Chapter Three: Mine Forever


7 years later


"What do you mean we have to move!"

"We talked about this Daniel. This move is gonna benefit both of us with my new job and a fresh start for you." Lucille LaRusso said despite she knew it wasn't true. She wasn't moving for a new job. Her boss decicded that he no longer needed her, along with about six of her other co-workers. She heard some good jobs were opened down in Los Angeles, California and she needed to hop on them quick before someone else did. She had to think about Daniel and she couldn't handle her baby struggling when she can try to improve it.

"I don't want a fresh start! I want to stay here with my friends! Why do we have to move right in the middle of the year!" Daniel shouted as he ran towards his room slamming his door shut ignoring his mom's protest. Throwing himself on the bed Daniel fought back the urge to cry. He had a good life here, no one judged him for not having the latest stuff. Everyone here accepted him for him and now he had to leave behind everyone he knew and cared for.

Daniel? Daniel what's wrong? Over the years, Daniel and Johnny grew a sixth sense about each other. Ever without the other saying anything they felt each other discomfort, sadness, and anger as if it was their own.

Leave me alone Johnny. Daniel whispered in the back of his mind. He wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone especially not Johnny with the perfect life. Over the years Daniel and Johnny grew close sharing everything they knew about each other. While Daniel stayed in a one room house, Johnny had a five bedroom house just because they could.

Daniel talk to me.

I hate it when your quiet. Johnny said after an few minutes.

Your never quiet Danny. Johnny whispered into Daniel's mind. His voice seemed worried as he waited in his own room for his soulmate to respond back. Sighing Johnny laid back onto his Queen size bed staring up at the ceilings thinking of ways to get Daniel to talk. Daniel just talk to me. Johnny paused knowing he shouldn't.

Leave me alone Johnny! Daniel snapped back. He didn't want Johnny's pity or anyone else for that matter.

Hey! Don't bite my head off Daniel! An no I'm not pitying you! I just want to know what's making my own soulmate act like an ass to me, when I did nothing wrong! Johnny snapped back.

Everything grew quiet until Johnny seemed to go farther back into Daniel's mind catching pieces and bits of his argument with his mother this morning. In snapped into place for Johnny as his who body softened and his anger disappeared as quickly as it came. Daniel I didn't know-

Stay out of my head! Daniel roared as he shot upwards in his bed. His head was dizzy from sitting up to quickly but he didn't care. He was too pissed at Johnny for going back into his personal thoughts which he had to right to do.

I'm sorry I didn't know! I just wanted to see- Johnny rushed to explain.

How could you! We had an agreement! God I hate being your soulmate! Your always in my damn business which is none of your concern. Don't you have your own life! Stop inferring with mine! Daniel snapped immediately regretting it but he stay quiet. He could feel Johnny's confusion before it turned into a bubbling hot rage. He knew the boy's temper would not take to kindly to his own.

What the is your problem Daniel? I'm just trying to comfort you. Johnny said back.

Daniel noted how careful Johnny talked, he was trying to control his temper. He didn't want to risk blowing up on Daniel even if he was on the end of the boy's undeserved anger. Daniel knew he should be grateful that Johnny was trying to check his temper in check.

Maybe I don't want you fucking comfort! Your just so annoying always trying to get into my business. Just leave me alone. Forever. Daniel snapped but he didn't truly mean it. He was just mad so he took it in the nearest person, which sadly was Johnny. His Johnny. His soulmate who has done nothing but give his courage, friendship, and love thought the years since their first initial talk.

Johnny didn't respond for a minute before Daniel could feel his heart crumbling by his words.

Joh-

No save it. I don't even know why I expected more from a welfare child anyone. I'm done with you.


Lucille knew the minute she heard Daniel scream nothing would ever be the same again. Rushing towards the bedroom, Lucille felt her heart break. Daniel was laying on the floor in the ball tears running down his face as he sobbed loudly. Dropping to gather her son in her arms, Lucille brushed the falseness hair from Daniel's face.

"Daniel talk to me baby, talk to me."

"Joh-hnny gone. He's go-one." Daniel cried out as he felt half of his heart break. He couldn't explain it but his heart felt like it was ripped from his chest. He no longer felt the constant present of Johnny in his head. He lost his soulmate all because of an stupid argument.

"Baby what happened to Johnny?" Lucille asked but her heard clenched telling her, she knew what really happened. She just prayed that it wasn't true. She suffered over an lost soulmate before and the pain was worst than anything else you can ever face.

"He broke the connect. He suppose to be mine forever and he left me."
