Soulmates

(Eric x Reader)

{'Soulmate AU where when you write something on your skin it will show up on your soulmate's skin as well.'}

******************************************

Eric had never met that asshole but he was sure it had to be a giant cosmic joke. How was someone so, immature, childish and just plainly annoying supposed to be his soultmate. Of all the things you'd done until now, this was by far the worst.

He had been standing in front of all the other dauntless leaders and important members, making some announcments when, at first rather quietly, people began to laugh. Most of them had been trying to hold back until he was finished. Eric ended his speech and went to the bathroom, pretty sure you had done something stupid again. You hadn't dissapointed him. When he looked into the mirror there was a dick painted on his forehead.

"You got to be kidding me! Of all the things....that is enough." Eric decided then and there, he was going to find you. He had never cared about finding you but this shit had to end once and for all. He just hoped you were dauntless too or this whole thing would turn out more difficult than anticipated.

It was your free day and you didn't need to go, so you thought why not? Walking around with a dick drawn to your forehead wasn't bad if no one saw you. But the poor guy on the other side was in for a surprise. You really didn't care about that soulmate stuff but you did enjoy to embaress him whenever possible. When you looked at your arm, you noticed something strange. There was something written on it and you were pretty sure it was directed at you. This guy hardly ever drew something on himself except for notes scribbled down when he couldn't find a piece of paper.

"I'm going to find you and believe me you will regret this." You read out loud, "Oh boy, maybe I overdid it this time." You mumbled to yourself. You checked if there was something else visible but you didn't find anything. You were a little worried but after all there was no evidence he was in dauntless as well. Besides he wouldn't draw something stupid on himself just to find you, you knew that much.

When Eric left his apartment the next morning, he drew a 'X' on his throat. Nothing too weird, people wouldn't ask him about it. He went to train the new initiates.

You had left even earlier than Eric. That's why you didn't even see the mark appearing on your throat. You had made sure to check everywhere but you hadn't noticed anything when you left your apartment.

New initiates were coming today and you had been tasked to get new throwing knives and make sure everything was ready for them. When you entered the training ground with everything in hand, you saw Four and Eric already giving their best to scare the new ones for life. You went to store away all the stuff you brought. You were almost done when you felt a hand on your shoulder and turned around. Eric. You wondered what he wanted from you.

"Look who I found." He said with a devilish grin that worried you a bit. You didn't think you had talked to him before or that he even knew who you were.

"Uh, sorry? Is there something you want from me?" You asked him, confused.

"Yes, how about an apology." He said, looking kinda angry now. You really didn't know what you had done to him. He pointed to the 'X' written on his throat. You hoped you were wrong but if you weren't there was big trouble coming your way. You searched the room for a reflection and when you saw the same mark on you, you slowly faced him again a guilty look on your face.

"To be fair, being your soulmate is boring. All you ever do is write down unreadable notes."

"What gives you the right to draw dicks on my forehead when I'm in a meeting?" He yelled at you.

"How am I supposed to know that you're in a meeting!" You yelled back, "Or one of my leaders..." You said more quietly.

"It doesn't matter if I'm in a meeting or not. Don't you ever do that again, girl. This whole thing is entirely stupid, there is no way you're my soulmate."

"I'm not thrilled either."

Four made his way over to you with an annoyed look, "Could you two keep it down, we're still training here."

"SHUT UP!" Both of you yelled back at him. Four looked surprised but left, it was way too early for him to deal with this. You and Eric looked at each other and both of you had to smile a little. Maybe there was a reason for him being your soulmate after all.
