AUTHOR'S NOTE:
happy valentine's day, babes!
[modern au]"I could have killed you!"
Those were the words you had emended on your wrist.
You were beyond confused.
Was you soulmate going to almost kill you? Or was your soulmate going to kill you, but then realize that you were their soulmate?
The sentence was borderline confusing.
Either way, you weren't too excited to meet your soulmate.
You didn't want to almost die to meet them. You, also, didn't want them to almost kill you, in the process.
Cassandra's soulmate mark was, "You have toilet paper on the bottom of your shoe."
So, you could count yourself luckier than others.
Rapunzel had already found her soulmate, Eugene. The two encountered each other at the town festival. You wish that you could have a meeting like theirs. One cute and simple.
Yet here you were, sulking at a café with Cassandra.
"I just think that the whole soulmate thing is a little overrated."
From across the table, you throw Cassandra a look. "Are you saying that just cause the first thing your soulmate says is that you have toilet paper on your foot?"
She takes a long sip of her drink. Mumbling a response, "Maybe."
You smile, sighing. "It's Valentine's day tomorrow. Do you know how amazing it would be if you found your soulmate on that day? It'll be like destiny."
Cassandra snickers, "Destiny? More like delusional." Taking a bite of her muffin, she talks. Mouth a little muffled. "Since, when did you care about soulmates? I thought you didn't wanna meet your's yet. You know, with them almost killing you and such?"
"Yeah, but seeing Rapunzel and Eugene together and happy makes me feel extra lonely." You take a long drink from your mug.
Agreeing, Cass nods. "I feel you."
A comforting silence fills the air between you two.
"But, we still are going to buy all those Valentine's Day chocolates that are on sale right?" Cassandra asks.
You chuckle. "Definitely."
Raising a brow, Cass inquires. "The after Valentine's Day sale?"
"Of course." You answer. "That's when the good candy, that no one bought gets brought out."
Cassandra laughs. "See who needs soulmates, when we got each other."
***
Oh, how ironic.
On Valentine's Day, you went to get some early morning drinks. The park you were walking by filled with couples.
You stopped the urge to roll your eyes.
Just averting eye contact and staring straight ahead, was what you did. It seemed to work, when suddenly you felt a tugging on your shoulder.
Looking down you saw a raccoon bite at your bag. Not wanting to hurt the creature, you lightly pulled back your bag.
"Come on, little guy. Let go. I really need my bag back." You softly spoke.
Trying to get the animal to calm down and lay off the bag. It didn't seem to work. The animal only chewing harder.
