Terezis POV

Karkat ushered me inside and shut the door as he stepped in behind me. He takes my hand and walks me slowly to what seemed like a seemingly small room. I breathed in deeply. The familiar smell of karkats kitchen wafted into my nose. I smirked a bit as he started walking again.

"OK terezi, imma walk you up these stairs, don't trip" Karkat mumbled softly, squeezing my hand,

"Ok, I'll try not to" I answer sarcastically, still a little traumatized of what just happened.

He chuckled a bit and I heard the thump of his feet as he stepped up to the first, then second, step. I followed hesitantly though I was used to sprinting up and down these steps thousands of times. But Karkat knew me well and after that encounter with the crazed juggalo, I was a little shaky. When we reached the top, he pushed me into his bathroom and told me to clean my face.

I nodded and smelt Hus annoyed blush as he shut the door. I locked it just in case and turned on the tap. I washed the supposed juggalo makeup from around my mouth, setting my red glasses on the side of the sink and rested my cane on the bath. I dried my face with a red towel. I buried my face in it and soaked in all the red, smiling like a maniac.

After a while, Karkat knocked on the door.

"Terezi are you done? Kankris gonna be back soon!"

I unlocked the door, my famous shark grin painted on my face. I could smell Karkat once again blush.

"I'm gonna take that as a yes" I cackled "ok tz, let's get some hot chocolate in you".

I cheered and took his hand, this time, leading him. Karkat didn't complain. We were lovers, matesprits.

"Do you have whipped cream and those tiny marshmallows?" I asked, tapping my hands on the kitchen counter as Karkat got out two cups and the cocoa powder.

"Check the fridge, I'll check the cupboards" he gracefully poured water into the kettle, pressed the button to boil it, then slid over to find the awesome tiny marshmallows.

I tapped my cane around and found the fridge. After feeling for the handle thing, I opened it and smelt around. Yup, whipped cream, right at the front. I took it out and took off the lid. Shutting the door I sprayed the cream into my mouth.

"Terezi!!" Karkat screeched, taking the can out of my hand.

I cackled, still with a mouth full of whipped cream "you can't trust me with that" I smirked.

He shook his head at me and went back over to the cups. I followed him, leaning against the counter, trying to swallow the large amount of cream in my mouth and on my face. Karkat sighed at me and wiped a dot of cream from my nose.

After five minutes of me complaining and more whipped cream shots, the kettle finally boiled and Karkat made the hot chocolate. He carefully applied the cream and the tiny marshmallows and drank deep from my red cup.

"Look at the time! Latula said for you to be home by like, 6" he grasped my hand "want me to walk you home?"

I nodded and he kissed my cheek. I blushd a bit and squeezed his hand.

"I'll talk to gamzee when I get back" I frowned at Karkat.

"No, I'm fine bro" I nudge him and put on a fake smile, my glasses only slightly hiding the pain in my clouded eyes.

I let go on his hand and stuffed it into my pocket, avoiding eye contact. It was like this the rest on the way home. Awkward silence except for the tapping of my cane and the light breathing.
