Some people think that soul mates are linked together mentally or spiritually, but some need a good slap upside the head to realize that they belong together. Others only find each other after something has happened, usually something horrible, like a death. The rest have to search for their missing half, sometimes driven to insanity due to being unable to find them.
I, on the other hand, found out the "kinda" hard way. Like a bright neon sign right in front of me that i never noticed. All the time I was looking for a soul mate that was human, while I should have noticed that he was not.
The door slammed against its frame, making the entire house shudder. I didn't care, even if it crashed to the ground, I wouldn't care. I just wanted to be left alone, to drown in my own thoughts. Tears streamed down my face, my mind trying to shove the memories away. Every single sight of the couples hugging and being together at school burned in my chest. It hurt. It hurt to see them and notice that I was always alone. No one wanted to be with me, even my friends. There were only three people who really cared about me, and I only saw them every two weeks. It wasn't enough to matter to me at the moment.
Closing my eyes, I keeled over onto the bed, making a wish before I conked out due to exhaustion.
'I wish... that someone would care about me. Just enough to prevent me from killing myself...'
I awoke, in a sense. My mind was conscious, but I didn't want to open my eyes. Instantly, I regretted what happened yesterday. 'Damn. What the hell was I thinking last night? Ugh- wait.' I moved my wrist, which felt slightly heavier than usual. Letting my eyes open just barely, I caught sight of a gold colored bracelet on my wrist. There was pale, cream colored cursive lettering on it, but I couldn't read it due to how curvy and sophisticated it was. The only word I could make out was the middle, two letter word that read "of".
"Oh shit." I let my head collapse back onto the pillow. It was too early to be morning, but hey. It was the weekend.
'Hey, look! It's-' Whak
I was awoken from my sleep due to somethin soft being forcefully slammed into the side of my head.
"FUCKIN HELL!" I glared at the person who dared to awaken me from my sleep. An i was havin such a good dream too.
"Get up, douthebag. You've thlept long enough. Actually, I would've let you thleep ath long ath you wanted, but FF wanted me two wake you up. I wath hoping that I wouldn't have two thee your dithgusting fathe at all today."
"Just get outta my fuckin room." I waited until he was gone. "Fuckin Sol." Wakin up is always horrible. Thankfully, the others just let me sleep almost all the time. It's better than bein made fun of all the time an such. Betcha none of them would care if I never came outta my room, or even woke up. Ah well. Guess I should get up now.
Slowly but surely, I made my way to the fuckin main room. Actually, I don't know what the fuck its even called. Kar just found a bunch of computers in it an we just always go there after we wake up an such.
"HEY ERIDAN!" Fuckin hell. It's Fef. An I look like someone just used me like a rag to clean up dirt. Fuck. "GUESS WHAT!" She bounded towards me with a fuckin grin that seemed to never end.
"Wwhat." Hopefully she doesn't notice that I'm a fuckin mess.
"You're supposed to guess, silly!"
"Do I havve to?"
"Yes! Just this once!"
"Ugh. Umm... Did Kar get stuck in a fuckin hole again?" Cod I hate guessin games.
"Nope!"
"Then wwhat."
"We get to go and visit the human's world in that universe we made!" Oh cod. The fuckin human's world. Fef looked down at my wrist. "Hey, whats that?!"
"Huh?" I glanced down. There was a navy blue bracelet on my wrist. I must have not noticed it earlier. "The fuck?" I looked at it closely. There were words that read "Knight of Void", but honestly, I didn't know someone who was a knight of void.
"It looks sooo pretty!" Fef stared at it in awe. "Where did you get it?!"
"I don't fuckin knoww."
"Can I have it?!"
"Shore." I tugged at it, but the bracelet didn't want to come off. "If it just wwill... Fuck." I gave up at trying to take the damn thing off, as it felt like I was tearin my wrist off.
"Oh, it's alright. Anywaves, I need to get ready for the trip to the human's planet! Its going to be reely fun!" Fef skipped away to her room, while I just mentally cursed at the damn bracelet. Fuck life.
"Urk" Well, there went my day. Being smothered by three girls was NOT a pleasant feeling. "Sam... Zoe... Dani... GET. OFF." I gasped as they clenched onto me with all their might.
"Zoe, that's enough." Sam was laughing at the blonde, both herself and Dani let go when I first asked them to. Still, she stayed attached to me like a leech.
"Dammit, Zoe, let go!" I tried to shove her hands off from around my waist. Frowning, I looked at the other two over Zoe's head. Yes, I was just about a head taller than all of them, even though I was only half a year older than Sam. I stood at around 5'8", in high contrast to the others being around 5'2" or so. "Get the midget off of me."
"I'm not a midget!" Zoe protested, and I took the chance to get away from her as her grip loosened.
"Hey, how about we go to the park!" Dani exclaimed, marching outside while dragging me with her.
"Ugh... Seriously?" I protested, "I'm tired..." Still, Dani dragged me into the garage and continued down the street with the other two following behind. I just trudged behind her, frowning. Life hated me so much. Soon I looked over and eyed the park. The old seesaws were gone, a new one in its place. At least the swings were there still. They were usually the first things we headed to, but at the moment, the benches seemed comfortable.
"Birdie, what are you doing?" Sam stared at me. The cold metal of the bench seemed very nice at the moment.
"Being tired and lazy. I wanna sleep." I stared out towards the parking lot. There were a few people, seeming vaguely familiar, but due to my half-asleepedness, I didn't give a shit.
"Eh..." I let my hand hang off the side and closed my eyes. It felt really nice outside. And in Texas, that was 68 degrees with a slight breeze. Damn I was so tired. Fuck life, I'm going to take a nap.
"So then, make sure you don't get fucking lost, and try to fucking blend in you assholes. It's already fucked up enough that we don't look like trolls here, so try and act like a human. Try to stay in your groups, too." Kar was yellin at us, but I honestly don't care. I don't wanna be here at all. Fuckin humans. I was stuck in a group with Nep and Eq. Not the most heart-warmin group. As soon as Kar an the others disappeared, I took off towards the park that was behind us.
"Eridan! Where are you going? Karkitty told us to stay in a group!"
"Fuck that. I'm goin ovver here. You guys go somewwhere else." Ugh. Nep was so annoyin. I started towards the pavilion.
"But Eridan-"
"I said fuck off." I simply flipped her off and sulked over on a bench under the pavilion. I just want to be by myself for a bit. Looking down, I started fiddling with the bracelet which seemed to have a death grip on my fuckin wrist. A strange sound came from somewhere, and I jerked my head towards a few girls on the damn swings.
"Holy shit! Zoe! My phone went off! We gotta get home! The game came in the mail!" One of them came near me, headin towards a girl that was on the bench across from me.
"Birdie! Get up! We gotta go home!" Seemed like the girl on the bench just was asleep, until the other one woke her up.
"Ugh... What Dani..."
"Just get up and come on!" I watched as they walked away- 'wait. What the fuckin hell is on her wrist?' I caught a glimpse of somefin gold an cream colored, 'but of course it doesn't mean anythin. I'm just assumin shit. Thats all.' Sighing, I just went back to sulking and pondering about why the hell I'm here.
