Ok, I'm saying this now. I have had this planned for ages. So prepare for either really long chapters, or lota of chapters. Basically, things get good. I think.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
KARL POV:
I feel a kiss on my cheek. I open my eyes blearily, and as they focus, I see Sapnap crouched next to me.
"Mornin'," I mumble,
"Morning," he smiles.
"Wait. What time is it?" I say, looking at the clock, "It's only 7? What are you doing here?"
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY KARLOS!" Quackity screams, bursting through my door.
"Meow," I respond grinning.
"Dude, seriously, stop meowing," he complains.
"Nope!" I giggle, sitting up.
"What are you guys even doing here this early?"
"We've been here since 6 helping your mom's," Sapnap shrugs.
"And your parents know?"
"I told my parents last night," Quackity answers.
"I may have texted my mom half an hour ago?" Sapnap winces.
I blink. "Uh, ok. I need to get dressed, see you downstairs?" I say.
They nod and walk out. I smile as they close the door. I'd forgotten it was my birthday today. I hurriedly get dressed, throwing on some jeans and a sweater. I walk into the kitchen, where it's been completely decorated.
"Wow," I say, taking it in. There are happy birthday banners, balloons, confetti, lights, a lot. I slide into a seat at the table, and my mom instantly swoops down and places a stack of food in front of me.
"Thanks," I say, shocked. Everyone sits down, with their own plates. We eat, talking about the plans for today. Someone gets a notification. Sapnap pulls out his phone and immediately puts it back in his pocket.
"Your mom not happy you're here?" My ma says, raising an eyebrow.
"Not at all," he says, sighing. "She needs to get a grip,"
I scrunch my nose up. His mom hates our family, how he's not been forced out of our house before, I don't know.
"At least she can't actually drag you out," I offer.
He sighs again. "I genuinely think she will one day,"
We eat in silence. As Sapnap gets up there's a knock at the door. My ma checks her watch.
"I wonder who it is. I can't be your dad, he's coming later, and your friends don't come till 3,"
She gets up and walks out to the door. I push my chair along slightly to see out. I see a woman and a man push past my mom, and come into the kitchen.
SAPNAP POV:
"Mom?" I say, shocked. She comes into the room properly, Dad standing just behind her. Karl's mom's stand together in the corner of the room.
"What are you doing here?" She hisses.
"I told you," I respond dryly.
"No, you didn't,"
"Check. I sent a text," I say, gesturing towards her purse, where she keeps her phone.
"Don't get cheeky young man. Why are you here? You know what I think of that," She casts a dirty look to Karl's parents.
"Mom, why would I care what you think of them? It's Karl's birthday, I came to help,"
She looks at Karl, who is staring blatantly at the floor.
"Don't say you're his boyfriend," she spits at Quackity, who was looking pointly out the window.
Anger rises in me. "Mom," I say warningly.
"What? What? I told you didn't I? Gay parents make gay kids,"
I freeze.
"See, if he had his father around, he'd be fine,"
Both of Karl's moms start talking angrily at her, and Karl just continues staring at the floor.
"What does that make you then?" I say quietly.
Everyone stops.
"Pardon?" My mom says, staring dead at me.
"What does that make you?" I say, louder.
She freezes. She stares at me furiously. "We'll be talking about this later. Come on, we're going home," she walks out the room, but I stay still.
"No," I say, emotionless.
"Fine. We will be talking about this when we get home young man,"
With that she turns on her heel and storms out.
I take a deep breath, and my knees shake. I stumble back, adrenaline long gone, in it's place, a crippling anxiety.
Karl and Quackity rush forward and grab hands as I sink to the floor, staring forward. I can hear them saying something, but it's muffled, like I'm underwater.
I feel them sit down either side of me, and lean their heads on my shoulders. I don't know how long we stay like that, but by the time I've gotten out of the haze, it's properly light.
"So," I say, "that was a great way to start your 18th birthday,"
Karl chuckles dryly. He stands up and offers me and Quackity hands. I pull myself up.
"Sorry about her," I say, as Karl's mom's walk in.
"Darling, don't apologise for her actions," one says, as the other folds her arms.
"Anyway. Let's move on, Karl, we have gifts in the living room,"
We all walk into the room, and sit on the 2 sofas.
QUACKITY POV:
I reach to the side of the sofa, and pull a small silver bag from it's spot. I place it on the arm rest, as Aria (Karl's mom, i just wanted names) hands him a box. He opens it, and pulls out a new mic.
"Mom! That's so cool! Thank you!" He says excitedly, looking at the mic's box.
Carol, his other mom, hands him a rectangular shaped package to him. Inside is a knitted sweater. His other gifts from family include a candle, a necklace, a book on Minecraft - the newest one, damn - a bottle of black colour change nail polish, "It turns purple!", and lights for his car. Both his moms look at me and I clear my throat.
"This is from Sapnap and me," I say, handing him the bag. He opens it, and pulls out the tissue paper, then the actual gift out. A silver ring, twisted around itself, with a small amethyst in the middle.
He gasps. "Thank you! Thank you so so much," he smiles, slipping it onto his hand. I laugh awkwardly as Sapnap just smiles. He hugs us both, excitedly. We all laugh this time.

Yay? I mean, nice ending, but the Sapnap bit... anyways, all three of their povs!
