Another day at the karaoke bar and (y/n) was updating the aesthetic blog on her phone. She giggled as she made the picture of her and her best friend cuter with stickers in an editing app.
The (h/c) haired young woman smiled as she posted the pic on their blog as well.
The female was the only one at the bat as her friend was with Ikkaku, the grunpier female had taken the day off to be with her thunder god of a soul mate. (Y/n) was happy for her friend and closed her phone.
Ikkaku's friends have been coming to the bar since they first found it, the shark guy and Imp were friendly and easy to get along with.
The (h/c) haired female liked when they came to visit and give their business to the bar.

Speaking of which, the two came into the bar.
"Good afternoon, (y/n).," the shark like male said with a friendly smile, "I'd like to have the same room as before please."
"It's open, go right on back.," the female replied, "Just give me a ring when you decide what you want, or do you want your regular?"
"Regular please!," the imp like male chirped happily.
"Go on back, Kojiro and Manji.," (y/n) said, "I'll bring the snacks to you."
The two had grins on as they went back and the female got their snacks for them, she was always happy to have someone come to the bar. All business is good business!

The young woman brought the males their snacks and her hand was grabbed by Manji, "Hey, want to come to the beach with us? It will be fun!"
"The beach?", (y/n) asked, "sure, when are you going?"
"Next week.," Kojiro answered, "Ikkaku and (Bff/n) will be there."
"That sounds fun!," the female replied, "Anyone else?"
"I think that Ido's soulmate got some time off from boss.," the shark male said, "She's nice, you'd like her."
"Ido... he's one of the twins that wears the maid dresses right?," (y/n) asked.
"Yes, he and his brother work for our boss. His soulmate is also working for us.," The shark male said with a smile, "She usually does the laundry and helps with meals."
Manji seemed to be bouncing in his seat, he was quite hyper.
"(Bff/n) and (IdoSM) are so cute and nice~ I want to find my soulmate too!," Manji said cheerily.

Kojiro just smiled and patted the small male's head, "You just may, she might be a little angel to compliment your devil~"
"Wow! That would be so cool!," Manji said excitedly.
(Y/n) peeked put to check for more visitors and saw she had none, she turned back to the males.
"So you two have not met your Soulmates yet?," the female asked.
The blue haired male shook his head sadly, "Unfortunately no, my soulmate marker was lost when I had the accident where I lost my legs. And I'm afraid she would be afraid of my eyes."
"I've been with Senpai and the others for pretty much my whole life!," Manji cheered, "it is so much fun to play with everyone!"
The woman smiled, "I think you two will find the most adorable soulmates. You, Kojiro, will find her, it is not just a mark that binds you. It's the urge to keep seeing and searching if they are lost."
The imp and Shark males looked in awe at her knowledge, "Did you find yours?"
"Not at all. I'm afraid he is no more.," the female said, "A few years ago, I was in so much pain from our link that I went into a coma. During the coma we were able to feel and sense each other before it faded away and I felt nothing."

The blue haired male nodded, "I'm sorry for your loss."
"I hope you find happiness.," Manji said.
"I do, living with my best friend and this job makes me happy.," the female said, "Having our customers come makes me happy!"
The two males seemed a lot happier and put on a karaoke song for both to sing and play with.
(Y/n) went back to the front desk and checked her phone to see that her bestie and her soulmate had taken a picture together. The blond man with his pink eyes looked so wild and powerful next to the scrappy woman next to him. But they were so passionate about each other and it was a pure and loyal love.
The (h/c) haired female sent a message to her friend to wish them the best.

It was another slow day but Kojiro and Manji were having fun in the room they rented, she happily listened to the males sing and play. It was like hearing children play.
She closed her eyes and breathed deeply.
The ocean, the link she used to feel was like the feeling of the ocean.
The warm feeling every time she was in the ocean.
She opened her eyes when the phone buzzed and she picked it up, "Yes?"
"It is time for us to pay. But can we buy two more hours?," the voice of Kojiro said.
"Of course.," the female said and punched in two more hours, "Can you pay for that?"
"Yes we can.," Kojiro replied.
The female hung up and went back to meditating over the feeling she used to have in the coma, feeling her Soulmate's heart and their bond.
She did not realize that the two hours were up and the two males came to pay for their time.
The name of her soulmate floated back into her mind from somewhere in the distant past, "Shiro..."
Her eyes seemed glazed over as she was lost in the memory of her soulmate link that was broken.

Kojiro heard the name and froze, it made a burning feeling in the pit of his stomach to hear his old name.
Manji noticed, "Senpai, is something wrong?"
"It's nothing Manji.," the young man said and tapped at the female at the front desk.
Her (e/c) eyes came back to life and she sat up quickly, "I'm sorry, is it over?"
"Yes, I'm ready to pay.," the blue haired male said and his black sclera eyes looked concerned, "Are you okay though? You said a name."
"I-It's fine! Don't worry, I'll just get your total amount added up and send you on the way, okay?," the young woman said and tallied up the amount that was owed. Kojiro paid for the services and looked to the young woman.
"Are you sure you are okay?," the male asked.

"Completely fine. Just caught up in the past again.," the female said and waved goodbye to the shark like man and the imp teen.
The two waved back and left.
"That was fun as always Senpai!," Manji cheered, "I can't wait to go play with everyone at the beach!"
Kojiro was silent as his friend was chattering away he nodded to the younger male's words but thought deeply.
The pain of losing a soulmate must be hellish. And she had to shoulder that pain for my years after feeling her soulmate die.
He wished that he had the right words to give her to give her comfort.
Manji pulled at Kojiro's sleeve, "Senpai? Should we go home? You don't look well."
"Oh... Yeah.," the male said and went home with the smaller imp male walking with him.

The week flew by and (bff/n) was changing into a swimsuit to impress Ikkaku with, (y/n) just wore a simple suit that was streamlined for swimming.
The two girls made their way to the beach and found a small group of people out there.
Manji was already playing in the water with Kojiro while a blond male with a veil over his head sat in a tent and watched them.
Two wine haired males were fretting over an elf looking blond while a woman in a bikini with a rose mark on her left breast sat beside him and watched the twins.
A tall man was sitting with a pale and pretty pink haired woman who seemed happy to watch the others like a couple of proud parents.
A man with blue hair was reading a book while a pale indigo haired teen looked on with a grumpy expression.
Ikkaku was standing off to the side and saw the two women, he turned to the elf and spoke to him before the elf turned back to look at the women.
The twins looked at them, as did the female next to the Elf. The woman in the bikini go up and greeted the two you women, "Glad you accepted the invitation. We are happy to have you two. I am Ido's soulmate, (IdoSM)."
"Nice to meet you.," (y/n) said with a smile, "You're really pretty, Ido must be happy. Which is he by the way?"
The rose marked woman smiled and waved to her soulmate, the neater haired twin waved back.  The two females also waved to the group. The reaction was mixed.
The rose marked woman grabbed (bff/n)'s hand, "Welcome to the insane family. I'm glad to have another woman with Kujaku to talk to."
(Y/n) smiled and put the stuff down to set up the tent, she was surprised that Ido and his brother helped her.

She thanked them once they did set up the tent and offered drinks from the cooler she brought. The two said no but thanks.
She saw a shadow hover over her after the two left, she looked behind her to see Kojiro.
His eyes were wide and had a tear falling from one.
"Kojiro?," the female asked, "Is something wrong? Why are you crying?!"
(Bff/n) and Ikkaku's attention was caught from that.
"Are you crying again? Damn you're emotional.," the thunderous male asked.
Kojiro got so choked up that he could not speak and hugged (y/n) tightly, he adamantly held her tight and did not let go.
(Y/n) looked over to see the others watching Kojiro, Elf looked kind of amused while Mei looked annoyed.
The female patted the male's back, "there there. It's fine, you can let it out."
He was warm and smelled like the ocean.

She heard the indigo male say somehing like, 'What the hell?'
(Y/n) looked to the new shimmering mark that appeared on Kojiro's arm.
A tribal shark marking, the same one that she had on her stomach.
Kojiro was hers. She had found the man she lost those years ago.
"But... I thought you were dead..," the female said.
Kojiro's face when he finally looked at hers again was pinkened and tear stained, (y/n) held his cheeks and pressed her forehead to his.
"It's okay. We are here. Together.," the female said and kissed the forehead of the shark male.
The woman with the wine colored rose mark walked up and held her hand out, "Welcome to our insane family, I'll show you the ropes."
"I'll take you up on the offer.," (y/n) said, "But first, I will go swimming with Kojiro. We need a long talk after all."

Kojiro nods and they go into the ocean.
The male was powerful as he swam, "I'm sorry you felt bad for so long."
"No. I'm sorry I lost hope in you.", (y/n) said as she hugged his neck.
The two embraced in the water and Kojiro spun in the water with his large tail following behind.
The feelings of sadness gave way to bliss and joy, passion and love was what they felt.
Kojiro pulled her in for a loving kiss.
Both emerged from the ocean to meet with the boss after the blond male called for them to come out.
The Elf introduced himself and explained the options for (y/n) to take.
She decided to take the one that allowed her to work with her soulmate more, she took the maid job to help the other woman.
(Y/n) and Kojiro were happy. They found each other and she now had a bigger family than she had before.

(Precious shark boy. Best boy.)
