Anika POV!
I woke with a start. Glancing down at my hand I saw the infamous red thread wrapped around my ring finger and leading somewhere out the window. It didn't feel as heavy as everyone described, maybe they were just being dramatic.
As I was getting ready for the morning I had two thoughts on my mind.
How lucky I was! My sister hadn't had a string when she awoke 3 years ago and it haunted me to this day that a similar fate awaited me.
How Brittany and her little cult she had formed in freshman year would find someway to torment me. However I did have a crush on Brittany since we met, but I was straight. Straight crush. Yep. It was miserable, since Anika was an artist wanna be with no actual friends outside of the ones in books she was a pretty big target for the queen bee of junior year.
As I headed out the door letting daydreams of the boy I was meant to be with fill my mind I noticed the string getting lighter and lighter.
Brittany POV!
My alarm rang in my ears but I'd been awake for hours. Trying to figure out what the lack of weight coming from my newly earned string meant. I'd come to the conclusion that my soulmate had to live near me. Maybe even at my school. Which was insane... like which girl at my school could possibly be worthy of mE?
Anika was pretty cute thought with her button nose and icicle blue eyes.
NO ANIKA WAS A PATHETIC WIMP NOT A POTENTIAL SUITOR.
(quick a/n, I literally can't stop thinking of Chansaw as I write this)
I got ready for school, crop top and ripped shorts even though it was only 40 degrees outside. But you know you gotta give when everyone expects.
As I put my white-blonde hair in french braids and did my makeup with my iconic blue lip gloss I let my mind wonder and before I knew it it was on Anika.
AGAIN
THAT GIRL MUST BE A WITCH OR SOMETHING PUTTING A CURSE ON ME TO LOVE HER UNCONDITIONALY UGHHH
Finally I jumped in my car and as I drove towards my highschool felt the weight pulling my finger get lighter.
Anika POV
I got to school late and stumbled into my homeroom seconds before the tardy bell rang. Since I was an extreme theater and arts before I bowed and yelled. "Scene."
But no one reacted.
They were all staring at me.
At my finger.
OMG
Brittany POV
I heard Anika run in and yell but I didn't even look up from my phone I was so used to it at this point.
Until she shrieked.
As soon as I saw what she was shrieking about I joined her.
OUR STRING WERE CONNECTED!
I was the first to stop. I bit down on my lip, slightly smudging my navy blue lipstick trying to stop the tears from ruining my mascara but it was pointless.
The girl I was in love with all along was my soulmate.
Anika POV
I stopped screaming when Brittany did.
I couldn't believe it.
Of course I loved her
I always had
But did she love me back?
She got up and ran towards me crashing into my grabbing my hand and kissing me.
I guess that answers my question.
I kissed back. Like I'd wanted to for years. Her lipstick tasted like blueberries and she kissed me like she had been waiting as long as I had.
We pulled apart tears running down both our faces as we held up our new engagement rings ,that formed when we kissed, to the class who responded in applause.
I looked over at the love of my life and screamed, "I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART BRITTANY CADE."
"I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART ANIKA JONIE."
