(prompt: you and your soulmate have ur natural colors, but whenever they dye their hair, your hair changes too & vice-versa. it reverts once your soulmate returns to their original hair color) 

You wake up to a series of laughs and snorts, which you wouldn't have minded if it wasn't 6 AM - but unfortunately, it is. She has morning classes, and normally keeps to herself so that she doesn't wake you, leaving you a note if she had something to tell you. What could possibly be so funny at this time? 

"Shut up Hitoka, please.

"I tried - still am. Just look at yourself." 

"I already know how hideous I am in the mornings, no need." You bury yourself further into your cocoon of blankets, warmth enveloping you. The sheets are pried off seconds later, a breeze rolling over your body, sending chills throughout your body. "Why are you torturing me like this? I don't have classes today."  

"That's great. Then no one would see your unfortunate appearance. I mean, it looks okay. No one but you could pull off pink hair." 

That catches your attention, because now you're sitting upright, hands flying to your previously (H/C) locks. The pale pinkness of your newly dyed hair shines beneath the lighting of your dorm room, Hitoka smiling cheekily at you. "Told you," she shrugs, slinging her bag over her shoulder. "Good luck!" She calls, slipping on her shoes and exiting the dorm. 

Letting out a long sigh, you flop back onto your bed, pulling the sheets up to your neck. 

[6:50 AM] (f/n)

[7:00 AM] hinata
too late im in the lobby 

You emerge into the lobby bearing a baseball cap, hair in a ponytail and looped through it. Kageyama and Hinata are busying themselves with a game of pool on their phones, and both break out into a fit of laughter as you approach. 

"On the bright side," Kageyama smirks, throwing an arm over your shoulder and removing your hat, "It'll be easy to spot your soulmate, since they're sporting the same unfortunate color." He holds the cap out of your reach, placing it backwards on his own head. 

"Asshole. You're just lucky Hinata only dyed a section of his head." He grins, because he was lucky, he was there when Hinata dyed it. His hair immediately began to fade to the color Hinata had chosen, and upon realizing, Hinata requested for them to remove it. 

-

What you thought was a one-time thing became a pattern. Your soulmate would dye their hair a color and it would fade out over a couple of months, and once your hair was restored to it's original color, a few days later, it would be something different. It started with pale pink to mint green, to strawberry red and electric blue. Currently, it's pastel blue. 

Honestly, you just wondered how your soulmate could afford to dye it so often, and how dead their hair must be. In the back of your mind, you were still angry at how difficult the colors have been to deal with, career-wise. It was hard to land an internship at a facility if your hair was pastel pink, and it's hard to take a student lecturer seriously if the person giving the lecture has mint green hair. 

"Why don't you dye your hair too? Y'know, give them the fright of their life," Kageyama suggests, and that's how you find yourself at a high-end salon, with the hopes of dying your hair pastel purple. You enter the salon, and you're immediately led to a chair. You show a few reference pictures to the stylist, and she goes to work. 

You're sitting beneath the dryer, waiting for the dye to settle into your hair when a group of males enter, hats over messy hair and masks covering their bare faces. They glance over at you before being led to chairs, where the stylists go to work on their makeup and hair. 

[3:32 PM] (f/n)
the salon u recc'd is an IDOL salon????????? 

[3:33 PM] hinata
well yea 
i wouldnt let you dye your hair at a cheap salon run by an auntie would i

[3:34 PM] (f/n) 
well i hope ur ready to pay for this fatass bill!!! 

"Are you kidding me?!" A voice groans from the seat closest to you, the male's hands grasping at his fading locks. His hair is a familiar shade of blue, but seconds later it fades. 

To pastel purple.

The timer on your dryer beeps, and a stylist makes her way over to you, pushing the dryer up and out of her way. She begins to remove the foil, piece by piece, and your previously blue locks are now a pastel purple - a perfect match, to the male beside you. 

His eyes meet yours in the mirrors you're facing, his mouth agape. The other members are silenced too, as well as the dumbfounded manager sitting in the lounge. He clears his throat, breaking eye contact. 

"Manager, can we... She and I... Talk in private?" He nods, mentioning something about a backroom, and you're whisked away by the male, him leading you to a room that resembled a dressing room. He gestures for you to sit on one of the various chairs, similar to the ones out in the front, and sits parallel to you. 

"We're soulmates," he states, and you nod slowly, drinking in his appearance. Never in your life did you think that your soulmate would be an idol, but with the constantly changing hair, it makes sense. A doctor or lawyer wouldn't make it their aspiration to dye their hair every color of the rainbow, after all. 

His eyes are soft as they study you, and a small smile crosses his face as he observes your hair, a hand subconsciously running through his own. 

"I'm glad my soulmate's as attractive as me," he says jokingly, and you roll your eyes and cross your arms. 

"That may as well be an insult to you, because I'm pretty average. I mean, I was, until you became a chameleon. It wasn't fun walking around campus looking like a human highlighter." 

"I have no control over that," he points out, "so we're in the same boat. My manager will probably work something out, knowing our situation."

"Won't it be difficult for fans to accept that you've found your soulmate?" His eyes widen then shut, and he covers his face with a palm. "Sorry, I shouldn't have said anything."

"No, it's okay. It might be difficult, but we're soulmates. Even though we've just met, I'm not going to put you last on my list of priorities. Lets just focus on getting to know each other, okay? My name's Oikawa Tooru."

"(L/N) (F/N)."

"Wanna grab dinner later?" 

-

"Every time I dyed my hair, I kind of felt bad for my soulmate - you - but I also found myself searching crowds for the similar color," he admits, handing you a cup of hot chocolate. "I guess in a way, it made it a lot easier to find you." 

A camera shutter and flash temporarily shocks you, a girl with a large camera in hand standing outside the cafe you and Tooru were seated in. 

"Should we go? I don't want to cause unnecessary rumors about you or your group." He places his hand over yours and shakes his head, squeezing it reassuringly. 

"Nothing's wrong. I met my soulmate, and I want to know her. Is that bad? I mean, I am Oikawa Tooru, but I'm not not going to show you off."

"I mean, I could have easily just dyed my hair to match yours, like some sort of crazy fan." 

"Chill out."

He drops you back off at your dorm, not forgetting to input his personal number into your phone, and leaves you with a kiss on your forehead. 

The next morning, headlines read: 
Oikawa Tooru Finds His Soulmate?! 
Oikawa Tooru Spotted w/ a MYSTERY GIRL! 

However, the only article you bother to click is the official company statement, regarding Tooru. 

It is true that Oikawa Tooru, a member of the group AJ has found his soulmate and was spotted on a date with said person. We ask of the fans to offer their full support for their blossoming relationship, and that respect and privacy is given to them. We hope this does not affect your view of the group.

[+213, -2] the cutest! i will FIGHT anyone who tries to say otherwise 

[+98, -0] As fans, we will love her as much as Tooru does. 

-

You awake once more to laughter, nostalgic to the very first day Tooru cursed you with pink locks. This time, however, it's not Hitoka's laughter that awakens you, but Tooru's.

You reach over to your phone, propped up against your textbooks on your nightstand. Your Skype call is over 18 hours long, and for half of that time you were asleep, accompanying Oikawa at dance and vocal practice. 

"5 more minutes, please." 

"No! I just got finished at the salon, and I'm bored." 

"You're probably just looking at yourself anyway, that always entertains you," you point out, eyes closing once more, the warmth of your bed ever-so welcoming. 

"I always like the view of myself, sweet cheeks, but you take the cake." 

"What did you do to my hair this time?" 

"Nothing!" 

You scoff. 

"Well, if you bothered to open your eyes to look in the mirror, you will notice that your hair is restored to its natural color, thanks to me~ And since you won't turn the lights in your dorm on, I'm on my way up to admire you first-hand."
