    Summary

    Isak would never say this out loud, but he’s a hopeless romantic.
    His mother told him stories about the soulbond, how everyone was born with a symbol somewhere on their bodies, linking them to someone else, somewhere in the universe.
    These symbols were a representation of the soulmates’ souls.

    Summary

    Willie squeezes his hand. "Do you want to talk about what happened today, or do you wanna go watch me crash and fall off my skateboard at the park while I try some gazelle flips?"

    Alex laughs. "I want to talk."

    "Okay. Take your time, okay? We've got all the time in the world, yeah?"

    "Two days ago my mom told me my grandmother was in town and wanted to meet with me," Alex starts, not giving himself any more time to think. Willie's thumb traces circles on the back of his hand, comforting him. "I thought, maybe my grandmother wants to connect with her only remaining family. That's how it started out, too. It really seemed like that was her intention. But then she asked about—I can't even remember his full name. But she asked me about the prince of Beasiga. The prince of Beasiga, who was my father." Willie's thumb stops.

    Summary

    “You don’t look okay Alex,” Julie said, raising an eyebrow at his bouncing leg. Alex sighed.
    “It really doesn’t matter.”
    “Try us,” she responded. Alex bit his bottom lip.
    “I don’t think Willie’s Dad likes me.” Bobby snorted, and Julie glared at him.

    Summary

    Alex has been crushing on Willie for almost two years at this point, ever since he walked into the coffee shop for the first time, wearing a tie dye crop top and showing off his tattoos, his long brown hair open and flowing over his shoulders.
    Alex had been a bit intimidated by Willie, until he’d opened his mouth and been gentle and polite in ordering, and had said hi, because Alex was a new employee he didn't know yet.
    And Alex, one week into an incredibly stressful job with too many people getting angry at him for not knowing their regular orders even though they said in the same fucking breath that he was a new face, had basically fallen for him immediately.
    (He’d also literally fallen for Willie, who’d run him over with his skateboard once, a few months later.)

    AKA the barista/tattoo artist au literally nobody asked for, in which alex finally gets a piercing and also the boy he likes
