This was it, you could feel it in your bones! Oh my goodness were you excited, no, not just excited... ecstatic, exuberant, electrified, as many freaking synonyms for god damn thrilled you could think of and even the ones you couldn’t.

Every Christmas Eve, souls ready for matching would be paired with a innately colored ribbon to fin one another before the end of Christmas Day. Since you were a child, you waited (not-so) patiently for your turn. You had watched cousins, friends-even your siblings- find their matches, their mates. Oh, how desperately you prayed and wished for your turn.

And now, on this Christmas Eve, just before the clock struck 10, you were practically shaking in your boots as you imagined what it’d be like when you first see that little ribbon tie itself around your ring finger, silently attaching you to another life, another soul.

Your mother said she felt a shiver right before hers appeared, and you were anxiously awaiting for that feeling, the one that shoots through your whole body as your soul is pulled to another.

Pulling your hat snuggly over your ears, the snow falling softly around you as you tapped your foot on the balcony of your apartment, you couldn’t help but take a second to appreciate the moment. It was the perfect Christmas Eve, and not just because you knew in your heart that you’d find your soulmate soon. The day had gone by peacefully, all your gifts for the family wrapped and stored in your car to take over to your parents’ home in the morning. Having a deadline of midnight Christmas Day to find your soulmate was a daunting task, but one you had planned for every single Christmas, just in case. Everything fell perfectly into place and you couldn’t have asked for a better day.

So lost in thought, you almost missed the sound of the clock striking 10, but the jolt of electricity that ran up your spine was more than enough to pull you back to the pressing matter at hand. Just as you’d dreamed, you watched as a thin faint green ribbon tied itself in a neat little bow around your finger. You almost couldn’t feel it, but when you lifted your hand to tug it a bit, you felt the resistance from the other end. Looking out, you saw the line extend out into the night, leading you to your fate. Despite the long day, you couldn’t help the adrenaline coursing through your veins. You wanted more than anything to start searching for your soulmate right now, but you didn’t want to show up at an outrageous hour. Taking a few minutes to just admire your only wish coming true, you decide to slip your pajamas on and try to catch at least a few hours sleep.

You didn’t miss, however, the tug at the other end of the ribbon, almost like a silent hello or a promise to find each other. You fell asleep with the biggest smile resting on your face.

You woke up so early the next morning the sun hadn’t even risen yet. Pulling on your Christmas Day attire, along with a hat, mittens, and boots for the cold, you checked your watch to set a timer for just before midnight.

Tradition says that soulmates have until midnight Christmas Day to find their other half, before the ribbon vanishes and you have to wait until the next Christmas to try again. Most often, missing the deadline wasn’t that big of a deal, but there have been plenty of cases where things happen during that year in between that mess with the magic. Accidents, changes of heart, even death can cut the ribbon in two, separating the once paired souls. After all, it wasn’t a precise thing and humans are incredibly complex beings. Your worst nightmare was not making it in time, only to wait a whole year and not have the ribbon return the next Christmas Eve.

So, with great determination, you hopped in your car, starting off on your journey. First stop, your parents to drop off gifts. They knew how important this was, and you’d spared them no detail in the call last night before bed. Once that was done, you could spend the rest of the day following that cute little ribbon. The more you stared at it, the more detail you could pick out. The ribbon was quite dainty, a perfect shade of pine tree green, and you could even make out gold flecks that glimmered in the sun rays. It was beautiful.

The drive to your childhood home was quite the journey. When you’d stepped into the car this morning, you noticed your path followed the ribbon almost exactly. You couldn’t help the nerves building in your stomach as you ventured further, path identical to the ribbon, like it was leading your car. It was strange, to say the least. Was it possible your soulmate wasn’t that far? Would they live close to you? What if you knew them? The questions racing through your mind didn’t cease, especially when you entered your hometown, ribbon still guiding the way.

The closer you got to your home, the more the feeling grew. They were here, so close you could feel them.

As you rounded the corner of your street, your heart started racing. The lights on the houses, the snow falling perfectly, it was like you were a part of a Hallmark movie.

That’s when your childhood home came into view, and along with it, the end of your ribbon...right next door.

As your breath hitched, your foot immediately slammed on the brakes, not caring about the sudden stop in the middle of the road. You followed the ribbon with your eyes until it disappeared right through that big red door.

That big red door that you remember running through every day as a young child, following that mop of dark hair as you chased each other through your yards. The sound of his laugh floating through your ears, sending a laugh from yourself, even at the dumbest of things. Laying on his big couch in the den and watching Christmas movies until you both fell asleep in a pile of blankets. The late nights, the shared secrets, the entwined fingers.

Was it possible? Your childhood best friend, the person you shared everything with once, the boy you’d watched grow into a man and left behind one day in favor of the big city... could he be your soulmate?

You pulled yourself together enough to park your car in your old driveway, taking in deep breaths to steady your racing heart.

This is it, this is what you’ve been waiting for. In all honesty, you should’ve seen it coming. He was always there, your shoulder to cry on, hand to hold, ear to lend, secret keeper and everything in between. It’d been you who had been dumb enough to leave him behind, thinking it’d be easier to cut it off before you’d have a soulmate to deal with. How clueless had you been?

Approaching the familiar door slowly, like you were suddenly scared it’d eat you up, your brain ran through every worst case scenario you could think of. Maybe he resented you for leaving, maybe he didn’t like you that way, or maybe he’d even forgotten about you.

As you raised your fist to knock, the door swung open, revealing the person you’d been waiting your whole life for. Wonpil. He looked better than ever, taller and more mature than the last time you’d seen him. The sweater he adorned fit him just right, the color a perfect compliment to his skin. Not matter how much he aged, though, you still saw the little boy you stuck to like Velcro. You wondered if he still saw that little girl in you. The longer you stared, the more nervous you got, but his voice melted through all the worry, a soft look in his eyes as he gazed into yours. His hand reached out, finding yours, the identical bows brushing each other and slowly fading away.

“I always knew it’d be you.”

Of course! This is pretty long but I hope you like it, I had a lot of fun writing it~

Jae scenario: Enemies to lovers

You had known Jae since high school, and you hated eachother. When you found out that one of your best friends, Sungjin, was now in a band with your enemy, you were almost disappointed with him but annoyed more than anything. Sungjin didn’t want to force you to see Jae, but he did want you to get closer to the other members since you and them were his closest friends. Of course, Day6 wouldn’t just exclude Jae whenever you were hanging out with them, so you had to see him more than you’d like. Day6 weren’t very big, but they had managed to book a gig at a venue much bigger than the ones they usually played at. You were really proud and happy for the boys, well, most of them, and when Sungjin asked you to come you were excited as hell. The show was amazing, even Jae, although you didn’t like him, you couldn’t deny his talent. Afterwards you were allowed to go backstage to see them. The boys were super happy to see you, lately you’d been becoming pretty good friends with them. Even Jae was happy to see you, surprisingly.

“Hey kid.” Jae approached you.

“Um I came to see the others.”

“What’s your problem?”, he acted as if he didn’t know.

“You.”

You walked past him to the others, he sighed and followed. Sungjin grabbed your arm and asked if you could talk.

“I don’t think you’ve ever told me why you two don’t get along.”

“That’s exactly why, we just, don’t get along. But I’ll tell you why if you really want, it’s a long time coming. I remember the first year of high school, he sat next to me in almost every class, not by choice, I think the teachers just hated me and subconsciously knew that me and Jae didn’t like eachother. He was a class clown, always had witty answers especially for teachers, but other students too. I admit he could be funny, but most of the time he was just plain annoying. We got to know eachother pretty well from sitting together so much, I just ended up disliking him more and more. We ended up arguing quite a lot and getting sent out of class.”

“So that’s it? A high school feud? You’ve held that grudge for this long?”

“Well kinda, but there’s more. I didn’t actually hate him to begin with. I actually.. thought he was kinda cute. I told one of my friends and I think they told someone and it just ended up spreading that I liked him. Eventually Jae found out, and he would always pick on me and stuff. That’s when I actually started to hate him. He kept picking on me all throughout high school after that.”

“Damn. Well, he’s changed. I saw him trying to talk to you, maybe he wants to make up for it?”

“I don’t know to be honest Sungjin.”

The boys were going to a restaurant after, and Sungjin asked you to tag along. You sat down, reading the menu. You looked up for a second and saw Jae, who was sitting across from you, staring at you.

“Uh, you okay there Jae?”

“Yup I’m great, are you?”

“I’ll be better when you look at your menu instead of me.”

“Don’t act like you don’t love my dreamy face looking into your eyes.”

“Nice joke, chicken little.”

“Lighten up Y/N”

“I’ll lighten up when you read your fucking menu and shut up.”

The waitress came over to your table to take your orders. Jae ordered lobster, what a surprise, you remembered him always talking about lobster in high school. He even had a little song about it. You giggled to yourself, thinking about how he would sing the song quietly while you were working, he was actually very good at singing and- wait, were you just thinking about a nice memory about Jae? No, you couldn’t be.

“Something funny?” Jae looked back up at you.

“Yeah, you.”

“Oof should I take that as a compliment or an insult?”

“How did I even get here?” You questioned under your breath and sighed to yourself.

“By cab.” Jae joked.

“Wow very funny. Seriously though, I thought I’d be free from you after high school, yet here I am.”

“You should be glad.” Jae laughed. “We always had fun in school, now we still get to.”

You glared at him, and raised your voice slightly “Fun?! You think it was fun?!” You calmed yourself, “Let’s take this outside.”

Jae followed you out of the restaurant. “So where were we?”

“You seriously think that any of it was fun for me?! You made my life hell! You think I enjoyed being called names, being tripped up in the corridor by your friends and dropping all of my books, just because of a stupid five minute crush?”

“We were just kids.” Jae defended.

“So what?”

“So what do kids do when they have a crush? Isn’t there that whole thing about picking on your crush or something? I don’t know I’m not saying it was okay but I just mean that I was young and didn’t know what I was doing-”

“Wait what are you saying?”

Jae ignored you and continued, “and don’t act like you didn’t do it too! Calling me chicken little all the damn time and laughing at me whenever I answered the teacher in class.”

“I laughed because I thought you were funny.”

“You know what else is funny?” Jae stepped closer to you, “It’s the fact that you didn’t see it. Any of it. You didn’t see me blush or smile whenever you talked to me, even if it was to laugh at me or call me a chicken. You didn’t see me hit my friends after they tripped you up. You didn’t see-”

“Jae please just answer my question.” You started up at him, feeling guilty now.

“Oh right haha… I guess I’m saying that I liked you too.”

You started to tear up, thinking about all the things that you missed from school, asking yourself why you had to hold this silly grudge for so long. Jae put his hand on your face and wiped away the tears.

“You okay kid?” For once in your life, you saw how genuinely concerned he was about you.

“I’m- I’m fine. I’m sorry for the way I’ve treated you.”

“Me too Y/N.” He lent down to place a small kiss on your lips. During that moment, all of the good memories that you had forgotten about started to fill your mind. You fell harder for him, erasing all of the bad memories.

“I’m glad we finally made up Y/N, I love you. I always have.”

“Me too and.. I love you too Jae.”
