Thanks for the reviews, you guys~~

I already have some chapters written, so they should be coming at a reasonable pace. I love Viktuuri, but it's going to take a little bit to get to the juicy stuff- of which there will be plenty. But don't get worried, your silver-haired prince will be coming soon!

-one week later-

"Phichitttt-kunnnn you need to wake up! School starts today!"

I only got a roll of my best friend's body in response, and sighed again. What can we do to wake this Sleeping Beauty up... Hmm... I've got it! I leaned closer to the boy and whispered in his ear,

"Phichit, I've got your phone~"

He bolted straight upright and batted around for the mean being who claimed to have stolen his phone. I just giggled and walked back to the room's bathroom, grateful for its existence. Otherwise, I would have had to share a communal floor bathroom- not appealing to me one bit.

After Phichit realized his phone and pictures within were safe, he finally dressed and prepared for the day.

"Hey, what's your schedule look like this week, Yuri? Do we have any classes together?" Asked Phichit. I handed over the papers that listed all my classes, and to my relief, we somehow had a good amount of the same classes- excluding his dance major courses, obviously.

This news was followed by my roommate running up to me and hugging me in happiness. Unfortunately, being the clumsy person that I am, I lost footing and fell on the floor. Phichit got tugged down in the accident, and conveniently landed flat on top of me.

We stayed frozen like that for a few seconds, looking into each other's eyes in shock. I noted a light blush graced his cheeks, and I'm sure mine reflected that. Phichit mumbled in my ear,

"Yuri? Do you want something, or is there another reason you're still holding me?"

I instantly looked away, mortified by the fact that my arms were still wrapped around his waist, the way they were when I tried to stop the fall. I began to get up and move away, desperate to escape this intense atmosphere, when he started again.

"Not that I mind it, of course."

My eyes were probably wider than what was even possible, and all I could make out was a shy "Umm... Phichit..."

He instantly broke eye contact and looked to a random spot on the floor.

"Hahah Yuri. You know I was just messing with you. Just messing. Let's-let's get on our way to class. We have the first one together, right? Haha, just kidding around. Let's go."

I decided not to mention his strange actions for now. Phichit seemed to be hiding something, and I didn't want my roommate and I's relationship to fall apart after only one week.

We left the dorm, silence hanging over us like a dark cloud. I itched to get rid of this uncomfortable atmosphere, and said the first thing that came to mind.

"So Phichit, have you- umm... found your s-soulmate?"

I immediately clamped my hands over my mouth. This was something people didn't talk about much with people they knew very well, much less those who they have only known for a week. Whether or not you found your soulmate was a personal matter, and usually a quite sad one, because many could not find theirs.

One could only find their soulmate between when they were twenty and twenty-five years old. There could only be a five-year age difference between two members of a pair. To make it even more difficult, the initial sign that one has made contact with their soulmate is a burn where they first touched your skin. It is quite hard to just get close enough to a person to casually touch them, much less directly touch their skin.

After that, a strong bond forms between two soulmates. It is hard to be separated from them, and you constantly feel drawn to them. If one gets rejected by their soulmate, it can be very detrimental to their health, and, in extreme cases, can have fatal results.

Knowing all this, and how touchy this could be for a person, Yuri much regretted bringing up the topic to Phichit. What if he didn't meet his soulmate in time? What if something happened to his soulmate, and now I seem inconsiderate? Agh, I'm so stupid!

"Well, I'm only eighteen, so I haven't noticed anything yet… Wait Yuri-kun, how old are you?"

I blushed intensely for my mistake. "Well, I'm twenty…"

Phichit looked at me in awe. "Wow, you're so old, Yuri! Have YOU found your soulmate yet?"

I blushed even more, certain that my cheeks were a deep shade of red. I responded, "No, not yet…"

Phichit looked away and mumbled, "Good."

After this awkward ending, we resumed our normal conversations. Man, I'm glad that we're back to normal. Though what did Phichit-kun mean when he said "good"? Why would he be happy that I haven't found my soulmate yet? I'm done with being confused. I'll ask him.

"Hey Phichit-kun…" I said, breaking off the conversation. "What did you mean when you said "good" when I told you I haven't found my soulmate yet?"

He looked caught off guard and answered.

"Yuri, don't worry yourself about it. I didn't even realize I said it, haha! Don't get worried about insignificant things. C'mon now, if we don't hurry, we won't make it to class! Keep up, little piggy!" he said with a wink.

He sprinted ahead, and I ran my hardest to catch up with him. One thing was for certain: If I hang around Phichit for much longer, I was sure to get in shape- hopefully eradicating the nickname "Piggy" from existence.
