Unrequited Love? Maybe Not. (DaveKat)

Moving in?

Dave and Karkat had been dating for around a year now. Yes, they had their ups and downs, but they were a great couple and loved each other. It wasn't exactly the type of relationship that was in the movies Karkat was obsessed with. But it was functioning for them, and it was perfect for them. The two had been checking out colleges and such for the past couple of weeks. Both of them wanted to do something with their life's, but they didn't know what. Their late night Neflix binges and kitchen raids have worked for them so far, but they were close to adulthood. Aren't adults supposed to do taxes and stuff. No one likes taxes, especially Dave. Responsibility was chasing Dave and he was running out of space to hide. The idea of moving in together was a common topic. A split rent would be easier for the both of them. Plus, with how much they are together, their houses are usually empty. There were many good choices near the college of their choice, but none was really catching their eye. House hunting was by no means fun. The countless catalogs. Prices. The fact of if it wasn't falling apart. Just by the time they had gotten to a list of top 3, the two were exhausted. Lying down on the couch, Dave pulls Karkat down onto him and he nuzzles himself into the other.

"What do you want to do?" Dave asks, breathing in the fresh sent of Karkat's hair. Karkat makes a long ugh noise before speaking.
"I KINDA BROKE MY MOTIVATION TODAY.. CAN WE JUST DO NOTHING?"
"That sounds like a great idea." Dave says as he closes his eyes and begins to fall asleep.

*le time skip*

Karkat awoke to find his human pillow was gone. Half tempted to just go back to bed, Karkat pushed himself off the couch. Walking to the kitchen, Karkat found Dave sitting in one of the chairs at their table. He walked over and wrapped his arms around the shoulders of the blonde and placed his chin on Dave's head.

"WHATCHA UP TO?"
"Rechecking locations." Dave answers as he tilts his head back to lightly kiss the troll. Karkat sat down in the other chair across from Dave.
"WHICH ONE ARE YOU THINKING OF?"
"I'm kinda thinking number 2. And you?"
"YEAH, I WAS LEANING TOWARDS THAT ONE."
"so we'll pick that one. Now come over here, you're cute when you're all adult like." Karkat walks over and Dave wraps his arms around him, pulling the smaller boy onto his lap. They stay like that for a while until they remember that the real world needs them to do stuff.

*yet another time skip*

About two weeks later, all of the plans to move were ready. The other apartments were emptied and someone else inhabited them. Dave and Karkat were packing up the last few items into the back of Dave's brother's truck. Soon enough they were at their destination. A few of their friends had volunteered to help them get their things settled in. Some were already there, John, Terezi, Jade, Sollux. They were greeted with hugs, before they got to work.

*okay last time skip*

The group of friends sat on the living room floor, drinking out of different types of cup like things. John had a bowl, Jade the coffee pot, Terezi an actual cup, Sollux a Tupperware container, Dave a coffee mug, and Karkat a small pot. Conversation rolled freely and jokes were passed. At like midnight everyone was pushed out of the house and the two finally went to sleep.
