No One's POV
The two hermits never separated after their first interaction, wherever one went the other always was right behind them. Grian's friends would often tease the poor boys calling them "boyfriends" or "lover birds". It didn't upset the two men only making them flustered by the comments. They both did have feelings for each other but both refused to tell each other and if they tried to the other was too oblivious to understand. That didn't matter to them though, they were madly in love with each other regardless, unless one of them got themselves a boyfriend.
It happened to be that around the age of 16 - 18 you find out who you're soulmate is. Grian was not excited like every other girl around his age group was. He already loved Scar and couldn't bare the idea of Scar not being his soulmate. He didn't have a choice but to figure out his soulmate since on any day his left eye or a piece of his hair will change color to one where he and his soulmate share. He dreaded every day, hoping not to wake up to who his soulmate was.

Grian's POV
I stretched my arm muscles as much as possible, I had just woken up and was in a sour mood as always. No one around me seemed to notice since it was because Scar always made me feel better or I was incredibly good at hiding my feelings. It didn't matter because by the time I opened my eyes I knew something was wrong. It was oddly quiet, no birds were chirping and it only creeped me out. I grabbed a change of clothes and walked into my bathroom to change. I was having some trouble pulling up my trousers like I hadn't ever done it before. That only confused me much more since I didn't struggle at all days before putting my trousers on. I started to get frustrated and let out a grunt of annoyance. I put my hand on the sink to balance myself, it helped me put on my trousers finally and I quickly zipped them up, knowing I was going to be late because of a stupid pair of jeans.
I looked up from zipping my jeans, my fluffy hair dripped over my right eye and I noticed my eye was a purple colour. I grabbed the hair that covered my left eye and noticed it was black. Dread started to seep in as I realized I now had a soulmate. A frown seemed to form on my face and my mood turned sourer and not even Scar's affection would make me feel better. I grumpily put the rest of my clothes on and stormed out of my room to grab my backpack and phone. My mum seemed to notice my mood but shrugged it off, she didn't want to annoy me any further.
I had made it to class and noticed some other kids also had gotten their soulmates and either they were looking for their significant other or they were chatting away with their soulmates. I rolled my eyes and walked to a bench where I normally met the other hermits.
I heard the sound of Mumbo and Scar talking to each other and I slightly perked up at their voices.
"Oh, hey Gri!" Scar exclaimed, clearly happy to see me. I smiled shyly at him then realized he had gotten his soulmate. It was the same colour as my eye and I gasped quietly.
"Sup Poultry Man," Mumbo said, raising his hand in a wave-like gesture. I rolled my eyes at the nickname, one of the millions I had by this point.
"So have you gotten your soulmate?" Scar asked me, I wanted to say that he was MY soulmate but I couldn't bring myself to say it. Instead, I shook my head a no. He seemed to understand and not see that my eye was the same colour as his hair, although my hair was covering the eye.
"Why is your hair covering your eye..?" Mumbo asked me as we followed a skipping Scar.
"Oh it's just the colour of my soulmate," I shrugged and he seemed to have his jaw hanging.
"So why don't you show me?" He asked and I started to blush, Mumbo hadn't gotten his eye or hair to change colour to what his soulmate also had. There were some cases where some people had no soulmate. I guess that was the case for Mumbo
"I um.." I wasn't allowed to finish my sentence as my hair was pretty violently shoved to the side, allowing anyone to see the colour it was.
I heard Mumbo let out a loud gasp before screaming, "YOUR SCARS SOULMA-," I quickly put my hand over his mouth as Scar stopped skipping.
"Won't you shut up!" I said threatening Mumbo, from the corner of my eye I saw Scar staring at me.
"Aren't you gonna tell him?" Mumbo asked after I removed my hand from his mouth.
"Maybe, but it's too early," I whined and threw my hands up.
"Well you better tell him soon," Mumbo told me, shrugging as he walked away from my dumbfounded self.

Time Skip
I and Scar were sitting next to each other since it was lunch. We were in our little world as our other friends were in there's. Occasionally girls would come up to Scar "claiming" they were his soulmate, but when he asked for proof they would stutter or walk away. It started to get repetitive and was angering me.
"Um.. are you Scar?" I heard an annoying female voice ask, I rolled my eyes as I heard Scar saying yes.
"Oh, I'm your soulmate!" The girl said.
"Um.. do you have any proof..?" he asked meekly, I could hear the shakings in his voice which only made me scoff.
"Oh yeah!" She moved her hair aside to show a dyed purple. It wasn't even dyed the same shade as Scar's mark.
"Oh please, it's dyed." I scoffed. She gave me an offended gasp and looked at me with hatred.
"And how would you know!" she asked defensively, the hermits around us seemed to quiet down from the commotion.
"Because I'm his soulmate," I hissed at her and parted my hair to show a purple eye on my left. She got angry at the colour and started to throw a hissy fit.
"That could be eye contact!!! You don't have any proof!!" She yelled at me, "And neither do you." I gave her a dead stare. She seemed to be a tomato by how red she got, I could even see the steam coming out of her ears if I looked hard enough.
"I don't believe it!" She screamed at me. I rolled my eyes at her and I knew if I didn't stop her now I'd get a headache. I remembered whenever soulmates kiss or show some sort of romantic affection their mark goes lighter. I had a brilliant plan and decided that right now was the best time.
I scooted over to Scar, pulling myself onto his lap. He gave me a dazed look and his face grew a red shade I had never seen. I cupped his cheeks and brought his face towards mine. We brushed our lips against each other before kissing. His eyes widened slightly but fluttered close. I scooted further up his lap and closed my eyes as well. Although I couldn't see this I knew Scar's streak faded slightly by the girl gasping.
We pulled away panting and I looked at the girl, I moved my hair out of my eye and her face turned even more red from anger.
She stormed off, I stuck my tongue out at her when she glanced back at me and Scar. Scar, of course, was completely awestruck.
"I thought you didn't have a soulmate!" exclaimed Scar
"Yeah sorry for not telling you sooner," I said shyly, "She was just getting on my nerves." I complained, rolling my eyes as I heard "told you so" from one of the hermits. I caught Xisuma handing Iskall $10.
"Of course they were betting," I hissed under my breath. Scar seemed to have heard what I said since he started to giggle.
"It's not that deep Grian," he reassured me but I just shrugged it off. I barely processed that I was still on Scar's lap so I started to scramble off. But I felt arms snake around my waist and pull me closer. My face turned bright red as I snuggled into the crook of his neck.
He put his hand to the back of my head as I doozed off, taking a deep breath before everything went dark.

??? POV
"So you got everything?" I asked impatiently.
"Yeah I do" ??? responded
"Okay good, I don't want him to be allowed to roam around this earth anymore." I hissed, putting the items onto my desk.
"Understood sir," ??? bowed before leaving the room.
I watched as she closed the door behind her and left one of my other men behind.
"Do you need anything?" I asked impatiently.
"Oh, why are we doing this..?" he asked. Looking down to the floor while he waited for a respond, figeting with his hands.
"Because that homosexual is a disgrace to society, and he had the audacity to steal my daughters boyfriend." My hand shook with anger as I slammed my fist onto my desk, scaring my employee.
"Uh.. um... un-understood!!" He said before scrambing out of my office. I scoffed softly before going back to planning the death of that disgrace of a man.
