worth being the soulmate of great Kim Kai?

"Whoa", Jongdae exclaims, taking a photo of the idol for Minseok, "you see this, Soo? That doesn't happen often-"

His friend's smile drops as he turns around to Kyungsoo. The black haired frowns, cocking his head a little.

"Dae? Are you okay?"

"Y-yes", Jongdae answers, stuttering. "How about you?"

"Just as fine as before. What is it, why are you so weird suddenly? And why is everyone staring at me, God damn it, mind your own business!"

"B-but, Soo", Jongdae begins, lifting an index finger to point on Kyungsoo. "Your chest is glowing, too."

Kyungsoo's heart drops to his stomach. Slowly, he lowers his head and gasps in shock, the blood leaving his face, making him look like a ghost. Pastel blue is shining through his shirt, brightly and desperately, and he hunches down quickly to cover it.

"Shit!", he exclaims. "Shit shit shit shit! Jongdae, come here!"

His friend lowers to his level, concern written over his face. The people around them start talking, some even screaming loudly for the idol to know that his soulmate is just next to the stage, and Kyungsoo feels a panick attack rising in his chest. His hands start to tremble and his lungs feel too small for all the air he needs.

"You need to get out of here", Jongdae states, noticing how people take photos of his panicking friend. "Take my jacket. Cover your face."

The black haired takes his friend's sweater and quickly pulls the hood over his head. Guided by Jongdae's warm and securing hands, he gets up slowly, hunched over in an attempt to look as if he's about to vomit at everyone in his way. They push their way through the crowd, Jongdae screaming at people from time to time, and as soon as they reach the exit, they start running. Everything feels mushy in Kyungsoo's head, he can't think straight. His heart is beating double the pace, and tears start forming in his eyes. As soon as they reach Jongdae's car, he collapses in the passenger seat, shaken from the decreasing adrenaline, hot tears rolling down his cheeks. His chest feels too tight for his heart and lungs, and he barely gets enough oxygen.

So, the first time Kyungsoo gets to meet his soulmate ends in a panick attack. Sounds good to him.
