If you get the song references in this chapter then that's cool.

Aphmau/Aaron's POV

Italic: Aphmau
Underlined: Aaron

The box drops to the floor as I stand there in shock.

No...it..can't be...

Suddenly, the goddamn string appears, and the other end is connected to Aaron.

Tears start to form in my eyes.

We can't be soulmates...after he left me for all those years? What would make me and him soulmates...?

She drops a box she was holding and it fell onto the ground, leaving her just staring at me in shock.

Could this be real? Is this a dream? Irene, please tell me it's a dream. She probably hates me after leaving her for all those years, oh god, what do I do?! She's my goddamn neighbour and-

The string appears.

The other end connects to Aphmau.

We're soulmates.

That just makes it worse...shit.

She hates me, she's my next door neighbour and we're soulmates.

I still love her with all my heart, I really do, but how much do you want to bet she doesn't even like me with one bit of her heart.

Screw life. Screw Irene. Screw that goddamn string. Screw him!

I hate him...so much...

Why would Irene pair me with someone who doesn't even give a shit about their friends?

Well, I do suppose that she could've paired us before we were even born, and-

N-nevermind.

My point is I hate him. With all my heart.

But I still care for him...somehow.

I'm a wreck right now.

What the heck is wrong with me?

But really, my real question is, is that if he still loves me. Does he still like me like he did back when we were kids?

My mother told me stories as a kid, about a Princess, who would always be the: "Damsel In Distress" , then getting saved by her "Prince Charming" .  And they would live, "Happily Ever After". But that's how always ended. In all those stories...it ended the same way. As if they were meant to be together.

As if their love was meant to last for infinity.

Did me and Aaron's? I don't think so.

Reality is different from Fairy Tails, as there's no such thing as a "Happy Ending" . Happily Ever Afters are fake. No story ends happy.

Cause every love story either ends up with someone or both getting hurt, death, or both.

So why think that me and Aaron's will end well? Well, if it didn't already end.

It hurts just thinking it...

Stop it Aphmau, stop thinking negatively!

He still loves you! He doesn't hate you! He'd never hate you! He told you that!

But...did he ever mean it...?

Was he just feeding me lies this entire time..?

"NO!" I yell, holding my head in frustration, earning startled reactions  from everyone.
