Those numbers were the current mantra Y/n was repeating in her head. Trying to calm herself down for the inevitable first day of university. She would have been fine if it wasn't a new environment . She would have to meet people all over again. Put herself in an uncomfortable situation she shouldn't even be in. If only she could have stayed, but this was a good opportunity for Y/n. She had gotten a scholarship for university. If she passed up that chance she would not hear the end of it from her father. She always focused in school, not really having much of a social life anyways left a lot of time for her. She was happy she finally got recognition for the hard work.
She needed the scholarship as well. It just being her and her dad, money was tight. When she was little her mother was actually with them. They always were at each other's throats. Yelling, screaming, and fighting. Nearly every single day. Y/n doesn't really remember when her parents were happy together. Which was weird because her father said they were soulmates.
Everyone apparently had a soulmate. Y/n was a little scared of them. She only had the knowledge of soulmates through her parents. So the example they set for her did not let her have a good opinion on them.
She had goosebumps all over her arms and a sinking feeling in her stomach. Was she really that nervous?
☁
Alexander was freaking out all morning. He was currently trying to rearrange his classroom to his liking. He had forgotten too the day earlier. He wanted it to be perfect. He was a new professor and he needed to impress his new students. Not like he needed to I mean look at the man. He was clearly attractive ,but he never believed so. He had been shaking all morning. At first he thought he just didn't eat enough, that he maybe had low blood sugar. So he ate, but he was still clearly shaking afterwards. He just chalked it down to him having nerves about his first day.
He was very young to be a teacher. He was around twenty-eight years old and he had yet to find his soulmate. He honestly thought he didn't deserve one or that he was just destined to be alone. He had come to that conclusion a long time ago. It made him feel a little bit better.
Alexander had finished setting up the classroom and let out a big sigh. Tired from so much work so early in the day. He sat down waiting for the class to file in at around an hour.
☁
Y/n saw the kids walking through the doors. She was a bit behind. Waiting to the catch the door and get there in time. She was the last to enter. Everyone had already found a seat. She glanced around the room looking for a seat. "There's one f'yeah love. In the front" She turned to where the voice was. She let out a gasp. Dropping her water bottle she had brought in the process. Her skin erupted into goosebumps, feeling like there was this itch in her she needed to scratch badly.
Alex had a problem of his own. He was frozen. He couldn't move. Nor did he want to be away from the beautiful girl in front of him. Their eyes didn't move from each others. He could sense the stares from the other students in the room. He couldn't care less about what they were doing. His stomach filled with butterflies and his cheeks flushed a bright pink. Was it her?
Y/n broke the eye contact while picking up her bottle and scurried to her seat. Her body didn't want to be away from him ,but to avoid any other conflict she would have to walk away. Alex sat in his desk and cleared his throat. "Um, Alright I'm Mr. Turner I'll be your musical theory teacher. I'm just going teh start wif the attendance. Christian?"
"Here."
"Philip."
"Here Sir."
"Ashlyn."
"Here."
"Y/n?" She raises her arm.
"Uh here, Mr Turner." He looks up and blushes like crazy. Jesus he is not going to survive this year.
☁
He soon then finished attendance. He was only missing around two students. If they are absent it is on their accord not his so he doesn't care. He is in the middle of explaining how this class runs and what to expect.
"Music theory is much like learning a second language. It takes time and over this course yeh will begin teh understand it. I can assure yeh all will be pros by the end of this semester and starting second we can get into the more advanced 'fings. Which I'm very.." He starts to trail off catching sight of Y/n. He pauses seeing her small smile she had given him. He gives one back right away and returns his thoughts back to the lesson. "I'm very excited to get into that. Now I honestly have nothing left for yeh lot. So class dismissed. Oh also read the first chapter in the books I hope all yeh bought." Within a blink of an eye all of the students have stood out of their chairs and booked it towards the door. For some reason Y/n stays behind.
"What can I d'yeh for love?" He asks. The pet names sink into Y/n.'I'd love to hear that more often' She shakes the disrespectful thought from her head. "I was wondering if we'd need any more extra materials for this class?" He's glad she stayed behind. He needs to be next to her or around her. His body won't let him otherwise. "Uh yes shit I have some paper here somewhere on me desk." He says tossing things around to find the list she needs. "Ah! Here it is. I honestly was going teh pass it out next class ,but I'll let yeh have it early." He hands over the blue slip to her. While taking the paper she brushed his hands in the process.
They both take big steps away from each other. Y/n has this hazy feeling over her. While Alex's hand is burning from the touch. It's not a bad type of burn. It feels really nice. Even though that put Y/n in a weird mindset she decides to break the silence. "What was that?" Alex looked up from his hand that was now tingling. He looks very panicked and it freaks her out a little bit. "What are you feeling right now?" he asks. "Dizzy sort of. Like Immediately felt like that after I touched your hand." She explains. His eyes go wide and a big smile forms on his lips. " I didn't think I'd find yeh. Never in a million years would I have thought you would be real." He sounds very airy and relieved. "What are you talking about?" She fumbles. He reaches for her hand bringing back the tingles. "Love you're my soulmate." Excuse me?

"What are you feeling right now?" he asks. "Dizzy sort of. Like Immediately felt like that after I touched your hand." She explains. His eyes go wide and a big smile forms on his lips. " I didn't think I'd find yeh. Never in a million years would I have thought you would be real." He sounds very airy and relieved. "What are you talking about?" She fumbles. He reaches for her hand bringing back the tingles. "Love you're my soulmate." Excuse Me?
Y/n immediately pulled her hand out of his. Causing Alex to look at her with a frown. Deep down in her tummy she could feel the disappointment of being away from his touch. "Yeah no, that's impossible." Alex stepped forward once again taking her hand and held it to his heart. He sighed once he could feel her on him. "Your hearts beating like a hummingbird." Her hand feels warm. It leaves him feeling tranquil. "That's because of you. You're my soulmate." Y/n lets a shaky breath at those words. She wished he'd stop saying them. "There has to be something wrong. I'm too young to have a soulmate." She says panicking. She starts to feel overwhelmed and scared. She stumbles back a little while Alex rushes to her aid. He sets her down on one of the desks chairs and he seats himself in one next to her. "There's no age limit to find your other half darlin'. It happens naturally." He coos brushing her hair over her shoulder to make her feel more comfortable.
"So we really are soulmates?" She asks, still a little shaken up. He gives her a big smile and a nod of his head. "Um how old are you?" She turned 18 last year so she'll be turning 19 soon. "I'm twenty-eight love." He had to live twenty-eight years without his soulmate. Longing for her the entire time. "I'm sorry you had to wait so long to find me." Alex honestly didn't care how long he waited. He finally got what he wanted and he couldn't be more happy about finding the beautiful girl in front of him. "I just really didn't think I'd ever find you, but it's all worth it now." There was still that awkwardness between the both of them. Mainly coming from Y/n. She had no idea how to handle this information. What was her dad going to think? Would he be upset? Also she'd have to move out since she can't be away from Alex for a long period of time. "I can see the gears turning in your head. Everything is going to be fine I swear." Alex reassures her. She turns her head towards his and smiles. "I just want to know how this is going to work. I also know nothing about soulmates." Alex is willing to explain every single thing to her ,but he was confused. Why didn't she know about soulmates? "What'd ya mean you know nothing about soulmates?" It saddened him a little knowing she was clueless about it ,but he was happy that she would probably have a lot of firsts with him. "Um My dad never taught me about them. He kind of shunned the idea of them since my mother left." She had tried to ask about them before. That ended her up with a snarky remark and a grounding to stay in her room with no dinner. That was specifically evil. Dinner was her favorite meal of the day.
"Well we feel the full extent of everything once we uh have sex. With each other of course." Jesus he just made that more awkward. A blush creeps its way onto Y/n's face once again. "We also can't be away from each other for long periods of time and when we are with each other you're supposed to feel tingly, warm, and calming." He was right about the last part. The both of them felt that already. Alex was definitely excited to feel more. "How is the 'can't be away from each other' thing going to work? I currently live with my dad still so." That was one of the things worrying her at the moment.
She knew her dad would forbid her leaving with her soulmate. It did make her feel upset that her father would probably deny her the love from her soulmate and force her to be miserable. "When we are away from each other we feel pain. It's not unbearable ,but it's like an uncomfortable amount. It also feels like there's an itch under our skin that we can't scratch." Once Alex had gotten done explaining Y/n's phone went off.
Father
Aren't classes done for the day. Why aren't you home yet?
"Shit, it's my dad. He's expecting me home soon. I'm sorry." Alex started to panic. She was leaving him already. She can't, he won't survive without her. He hadn't realized he blanked and had tuned back into Y/n calming him down. "Hey, I promise you it's going to be okay, alright? I'm not leaving you forever. I just have to go home for tonight." Y/n did not want to leave what so ever. She wanted to stay and hear him talk for hours. "Can I at least have your number? Please, I just need to know I can call you." He could honestly start crying at this point. It hurt him a little too much knowing he could not be with her every minute of the day. "Yes of course."
☁
Y/n had since left and so did Alex. She waited for him to lock up his classroom before leaving to go back home. He offered to give her a ride ,but she opted out for walking. It gave her time to listen to her music.
It was around 3:30 p.m. when she got home to her father. "What took you so long leaving?" Her Father interrogated right when she stepped into the kitchen. "I had a few questions for my new teacher. He was super nice about it." She smiled. Her Father's eyebrows raised suspiciously. "How nice was this teacher?" She was faced away from him so he couldn't see her big grin. "Very nice. Helped figure out the extra materials and everything." He was still not buying it. "Well I would love to answer more questions ,but I'm leaving to my room now!" She rushes running upstairs to her room. Kicking the door closed behind her, she jumps on her bed and checks her messages.

"That's Longing, Honey." Sneak Peek
Alex Turner x Fem Reader
She always felt empty. No matter how many crushes or almost lovers, she was always left with a longing in her chest. The feeling had been there since she was little.
She used to ask her mother what that feeling was. Her mother would always say just one sentence to her in response. "That's longing, honey." It was always said with a sweet sad smile. She could count the amount of times she's been told that. It was so frustrating. Why was it so difficult for her to get answers? No matter how many people she spoke to about it. The answers they gave just never helped. There was always one piece missing. But some one on earth had felt exactly the same
