Duke was just getting off patrol and when he first spotted you... He was in aww, he felt a spark ignite, well more of an itch on his soulmate mark.. The same mark that had appeared on the back of his shoulder the day he turned seventeen. He'd heard some people felt their marks itch when they saw their soulmates but it wasn't possible was it?

Well it doesn't matter, he's got to get to school and based on the fact you look around his age and wore his schools uniform, maybe he can do a little digging to find out more about you by befriending you at school or maybe asking around. It didn't take long after he arrived to learn of the new student, not much from people other than rumors.

This is why he decided to befriend you, and the best way possible? Easy, he volunteered to help you catch up with the rest of the class when you joined the class. Yeah he wants to use it to get to meet you but even if he wasn't curious he'd help you. Honestly as he spend the class with you he came to quite like you, maybe you are his soulmate seeing as his itch hasn't stopped since saw you.

"Let's hang out!" Duke suggest, stopping his other thoughts in their tracks, he's looking at you with a smile and excitement in his eyes. He wants to know more about wether you are his soulmate or not doesn't matter.
