in which they both have tattoos of the day theyāll meet on their arms. Jacob whoās born in our modern days has a tattoo that says 09.03.1943 and thatās insane! How can it be, time travel does not exist so it must be a mistake!Ā He knows about the stories grandpa told him but he still doesnāt believe. His parents tell him that grandpa probably chose the day in the story intentionally knowing about Jakeās mark and how he will probably be upset about it when heāll grow up.Ā Maybe grandpa created those stories just to cheer him up, make him believe that there really is someone for him.
But then Abe dies and his last words are about that goddamn date. So eventually Jacob finds the loop and the children and when he sees Emma he just instantly decides that it, thatās the girl, itās 09.03.1943, sheās pretty and kind and bold and she actually likes him so it must be her!Ā But he doesnāt tell her, doesnāt show the mark right away cause heās afraid to scare her off, he thinks itās too soon, waits for the right moment.Ā
He thinks that the right moment has come when they are on the ship, preparing to fight hollows and wights Ā to save miss Peregrine. He leans in to kiss Emma end tells her that he canāt leave her, they are soulmates after all and he shows her his mark.Ā
And oops Emma is shocked and kind of sad for him cause she has other date on her arm and she already found her soulmate and thatās Olive, the two of them met long before this loop was created. But she never tells him that the only person in this loop with a mark like that is Enoch. She thinks Jake should find that out for himself especially considering he and Enoch donāt get along very well.Ā
Jake finds out not long after when he and Enoch go to chek on how many hearts does Enoch have with him (how many skeletons he can bring to life with it), Enoch opens this big box full of organs, but before he does he rolls up his sleeves and thatās when Jacob sees it.Ā A tattoo with the exact same numbers.
Jake is terrified cause you know theyāre going into a battle, someone might get hurt or die even, and even if they all survive he has to go back home in his time, what should he do about all that?Ā
Jacob decides not to do anything for now, but he worries about Enoch, he tries to keep Enoch safe and all that. And he also notices how well they work together as a team, and how Enoch is protective of him too. And they both survive this battle but Jake still has to go home, so he doesnāt tell Enoch about all that soulmate stuff.
But then a year or so later he comes back, for Enoch, who already knows (ācome on Jake, iām not that stupid, i figured it out much earlier than you did!ā), and whoās been waiting for him.Ā
But thereās also Enochās side of that story. Imagine how he must have lived in the times much older than 09.03.1943 in other loop and couldnāt even imagine why would he end up in this other year, wold it be a new loop, or will he just live that long in the one he lives now?
Then Miss Peregrine takes him to her loop where he meets her children and thereās no one there with the same mark on their arm. So Enoch waits for years and years when finally he gives up that stupid idea of a stupid love for some stupid stranger.Ā
So when Jacob finally shows up decades later Enoch hates him! He doesnāt even have to look at his hands to be sure. Of course itās him. Who else would it be? So Enoch is all like āWell thatās just perfect! I was waiting for that dumb boy all those years and when i gave up, when i started hating even the idea of soulmate there he is! With his dumb blue eyes and his dumb everything! And maybe if i scare him enough heāll run home to his time and leave me in peace?"Ā
Later he realizes of course that thereās another reason to why he was trying to scare Jake off. He was actually scared himself. That when Jakeāll see this mark on his arm, when heāll also see what Enochās peculiarity is, what he can do, Jake will actually run away willingly.Ā
But he didnāt. He got scared of course but he didnāt run, he stayed, he helped, they even got friendly by the end of their adventure.Ā
And when they say goodbye Enoch suddenly realizes he will be missing this boy, he doesnāt want to let him go, but he should. And heās not even sure now that Jacob really is his soulmate, he never told him, they never checked their tattoos to see if they match.Ā
So he doesnāt say anything, and then he waits for Jacob to return again, not even knowing for sure that he will actually return. But Jacob comes back eventually. He comes back to Enoch.
