FILL: Baby It's Fate, Not Luck (1/5) - AU: Soulmates--Kurt/Blaine, shootingsynia09January 9 2012, 19:43:25 UTC
A/N: I couldn't resist this prompt but if anyone wants to fill it again please do, there's never enough soulmates Klaine as far as I'm concerned. :) This is my first fill here so I hope it doesn't disappoint. Title from the song 'Penguin' by Christina Perri, because I was listening to my Klaine playlist for inspiration and it fit so well.
Kurt always thought dying involved a lot of darkness and silence. He didn't believe in god or an afterlife and had secretly always hoped to go quick and without too much pain, but then again who didn't? A quick snap into nothingness would be only merciful.
People always wondered how he could be so cynic when fate was clearly written right on their skin for everyone to see. While it was uncommon for people to be born with the Name of their soul mate on their hand - most developed it with age - it was almost unheard of for someone to die before meeting their other half. After all the Name only developed if you were destined to meet them.
Kurt was convinced fate was utterly cruel. Fate dared to tell you whether you'd be alone for the rest of your life or not. Fate could rip away that special someone from you in a heartbeat. Fate could make you one of those rare tales people only tell in terrified whispers, leaving you to wait for someone that would never come.
Kurt had lived in fear of never having that someone until at the age of sixteen he'd woken up one morning to find the name Blaine Anderson written across his left palm. He had looked at it for a long time, caressing every line with his fingers, memorizing it. He'd placed a light kiss on the Name and held it to his heart, whispering it over and over until it was as familiar as his own. Life wasn't good back then but he finally had a reason to go on.
When his bullying escalated to death threats Kurt wished desperately that the Name really meant he would survive this hell. He couldn't let Blaine become one of those stories, waiting hopelessly for Kurt.
But Kurt rarely got what he wished for.
A truth he was rudely reminded of by the excruciating amount of pain he was currently in. His death was apparently going to involve a lot of pain. He was also wrong on the darkness, there was so much light and everything was so white and blurry he could barely stand it. He was right about one thing though, fate was cruel.

Rachel was one of those lucky few who were born with the Name already on their palm. She always said it was because fate knew exactly what it had in store for her, she was to become a Broadway star and live happily ever after with Finn. Ever since she'd met him she had pursued him like she did everything, relentlessly. Finn had refused to believe her until her name had showed up on his hand during their sophomore year of high school. To this day he still fondly joked that it only showed because she willed it to with her insistence. Kurt had never heard of a case like theirs before but he considered it only further proof of how fate could be tricky and unreliable.
Finn and Kurt had become stepbrothers in the beginning of their junior year, after a chance meeting between their parents who had both lost their soul mates. Kurt had introduced them thinking a friendship with someone who could understand his sorrow would be beneficial to his father but he hadn't expected the two to actually start dating and fall in love. To Kurt it was a comfort to see there still could be love and life after such a tragic loss.
