let me love you and then colour me in
Summary: Everything changes, and nothing changes. Color matters only as another tactical advantage. The woman—his soulmate, what a fucking joke—is nothing to him.
He had a family. A woman he loved. And now she’s gone, they’re all gone.
Now he has a mission. That’s all he has.
He’s not about to let anything—or anyone—get in the way of that.
…
Except fate has a sick sense of humor.
His soulmate doesn’t want to get in the way. She wants to help.
Canon compliant soulmate AU where everyone’s world is black and white until they meet their soulmate. Part canon re-telling, part character study, part excessive use of color as a motif.
Happy New Year, Sara! As soon as I read “soulmate AU!!!!!!!!” in your prompts, I knew I had to write this. I hope you like it, and I hope it was worth the wait! (And that you don’t mind waiting a little more: chapter 2 coming next week…) <3 <3 <3
He and Maria weren’t soulmates.
They knew it when they met, and they knew it when they started dating, and they knew it when she got pregnant, but it didn’t matter.
It never had. He’d never put much stock in it anyway. Sounded too much like a fairytale.
And life was anything but a goddamn fairytale.
