Color

A world where we know our soulmates by color.
Life is grey, the color faded into a diluted pigment. When you meet them, you will see their eyes first. Hair. Skin. So on and so forth. Then the world lights up. Life is real.

But I don't see any color yet.
I've always wanted my mate to be male. I guess I can't change it if their female, but I'm too gay. My friends have either found them, or have a crush. Crushes are weird. You see a splash of color, but it's not in the eyes first. You're attracted, but not in love. The world lightens but it isn't bright. I've never had one.
Macy, my best friend. People used to think we must have been soulmates, but we're not. Actually She has a boyfriend now, their cute together. The rest of our friends have someone that their in a relationship with. I'm still alone.
At least I think.

On the way back from Geology, I stop at my locker to pick up some supplies for art. After I opened my locker, a small paper came out. It read:
Hey,
I saw you earlier. My eyes changed. I could see the color. Maybe you're the one? I'm scared you will not want to admit it, I'm not what you want. Have you seen me yet? I doubt it, no one does. Text me? If not it's fine,
See ya soulmate!

Her-is it a her? Number was at the bottom. I glance around the hall, it's emptying now. Grabbing the note, I rush off to my next class. Art was always fun, but i couldn't focus. The note had my attention. All I could think about was that number.
As the teacher turned his back, I took out my phone and typed in the number. The contacts' name was "Ghosty" now.

Me: Hey

Shivers were sent down my spine when I hit send. 10 minutes passed without a response, I gave up. I forced my attention back to the face I was desperately trying to make look real.

Ghosty: Hey, u him?
Me: Yea
Ghosty: Wow, gotta name?
Me: John
Ghosty: Nice
Me: What class r u in rn?
Ghosty: Biology, boring
Me: Can you get out?
Ghosty: Sure, where?
Me: Parking lot
Ghosty: I'll be there in 5
Me: K

I was going to meet them. Really meet my mate. Now I can see if fate is in my favor, maybe it's a guy? My stomach does a backflip-somersault-quadruple-flip.
I lift my hand.

"Sir, May I use the restroom?"
The teacher doesn't look happy, but complied and I high tail out of class.
The walk to the parking lot seemed to last for years. When I got there, I was early.

Me: where r u?
Ghosty: on my way
Me: I'm by the tree
Ghosty: be right there

I blush, scared out of my skin.
I let myself sink into the old oak tree, facing so I can't see the school door.
Suddenly I feel sick, my nerves are jumping. I think I could pass out.
The sound of the door to the school closing pushes me back to reality.
I can hear heavy footsteps coming over to me.

"Hey, uh," I hear his voice. That's right. His. I could tell it was a guy, happiness spread through me.
"John, hi?"
I turn around. He was skinny, a black MCR hoodie with ripped skinny jeans paired with sneakers. His hair was shaggy, it partially covered his eyes. His beautiful eyes. The colors came quickly, bright blue eyes. His freckles were like Stars at night. His hair was dark brown.
I realized I was staring

"Hello?" He asked
"Wow" I muttered underneath my breath
"H-hey Ghosty" I say, tripping over my words.
"Hey" he smiles at me, my face goes red.

"Uhh wanna sit?" I pat the spot next to me and he sits.
"So we're soulmates" I say in wonder.
"Yea...um is it weird to want to-"
He stoped short of his sentence as I curled my hands around his, intertwining our fingers.
He blushed. So cute~
"O-oh uh sorry" I began to pull my hand back. He tightens his grip, pulling me closer.
"No it's fine, actually i wanted to do this"
He took his free hand and brushed my cheek, pulling my chin towards him.
Our lips locked. There was a moment of shock, but we settled in.
His lips were soft, Delicate, beautiful.
I knew it now.
I had found my soulmate.
I'm in love.

Hey guys! Thanks for reading!!!!! I really like one shots, so I decided to write my own.
I'd love to get some recommendations, sometimes I can't think of stuff. I don't mind writing just fluff, or writing more smut kind of stuff. I don't really care tbh. Gay/lesbian stuff is easier for me to write personally but I'll do whatever. If ya have a ship from a fandom or something I'll be happy to try! So yea, that's it.
Hope you liked it!!
