Request: @-xo_frankie- : 'My request is soulmate AU. When your soulmate sings, listens or thinks of a song, you hear it too.
Any song you want 😀 oh, and it's for Mikey. xoxo'

Note: I made it so that you can only hear when your soulmate sings, not when they think of or listen to a song, but I hope you like it, my love. x

"Beauty queen of only 18, she

had some trouble with herself

He was always there to help her, she

always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles and wound up at your door

I've had you so many times but somehow I want more"

"She singing again?" Gerard asked, taking a seat opposite his brother, who was gazing absentmindedly out the window as he focused on listening to the sound in his head, a dreamy look on his face as he did so. Gerard knew that look. It was reserved for one person and one person only.

Mikey nodded, a smile on his lips. "She has the most beautiful voice..."

"What song?"

"She Will Be Loved."

"Again?" Gerard took a sip of soda, leaning back in the armchair. "Seems like that's all she ever sings."

"It's her favourite," Mikey smiled, still focusing on your melodic voice playing in his head.

"Does she ever listen to us?"

"Quite a bit, actually," Mikey answered, turning to grin at the older Way. "Her rendition of 'I Don't Love You' is a million times better than yours."

Gerard scoffed. "Mikey, I'm sure she could sing any song, sound like a dying cat and you'd still think she has the most beautiful voice you've ever heard."

"I love her."

"Well, maybe you should try and find her then!" Gerard huffed, tossing a judgmental look at Mikey. "Or, ya know, at least sing back to her."

"I can't do that," Mikey sighed.

"Why the hell not?"

"Because when I sing, I sound like a dying cat," he threw his hands up in frustration before running one of them through his hair. "I don't to make a bad first impression."

Gerard rolled his eyes at his brother's cowardliness, although he couldn't help but feel a little bit bad. Mikey was so hopelessly in love with you, and it seemed like every day, that love grew more and more; it must be torture for him to love someone so much and not be able to be with them.

"But I'll find her," Mikey continued. "I have to."

"They're gonna rip off your heads

Your aspirations to shreds

Another cog in the murder machine"

Mikey's brows furrowed into a frown as his fingers moved over his bass; he thought he was imagining it before, but there was no doubt about it now – the music he was playing sounded perfectly in time with your voice in his head.

No. It can't be. It's just a crazy coincidence, right?

"So darken your clothes

Or strike a violent pose

Maybe they'll leave you alone

But not me"

Mikey looked over at Gerard, focusing on the movement of his lips, and sure enough, they too were moving in perfect sync with your voice.

"Oh my God," Mikey swallowed; his mouth had suddenly gone dry, and his head began to spin while his heartbeat increased by the second. "She's here," he whispered to himself. "Gerard!" he called out to his brother, who turned to him with a worried expression, while continuing to sing. "She's here!"

Gerard looked confused for a moment, before Mikey's words fully penetrated his mind and his eyes widened in a mixture of excitement and shock.

"Maybe they'll leave you alone

But not me"

The song ended, and Mikey and Gerard shared a look that screamed 'oh shit she's here what do we do now'.

Gerard looked down at the microphone in his hand and his eyes lit up. Mikey caught on to what his brother was about to do and lunged forward, grabbing the piece of equipment out of Gerard's hand just as he brought it up to his mouth.

"What are you doing, you idiot?" Gerard scolded, once again widening his eyes at Mikey. "I was gonna find her for you!"

"No," Mikey breathed, looking out into the sea of people, "Not here. Not like this."

"Not like th- Mikey! This may very well be your only chance to find her! Take it."

"No," Mikey insisted, shaking his head. "She doesn't like attention. If we called her out, it would just ruin everything."

"And you know all of this by listening to her sing?"

"I've been listening to her all my life. I think I may have learnt a few things about what she likes and doesn't like."

Gerard looked out at the small crowd, who were thankfully being entertained by Ray and Frank, allowing the brothers to have their conversation. "Okay, fine. We won't call her out. But what are we gonna do?"

It was an incredible show; you sang your heart out, screamed your lungs out, and jumped around so much you were sure to have blisters on your feet tomorrow. You made a mental note to send a gift to your cousin as a 'thank you' for scoring you a ticket to tonight's show. You'd tried your hardest to get one yourself, but seeing as though it was an intimately small venue, and they were one of the biggest bands in the world, it sold out in no time. You were lucky enough to have a cousin who got hold of one for you through a friend, though, allowing you to experience the best night of your life so far.

You were just about to head for the exit, when someone happened that made you gasp aloud.

"I don't mind spending every day

Out on your corner in the pouring rain"

He was singing.

He was actually singing. He's never sung before; you were beginning to think that you didn't have a soulmate.

But you did.

And he was singing your favourite song.

His voice stopped after those two lines, and you stood motionless for a while, waiting for the singing to pick up again. When after a minute it didn't, you opened your mouth.

"Look for the girl with the broken smile"

Almost immediately after, he started again.

"Ask her if she wants to stay a while

And she will be loved"

His voice sounded closer this time around, and it was almost like you were hearing two of the same voice.

"And she will"

You felt a hand grip your shoulder, lightly turning you around.

"Be loved"

Gazing up, you scoffed in disbelief as Mikey Way beamed down at you.

"I found you."
