(Sollux’s POV)

I woke up to Mituna writing around like a child in hell. “Mituna” I moaned shaking him. Nothing worked no matter how many times I shouted his name یا how hard I shook him. I just sighed and turned on the light. He sat upright in بستر breathing deeply. Sure that wakes him up. “I’th time to go to thcool” I کہا pulling off my pj shirt. “-god” I heard Mituna mutter under his breath. “What?” I asked with a raised eyebrow. “Nothing!” He کہا rather loudly. I shook my head and finished getting dressed. “Tholluxth, can I thtay ہوم today?” He asked wrapped his arms around me. No, he’s not playing the cuteness game with me, I will beat him. “But if آپ thtay…then I’ll be alone” I کہا with a fake sniffle. “Hey, don’t cry, you’ll have…Kar..KarKitten..Karkitty..karpu-“ KarKat” I cut him off knowing where the اگلے one was going. “Yeah that douche” He said. I nuzzled his chest, “But I won’t have you.” “Tholluxth…fine” He sighed. I smiled and went to kiss his cheek, but he accidently turned his head and our lips met. We both pulled away quickly, me trying to hide my blush. I ran out of the room. “Tholluxth? I’m thorry” I heard Mituna. I ran out the front door all the way to school. I sat on the steps outside the school. Did I actually like that one sweet moment..? No, I couldn’t, I wasn’t allowed to.

“Hey motherfucker, what are آپ all up and sitting alone out here for” Gamzee کہا sitting beside me. “I..i accidently kithed Mituna” I کہا blushing again. “Bro if it were an accident, آپ wouldn’t be getting’ آپ motherfucking blush on that god damn much, honk” Gamzee said. “Thut up” I کہا lightly punching at his arm. “Look, there’s your catch of the دن now” He کہا pointing at Mituna walking towards the school. سے طرف کی the time I looked back at him he was gone. “Fucker” I muttered. “Tholluxth?” I hear Mituna. I looked back at Mituna, damn he walks fast, both those assholes do. “Hey..Mituna..” I کہا trying to be casual. “I’m thorry” He کہا with a frown, using one of his canines to bite his lip. “For?” آپ asked. “You know what I’m talking about!” He squealed grabbing the sides of his helmet. “Woah calm down Mituna, I was kidding, haha..thee?” I کہا trying to calm him down. “It wath one thitty joke” He کہا still losing himself. “God damn it Mituna do I need to do it again jutht to thut آپ up?!” I کہا pulling his hands away from his helmet. “Sollux?!” I heard Karkat shout. Their they were, Karkat, Kankri, Kurloz, and Gamzee, all staring at me and my older brother.

“I’m going to kill آپ Makara..” I muttered under my breath, “And then im going to kill آپ Mituna.” “What did I do grumpy?” He asked. Karkat was gone, Gamzee snickering at something. “I want to go with Kurlozth” Mituna کہا quietly. Kankri and Kurloz were still staring at us with wide eyes. “I’m so going to kill him” I کہا quietly so Mituna didn’t hear. “You can’t go with Kurlozth” I کہا to Mituna. “Why not?” Mituna asked sadly. “Gamzee told them, all of them, what happened between us as if it were on purpose” I said. “He did?!” Mituna asked rather loudly. “Yes Mituna, He did” I said. “Then…what are we going to do?” He asked looking back at Kurloz. “Go home..” I sighed walking off. Mituna didn’t follow. He looked between me and our friends, after a منٹ of thought, he walked towards me after shaking his head.

(Gamzee’s POV)

I will admit I do feel kind of bad for telling the motherfuckers what happened, Solbro had it coming, fucker knew I wasn’t good at keeping secrets, ‘specially none that good. I was on my fuckin’ tiptoes in excitement to tell everyone. “Yo, bro” I کہا shutting Kurloz’s locker in front of him. “What now Gamzee?” He signed. It took me a second, but I soon figured out what he said.”Sol al up and کہا he kissed Mituna” I said. He stared at me with dead eyes, if it could his jaw would’ve been on the damn floor. The moment he ran away with Mituna, my دل dropped on the floor. “I didn’t mean to scare a motherfucker off” I کہا furrowing my eyebrows. Kurloz shook his head and walked into the building. “Sorry, bitchtits” I کہا watching Sollux running off, Mituna behind him. I walked in the school and saw Tavros at his locker. “Hey best bro” I smiled wrapping my arms around his neck. “Hey uh..Gamzee..uh..how are you?” He asked with a smile tripping over his words. “I’m..good..just feel a little guilty bro..y’know?” I said. “No Gamzee, I don’t know” He کہا turning around to face me. “I kind of told on Sollux” I کہا rubbing the back of my head. “Was it..uh..serious?” He asked. “A lil” I replied. “Gamzee..you uh..could’ve really hurt him!” Tavros spoke loudly. “Well fucker knows I’m not good at keeping secrets!” I کہا defending myself. “Yes Gamzee..everyone uh..knows that I um..guess” Tavros said, his voice today, it sounded less confident. “Is somethin’ wrong?” I asked resting my head in the nape of Tavros’s neck.

“You’re..uh..failing your class” He said. “Which? I’m failing in a lot of wicked shit, my wicked bro” I کہا nipping at his skin. “History Gamzee, you’re um.. failing horribly at it” He managed. “I know that brother, I just ain’t up and ready for that teacher bro, ‘Mr. Makara, what is blah blah blah’ ‘Mr. Makara, please calm down your language’ ‘Mr. Makra please put some clothes on’” I کہا impersonating my teacher. “Wait what was the last one?” Tavros asked looking at me quickly. “Look I was drunk and showed up to school naked, it’s all good my wicked best bro” I کہا slinging my arm around his shoulders. “Gamzee..” He whined, “You can’t just do that!” “Look bro…I’m sorry I didn’t mean to freak the fuck out my matesprite” I apologized. “Oh ارے um…Karkat” Tavros smiled. “Shut up” Karkat کہا rather sadly walking away. “Don’t worry, کتیا, کتيا is kidding, I’ll so see what’s wrong with him” I کہا half walking, half running to catch up with my moirail. “Dude,” I کہا placing a hand on his shoulder, “what all up in your shit?” I asked. “Nothing at all Gamzee! It’s not like I found out my matesprite is in love with his brother یا anything. I’m just perfectly fine! Look at me woohoo just fine!” He کہا irritated. “Bro look, don’t go flippin’ your shit, it’ll be fine bro” I کہا with a grin.

The sound of skin on skin contact echoed through the halls, Karkat’s eyes were wide with fear, anger, and pain, his teeth clenched shut. My face stung like hell, the little one hit me and it hurt that bad? “Go to hell Gamzee Makara, go to hell!” He shouted the last part. “That’s where I plan on going” I glared at him. سے طرف کی this point, candy red tears fell from his eyes. He turned and ran the other way, dropping his things. “That wasn’t a good thing to do” A voice sounded in my head. I looked over to see Kurloz, his arms crossed, shaking his head. “He deserved it” I spat out. The pie, it must’ve worn off. There’s two مزید people i can’t stand to look at, my moirail, and my brother. سے طرف کی the time school ended, i made مزید enemies. I was two different people, on the inside my normal self, on the outside? I didn’t want to know what was on the outside of this prison. I had gone to the bathroom, to clear my head, I was feeling bad, why the fuck would i feel bad for pounding on low bloods? I looked into the mirror. I could see sane (to an extent) me, and sane me could see the insane me. Both different worlds, somehow only one person. “Oh how I love this feeling” I coul feel myself, “Oh how I hate this feeling.”

(Rose’s POV)

She kissed the tip of my nose lightly. “I’m sure they’ll find him” Kanaya کہا running her thumb over my knuckles. “Of course they will, but it is still slightly discouraging that he’s out there alone and they told us to stay here” I huffed leaning my head on her shoulder. With her I never felt anything bad, I felt comfortable, loved. “Well what if he comes back, and no one is here to greet him? یا we don’t know he is here and we keep searching?” He said. I hated when she was right, but I also loved when she was right, because when I’m not, I’m glad she is. “I know, that is a possibility.” I smiled. She smiled back, with loving eyes. A knock soon struck the door.

“John?” I asked. He was wet, covered in mud, and shaking. “Hello Rose” He sniffled from the coldness he’d been enduring. I grabbed his hand and pulled him inside. “Oh John, it’s good to see you’re okay” Kanaya smiled. “Thank you” He کہا looking at her, a smile spread on his face. “Go upstairs and take a warm shower, I’ll tell the others you’re here” I said. “Okay” He کہا walking up the stairs. “Shall we tell Jade first?” Kanaya asked. “Yes, we should” I کہا grabbing my phone.

Ring.

Ring.

“Hello?”

“Jade, John is here”

“He is?!”

“Yes, he is”

“We’re coming”

“We’re?”

“Yes we’re Dave is with me”

“Oh, very well then, come ہوم quick, and be careful”

I hung up. “It’s a good feeling” Kanaya کہا wrapping her arms around my waist pulling me close. “What is?” I asked resting my head on her shoulder. “Knowing he is home, and okay” She hummed into my ear. “Yeah, it is to be honest” I کہا dragging my fingers through some loose locks of her hair. “Shall I make some چائے for him?” Kanaya asked. “I don’t know if he likes tea” I said, my voice full of curiosity. “Well he hasn’t had my چائے yet” Kanaya smiled and walked off to the kitchen. John walked through the hall and into the bathroom. “I wonder what got into that boy..” I thought out loud walking into the باورچی خانے, باورچی خانہ with Kanaya. “You’ll have to ask him” She کہا not taking her eyes off the substance she had in front of her. “Oh, I didn’t mean to say the out loud” I کہا a small blush creeping onto my cheeks. “Don’t worry, if آپ don’t want anyone to know I’ll keep it between us, I’m not like Gamzee” She کہا looking over to me and smiled.

(KarKat’s POV)

I sat in front of my locker, looking own at my phone furiously. The theme song for Sollux, sweet little bumblebee, was playing, It was annoying now, now that Sollux has crushed every being of me. I sighed lightly and picked up. “Hello?” I asked trying to hide the sadness in my voice. “KK, I’m thorry, what آپ were told wath true, but آپ haven’t heard the whole thtory” He said. “And I don’t fucking want to know” I کہا gripping my phone tightly. “KK pleathe…lithten to m, I love آپ if I’m not with آپ I’m thinking about you, tho pleathe hear me out..” He trailed off. I was silent. “KK?” He asked. “I don’t wanna hear it” I کہا gripping my phone tighter, tight enough it should’ve broken. “Then I’m thorry, I’m thorry I thtill love you, I’m thorry آپ lotht trutht in me, ‘I’m thorry that I can’t make it up…’I’m thorry..i’m thorry…” He said. “Stop with the sorry آپ not Mituna!” I shouted. “I’m thorry, Karkat” He کہا hanging up. He کہا Karkat…not KK. “Fuuuck! Fuck fuck fuck!” I yelled slamming my fist into my locker.

That دن I walked home, alone. When I passed the Captor’s hive Mituna was on the front step, playing with the wheel of his skateboard. “Lucky bastard” I muttered starting to walk again. “Thank you!” I heard Mituna shout. I saw sollux walk out, his laptop in hand, sitting سے طرف کی his brother. I felt of twinge of pain in my heart. Why did I have to live just a block down from him? I could hear it ‘Karkat..’ him saying my name..just felt perfect. I sat on the concrete leading to my house and grabbed my phone.

‘I’m ready’. I sent a text.

About a منٹ later.

‘Ready for what? I thought آپ hated me’

I replied

‘I don’t hate you, and I’m ready for the story. The full story’

Another few منٹ passed.

‘I’ll come over and tell you’

“Why didn’t آپ just tell me that?” I asked sitting in Sollux’s lap. “You wouldn’t let me until now!” He replied. I leaned my head back on his shoulder, kissing just under his chin. “But آپ still love me” I smiled. “Of course I do” I کہا craning his neck kissing my upper lip nipping at it with his teeth. “Sollux..” I let out a moan. He smiled and wrapped his arms around me. “I love آپ KK” He smiled. “I love آپ to Sollux” I کہا in reply.
