so in this au

you’re in college

you’re an enviromental science major

and this is your first year!

you haven’t met your soulmate yet

which isn’t super uncommon, tbh

but it is slightly uncommon

just uncommon enough for you to be the odd one out in your group of friends

anyway

the marks change with the generations

so your parents couldn’t see color until they made eye contact

which was really cute

but you? your generation?

you’re incapable of causing physical harm to your soulmate

which is, to say the least

less cute

but it didn’t make it too terribly awful for you to meet your soulmate

if you couldn’t hurt them

they were the one

so you cruised along high school and through half of your first year of college

and by december, you were kinda done with living in l.a.

like, it’s a great city, and you were so thankful for the opportunity to study at the university that you were at

but nothing was happening

so you started looking into studying abroad

you were looking at thailand!

since they had a lot of english speakers, it really seemed to be your best bet

almost as soon as you applied, you were accepted

...and then you got sick the week before you were supposed to be going

which, of course, was the worst case scenario

so your friend was stuck taking care of you while you were moping about

because you couldn’t go and see the world when you had planned to

(and because you didn’t get your money back wtf college)

but then your friend got sick

like as soon as you got better

wtf

so y’all quarantined yourselves

in your dorm

(lucky you had a solo, right?)

but your friend was, sadly, a caffine addict

so one day, she sent you out to the closest coffee shop on campus, just to get a few coffee-y things

and, since you were a good friend

(and since you got her sick)

you begrudgingly went out and got her the coffee

and holy shit, it was busy

you were kinda shocked at first, but the main thing was, nobody was really ordering???

people were just kinda chilling around the shop, avoiding leaving??

as far as you were aware, there was nothing terrible going on around campus

and there was nothing to suggest that there was any type of deal or competition in the cafe itself

so you were vastly confused

until you saw him

holy shit

he looked like an angel??? and he smiled every time he took someone’s order, and wrote their name on the cup in such an amazing way --

okay, [y/n], b r e a t h e

you’re up

so you managed to get through your order, only stuttering once or twice

(you blamed it on being sick recently)

and then he looked up at you

with those glittering, amber brown eyes

and there were tears in yours oh my god

“[Y/N]?” he paused for a second. “oh, sorry, it’s just...i think you’re friends with my friend felix?”

and you and felix had had a few classes together before, and you had bonded over some dumb shit, so yeah, you would consider the two of you to be friends, so you nodded

“i think he talked about you before, and you seem cool. we should hang sometime!” you nodded because this aNGEL WAS STILL TALKING TO YOU

the next minute or so was honestly a blank, you were recovering from his existence near you

like,, how did felix not tell you his friend was the MOST BEAUTIFUL PERSON TO EXIST

buuut you were less salty when you heard seungmin, as you learned his name was, called your name out for your order

and you were nervous, okay? this was your first time meeting him, this was your first impression, so this would make or break you

and you’re an idiot

and you ended up holding the cup too tight

causing the cup to burst

on your and seungmin’s hands

which?? was weird.

the cup in question had your name on it, and you could’ve sworn you asked for a hot drink??

but it wasn’t hot

it wasn’t cold, either

or warm or cool

it just felt...wet. not any temperature, really

well, maybe room temperature

it wasn’t even steaming on your skin

while you were focused on that, seungmin was apologizing profusely

“ohmygod, i’m so so so sorry,” he insisted, “i’ll get you a new one, i’m so tired and that’s no excuse i just --”

“it’s okay, seungmin,” you interrupted him

“it...it doesn’t hurt??” he questioned

“no?” you responded, not totally sure how to respond

“oh.”

he awkwardly handed you the other drink, and you stood around the counter for a moment while you waited for your drink to be remade

the cafe, oddly enough, was silent

uncomfortably silent

you could feel everyone’s eyes on you

seungmin handed you your drink again, this time more carefully

“again, i’m so sorry,” he repeated

“no, no, it’s okay,” you repeated

you walked out the door, your heart beating fast

like,, holy shit, you just saw an angel

your friend looked at you weirdly when you got back

like, you were covered in coffee, probably hot coffee, but you seemed okay

a little dazed, but okay

but she was sick as hell, so she just kinda mumbled “coffee” and sipped on it, eyes closed

the whole thing was sort of forgotten, especially after you showered quickly and changed

as if it never happened

by the next week, your friend was better, and you weren’t sick again, and you’d drank a lot of coffee

like, an intense amount

but you hadn’t gone back to that shop

for some reason, you felt weird about going back to the shop you’d seen seungmin at

you honestly hadn’t felt that way about someone in a long time, if ever

and you didn’t know how you felt about that

he was nice, yeah, and he put butterflies in your stomach

but you had a soulmate out there somewhere, you knew that

and you didn’t want to risk that

but, damn, seungmin knew how to make good coffee

something was drawing you to that coffee shop again, and you could only avoid it for so long

so, one day, your friend essentially dragged you to the little shop

...she didn’t know about the thing with seungmin, you figured it didn’t matter to tell her

your connection to him was through felix, so it wasn’t like the two would connect

...right??

sadly, you were wrong

as hell

“oh, hey, [y/f/n]!” seungmin exclaimed as soon as the two of you. “and [y/n]! it’s been a while, how are you two?”

you froze, while [y/f/n] sort of...paused for a second. “oh, seungmin? french last year, right?”

“yeah!” he responded. “prenez-vous toujours la classe?”

“non,” she replied with a sad smile on her face, “j'ai dû abandonner.”

you were immensely confused, but just kinda dealt with it. they spoke in french for another minute or so, and then when they stopped, your friend ordered for the two of you

luckily, not in french

he offered to bring it to you, the cafe being less busy than usual, and the two of you graciously accepted

it only took a few minutes, but, while you were sitting, you and your friend started discussing random things

specifically, the two of you decided to tell the stupidest story you could come up with

bonus points for it being unrealistic

so you started going bullshitting, making something up about a rat you’d seen that was thiiiiis big

(you stretched your arms out as far as you could to make your point)

...hitting seungmin in the chest, spilling your coffee, this time, on him

the heat very clearly rose from his chest, steaming a little bit in the cold air

but he didn’t seem phased beyond being wet now

“sorry about that!” he apologized

“no, no, it’s okay!” you insisted again

“i’ll go get you a new one.”

your friend kinda looked at you weirdly as he walked off, his head cocked slightly to the side.

“what?” you asked quietly

she raised her eyebrows. “didn’t he spill your coffee on you last time? and it didn’t hurt?”

“yeahh…” you responded, trailing off. “why?”

“and you spilled your coffee on him this time, and it didn’t hurt him.”

“yeah? so?”

“dude, what if he’s your soulmate?”

“there’s really no way to tell.”

she cocked her eyebrow again, sipping at her coffee. “yeah, there is, and you know what you have to do.”

begrudgingly, you followed seungmin to the back, where he was trying his best to get the coffee off of him, while simoutaneously making your new cup.

“do you need help…?” you asked quietly.

he shook a little bit, obviously surprised, but nodded a little bit.

“yeah, if you want. can you pull a cup out of there? and a few packs of creamer. maybe some sugar, too.”

you nodded, immediately doing what he asked. “so, i have a sort of weird question.”

“i’m sure i’ve heard weirder,” he promised. “what’s up?”

you thought for a second about how to ask him. finally, you took a deep breath, mentally preparing yourself to switch schools. “[y/f/n] thinks we might be soulmates, and she told me to test it. did the coffee hurt you?”

“no, it was really more...annoying than anything. just kinda...wet. it didn’t hurt you the other week, either, did it?”

“no. how would we even test this? i-if you want to.”

“yeah, i’m down to.” he paused. “slap me,” he suddenly said.

“what?”

“if it hurts, we’ll know! c’mon!” he grabbed your hand. “please?”

you paused. “i...okay.” you tried to relax your shoulders, ready to grab ice when it inevitably didn’t work.

then you did it

you smacked him

not too hard, your handprint showed up for only a split second

but enough to cause pain to anyone else

but, aside from moving his head slightly from the pressure, he felt nothing

“holy shit,” he whispered, staring at you intently

your breathing was heavy before you wrapped him in a hug

whether you usually would or not, you did this time

that was one stressor out of your life

you knew your soulmate; the person you’d spend the rest of your life with

and you had honestly never been so happy to have been sick

or to need coffee

just

woah
