It was currently three forty-five am, and a certain Mell was awake.
The boy had awoken to his dog, Pac, scratching at his door, wanting to be let in. Michael begrudgingly unrolled himself from his comfy burrito, and walked over to his door to let his favorite puppy in.

Pac took a running start to Michael's bed, leaping into the air and landing safely on the mess of blankets, pillows, and a Pac-man plushy.

His owner got back into his bed, only wide-awake now. He picked up his phone from his nightstand, turning it on and squinting as he tried to check the time.

With a groan, he tossed his phone on his bed and rubbed his eyes. He knew he was not going back to sleep anytime soon.

He debated on calling Brooke, knowing the girl sometimes stayed up all night. He decided not to, choosing to save himself from the rant about " How Chloe was so utterly stupid to not see how great of a soulmate I would be".

Soulmate.

Wait.

Wait one fucking minute.

Michael picked up his phone again, ignoring the time and looking at the date.

Motherfucker.

It was Michael's birthday.

He would be getting a soulmate today.
A wave of fear washed over him.

Only because Michael knew he was born early in the morning, as his mother told him. She said that his other mother had to deal with her screaming for coffee.

Michael hugged himself, Pac curling up against him, making him feel warmer.
He kept checking the time, anxious of when the mark would appear.

While waiting, he could hear one of his mothers walking around the house, no doubt the one who birthed him. She always got up early, and besides, it was his birthday.

He realized she would be expecting Jeremy to come over today, to celebrate her only child's special day.

He knew he was going to have to explain to her about him, he just did not want it to be this soon.

Michael quickly formed a list of people he would invite over instead, making up for Jeremy.

Brooke, Connor, Christine, and Dustin.
Perfect, that'll have to do.

He knew Brooke would come, and Dustin. Connor might have plans today, plans meaning getting high or doing his daily routine of yelling at his sister.
Christine had Drama after class, but depending on how much they needed her, there was a strong possibility she would come.

Despite it being very early, he created a group chat with the name of ' Werdio Club'.

He added Brooke, Christine, Connor, and Dustin.
