PROMPT: you knew soulmates were real but ruel wanted to make the string magic lives on

As you scrolled through Instagram you somehow found yourself on a facts page. You didn't know if any of these were true but you somehow hoped for the best. Ruel on the other hand was on the other side of the couch, watching the tv as he played with the hem of your jeans.

'Ruel, do you know anything about the red string on the pinky.' You asked him curiously, wondering if he knew what you were talking about. Ruel paused the tv as his face scrunched up in confusion before shaking his head. 'Nope, not a single clue.' He responded as he focused on you. 'Well..it's a legend that when two people are destined to be together are attached by an invisible red string from the thumb to the other persons pinky. The thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of the time, place or circumstances. The thread may stretch or tangle but will never break.' You read out from your phone.

Looking back at ruel, he gave off an amused look before busting out laughing. 'I can't help it but that's kinda funny.' A pout formed on your lips as you reread the words in front of you, thinking it was the cutest thing in the world. 'I wish it was true. It would be cute if we had thread that connects from your thumb to my pinky.' Ruel saw how much you liked the idea from the look on your face, and so an idea popped into his head.

'Ruel, I'm getting sleepy.' You mumbled out as you set your phone down on the coffee table in front of you. Ruel patted his lap, and you crawled your end of the couch to his and laid your head on his lap. He ran his fingers through you hair as he waited for you to into a deep slumber. After a half an hour later he gently picked up your head and placed a pillow down underneath it.

Making his way towards your shared bedroom, he walked towards your desk. He looked inside each drawer for a specific little thing that would help him immensely. 'A ha. There it is.' He said in great joy as he grabbed the roll of red sewing thread. He stuffed the roll into the front pocket of his jeans as he left the room.

He made his way towards your sleeping silhouette that laid peacefully on the couch. Crouching down next to your body, he grabbed the roll and broke of a long piece wrapping one end around his left thumb securely. He turned towards you and grabbed your right hand gently and slowly not wanting to wake you up. He grabbed the other end of the string and started to wrap it around your pinky.

Your eyes fluttered open as you felt the thread wrap around your finger. You saw ruel crouching right next to you, wrapping a red string around your pinky. 'What are you doing.' You asked as you watched him look up at you with a smile. 'Showing that were destined to be together, my love.' He replied before he placed a small kiss on your lips.
