Midoriya's Pov~

      I can't believe it, fifteen minutes to go on my timer! That's on my morning coffee run. I just can't meet my soulmate while caffeine deprived! Well it wouldn't be so bad if not for the fact that this coffee shop is terrible! It was the only one in my town though and even if it's bad it was worse than nothing. Usually I'd make my own coffee except I was unfortunately out of coffee beans. But my timer... I don't hurry through my morning routine, trying to delay enough to avoid meeting my soulmate at the coffee shop but of course it doesn't work. You can't slow down the clock after all.

      I get into line, three more minutes. The smell of strong coffee is overwhelming in here. Maybe the line would move fast enough so that I could meet my soulmate outside of this coffee shop instead of inside of it.

      Wishful thinking, two more minutes left, clearly that wasn't happening. I don't even know why I bothered hoping. The line was going so slow. That alone led me to believe that the service was terrible and the smell of the coffee alone made me think it was terrible.

      Thirty seconds left. You know, so many people would be excited about their timer getting this close to zero all I was feeling at this point was a pit of nervousness opening up in my stomach.
"I hate this place so much.." I muttered to myself and sighed, "I need my coffee though."

      With five seconds remaining I look around, trying to spot anyone else in the shop who looks as nervous as me. No luck.

    Four seconds, now I'm near the front of the line and my anxiousness is only building. It's odd to think that someone in this coffee shop is my soulmate and I'm only seconds away from meeting them. For all I know my soulmate could be the one about to take my order for this horrid coffee. There's only one person in front of me now.

      Three seconds. I'm just hoping this first interaction won't be awkward. My soulmate won't just waltz in while I'm ordering right? God that could be embarrassing..

      Two seconds. It won't be much longer now, the guy in front of me is ordering. He's probably trying to decide which coffee here is the least terrible today. I wonder if he's having much luck with that. I look down at my timer and suck in a breath. I don't let it out in anticipation.

      One more second, the moment of truth. I tap my foot and glance around to try and figure out who it is before the timer goes off. There's a part of me that wants to run but for all I know I'll just slam into my soulmate the moment I turn around. Who could they be? My train of thought gets cut off as my timer goes off in sync with someone else's and I look forward as the one in front of me turns around and lock eyes with a pair of Heterochromia eyes, one is turquoise and the other is grey. They honestly take my breath away for a moment and I snap out of it once I hear him speak.

"Well.. maybe we should step out of line then uh.. soulmate?" He said the last word a little awkwardly. We've successfully caught the attention of most of the people in the store and there is a background noise of clapping and cheering. It is a big deal to meet your soulmate after all. But I can't find it in myself to pay attention to all of that. My attention s focused into him and I mutely nod in response to his question before I follow him out.

"Izuku Midoriya" I introduce myself with a warm smile which he returns but it's substantially smaller than mine though it doesn't hold a lesser amount of emotion.

"Shoto Todoroki. I wasn't expecting to meet you in arguably the worst coffee shop in the world but so be it" The bicolor haired male said and laughed a bit and I couldn't help but laugh with him. We've barely even said anything to each other but I already feel so close to him, is that weird?

Whoop here we are! This chapter was written by my friend KiraT144 with a few small tweaks and add ons by me. I hope you all enjoyed and stay tuned for the following chapters. I'm hoping that at least one can be made every week. :)

Love you all! Have a lovely day/night! <3
