John's POV
We were waiting for (F/n) outside the front door, school starts at 8 today and her little prank took a few minutes.. or longer cause of my breakdown.
"(F/n)! C'mon we don't got all day!!" Dave yelled and soon enough, (F/n) appeared at the front door.
"Alright! Alright, I'm here," (F/n) says and locks the door behind her.
"Let's go," I said and we set off to school.
As we were walking, (F/n) got tired halfway so I had to carry her on my back. I mentally stuck my tongue out at Sollux, Ha! Beat that, Honey fuck.
When we got to school, I didn't let (F/n) down, she didn't want me to bring her down. She would groan if I did, and I'd laugh at her.
But she eventually wanted to go down, she had to get her books and shove her bag in her locker. Also, not all of my classes are with her so it's a big upside for Sollux, I think.
Jesus, just thinking about Sollux's evil little smirk, laughing at me, I could just.. I could just-
"JOHN, OH MY GOd," Dave shakes me as I realize I was strangling (F/n).
(F/n) was already starting to gag and make choking noises, her face was turning purple as she tried to say, "J-John."
"OH MY GOD I'M SO SORRY," I jerked my hands away as soon as I realized what I was doing.
I quickly hugged her in return and she covered her mouth with one hand as I wrapped her in my arms.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm so so fucking sorry!" I quickly said, not letting go of her.
"Do you really want me to die soon, baby?" (F/n) asks me under her covered mouth.
"No, never," I say and hug her tighter, so tight that I lifted her up and she hugged my neck.
"Can we get to class now?" Sollux interrupts and I rolled my eyes, not in front of him tho.
I released (F/n) and her neck was a bit red-ish. I frowned and she just gave me a reassuring smile.
"Yeah, let's go," (F/n) said and we all split ways.
Reader's POV
"Kaaaaaaarkless~" You coo as you pet the nubby horned troll's hair.
He smacked your hand away from his head, his grumpy expression still on his face.
"Why have you been avoiding me the past week?" You frowned and he grunted, not answering you.
"Daaaaaaamn!" You groaned and he glanced at you but immediately looked away.
You were doing this in your free period, sadly, Karkat was the only one you recognized in this period, but it's beteer than nothing right?
Karkat mumbled something and glared at you. You looked at him, curious as you still try to let him spill the damn beans.
You hugged him and he stiffened, "(F-F/n).. get the fuck off," He pushed you but you gripped tighter.
"No," Was all you said.
"Oh my God," He groaned.
You nuzzled into his shoulder and his body suddenly softened, he blushed but you obviously didn't notice.
He put his arms around you, giving up on pushing you away. "(F/n), I'm sorry for avoiding you.." He mumbled.
"What was that?" You ask, a small smile tugging at your lips.
He pushed you away so he could see your face, and held you by the waist, you still holding his shoulders.
"I'm. I'm fucking sorry, you little.." He said and stared at you for a sec, then pecked you on the lips.
Your eyes widened but you smiled into the short and sweet peck.
"Shit! Sorry! Fuck, damn Karkat what were you-" He blabbed but you cut him off with a, "I forgive you, Karkles."
He paused as a blush brushed along his face, his hands still on your waist and all.
You gave him a friendly kiss on the cheek, friendly. And he was taken aback, but a small, really really small, smile curved the ends of his lips.
He gave you a hug and said, "I missed you, You ignorant dense shitsponge of a motherfucker."
You smiled, a grin that could symbolize sweetness, "I missed you more, You.. oh fuck it."
//time skip//
You were walking home from school, with John, Dave, Sollux, and this time Karkat came along as well.
As you opened the door to your place, your phone buzzed.
"Whoop, gotta check this, you guys go head upstairs," You said and they nodded as they made their way up to your room.
You plopped on the couch, unlocking your phone. "Hmm," You hummed as you read the message.
It was from your mother, it read:
Dearest baby,
I'm sorry, we won't be coming home tomorrow. Unfortunately, your poor father got into a very bad accident, which was a car accident, He survived but sadly, his legs didn't.
We have to stay in this country for his medicine and hospitalizations, it may take long, longer than a month. So we're sending you money and food in one huge package.
I'm so sorry, honey. I really am, please pray for your father's fast recovery, okay?
Take care of yourself, and don't mess up the house.
I love you,
Mommy.
You reread it again, mostly the line 'car accident'. You couldn't believe what you just read, your father, Your very own father.. can't walk, can't run, can't stand.. can't.. come back home.
Your eyes started to sting, you pressed your hands on your face as you quietly sobbed to yourself over this.
Your sobs started getting louder and louder by the minute and soon you started sounding like a wheezing walrus with asthma, crying.
jk jk. im sorry i ruined the moment, forget i said that huehue.
You changed your position from sitting properly to hugging your knees, crying like crazy as your sobs were now audible.
The tears were overflowing, you couldn't stop crying. Your phone was now on the floor, the message still seen on the screen.
You then heard a creaking noise, meaning a door opened. "(F/n)? You're taking real long to- oh my God are you alright?" You heard a voice call out, recognizing it as Sollux's.
"N-no.." You said, it coming out as a whimper followed by more sobs.
The footsteps came closer to you as you soon felt arms snake around under your arms, carrying you.
You wrapped your arms around your moirail's neck as he placed his arms under your butt to keep you up.
"Shh.. It's alright, what happened?" Sollux cooed and you cried into his shoulder, pointing at your phone.
He noticed and picked up your phone, you still carried in his arms as he read the message.
"O-oh my God.. I'm so.. so so sorry, Honey bee, don't cry please," He soothed you as you started crying into his shoulder even more.
