   (So the soulmate au for a valentines day special got positive feedback so please enjoy  the Red String of Fate.)

     Komaeda Nagito never gave much mind to the little red string on his pinky finger growing up and it seemed the person on the other end didn't either. Which was fine-I mean, they were both just little children after all. 

   He had never given much thought to the person on the other end either. They were probably just some amazing person forever attached to a loser like him after all. Komaeda never saw himself in a positive light growing up and once he really learned about this peculiar string, he was certain whoever was on the other end would cut the string the second they laid eyes on him. 

   No, Komaeda Nagito never gave much mind to the little red string on his pinky finger growing up. . .until his dog got struck by a truck in the street.

   As the dog laid bleeding out in his arms at the side of the street, struggling and gasping for each breath, he couldn't help but note the frantic tugging coming from the string on his pinky finger, almost as if that person knew that he was in distressed. It was the first time Komaeda really noticed his soulmate.

   It was just a coincidence, he was certain. They probably weren't even trying to get Nagito's attention but he was thankful. It felt like there was someone right next to him, supporting him.

   One day his parents had just died a few days ago, Nagito found himself sitting on his bed, feeling completely numb. There was no one in the world left for him, no friends or relatives that could take him in.

   And that was when his eyes fell to the string on his finger. He realized that there was someone there who was meant to be with him although he was already at the point where he couldn't possibly see why. He seemed to bring misfortune wherever he went and he found himself terrified that if he got too close to them they would die. 

   He gave it an experimental hard tug and was surprised when the person on the other end tugged back. For the first time in days, Komaeda smiled. 

   He wondered if the string could slip off of his finger.

   As the years passed and more fortunate and unfortunate things happened to him, he thought more of his soulmate, who always responded when he tugged on the rope. He wondered what it would be like to meet them. . .

   Hinata Hajime never gave much mind to the little red string on his pinky string growing up, and it seemed the person on the other end did either.

   The first time he actually really thought about there being a person on the other end, he was about ten years old. It was an incredible thought, really. There was someone out there, a perfect person out there just for him!

   The thought excited him and before he could think things through, he was frantically tugging on the string, trying to get his soulmate's attention and was saddened when he got no response. He hoped his soulmate was doing okay.

   He wondered if he would ever find him.

   One day Hinata was just sitting at his desk doing his homework when he felt a tug on the string. It felt sort of hesitant but at the same time it was clear to see that they were checking to see if he was there. Hinata had smiled and happily tugged back.

   The years passed by and each time he had exchanged tugs with his soulmate he couldn't help but feel his heart flutter. He silly that he was falling in love with a person he'd never even met. As soon as he was old enough, he would set out and follow the string to find them. He couldn't wait!
