Chapter Text

Reyna grabbed Nico's arm.

Words had just appeared on it.

'Don't cry.'

"Should I write something to them?" Nico asked Reyna.

"No. Hylla says it best to wait until you're a teenager to start looking for your soulmate. Something about the freedom of not knowing your soulmate. I wasn't really listening." Reyna said.

"But I'm ten. I don't what to wait three years." Nico whined.

"Well you don't want to freak them out." Reyna petted his hair.

"Fine. Has your soulmate wrote anything today?" He asked.

"More hearts. They seem like a dork." Reyna smiled.

"Let's get back to Mythomagic. Soulmates make me bored." He held up a pack of cards.

"Alright." Reyna smiled.

And then they played.

*************

Leo looked down at his arm.

'Tell Mom to pick up Bianca from archery practice.'

His soulmate always wrote little reminders like that.
Always about Bianca and their mom.
Sometimes about Reyna, Jason or Will.

His soulmate seemed happy.

"Piper....yo Pipes." Leo said.

His best friend looked up from her Nintendo DS.

"What?" She asked.

"Where's my skateboard?"

"I put it in the garage. You know where it goes."

"Can you tell your mom that I'm heading out?" He asked.

Piper nodded.

Leo passed Piper's half-sister as he went out outside.
She was drawing hearts on her arms. Again.
