I'm a terrible human being! So sorry for keeping you waiting so long for an update...Work has been crazy after the holiday *sigh* but I am back and here is an update! Thanks for the wonderful comments on the last chapter! :)

I own nothing but the plot and the OCs


"I can't believe I missed it!" Ragnor exclaimed.

Catarina and Magnus had came back home…or Catarina had dragged Magnus away from Alec so they could get home. As happy as she was for them to be reunited, Catarina was tired after a whole day of working and needed to take a shower and just sleep. So after a long goodbye between Alec and Magnus where they promised to text each other as soon as they reached home and to get together the next day for breakfast, Catarina was able to get home.

Of course, as soon as they had arrived at Magnus's place, Ragnor had already been there. He had instantly noticed the change in Magnus, for some reason he was smiling even more than he had ever smiled. Knowing something had happened while he was gone, Ragnor had started to ask questions. Catarina retold the story, letting his own soulmate how their friend had found his other half.

"They were so sweet" Catarina gushed "So sweet you would have gotten a tooth-ache"

"We were not that bad" Magnus frowned "Plus…we weren't in the same rooms you for most of the part"

"Oh?" Ragnor asked, smirking "And where were you then?"

"Magnus dragged Alec to the back room" Catarina laughed.

"You move fast!" Ragnor raised his eyebrows in surprise "You do dog! Way to go!"

"Stop!" Magnus groaned, covering his eyes with his hands. "It wasn't like that"

"Uh huh" Catarina smirked.

"We just talked" Magnus snapped. "Because unlike you, we would like to keep this slow!"

"Oh please" Ragnor rolled his eyes "You can't be slower than us….we took a year to get together!"

"True" Catarina nodded "You lose the fight there, Mags"

"Whatever" Magnus murmured.

He moved to the living room and lay down on the sofa, turning on the TV. Catarina giggled and excused herself to take a shower. She had half of her things at their flat anyways. After Cat had walked out, Ragnor moved towards the living room to watch TV with his best friend. He noticed Magnus was not really looking at the screen. His eyes were glazed, as if he was looking at something that was so far away. Ragnor waited for a moment before he started talking to him.

"How are you feeling?" Ragnor asked him.

"What do you mean?" Magnus asked. His head moved towards his best friend, and his eyes finally focused on the room.

"With the whole thing" Ragnor explained "I know for a fact finding your soulmate can be overwhelming"

"It is" Magnus nodded and looked down to play with a pillow from the sofa "Can….Can I ask you something?"

"You just did" Ragnor smirked.

"Dork" Magnus threw the pillow at Ragnor when he started laughing, but then turned serious again. "How…how was it with Cat?"

"What do you mean?" Ragnor asked him.

"When you found each other" Magnus explained "How was it?"

Ragnor took a deep breath and looked away. His eyes focused on a point above the TV as he remembered the day he had met his soulmate. It had been sophomore year at high school. Ragnor and Magnus had always shared classes, their lockers were right next to each other, and they did everything together. Both had been considered outcasts back then. Magnus had came out early the year before, and no one at school wanted to be near the ´gay kid´. Of course, Ragnor was not about to abandon his best friend, so he stayed by his side. That meant that people tried to avoid Ragnor as well. It was all good for them, they didn't need those people. They had each other, just like they had have for so long, and they were content with it.

So on sophomore year, Magnus and Ragnor had just gotten their things from their lockers and were making their way towards their first class of the day. They were halfway there when a girl with silver-blond hair had knocked against Ragnor, making the books she had in her arms fall to the floor. Both boys had instantly moved to help the girl pick her stuff. When they stood up, Ragnor and had locked eyes and they just knew.

"It was…like I had found something I didn't know I was looking for" Ragnor started. "When I looked at her eyes, it just seemed as if I had no more air in lungs and I just…I just knew. She was the one. It didn't matter that I didn't know her name, or that she ran away soon after. I just knew it would be her and I would not be able to get her out of my mind until I got her name. And then she shared the same science class as me and I went to be her partner, leaving you on the other side of the classroom because I needed to be close. I wanted to meet her, get to know her. There was just something…something drawing me to her. You know…like an ache you could not get rid off until I was just next to her."

"How did you survived a year…after knowing she was your soulmate?" Magnus asked softly.

"I almost didn't" Ragnor chuckled "It was hard….God was it hard. All I wanted was to wrap my arms around her and kiss her…but she wouldn't let me"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself" Magnus confessed "God Ragnor if you had seen him. He's gorgeous! He's pure perfection! With those stunning blue eyes that you can practically see the ocean in. And his beautiful voice, so deep and husky yet sweet and charming…and that hair! Ragnor, he has black hair! Black and blue, how can he be the pure definition of perfection?! And then…Ragnor he blushes! Like honest to God, blush that would make a virgin jealous!"

"You're so whipped" Ragnor chuckled and Magnus threw a pillow at him.

Ragnor burst out laughing as Magnus continued to protest. He could not deny, it had been a long time ago since he had seen his best friend this happy. Ragnor could remember that little Indonesian boy who used to hide under a tree by the park of their neighborhood. The boy who had once been so scared of everything around him and who had grown into the confident man Magnus was now…Ragnor was glad to see how much Magnus had accomplished.

"What are you scared of?" Ragnor asked softly. He knew his best friend like no one else knew him. He knew when something was scaring Magnus.

"I…I guess I'm afraid it won't work out" Magnus sighed after a long moment of silence. "I'm afraid that after waiting so many years it won't be what I expected…"

"Are you afraid he won't be what you expected?" Ragnor asked with a frown.

"More like he will realize I'm not worth it" Magnus shrugged.

"That's bullshit" Ragnor said angrily. "Magnus, where do you get this ideas?"

"Ragnor, in my life you and Catarina are the only couple of soulmates who I've seen have worked out perfectly" Magnus stated "You knew my parents, they were the biggest screw up to exist and they screwed me up in the process…And then camille, and then Woolsey and then…"

"Okay, I'll stop you there" Ragnor snapped. "I know what you've gone through, and I know it has not been easy or pretty…but you can't let that hold you back. This is your soulmate we're talking about, and if you're both willing to try I'm sure you can make it work. You deserve this Magnus, you deserve to be happy"

"Thank you Ragnor" Magnus murmured after contemplating what his best friend had just said.

"And you know…if the kid messes up, I can beat him up" Ragnor grinned.
