Soulmate | l.h punk

1 | Luke

As soon as I stepped into the school the beautiful aroma of mint hit me like a ton of bricks. I couldn't help but take in a deep breath, never wanting to let go of her scent but I had to in order to breath properly. The amazing scent told me she had arrived and of course like every other day of the week I would keep an eye out for her. She didn't know who I was but I knew her, that sounded awfully creepy but it was true. She was mine, she didn't know it yet but she would soon. Hopefully. I knew she was my soulmate by the tattooed initials on the back of my neck. S.A, they stood for Sophie Adams. I knew before I found out her name that we where Soulmate's, there was an unbreakable bond between us, which was just to damn hard to miss.

Left and right students swarmed the hallways trying to get to their own lockers but I couldn't be bothered. It's not like the teachers expected me to be at class on time and with the right utensils so why try? It was a motto I lived by. Some people got through school with being on time and doing everything right but I was not one of them.

Making my way to Michael's locker my heart thudded in my chest at the thought of getting a glimpse of her. I had been like this the whole week, not even bothering to tell the others since they already had an idea of what was going on.

Michael knew everything though. That's why he was the only one out of them I trusted to the fullest. It was funny to think about it, a week ago I didn't know who the girl was but now she was my everything. A week ago I didn't care about anyone but now I couldn't help but wonder about her, every second of every day that was painfully passing at such a slow rate. I wanted time to go faster as the quicker she would turn eighteen and know that I was hers. Her soulmate.

I was sure she could feel the bond between us which was why I kept my distance, I don't want her to know right now. Her finding out could go two ways, either her accepting me for the crazy punk I was or rejecting me because of how different we were. The second one made me shudder inwardly but if that was her decision I wouldn't protest, I mean this was like karma. It was a bitch and new exactly what it was doing when it paired us together. I guess that's what I got for not being perfect like everyone in the entire fucking world.

Not one person glanced my way as I walked past them through the corridor. They avoided me like the plague but I wasn't complaining, the last guy that came in my way didn't exactly come back to school. I think he died. Just fucking with you... he probably moved school. Not that I knew.

"What's up loser." Michael shouted as he saw me approaching him. I rolled my eyes, he was the most out going person I had ever met. He also had the weirdest style, for me my usual wardrobe was black skinnys, a t-shirt and my signature leather jacket but Michael was a bit more diverse with his clothing. He however still went with the black theme as his crazy styled hair was the exact shade of black. He had on a red tartan shirt, dark blue skinny jeans and a black leather jacket. Like mine his arms where covered with multiple tattoos and he also had a couple of piercings, here and there.

"Say it to the whole world why don't ya!" The bell wrung and every student which was in the hall way moved faster, each of them trying to get to their classes first. What pansies. Michael was leaning against his locker glaring at a couple girls who where looking at us as they passed by but then turned glancing at me. Even then some girls couldn't help but look at us as if they wanted to eat us whole, they really needed to calm their shit down and wait for their Soulmates. Even though most of us where jerks we couldn't just go ahead and be with another girl, it was like stabbing your soulmate in their back with a knife.

"Wanna ditch this shit hole?" A small smile spread out on my face, which honestly didn't happen very often but he was Michael. I couldn't not smile when he acted like a dog could I? But as soon as it came it went away as I thought about not being able to see her all day. I just couldn't manage going a whole day with seeing her, it put me to peace knowing she was fine.
