I slowly woke up to my alarm and looked around. That's weird, I thought I feel asleep in Remy's room. I threw my legs over the edge of my bed and started trying to rub the sleep out of my eyes.

Wait-

Remy didn't wake me up. What kinda witchfuckery is this. I stood up and walked out of my room and down the hall to my brothers room. I knocked on the door before opening it a bit. Remy was still lying on his bed but he was awake. I walked over to him and sat down on the edge of the bed. We didn't say anything for awhile before he broke the silence.

"I'm sorry for worrying you Virge. Just..." He trailed off and I fixed my gaze to be looking at him.

"It's fine Rem. You sure you wanna go to school today though?" he sighed and moved so he was sitting up.

"Yea, I'll be fine" I nodded a bit before standing up and walking back towards the door.

"Love ya Rem"

"I love me too babes" I laughed and walked back to my room.

{time skip}

I handed a poptart to Remy as he got in the car. He thanked me and we let whoever was driving this time, Max I think, drive us to school. We got out of the car and I attempted to talk to Remy.

"You sure you wanna do this? I can always call father to let you stay home"

"I'll be fine Virge, dont be so worried. It was just some memories that got to me. Besides, I'm Remy Vanta, I'm basically a god."

"Uh huh. So 'god' what're you gonna do to prove your godship over us?" He smirked as we walked through the gates of the school and put his hands up.

"Begone peasants! And bow before me! I am a god!" Everyone looked over at us like he was crazy but quickly cleared a small are after seeing who we were. Having a crime boss dad is good for something. "Does this prove I'm a god?" he smirked.

"No but it does prove that people are afraid of us killing them." He chuckled and looked behind me.

"Hey Virge ain't that your soulmate?" He pointed and I turned around. Ugh this guy again.

"H-" nope. Not dealing with this.

"No. I don't know you. I don't like you. Leave me alone or I will kill you." And with that I walked towards the front doors of the school. I looked back to see my brother talking to him and someone else. I know my brother. I know that he said something about the incident. I know he knows I don't like soulmates because of that reason. And I know I should stop saying 'I know' before it gets old and all of you just decide to skip this.

He started walking towards me with a faltering smile. I looked at him before we walked into the school not saying a word.

{time skip cause I'm fuckin lazy}

I walked down the halls while some kids looked at me. It could be the fact of who my father was or the thing that happened on Monday. Either way I don't care. They all need to mind their damn business and not stare at me.

"Hey!" someone called. They probably weren't talking to me so I continued walking.

"Virgil!" I lifted my head and looked around. A boy ran up to me. He looked about my age but way too cheery to be in high school. "Hi"

"Uhhh hi?" I looked at this kid again just to make sure this guy was actually talking to me. "Escuse me, who are you?"

"Thomas. Thomas Sanders. I was wondering if you would like to join me and my friends for lunch? You don't have to but it would be cool if you did." He smiled and I started  walking beside me to my next class.

"Who are your friends and why do you want me to sit with you? Protection? Money? What?"

"No no no. I don't want anything. See, my friend is your soulmate and-"

"Wait, you're friends with that guy? Ugh." I mumbled and stopped at the door of the classroom.

"What was that?"

"Nothing. Just...I gotta get in class" I turned around before he could push the topic and walked into the boring history class.

{time skip again, last one I swear}

Remy somehow talked me into going over to their table and now I'm scared and I don't know why. This better not be because of that stupid soulmate thing. Why does life hate me? First I have to go to an actual school with people, second I have to go to some stupid soulmate class that I dont pay attention in, third I find my soulmate, and fourth that soulmate is some dude that is obviously some disney prince.

Anyways, we were walking up to the same table they were sitting at when that happened. And something weird was going on. Two of them were almost standing on the table shouting at eachother while the other two looked like this was something that happened often. "What's going on here?" I asked. Everyone immediately looked at us. Shit. Mental breakdown time.

"Well, well, well if it isn't Virgil Vanta the famous bastard." One of the people that came up to me this morning said. I was about to point out that he saw me earlier but...was that a Potter Musical reference I heard?

"Let me guess, you wanna go to pigfarts but can't cause it's on Mars?"

"I like him!" he turned around and started clapping. What the hell is with this guy? I ignored it and turned to the person that told me I needed to interact with other life forms.

"Why did we do this?"

"Because he's your soulmate and I don't want you to end up like me." He simply stated.

"I don't need a soulmate. Mom's soulmate died before she met them, father never had one, and you grew up half your life without one" The words came out of my mouth before I could stop myself and after they did I realized, I fucked up. He stayed silent for a bit before taking off his sunglasses to reveal that he was on the verge of tears.

"Mom and father may have not had their soulmates but that does not mean we can't. And I may have lost Isaac but I still loved him and I miss him every damn day. So I don't care if you feel like you don't want one but you need him. I won't stand and watch my brother give up the biggest part of his life just because I'm a sad sack of shit." A tear rolled down his face and he immediately wiped it away.

"I-I'm sorry Rem....I didn't mean to bring him up."

"It's fine...." He slid his sunglasses back on and adjusted his jacket a bit.

"It's not fine. I brought up bad memories and I feel bad" Remy sighed and shook his head. I wish I knew what was going on in his head.

{Remy's POV}

I'm really fucking depressed. And I ran out of coffee.

{Back to Virgil's POV}

He didn't say anything so I groaned and started walking away. I don't really know where I was going. I just know that it's away from people. I ended up sitting under a tree somewhere. Remy stayed behind with the other human life but I'm too depressed to care.

I pulled out my phone and quickly typed in the password. I started humming something while I scrolled through some pictures. I quickly clicked on one and looked at it, still humming the unknown song.

The picture is of four people. One was wearing a black button-up with an undone lilac tie. He was smiling while leaning in so he could fit in the frame. His brown hair was a but of a mess but not as messy as the boys hair in front of him. His purple eyes actually showed happiness, unlike now. The boy he was holding had a black shirt on with white words spelling out 'Bedtime is Not Real'. His hair was a bit messy but that was because he had just woken up from a nap. He, unlike the man, had silver eyes. He looked about eight years old in this picture and he looked as happy as any child that had an amazing home with an amazing family. There was one more boy in this picture. His dark brown hair was carefully combed away from his face to show the eyes that were called beautiful so many times even if he never believed it. He wore a purple sweater and had the brightest smile of them all. The woman that was holding him had beautiful black hair that was pulled back in a braid. Her silver eyes reflected against whatever light was showing. She was wearing a lilac dress and a beautiful silver necklace. Her smile was by far the most beautiful between the four of them.

A tear fell on my screen and I quickly wiped my face.

"What're ya humming?" I looked up and saw Remy looking down at me with a sad smile. He slowly crouched down like I had done so many times before and looked at the screen. He sat down beside me and pulled me into a side hug.

{lol I lied. This is definitely the last one though}

"Hey do you think we could buy a human? Not as a slave or anything, just someone to hang out with?"

"Oh yea, father says he's getting us a bodyguard or some shit for school." I said without looking up from my phone.

"wait what? Why didn't the readers fucking tell me?"

"What?"

"Nothing"
