Hello!...Hello everyone!

I was so excited for this one AU and I will put it on the list of possible stories if you liked it.

30 AU Challenge:

8 – Soulmate AU

Little Seras Victoria sat on the sofa in the living room while her parents sat across from her, each one of them sat on an armchair. Her mother had a smile across her face while her father was staring at the window looking very uncomfortable as if not wanting to be here. Seras processed what her parents just told her.

"A Soulmate?" She asked still confused.

"Yes, Sweetheart." Said her mother nodding." Everyone in this world has a Soulmate that they are destined to, even you."

"Like you and daddy?" Her question made her mother blush and her father chuckle. They turned to look at each other, their eyes filled with love for the other.

"Yes, like mommy and daddy." Said her father as he took his wife's hand to kiss it.

Seras smiled at how in love her parents were. It made her happy that one day she will have someone to look at the same way, but her smile faltered when a question came to her.

"How do I know if I had a Soulmate?" She asked pulling her parents away from their moment.

"It's very simple, sweetie." Said her mother as she reached out for a pen that was on the coffee table, then rolled down her sleeve showing her forearm, then drew something on it and showed to Seras. It was a heart. "When you write or draw anything on your skin it will show in your Soulmate's skin."

Seras turned to her father to see if what her mother was saying is true. Her father smirked as he pulled down his own sleeve and Seras's eyes widened when she saw that on the same spot that her mother drew the heart on her right forearm was the same heart on her father's forearm. Seras then looked down at her own pale bare skin.

Now, Seras sat alone in her bedroom, on her bed, still staring at her forearm. Wondering if she should test if she had a Soulmate or not. Her parents told her that it was alright if she wanted to contact her Soulmate but they still explained to her how she should concentrate on her life for now and worry about love later when she is older. Seras didn't care for love, at least not yet. But she still really wanted to talk to her destined one, maybe they can be best friends like how her parents are. The idea of having a best friend encouraged Seras to jump off her bed and set in front of her desk. She grabbed a light blue color pen and with a big grin on her face, she started to write excitedly.

"Hello."

She stared down at her left forearm and waited, never looking away fearing that she might miss something. She waited and waited. Her smile faltered when she still didn't get any response. Seras began to think that maybe her Soulmate hasn't seen their forearm yet or that they didn't feel like talking…or maybe she didn't have a Soulmate…Just then when Seras was about to wipe away what she wrote and go to bed, black letters appeared under what she wrote.

"Hello there."

The writing was cursive, which impressed Seras because her handwriting was messy in compare to her Soulmate's. Seras then felt a mix of excitement and panic, she was excited to know that she had a Soulmate but now she panicked because she didn't know what to say. She wanted to go and tell her parents but she felt that if she did they would be upset with her for doing something they told her not to do. So she sat back on her chair still looking at the writing, she took a couple of tissues and wiped her writing to have more space to write since her arm was small. She took a deep breath before she wrote down trying her best to make her letters small but clear, so it won't be hard to read.

"Are you my Soulmate?"

With that question, her Soulmate writing was gone, and new words appeared.

"I am talking to you am I not?"

A happy smile spread on Seras's face, missing the sarcasm that her Soulmate was attempting.

"I am so happy I was afraid that I did not have a Soulmate."

She waited for a little while to give her Soulmate a chance to read what she wrote before wiping it away to give them space. She started to feel anxious because they were taking a bit longer to reply but they did.

"So did I."

Wrote her Soulmate.

"I waited so long for you."

Seras frowned at that.

"You have?"

"Yes."

"Were you lonely?"

"Yes."

Seras paused for a moment feeling guilty.

"I am sorry"

"Don't be for it was not your fault in any way."

Seras bit her lower lip not knowing what to say next, but it looked like she didn't have to because her Soulmate started asking her.

"How old are you?"

"I am 8 years old."

"Where are you from?"

"From Cheddar."

There was a pause.

"Which country are you from?"

Seras raised a brow in bewilderment. Weren't they from the same country as her? She assumed that her Soulmate would be English just like her, yet again her mother did tell her that Soulmates can come from anywhere in the world. She started writing again.

"I am from England."

She wrote down.

"Where are you from?"

"I am from Romania."

Seras titled her head to the side trying to remember ever hearing that name, and she did.

"Like where Dracula is from?"

Last Halloween, her father dressed up as a vampire and called himself Dracula. She then asked him who Dracula was, next thing she knew it was already passed her bedtime and they haven't even come near finishing that topic. She was pulled out of her thoughts when her Soulmate answered.

"Yes."

For some reason that simple answer made a shiver go down her spine, Seras didn't know why she felt this sudden fear but it was gone as fast as it came when her Soulmate asked another question.

"What is your name?"

Seras bit her lips and stared at her bedroom door, thinking that her parents would come in any moment, catching her in the act and scold her for disobeying them. She didn't see any harm on telling them her name, but she feared that there might be some heavy consequences following it. she then decided.

"If you tell me your name I will tell you mine."

If her Soulmate said their name then she will tell them her own to be fair, she didn't have to wait long.

"My name is Vlad but everyone calls me Alucard."

"Why?"

"It is a long story."

"Which name do you want me to call you?"

"Whichever you like."

"Then I will call you Vlad the other name is hard."

"What is your name?"

Seras thought it won't be fair if she knew their- No, His name while he didn't know hers.

"My name is Seras."

"Seras interesting name."

Her name was written in such a beautiful way that she couldn't help but imagine her name being called by an equally beautiful voice.

"You are the first to say that my name is interesting."

"Am I?"

"Yes, all the other kids say that my name is weird even adults."

And she didn't lie, Seras almost hated her name because everyone would tease her over it or end up calling her 'Sara' because 'Seras' was too complicated somehow. But not her Soulmate.

"Your name is different, unique and I think it suits you."

"How do you know? You never saw me."

Seras couldn't help her giggle, talking to Vlad made her stomach feel weird but it still was very…nice.

"Then I will say it to your face when we finally meet."

Her brows furrowed.

"Are you coming to England?"

"I am."

"You can't."

She quickly wrote, feeling slightly panicked at the idea of Vlad coming to England.

"And why not?"

Seras couldn't help but feel that he was angry while writing that. She took a deep breath and answered.

"Because Dad said I need to live like a kid and worry about love when I am older."

She waited for a little before wiping away what she wrote and started writing again.

"And I do want to do just that."

When her Soulmate didn't answer Seras thought that she might have hurt his feeling or made him angry with her, she was already thinking about ways to apologize when he finally answered.

"I will not come to England."

This made Seras sigh in relief. Then the writing was gone and another appeared.

"But when I do meet you, you will give all your attention to me."

Seras thought about it for a moment. When they do meet she will be older and would probably want to have a boyfriend by her side. so she agreed.

"I promise."

She added a little heart at the end to let him now that she was happy. Instead of responding to her small gesture he asked another question.

"What is your last name?"

"If you tell me yours then I will tell you mine?"

She giggled when she used the same little game of 'You tell me first'. Again Vlad took a while to answer but did in the end.

"I cannot tell you."

"Then I cannot tell you as well."

"You are such a tease."

"What does that mean?"

"It means that you like to provoke others for your enjoyment."

Seras took a moment to understand what he said before answering with a grin.

"Then yes I am."

From then Seras didn't know for how long they have been talking all she knew was she felt as if she was bounding with her long lost best friend. She never met Vlad nor, knew about him, but in this short time, they have been talking made Seras feel like she had known him better than anyone she had ever met in person. However, her fun came to an end when her mouth cracked open, yawning tiredly. She knew she had to go to sleep soon, it was school night after, but she still wanted to talk more. with regret heavy in her heart she wrote the next words.

"I am sorry Vlad it is really late here and I am tired."

"I understand you need to sleep."

"Can we still talk tomorrow again?"

"Of course."

He wrote immediately.

"Whenever you want to talk whether it was day or night I will be here for you."

Little Seras didn't help but blush and be happy with what he said, no boy in her class ever talked to her so sweetly they were always bully her for not acting like a girl, but not Vlad.

"Thank you, Goodnight."

She let go of the light blue pen and grabbed the red one and drew a big heart like the one her mother drew for her father.

"Goodnight."

And besides his words was a big black heart as big as the one she drew but his had small bat wings on them, which Seras didn't help but think of how cute it was. She wanted to write something back to him but she knew that if she did she will start another never-ending conversation between them that would go for hours. After cleaning her hand Seras went to her bed unable to stop smiling at the thought that out there, there was someone destined for her who cares for her deeply.

Alucard sat alone in his chamber, on his armchair, still staring at his forearm with a big grin on his face. Wondering if he should break his promise and just go to England to take his Soulmate back with him to Romania. He shook his head from such dark thought and just took a sip from his wine glass. He will respect his Soulmate's wishes of wanting to grow up like a normal child not wanting to worry about love, and he understood it. Alucard couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed that his Soulmate was still a child, not able to tease her even further by using dirty jokes and language but nevertheless he had a Soulmate. After all these centuries of being alone and thinking that he would be alone for the rest of his miserable undead life, his mate showed up.

"Just one more decade." He told himself, the rest of the night Alucard imagined how his Soulmate looked like, how they behave in person, what she was really like.

He decided that light blue was now his favorite color.
