In this world there is a web of red threads. Forged from different people, connected to the soul they were meant to be with...Their soulmate. The Red Thread of Fate. However, only you can see your thread and who it connects to. Unless you are unfortunate enough to have your thread severed or you have a special lens. Which normally only happens if your soulmate is no longer walking the earth or you were one of very few fortune tellers.

Children make mistakes but learn from them. That's how they grow. One day when you were around six, one of your classmates brought in a special lens that their grandmother had that could see the threads of others if you peered through it. During break time, that classmate and their friends thought it would be fun to cut a random thread they found, not knowing what it would cause or whose it was since there were so many. When they cut it, it happened to be yours and in the moment it was severed you felt like your soul had a piece taken from you. On top of now being able to see everyone else's thread in the world. Little did you know, Simon Riley, experienced the same things that day.

You and Simon went through life seeing the people around you finding their soul mates. Seeing their red threads disappear after their first kiss. Not knowing where their soulmate was. After years, Simon gave up trying to look for his. He thought they must be in the afterlife if his thread was cut. So he went through life living everyday like it was his last.

One day, Task Force 141 went on a group leave for two weeks to the Bahamas. Beach, fun, drinks, and unmatched woman ready for fun. What he didn't know was you were there as well, on a vacation with friends. Simon is walking with Gaz, Price, and Soap towards a little area to get some food. They were laughing and chatting when he felt a tug on his pinky, and saw his once cut thread was reconnected to someone once again. No one knew that if your thread was cut, when your soulmate is close, it would reconnect. "Bloody hell." Simon breaths out softly.
