Soulmates- A Short Story

Soulmates

Emma P.O.V

I looked up at the man's eyes happy but still colorless, I chocked back a sob and ran out of the restaurant not stopping till I reached my car.

My first thought after I climbed in was I'm never going to find my soulmate at this rate. I turned on the car and went back to the apartment I shared with my best friend Ally. I searched in my bag for my key, I let out a groan I had forgot my key once again.

I started pounding on the door. Inside I heard shuffling as Ally made her way to the door "Who is it?" she called as she headed to open the door.

When she saw my face she looked at me with hopeful eyes. I shook my head and felt the tears roll down my face. Ally wrapped me in a tight hug and whispered comforts in my ear.

"Don't worry hes out there somewhere" this statement made me cry harder. When I finally had no tears left to cry she let me go.

Tired and disappointed I finally spoke " I'm going to shower and go to bed it's been a long day". Ally nodded and let me pass.

After I reached my room I closed the door and locked it. I leaned against my door and sunk to the floor crying again. After regaining myself I looked at my phone 3 missed calls all from my blind date. I let out a shaky breath and listened to the voicemail

"hey sorry about tonight I thought this would work I thought I saw color with you but it turned out it was the girl behind you im really sorry I wish you luck bye "

I let out a sob and got up to go shower I sobbed all the way through when I got up I put on a comfy shirt and spandex. I curled up on my bed with my favorite book and tried to relax myself but it didn't work after five minutes I felt the tears creeping up again, I made the executive decision to go to sleep which surprisingly worked as soon as I shut my eyes I drifted off to sleep.

I watched as the girl ran out the restaurant in a rush from my place at the bar. I watched the guy look longingly then his vision snap back to a pretty girl sauntering towards him. Ah they're soulmates. I smiled at the thought and went back to my phone I saw a message.

Ex

Ex
Hey baby

Please leave me
alone we already
figured out we're
not soulmates

Ex
I know but I
still miss you

Well I don't miss you

Ex
Why

First off after a few
weeks I realized you
we're lying to me and
not soulmates second
off you cheated on me
with my best friend

Ex
Baby it was all
a mistake

Well I'm done so
stop texting me
before I block you

I sighed as I set my phone down she just could not let go. She said that eventually see color it takes a while, which was a load of bull. After dating for three years I still couldn't see color and then I found out she had cheated on me. Not to mention it was with my ex- best friend.

After sitting there for a few more minutes I checked the time 10:05, Luke's probably wondering where I am and probably texting his soulmate.
