A popular story is that soulmates have shared past lives and are reuniting in this life to fulfill an unfinished journey. Another one is that they are created specifically for each other by a higher power and their paths are guided towards one another.
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. It's a story of two teenagers, Hazel and Gus, who meet at a cancer support group.

Popular plotlines often involve Hermione being the one to truly understand Regulus's motives and redeem him in a way. There could be a plot where they are fated to be together to bring about a change in the wizarding world's future. Some stories also have a plotline where their soulmate bond is initially blocked by some dark magic or a curse, and they have to work together to break it.

Well, there are quite a few out there. For instance, some fanfictions focus on the backstories of the main characters in Star Control Origins. They might expand on how a character came to be in their current position, like a story about the origin of the captain of a particular ship. Others could be about alternative timelines. Imagine a story where a key battle was lost instead of won, and how that changes the entire universe. And then there are those that introduce entirely new planets and species that interact with the existing ones in unique ways.
The origins of these stories are diverse. 'The Werewolf of Fever Swamp' could be inspired by ancient beliefs in shape - shifters. In many cultures, there were tales of humans turning into animals. The idea of a haunted house, like in 'The Haunted House' story, might come from the fact that old, abandoned buildings often seem spooky. People used to think that spirits of the dead or other entities might inhabit these places. 'The Doll in the Attic' might be related to the uncanny valley concept. Dolls that look almost human but not quite can be very disturbing, and this has been incorporated into spooky stories over time.
Well, sometimes in these fanfictions, a plotline could be that their soulmate connection is revealed through a shared dream or vision. They start to communicate in this dream realm and gradually fall in love. Also, there are stories where they are forced to work together on a special project by the Hogwarts faculty because of their unique soulmate bond. This forces them to interact and understand each other better, despite their initial differences.

One characteristic is a deep understanding. In many soulmates novel books, the characters just seem to 'get' each other without much explanation.

Like in 'Twilight', Bella and Edward have this bond that no matter what difficulties come their way, they are drawn to each other.
