Soulmates

"Nap"

Today was Inkigayo, we were performing as well as nominated for a few awards. We all had to get up early so that we could do a stage rehearsal and then get ready.

I dressed in a plain outfit, just some shorts and a hoodie to stay cozy and still be able to dance.

However the loose hoodie made it hard for me to see the messages from my soulmate. I had to keep taking my arm out of my sleeve because the sleeve was too big to just roll up. My unnies kept making fun of me because I was so desperate.

Their partners all know not to write during show days because you never know when there would be cameras around. I was still trying to figure out how to bring up the subject with mine. How could I ask him to not write without telling him why? I was stressed to the max.

We arrived to the rehearsal area and I shoved my arm back in my sleeve, hoping that he wouldnt try to write somewhere noticeable. Where he normally wrote was covered, but a few times when we were goofing around he would draw on my face. One time he gave me a mustache and I couldn't get it to go away.

We head to our dressing room to warm up and stretch before run through.

We had a little trouble at the beginning, but we just laughed it off and the rest was fine.

Before we have much time to think about it we are whisked away back to our dorms to have about two hours of rest before we start getting ready for the show.

I want to take a nap but I also want to talk to my soulmate since I wont be able to tonight. I also need to figure out how to get him to not write.

We talk about whatever comes to our minds, I rest my eyes while I wait for his responses and try not to fall asleep. He says that he has a busy day today as well and he should also be napping. I think that's funny, since it's a really weird time for a nap yet here we both are. I also feel honored that he would skip a nap to talk to me.

I try to decide how to bring up the writing thing and come up blank. It really sucks that I can't tell him who I really am. Maybe I can say I'm a performer, and not have to explain any more? I decide to try that and do my best to subtly steer the conversation that way.

"What do you do for a living?"

This way we could get onto the job situation, and it was a question I was wondering already.

He's taking a pretty long time to answer, I might fall asleep if he doesn't write back soon.

"I'm a performer" he finally responds

Really? A performer? What kind of answer is that? Omg is he a stripper? Why did it take him that long to answer if he wasn't hiding something?

"What about you"

Oh yeah. That was my answer. Shoot. Is he gonna be weirded out if I say the same thing? What if he thinks I'm a stripper? Ahhh you ruined my plan Mr.Soulmate.

"Wow really? Me too!!"

I try to sound normal, I really am excited that we have this in common. However we could mean very different things.

"That's so cool! I actually have a performance tonight, I'm going to be fully covered but just a heads up. Please don't draw a unibrow on me again ;)"

He has a performance tonight? Inkigayo is tonight, everyone knows that. What if he's performing at it? Is he an idol? Why else would it matter? Ugh I'm over thinking.

"Hey!! That was only payback for the mustache, Mr.Soulmate. And I do too actually, but I don't get the luxury of being fully covered. But the same goes here no face drawings! And no leg either, but I feel like you'd look pretty stupid drawing anything untasteful on your leg in the middle of a performance ;)"

I remove the pen from my arm and see the whole thing covered in writing. Well I hope he's not wearing long sleeves.

"I could draw something untasteful on your face for calling me stupid, but I won't because I'm a good person. Also I noted that you only specified untasteful writings so I agree. But no promises I won't give you a good luck or something, like a supportive 'Mr.Soulmate' although I'd much prefer if you called me Hobi"

A cute message from my soulmate, and a nickname. This is a surprisingly good nap. Hobi is an adorable nickname. I can't wait to meet him.

"Okay Hobi, I'll keep that in mind. I don't have any nicknames, except giggles which is not a name. But you can call me Daisy if you want, that's my stage name."

Crap. What if he's a fan? What if he recognizes it? Shoot shoot shoot. Ahhhhh. I am the worst. What if i blew my cover.

"Okay Daisy I'll keep that in mind, although I much prefer giggles ;)"

I smile at his response, he didn't seem to recognize it and he called me giggles. I felt all warm inside until my alarm went off, telling me that it was time to get ready.

"I have to go start getting ready Hobi, I'll talk later :)"
