Karl and Sapnap haven't spoken to eachother since their conversation on Wednesday. It was now Friday morning, meaning the two boys haven't spoken for a whole day, and thats the longest they've gone without talking since they met. To say Karl missed the other would be an understatement, he couldn't do anything without thinking about him. But he knew this wasn't just because he missed him, this was because he had feelings for him.

He had planned to talk to Sapnap today, because he couldn't bare being without him anymore. And also, because they had their 'date' for today. The two had planned to go to the skatepark together today do Sapnap could teach Karl how to skate.

Karl had noticed that Sapnap had a few passions, and they included Skating, art and also fire. Maybe the last one isn't as cute, but its still fucking hot. It made Karl wonder what his passions were.

As he entered the Cafeteria for breakfast, his eyes immediately met with Sapnap's but the other boy quickly turned his head away. Karl could feel his cheeks going pink as he walked over to the table where Sapnap and Dream sat.
"Hey guys.." Karl mumbled.

Yesterday he sat with Tubbo's friends as he felt as if Sapnap didn't want to see him, but surely he could forgive him now? It wasn't right for Karl to technically force Sap to tell him why he's here. And then his words got all jumbled up out of shock and then he said some things he didn't mean. The whole thing was a misunderstanding and he couldn't wait to fix it all.

"Hey karl!" Dream smiled, but he jumped awkwardly after Sapnap, not so subtly, kicked him under the table. Karl sighed before slipping onto the bench besides Sap. He placed a hand on his knee and said, "Sapnap please, i'm sorry but I miss you."

Sapnap let out a sigh as he moved his eyes up to Karl's and looked at the boy.
"its alright." He said at last, "afterall, we do have plans today don't we?"

"What plans?" Dream asked.

"None of your business idiot. Karl knows." Sapnap laughed at Dream and then turned his attention back at Karl.
"Yeah, I know." Karl smiled and rested his head on Sapnap's shoulder. "Is this okay?" he whispered to which Sapnap wordlessly placed a hand on Karl's thigh, so he took that as a sign of consent.

Dream shot Sapnap a specific look, as if to say "cute." in a sarcastic way, but Sapnap just rolled his eyes and went back on his phone. Karl closed his eyes and begun taking a small nap as he wasn't hungry, but he was still really sleepy. Dream took small bites of his buttered toast and Sapnap didn't want breakfast today as he was too tired to eat. Instead, he just scrolled through Twitter till the bell sounded.

The students all begun to stand and get their bags ready for school, Friday. Karl first had art, which he enjoyed since he sat next to Sapy. Then followed by Maths, English then German, then the day finished with history again.

"Come on Karl, wake up." Sap gently tapped Karl's chin and pulled it up to face him as Karl fluttered his eyes open. They were so close, Karl couldn't help but lean in for a kiss, completely forgetting where he was.

Sapnap quickly removed his finger and pushed the boy away as his eyes scanned the room to see if anyone had seen. Luckily, Dream had already left as did most of the other students.
"Karl!" Sapnap whisper-shouted.
"Fuck- im so sorry Sap- I just forgot and"
"Well don't forget next time! Karl someone could've seen." Sapnap was clearly frustrated, and Karl understood, but he couldnt help but feel like shit. Sapnap was SO bothered if someone saw him kissing Karl, it honestly made the boy feel so used.

When Karl didn't respond, and only picked up his bag and swung it over his shoulder wordlessly, Sapnap knew he had gone too far. He pulled Karl into a friendly hug and mumbled, "I'm sorry." into the crook of the boys neck.
"Its fine." Karl responded quietly, but Sapnap could tell he was hurt.
"Karl... I'm so sorry i'm just not ready for any PDA... After all, we don't even know what we are yet..." Sapnap apologised again, this time going into more depth.

"What do you mean? I know what I am, a human?" Karl pulled out the hug and looked at the other confused. He clearly didn't understand what Sapnap was hinting at.
"No i mean like.. us." He tried again, but Karl only tilted his head slightly. Sapnap stared at the floor as he whispered, "Like, if I am your boyfriend or not..." And Karl's eyes widened. It was clear Sapnap hated this, being so open about his feelings sometimes. He clearly felt vulnerable, and Karl couldn't blame him.

"Sap..." Karl mumbled, not being able to stop the grin from appearing on his face. "I do want you to be my boyfriend. But not yet, love, whats the rush?"
"What did you call me?" Sapnap's eyes stared into Karl's as he felt his cheeks going pink.
"What?"
"That word.."
"Love?" Karl smiled at Sapnap's reaction as he awkwardly nodded. "Do you like it?"
"Love. I love it when you call me love."
