"It's weird. Sometimes she just crosses my mind. Like on my way home while I'm on the train or during class, sometimes while I'm doing homework and sometimes while I'm talking with someone. After she crosses my mind I can't stop thinking about her for a while . I wonder where she is now, who she is with, if she is happy or if she has someone special. If there is some guy out there that gets to fall asleep next to her and get her good morning kisses."

"But why?"

I looked him in the eye.

"I wish I knew."

We sat quiet for a moment then he spoke up.

"Maybe you guys are soulmates? That would explain things, wouldn't it?"

"I guess but we can't be, we don't even know each other." I chuckle

"Yet you both fell in love with each other." he says smiling.

"She never loved me, she liked me yes. But she never loved me, she didn't even know that I loved her."

"Oh you both are idiots. It was painfully obvious to us all, the way you two would look at each other, the stolen glaces. The silent "I love yous" you two were like two sides of a coin. Both madly in love but unable to see it. Every day I would see the way she would look at you when you were talking with someone else and the way you would smile when she was laughing with her friends. And those small glints in your eyes everytime you caught her looking at you. That small blush that would appear on both of you. How you would stiffen and change your posture when she came near, how you would slow down and how she would speed up when walking next to each other.And everyday I would hear you complain and praise her, her brevery , her shyness and her small smile when she would scribble something down in her little notebook. You told me everything and I saw everything. Don't give me that shit, you two are oblivious to each other. Soulmates or not. You two belong together."

I just stared at him, how did he remember everything I saw and said about her. How did he notice all those small things?

"It doesn't matter though. It's not like I'll ever see her again.'' I sigh

"Don't say that, I will make you guys meet again even if I have to battle the gods."

"Why Lucas, why do you care so much?"

"Because she made you the happiest i've ever seen you. She made you smile at just the mention of her name, one look and you both were gone. You made me see love in its purest form. No kisses, no physical touch yet both of you were in love. You didn't need to know her, you already did. Maybe not her favorite color but you knew her soul which is a lot more important."

I chuckle

"This really matters to you huh?" I ask

"Yes I wasted many precious hours listening to you, I won't let that go to waste either."

We both laugh

"See you guys are soulmates just get together."

I smile at him, but it's a wavering smile. Like a ripple in the ocean small and noticeable at first then as it grows bigger it starts to slowly disappear.

"It doesn't matter if we're soulmates, we just don't work that way."

My heart clenches at that notion but I know it's true, and wherever she is, and whoever she is with. She knows it too.

We met the right partners, at the wrong time.
