Chapter Text
When born everyone will be given a watch. A See-through, colourless watch... until it touches your skin. Suddenly the watch will burst into a colour that reflects your personality. No one knows where they came from but doctors soon found people couldn’t live without them; no watch ment no soulmate and your body wouldn’t be able to handle it and instead slip into a coma. What was recently found is that rare colours mean rare powers e.g enhanced strength, enhanced speed or ...
And then there was Alfred and his twin Matthew the first in 500 years to be born with gold and silver watches (respectively) heading to a new town: heta-town

Alfred’s pov:
“Matthew!” I groaned loudly while sliding down the stairs.
I feel like everyone has given up telling me to act my age, (which is 16 if you needed to know) especially Matthew who has lived with me for so long that he’s just accepted my childishness. I really love my brother for that at least when he’s not being passive-aggressive. He then turned round while putting his bag on his back (which was shaped like a polar bear) “not my fault you smash the alarm clock every morning, I’ll wait for you but I don’t want to be late for my first day of school so hurry up.”
“Dude you just reminded me! Have you checked your watch?”
“Have you checked your watch” he said while glancing back at his watch.
Freezing in place I watched eyes widened and mouth gaped open “check your watch...”
I looked down at my watch only to find myself squeal a little it said ‘4 hrs, 40 mins and 10 seconds’. Now it’s ‘9’... ‘8’... ‘7’... ‘8’...? Wait no sorry that was ‘6’.
“Could you stop talking to yourself?” Matthew said quietly “anyway the point is that it is at lunch...”
“Awesome... I hope he realises you’re there. oWw!” I placed my hand of my aching cheek as pain pierced my face “so uncalled for.”
“Mum and dad have already left for work so you can get something on the way, sometimes I feel like your parent rather than brother.”
“Dude, are you just mad that are friends are back in California? We can still visit them, remember ‘new town new life!”
??? Pov:
Dear diary,
I’ve had the oddest feeling today as if i’ve forgotten something extremely important. Nevertheless, i’m Positive that when the time comes the thing at the tip of of my tongue will be remembered. On to the topic at hand, my family.
With the exception of peter my brothers have all started working now so it is quite nice to have the house moderately quite. I simply cannot wait to graduate from this dreadful hell we have masked as a school yet I must try as hard as I can in order to succeed in life and erase this ghastly curse which has been place upon me. I dread the day I meet my other half because I know, although nearly impossible, I would be rejected at once. Is it bad that I wish for their sake one of us dies before the meeting? As if I would be granted such a blessing. To make matters worse the curse has evolved... I am no longer allowed to be alone with peter so a nice couple now ‘babysit’ while my brothers are working. Although kind they cannot mask the immense terror they feel from being in my presence. Speaking of terror the tall man is quite frightening in his own right — does he even realise that he could easily snap me like a twig?
Nearly forgot to write this! The fairies are still helping but the curse is effecting them too. Is it selfish that I can’t let them go when they are the only friends I have? I have my brothers but I cannot fall reliant on them. Amber the fairy of happiness isn’t looking great so I pray for her health however She insists on following to school since for whatever reason it is an important day. In fact there are quite a lot of fairies tagging along with me... I wish they would just tell what was so special about the day.
