Tied by Fate | Alab x Jamila

[REQUESTED]

I thought somebody requested Alab x Jamila earlier, but I can't seem to find who requested it, so if you were the one to request this, please let me know, sorry!

I still hope you enjoy this though! Apologies if it sounds weird or if I use the wrong pronouns for Alab, I keep forgetting that they are non-binary...

"I AM FARTING ALL THE WAY TO TOKYO" - Jamila, 2020

[JAMILA]

There's this old tale about soulmates that if you haven't bonded or met by both of your sixteenth birthdays, you will inhabit their life and be stuck in your soulmate's body until the two of you meet and bond. It sounds very silly in my opinion, but it's fate.

Most soulmates get together before their sixteenth birthday, so that usually doesn't happen. You know when you meet your soulmate, you'll know that it feels right.

It's almost my next birthday coming up in a week, which I, myself, am excited about, but also nervous due to the fact that I haven't found my mate. My sister turned sixteen a few months ago, and she already found her soulmate before then. I'm a bit jealous, but I'll find mine one day.

I get ready for the big day to come, and keep a lookout for them.

[TIMESKIP TO A WEEK]

"Happy Birthday, Jamila!" my family calls happily to which I smile brightly. The day has finally come, and at least I'll be able to enjoy it. I blow the candles' flame and hear the cheers of my friends and family.

My sister Marley pulls me to the garden with a smile. I follow eagerly, as my parents told me to enjoy myself for as long as possible today. We took time to play together like when we were young, it was much fun. I felt sad when it was all over.

It turned to evening quickly, and we headed to bed, my vision fading to black.

[TIMESKIP]

The next morning, I woke up in a creamy, white room, opposed to my light-pastel pink colored room.

How did I even get in here? I ask myself as I stood up. I felt a bit dizzy and a tiny bit sick to the stomach.

That's when I noticed my hand. It wasn't dark, instead, was a light tan color, covered by a milky-yellow long-sleeved sweater.

Gah! I jump back as I realized what had happened. Of course it had to happen. I switched bodies with my soulmate. But who are they? And do I know them?

I spot a mirror and stood in front of it to get a closer look. I had swept, brown hair and light skin, wore a sweater with the words "I ♥ you" written on the front, and black jeans. Personally, I didn't look too bad, it actually was a cute get-up.

I look around the room, hoping to get a better understanding of my soulmate. I caught my eye on this board with a picture of a dark-skinned boy and black hair with pink tints, the picture had a large red cross over it. Did they hate that person or something? I wasn't too sure, but I didn't want to be caught in someone else's business.
