(Y/n) smiles at the pedestrians as he walks down the sidewalk back home. He was at Wal-Mart buying school supplies since school was starting soon on August 8Th. Shame its on a Wednesday, always a Wednesday. The 16 year hated high school, so after he finishes his Sophomore year, he was getting his G.E.D. and heading to a University. He didn't care if that lowered his chance of finding his soulmate.

It was called the "Red String of Fate". A invisible red string was tied around a person's pinky and their soulmate's pinky. It only becomes visible when you see your soulmate for the first time in person. His parents were soul-mates, hell, everyone in his family had their soul-mates before the age of 15.But (Y/n) of course, was a special case. He was uninterested in finding the love of his life, what was the point? He didn't need one to live, he was getting by just fine without one.

(Y/n)'s newbackpack that was filled with newly bought school supplies was starting to hurt his back. Frowning, the (tall/short) male started walking faster under the sun's blazing heat in the hopes to heat home faster. (Y/n) moved out of his parents house 5 months ago into a shared apartment with his best friend Jennifer. Jennifer and (Y/n) had grown up together since they were in diapers. She found her soulmate very earlywhen she was 7, making (Y/n) a third wheel. Not that he cared, she never neglected him.

(Y/n) sighed as he finally reached his 2 bedroom apartment, happy that it was on the first floor. Unlocking the door, he sees Jenny sleeping on the couch. Smiling, he walks to his room and puts his backpack down. He opens a box of black pens and takes one out. Going back to the living-room, he draw a happy face on her forehead.

Being the giggly bitch he was, his laughter ended up waking her. She yawns as she stretches, her hand accidentally smacking (Y/n) in the face.

"What did you do..." she frowns seeing the pen in his hand, "Didyou draw dick on me?"

She gets up to look at herself in the mirror in her bathroom. (Y/n) only rolls his eyes as he turns the t.v. on. There was nothing interesting on, so he just left it on the news channel. Jennifer comes out the bathroom with a wet rag, she was rubbing it against her forehead.

"Dude, sometimes I think you're men-"

"-Wait," (Y/n) cuts her off by turning the t.v. up.

"...6 foot 3 with light brown hair and dark green eyes," a picture was shown of a surprisingly handsome man who seems to be in his 20's, "He goes by "Red Strings". He is currently in the city of Buckeye, Arizona and we advise you to please lock all windows and doors. Stay inside, and stayalive. His name is Maxwell Ashine Xaline, if you see this man, please hide and call the police-"

The t.v. abruptly turns off.

"Hey!" (Y/n) shouts at Jenny, "He's here in the neighborhood, dude. Why you turn it off?"

"Alec is gonna be here soon,go to your room and watch it," she explains while she starts cleaning the living-room.

(Y/n) rolls his eyes before getting up from the sofa. He goes to the kitchen to get a cup of Dippin Dots from the fridge and a cold water bottle. Walking to his room he turns the t.v. on and changes it to the news channel. He places his Dipping Dots and water on the bed as he walks to his window.

"...axwell was last seen at 720 East Narramore Ave. last night," the blonde woman on t.v. informed.

(Y/n) frowned as he locks his window shut. That was too close to where he lived.

"Please lock your windows and doors. We advise you all to stay inside until informed otherwise."

(Y/n) turns the t.v. off as he gets into bed. He chargeshis phone and grabs his tablet. Going to Youtube, he decided to re-watch Who Killed Markiplier. Opening his Dippin Dots, he enjoys himself for a while. After the 3rd episode, he ends up falling a sleep with a mouth full of Dippin Dots.
