soulmates. probably one of the hardest things to find on this planet. i turn 18 today. it's almost the big day. my soulmark finally appears today.

though i will say, im nervous.

im pretty much gay, the only one that knows that is my best friend, karl.

me and karl met in kindergarten, we just relate a lot. we both get bullied, we both are in the 'nerdy' side of our school, and just pretty much everything else. we both play minecraft, we both have a sister, who are actually in the same grade.

we both are going to be 18.

soulmates are so important. they are your partner, for the rest of your life. i just hope it's a guy, and also not a jock. because they eather bully me, or they are homophobic.

"GEORGE!" 

"HUH?! oh sorry karl," i say.

"yea, you just zoned out," karl says, leaning against the kitchen counter.

"georgies, karl!" my sister, lizzie exclaims.

"what liz?" i question.

"we are going to dristas," karls sister, fae says.

"and who exactly said y'all can go?" karl asks.

"umm..us?" fae says.

"okay whatever, who's going to be there?" i butt in.

"umm well me, fae, drista, and kenny." lizzie says.

"they actually have brothers in your grade." fae smiles.

"they are so confused dream and sap are literally our best friends." karl whispers to me and i nod in agreement.

"what's their names?" i question jokingly.

"dream, and sapnap." they both say in unison.

they burst out laughing, and with that they are out the door.

"hmm never heard of them." karl says sarcastically.

we laugh.

there's a long pause.

"how you feeling birthday boy?" karl says.

i look at the clock.

11:42 PM

"nervous, i guess." 

"george, i promise it's not as scary as it seems, the mark just appears and then it all goes up from there." karl says.

"okay.."

ding!

"ooh cookies are ready!" karl smiles.

"yay!"

"here take a cookie." karl says.

i take a cookie, and karl does to.

"a toast to george davidson, my best friend who is turning 18 today, and who was born at 11:59 on the fucking dot!" karl raises his cookie up, and bops it with mine.

i giggle.

"thank you karl, you are literally the best friend i could ever have." i smile.

"so, mood check?" karl questions.

"still, nervous but excited." i say.

"mhm, thought so!" karl says.

"can i see your mark again?" i ask.

"sure, why not."

karl rolls up his left sleeve, revealing a mark that is shaped like fire. or at least it looks like it.

"have you found them yet?" i question.

"sadly, nope. but ill find them eventually, i just know it." karl smiles, taking a bite out of his cookie.

karl rolls down his sleeve, and goes to the fridge for a glass of milk.

"i still cant wrap my head around the fact that you were born at 11:59," karl says.

"yup, guess im just unique!" i respond jokingly.

"hey! im just AS unique as you are. if not, even more." karl crosses his arms.

"okay okay okay, fine. we are both unique." i smile.

11:48 PM

"can you grab a glass of milk for me too?" i ask karl.

"mhm, and then can we go to your room? it's sooo cold down here." karl complains

"sure," i reply.

i grab the plate of cookies me and karl baked, and we head upstairs.

"wanna scroll through twitter? see if there's any drama?" karl asks.

"sure," i say.

"ooh what's this? two big content creators kiss" karl reads.

"hmm interesting, oh and it says another was jealous!" i say.

(get the reference lmao)

we both stare at each other for one minute, and both roll onto my bed laughing.

"okay okay, it's 11:55 so we have 4 minutes left." karl says.

"wow! you big on math?" i ask.

"george, we have known each other since we were little and we both know that i get like fucking F's in math," karl giggles.

"okay yes, that's true," i say.

"OH FUCK 11:57! cmon georgie! get ready!" karl screams.

"calm down, karl." i chuckle.

"NO NO NO NO NO! now it's 11:58! yayyyy!" karl says.

"happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you! happy birthday dear georgeeeeee happy birthday to you!" karl says, clapping.

i take a bite out of my cookie.

just then the clock changes.

11:59 PM

here we go.
