Plato’s a Dick
BTS as we know them in a Soulmate AU. Soul mates are identified by a mark on the left inner wrist. Most soul marks appear from puberty to age 25. Soul marks can be triggered by life events. Life is full of surprises and challenges.“Plato’s a dick…”. I mutter under my breath.
“Why?” Is the soft response in a deep slightly accented voice.
I look to my bedside and see a face I know from so many parts of the last 8 years. My daughter's excitement to share her new favorite music. Laughter at the silliness of him and his members in their shared mania both on stage and off. My own desperate attempts to heal a loss with the lyrics this man has written, played on repeat for weeks on end. Joy at seeing some of that same music performed live after 2 years of no concerts.
“Hi, Plato’s a dick because he got it wrong, but right enough to change my whole universe.” I say attempting to lift myself to a sitting position on the bed and offer a handshake. “I’m Jen and I guess this,” gesturing to my mark and overall appearance “means I’m your soulmate.”
“Well, not just mine.” He responds calmly with a small sigh looking at me from under his lashes.
