The Caitlyn Kiramman. Pop sensation. You’ve never even met her, but you’re out here liking and commenting on all her photos like some creepy fan. Honestly, Vi, it’s pathetic.”Grinding her teeth, Vi leaned back on the sofa. “Says the guy whose voice cracked like a dying bird when he tried to talk to the Chem Sisters’ lead singer,” she shot back, arms crossing defensively.From the loveseat, her sister let out a high pitched laugh, slapping her knee. “She’s got you there, Mylo. You can’t throw shade when you can’t even say ‘hi’ without squeaking like a chew toy.”Mylo frowned but kept his cool. “I’m just saying, Vi. You’re stalking her Instagram like some lovesick fangirl. If you’re gonna thirst over Caitlyn, at least do it in the DMs. What are you waiting for? You’re Vi  freakin’  Lanes—lead singer and guitarist of  Arcane! Grow some b@lls already!”Vi rolled her eyes so hard it was a miracle they didn’t fall out of her head. “What do you want me to do, huh? Slide into her DMs with some corny line like, ‘Hey, Caitlyn, I noticed you like singing. Me too. Let’s duet…  forever’?”“YES!” Mylo and Powder shouted in unison“Or how about something timeless, like, ‘Are you a setlist? Because I want to go through you over and over,’” Powder said, grinning as she popped a chip in her mouth.“Absolutely f@ck@ng not,” Vi groaned, grabbing a cushion and hurling it at her sister.“It’s no worse than your current strategy, which is lurking on her profile like some desperate fan,” Mylo chimed in, suddenly snatching Vi’s phone right out of her hands. “Here, let me help. Something simple, direct—‘Hey, Caitlyn, I’m Vi Lanes, a huge fan of your music and… also your ridiculously hot face.’”Vi’s face turned crimson as she launched herself at him. “Give me that!”Mylo dodged, laughing so hard he nearly fell over. But Vi wasn’t about to let him off that easy. She tackled him, knocking him flat onto the carpet with a loud oof.“Wait, wait! I’ve got another one: ‘Hey, Caitlyn, I noticed we both like music. Let’s h@t the right notes…  together.’” Mylo grinned, waggling his eyebrows. Vi snatched her phone back, glaring at him as she stood up and flopped dramatically onto the couch. “You’re both so f@ck@ng annoying.” Mylo sat up, adjusting his shirt with a smug smile. “We’re just trying to help you live your best life. If you DM her, she’ll probably faint. Or, y’know, fall madly in love with you.”“Or block you,” Powder added casually, crunching on another chip. “Either way, it’s a win for us because we’ll have material to roast you with for  years.”“I hate you both,” Vi muttered, though the corner of her mouth twitched.“No, you don’t,” Powder said, grinning as she tossed another chip into her mouth. “Now quit being a coward and just message her. If it’s a disaster, we promise to roast you… lovingly.”“Lovingly? Yeah, right,” Vi shot back sarcastically.“I’m serious!” Powder said, feigning offense. “Look, you’re not even meeting her in person yet, dumbass. It’s a text. You’re not about to confess your undying love. Just say something casual! You know, she literally comments on your posts all the time too, genius.”“She’s just nice like that!” Vi replied defensively.Powder and Mylo exchanged a knowing look, their smirks widening.“Fine,” Vi sighed, finally relenting. “But if this goes horribly wrong, I will not hesitate to beat the sh@t out of both of you.”Caitlyn was different from anyone Vi had ever been interested in. She wasn’t just stunning—though she  definitely was—she was also sweet, talented, and seemed so genuinely kind. The last thing Vi wanted to do was screw it up.With a deep breath, she grabbed her phone and opened Caitlyn’s page. Before she could overthink it, she went straight to her DMs.
  @ViForViolence

   hey! i saw you’re coming to our city next week. it would be cool if we could meet up? 
She hit send before she could second-guess herself.To her utter shock, Caitlyn replied almost immediately.
  @CaitKiramman

   Hello, Vi! That’d be lovely. I’ve been meaning to message you. I love your music! I feel like we always somehow miss each other at events or red carpets. I’ll have my manager send you the info so you can get backstage at the next concert. Will it be just you, or can I expect your bandmates as well? 
Vi stared at her phone, her heart pounding like a bass drum. “Holy sh@t, she replied,” she whispered, her voice barely audible.“What?!” Mylo and Powder were at her side in seconds, craning their necks to see her screen.“She replied?” Mylo slapped her on the back hard enough to make her lurch forward. “I told you, Vi! I told you this would work!”“Hell yeah, sis! Get that cookie!” Powder crowed, throwing a handful of chips in the air like confetti.“Stop saying sh@t like that!” Vi groaned, her face a deep shade of pink as she typed again, trying to block them out.
  @ViForViolence

   our drummer is actually a huge fan of yours so yeah i think they’d all love to come. your music is great too btw. i can send you my number? 
It was true—Claggor had been a die-hard fan of Caitlyn’s music for years. He’d probably lose his mind when Vi told him about this.Caitlyn replied almost instantly again.
  @CaitKiramman

   Sure! I can’t wait to meet you, Violet. 
Vi’s jaw dropped.  Violet. Caitlyn knew her full name. That meant she’d looked her up, right? She didn’t just know her stage persona—she knew  her.She quickly exchanged numbers with Caitlyn and saved her contact, her heart racing like she’d just finished a show.“Well?” Mylo asked, practically vibrating with anticipation. “What did she say?”Vi looked up at them, still in disbelief. “She called me Violet. She knew my actual name.”Powder clapped her hands together. “Oh, she’s been Googling you. She’s into you, sis.”“Shut up,” Vi muttered, though the smile tugging at her lips said otherwise. 📍  Flexin’ at the gym 📸 Photo from @ViForViolence’s Instagram Profile: Vi standing front and center of the gym mirror, flexing her muscles with a cocky smirk.

Vi was proud that the band’s success had allowed her to give them both a place they could call home, a far cry from the chaos of their childhood.“Hmm?” Powder called back lazily from downstairs. She was setting up her filming equipment for her YouTube channel, carefully adjusting the camera angle and lighting. Powder was known online by many as Jinx. She was an immensely popular YouTuber with over five million subscribers. Her content was often wildly chaotic—a perfect reflection of her personality to anyone who knew her well.“Why the  f@ck did you tag me in Caitlyn’s post?! I already had a million tags on it as it is, Pow!”A burst of cackling erupted from below, followed by the sound of thundering footsteps. Moments later, Powder appeared at the bathroom doorway, a devilish grin plastered across her face. “C’mon, Vi. I just wanted to join the party.”Vi groaned, towel-drying her wet hair as she glared at her sister. “Now I can’t even comment!”“You still can, you big doofus,” she replied, leaning casually against the doorframe.“No, I can’t! Now it’ll look too obvious,” Vi muttered, avoiding her sister’s amused gaze. “Why is everyone shipping us? It’s literally just a few comments.”Powder raised an eyebrow and let out a dramatic snort. “A  few comments? Dude, you two comment on  every single post of each other’s. You’re practically writing sonnets. It’s nauseating.”Vi’s cheeks turned a light shade of pink as she scowled at her reflection in the mirror. “It’s not that  bad and it’s not on  every single post!”“Not that bad?!” Powder repeated, her voice dripping with exaggerated disbelief as she mocked Vi. She crossed her arms, smirking in that infuriating way only Powder could pull off. “Sis, if  her  fans and  your fans are noticing it… You know what? Fine, post a selfie or something and let’s see if she comments on it again.”Vi groaned, reaching for her phone on the bathroom sink. “I just posted two days ago,” she muttered, already sensing where this was headed.“And?” Pow raised an eyebrow, entirely unfazed by Vi’s resistance. “What, is there a selfie quota now? Hand it over, fat hands.”Before Vi could even muster a protest, Powder lunged forward and snatched the phone right out of her grasp. Vi sighed, leaning against the counter, resigned to her fate. Fighting Powder was a losing battle, and honestly, it was easier to just let her do her thing most of the time.She scrolled through Vi’s camera roll with the speed and precision of someone who made chaos an art form. Which she did. Her eyes lit up as she zeroed in on a photo, her face splitting into a devilish grin. “Ooh, this one is perfect!” she declared, holding up the screen like she’d unearthed a hidden treasure.Vi straightened up, instantly suspicious. “Show me.”“Nope,” the blue-haired girl said gleefully, pulling the phone back and ignoring Vi’s outstretched hand. She was typing furiously now, her mischievous energy practically vibrating off of her.“Pow, come on—”“And… done!” Powder cut her off, handing the phone back with a triumphant flourish.Vi groaned again, running a hand down her face. She was almost too scared to check the caption. Knowing her sister, it was probably equal parts mortifying and genius. 📍  Movie Premiere 📸 Photo from @ViForViolence’s Instagram Profile: Vi, looking effortlessly sharp in a red suit and black tie, striking a confident pose at a movie premiere the band had been invited to just last week—ironically, for a medieval fantasy film.📝Caption:   here I am, princess🛡️🗡️ 💬Comments…@caitvisandwich :  no way, is she responding to cait’s last post? 😭@clagonmygor :  @CaitKiramman @ekkoswife13 :  god she’s so f@ck@n’ fineeee @GETJINXED :  @CaitKiramman @mylo6969 :   @CaitKiramman @claggorlanes :  Lookin’ sharp, sis! @SarahFortune :  can I be your princess, baby? 🤤    @kuntykiramman replied to @SarahFortune: oh hell nah who the f@ck are you?       @visabs replied to @kuntykiramman: let’s just say she’d be FORTUNate if Vi even replies HA            @kuntykiramman replied to @visabs:   babe… ur lucky I love u @CaitKiramman :  Hello there 😍    @caitviendgame replied to @CaitKiramman: no f@ck@ng way (i changed my user just now btw)    @kirammansb1tch replied to @CaitKiramman: omfg CAITLYN DATE HER !

Would ya look at that?” Powder drawled, her smirk smug and self-satisfied as she leaned over Vi’s shoulder to scroll through the comments on her latest post. The photo had barely been up for ten minutes, but it was already gaining traction—serious traction.And right there, nestled among hundreds of other comments, was Caitlyn’s. Short, sweet, and already blowing up with replies from fans. Powder’s grin widened as she tapped on it, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “See? I told you she’d comment. The fans are already eating it up.”Vi, however, wasn’t handling it quite so gracefully. Her face was practically  on fire, a deep crimson that only intensified the longer she stared at Caitlyn’s response. She could feel the heat radiating off her skin like a furnace, her ears burning as she tried (and failed) to act unaffected.“Yeah, yeah, whatever,” Vi mumbled, attempting to brush it off as casually as she could. But the waver in her voice and the way she avoided eye contact gave her away completely.Powder snorted, clearly enjoying every second of her sister’s embarrassment. “Aw, you’re  blushing, sis. That’s so cute. She’s totally got you wrapped around her finger and you haven’t even met her yet!”

The thought of finally meeting Caitlyn had her buzzing, her mind racing with anticipation. But alongside that thrill came the gnawing anxiety—what if she embarrassed herself? What if Caitlyn didn’t like her? Vi wasn’t used to feeling like this. She’d always been the picture of confidence, never caring too much about what girls thought of her. She was Vi Lanes, after all—badass lead singer and guitarist of  Arcane. But now? God. She wanted Caitlyn to like her. Not just like her music or her public persona, but her. She wanted to impress Caitlyn, to be someone worth remembering.When Vi told Claggor about Caitlyn’s concert, his reaction was something she hadn’t expected. He cried. Actual tears, streaming down his face like he’d just been handed a lifetime achievement award. Vi stood there, slack-jawed, as he went on about how “Caitlyn Kiramman is the greatest gift to music,” and how “meeting her will be the pinnacle of my existence.” She knew Claggor was a big softie—his obsession with rom-coms was proof enough—but she never imagined he’d get this emotional over meeting another celebrity, especially since he was technically one himself. But there he was, a blubbering mess, clutching his chest like he’d been struck by Cupid’s arrow.For Vi, though, things started to take a weird turn two days before the concert. A dull, throbbing headache crept in, and with it came something even stranger: a melody. It wasn’t loud, just a faint tune playing on an endless loop in the back of her mind, but it was impossible to ignore. She knew what it meant. Everyone knew the stories. Soulmates. Powder and Ekko had found each other already, and while Vi was happy for them, she’d never thought it would happen to her. It was so rare, almost mythical. According to the lore, everyone had a melody only their soulmate could hear. It could be their favorite song, a tune that resonated with them, or just something they had listened to recently. At first, it was faint, barely noticeable, but as you got closer to your soulmate, it grew louder, clearer. For Vi, the melody wasn’t anything she recognized, but it was catchy.She tried everything to figure it out. She hummed it into music search apps, even scrolled through endless playlists, but nothing matched. The frustration gnawed at her, simmering beneath her skin. It was like having an itch she couldn’t scratch, a puzzle she couldn’t solve. And the headache that accompanied it didn’t help either. But the last thing she wanted to do was tell her siblings. If she so much as mentioned it, Powder and Mylo would pounce on her like hyenas, teasing her relentlessly, and she just didn’t have the energy for that.So, she kept it to herself, masking her irritation as best as she could. Every time the melody looped in her mind, and her head began to throb, she popped a painkiller and tried to shake it off, hoping it would go away. But it didn’t. The melody stayed, persistent and unrelenting, like it was waiting for something—or  someone. 📍  Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, CA 📸 Photo from @CaitKiramman’s Instagram Profile: Caitlyn snapping a selfie in a cute pink tank top featuring a cupcake graphic, holding up a peace sign while sticking her tongue out and scrunching her nose adorably.

Powder had taken charge of her wardrobe, insisting on something that would make an impression. “Caitlyn won’t be able to resist you,” Powder had declared confidently, shoving a simple white crop top, Vi’s favorite red-and-black leather jacket, ripped jeans, and black combat boots into her hands. Vi agreed—it was undeniably her style.When they arrived at Levi’s Stadium, Caitlyn’s brother and manager, Jayce Talis, was waiting for them with backstage passes and front-row tickets. Vi was expecting his usual professionalism, but Jayce surprised her with a warm grin as he handed over the passes. Claggor, on the other hand, was the real spectacle. He clutched the passes to his chest like they were the holy grail, tears welling in his eyes already. Vi couldn’t help but laugh softly, though Mylo immediately started teasing him, calling him “the biggest crybaby in music,” which earned him a hard punch to the shoulder from Vi.As they made their way into the arena, a small crowd of fans gathered, recognizing the members of  Arcane. Vi paused to sign autographs and take a few selfies, momentarily forgetting her nerves. One fan, barely able to contain her excitement, asked, “Are you meeting Caitlyn after the show?”Vi’s laugh was soft but genuine. “Yeah, I am.”The girl’s shriek of joy rang through the air, and Vi felt a twinge of her own excitement returning. But before the fan could pepper her with more questions, Claggor was already tugging her toward the front row, practically vibrating with enthusiasm.Once they reached their seats, Vi dropped into hers, her leg bouncing uncontrollably. Her palms were slick with sweat, and her mind raced with worst-case scenarios.“Dude, relax,” Ekko said, smirking at her from the seat next to her. “You haven’t even met her yet.”Vi shot him a glare but didn’t respond. Before she could dwell on her nerves any longer, the arena was plunged into darkness. A hush fell over the crowd, the energy shifting as excitement rippled through the air. Then, with an explosion of light and sound, Caitlyn Kiramman appeared on stage, and the crowd erupted in cheers.Vi froze.Caitlyn was even more breathtaking in person than Vi had imagined. The spotlight bathed her in a golden glow, illuminating every detail of her dazzling ensemble. She wore a dark blue sequined crop top that sparkled with every movement, accentuating her toned midriff. High-waisted black leather pants hugged her legs perfectly, elongating her already statuesque figure. A delicate black choker adorned her neck, and her midnight-blue hair cascaded in soft waves over her shoulders. Bold eyeliner and red lipstick completed the look, emphasizing her striking features. Caitlyn wasn’t just a performer—she was a force of nature.Vi’s breath caught as she stared, captivated. The entire arena seemed to blur into the background; the only thing Vi could focus on was Caitlyn. Her heart raced, and the melody that had haunted her for days grew louder, more insistent, echoing in her mind. The headache that had plagued her was now pulsing tenfold. She felt a nudge from Ekko—who had noticed Vi rubbing at her temple—and discreetly handed her a few Advil. Vi popped them into her mouth without taking her eyes off Caitlyn, forcing herself to push the discomfort aside. She’d deal with whatever was happening later. Right now, Caitlyn was all that mattered.“Hey, San Francisco!” Caitlyn’s voice rang out, confident and warm, as she stepped up to the microphone. The cheers from the crowd were deafening, a wave of adoration crashing over the stage. Vi couldn’t help but smile as Caitlyn’s laughter rang through the speakers, her joy infectious.“I hope you’re ready for an incredible night,” Caitlyn continued, her voice filled with genuine excitement. “At the end of the setlist, I’ll be debuting a brand-new song.”The crowd roared, the energy in the arena reaching a fever pitch. Caitlyn’s eyes swept over the audience, taking in the sea of faces before her. And then, her gaze landed on Vi.The moment their eyes met, everything else faded away. Time seemed to slow, the noise of the crowd dimming to a dull hum. Caitlyn’s lips curved into a soft, knowing smile, and Vi felt her breath hitch.Then, as if to seal the moment, Caitlyn winked.It was playful, subtle—almost like a secret shared just between them. Vi’s pulse skyrocketed, her cheeks flushing as the rest of the world melted into the background. It felt like the universe itself had conspired to bring them to this exact moment.The melody in her head surged, its intensity almost overwhelming now, but Vi didn’t care. Caitlyn Kiramman had just winked at her.

   Caitlyn winking directly at Vi Lanes, who was sitting front row at the Levi’s Stadium concert in San Francisco earlier tonight. Vi’s face? Absolutely wrecked.

She couldn’t tear her eyes away. Caitlyn was mesmerizing—not just because of her voice, though it was stunning, but because of the way she owned the stage with an effortless confidence. Every movement, every note she hit seemed to command the room, and Vi was spellbound. She had never considered herself much of a pop music fan, but now? Now she was rethinking everything. Caitlyn might just convert her.Beside her, Claggor was an emotional wreck. He’d started tearing up halfway through the set when Caitlyn performed one of her slower, heartfelt love songs. His shoulders shook as he tried to muffle his sniffles, and Vi couldn’t help but pull him into a comforting side hug, patting his back gently. “You’re hopeless, Clagg,” she murmured with a soft smile, her teasing laced with affection.She wasn’t the only one who noticed. Caitlyn’s eyes flicked to them during the song, catching the moment, and her lips curved into the faintest, adoring smile. It was subtle, just a brief acknowledgment before she turned her attention back to the crowd, but Vi’s heart clenched. She couldn’t tell if she was imagining it, but it felt as though Caitlyn’s gaze lingered on her just a second longer than it needed to.As the performance continued, Vi became more convinced that these glances weren’t random. Every time Caitlyn’s piercing blue eyes met hers, it felt deliberate—like there was an unspoken connection being forged between them. The energy between them was magnetic, as if some unseen force was drawing them closer together with each passing song. Vi couldn’t shake the growing sense that an invisible thread connected them, one that only seemed to tighten as the night went on.She couldn’t wait to meet Caitlyn backstage, but a part of her wondered if she’d even manage to keep her cool when the moment finally came.As the setlist neared its end, Caitlyn stepped up to the microphone, slightly breathless, her voice tinged with exhilaration. “Alright, guys!” she called out, her tone electric as the crowd roared in response. “For this last song, I’m debuting my new single. It’s called  Used to This.”The audience erupted into cheers, but Vi didn’t hear them, too focused on Caitlyn.The music began, and Vi’s ears perked up instantly. The melody washed over the arena, and she froze. Her stomach flipped as the familiar beat coursed through the speakers, matching the same rhythm that had been looping in her mind for days.
   No. Way. 
Her breath hitched, the realization crashing into her like a tidal wave.  This is it. This is the song. The one that had been haunting her, echoing faintly in the back of her mind like a distant call—Caitlyn was singing it.Her pulse thundered in her ears as Caitlyn’s voice filled the space, weaving through the lyrics with a smooth, soulful tone that left Vi breathless.“It’s gonna take me a minute / But I could get used to this / Like every tattoo on your skin / I’m memorizing every inch / I could get used to this.”Vi’s hands trembled as the lyrics wrapped around her, each word hitting deeper than the last. The song seemed to speak directly to her, as if Caitlyn had written it with her in mind. They hadn’t even officially met but it was like Caitlyn was singing this to  her.“Vi, she’s staring at you so f@ck@ng hard!” Powder shouted into her ear, her voice barely cutting through the haze.But Vi barely registered her sister’s words. She was transfixed, her gaze locked with Caitlyn’s. It wasn’t just a glance this time—it was a full, lingering look, one that stretched on for what felt like an eternity. The moment was so intense, so charged, that the world seemed to fall away around them.Vi’s breath caught. Her skin prickled with awareness, and the melody in her head swelled, pounding in time with her racing heart. Everything about this moment felt bigger than her, bigger than both of them. It was as if the universe itself had aligned, revealing a truth that had always been there, just waiting for this precise instant to unfold.The invisible thread between them had tightened, pulling Vi closer to an undeniable conclusion. Caitlyn wasn’t just beautiful, wasn’t just talented. She was  hers.

Caitlyn’s gonna be in shambles. @sheriffcupcake: release the caitvi s@x tape 🔥🔥— @caitscupcakes replied:  dude wtf?  After the show ended, Claggor grabbed Vi’s arm, practically dragging her along with the rest of their siblings, Ekko included. His excitement was contagious as they weaved through the backstage corridors, their passes in hand. When they reached the security checkpoint, the guard gave their passes a quick glance and waved them through with ease.Jayce was waiting just beyond, all smiles as he greeted them. “Right this way,” he said, leading them down a brightly lit hallway to a private lounge. “Cait will be here shortly,” he added before disappearing to handle other business.The room was spacious but buzzing with tension—at least on Vi’s part. She was practically pacing, her boots echoing softly against the tiled floor. Her nerves had her wound so tightly she couldn’t sit still.“Can you, like, chill the f@ck out?” Powder drawled, her attention split between Vi’s fidgeting and the table of food laid out for the staff. She eyed a plate of cupcakes and donuts with an almost predatory focus.“I’m so excited!” Claggor blurted out, his grin wide and uncontainable as he shifted on his feet. His excitement and nerves seemed to have blended into one.Powder rolled her eyes but couldn’t suppress a soft laugh. “You’re such a dweeb.”It didn’t take long for Caitlyn to arrive. When she stepped into the room, the atmosphere seemed to shift immediately. Caitlyn’s face lit up the moment she spotted Vi, her mesmerizing blue eyes locking on her instantly, almost as though no one else existed. She didn’t even take in the others, her attention laser-focused on Vi.Caitlyn was still in her stage outfit, her sequined top catching the light, and her skin glistened with the sweat of her performance. To Vi, she looked utterly breathtaking.“Hey,” Vi said softly, her voice barely above a whisper as they met in the middle of the room, their connection magnetic and undeniable.“Hello, there,” Caitlyn replied, her grin warm and captivating.“Uh, hi?” Powder interrupted loudly, crossing her arms and raising an eyebrow. “There are other people here, you know.”Vi blinked and cleared her throat, awkwardly gesturing toward the group. “Right, uh, sorry. This is my sister, Powder; my brothers, Mylo and Claggor; and Powder’s boyfriend, Ekko. Oh, and Claggor’s your, uh,  biggest fan.”Caitlyn’s gaze shifted to Claggor, who looked like he might combust at any second. She gave him a warm smile. “Oh? Is that so?” Then, turning back to Vi, she added with a teasing glint in her eye, “And are you not a fan, Violet?”The way she said Vi’s name—smooth and playful—sent her brain into overdrive. Vi’s throat went dry as she stumbled over her words. “No! I mean, yeah! I  definitely am. I’m, like… a  huge fan. Totally.”Behind her, Powder and Mylo burst into cackles, their laughter loud enough to make Vi’s ears burn.Caitlyn, however, seemed unfazed. If anything, she looked amused, a smile tugging at her lips. She stepped a little closer, closing the space between them. “Good,” she said softly, her voice low enough that it felt like it was meant just for Vi. “Because I’m a  big fan of yours.”Vi froze, her heart hammering in her chest as Caitlyn’s words sank in.Caitlyn tilted her head slightly, her gaze steady. “After we hang out here for a bit tonight, I’d like to set up something… maybe for tomorrow?”Vi could only nod, her mouth dry and her thoughts spinning. “Yeah,” she finally managed. “I’d like that.”“Just us,” Caitlyn added in a low whisper, her voice hushed enough that only Vi could hear. “And I know the perfect spot.”Vi’s heart skipped a beat, her pulse quickening as the weight of Caitlyn’s words settled over her. She nodded, barely able to breathe as the tension between them grew thick and undeniable.Powder and Mylo were still cackling, the flush on Vi’s face only making it worse. “Holy f@ck,” Powder wheezed. “You’re worse than Claggor.”“I am  not!” Vi snapped, her face crimson as Caitlyn laughed lightly, clearly enjoying the chaos.“Relax, sis,” Mylo chimed in, elbowing Vi with a smirk. “It’s not like she knows you’ve been dreaming about this moment since forever.”Vi whipped around, glaring daggers. “I swear to God—”“Don’t mind them,” Caitlyn interjected smoothly, her attention fully back on Vi as she stepped even closer, her smile soft and almost conspiratorial. “I think it’s adorable and I suppose…  I’ve been dreaming about this moment, too…”Vi’s brain short-circuited.They spent the next half hour chatting as Caitlyn signed posters and indulged Claggor’s endless requests for selfies. He practically bounced on his heels with every photo, unable to stop grinning. Caitlyn even struck a few playful poses, making him laugh.“You’re  so  cool,” Claggor said earnestly, clutching his phone like a lifeline. “I’m, like, your  biggest fan. Your music got me through some really tough times, and I just… I think you’re amazing.”Caitlyn’s expression softened, her genuine fondness shining through. “Thank you, Claggor. That means more to me than you know.”Vi watched the interaction with a small smile, her chest warm as Caitlyn continued to show so much care and kindness to her family.Powder, meanwhile, leaned closer to Vi and whispered, “You’re gonna marry her, aren’t you?”Vi choked on air.When it was time to leave, the group started filing out, but Vi lingered behind, her boots scuffing the floor as she hesitated. She turned back to Caitlyn, her nerves thrumming under her skin. “So… I’ll see you tomorrow?”Caitlyn’s smile brightened, her eyes softening as they locked on Vi’s. “I’ll text you the details, Violet.”“Okay. Alright. Cool,” Vi stammered, nodding way too many times before awkwardly sticking out her hand. “Well, uh, it was nice to meet you…”Caitlyn glanced at her outstretched hand and then back up at Vi, her smile turning playful. Instead of shaking it, she stepped closer, leaning in. Vi barely had time to process what was happening before Caitlyn pressed a soft kiss to her cheek.Vi’s heart practically stopped. She hadn’t even registered that the throbbing in her head had completely gone away as soon as Caitlyn’s lips pressed against her skin.“It was lovely to meet you, darling,” Caitlyn murmured, her lips brushing ever so slightly against Vi’s skin before pulling back. “I’ll see you tomorrow.”With that, Caitlyn turned and left the private lounge, the faint scent of her lingering as she disappeared down the hallway. She was heading off to shed her sticky performance clothes and prepare for whatever tomorrow would bring.Vi stood frozen in place, her cheek burning where Caitlyn’s lips had been. Powder poked her head back into the room, holding a powdered donut she’d swiped from the snack table. “Dude, you’re so f@ck@ng gone for her,” she teased, her voice dripping with glee.Vi didn’t even have it in her to respond. 📍 Levi’s Stadium 🎵  Used to This  • Caitlyn Kiramman📸 Photo from @claggorlanes’s Instagram Profile: Claggor and Caitlyn posing for a silly selfie—he’s practically bear-hugging her, and Caitlyn’s nose is scrunched up from laughing so hard.📝Caption: I’m still starstruck, guys, holy sh@t💬Comments…@clagonmygor: MY POOKIE BEAR@caitvifan:   where are the CAITVI SELFIES?! @cutieclaggs:   I LOVE YOU SO MUCH @ViForViolence: ur so cute bro 😭  @claggorlanes replied to @ViForViolence:   I love you, Vi!  💙  Thank you for making this happen! @CaitKiramman:   It was a pleasure to meet you, Claggor!

  Caitlyn

   Hey, I know of a lovely little spot at the corner of Main Street and 2nd Street. It’s a charming cat café, quite quaint and delightful. Are you allergic, by any chance? 

  Violet

   nah I’m good 

  Caitlyn

   Oh, we can go somewhere else if you’d like? Or do you not want to go at all? 

  Violet

   wait, no! i meant like I’m not allergic. sorry, I didn’t mean I don’t want to go. it sounds like it’d be a lot of fun 

  Caitlyn

   Oh, right. For a second, I thought you weren’t interested. 

  Violet

   no no, i’m definitely interested. cats r cool. coffee’s cool or tea if that’s your thing 

  Caitlyn

   I’m quite partial to tea. Are you free tomorrow afternoon?  

  Violet

   yeah, let’s meet at 1 then? 

  Caitlyn

   See you then! 
 Powder laughed loudly over Vi’s shoulder, leaning in to stare at the screen with an impish grin. The sudden sound made Vi jump slightly, her shoulders tensing.“You are so awkward, sis. What the hell happened to you?” Powder teased, her tone dripping with mockery. “Weren’t you the girl who could, like, literally bag any chick?”Vi’s cheeks flushed a deep shade of red as she turned to glare at her sister. “Hey! She still asked to hang out with me tomorrow, so a win’s a win, Pow,” she retorted, trying to sound confident despite the lingering embarrassment.Powder flicked Vi’s forehead with a mischievous grin, her laughter echoing through the room. “Don’t go sh@tt@ng yourself tomorrow, lady killer,” she teased, her voice dripping with playful sarcasm, before sauntering off to get ready for bed. Vi rolled her eyes, though a small, amused smile tugged at her lips. She wouldn’t embarrass herself tomorrow, obviously.  At least she hoped.  📍 Your Mom’s House 📸 Photo from @ViForViolence’s Instagram Profile: Vi poses for a mirror selfie, rocking a crop top that shows off her abs.

It was undoubtedly Powder’s doing, the whole setup resembling something a mother might do to prepare her child for their first day of elementary school.Vi couldn’t help but laugh, a soft chuckle escaping her as she ran a hand through her messy hair. Shaking her head in amusement, she walked over to inspect Powder’s choice. Vi’s eyes immediately landed on the crop top. Of course. Powder had been on a mission lately to get her to wear them more often, constantly teasing her with comments like, “If you wanna get the girl, you’ve gotta show off more than just your biceps.” Draped over the crop top was a red flannel, clearly meant to go over it. The outfit was completed with a pair of ripped jeans and her signature boots, the ones she practically lived in. She decided to swap the crop top for a plain white tank instead. The tank top was a bit old and snug, but it worked—its tight fit also highlighted her abs. Sure, Powder might give her grief for not following her genius “plan,” but she had already worn one to the concert and she wasn’t sure wearing one to a café full of cats would be the best idea. She knew she told Cait she wasn’t allergic to cats but what if she actually was? She hadn’t ever technically been around one long enough to find out. She just hoped today wouldn’t be the day.The pink-haired girl stood in front of the mirror, adjusting her outfit before turning her attention to her hair. Usually, she let it stay messy—it suited her. But today felt different. For once, Vi decided to slick back the longer part of her hair, carefully running her fingers through it until it looked just right. The last time she’d styled her hair like this, she was just sixteen. Vi snapped a mirror selfie, flashing a charming grin that showed off her carefully put-together date outfit. She sent it to the group chat with a quick text:
  Vi

   alright, i’m ready. no comments from the peanut gallery. 
As expected, the chaos began almost instantly.
  Claggs

   Peanut gallery? Please, this is VIP commentary. First off: ABS. Secondly: LEGEND. 

  Pow-Pow

   oh my GOD. who r u trying to impress, the queen of piltover? wait, don’t answer that… 

  Little Man
 You should totally spill something on your tank ;) Works on Powder every time.  Vi grimaced at Ekko’s message. She really would rather not know what works on her little sister. 
  The Annoying One

   she looks like she’s about to bench-press caitlyn at the mfing cat café 

  Claggs
 And she could. Absolute legend behavior 🔥
  Pow-Pow

   ok but srsly, who r u and what have u done with my disaster sister? u actually look decent, even if u decided not to wear that crop top😒 

  The Annoying One

   decent? nah she looks like she walked out of a gay thirst trap calendar 

  Claggs

   That’s a compliment, by the way. I can see you being the sexy firefighter for the month of June. 
Pow-Pow 
   not from mylo it isn’t. 

  Claggs

   I feel like I’m watching history happen. This is romance in the making, people. Caitlyn Kiramman deserves nothing but the best.  

  Pow-Pow

   romance or disaster, TBD. 

  Little Man

   You’ll do great, Vi. You got this. 
Vi rolled her eyes, a smirk tugging at her lips as she typed back:
  Vi

   you’re all the worst. i’m never sending you anything again. BTW, thank you, little man and thanks for the hype, claggs. 

  Pow-Pow

   yeah, yeah. now go make caitlyn fall in love with u, casanova. 

  The Annoying One

   bet five bucks she trips over her own boots and spills a drink on caitlyn 

  The Annoying One

   scratch that, she’ll trip over some pussssaaaayyyys  

   Pow-Pow removed The Annoying One from the group. 
 Vi arrived early, pacing outside for a moment before deciding—yes, she seriously needed to calm down. Rolling her shoulders, she took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and finally stepped inside—only to be immediately ambushed by cats.Of course, it’s cats. What else would she expect at a cat café?One particularly bold feline, a sleek Russian Blue, had its sights set on a target. With surgical precision, it launched itself onto the counter, swiped a pastry straight off a customer’s plate, and, in a display of acrobatics that defied all logic, leapt through the air—landing squarely on Vi’s shoulder like a trained assassin making a perfect getaway.Vi barely had time to react before the cat, now comfortably perched atop her, sank its teeth into its stolen prize, chewing with an expression of pure, smug satisfaction.Slowly, Vi turned her head, meeting the cat’s unbothered gaze. “You serious right now, bud?” she muttered, one brow arching.The cat, utterly indifferent, flicked its tail against her cheek and kept munching, as if this was just another Tuesday. Which, for the cat, it probably was.Right at that moment, Caitlyn strolled in, humming a tune that would’ve been extremely familiar to Vi if the girl was paying attention. The pop star barely made it two steps inside before stopping short, taking in the sight of Vi, stiff as a board, with a smug-looking Russian Blue perched on her shoulder. Caitlyn’s perfectly arched brow lifted. “I see you’ve made a friend.”Vi, still standing there like a human scratching post, cleared her throat. “Uh… yeah. Me and—uh…”The barista, barely looking up from the espresso machine, snorted. “That’s Pickles. He  usually likes… taller people.”Vi frowned, trying not to be too offended. “I  am tall.” 
   Yeah, maybe in comparison to Powder. 
Caitlyn hummed, giving her an obviously amused once-over. “Oh, darling… how do I put this?”Vi narrowed her silvery eyes. “Tread very carefully, Kiramman.”Before Caitlyn could respond, Pickles suddenly leapt off Vi’s shoulder—only to land gracefully in Caitlyn’s arms, like he’d been waiting for her all along.Vi watched in pure betrayal as the little traitor purred like a motor, rubbing against Caitlyn as if they’d been inseparable for years.Caitlyn smirked down at her, adjusting Pickles in her long arms with practiced ease. “Oh, I see. He was just waiting for someone…  actually tall.”Vi gaped. “I am—You—Oh, screw you.”Caitlyn chuckled, scratching Pickles behind the ears. “Jealous?”Vi crossed her toned arms, grumbling, “Of the cat or you?”Caitlyn grinned, her tooth gap on display for Vi’s begrudgingly adoring eyes. “Yes.”Vi rolled her eyes, shoving her hands in her jean pockets. “Dunno, Cupcake. Guess you’ll have to stick around and find out.”Caitlyn’s grin only grew wider at her words as she carried Pickles along, leading Vi toward a quiet corner booth.As soon as Vi sat down, a particularly chubby orange cat, with a round belly and fluffy fur, jumped into her lap, rubbing against her stomach with a soft purr. Vi chuckled, gently petting the cat before turning her attention back to Caitlyn. “So, does this one happen to prefer people who are, say,  5’7 and three-quarters?” She flashed Caitlyn a sideways grin.Caitlyn laughed, her eyes sparkling. “You could just say shorter people, Violet,” she teased, her voice laced with amusement.Vi crossed her arms, still grinning. “Hey, that’s not fair, Cupcake. You’re practically a skyscraper compared to the rest of us.” The orange cat, now nestled against her chest, purred contentedly before once again rubbing against her stomach.Caitlyn raised an eyebrow, her lips curling into a sly smile. “Hmm, maybe it just prefers people with, you know, a bit of muscle.”Vi’s eyes went wide with mock indignation. “A bit?  A bit?!” she exclaimed, throwing her hands up in disbelief. Without missing a beat, she began to shrug off her flannel, draping it across the back of the booth.Caitlyn giggled at Vi’s antics while Pickles hopped up onto the table, making his way over to the orange cat.Vi smirked, raising an eyebrow. “Oh, I see what you’re doing, Kiramman. This is your clever little scheme to get me to flaunt these, huh?” She flexed one arm with exaggerated confidence, the playful challenge clear in her eyes.Caitlyn’s grin stretched wider as she watched Vi’s flex, her amusement clear. “Or maybe this is your subtle way of trying to impress me?” she teased, her voice light but filled with a knowing edge.Vi leaned back, hands casually resting behind her head, showing off her biceps as she did. “Alright, maybe. But, y’know, just trying to live up to the  high standards around here,” she replied, her tone playful as she threw Caitlyn an exaggerated wink.Caitlyn chuckled, shaking her head. “I think it’s cute that you think you have to impress me, Violet,” she said, her gaze lingering on Vi’s confident posture. “I’ve been impressed since the first time I saw you.” It was true, although they had never met in person before, they had followed each other on social media for quite a few years, always liking each other’s posts and interacting.The shorter woman nearly spluttered at Caitlyn’s response, her cheeks flushing a soft pink just as the server from the café approached their table.Caitlyn couldn’t help but giggle softly to herself as she watched the range of expressions flicker across Vi’s face. The girl was clearly used to being the one in control during dates with others, always the confident one, always in charge. But every time Caitlyn dropped even the slightest flirty remark, Vi would freeze, a mix of surprise and nervousness flashing across her features. She had done the same thing backstage at the concert last night.Powder had been right all along—Vi wasn’t usually like this, but Caitlyn seemed to have that effect on her. The way she made Vi stumble over her words, pause mid-sentence, or even blush so easily, it was something Caitlyn found absolutely adorable. There was something so endearing about seeing the usually confident Vi Lanes caught off guard in such a charming way. “I’ll, uh, have the tea. The, uh… chamomile, no… maybe jasmine. I’ve had jasmine tea before. That’s… normal, right?” Vi’s voice wavered slightly as she glanced at the barista, looking for some reassurance.Caitlyn, with a twinkle of amusement in her eyes, confidently ordered her usual—Earl Grey. The barista nodded and quickly went to prepare their drinks.Vi leaned back, attempting to look calm and composed, but her nervous fidgeting gave her away. She couldn’t help but glance over at Caitlyn, who sat across from her, effortlessly adjusting her hair and looking every bit the picture of beauty and grace. Pickles, purring contentedly, curled up in Caitlyn’s lap, further highlighting her relaxed elegance. Caitlyn giggled softly as she scratched behind the cat’s ears.Their tea arrived quickly, and Vi tried her best to play it cool, lifting the delicate teacup with the poise of someone who had done it a hundred times before. She brought it to her lips, determined to appear sophisticated, but as soon as she took a big sip, her face contorted. The overly floral taste immediately assaulted her senses.It was like drinking perfume. The tea was far too fancy for her. Vi quickly set the cup back down, hoping Caitlyn hadn’t noticed her horrified expression.But of course, Caitlyn noticed. She tilted her head, a knowing smirk forming on her lips as her eyes sparkled with amusement. “I take it you’re not a fan of jasmine?”Vi forced a tight smile, scrambling to maintain her air of confidence. “Nope! Absolutely love it. It’s… it’s great. Really. I just adore the whole, you know, delicate, floral vibe. Very zen.”Caitlyn raised an eyebrow, clearly unconvinced, and leaned back in her chair, swirling her own tea as she watched Vi with a mixture of amusement and curiosity. “Oh really? Because you look like you’re about to gag, darling.”Vi gritted her teeth, cursing herself silently for trying to impress Caitlyn with something so… refined when she could’ve just ordered her usual coffee. She reached for the spoon, stirring the tea vigorously, as though she could somehow turn it into something more bearable. “No, really! I’m fine. I just need a minute to get used to it. I’ll… I’ll get used to it, mhmm.”Caitlyn, now thoroughly entertained, leaned in with a teasing smirk. “Would you like some sugar? Or perhaps something a little more… palatable, Miss Lanes?” She took a leisurely sip of her own drink, clearly relishing the sight of Vi’s struggle.The rock star, ever stubborn, straightened up and took another sip, her face betraying her discomfort but her voice firm. “Nope. No sugar needed. I’m fine. Absolutely fine. This is… just what I needed.”Caitlyn chuckled softly, her eyes lighting up with amusement at Vi’s increasingly desperate attempts to keep her composure. “Are you sure? Because if you need something stronger, I could always suggest a nice… coffee?”Vi slapped on a strained grin, her voice a little too high-pitched. “Tea’s great. Very… sophisticated. You know, I’m just getting in touch with my more… elegant side.”Caitlyn couldn’t hold back any longer. She burst out laughing, her grin stretching from ear to ear as she shook her head. “Oh, I’m sure you are. Very elegant indeed.”Vi finally cracked, laughing at the absurdity of it all. “Okay, okay, fine. Maybe I’m not cut out for this whole ‘refined’ thing. Next time, I’m ordering a coffee.”Caitlyn chuckled, her voice soft and teasing. “We’ll see. But for now, if you want to get through that cup, I can always show you the proper way to drink tea.” 📍 Purrfect Brews 📸 Photo from @ViForViolence’s Instagram Profile: Vi poses in the booth, holding her teacup like a true connoisseur with her pinky raised and a playful pout on her lips.

Vi had managed to (mostly) keep her cool, the conversation flowed naturally, and—perhaps most importantly—she hadn’t tripped over her own feet yet, even if she was sitting down. A solid performance all around.Which, of course, meant disaster was lurking just around the corner.She was mid-story—some absurd, Powder-induced childhood mischief—when she got a little too into it. Hands waving, voice animated, completely lost in the moment.And then—
  WHAM.
Her elbow clipped the edge of the table, sending Caitlyn’s tea careening toward disaster.Vi’s heart stopped.Caitlyn, however, didn’t even blink. With almost insulting ease, she lifted her cup just as the liquid sloshed dangerously over the rim, narrowly avoiding a full-scale catastrophe.Vi could only blink.  D@mn. Caitlyn took a slow, deliberate sip before setting it back down, a smug little smirk playing on her lips. “For someone who brags about their fast reflexes, you do seem to be a bit… clumsy.”Vi groaned, dragging a hand down her face. “This is your fault for being distracting.”Which, okay, yeah, Caitlyn was distractingly gorgeous, but  really—it was because Vi was a complete idiot who apparently forgot how to function whenever she got too caught up in a story.Caitlyn’s smirk only deepened. “Am I now?”Vi opened her mouth, ready to argue, only to promptly shut it. There was no winning this one. Not when Caitlyn’s blue eyes were twinkling with the kind of mischief that made Vi’s stomach do entirely too many flips.After a while, the café had started to quiet down, the late afternoon lull settling in. They had stayed a lot longer than they had both expected and surprisingly no fans or paparazzi had bothered them at this little café. The air between them had shifted too—less teasing, more comfortable silences between easy conversation. Vi had stopped overthinking things somewhere between Cait’s second cup of tea, her own first cup of actual coffee and watching Caitlyn effortlessly win over every cat in the place.She was still  mildly bitter about that.Pickles, the Russian Blue menace that had ignored Vi all afternoon, had lounged happily in Caitlyn’s lap for what felt like hours, purring in pure contentment. Vi had tried everything—outstretching her hand, bribing with treats, even making the pspsps noise Powder swore was a universal cheat code—but nothing worked. It didn’t help that the moment Caitlyn sat down from her most recent bathroom break, the orange haired cat that was originally attached to Vi had climbed right into Caitlyn's lap, replacing Pickles like he belonged there from the beginning. Vi had squinted at the furry traitor, “You too, Chunks?” Vi wasn’t trying to be a bully, according to the barista, that was  actually his name.Caitlyn smirked as she idly scratched behind Chunks’s ear. “Don’t take it personally, Vi. Animals just have excellent judgment.”Vi scoffed. “So what, now you’re the queen of Piltover  and the cats?”Caitlyn gave her a look far too smug for Vi’s liking. “It  does seem that way, doesn’t it?”Vi had grumbled but—predictably—found herself grinning anyway. She could never actually be mad at that ridiculously pretty face.They had such a good time that, for once, Vi completely forgot about the whole melody dilemma. The tune still lingered in the back of her mind, soft and persistent, but now that she knew it was Caitlyn’s song, it no longer clawed at her thoughts or sent sharp pangs through her skull. It was just… there, playing quietly like background noise rather than an unbearable intrusion. It was actually pleasant.She knew she’d have to bring it up eventually—to ask Caitlyn outright about the song and what it could mean for them—but now didn’t feel like the right moment. Besides, what if she was wrong? What if this whole thing was just a coincidence, and Caitlyn wasn’t her soulmate? What if she got screwed and this whole thing was one-sided and Caitlyn didn’t have a melody repeating in her head like Vi did? Vi huffed at the thought, rubbing the bridge of her nose.  God, imagine if she was just a complete idiot about this?  Maybe she really should’ve asked Powder for advice. She technically did discover Ekko was her soulmate with relative ease.As they stepped outside, Vi shoved her hands into her pockets, rocking slightly on her heels. She should just say goodbye, maybe throw in a casual “Let’s do this again sometime” but before her brain could stop her, her mouth got ahead of her.“Wanna come back to my place?”Caitlyn blinked once, then arched a perfectly sculpted brow. “My, my. Forward, are we?”Vi immediately regretted everything. “I meant—I just—not like that, obviously, just, you know—” She groaned, rubbing the back of her neck. “Look, I’m just saying, if you’re not sick of me yet, we could keep hanging out.”Caitlyn made a small, thoughtful sound, as if actually weighing her options. “Are you inviting me over for a nightcap, or are we continuing our cat café experience?”Vi smirked, latching onto the joke like a lifeline. “Depends. How do you feel about strays?”Caitlyn hummed, pretending to consider. “Well, that does depend…”Vi raised a brow. “On what?”Caitlyn’s lips twitched. “Is this stray house-trained, or am I going to have to deal with messes?”Vi snorted. “Define ‘messes.’”Caitlyn crossed her arms, giving her a pointed look. “Do you know how to use coasters, Vi?”Vi gasped, clutching her chest in mock offense. “Wow. That’s a bold accusation.”Caitlyn arched her brow. “So that’s a no, then.”Vi grinned. “Listen, if you want fancy coaster etiquette, maybe you should be going on a date with a rich Piltie instead of a charming, roguish stray.”Caitlyn tilted her head, a slow teasing smirk creeping onto her lips. “Charming? Debatable.”Vi huffed, nudging her playfully with her elbow. “Alright, Cupcake, are you coming or not?”Caitlyn let the moment stretch just long enough to make Vi sweat before finally nodding. “Lead the way, Vi.”Vi paused and held out her hand for Caitlyn. The taller girl looked down and with an uncharacteristic shy smile, grasped it, intertwining their fingers.She tried not to feel  too smug as she turned toward home, but with Caitlyn beside her, she couldn’t quite keep the grin off her face.She also threw in a challenge for good measure. “Oh, and once we get there, I finally get to show you what a real Mario Kart champion looks like.”Caitlyn let out a soft laugh, shaking her head. “Vi, please—I know you’re the type to spam blue shells out of sheer spite.”Vi gasped. “How dare you. I am a  respectable racer.”Caitlyn shot her a knowing look. “Mhm. We’ll see about that.”Vi smirked.  Oh, she was so gonna make Cait eat her words.

Instead, she had been absolutely demolished—four times in a row. And now, as they lined up for their fifth race, Vi was more determined than ever to finally take a win.She played aggressively, took every shortcut she could find, and even held onto a red shell like it was her last lifeline. But when the results screen popped up, her heart sank.  Third place.Not even second.  Third.A CPU had beaten her.Meanwhile, Caitlyn, the undefeated reigning champion, had crossed the finish line in first place yet again, looking as effortlessly smug as ever.Vi groaned, flopping back against the couch in dramatic defeat. “This is  ridiculous. How are you so good at this?”Caitlyn simply shrugged, barely holding back a victorious smirk. “Perhaps you’re just not as skilled as you claim, darling.”Vi scowled, pointing at the screen. “The computer  placed higher than me, Cait.  A bot. I lost to  a bot.”Caitlyn giggled, tucking her legs beneath her as she set her blue joy-con down, her eyes bright with amusement. Vi should have been sulking over her loss, but honestly? If this was the result—Caitlyn’s laughter ringing through her penthouse, that beaming, victorious smile lighting up her face—she really didn’t mind losing.Later on after a couple drinks and snacks, the evening had settled into a comfortable lull, the earlier teasing about Mario Kart losses fading into easy silence. They were picking out a movie to watch together. Vi got comfortable next to Cait on the couch, Caitlyn picking a sweet rom-com from Vi’s DVD collection which seemed very on brand.And then—A melody.Soft, absentminded, but unmistakable.Vi’s entire body stiffened. She knew that melody.It was her song. The one she’d written months ago, the one her band had been working on but hadn’t released yet. The one no one outside their circle should know.Her head snapped towards Caitlyn. “What… what are you humming?”Caitlyn blinked, clearly caught off guard. “Oh, I don’t know,” she said lightly. “It’s just something that’s been stuck in my head for a few days now. No idea where it’s from.” She hummed a few more notes as if trying to place it, completely unaware of the way Vi was staring at her like she’d grown a second head.Vi’s heart pounded. This wasn’t possible. How does she know that? “That song,” Vi said slowly, sitting up straight. “Where did you hear it?”Caitlyn frowned slightly. “I don’t know,” she admitted. “It’s just… always been there, I guess. It comes and goes, but it’s never left.”Vi’s mouth went dry.Because that’s exactly how she had felt about Caitlyn’s song.Her  soulmate’s song.Her pulse thundered in her ears as realization hit her like a freight train.“Cait,” she said carefully, leaning forward. “Hum it again.”Caitlyn gave her a curious look but obliged, and the second those notes left her lips, Vi felt her world tilt on its axis.It was real. It was  hers.And that could only mean one thing.Vi swallowed hard, her throat suddenly dry. “Caitlyn,” she murmured, barely above a whisper.The pop star tilted her head. “Yes?”Vi could barely breathe. She ran a hand through her hair, trying to steady herself, but there was no stopping the way her chest tightened, the way her whole world seemed to shift and settle into place all at once.She met Caitlyn’s gaze, and for the first time since this whole soulmate mess started, she wasn’t scared.“…You’re hearing  my song.”“Your song?”Vi nodded, still struggling to wrap her head around the fact that Caitlyn was humming something Vi had written, something her band had only barely begun to put together. “Yeah. My song. My band’s. It’s not out. We haven’t even recorded it properly yet.”There was a flicker of recognition in Caitlyn’s eyes, as if the realization was starting to click. Her gaze softened, and she whispered, almost to herself, “You… you’re my soulmate, aren’t you?” Her voice was laced with wonder as she turned to face Vi more fully on the couch.Vi’s heart skipped a beat. She swallowed nervously, feeling the weight of the moment settle between them. “Yeah, I’m pretty sure,” she replied softly, a gentle smile tugging at her lips. “I’ve been hearing your song… the one you released last night. I had no idea what it was at first, but when I heard it at the concert… I was shocked.”Caitlyn fell silent for a beat, her expression unreadable. Vi’s stomach tightened with a sudden, nervous uncertainty, wondering if she had said the wrong thing, if the moment had somehow shifted.Then, without warning, Caitlyn shifted. She slid gracefully onto Vi’s lap, her warm weight settling against her, and Vi’s eyes widened in surprise. Her hands instinctively moved to steady Caitlyn by her hips, though the action felt completely natural.“Cait, what—?” Vi’s voice caught in her throat, and before she could finish, Caitlyn cut her off, her expression determined.“I’ve been waiting for you to kiss me all night, Violet,” she said with a mischievous glint in her eyes. “Now I have an excuse to do it myself.”And with that, Caitlyn leaned down, her lips capturing Vi’s in a kiss that was gentle but filled with unspoken promise. Vi’s mind went blank, her heart racing as she finally let herself fall into the kiss, feeling everything—the connection, the electricity, the culmination of all the moments leading up to this one.It was absolutely perfect.As soon as their lips touched, everything changed. Both melodies that had been playing non stop in the back of their minds—both of them hearing it, both of them unknowingly connected by it—suddenly ceased. It was as if the world itself had paused, the rhythm that had bound them together now falling silent. For the first time in what felt like forever, there was stillness.It was as though their brains and their hearts had finally caught up, fully realizing what they had been inching toward all along. In that single moment, they both understood. They were it for each other. They belonged to one another in a way nothing could break. The connection, the pull, those melodies—it all made sense now. And it was perfect.Vi pulled back just slightly, her forehead resting against Caitlyn’s, both of them breathless, their hearts syncing in a way they couldn’t quite explain. “Were you going to make me wait all night, Miss Lanes?” Caitlyn teased, her voice breathless, her smile playful as she pulled back just enough to catch her breath.Vi, caught off guard by the question, found herself at a loss for words. Instead of a clever retort, she simply gazed up at Caitlyn with her wide powder blue eyes, still in awe of the moment, of the realization that this—this—was what they were meant for. Without thinking, she pulled Caitlyn back down into another kiss, this one deeper, slower, and filled with all the things she couldn’t put into words. The perfect response to the question, to the realization of who they were to each other.
  Soulmates.
