Humans have soulmates.

One touch and a bruise will mark them as bonded. They begin to need each other for energy to survive.

You bond with Jungkook by touching his hand in the crowd.

If soulmates touch, they will both be marked with a bruise on their bodies wherever they first touched each other physically.

If you don't find whoever you bonded with in time... you die.
If you can't stay together to give each other energy... you die.

A universe in which you bond with Jeon Jungkook by touching his hand at a concert.

That was the full package of soulmate bonding. You touch, you bruise, and then you needed to scramble to find each other because touching the other person was now mandatory, it now was sustenance for survival.

But that's if the soulmates found each other.

The ones that didn't...

weakened

and died

exactly as a person would when deprived of food.

There were so, so many.

People perfectly fine and happy one day

and then the next day torn from their lives

to search frantically for the other half

they now needed.

Three-quarters manage to.

They live.

One quarter failed to meet in time.

They died.





Unbidden, the image of the BTS concert slid through your mind.

How you had laughed, jumped up and down, waved your light stick and screamed yourself hoarse.

You had reached up at Bangtan as they walked around the stage,
