another soulmate au for all you suckers that love them (me too). where you turn 18 you have a red string that connects to your soulmate. you can only see the string if you're both 18 or older. so if you're 18, and your soulmate is like 17, you won't see it. only you and your soulmate can see the string. and when you kiss them, the string goes away and turns into your favorite type of jewelry.

"micha, i'm nervous. i'm gonna turn eighteen tomorrow. what if i don't have a soulmate? i mean you said you don't have a string either. what if we'll both be soulmate-less." jeremy spiraled, as we were taking a break from video games at my house.

"jeremy, you're fine. you're obviously gonna have a soulmate. who wouldn't want to date you? as for me, my soulmate could just not be 18 yet." i reply calmly. truthfully, i was freaking out. what if i didn't have a soulmate. what if jeremy wasn't my soulmate? that's pretty likely. i do love him but he is definitely not my soulmate.

"you're right. i just need to wait till tomorrow. and even if i don't have a soulmate, we still have each other." he replied, poking my side. i laughed and punched his shoulder playfully.

jeremy took out his phone and checked the time. "shit, i need to get home. see ya later, mikey."

we said our goodbyes and he walked home. we don't live that far away.

i groaned as the annoying beep of my alarm woke me from my dream. i got out of bed and something red got my eye.

red?

wait.

i lifted my right hand and saw a red string, leading out of my bedroom door. i gasped and quickly got my phone from the nightstand.

jerry💙: DUDE I GOT A STRING

mikey❤️: ME TOO!!!!

mikey❤️: tell me when you find them

jerry💙: will do, see you later

mikey❤️: see ya

i quickly got dressed and put my phone in my back pocket and ran out the door. it was saturday and i woke up at around 10am so i wasn't worried about school.

i kept following the string until it lead me to the park michael and i used to go to when we were little. i smile at the memories, i was completely helpless for the retro loving nerd. i really hoped he was my soulmate.

the string continued to lead me to the giant water fountain in the middle of the park. i stopped as i saw the person my string was attached to.

michael mell in the flesh was standing there, facing away from me, watching the water fountain in the middle. he was seemingly memorized by its watery beauty. (why the fuck am i writing about how beautiful a fountain is?)

i decided to be cheesy as hell and call michael. he was about 100 feet away, so he wouldn't hear me.

it rung twice before i saw him look at his phone and put it to his ear in the distance.

"found him." i say, smirking.

"wait, jer? you found your soulmate? i still haven't found mine, but who's yours?" michael asked.

"turn around, dumbass."

michael turned around and immediately saw the red string connecting us by our wrists. (it doesn't hurt) our eyes met and he started smiling that adorable smile i fell in love with.

"i'm gonna have to call you back. my adorable soulmate just got heere." michael joked.

"alright, my amazing, caring and absolutely beautiful soulmate just got heere too." i chuckle.

we both hung up and out our phones in our pockets.

we just stared at each other for a while until i couldn't take it anymore and i started booking it towards him.

michael started doing the same and once we met in the middle, he picked up by the waist and hugged the life out of me. michael twirled me around and set me down.

"i love you so much, jerebear." michael laughed, out of breath from running.

"i love you too, mike." i hugged him again.

"i can't believe you're my soulmate." the filipino exclaims.

"we were meant to be, and the world knows it." i say.

"soooo...." michael dragged out the 'o', "since we're soulmates, would you maybe consider being my boyf riend?" he asked, uneasy.

"mimi, look at me." i cupped his face. "you would have to be an absolute idiot to think i would not be your boyf riend. so, fuck yes, i will be your boyf if you be my riends."

"deal." michael chuckled.

i leaned in and connected our lips, getting no objection from michael. as we pulled away, our string turned into bracelets around each of our wrists. mine had blue gems around it and said "player 2", and michaels had red gems and said "player one". i laughed at how cute it was.

"well, player 2, wanna go play video games?" michael asked. i shook my head 'no'. michaels face turned confused.

"instead of video games, i wanna cuddle." i said.

"well, that's an even better plan." michael laughed. without warning, michael scooped me up bridal style and started walking back to his house. i squeaked at the sudden action.

"i can walk, ya know." i said.

"i know." michael muttered, leaning down and kissing my nose. my nose scrunched up at the contact and i blushed.

and as soon as michael and i got to his house, we cuddled and watched disney movies.

i'm glad michael's my soulmate.
