Another Reality
Pairing: Oliver/Fred
Oliver stared at the name written in red ink on his arm. He held the tears back. It wouldn't do any good for him to cry.
Slow footsteps sounded behind him. "Are you okay?" George asked quietly.
"My soulmate's dead. What kind of question is that?"
"Your soulmate, my twin brother. Don't lash out at me."
Oliver stood up, his fingers still tracing the red ink. "Just leave me alone," he demanded as he stomped off.
The next morning, Oliver woke up, dried tear streaks on his cheeks.
"Bad dream?" an oh-so-familiar voice asked.
Oliver gasped and sat up, looking into worried, blue eyes. "Fred!? You're dead!"
"Really? Because I feel very much alive. But this might be able to explain it to you." Fred produced a piece of parchment. "I tried reading it, but it's spelled for your eyes only."
Oliver quickly took it.
"Oliver,
I found an untested spell for dimension travel. If there is a Fred in all of the realities that had an Oliver that died, the spell would bring the two of you together. If I don't see you again, I'm going to assume it worked.
Be happy.
George
Oliver smiled. "This definitely explains it."
Fred leaned against Oliver's shoulder. "So, is everything okay?"
Oliver pressed a kiss to Fred's shoulder. "More than okay."
