A/N- all voices in her head are in italics.

I woke up in the morning in a daze, did I really get 7 tattoos. I ran to the bathroom and checked my chest and sure enough there stood 7 small tattoos. I knew I'd have to hide these for now. People would talk about me and that would just freak you out even more than I already was.

The more I thought about it the more I started to panic. I would occasionally get panic attacks, but this set me off the edge more than normal. I slid down to the floor put my head in my hands and just took the deep breathes my therapist and doctor trained me to do in these situations. It never got easier but at least I was breathing.

After about 30 min I started to hear my friends stirring out in the living room. "Melody, you okay in there?" I heard through the door. "Yea I'm ok, I am just panicking at little. I think I'm ok now though" I softly spoke back to Sam through the door. "Just give me a few more minutes." Sam said OK and walked away from the door.

I picked myself back up and splashed some water on my face to get the tears off and cool myself back down. Taking another deep breath and walked out the bathroom. My friends grabbed me and pulled me into a big hug. What would I do without these two? "I am so happy you both were here, I don't think I would have been able to handle that without you both. You don't hate me for having more than one Soulmate?"

Both girls gave me a look that said seriously you idiot? "Why in the world would you think that?" Sam said. Erica equally as annoyed. "I swear it's like you don't think we will support you or something."

They both were always so protective of me it was a relief that my bad thoughts were all just in my head.

"Well! Now we just have to wait to hear from you when you start hearing them! You better tell us as soon as it happens, or else we won't forgive you!" Sam said. Erica nodded agreeing with Sam. "Yea you better! I want to make sure these 7 don't hurt you!"

I rolled your eyes at them "of course I will! Who else would I tell your closer to me that my own family."

A week later I had just gotten home from work and was making myself some dinner. Listening to some music and humming to myself. When suddenly I heard something in my head. Hey, I like that song! Your voice is so pretty.

"What the!!" I screamed out loud. I thought back at the voice hello?

Hi! - the voice spoke back.

Melody- umm sorry, I was a little surprised, I wasn't expecting to hear you yet. I only got my tattoo a week ago.

Voice-It's okay, I've been waiting years to hear you. I'm 28. My name is Seok-Jin, but you can call me Jin

Melody- I'm Melody, it's nice to hear you. Sorry, that's corny.

Jin- no I like it! I make a lot of corny jokes so don't change please.

Melody- Sorry I'm just super surprised. Your voice is nice too, not to be forward but I'm glad that I am hearing you first. I'm not sure if you know, or how this even works but I have 7 tattoos. Do you only have one?

Jin- Hey its okay, no need to get nervous or anything, yes, I only have 1 on my chest but I know the other 6 of your soulmates, we each have your same tattoo on us.

Melody- What? Really? How do you know them? Sorry I have so many questions. I am so glad I'm not hearing you all at once. That would be too much, I think.

Jin- Well are you sure you want to know? I don't want to overwhelm you at all. Plus, I'm not sure I would be fair for you to see all of us before we all talk to you.

Melody- your right, but once I talk to all of you, please tell me, ok?

Jin- Of course, ill make sure the others don't spoil it for you either! I wonder how long until you hear from another one of us. Since it's only been a week, I would assume you may hear them quicker than normal.

I talked to Jin for a little longer, I mentioned I was cooking, and he asked me to walk him through what i was doing. He was a foodie and was loving the impromptu cooking show in his head.

Once Jin left my head, I took a deep breathe and felt peace, no panic, no guilt just peace. Man, this Soulmate stuff really is crazy. The introvert talking to her first Soulmate, and she felt like she was with the person forever, no awkwardness or anything. I guess we really were meant to be.

"Oh Crap!!!" I said grabbing my phone and messaging Sam and Erica.

*GUYS! I heard one of them!

Sam- OMG GIRL WHATS HIS NAME!

Erica- Yea Spill!! We want the details!

*Ok ok!  His name is Jin, he's 28 and he's so sweet

* I was making dinner when it happened and guess what he knows my other Soulmates!

Erica- OMG are you serious!

Sam- what did he tell you about them?? I'm dying here!

*Here's the funny part, he wants me to talk to them first!

* He won't tell me everything about them until I hear from them, how sweet is that?

Sam- OOO I hope you hear from them soon! I want to know everything!

Erica- Me too! And its only been a week! It must be since you have more than one!

*that's what we thought too! But ill keep you all updated. I need to eat!

Erica- you better girl! Love you!!

Sam- Same! The min it happens!!

*OK I promise!! Love you both!

I sat on the couch and ate my food, content and happy I finally had the first piece of my Soul. I couldn't help but wonder what was my next Soulmate like?
