'Mom! Mom!' screamed a fidgety 4 1/2 year old girl. 'Oh,what is it lani? Is something wrong?' Answered a very pretty woman who was presumably her mother. 'What are those colours on your wrist?' the young girl asked, curiosity peaking is she slanted her head to the left-hand side.
'Ah, well you see this is a little mark that told me who my soulmate was,one is mine and one is his, they lead to me and daddy getting married,and having you! my beautiful little angel!'she responded , playfully tickling the toddler while saying the last few words.
'they look really pretty!when do I get mine?'the toddler asked while carefully running her fingers along her mothers soulmarks. 'Well you have to wait another eleven years for that my dear. Now would you kindly go tell daddy that dinners ready?' the woman asked with a fond smile on her face.
The youngers eyes lit up at the mention of her father as she jolted off down the hallway presumably to go get her father for dinner. Leaving her mother in the kitchen softly laughing to herself at how every single one of her daughters little exaggerated reactions make her day.

Eleven 1/2 years later...

'Lani-yah~ come downstairs please!' a faint shout was heard in the bedroom along with a very tired groan that belonged to a sleepy teenager laying in her bed. Lani was now 16, it was her birthday today, and she could not be more appalled by the request from her mother as it involved getting out of her nice,warm and comfortable bed. 'Lani-yah~ where are you,please come downstairs.
Dragging her feet along the floor lani made her way downstairs while tying her long brunette hair into a messy bun on the back of her head. 'I'm here,I've here.' lani stated as she dragged herself into the kitchen, scouting the area for possible jobs that her mother might've called her downstairs for. 'what exactly am I here for again' she questioned while rubbing her eyes trying to wake herself up. Causing her to not notice her father walk in behind her with a confetti canon.
'Surprise! Happy birthday sweetie.' Her father exclaimed clearly more exited for his daughters birthday than his daughter was herself. 'Thanks dad' she offered him a small smile as she filled her cereal bowl up with her breakfast and waddling out of the room. 'If your taking that upstairs then make sure that dish comes back down!' her mother shouted after her. 'Okay!' was heard back from the teenager in the distance.
With the hectic awakening this morning and due to the fact that she was wearing a sweatshirt, lani had not been given a chance to look at the marks on her arm that were supposed to have appeared while she was sleeping last night.
Slowly pulling her sleeve down she sees the usual lilac colour that belongs to her still sat at the top of her wrist, followed by a nice royal blue but after reaching the amount of marks that her mother has, Lani was shocked to see that after the royal blue came a eye catching sage green. Baffled by the extra mark, Lani continued to pull-up her sleeve to see that 11 more colours followed after the sage green.
The first colour on her wrist was of course her own lilac mark, followed by a royal blue, sage green and a ver pretty soft pink. After the pink was a cobalt blue, a soft orange , light grey and peach. If that didn't seem overwhelming enough to Lani there were more. A light yellow followed with a mossy green not far behind and then a gold. The last three were a nice salmon colour, along with a toffee brown, and last but not least a pretty turquoise colour.
But how many was that.. '1~2~3~4~5~6~7~8~9~10~11~12~13........13!!!' Lani shouted.

'Chan your back!' exclaimed seokmin, who had been waiting all day for his youngest soulmate to get back from school.(just clarifying, chan is the only one in school). All eyes that were previously focused on the movie playing on the Tv screen, quickly turned towards the direction of the door, where chan was stood ironically in one of Jun's hoodies, with the hood up to cover his face.
'Mhhm.' was the only reaction that the 12 boys ,with their limbs tangled together, received from the younger as he took his shoes of and walked into the kitchen. The older boys now all had worried looks painted on their faces while they waited for chan to return to the living room so they could ask him if he was ok.
After about five minutes chan returned to the lounge to collect his bag before slowly making his way to the stairs in an attempt to avoid any conversation with the older males. 'Channie would you come here a minute.' was heard from the couch and even though he had his back to the room chan could recognise the voice as Jeonghan's. 'shit!' was mumbled under the chan's breath as he made his way to the couch sitting on the very edge with his head still down.
This action cause many looks of confusion and concern from the others as wonwoo went to go kneel in front of the youngest. 'Chan you know you can tell us right, it's not like we're gonna judge you.'. As wonwoo finished the sentence he put his hand on chan's face lifing it up into his eyesight. Their other soulmates were then hit with another wave of pure confusion as wonwoo eyes then showed the urge to kill somebody. 'channie who did this to you?' wonwoo asked in a serious tone. Chan immediately burst into tears flinging himself onto the boy in front of him.
The rest of the boys faces quickly turned from confusion to anger as Chan released himself from wonwoos arms and turned his face to his other boyfriends.Unfortunately his hood had fallen down in the process of hugging wonwoo .Soonyoung immediately opened up his arms for the younger and within seconds the latter had crossed the room and into the welcoming arms of his soulmate.
'would you mind answering wonwoo's question sweetheart?' urged minghao in a soft tone ,as if to remind chan that non of them we're going to laugh at him, while stroking his hair delicately. 'yunho.' chan stated before placing his head back on Soonyoung chest.(Just a random name not yunho from Ateez). Seungcheol's face grew even redder with anger but he decided keeping his views to himself was better as he wanted to focus on chan right now.
Mingyu walked up to the younger and crouched in front of him, 'hey channie, how about I take you to shower while the hyungs set up the living room for a movie night with popcorn' he offered. Slowly chan clung onto mingyu as he was carried upstairs to the bathroom. 'I'll go get you some comfy clothes just wait a second. Chan leaned on the counter choosing not to look in the mirror while he waited for mingyu and after about 2 minutes the latter came back with one of his hoodies and some of seungkwans sweatpants as he was the closest in height to chan. 'I'll wait downstairs with the rest of the boys, shout if you need anything' mingyu stated, chan nodded and closed the bathroom before sighing and going to turn the shower on.
While waiting for the water to warm up he made the mistake of giving into urge to look in the mirror. Staring back at him was a boy with a bust lip, grazed cheek, bloody nose and a red eye that would surely be black by tomorrow. Thank god it was Friday today and he had Monday off due to teachers absence, he couldn't bear going into school with this face because of the fear that everyone would just assume that since his last two boyfriends left school last year he couldn't stand up for himself. A single tear made its way down his cheek before her hurriedly wiped it off and checked if the water was warm enough. Surely enough it was so he got undressed and went into the shower , almost instantly relaxing into the warm water running down his back.

Meanwhile downstairs....
'does the he really think that just because we've all left now, that he can just go back to beating him up again' seungcheol slightly shouted while pacing around quite obviously agitated by the situation. 'I don't know hyung but he better give it up cause I'm not gonna go easy on him next time!' answered vernon who would've already left to confront this yunho guy if it wasn't for seungkwan stopping him by hugging his side obviously upset by the sight of his broken down youngest boyfriend.
You see this wasn't the first time that yunho had done this, he was in chan's year/grade and had been beating up chan while the soulmates walked past on the first day of chan's first year in the school. It was through this experience that they found out chans relation to themselves but that did not make it better. Yunho had only stopped after that because of the older boys and the idea of that continuing when they left was the only concern the older boys had with leaving the school.
'No one's beating anyone up okay we'll figure something out later but for now we just have to make channie feel comfortable while we watch the movie, okay' instructed Joshua earning nods from all the boys though the ones from seungcheol, wonwoo, soonyoung, mingyu and vernon were reluctant.
The rest of the night was spent making sure chan who spent most of it in the comforting arms of jihoon was happy. And in the end that was all that mattered.
A/n okay I'm sorry I just needed some drama for the first chapter. Anyway I hope u enjoyed and I'll write the next chapter as quick as I can.
